description: في العقود الاخيرة أصبحت مشكلة الفساد وسوء الحكم على المستوى العالمي والمحلي، تحظى باهتمام متزايد من قبل المجتمع الدولي، خاصة في الدول النامية، التي عانت شعوبها طويلا من الفقر وسوء الظروف الاجتماعية، بسبب فساد الحوكمة العمومية، والاستغلال السيئ للمساعدات التنموية من قبل الحاكمين والقائمين على الشأن العام. وبعد القصور الذي أبانت عنه سياسة التنمية التي تم رسمها من قبل مؤسسات التنمية الدولية، تم تبني توجه تنموي دولي جديد أعاد إحياء دور المساعدات التنموية، ووضعها في قلب العلاقات السياسية الدولية، وتوجيه جهود المانحين لجعل مساعداتها أكثر فعالية في إصلاح إدارة الحكم، وتعزيز الآليات القاونية لمكافحة الفساد وتحقيق أهداف الألفية للتنمية. وهو ما أثر بشكل واضح على توجيه أولويات ومجالات تدخل المؤسسات الدولية الفاعلة في التنمية، خاصة بعد اقرارها الصريح بفشل سياسة الاصلاح الهيكلي. Over the past decades, the problem of corruption and poor governance at the global and local levels has attracted the attention of the international community; especially in developing countries whose population suffers from poverty and poor social conditions, due to the corruption of public governance and the misuse of development aid by leaders and public officials. As a result of the development policy shortcomings described by international development institutions, a new international development tendency was adopted that reintroduced the role of development aid, placed it at the heart of international political relations and directed donor efforts to make its aid more effective in reforming governance, strengthening legal mechanisms to fight corruption and achieve the Millennium Development Goals. This has clearly affected the direction of the priorities of international institutions and their areas of intervention, especially after its explicit recognition of the failure of the structural reform policy.

description: A new method of extracting the low-lying energy spectrum from Monte Carlo estimates of Euclidean-space correlation functions which incorporates Bayesian inference is described and tested. The procedure fully exploits the information present in the correlation functions at small temporal separations and uses this information in a way consistent with fundamental probabilistic hypotheses. The computed errors on the best-fit energies include both statistical uncertainties and systematic errors associated with the treatment of contamination from higher-lying stationary states. Difficulties in performing the integrals needed to compute these error estimates are briefly discussed.

Finite-size spherical particles in a square duct flow of an elastoviscoplastic fluid: an experimental study

description: The present experimental study addresses the flow of a Yield Stress Fluid with some elasticity (Carbopol gel) in a square duct. The behaviour of two fluids with lower and higher yield stress is investigated at multiple Reynolds numbers $Re^* \in$ (1, 200) and Bingham numbers $Bi \in$ (0.01, 0.35). A secondary flow consisting of eight vortices is observed to recirculate the fluid from the corners to the core. Their extent and intensity grows with increasing $Re^*$. The second objective of this study is to explore the change in flow in the presence of particles. Almost neutrally-buoyant finite-size spherical particles with duct height, $2H$, to particle diameter, $d_p$, ratio of 12 are used at two volume fractions $ϕ$ = 5 and 10\%. Particle Tracking Velocimetry (PTV) is used to measure the velocity of these refractive-index-matched spheres, and PIV to extract the fluid velocity. Simple shadowgraphy is also used for qualitatively visualising the development of the particle distribution along the streamwise direction. The particle distribution pattern changes from being concentrated at the four corners, at low flow rates, to being focussed along a diffused ring between the center and the corners, at high flow rates. The presence of particles induces streamwise and wall-normal velocity fluctuations in the fluid phase; however, the primary Reynolds shear stress is still very small compared to turbulent flows. The size of the plug in the particle-laden cases appears to be smaller than the corresponding single phase cases. Similar to Newtonian fluids, the friction factor increases due to the presence of particles, almost independently of the suspending fluid matrix. Interestingly, predictions based on an increased effective suspension viscosity agrees quite well with the experimental friction factor for the concentrations used in this study.

