description: We study the entanglement properties of anisotropic open spin one-half Heisenberg chains with a modified central bond. The entanglement entropy between the two half-chains is calculated with the density-matrix renormalization method (DMRG).We find a logarithmic behaviour with an effective central charge c' varying with the length of the system. It flows to one in the ferromagnetic region and to zero in the antiferromagnetic region of the model. In the XX case it has a non-universal limit and we recover previous results.

description: We show that any polynomial tau-function of the s-component KP and the BKP hierarchies can be interpreted as a zero mode of an appropriate combinatorial generating function. As an application, we obtain explicit formulas for all polynomial tau-functions of these hierarchies in terms of Schur polynomials and Q-Schur polynomials respectively. We also obtain formulas for polynomial tau-functions of the reductions of the s-component KP hierarchy associated to partitions in s parts.

description: The magnetic properties of a system of coexisting localized spins and conduction electrons are investigated within an extended version of the one dimensional Kondo lattice model in which effects stemming from the electron-lattice and on-site Coulomb interactions are explicitly included. After bosonizing the conduction electrons, is it observed that intrinsic inhomogeneities with the statistical scaling properties of a Griffiths phase appear, and determine the spin structure of the localized impurities. The appearance of the inhomogeneities is enhanced by appropriate phonons and acts destructively on the spin ordering. The inhomogeneities appear on well defined length scales, can be compared to the formation of intrinsic mesoscopic metastable patterns which are found in two-fluid systems.

On the Borchers Class of a Non-Commutative Field

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this paper, we arrive at the notion of equivalence classes of a non-commutative field exploring some ideas by Soloviev to nonlocal quantum fields. Specifically, an equivalence relation between non-commutative fields is formulated by replacing the weak relative locality condition by a weak relative asymptotic commutativity property, generalizing the notion of relative locality proved by Borchers in the framework of local QFT. We restrict ourselves to the simplest case of a scalar field theory with space-space non-commutativity.

description: The article proves that the existing version of the special theory of relativity (STR), based on the postulated principle of non-exceeding the speed of light, is incorrect. Therefore, an alternative version of STR, based on the experimentally proven principle of the physical reality of imaginary numbers, is proposed. And from the alterna�tive version of STR follows the existence of invisible universes with their own super-civilizations. Therefore, attempts to establish contacts with extraterrestrial super-civilizations of our visible universe as a result of flights to the Moon and Mars or as a result of the detection of their activity in other star systems thousands of light years from Earth are unnecessary, since the inhabitants of super-civilizations are also on Earth. They even send us mes�sages, for example in the form of so-called ‘crop circles’. But since we were not intellectually advanced enough to read these messages, our human civilization did not interest them. And any of our contacts with them, apart from their desire, are impossible. Therefore, the way out of this situation is to transform the existing human civi�lization into super-civilization through the creation and use of human-computer super-intelligence.
Random points, convex bodies, lattices

Publisher: name: arXiv

description: Assume $K$ is a convex body in $R^d$, and $X$ is a (large) finite subset of $K$. How many convex polytopes are there whose vertices come from $X$? What is the typical shape of such a polytope? How well the largest such polytope (which is actually $\conv X$) approximates $K$? We are interested in these questions mainly in two cases. The first is when $X$ is a random sample of $n$ uniform, independent points from $K$ and is motivated by Sylvester's four-point problem, and by the theory of random polytopes. The second case is when $X=K \cap Z^d$ where $Z^d$ is the lattice of integer points in $R^d$. Motivation comes from integer programming and geometry of numbers. The two cases behave quite similarly.
The diffractive saturable loss mechanism in Kerr-lens mode-locked lasers: direct observation and simulation

description: Passive mode-locking critically relies on a saturable loss mechanism to form ultrashort pulses. However, in Kerr-lens mode-locking (KLM), no actual absorption takes place, but rather losses appear due to diffraction, and actual light must escape the cavity. The Kerr-lens effect works to generate through diffraction an effective instantaneous saturable absorber that delicately depends on the interplay between the spatial and temporal profiles of the pulse. Despite the importance of KLM as a technique for generating ultrafast pulses and the fundamental role of the diffraction losses in its operation, these losses were never directly observed. Here, we measure the light that leaks out due to diffraction losses in a hard-aperture Kerr-lens mode-locked Ti:Sapphire laser, and compare the measured results with a numerical theory that explicitly calculates the spatio-temporal behavior of the pulse.

