description: Hog-processing moved out of many cities and into many rural areas during the 1980's. For six small towns in the Corn Belt, new or reopened processing plants brought unexpected changes. The plants offered many more jobs than local labor surplus could fill and at lower wages than many residents would accept. Commuters and inmigrants filled many jobs, changing the age and racial/ethnic composition of the smallest towns.

description: Abstract: We prove that for each γ∈(0, 2), there is an exponent dγ>2, the “fractal dimension of γ-Liouville quantum gravity (LQG)”, which describes the ball volume growth exponent for certain random planar maps in theγ-LQG universality class, the exponent for the Liouville heat kernel, and exponents for various continuum approximations of γ-LQG distances such as Liouville graph distance and Liouville first passage percolation. We also show that dγ is a continuous, strictly increasing function of γ and prove upper and lower bounds for dγ which in some cases greatly improve on previously known bounds for the aforementioned exponents. For example, for γ=2 (which corresponds to spanning-tree weighted planar maps) our bounds give 3.4641≤d2≤3.63299 and in the limiting case we get 4.77485≤limγ→2-dγ≤4.89898.

description: We present four-dimensional gauge theories that describe physics on five-dimensional curved (warped) backgrounds, which includes bulk fields with various spins (vectors, spinors, and scalars). Field theory on the AdS$_5$ geometry is examined as a simple example of our formulation. Various properties of bulk fields on this background, e.g., the mass spectrum and field localization behavior, can be achieved within a fully four-dimensional framework. Moreover, that gives a localization mechanism for massless vector fields. We also consider supersymmetric cases, and show in particular that the conditions on bulk masses imposed by supersymmetry on warped backgrounds are derived from a four-dimensional supersymmetric theory on the flat background. As a phenomenological application, models are shown to generate hierarchical Yukawa couplings. Finally, we discuss possible underlying mechanisms which dynamically realize the required couplings to generate curved geometries.

Uniform Boundedness and Continuity at the Cauchy Horizon for Linear Waves on Reissner–Nordström–AdS Black Holes

Year: 2019
Subjects: Article

description: Abstract: Motivated by the Strong Cosmic Censorship Conjecture for asymptotically Anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetimes, we initiate the study of massive scalar waves satisfying □gψ-μψ=0 on the interior of AdS black holes. We prescribe initial data on a spacelike hypersurface of a Reissner–Nordström–AdS black hole and impose Dirichlet (reflecting) boundary conditions at infinity. It was known previously that such waves only decay at a sharp logarithmic rate (in contrast to a polynomial rate as in the asymptotically flat regime) in the black hole exterior. In view of this slow decay, the question of uniform boundedness in the black hole interior and continuity at the Cauchy horizon has remained up to now open. We answer this question in the affirmative.

description: The usual Heisenberg uncertainty relation for position and momentum may be replaced by an exact equality, for suitably chosen measures of position and momentum uncertainty. This "exact" uncertainty relation is valid for_all_ pure states, and is sufficiently strong to provide an axiomatic basis for moving from classical mechanics to quantum mechanics. In particular, the assumption of a nonclassical momentum fluctuation, having a strength which scales inversely with uncertainty in position, leads from the classical equations of motion to the Schroedinger equation.

channel selection

description: ABSTRACT: Thresholds of asymmetric pulses presented to cochlear implant (CI) listeners depend on polarity in a way that differs across subjects and electrodes. It has been suggested that lower thresholds for cathodic-dominant compared to anodic-dominant pulses reflect good local neural health. We evaluated the hypothesis that this polarity effect (PE) can be used in a site-selection strategy to improve speech perception and spectro-temporal resolution. Detection thresholds were measured in eight users of Advanced Bionics CIs for 80-pps, triphasic, monopolar pulse trains where the central high-amplitude phase was either anodic or cathodic. Two experimental MAPs were then generated for each subject by deactivating the five electrodes with either the highest or the lowest PE magnitudes (cathodic minus anodic threshold). Performance with the two experimental MAPs was evaluated using two spectro-temporal tests (Spectro-Temporal Ripple for Investigating Processor EffectivenesS (STRIPES; Archer-Boyd et al. in J Acoust Soc Am 144:2983–2997, 2018) and Spectral-Temporally Modulated Ripple Test (SMRT; Aronoff and Landsberger in J Acoust Soc Am 134:EL217–EL222, 2013)) and with speech recognition in quiet and in noise. Performance was also measured with an experimental MAP that used all electrodes, similar to the subjects’ clinical MAP. The PE varied strongly across subjects and electrodes, with substantial magnitudes relative to the electrical dynamic range. There were no significant differences in performance between the three MAPs at group level, but there were significant effects at subject level—not all of which were in the hypothesized direction—consistent with previous reports of a large variability in CI users’ performance and in the potential benefit of site-selection strategies. The STRIPES but not the SMRT test successfully predicted which strategy produced the best speech-in-noise performance on a subject-by-subject basis. The average PE across electrodes correlated significantly with subject age, duration of deafness, and speech perception scores, consistent with a relationship between PE and neural health. These findings motivate further investigations into site-specific measures of neural health and their application to CI processing strategies.