description: Privacy concerns have led to the rise of federated recommender systems (FRS), which can create personalized models across distributed clients. However, FRS is vulnerable to poisoning attacks, where malicious users manipulate gradients to promote their target items intentionally. Existing attacks against FRS have limitations, as they depend on specific models and prior knowledge, restricting their real-world applicability. In our exploration of practical FRS vulnerabilities, we devise a model-agnostic and prior-knowledge-free attack, named PIECK (Popular Item Embedding based Attack). The core module of PIECK is popular item mining, which leverages embedding changes during FRS training to effectively identify the popular items. Built upon the core module, PIECK branches into two diverse solutions: The PIECKIPE solution employs an item popularity enhancement module, which aligns the embeddings of targeted items with the mined popular items to increase item exposure. The PIECKUEA further enhances the robustness of the attack by using a user embedding approximation module, which approximates private user embeddings using mined popular items. Upon identifying PIECK, we evaluate existing federated defense methods and find them ineffective against PIECK, as poisonous gradients inevitably overwhelm the cold target items. We then propose a novel defense method by introducing two regularization terms during user training, which constrain item popularity enhancement and user embedding approximation while preserving FRS performance. We evaluate PIECK and its defense across two base models, three real datasets, four top-tier attacks, and six general defense methods, affirming the efficacy of both PIECK and its defense.

description: We study the fluctuations of particles sliding on a stochastically growing surface. This problem can be mapped to motion of passive scalars in a randomly stirred Burger's flow. Renormalization group studies, simulations, and scaling arguments in one dimension, suggest a rich set of phenomena: If particles slide with the avalanche of growth sites (advection with the fluid), they tend to cluster and follow the surface dynamics. However, for particles sliding against the avalanche (anti-advection), we find slower diffusion dynamics, and density fluctuations with no simple relation to the underlying fluid, possibly with continuously varying exponents.

description: We describe a novel approach to the search for solar, near-monochromatic hadronic axions, the latter being suggested to be created in the solar core during M1 transitions between the first excited level of Li-7, at 478 keV, and the ground state. As a result of Doppler broadening, in principle these axions can be detected via resonant absorption by the same nuclide on the Earth. Excited nuclei of Li-7 are produced in the solar interior by Be-7 electron capture and thus the axions are accompanied by emission of Be-7 solar neutrinos of energy 384 keV. An experiment was made which has yielded an upper limit on hadronic axion mass of 32 keV at the 95% confidence level.

description: Neutron-star radii provide useful information on the equation of state of neutron rich matter. Particularly interesting is the density dependence of the equation of state (EOS). For example, the softening of the EOS at high density, where the pressure rises slower than anticipated, could signal a transition to an exotic phase. However, extracting the density dependence of the EOS requires measuring the radii of neutron stars for a broad range of masses. A ``normal'' 1.4 solar mass neutron star has a central density of a few times nuclear-matter saturation density. In contrast, low mass (of the order of 0.5 solar masses) neutron stars have central densities near nuclear-matter saturation density so its radius provides information on the EOS at low density. Unfortunately, low-mass stars are rare because they may be hard to form. Instead, a precision measurement of nuclear radii on atomic nuclei may contain similar information. Indeed, we find a strong correlation between the neutron radius of 208Pb and the radius of a 0.5 solar-mass neutron star. Thus, the radius of such a neutron star can be inferred from a measurement of the the neutron radius of 208Pb. Comparing this value to the measured radius of a 1.4 solar-mass neutron star should provide the strongest constraint to date on the density dependence of the equation of state.

