description: Diffuse radio emission associated with the intra-cluster medium (ICM) is observed in a number of merging galaxy clusters. It is currently believed that in mergers a fraction of the kinetic energy is channeled into non-thermal components, such as turbulence, cosmic rays and magnetic fields, that may lead to the formation of giant synchrotron sources in the ICM. Studying merging galaxy clusters in different evolutionary phases is fundamental to understanding the origin of radio emission in the ICM. We observed the nearby galaxy cluster pair RXC J1825.3+3026 ($z\sim0.065$) and CIZA J1824.1+3029 ($z\sim0.071$) at 120-168 MHz with the LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR) and made use of a deep (240 ks) XMM-Newton dataset to study the non-thermal and thermal properties of the system. RXC J1825.3+3026 is in a complex dynamical state, with a primary on-going merger in the E-W direction and a secondary later stage merger with a group of galaxies in the SW, while CIZA J1824.1+3029 is dynamically relaxed. These two clusters are in a pre-merger phase. We report the discovery of a Mpc-scale radio halo with a low surface brightness extension in RXC J1825.3+3026 that follows the X-ray emission from the cluster center to the remnant of a galaxy group in the SW. This is among the least massive systems and the faintest giant radio halo known to date. Contrary to this, no diffuse radio emission is observed in CIZA J1824.1+3029 nor in the region between the pre-merger cluster pair. The power spectra of the X-ray surface brightness fluctuations of RXC J1825.3+3026 and CIZA J1824.1+3029 are in agreement with the findings for clusters exhibiting a radio halo and the ones where no radio emission has been detected, respectively. We provide quantitative support to the idea that cluster mergers play a crucial role in the generation of non-thermal components in the ICM.

description: This study examined the relationship between social capital and household welfare. Primary data was collected from 300 households in the rural southwest of Nigeria. The age of respondents; sex, education, marital status, household size and farming status make a significant contribution to changes in household welfare. Also, the decision making index and meeting attendance are statistically significant and both are positively and negatively related to household welfare, respectively. Results of the two stage least square reveal the exogeneity of social capital. However, the use of the control function model indicates that social capital is truly endogenous to household welfare due to non-linear interactions between social capital and unobservable variables.

description: A wide variety of farm household models have provided a valuable theoretical basis for empirical and conceptual analysis of interactions between production and consumption resource allocations of poor rural people. A weakness of common applications of many such models, and unfortunately of much analysis, is failure to routinely also recognise and adequately describe the fundamental seasonal nature of most agricultural production and the effects of pervasive seasonal finance market failures on poor rural people’s behaviour and welfare. This is despite considerable theoretical work demonstrating the importance of seasonal financial market failures as constraints on agricultural development. A general model recognising this is presented, with graphical applications showing the potential importance of seasonal finance constraints on farm households’ behaviour and welfare. Formal methods for allowing for the effects of seasonal finance constraints on household responses to policy and other change should be standard tools used by applied rural development economists.

description: Libraries are continually evolving to support the processes of academic and other research, which increasingly involves use of technology and occurs in digital environments. Does this “inside-out library” signal a need for librarians supporting researchers to also evolve their digital capabilities? What skills do inside-out librarians require, how can they acquire these skills and how much discipline specific knowledge do they need to be effective? At the 2019 eResearchNZ conference a group of librarians discussed these and other related questions. The authors used an informal focus-group methodology to capture the major themes of the discussion, and the results indicate that there is no one right answer. Instead there are many different pathways and opportunities for librarians in the inside-out library, and personal attributes can play as much a role in being successful as specific qualifications and skill sets.

description: We present a new age-dating technique that combines gyrochronology with isochrone fitting to infer ages for FGKM main-sequence and subgiant field stars. Gyrochronology and isochrone fitting are each capable of providing relatively precise ages for field stars in certain areas of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram: gyrochronology works optimally for cool main-sequence stars, and isochrone fitting can provide precise ages for stars near the main-sequence turnoff. Combined, these two age-dating techniques can provide precise and accurate ages for a broader range of stellar masses and evolutionary stages than either method used in isolation. We demonstrate that the position of a star on the Hertzsprung- Russell or color-magnitude diagram can be combined with its rotation period to infer a precise age via both isochrone fitting and gyrochronology simultaneously. We show that incorporating rotation periods with 5% uncertainties into stellar evolution models improves age precision for FGK stars on the main sequence, and can, on average, provide age estimates up to three times more precise than isochrone fitting alone. In addition, we provide a new gyrochronology relation, calibrated to the Praesepe cluster and the Sun, that includes a variance model to capture the rotational behavior of stars whose rotation periods do not lengthen with the square-root of time, and parts of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram where gyrochronology has not been calibrated. This publication is accompanied by an open source Python package, stardate, for inferring the ages of main-sequence and subgiant FGKM stars from rotation periods, spectroscopic parameters and/or apparent magnitudes and parallaxes.

