description: The rate at which the solar wind extracts angular momentum from the Sun has been predicted by theoretical models for many decades, and yet we lack a conclusive measurement from in-situ observations. In this letter we present a new estimate of the time-varying angular momentum flux in the equatorial solar wind, as observed by the \textit{Wind} spacecraft from 1994-2019. We separate the angular momentum flux into contributions from the protons, alpha particles, and magnetic stresses, showing that the mechanical flux in the protons is $\sim$3 times larger than the magnetic field stresses. We observe the tendency for the angular momentum flux of fast wind streams to be oppositely signed to the slow wind streams, as noted by previous authors. From the average total flux, we estimate the global angular momentum loss rate of the Sun to be $3.3\times10^{30}$erg, which lies within the range of various MHD wind models in the literature. This angular momentum loss rate is a factor of $\sim$2 weaker than required for a Skumanich-like rotation period evolution ($Ω_*\propto $ stellar age$^{-1/2}$), which should be considered in studies of the rotation period evolution of Sun-like stars.

description: This paper presents a unified treatment of the production and financial decisions available to a firm facing frictionless financial markets and a stochastic production technology under minimal assumptions on the firm's stochastic technology and objective function. The specific focus is on separation results for stochastic technologies, that is, on conditions under which the optimal production decision may be determined without regard to the risk preferences of the firm's owners. Necessary and sufficient conditions for separation, which generalize existing results, are presented. We show, among other results, that separation implies that the linear pricing of assets in the span of the market can be extended to encompass sets of assets outside of the span that are not perfectly replicable.

description: This study investigates young adults’ first experience with the Supplementary Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), examining the determinants of first program entry and exit. It makes use of the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1997 cohort (NLSY97), which follows respondents from adolescence into adulthood. This study estimates discrete-time hazard models of program entry and exit with and without unobserved heterogeneity. Unobserved heterogeneity is modeled using both a parametric approach, in which a gamma distribution is assumed, and a non-parametric approach with two mass points. The results are broadly consistent across models, indicating that, for the cohort in this study, accounting for unobserved heterogeneity does not substantially alter the results from a basic discrete-time hazard model. The results show that expanded categorical eligibility increased the hazard of SNAP entry in the six years following high school, while the absence of vehicle exclusions decreased the entry hazard. For program exit, however, state SNAP policies had no statistically significant effect. The recent birth of a child, prior participation in WIC and low educational attainment were each strongly associated with an increased “risk” of SNAP entry, and decreased “risk” of exit. Somewhat, surprisingly, higher unemployment rates in the local labor market were not significantly associated with higher entry risk, but were strongly associated with a lower exit risk.

description: In this work we perform full-state LQR feedback control of fluid flows using non-intrusive data-driven reduced-order models. We propose a model reduction method called low-rank Dynamic Mode Decomposition (lrDMD) that solves for a rank-constrained linear representation of the dynamical system. lrDMD is shown to have lower data reconstruction error compared to standard Optimal Mode Decomposition (OMD) and Dynamic Mode Decomposition (DMD), but with an increased computational cost arising from solving a non-convex matrix optimization problem. We demonstrate model order reduction on the complex linearized Ginzburg-Landau equation in the globally unstable regime and on the unsteady flow over a flat plate at a high angle of attack. In both cases, low-dimensional full-state feedback controller is constructed using reduced-order models constructed using DMD, OMD and lrDMD. It is shown that lrDMD stabilizes the Ginzburg-Landau system with a lower order controller and is able to suppress vortex shedding from an inclined flat plate at a cost lower than either DMD or OMD. It is further shown that lrDMD yields an improved estimate of the adjoint system, for a given rank, relative to DMD and OMD.

description: Oscillations of the resistance observed under electromagnetic wave excitation in the high mobility GaAs/AlGaAs 2DES are examined as a function of the radiation frequency and the power, utilizing an empirical lineshape based on exponentially damped sinusoids. The fit-analysis indicates the resistance oscillation frequency, F, increases with the radiation frequency, n, at the rate dF/dn = 2.37 mTesla/GHz; the damping parameter, a, is approximately independent of n at constant power; and the amplitude, A, of the oscillations grows slowly with the incident power, at a constant temperature and frequency. The lineshape appears to provide a good description of the data.