description: The contributions of livestock to food security and poverty alleviation are coming under increasing international scrutiny, particularly as livestock producers are also challenged to respond to global warming and the emergence of new diseases. Research is vital to increase efficiency of production, to understand the importance of livestock in agricultural systems and to protect animals and people through disease control programs. For animal health research one of the challenges is to balance public and private efforts and ensure that the demands for livestock and human health are met. Lack of incentives for cooperation between the private and public sector has lead to the neglect of some important livestock diseases (for example some tick-borne diseases) and of livestock diseases than can infect people (for example brucellosis) that remain prevalent in many poor countries in Asia and Africa. New approaches are required to increase the effectiveness of private–public cooperation in developing new products including vaccines, drugs and diagnostics. Among these new approaches the Global Alliance for Livestock Veterinary Medicines (GALVMed) builds relationships at the outset of research and continually manages the partnership when results emerge, products are evaluated and opportunities arise. A second approach is to improve the access of poor livestock keepers to the markets for their livestock which in turn provides access to animal health products and the technical support to use them effectively. Australia supports projects to increase market access for livestock products and animal health inputs in many Asian and African countries. The combination of these approaches — improving the supply of appropriate product from industry, and enhancing access of poor farmers to markets — builds new pathways for research to deliver benefits to the poor.

We find Gamma(D*+) = 96 +- 4 (Statistical) +- 22 (Systematic) keV.

description: Die Nierentransplantation stellt für Patient:innen mit terminaler Niereninsuffizienz die letzte mögliche kurative Therapie sowie die einzige Alternative zur Dialyse dar. Trotz guter prophylaktischer Maßnahmen bleiben postoperative Komplikationen nicht aus. Zu den häufigsten Komplikationen zählen bakterielle Infektionen, chirurgische Komplikationen und die Transplantatabstoßung. Infektionen betreffen überwiegend den Harntrakt und am zweithäufigsten die Wunde. Risikofaktoren für infektiologische Komplikationen sowie das Keimspektrum und die Resistenzlage variieren zwischen verschiedenen Studien. Leitlinien zur perioperativen Antibiotikaprophylaxe basieren bisher auf wenigen Studien und sie wird in der Substanz und Länge der Gabe unterschiedlich gehandhabt. Ziel dieser Dissertation war, das Auftreten von infektiologischen und chirurgischen Komplikationen am UKT und deren Einfluss auf die Transplantatfunktion zu untersuchen. Die Wahl der perioperativen Antibiotikaprophylaxe soll auf ihre Wirksamkeit in der Vorbeugung von infektiologischen Komplikationen untersucht werden. Ferner wurde die Richtlinientreue bei der Diagnosestellung der Infektionen und deren Therapie überprüft. Die Datensammlung erfolgte retrospektiv und bezog alle erwachsenen Patient:innen, die zwischen dem 01.01.2015 und dem 31.08.2020 eine Nierentransplantation am UKT erhielten, mit ein. Es konnten Risikofaktoren wie ein höheres Alter und ein höherer BMI für die Entstehung von einfachen Harnwegsinfektionen gefunden werden. Die PJP Prophylaxe erwies sich als protektiv. Ein höheres Alter und Wundkomplikationen wie eine Dehiszenz, ein Hämatom oder eine Urinleckage waren Risikofaktoren für eine Wundinfektion. Einen Vorteil einer verlängerten perioperativen Antibiotikagabe vs. einer einmaligen Gabe oder einen Vorteil einer bestimmten Substanz konnte nicht gefunden werden. Das Auftreten einer Harnwegsinfektion hatte einen negativen Einfluss auf die Nierenfunktion. Die antibiotische Behandlung einer asymptomatischen Bakteriurie zeigte keinen positiven Einfluss auf die Transplantatfunktion. Generell führten asymptomatische Bakteriurien, im Gegensatz zu Harnwegsinfektionen, zu keiner schlechteren Nierenfunktion, längeren Aufenthaltsdauer oder häufigeren Dialysepflicht. Interventionsbedürftige Hämatome zeigten als einzige chirurgische Komplikation einen negativen Einfluss auf die GFR. Zusammenfassend scheint die (verlängerte) perioperative Breitbandantibiose, hinsichtlich der Vermeidung von Wundinfektionen und frühen Harnwegsinfektionen, einer Einzelgabe nicht überlegen zu sein. Dennoch gilt es nach Möglichkeit, Harnwegs- und Wundinfektionen zu vermeiden, da diese einen negativen Einfluss auf das Transplantatüberleben zu haben scheinen.
Synchrotron self absorption and the minimum energy of optically thick radio flares from stellar mass black holes

