description: In examining economic performance of dairy sector, technical and economic efficiency are the most frequently applied concepts. This research is based on data for 20 dairy farms across Province of Vojvodina in 2003. Technical efficiency is measured in terms of cows per worker equivalent (2.400 hours per year). Economic efficiency is measured in terms of cost efficiency by means of cost control ratios, which are separately calculated for: feed, labor and total cost. Dairy farms with 40 and more cows in herd are more technically efficient then smaller farms. Results showed that only two of twenty farms were economically inefficient. Cost control ratios reveal a farm’s ability to convert input cost into dairy sales. Farms with bigger herd size, more then 30 cows, have in average significantly smaller ratio and therefore, the more cost efficient dairy operations.

description: We present new optical and near-IR spectroscopy as well as new high dynamic range, arcsecond-resolution VLA radio maps of BL Lacs from the complete radio-selected "1 Jansky" (1Jy) sample (RBLs) for which such data were not previously available. Unlike BL Lacs from the complete X-ray-selected Einstein Medium Sensitivity Survey (EMSS) sample (XBLs), most RBLs possess weak but moderately luminous emission lines. And whereas nearly all XBLs have extended power levels consistent with FR-1s, more than half of the RBLs have extended radio power levels too luminous to be beamed FR-1 radio galaxies. In fact, we find evidence for and examples of three distinct mechanisms for creating the BL Lac phenomenon in the 1Jy sample: beamed FR-1s, beamed FR-2s and possibly a few gravitationally-lensed quasars. The v/v_max determined for the 1Jy sample is 0.614+/-0.047, which is markedly different from the negative evolution seen in the EMSS and other XBL samples. A correlation between logarithmic X-ray to radio flux ratio and v/v_max is observed across the EMSS and 1Jy samples, from negative evolution in the more extreme XBLs to positive evolution in the more extreme RBLs. There is evidence that the selection criteria chosen by Stickel et al. eliminates some BL Lac objects from the 1Jy sample, although how many is unknown. And several objects currently in the sample have exhibited strong emission lines in one or more epochs, suggesting they should be reclassified as FSRQs. However these selection effects cannot account for the observed discrepancy in XBL and RBL properties. From these observational properties we conclude that RBLs and XBLs cannot be related by viewing angle alone, and that RBLs are more closely related to FSRQs.

description: Head and neck injuries are quite common in any large-scale man-made accident, pet attacks or as a result of catatrauma, as a result of which an emergency surgical intervention is carried out for this pathology. In the 2-clinic of SamMI in the period from 2013 to 2020, 273 patients with various injuries of the head and neck were treated. In more than half of the cases, the cause of the injury was a fall from a height and the collapse of objects, materials and earth on the victim-156 (57.1%), slightly less often injuries occurred due to contact with animals – 45 (16.5%) or exposure to various moving, flying objects and parts – 44 (16.0%). It should be noted that in 28 (10.2%) the cause of the injury was a traffic accident. Of all 273 patients, 74 (27.0%) needed outpatient care, and after initial surgical treatment, they were discharged home under the supervision of a pediatric surgeon at the place of residence. In other cases, the victims, taking into account the severity of the injury, were hospitalized. Combined trauma was diagnosed in 55 (20.1%) cases. In this category of patients, treatment tactics were carried out jointly with specialists of related specialties: neurosurgeons, traumatologists, neuropathologists. Mortality in this category of patients was noted in 14 (5.1%)

description: Soil and crop management practices may have impacts on the natural environment and induce changes in soil. A fundamental task of soil monitoring systems is to serve as a tool for land management in sense of sustainable development. In spite of the fact, that this task is common to all countries nowadays, there are still differences in metodologies and indicators of soil quality. Diversity of soil types may hinder identification of soil quality factors and indicators at a national scale. Assessment of soil quality is the basis for assessing sustainable soil management in this century. The objective of this paper was to identifay some soil physical, chemical and biological indicators for soil quality monitoring in sustainable agricultural management at national level. In many ways, soil quality is one measure of ecosystem health. Conserving soil quqlity means protecting the full range of ecological services high-quality soils provide.