description: An ex post measure of risk reduction is commonly used in the literature to predict the potential reduction of farmers’ yield risk due to weather-based index insurance and area-yield crop insurance. In this paper, we evaluate the predictive power of the ex post risk reduction for different weather-based index as well as area-yield index and farm yield insurance contracts. We compute an empirical benchmark of potential risk reduction against which the ex post estimates are evaluated by distinguishing between a training data set and a test data set. Based on data for 40 wheat producers in Kazakhstan, our empirical analysis shows that the ex post approach can overestimate farmers’ future risk reductions due to crop insurance schemes based on weather indexes or area yields. Therefore, we argue that the decision about the market launch of index-based insurance instruments should be based on more than just the common ex post approach.

description: Geographical indications (GIs) have gained increasing interest since their protection has been ensured multilaterally under the TRIPS Agreement of the World Trade Organization (WTO). Thung Kula Rong-Hai Thai Hom Mali Rice (TKR) is the first officially registered GI Jasmine rice in Thailand. This paper aims at identifying factors that predict the behavior of Thai Jasmine rice farm households in adopting GI certification. Primary data of 370 Thai Jasmine rice farm households were collected through a formal survey in two districts of the Thung Kula Rong-Hai (TKRH) area. The results of the logistic regression analysis indicate that social and human capital variables significantly influence the decision of Thai Jasmine rice farm households to adopt GI certification.

description: Stochastic production frontiers of irrigated and rain-fed smallholder agriculture in Tigray, Ethiopia, were fitted to a random sample of irrigated and rain-fed plots to compare their technical efficiencies. Propensity Score Matching Method was applied to select rain-fed plots with comparable bio-physical attributes to irrigated plots that might have blurred the true efficiency differences between the two systems. Irrigated farms are on a higher production frontier with significant inefficiencies, while rain-fed farms are on a lower production frontier with high efficiency levels. Thus, there is considerable potential for increasing outputs by improving the efficiency of irrigation farms. Rain-fed systems need interventions in soil moisture management to move to a higher production frontier. The study underlines the need for correcting the sequence and mix of yield boosting technologies such as irrigation, improved seeds, and fertilizer that are promoted in arid environments such as Tigray. We recommend that water control must precede or implemented in tandem with improved seeds and fertilizer technologies. Unless soil moisture is improved by investing in moisture improving technologies, the use of seed and fertilizer in moisture stressed areas such as Tigray may have adverse effects.

description: Multilayered graphene-based nanoporous membranes with electrolyte incorporated between individual sheets is a unique nano-heterostructure system in which nanoconfined electrons in graphene and ions confined in between sheets are intimately coupled throughout the entire membrane. In contrast to the general notion that the electrolyte gating is unlikely to appear in multilayered graphene stacks, it is demonstrated in this work that the electrolyte gating effect in monolayer graphene can be transferred to its corresponding multilayered porous membranes. This gating effect presented on each individual graphene sheets through electrolyte confined in nanopores provides a real-time, electrical approach for probing the complex dynamics of nanoconfined electrical double layer. This has enabled the observation of the ionic memory effect in supercapacitors and produces new insights into the charging dynamics of supercapacitors. Such discoveries may stimulate the design of novel nanoionic devices.

description: Using density-functional theory calculations, we investigate the addition energy (AE) of quantum dots formed of fullerenes or closed single-wall carbon nanotubes. We focus on the connection between symmetry and oscillations in the AE spectrum. In the highly symmetric fullerenes the oscillation period is large because of the large level degeneracy and Hund's rule. For long nanotubes, the AE oscillation is fourfold. Adding defects destroys the spatial symmetry of the tubes, leaving only spin degeneracy; correspondingly, the fourfold behavior is destroyed, leaving an even/odd behavior which is quite robust. We use our symmetry results to explain recent experiments. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 91, 116803 (2003).]