description: This study fills an important gap in the research literature to examine the mean and volatility spillover effects between the U.S. oil, overall U.S. stocks markets and the U.S. energy pipeline market by studying the linkages between the West Texas Intermediate (WTI), Dow Jones Industrial Average Index (DJIA), S&P 500 stock index (SP500) and the Dow Jones U.S. Pipeline Indices (DJUSPL). We are particularly interested in the impact of the liquidity crisis in the financial market on the volatility spillovers. Results indicate that both WTI and DJIA/SP500 have statistically significant volatility spillover effect on DJUSPL. In addition, the volatility transmission from the U.S. oil and overall stock markets to the U.S. energy pipeline market increased since the 2007-2008 financial crisis started. Furthermore, the raising illiquidity in the U.S. financial market is associated with the statistically significant increase in the volatility transmission between the markets. Furthermore, we examine the new cross-hedging strategy involving DJUSPL to manage the risk on the oil market and the both in-sample and out-of-sample performances of the hedging strategy are more effective than the oil-stock hedging strategy proposed by previous scholars (Basher & Sadorsky, 2016; Salisu & Oloko, 2015). Our results will assist policy makers and investors on planning energy, diversifying portfolio and managing energy risk.

description: In the past two decades, several landmark works of intellectual history have attempted to chart the development of “secular modernity”, generally locating its origins in medieval or Protestant metaphysical assumptions. These works are genealogies, constructive projects within which historical narrative functions to uncover truths about social phenomena that would otherwise remain hidden. Several key claims of these genealogies, however, fail to withstand scrutiny: they operate with a model of intellectual change that assumes it results from the success of certain new ideas and locate the origins of secularity too early. If historians wish to better understand development of secularity, a more helpful entry point is a seventeenth-century debate about the immateriality of the soul, the nature of space, and the spirit of God. Understanding how Cambridge Platonist Henry More, among the most prominent philosophers in Europe during his lifetime, attempted to defend certain traditional metaphysical commitments simultaneously illuminates that intellectual change results as much from the failure of ideas as their success and reveals the origin of a key idea identified with secular modernity in recent genealogies.

description: In this study, we present one-dimensional, non-local-thermodynamic-equilibrium, radiative transfer simulations (using CMFGEN) in which we introduce micro-clumping at nebular times into two Type Ia supernova ejecta models. We use one sub-Chandrasekhar (sub-M$_{\rm Ch}$) ejecta with 1.02 M$_\odot$ and one M$_{\rm Ch}$ ejecta model with 1.40 M$_\odot$. We introduce clumping factors $f=$0.33,0.25, and 0.10 which are constant throughout the ejecta and compared to the unclumped $f=1.0$ case. We find that clumping is a natural mechanism to reduce the ionization of the ejecta, reducing emission from [Fe III], [Ar III], and [S III] by a factor of a few. For decreasing values of the clumping factor $f$, the [Ca II] $λλ$7291,7324 doublet became a dominant cooling line for our M$_{\rm Ch}$ model but still weak in our sub-M$_{\rm Ch}$ model. Strong [Ca II] $λλ$7291,7324 indicates non-thermal heating in that region and may constrain explosion modelling. Due to the low abundance of stable nickel, our sub-M$_{\rm Ch}$ model never showed the [Ni II] 1.939 micron diagnostic feature for all clumping values.

Rural-to-urban migrant workers
Universal health coverage
Systematic review

description: Abstract: Background: More than 90% of the Chinese population was covered by its three basic social health insurances. However, the Chinese rural-to-urban migrant workers (RUMWs), accounting for about one-fifth of China’s total population, seem to be put on a disadvantaged position under the current health insurance schemes. The purpose of this study is to identify the current barriers and to provide policy suggestions to the ineffective health insurance coverage of RUMWs in China. Methods: A systematic review guided by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. The searched databases included PubMed, Embase, Medline, Web of Science, PsycINFO, Maternity and Infant Care Database MIDIRS, the Cochrane Library, WHO Library Database (WHOLIS), WHO Global Health Library, World Bank eLibrary, OpenGrey, CNKI, and Wanfang. In total, 70 articles were reviewed. Results: (1) Chinese RUMWs have high work mobility and low job stability; (2) Barriers faced by RUMWs in obtaining effective health insurance coverage are primarily due to the reluctance of employers to provide insurance for all employees and the disadvantaged position held by RUMWs when negotiating with their employers; (3) Fissures among existing health insurance schemes leaves no room for RUMWs to meet their primary needs; and (4) Recent efforts in improving the portability and transferability of insurance across borders and schemes are not enough to solve the barriers. Conclusion: It is argued that the Chinese central government must deal with the fragmentation of healthcare system in China and promote effective coverage by: (1) playing a more active role in coordinating different healthcare and social welfare schemes across the country, (2) increasing the health insurance portability, (3) making the healthcare policies more compatible with RUMW’s characteristics to meet their primary health needs, (4) strengthening supervision of employers, and (5) providing more vocational training and other support to increase RUMW’s job stability.