description: Thermal radiation is an important sub-process in high-pressure entrained flow gasification. However, it was seldom investigated in previous CFD studies and was usually accounted for by common radiation and simplified gas radiation property models. Therefore, comparative radiation simulations were performed within this work and with respect to the bioliq Entrained Flow Gasifier (bioliq EFG) of Karlsruhe Institute of Technology. The bioliq EFG operates at 40 bar and has got, contrary to other entrained flow gasifiers, a segmental cooling screen enabling local heat flux analysis. This feature allows a unique comparison of experimental with numerical results; the latter were obtained by performing one-dimensional radiation and two-dimensional CFD simulations. The CFD simulations were carried out to investigate the performance of simplified gas radiation property models incorporated within the CFD model of the bioliq EFG, while the one-dimensional radiation simulations have enabled further comparison with the most recent developments for gas radiation property models. This paper reports on the simulation results and provides recommendations for the selection of gas radiation property models for CFD simulations with the discrete ordinates model and with emphasis on radiative heat transfer at high-pressure conditions. In case of largely isothermal and homogeneous conditions with exemption of the flame zone, weighted-sum-of-grey-gas models can be recommended to be used with the discrete ordinates model if user-defined weighted-sum-of-grey-gas models (i) are obtained from accurate line-by-line calculations, (ii) are based on conditions prevailing in the entrained flow gasifier and (iii) are applied using the non-grey or band approach. In absence of such weighted-sum-of-grey-gas models, spectral-line-weighted-sum-of-grey-gas models based on the latest tabulation can be used instead. In addition to that, soot radiation becomes important at soot volume fractions above $10^{-6}$ and should be accounted for if such conditions are expected in entrained flow gasifiers.

description: Fertilization, as agro-technical step, is irreplaceable in the process of achieving high yields. However, in the aim of sustainable agriculture and rural settlements, it is necessary to establish which systems of fertilization in the function of protecting biodiversity could be implemented in maize production. That is why an experiment was established with different systems and ways of fertilization and during this test hybrid ZP 704 was grown. There was implemented dressing with mineral nitrogen with two doses (125 and 270 kg N/ha), to ploughed maize (in amount of 8 000 kg/ha) as an organic matter and mix of mineral nitrogen (both of dose) and ploughed maize. Also, in the part of the test in which inoculation seeds before sewing was implements, as liquid inoculums there are composite of effective race next class: Azotobacter chroococcum, Azospirillum lipoferum, Klebsiella planticola, Beijerinckia Derx. They diagnosed that search parameters (amount of organic substance, the level transformation of organic substance in the organic substance of the soil, index of total nitrogen and yield seed of maize, were increase quite in the different combination ploughed maize and mineral nitrogen). In process of inoculation of seeds, searched elements of the essential mineral elements of soil (total amount of micro-organisms, bacterium scale from period cycle nitrogenous) in minimum and middle dose application mineral nitrogenous had maximum values. It is concluded that for protection of biodiversity and economical organic food production, application mineral dressing could be correct with plough organic substance or with implement diazotrof-a, and in that occasion the amount of mineral nitrogen could be reduce for 40 kg/ha.

description: Long-slit Keck II, 4m Kitt Peak, and 4.5m MMT spectrophotometric data are used to investigate the stellar population and the evolutionary status of I Zw 18C, the faint C component of the nearby blue compact dwarf galaxy I Zw 18. Hydrogen H$α$ and H$β$ emission lines are detected in the spectra of I Zw 18C, implying that ionizing massive stars are present. High signal-to-noise Keck II spectra of different regions in I Zw 18C reveal H$γ$, H$δ$ and higher order hydrogen lines in absorption. Several techniques are used to constrain the age of the stellar population in I Zw 18C. Ages derived from two different methods, one based on the equivalent widths of the H$α$, H$β$ emission lines and the other on H$γ$, H$δ$ absorption lines are consistent with a 15 Myr instantaneous burst model. We find that a small extinction in the range $A_V$ = 0.20 -- 0.65 mag is needed to fit the observed spectral energy distribution of I Zw 18C with that model. In the case of constant star formation, all observed properties are consistent with stars forming continuously between ~ 10 Myr and < 100 Myr ago. We use all available observational constraints for I Zw 18C, including those obtained from Hubble Space Telescope color-magnitude diagrams, to argue that the distance to I Zw 18 should be as high as ~ 15 Mpc. The deep spectra also reveal extended ionized gas emission around I Zw 18. H$α$ emission is detected as far as 30" from it. To a B surface brightness limit of ~ 27 mag arcsec$^{-2}$ we find no observational evidence for extended stellar emission in the outermost regions, at distances > 15" from I Zw 18.