description: There is currently no FDA or EMA-approved standard of care for metastatic uveal melanoma. A systematic review of all interventional uveal melanoma trials on the ClinicalTrials.gov database and EU Clinical Trials Register was conducted from January 15, 2019 through November 30, 2019. Categorical data analysis and descriptive statistics were generated. A total of 119 trials met inclusion criteria for this systematic review, of which 39 were active. Of all trials, 47% were NIH-funded while 59% of active trials were industry funded. Of all trials, 86% were concerned with treatment of metastasis, 7% with adjuvant therapy, and 8% with treatment of primary tumor. In trials treating metastasis, 62% reported response rates as their primary outcome measure. Non-randomized patient allocation to treatment arms was reported in 73% of trials, and 8% of trials were in phase 3. Pharmaceutical drugs were utilized by 69% of trials. Of the 6 negative randomized trials, all reported no significant effect from intervention compared to a control arm and were usually initiated on preclinical or early phase data. Given decreased NIH funding for uveal melanoma trials, clinicians should consider industry funding partnerships. Standardization of primary outcome measures between trials will also allow for statistical meta-analyses of results in this rare patient population. Finally, clinicians should use single arm studies to establish significant treatment response rates before proceeding with randomized trials.

We show that a simple (linear time) backtrack decimation strategy is sufficient to reach configurations well below the lower bound for the dynamic threshold energy and very close to the analytic prediction for the optimal ground states. A comparative numerical study on one of the most efficient local search procedures is also given.

description: Livestock production and associated products offer significant opportunities for economic growth and poverty reduction, especially among the rural farmers in Zambia and other developing countries. However, smallholder livestock producers are characterized by low levels of market participation (Negassa, Rashid, and Gebremedhin 2011). Among many reasons cited in the literature, smallholder farmers do not participate in livestock markets because of remoteness of livestock producers from the main urban market centers, and poor road infrastructure that result in high transport costs. Understanding the determinants and livestock marketing behavior of smallholder farmers will contribute to the knowledge gap in the country regarding why poverty remains high even among households owning livestock.

description: We consider two types of "dimension bubbles", which are viewed as 4d nontopological solitons that emerge from a 5d theory with a compact extra dimension. The size of the extra dimension varies rapidly within the domain wall of the soliton. We consider the cases of type I (II) bubbles where the size of the extra dimension inside the bubble is much larger (smaller) than outside. Type I bubbles with thin domain walls can be stabilized by the entrapment of various particle modes whose masses become much smaller inside than outside the bubble. This is demonstrated here for the cases of scalar bosons, fermions, and massive vector bosons, including both Kaluza-Klein zero modes and Kaluza-Klein excitation modes. Type II bubbles expel massive particle modes but both types can be stabilized by photons. Plasma filled bubbles containing a variety of massless or nearly massless radiation modes may exist as long-lived metastable states. Furthermore, in contrast to the case with a "gravitational bag", the metric for a fluid-filled dimension bubble does not exhibit a naked singularity at the bubble's center.

description: All governments require accurate information on how the economy functions in order to formulate and implement sound agricultural policies. Policies to ensure food security are no different. Efforts to keep food prices at tolerable levels require information about the competitiveness of the wholesaling, milling, and retailing stages of the food value chain. The main objective for this paper is to better inform policy discussions about the effects of alternative maize pricing and marketing policies on national food security and agricultural development.