description: Industry standards for cow evaluations based on calf performance typically use Most Probable Producing Ability, which does not consider performance past weaning. In more recent years technologies such as grid marketing and individual animal identification have provided more data in later stages of fed cattle production and brought about opportunities to enhance cow evaluation. This study suggests two methods of cow evaluation using lifetime performance of calves; one on individual cows and one using cows grouped by age. Even with unaccounted variation of sires, some cows consistently produced an above- or below-average finished animal. Younger cows and very old cows typically produced calves with lower lifetime returns, but causes varied between efficiency, weight, and carcass quality. Both methods highlight calf performance relationships and show potential for enhancing management decision-making.
Relativistic Bell Test within Quantum Reference Frames

description: A still widely debated question in the field of relativistic quantum information is whether entanglement and the degree of violation of Bell's inequalities for massive relativistic particles are frame independent or not. At the core of this question is the effect that spin gets entangled with the momentum degree of freedom at relativistic velocities. Here, we show that Bell's inequalities for a pair of particles can be maximally violated in a special-relativistic regime, even without any post-selection of the momentum of the particles. To this end, we use the methodology of quantum reference frames, which allows us to transform the problem to the rest frame of a particle, whose state can be in a superposition of relativistic momenta from the viewpoint of the laboratory frame. We show that, when the relative motion of two particles is non-collinear, the optimal measurements for violation of Bell's inequalities in the laboratory frame involve "coherent Wigner rotations". Moreover, the degree of violation of Bell's inequalities is independent of the choice of the quantum reference frame. Our results open up the possibility of extending entanglement-based quantum communication protocols to relativistic regimes.

World food prices and poverty in Indonesia

description: Spikes in international food prices in 2007–2008 worsened poverty incidence in Indonesia, both rural and urban, but only by small amounts. The paper reaches this conclusion using a multisectoral and multihousehold general equilibrium model of the Indonesian economy. The negative effect on poor consumers, operating through their living costs, outweighed the positive effect on poor farmers, operating through their incomes. Indonesia’s post-2004 rice import restrictions shielded its internal rice market from the temporary world price increases, muting the increase in poverty. But it did this only by imposing large and permanent increases in both domestic rice prices and poverty incidence. Poverty incidence increased more among rural than urban people, even though higher agricultural prices mean higher incomes for many of the rural poor. Gains to poor farmers were outweighed by the losses incurred by the large number of rural poor who are net buyers of food, and the fact that food represents a large share of their total budgets, even larger on average than for the urban poor. The main beneficiaries of higher food prices are not the rural poor, but the owners of agricultural land and capital, many of whom are urban based.
AGN jet feedback on a moving mesh: gentle cluster heating by weak shocks and lobe disruption

description: While there is overwhelming observational evidence of AGN-driven jets in galaxy clusters and groups, if and how the jet energy is delivered to the ambient medium remains unanswered. Here we perform very high resolution AGN jet simulations within a live, cosmologically evolved cluster with the moving mesh code AREPO. We find that mock X-ray and radio lobe properties are in good agreement with observations with different power jets transitioning from FR-I to FR-II-like morphologies. During the lobe inflation phase, heating by both internal and bow shocks contributes to lobe energetics, and $\sim 40$ per cent of the feedback energy goes into the $PdV$ work done by the expanding lobes. Low power jets are more likely to simply displace gas during lobe inflation, but higher power jets become more effective at driving shocks and heating the intracluster medium (ICM), although shocks rarely exceed $\mathcal{M}\sim 2-3$. Once the lobe inflation phase ceases, cluster weather significantly impacts the lobe evolution. Lower power jet lobes are more readily disrupted and mixed with the ICM, depositing up to $\sim 70$ per cent of the injected energy, however, ultimately the equivalent of $\gtrsim 50$ per cent of the feedback energy ends up as potential energy of the system. Even though the mean ICM entropy is increased up to $80$~Myr after the jets switch off, AGN heating is gentle, inducing no large variations in cluster radial profiles in accord with observations.

description: Edward F. Domino, MD, was a pioneering neuropharmacologist, Professor Emeritus of Pharmacology at the University of Michigan, where he spent nearly all his career, and was a coiner of the term “dissociative anesthesia”. Ed was born in Chicago in 1924. He served as an electronics technician in the Navy in World War II. Afterward, he graduated from the University of Illinois with bachelor degrees in electrical engineering and “premedicine.” He remained at the University of Illinois for his MD and MS (pharmacology) degrees. Ed and his collaborators pioneered the study of phencyclidine and ketamine. In 1953, Ed obtained a position in the Department of Pharmacology at the University of Michigan. His Department Chair, Dr. Maurice Seevers, encouraged him to study in animal models the Parke Davis drug, phencyclidine, promising him a grant that would support the initiation of his research career. That study was the first to describe similarity between phencyclidine effects in healthy individuals and schizophrenia. Ed’s pivotal characterization of the behavioral and neural effects of the phencyclidine derivative, ketamine, stands as the key accomplishment of his career. Ketamine was shorter-acting and less potent than phencyclidine. Ketamine’s ease of use, safety, tolerability, and antinociceptive effects have made it among the most successful human and veterinary anesthetic agents, globally. Ed’s seemingly limitless passion for scientific innovation led him to make contributions to many areas of science throughout his long career. He pursued a deep understanding of the neuropsychopharmacology of ketamine. In the 1960s, he and his collaborators also studied the psychedelics. Later, he explored cannabis and nicotine effects on brain function. His work spanned research conducted in rodents, non-human primates, healthy humans, and patient populations. He collaborated with scientists around the world, who were drawn to his creativity and magnetic enthusiasm; traits that were characteristic of him throughout his career. In collaboration with these scientists, he became engaged in research utilizing approaches and technologies that emerged relatively late in his career including molecular genetics, positron emission tomography and functional magnetic resonance imaging. Dr. Domino died November 3, 2021 at the age of 96. Sources: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41386-022-01280-x Accessed 07 June 2023.
Interfuel substitution in Australia: a way forward to achieve environmental sustainability