description: A novel macroscopically degenerate state called kagome ice, which was recently found in a spin ice compound Dy2Ti2O7 in a magnetic field applied along the [111] direction of the cubic unit cell, is studied by specific heat measurements. The residual entropy of the kagome ice is estimated to be 0.65 J/K mol Dy, which is nearly 40 % of that for the tetrahedral spin ice obtained in a zero field (1.68 J/K mol Dy) and is in good agreement with a theoretical prediction. It is also reported that the kagom ice state, which is stabilized at a range of magnetic field of 0.3 ~ 0.6 T, is a 'gas' phase and condenses into a 'liquid' phase with nearly zero entropy at a critical field of 1 T.

Star Formation in the Tails of Ram-Pressure stripped galaxies from the GASP MUSE Large Programme

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2021

description: GASP (GAs Stripping Phenomena in galaxies with MUSE) is a survey of galaxies at z=~0.05 located in different environments, from the field to clusters. The project aims to clarify how, where and why the gas removal occurs. The MUSE observations revealed ram pressure stripped Hαemitting extraplanar tails in most of the stripping cluster candidates. All galaxies present bright Hα clumps in their tails as well as interclump regions of more diffuse emission. Using diagnostic BPT diagrams we conclude that in-situ SF is the dominant gas ionization mechanism in all the tails. I will summarize the main results on the star formation process in the tails, and on how the star formation rate depends on the properties of the galaxy and of its environment; I will also present some of the questions our work has opened and that will be addressed by using the GASP MUSE data and its multiwavelength ongoing follow-ups, including an ongoing observing programme with HST.

description: Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) have shown state of the art results for speech recognition, natural language processing, image captioning and video summarizing applications. Many of these applications run on low-power platforms, so their energy efficiency is extremely important. We observed that cache-oblivious RNN scheduling during inference typically results in 30-50x more data transferred on and off the CPU than the application's working set size. This can potentially impact its energy efficiency. This paper presents a new metric called Data Reuse Efficiency to gauge the RNN scheduling efficiency of a platform and shows the factors that influence the DRE value. Additionally, this paper discusses an optimization to improve reuse in RNNs and highlights the positive impact of this optimization on the total amount of memory read from or written to the memory controller (and, hence, the DRE value) during the execution of an RNN application for a mobile SoC.

description: A sample of 25 IR-bright planetary nebulae (PNe) towards the Galactic bulge is analysed through 8-13um spectroscopy. The classification of the warm-dust emission features provides a measure of the C/O chemical balance, and represents the first C/O estimates for bulge PNe. Out of 13 PNe with identified dust types, 4 PNe have emission features associated with C-based grains, while the remaining 9 have O-rich dust signatures. The low fraction of C-rich PNe, <30%, contrasts with that for local PNe, around 80%, although it follows the trend for a decreasing frequency of C-rich PNe with galactocentric radius (paper~I). We investigate whether the PNe discussed here are linked to the bulge stellar population (similar to type~IV, or halo, PNe) or the inner Galactic disk (a young and super-metal-rich population). Although 60% of the PNe with warm dust are convincing bulge members, none of the C-rich PNe satisfy our criteria, and they are probably linked to the inner Galactic disk. In the framework of single star evolution, the available information on bulge PNe points towards a progenitor population similar in age to that of local PNe (type I PNe are found in similar proportions), but super-metal-rich (to account for the scarcity of C-rich objects). Yet the metallicities of bulge PNe, as inferred from [O/H], fail to reach the required values - except for the C-rich objects. It is likely that the sample discussed here is derived from a mixed disk/bulge progenitor population and dominated by type IV PNe, as suggested by Peimbert (1992). The much higher fraction of O-rich PNe in this sample than in the solar neighbourhood should result in a proportionally greater injection of silicate grains into the inner Galactic medium.