We use an iterative numerical method based on the time-dependent local density approximation with continuum, which we have recently developed. The oscillator strengths for the two isomers differ at photon energies above their ionization thresholds. The magnitude and the shape of the oscillator strength distribution are in good agreement with recent experiments. The differences between the isomers arise from difference in symmetry of electronic states and different behaviors of continuum excitations.

description: The relative importance of small versus large farm enterprises in driving agricultural production growth and poverty reduction is a central development debate in Africa. More broadly this debate revolves around questions of farm land intensification versus extensification as the most effective means for addressing the persistent issues of food insecurity and hunger in Africa. On the one hand, there is a well‐established literature that argues that the intensification of smallholder production is the most effective way of initiating sweeping beneficial changes in predominantly agrarian societies. One the other hand, there is a growing belief that massive constraints in African smallholder production and marketing systems make it improbable for very small farms to be engines of agricultural‐led capital accumulation, land consolation, farm expansion, and significant production gains. For them a strategy that seeks to stimulate large‐scale agriculture can more effective address the constraints to African food production.

description: A part of the seismic time series, in which the Omori law for temporal pattern of aftershocks holds, is refereed to as the Omori regime. Here the properties of correlation between earthquake events both inside and outside of the Omori regime are studied by analysis of the data taken in southern California. It is found that inside of the Omori regime correlation exhibits the aging phenomenon, in marked contrast to the fact that no aging is observed outside of the Omori regime. The scaling nature of aging is also discussed and the form of the function responsible for it is presented. The results indicate that complex fault-fault interactions may be governed by glassy dynamics.

Retarded Interaction of Radiation Field and Symmetry Violation of Time Reversal in the High order Stimulated Radiation and Absorption Processes of Light
Creators: name: Xiaochun, Mei
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: General Physics (physics.gen-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: It is proved that when the retarded effect (or multiple moment effect) of radiation fields is taken into account, the high order stimulated radiation and stimulated absorption probabilities of light are not the same so that time reversal symmetry would be violated, though the total Hamiltonian of electromagnetic interaction is still unchanged under time reversal. The reason to cause time reversal symmetry violation is that certain filial or partial transitive processes of bounding state atoms are forbidden or can not be achieved actually due to the law of energy conservation, the asymmetric actions of effective transition operators before and after time reversal, as well as the special states of atoms themselves. These restrictions would cause the symmetry violation of time reversal of other filial or partial transition processes which can be actualized really. The symmetry violation is also relative to the initial state asymmetries of bounding atoms before and after time reversal. For the electromagnetic interaction between non-bounding state atoms and radiation field, there is no this kind of symmetry violation of time reversal. In this way, the current formula of light stimulated radiation and absorption parameters with time reversal symmetry should be revised. The influence of time reversal symmetry violation on the foundational theory of laser is also discussed and the phenomena of non-population inversion and non-radiation transition can also be explained well. In this way, a more reliable foundation can be established for the theories of laser and nonlinear optics in which non-equilibrium processes are involved.

Metallicity and the spectral energy distribution and spectral types of dwarf O-stars

description: We present a systematic study of the effect of metallicity on the stellar spectral energy distribution (SED) of O main sequence (dwarf) stars, focussing on the hydrogen and helium ionizing continua, and on the optical and near-IR lines used for spectral classification. The spectra are based on non-LTE line blanketed atmosphere models with stellar winds calculated using the CMFGEN code of Hillier & Miller (1998). We draw the following conclusions. First, we find that the total number of Lyman photons emitted is almost independent of line blanketing effects and metallicity for a given effective temperature. This is because the flux that is blocked by the forest of metal lines at wavelengths shorter than 600 Angstrom is redistributed mainly within the Lyman continuum. Second, the spectral type, as defined by the ratio of the equivalent widths of HeI 4471 Angstrom and HeII 4542 Angstrom, is shown to depend noticeably on the microturbulent velocity in the atmosphere, on metallicity and, within the luminosity class of dwarfs, on gravity. Third, we confirm the decrease in the effective temperature for a given spectral type due to the inclusion of line blanketing recently found by e.g. Martins et al. (2002). Finally, we find that the SED below ~450 Angstrom is highly dependent on metallicity. This is reflected in the behaviour of nebular fine-structure line ratios such as [NeIII]/[NeII] 15.5/12.8 and [ArIII]/[ArII] 9.0/7.0 micron. This dependence complicates the use of these nebular ratios as diagnostic tools for the effective temperature determination of the ionizing stars in HII regions and for age dating of starburst regions in galaxies.