description: High-density cusps of compact remnants are expected to form around supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in galactic nuclei via dynamical friction and two-body relaxation. Due to the high density, binaries in orbit around the SMBH can frequently undergo close encounters with compact remnants from the cusp. This can affect the gravitational wave merger rate of compact binaries in galactic nuclei. We investigated this process by means of high accuracy few-body simulations, performed with a novel Monte Carlo approach. We find that, around a SgrA*-like SMBH, three-body encounters increase the number of mergers by a factor of 3. This occurs because close encounters can reorient binaries with respect to their orbital plane around the SMBH, increasing the number of Kozai-Lidov induced mergers. We obtain a binary black hole merger rate of 1.6x10^-6/yr per Milky Way-like nucleus.

description: The Cartagena Declaration (1984) was created to address the forced migration crisis of U people fleeing non-democratic and dictatorial regimes in the Americas. While being innovative and having a humanitarian “spirit”, the Declaration includes the existence of a massive violation of human rights between the motives for recognition of refugee status, which goes beyond the classic motives of persecution presented on the 1951 Convention. Thus, the Declaration created a shared refugee definition in the region and influenced changes in the way countries acted towards migratory flows. Therefore, in order to contribute to the current debate on migratory movements, this paper conducts a comparative study and analyses refugee legislation and policies in Brazil and Ecuador from the standpoint of the guidelines brought by the regional instrument.

description: Rapid growth of mobile telephony and the introduction of mobile-enabled information services provide ways to improve information dissemination to the knowledge intensive agriculture sector and also helps to overcome information asymmetry existing among the group of farmers. It also helps, at least partially, to bridge the gap between the availability and delivery of agricultural inputs and agriculture infrastructure. This paper explores further on this topic and provides evidence to show how mobile phones and mobile-enabled agricultural services have impacted the farmers. As mobile penetration continues to increase among farming communities and information services and to adapt and proliferate, the scope exists for a much greater rural productivity impact in the future. To leverage the full potential of information dissemination enabled by mobile telephony along with supporting infrastructure and capacity building amongst farmers it is essential to ensure the quality of information, its timeliness and trustworthiness.

description: Temperature gradient through cylindrical Re furnace set in an octahedral assembly for Kawai-type of the multi-anvil high pressure apparatus was examined at a central temperature of 2500°C and pressures of 10.4-12.4 GPa, based on coesite-stishovite phase boundary in SiO2. The axial temperature showed a parabolic curve, which is approximated by a quadratic function between the temperature differences from the temperature at the hotspot and the distance from the sample center, equivalent to the hotspot, ΔT = −258.7L2 −16.8L (r2 = 0.99), where ΔT (°C) is the temperature difference between the center and at a point, and L (mm) is the distance of the point from the center. The estimated temperature gradient is around 260°C/mm at 2500°C. Here, the factors that influence the temperature gradient, such as the sample temperature, the shape and the material of the furnace, and the design of the cell assembly, are also discussed.

description: This paper argues that adopting information and communication technology (ICT) in agricultural extension is crucial in facilitating farmers to access new markets for their produce and acquire information on the current trend in agriculture. Agricultural extension has been the main source of information for small scale farmers but it has been faced with setbacks mainly due to past top down extension approaches and lack of adequate resources for field extension agents at the ground level. The extension system does not have updated and a modern mechanism to acquire and deliver information to farmers before it becomes obsolete. Despite these setbacks, the role of both public and private extension in agricultural and rural development in Kenya cannot be ignored. Public extension system has been offering free services to about 70% of the country’s poorest population. This paper, therefore, suggests the need to integrate ICT in agricultural extension to enable producers, extension providers and other stakeholders to access updated information and become competitive.