description: Nitrogen is one of the most important nutrient elements used all over the world with the aim of increasing and sustainability of the production of the agricultural crops. During the 'Green Revolution', nitrogen fertilisers contributed to the increase and maintenance of crop yields under different agroecosystems. Nitrogen was a key of economic variability of the agricultural production worldwide, and in this way, it was globally a key of food. On the other hand, anthropogenic influences (fossil fuel combustion) contributed to a greater release of gases, such as carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxides, resulting in global warming of our planet. The application of organic and mineral nitrogen fertilisers can cause losses of nitrogen in gaseous states, as well as, nitrite leaching. Therefore, nitrite contamination of drinking water is already a serious problem in many parts of the world. New technologies in the application of nitrogen fertilisers and crop growing, such as: a precise technique of the plant production, quick tests (in situ) for analysing concentrations of nitrite nitrogen in the plant tissues, rapid tests for chlorophyll determination, the use of computer models of simulation for the improvement of production planning and organising - can affect the increase of the average efficiency in the nitrogen utilisation under different agroecosystems by more than 50%. This paper presents the modes and possibilities of the rational application of nitrogen fertilisers in the seed maize production, which is specific in many of its parameters, as a necessary procedure to maintain a safe agroecosystem.

description: This case study discusses the approaches used by the agricultural research system of Swaziland to obtain and manage scientific information. Information access is reviewed in relation to the demand for information by the research system, the sources of information that it has access to, and the mechanisms used to actually obtain and manage the information. One thing that has a significant influence on the demand for information is the existence of two main types of agricultural production systems, which rather neatly divides the agencies conducting agricultural research Into two main groups. Channels for gaining access to Information are similarly divided - the private sector relies on its own personal and commercial sources, while the public sector is linked more closely to formal information mechanisms such as libraries and research networks. One significant conclusion of the paper relates to the various roles and functions that information mechanisms have. Often the different mechanisms compete to deliver the same information, and an information system based on several mechanisms, each delivering different information, is advocated. In this case, libraries need to assess the information available through research networks and other mechanisms, and then deliver the information that these other mechanisms cannot provide. Access to locally produced information is an area where libraries might have a comparative advantage. Other significant factors that are discussed include the regional context for information services, participation in information networks, collaboration at the national level, the role of agricultural development projects, and the need for trained information personnel.

description: We estimated the import and export elasticities of Pakistan trade with traditional trade partners and some Asian countries to see the dynamics of Pakistan trade from 1973 to 2008. OLS results suggest that income is the principal determinant of exports and imports. Pakistan exports are cointegrated with Japan and USA while the imports are cointegrated with UAE and USA. Pakistan imports and exports are cointegrated with Bangladesh and Sri Lanka but not with India and China. Income and exchange rate are both important determinants of foreign trade. Continuing its trade with traditional partners and making efforts for greater market access to USA and EU, Pakistan should make efforts to increase its trade with Asian countries notably China and India because both are fast growing economies and have huge market.

description: A new class of artificial atoms, such as synthetic nanocrystals or vortices in superconductors, naturally self-assemble into ordered arrays. This property makes them applicable to the design of novel solids, and devices whose properties often depend on the response of such assemblies to the action of external forces. Here we study the transport properties of a vortex array in the Corbino disk geometry by numerical simulations. In response to an injected current in the superconductor, the global resistance associated to vortex motion exhibits sharp jumps at two threshold current values. The first corresponds to a tearing transition from rigid rotation to plastic flow, due to the reiterative nucleation around the disk center of neutral dislocation pairs that unbind and glide across the entire disk. After the second jump, we observe a smoother plastic phase proceeding from the coherent glide of a larger number of dislocations arranged into radial grain boundaries.

description: In times of increasing health care expenditure and insufficient cover provided by publicly financed health systems additional, alternative methods of health care financing become more and more considerable. The purpose of the paper is to present the concept of Medical Savings Accounts (MSAs) and possibilities of their application in the health care systems of European countries. First, the author describes the idea of MSAs and reviews positive and negative findings about the effects of implementing this method into the health systems. Next, two main approaches to the application of MSAs in health care financing are considered. In the last part of the paper, the possibilities of introducing MSAs into health care systems in European countries are discussed. The author takes into consideration the existing health care financing conditions and other specific institutional, socio-economic and cultural factors as the main determinants for successful designing and implementation of the MSA scheme in a given country.