description: A critical point of the energy dispersion is the momentum where electron velocity vanishes. At the corresponding energy, the density of states (DOS) exhibits non-analyticity such as divergence. Critical points can be first classified as ordinary and high-order ones, and the ordinary critical points have been studied thoroughly by Léon van Hove. In this work, we describe and classify high-order critical points based on topology, scaling and symmetry, which are beyond Léon van Hove's framework. We show that high-order critical points can have power-law divergent DOS with particle-hole asymmetry, and can be realized at generic or symmetric momenta by tuning a few parameters such as twist angle, strain, pressure and/or external fields.

description: This paper asks what motivates Western donors to provide foreign aid to Nepal. Results reveal existence of both donor interest and recipient need considerations in the disbursement of aid to this country over the period 1981 to 2005. Donors’ desire for promotion of commercial opportunities, their general economic affluence, as well as Nepal’s per capita GDP are all significant determinants of aid. On the other hand, neither Nepal’s economic growth nor its people’s political freedoms and civil liberties bear a significant relationship to the level of assistance it receives.

In the western industrialized countries, improvement in labor productivity has become an important source of economic growth. On the basis of analyzing changes of the industrial structure, changes of the structure of labor factor, changes of labor productivity and the growth rate in Guangdong Province in different periods, we use shift-share method to analyze the labor productivity effect of industrial structure in Guangdong Province, and put forward the following recommendations for the adjustment of industrial structure in Guangdong Province: (i) The adjustment of industrial structure should promote the reasonable and effective flow of labor between industries; (ii) Accelerating the optimization of the industrial structure is conducive to economic growth and improvement in labor productivity; (iii) In addition to structural optimization, the improvement in labor productivity should also focus on the improvement in intra-industry technology.

description: Quantum simulators are a promising technology on the spectrum of quantum devices from specialized quantum experiments to universal quantum computers. These quantum devices utilize entanglement and many-particle behaviors to explore and solve hard scientific, engineering, and computational problems. Rapid development over the last two decades has produced more than 300 quantum simulators in operation worldwide using a wide variety of experimental platforms. Recent advances in several physical architectures promise a golden age of quantum simulators ranging from highly optimized special purpose simulators to flexible programmable devices. These developments have enabled a convergence of ideas drawn from fundamental physics, computer science, and device engineering. They have strong potential to address problems of societal importance, ranging from understanding vital chemical processes, to enabling the design of new materials with enhanced performance, to solving complex computational problems. It is the position of the community, as represented by participants of the NSF workshop on "Programmable Quantum Simulators," that investment in a national quantum simulator program is a high priority in order to accelerate the progress in this field and to result in the first practical applications of quantum machines. Such a program should address two areas of emphasis: (1) support for creating quantum simulator prototypes usable by the broader scientific community, complementary to the present universal quantum computer effort in industry; and (2) support for fundamental research carried out by a blend of multi-investigator, multi-disciplinary collaborations with resources for quantum simulator software, hardware, and education.

description: This study takes Lin'an City which early carries out the experiment of ecological operation of hickory as the study site. On the basis of the input-output data on hickory and farmers' land, we analyze the input-output status of hickory land which practises ecological operation, the operators' willingness to accept ecological operation and the influencing factors. The results show that in the short term, ecological operation of hickory will have a certain negative impact on the economic benefits; within the experimental area, the degree of operators' willingness to accept ecological operation of hickory is high, and the operators have a clear understanding of long-term comprehensive benefits which may be brought by ecological operation; the ecological experiment and demonstration of hickory have achieved certain results; family income level, characteristics of householders, education and training, and so on, are the main factors that affect the operators' willingness to choose ecological operation. Finally, for how to further improve the promotion efficiency of ecological operation of hickory, we put forth some constructive recommendations.