description: From recent research findings, toxic compounds have sparked a lot of interest in theoretical and experimental research as a result of their great potential for harvesting and generating energy from multiple sources at a higher power conversion rate. Despite their great energy production, their hazardous nature limits their practical usage. To overcome this issue, toxic materials can be replaced with more environmentally friendly alternatives, such as germanate glass, even if their power conversion rate is limited. In this article, the adjustment of properties that thereby improves the efficiency of the proposed material, i.e. germanate glass-Li2GeO3 is performed by inducing compressive isotropic pressures using DFT simulation. Herein, interesting results of electronic and structural phase transitions from indirect → direct at P=11 GPa and from orthorhombic → tetragonal structures at P=50 GPa, respectively, are reported. For stability, we present the dynamical, thermal and mechanical stabilities by computing the phonon dispersion curves, MD simulation calculated at room temperature and the elastic constants. An anomalous behaviour of the investigated compound at P∼10–11 GPa has been identified and thoroughly discussed. The piezoelectric response improves with pressure, with the maximum piezoelectric constant, e33=1.42 Cm−2 at P=15 GPa. The orthorhombic-Li2GeO3 being with higher electromechanical conversion rate than its tetragonal phase by more than 10-fold reveals a superior piezoelectric performance of the orthorhombic phase. To the best of our knowledge, the present literature represents the first theoretical analysis of TE properties for this type of material. The calculated TE efficiency using GGA+SOC formalism at T=1200 K is ZT∼0.63 and 0.72 for pristine orthorhombic (P=0 GPa) and tetragonal (P=50 GPa) structures, respectively. The maximum TE efficiency achieved at P=15 GPa yields ZT=0.97 and 1.56 using the GGA and GGA + SOC formalisms.

description: We study the Howe dualities involving the reductive dual pairs $(O(d),spo(2m|2n))$ and $(Sp(d),osp(2m|2n))$ on the (super)symmetric tensor of $\C^d\otimes\C^{m|n}$. We obtain complete decompositions of this space with respect to their respective joint actions. We also use these dualities to derive a character formula for these irreducible representations of $spo(2m|2n)$ and $osp(2m|2n)$ that appear in these decompositions.

description: This study analyzes the explanatory potential of the real options approach (ROA) regarding the reluctance of Kazakhstani farmers to invest in modern dairy farming. More precisely, it compares the valuation of the ROA with those of the classical investment criterion such as the net present value (NPV). A further objective is to analyze the sensitivity of investment triggers with respect to assumed stochastic processes. To do so, an option-pricing model, which combines the stochastic simulation and the parameterization of investment triggers, is suggested. The results reveal that the investment trigger given by the ROA is considerably higher than the one given by the NPV criterion. This verifies that the ROA has an explanatory potential for the reluctance of farmers to invest in modern dairy farming. In addition, it was found that the option-pricing results indicate a high sensitivity regarding different stochastic processes as well as risk attitudes.

description: The nonlinear equations for the general nonsingular pairs of compatible nonlocal Poisson brackets of hydrodynamic type are derived and the integrability of these equations by the method of inverse scattering problem is proved. For these equations, the Lax pairs with a spectral parameter are presented. Moreover, we demonstrate the integrability of the equations for some especially important partial classes of compatible nonlocal Poisson brackets of hydrodynamic type, in particular, for the most important case when one of the compatible Poisson brackets is local and also for the case when one of the compatible Poisson brackets is generated by a metric of constant Riemannian curvature.

Verso un articolo indefinito in cinese moderno: linee di grammaticalizzazione del numerale 一yī

description: The use of the numeral classifier construction yī ‘one’ + Classifier as a marker of indefiniteness has already been acknowledged by several studies in Chinese linguistics, suggesting the emergence of an indefinite article in Modern Chinese. This contribution explores the syntactic and pragmatic uses of the numeral construction and its reduced form, with the aim of demonstrating that the original quantifier has actually completed the grammaticalization process into an indefinite article. The recent emergence of a new phonologically reduced form in the spoken language of Beijing and two special pragmatic uses of the general classifier gè provide further evidence of this development, which is not isolated, but part of a general evolution of the grammatical category of (in)definiteness in Modern Chinese.

description: This note carries three purposes involving our latest advances on the radial basis function (RBF) approach. First, we will introduce a new scheme employing the boundary knot method (BKM) to nonlinear convection-diffusion problem. It is stressed that the new scheme directly results in a linear BKM formulation of nonlinear problems by using response point-dependent RBFs, which can be solved by any linear solver. Then we only need to solve a single nonlinear algebraic equation for desirable unknown at some inner node of interest. The numerical results demonstrate high accuracy and efficiency of this nonlinear BKM strategy. Second, we extend the concepts of distance function, which include time-space and variable transformation distance functions. Finally, we demonstrate that if the nodes are symmetrically placed, the RBF coefficient matrices have either centrosymmetric or skew centrosymmetric structures. The factorization features of such matrices lead to a considerable reduction in the RBF computing effort. A simple approach is also presented to reduce the ill-conditioning of RBF interpolation matrices in general cases.