description: This paper examines the possibilities for interfuel substitution in Australia in view of the need to shift towards a cleaner mix of fuels and technologies tomeet future energydemand and environmental goals. The translog cost function is estimated for the aggregate economy, the manufacturing sector and its subsectors, and the electricity generation subsector. The advantages of this work over previous literature relating to the Australian case are that it uses relatively recent data, focuses on energy-intensive subsectors and estimates the Morishima elasticities of substitution. The empirical evidence shown herein indicates weak-form substitutability between different energy types, and higher possibilities for substitution at lower levels of aggregation, compared with the aggregate economy. For the electricity generation subsector, which is at the centre of the CO2 emissions problem in Australia, significant but weak substitutability exists between coal and gas when the price of coal changes. A higher substitution possibility exists between coal and oil in this subsector. The evidence for the own- and cross-price elasticities, together with the results for fuel efficiencies, indicates that a large increase in relative prices could be justified to further stimulate the market for low-emission technologies.

description: Rock lobster fisheries are Australia’s most valuable wild fisheries in terms of both value of production and value of exports. Different states harvest and export different lobster species, with most of the landings being sent to the Hong Kong market. A perception in the Australian lobster industry is that the different species are independent on the export market, such that a change in landings of one species has no impact on the price of the others. This study investigates the market integration of Australian exports to Hong Kong for the four species and different exporting states. Our results indicate all four species and producers/export states are perceived to be substitutes for one another, so that, in the long run, prices paid to operators in the industry will move together. The integrated nature of the Hong Kong export market for Australian lobster suggests that the potential impacts of alternative fisheries management and development strategies at state and species levels cannot be considered in isolation, at least from an economic perspective. In addition, impacts of external shocks affecting production in one state (e.g. climate change) can be expected to affect all Australian lobster fisheries.

description: We analyse the economic implications of climate-driven pressures on the pasturebased dairy sector in Australia. We use an integrated assessment model that includes a climate scenario generator, a climate-biophysical response framework and an economywide analytical framework. For the climate scenario generator, we use data from the OzClim database of the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation. For the climate-biophysical response framework, we use the DairyMod model with inputs of changes in climate variables from OzClim to quantify climate change effects on pasture growth and productivity. For the economywide analytical framework, we use the National Integrated Assessment Model to quantify the economic implications of these effects on the dairy sector. The simulated pattern of regional changes in dairy output is not a simple function of the changes in dairy productivity. Our results show that the relative size of productivity changes across regions affects the relative competitive advantage of dairy-producing regions. Several factors affect the regional distribution of simulated dairy-output changes, including substitution among sources of dairy output and competition for inputs like supplementary feed. An increased output in regions with moderate reductions in dairy productivity may occur because the severely climate-affected regions absorb the greatest loss in output.

description: Loretta Finnegan, M.D., is a champion of medication-assisted treatment with methadone, developing her scoring system for newborns more than 40 years ago. The Finnegan Neonatal Abstinence Scoring System (FNASS) assigns a numerical score to 21 clinical signs, and babies are treated accordingly. Developing the test was an important step in making sure that these babies were treated with morphine, if necessary, to manage the symptoms of withdrawal. The work of Dr. Finnegan goes far beyond the Finnegan score. When Dr. Finnegan first started an opioid treatment program at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia, 44 years ago, she opened a landmark program for pregnant women addicted to opioids. Since then, the program, called Maternal Addiction Treatment Education and Research (MATER), has included intensive outpatient treatment as well as residential treatment. Dr. Finnegan retired as Director of MATER.

description: During powder production, the pre-alloyed powder composition often deviates from the target composition leading to undesirable properties of additive manufacturing (AM) components. Therefore, we developed a method to perform high-throughput calculation and uncertainty quantification by using a CALPHAD-based ICME framework (CALPHAD: calculations of phase diagrams, ICME: integrated computational materials engineering) to optimize the composition, and took the high-strength low-alloy steel (HSLA) as a case study. We analyzed the process-structure-property relationships for 450,000 compositions around the nominal composition of HSLA-115. Properties that are critical for the performance, such as yield strength, impact transition temperature, and weldability, were evaluated to optimize the composition. With the same uncertainty as the initial composition, an optimized average composition has been determined, which increased the probability of achieving successful AM builds by 44.7%. The present strategy is general and can be applied to other alloy composition optimization to expand the choices of alloy for additive manufacturing. Such a method also calls for high-quality CALPHAD databases and predictive ICME models.