description: Two interaction mechanisms of particles in a fluid are proposed on base of forces, mediated by hydrodynamic thermal fluctuations. The first one is similar to the conventional van der Waals interaction, but instead of been mediated by electromagnetic fluctuations, it is mediated by fluctuations of hydrodynamic sound waves. The second one is due to a thermal drift of particles to the region with a bigger effective mass, which is formed by the involved surrounding fluid and depends on an inter-particle distance. The both mechanisms likely can be relevant in interpretation of the observed long-range attraction of colloidal particles, since a set different experiments shows the attraction energy of the order of kT and, perhaps, only a fluctuation mechanism of attarction provides this universality.

description: Today, rail vehicle localization is based on infrastructure-side Balises (beacons) together with on-board odometry to determine whether a rail segment is occupied. Such a coarse locking leads to a sub-optimal usage of the rail networks. New railway standards propose the use of moving blocks centered around the rail vehicles to increase the capacity of the network. However, this approach requires accurate and robust position and velocity estimation of all vehicles. In this work, we investigate the applicability, challenges and limitations of current visual and visual-inertial motion estimation frameworks for rail applications. An evaluation against RTK-GPS ground truth is performed on multiple datasets recorded in industrial, sub-urban, and forest environments. Our results show that stereo visual-inertial odometry has a great potential to provide a precise motion estimation because of its complementing sensor modalities and shows superior performance in challenging situations compared to other frameworks.

description: The description of optical properties of subnanometer junctions is particularly challenging. Purely classical approaches fail, because the quantum nature of electrons needs to be considered. Here we report on a novel classical fully atomistic approach, ωFQ, based on the Drude model for conduction in metals, classical electrostatics and quantum tunneling. We show that ωFQ is able to reproduce the plasmonic behavior of complex metal subnanometer junctions with quantitative fidelity to full ab initio calculations. Besides the practical potentialities of our approach for large scale nanoplasmonic simulations, we show that a classical approach, in which the atomistic discretization of matter is properly accounted for, can accurately describe the nanoplasmonics phenomena dominated by quantum effects.

Voluntary turnover can be classified as functional or dysfunctional, depending on whether the employee is low-performing or high-performing. Dysfunctional turnover can have a negative impact on the organization and the labor market, as it implies the loss of valuable human capital, knowledge, skills, and experience. Therefore, it is important for organizations to understand and manage the factors that influence employee turnover and intention to leave (Rizwan et al., 2017).

Somalia is a country that has faced decades of civil war, political instability, poverty, and insecurity. These conditions have affected the development of various sectors, including education, health, and business. The private sector has been playing a vital role in providing employment opportunities and services to the population, especially in urban areas. However, the private sector also faces many challenges, such as lack of infrastructure, regulation, security, and skilled labor. Employee turnover is one of the major problems that affect the performance and sustainability of private organizations in Somalia (Abdullahi et al., 2019).

description: This paper investigates the linkages between commodity price bubbles and macroeconomic factors, with an application to agricultural commodity markets in China from 2006 to 2014. Price bubbles are identified using a newly-developed recursive right-tailed unit root test. A Zero-inflated Poisson Model is used to analyze the factors contributing to bubbles. Results show that a) there were speculative bubbles in most of the Chinese agricultural commodities during the sample period, though their presences are rather infrequent; b) economic growth, money supply and inflation have positive effects on bubble occurrences, while interest rate has a negative effect; c) among all macroeconomic factors considered, economic growth and money supply have the greatest effects on bubble occurrences. Our findings shed new light on the nature and formation of bubble behavior in the Chinese agricultural commodity markets.
Positronium Decay : Gauge Invariance and Analyticity

description: The construction of positronium decay amplitudes is handled through the use of dispersion relations. In this way, emphasis is put on basic QED principles: gauge invariance and soft-photon limits (analyticity). A firm grounding is given to the factorization approaches, and some ambiguities in the spin and energy structures of the positronium wavefunction are removed. Non-factorizable amplitudes are naturally introduced. Their dynamics is described, especially regarding the enforcement of gauge invariance and analyticity through delicate interferences. The important question of the completeness of the present theoretical predictions for the decay rates is then addressed. Indeed, some of those non-factorizable contributions are unaccounted for by NRQED analyses. However, it is shown that such new contributions are highly suppressed, being of order alpha^3. Finally, a particular effective form factor formalism is constructed for parapositronium, allowing a thorough analysis of binding energy effects and analyticity implementation.