description: We demonstrate that the problem of coupled two-level systems ("qubits") which are also subject to a generic (sub)Ohmic dissipative environment belongs to the same class of models as those describing (non)magnetic impurities embedded in strongly correlated systems. A further insight into the generalized single- and two-impurity Bose/Fermi Kondo models enables one to make specific recommendations towards a systematic engineering of highly coherent multi-qubit assemblies for potential applications in quantum information processing.

description: The nucleon properties and structure should be modified by short-range correlations (SRC) among nucleons. By analyzing SRC ratio data, we extract the mass of nucleon in the SRC pair and the expected number of pn-SRC pairs in deuterium, under the assumption that the SRC nucleon mass is universal in different nuclei. The nucleon mass of a two-nucleon SRC pair is $m_{\text{SRC}}=852\pm 18$ MeV, and the number of pn-SRC pairs in deuterium is $n^{\text{d}}_{\text{SRC}}=0.021\pm 0.005$. The mass deficit of the strongly overlapping nucleon can be explained by the trace anomaly contribution to the mass in QCD or alternatively by the vacuum energy in the MIT bag model.

description: Monitoring regional variation in population-based cancer survival is useful for assessing equity in national health-care system. This study quantifies variation in survival between municipalities and hospital districts responsible for primary care and for specialised care, respectively, in Finland. Five-year relative survival of 11 cancers and close to 700,000 patients was estimated by municipality in Finland over 1962–2016 using hierarchical Bayesian modelling. Variation (i) between hospital districts, (ii) between municipalities within hospital districts, and (iii) between all municipalities (total variation) were quantified by the standard deviation of 5-year relative survival standardised by the average survival level. In 2007–2016, the largest variation in 5-year relative survival between all municipalities was in stomach, prostate, kidney and liver cancer and skin melanoma. In male skin melanoma, prostate, and kidney cancer and in male and female pancreatic cancer, there was substantial and statistically significant variation between hospital districts, too. Variation within hospital districts was on average 67% (95% posterior interval [58%,76%]) out of the total variation and had decreased by 18% [2%, 33%] from 1997–2006. The decrease in variation within hospital districts suggests that equity in diagnostics and primary care has improved in Finland. However, the variation between hospital districts in skin melanoma, prostate and kidney cancer reflects differences in early diagnostics. In pancreatic cancer, substantial variation between hospital districts may relate to regional differences in the accessibility and the quality of cancer treatments.

description: This paper examines how income inequality varied as new countries joined the European Union. We consider a convergence test of contributions to international income inequality of 32 European countries over the period 1989-2002. The results indicate a weak convergence of contributions to inequalities. The average speed of inequality convergence gets lower as the number of countries in the union increases. We also find that the effect of technological inequalities is significant and depends on the level of wealth of a country. Taking into account the heterogeneity of behavior through the convergence parameter suggests that the speed of inequality convergence varies across countries.

description: We proposed a~new accurate aspect extraction method that makes use of both word and character-based embeddings. We have conducted experiments of various models of aspect extraction using LSTM and BiLSTM including CRF enhancement on five different pre-trained word embeddings extended with character embeddings. The results revealed that BiLSTM outperforms regular LSTM, but also word embedding coverage in train and test sets profoundly impacted aspect detection performance. Moreover, the additional CRF layer consistently improves the results across different models and text embeddings. Summing up, we obtained state-of-the-art F-score results for SemEval Restaurants (85%) and Laptops (80%).

description: This paper develops a model for demand-system estimations, whose coefficients are own-price Marshallian elasticities and elasticities of substitution between goods. The model satisfies the homogeneity, symmetry and, eventually, adding-up restrictions implied by consumer theory. It is primarily useful for the estimation of the demands of several goods of the same industry or group of products. The characteristics of the model are compared to other existing alternatives (logarithmic, translog, AIDS and QUAIDS demand systems). The model is finally applied to estimate the demands for several carbonated soft drinks in Argentina, and its results are presented together with the ones obtained with the other estimation methods.