description: This study is primarily intended to examine the dynamics and determinants of rural household poverty and vulnerability in Northern Highlands of Ethiopia. Besides, it compares the result of asset-based poverty measurement against the standard consumption-based approach between two purposively selected Peasant Associations (PAs) in the region. The data for this research emanated mainly from the Ethiopian Household Survey (ERHS). Substantial improvements in many of the measures of household’s welfare (in terms of selected data on assets, education and participation in development activities) have been observed over the study period. However, considerable proportion of households is found to be poor and vulnerable in both PAs. In addition, the trends of both measures have been found to vary between the peasant associations. Moreover, the consumption based approach shows lower poverty incidences in shumsheha in all the survey rounds compared to Yetemen contrary to the results of the PCA approach, which appears to second previous village studies. This indicates the limitation of the consumption based approach in accounting for over all changes in the wellbeing of households. The study also compared the different determining factors of poverty and vulnerability in the two PAs and important implications drawn from the results are discussed.

description: Strategic planning is increasingly being adapted by agricultural research, development and extension organisations. Strategic decisions require an assessment of the future and, in particular, the likelihood of growth in industries. Normally this is conducted descriptively with little quantitative analysis and often without involvement from economists. There are many tools available which help to provide information about the future, mathematical programming (MP) being one of them. This paper demonstrates the use of MP to analyse scenarios. Expert groups estimated scenarios for prices and productivity changes which they considered plausible over the next 10 years. The MP model, MIDAS, was used to generate the optimal mix of enterprises and levels of crop and livestock production consistent with these scenarios for typical broad acre crop/livestock farms in different regions of Western Australia. Results are presented and the strengths and weaknesses of this approach are discussed.

A physical model for [CII] line emission from galaxies

description: A tight relation between the [CII]158$μ$m line luminosity and star formation rate is measured in local galaxies. At high redshift ($z>5$), though, a much larger scatter is observed, with a considerable (15-20\%) fraction of the outliers being [CII]-deficient. Moreover, the [CII] surface brightness ($Σ_{\rm CII}$) of these sources is systematically lower than expected from the local relation. To clarify the origin of such [CII]-deficiency we have developed an analytical model that fits local [CII] data, and has been validated against radiative transfer simulations performed with CLOUDY. The model predicts an overall increase of $Σ_{\rm CII}$ with the surface star formation rate ($Σ_*$). However, for $Σ_* > 1 M_\odot~{\rm yr}^{-1}~{\rm kpc}^{-2}$, $Σ_{\rm CII}$ saturates. We conclude that underluminous [CII] systems can result from a combination of three factors: (a) large upward deviations from the Kennicutt-Schmidt relation ($κ_s \gg 1$), parameterized by the "burstiness" parameter $κ_s$; (b) low metallicity; (c) low gas density, at least for the most extreme sources (e.g. CR7). Observations of [CII] emission alone cannot break the degeneracy among the above three parameters; this requires additional information coming from other emission lines (e.g. [OIII]88$μ$m, CIII]1909A, CO lines). Simple formulae are given to interpret available data for low and high-$z$ galaxies.

description: A nyerereite is a carbonate mineral with chemical composition (Na,K)2Ca(CO3)2 and incommensurately modulated crystal structure. Its structure can be described using (3 + 1)-dimensional superspace group Cmcm(α00)00s with modulation vector q = 0.374(1)a*. Here we present the high pressure study of a synthetic nyerereite up to 8.2 GPa, based on single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. The value of modulation vector q is independent of applied pressure and retains a value of about 0.374a*. The present investigation shows no significant changes in modulation parameters of all atomic sites in the studied pressure range. The third-order Birch–Murnaghan equation of state was used to fit PV data with V0 = 559.2(8) Å3, K0 = 30.0(11) GPa, K0′ = 6.4(5); the value of bulk modulus is significantly lower than for other known carbonates with a similar composition, which also manifests itself in relatively low values of mode Gruneisen parameters.