description: The National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) surveys the United States population of farm operators numerous times each year. The list components of these surveys are conducted using independent designs, each stratified differently. By chance, NASS samples some farm operators in multiple surveys, producing a respondent burden concern. Two methods are proposed that reduce this type of respondent burden. The first method uses linear integer programming to minimize the expected respondent burden. The second method samples by any current sampling scheme, then, within classes of similar farm operations, it minimizes the number of times that NASS samples a farm operation for several surveys. The second method reduces the number of times that a respondent is contacted twice or more within a survey year by about 70 percent. The first method will reduce this type of burden even further.

description: This paper develops an economic analysis of commodity price dynamics and price volatility. The approach applies under general supply-demand conditions, including the role played by private and public inventory holders. Quantile autogression is used to estimate the evolving distribution of price. The usefulness of the method is illustrated in an application to two markets in China: a food market (rice) and a feed market (corn). Based on monthly data over the period 2000-2014, the econometric analysis shows how the price distributions (including skewness and kurtosis) vary across commodity markets. Using a Markov chain representation, the paper evaluates the dynamics of price volatility. It finds slow adjustments in the price distribution between short run and long run situations. The investigation also assesses the short run and long run effects of alternative economic policies on the price distributions. It finds that the Chinese price support programs have helped stabilize the domestic food market but not the feed market.

description: We report on a general method for the calculation of the frequency-dependent optical response of clusters based upon time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT). The implementation is done using explicit propagation in the time domain and a self-consistent program that uses a linear combination of atomic orbitals (LCAO). Our actual calculations employ the SIESTA program, which is designed to be fast and accurate for large clusters. We use the adiabatic local density approximation to account for exchange and correlation effects. Results are presented for the imaginary part of the linear polarizability, Im [α(w)], and the dipole strength function, S(w), of C60 and Na8, compared to previous calculations and to experiment. We also show how to calculate the integrated frequency-dependent second order non-linear polarizability for the case of a step function electric field, γ_{step}(w), and present results for C60.

description: Migration between rural locations is prevalent in many developing countries and has been found to improve economic well-being in sub-Saharan Africa. This paper explores the pathways through which intra-rural migration affects welfare in rural Tanzania. Specifically, we investigate whether such migration enables migrants to access more land, higher quality land, or greater off-farm income generating opportunities that may, in turn, translate into improved welfare. Drawing on a longitudinal data set that tracks migrants to their destinations, we employ a difference-in-differences approach, validated with a multinomial treatment effects model, and find that migration confers a benefit in consumption to migrants. Results do not indicate that this advantage is derived from larger farms, though intra-rural migrants to more densely populated areas do seem to achieve more productive farmland at their destinations. Across all destinations, migrants are more likely to draw from off-farm and non-farm income sources, suggesting that even intra-rural migration represents a shift away from agriculture, and this is likely the dominant channel through which migrants benefit. We conclude that intra-rural migration merits greater attention in the discourse on rural development and structural transformation.

International exchange

description: Abstract: Background: The progress of electronic health technologies and biobanks holds enormous promise for efficient research. Evidence shows that studies based on sharing and secondary use of data/samples have the potential to significantly advance medical knowledge. However, sharing of such resources for international collaboration is hampered by the lack of clarity about ethical and legal requirements for transfer of data and samples across international borders. Main text: Here, the International Clinical Trial Center Network (ICN) reports the legal and ethical requirements governing data and sample exchange (DSE) across four continents. The most recurring requirement is ethical approval, whereas only in specific conditions approval of national health authorities is required. Informed consent is not required in all sharing situations. However, waiver of informed consent is only allowed in certain countries/regions and under certain circumstances. The current legal and ethical landscape appears to be very complex and under constant evolution. Regulations differ between countries/regions and are often incomplete, leading to uncertainty. Conclusion: With this work, ICN illuminates the unmet need for a single international collaborative framework to facilitate DSE. Harmonising requirements for global DSE will reduce inefficiency and waste in research. There are many challenges to realising this ambitious vision, including inconsistent terminology and definitions, and heterogeneous and dynamic legal constraints. Here, we identify areas of agreement and significant difference as a necessary first step towards facilitating international collaboration. We propose the establishment of a working group to continue the comparison across jurisdictions, create a standardised glossary and define a set of basic principles and fundamental requirements for DSE.