Towards a paradigm of learning to learn for lifelong learning : Vancouver School Board teachers' conceptualizations and practices
Creators: name: Carty, Margaret A
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: What does 21st century learning look like? What are the skills and attitudes needed for lifelong learning in our present world climate? Today's climate of globalization and constant technological change presents new challenges to an education system founded during the industrial revolution on a world and way of learning that in many ways is no longer representative of current times. Learning to learn is a widely-discussed concept, deemed a necessity for lifelong learning, but few attempt to define it in any concrete terms. Even fewer have made practical attempts to implement and integrate learning to learn concepts into the curriculum of school systems. This study analyzes how a group of 'Vancouver elementary school teachers conceptualize learning to learn, how they attempt to implement learning to learn skills and dispositions in their classrooms, and how they feel our present school system helps and hinders the development of lifelong learners. It furthermore compares and contrasts between these findings and the best practices on learning to learn culled from the literature.

description: Frederick B. Glaser received his M.D. from Harvard University in 1959 and then served his residency at the U.S. Public Health Service Narcotics Hospital in Lexington, Kentucky. In his interview, he recalls many aspects of his time at Lexington, including the bias against the substance use field at that time, memorable patients, and relations among staff from different disciplines. Glaser went on to have a distinguished career in the field of substance abuse, including the study of opioids and alcohol. In particular, he argued for a range of treatment approaches to address the complex problem of excessive drinking. He has held a variety of positions in the United States and Canada, serving as the director of the University of Michigan Substance Abuse Research Center from 1989 to 1994 before becoming Professor of Psychiatry and Director of the Division on Substance Abuse at the East Carolina University School of Medicine. He is now retired in Greenville, North Carolina. Source: Transcript.

Efficient Calculation of Crossing Symmetric BCJ Tree Numerators

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this paper, we propose an improved method for directly calculating double-copy-compatible tree numerators in (super-)Yang-Mills and Yang-Mills-scalar theories. Our new scheme gets rid of any explicit dependence on reference orderings, restoring a form of crossing symmetry to the numerators. This in turn improves the computational efficiency of the algorithm, allowing us to go well beyond the number of external particles accessible with the reference order based methods. Motivated by a parallel study of one-loop BCJ numerators from forward limits, we explore the generalization to include a pair of fermions. To improve the accessiblity of the new algorithm, we provide a Mathematica package that implements the numerator construction. The structure of the computation also provides for a straightforward introduction of minimally-coupled massive particles potentially useful for future computations in both classical and quantum gravity.

description: Motivated by improving performance of a bi-stable vibration energy harvester (VEH) from the viewpoint of vibration control, the time-delayed feedback control of displacement and velocity are constructively proposed into an electromechanical coupled VEH mounted on a rotational automobile tire, which is subject to colored noise and the periodic excitation. Using the improved stochastic averaging procedure based on energy-dependent frequency, the expressions of stationary probability density (SPD) and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) are obtained analytically. Then, the efficiency of time-delayed feedback control on the stationary response and stochastic resonance (SR) for the delay-controlled VEH is explored in detail theoretically. Results show that both noise-induced SR and delay-induced SR can occur. Time delay is able to not only enhance the SR behavior but also weaken it. Furthermore, a larger negative feedback gain of displacement and a larger positive feedback gain of velocity are more beneficial for VEH. Interesting finding is that the optimal combination of time delay in maximizing the harvested performance, such as the harvest power, the output RMS voltage and the power conversion efficiency, is almost perfectly consistent with that in maximizing SNR. Compared with the uncontrolled VEH, the delay-controlled VEH can achieve certain desirable optimization in harvesting energy by choosing the appropriate combination of time delays and feedback gains.

description: The land-use optimisation framework, NZFARM, has been promoted as a tool that can be used to assess the economic and environmental impacts of policy on regional land use. This paper outlines how methodological limitations presently restrict its capacity to provide meaningful insight into the relative value of alternative land-use configurations. The model is calibrated using positive mathematical programming, which has been shown in the literature to result in models that yield arbitrary output outside of the calibrated baseline. There is a high likelihood that this is the case, as no validation appears to have been carried out. Significant model development will be required before NZFARM outputs can be used with any confidence to inform future policy development. We conclude with suggestions on how NZFARM and models of its kind can be further developed to improve their capacity for meaningful simulation.