description: Recurrent neural networks are good at solving prediction problems. However, finding a network that suits a problem is quite hard because their performance is strongly affected by their architecture configuration. Automatic architecture optimization methods help to find the most suitable design, but they are not extensively adopted because of their high computational cost. In this work, we introduce the Random Error Sampling-based Neuroevolution (RESN), an evolutionary algorithm that uses the mean absolute error random sampling, a training-free approach to predict the expected performance of an artificial neural network, to optimize the architecture of a network. We empirically validate our proposal on three prediction problems, and compare our technique to training-based architecture optimization techniques and to neuroevolutionary approaches. Our findings show that we can achieve state-of-the-art error performance and that we reduce by half the time needed to perform the optimization.

description: This paper assumes that managers, investors, or both behave irrationally. In addition, even though scholars have investigated behavioral irrationality from three angles, investor sentiment, investor biases and managerial biases, we focus on the relationship between one of the managerial biases, overconfidence and dividend policy. Previous research investigating the relationship between overconfidence and financial decisions has studied investment, financing decisions and firm values. However, there are only a few exceptions to examine how a managerial emotional bias (optimism, loss aversion and overconfidence) affects dividend policies. This stream of research contends whether to distribute dividends or not depends on how managers perceive of the company’s future. We will use Bayesian network method to examine this relation. Emotional bias has been measured by means of a questionnaire comprising several items. As for the selected sample, it has been composed of some 100 Tunisian executives. Our results have revealed that leader affected by behavioral biases (optimism, loss aversion, and overconfidence) adjusts its dividend policy choices based on their ability to assess alternatives (optimism and overconfidence) and risk perception (loss aversion) to create of shareholder value and ensure its place at the head of the management team.
Stability of the coexistence phase of chiral superconductivity and noncollinear spin ordering with a nontrivial topology and strong electron correlations

description: We show that the quantum charge and spin fluctuations, while sufficiently renormalizing the magnetic order parameter, do not destroy the coexistence phase of chiral d+id superconductivity and 120-degree spin ordering in a strongly correlated 2D system with a triangular lattice. The nontrivial topology characterized by the topological invariant N3 is also preserved. It is shown that the Majorana mode exist among edge states in the topologically nontrivial phase. The spatial structure of such mode is determined. The spin and charge fluctuations shift the critical values of electron density at which quantum topological transitions occur. Increasing intersite Coulomb repulsion leads to decrease in the number of the topological transitions.

description: This paper presents statistics of the line-doubling phenomenon in a sample of 81 long-period variable (LPV) stars of various periods, spectral types and brightness ranges. When correlated with a mask mimicking a K0III spectrum, 54% of the sample stars clearly showed a double-peaked cross-correlation profile around maximum light, reflecting double absorption lines. Several pieces of evidence are presented that point towards the double absorption lines as being caused by the propagation of a shock wave through the photosphere. The observation of the Balmer lines appearing in emission around maximum light in these stars corroborates the presence of a shock wave. The observed velocity discontinuities, ranging between 10 and 25 km/s, are not correlated with the brightness ranges. A comparison with the center-of-mass (COM) velocity obtained from submm CO lines originating in the circumstellar envelope reveals that the median velocity between the red and blue peaks is blueshifted with respect to the COM velocity, as expected if the shock moves upwards.

description: The article deals with the issues of financing of domestic health care. In the context of historical development, the way of formation and development of public health in Russia is shown. Based on statistical data, it is established that the situation with the financing of health care does not meet all its needs, and the annual cost of medicine per person is twice less than in the least developed European countries. A comparative analysis of the ways of financing health care in European countries is carried out, as a result of which the positive and negative aspects are highlighted in the budget model of health care, inherent in England and Sweden, and the insurance model used in most other European countries. Separately, the features of financing Russian medicine, which is expressed in the multi-channel budget-insurance model, are considered. The disadvantages of this type of financing are noted. Data on the lack of investments in healthcare, as well as the reasons for this, are presented. Investment risks in the healthcare sector are highlighted.