description: We consider the case of radio flares from black hole X-ray binaries in which the flare spectrum evolves from optically thick to optically thin, under the assumption that this is due to decreasing optical depth to synchrotron self absorption. We are able to place upper and lower limits on the size of the emitting region associated with a radio flare, and determine the synchrotron source magnetic field and energy as a function of size. The energy has a clear minimum which occurs close to the condition that the magnetic field derived from synchrotron self absorption equals that calculated from equipartition. This minimum energy estimate is independent of the rise time of the event, and so may be applied to any event for which the peak flux is measured and there is evidence for self-absorption. This is a much more accurate approach to minimum energy estimation than assuming expansion at close to the speed of light. We apply this method to four examples of optically thick radio flares and find that in each case either the filling factor of the synchrotron source is considerably less than unity, or the expansion speed is considerably less than the speed of light. The combination of unity filling factor and expansion speeds close to the speed of light is completely ruled out on energetic grounds for three of the four events we consider. The inferred slowed expansion is consistent with detailed modelling of such events which has been recently reported in the literature. The minimum power requirements associated with the flares are found to be ~ 1e36 erg/s, which are easily accomodated in the context of stellar mass black hole accretion at near-Eddington levels, when these flares typically occur. However, the true jet power could still be orders of magnitude higher.

Crop Production/Industries

description: Mechanisation of agriculture is fundamental to reducing poverty and improving lifestyle and food security in the developing world. Large populations are escaping subsistence agriculture, and there is a broad consensus that conservation agriculture (CA) is the only sustainable approach to cropping. Equipment for CA could be a major focus of R&D activity by the global farm machinery industry, but this is not happening. Land preparation, seeding and harvesting units are the machine tools of agriculture, and must fit production systems. Tillage might be unnecessary, but tractor tillage-based systems have been the basis of the farm machinery industry. Conservation agriculture still lacks seeding equipment that is effective over a broad range of conditions, and machine-width variability of soil and residues is a fundamental problem. Precision guidance and compatibility with permanent raised-bed and controlled-traffic cropping systems should represent major opportunities, but are not attractive commercial R&D investment propositions for the farm machinery industry. While industry and farmers will enjoy significant benefits from the adoption of CA, the community will be the major single beneficiary, via the reduced environmental footprint of a crop production system which is essential for food security.

description: The world food crisis, exacerbated by accelerating climate change and the global financial crisis, requires that agricultural scientists solve ever more complex problems. Public–private partnerships will play a more critical role in developing agricultural technologies for developing nations to improve farm productivity and alleviate global hunger. In order to make public–private partnerships work, we must move from the ‘sector mentality’ and focus on combinatorial solutions resolving the most pressing issues. Critical observations from past and current efforts are helpful in designing new relationships and approaches towards driving innovation. Aggressively supporting the development of mutually-beneficial partnerships with a novel mindset will ensure that we fully exploit the tremendous potential that modern technologies promise.

description: Multiplicity moments of charged particles in deep inelastic E+P scattering have been measured with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 38.4 pb^{-1}$. The moments for Q^2 > 1000 GeV^2 were studied in the current region of the Breit frame. The evolution of the moments was investigated as a function of restricted regions in polar angle and, for the first time, both in the transverse momentum and in absolute momentum of final-state particles. Analytic perturbative QCD predictions in conjunction with the hypothesis of Local Parton-Hadron Duality (LPHD) reproduce the trends of the moments in polar-angle regions, although some discrepancies are observed. For the moments restricted either in transverse or absolute momentum, the analytic results combined with the LPHD hypothesis show considerable deviations from the measurements. The study indicates a large influence of the hadronisation stage on the multiplicity distributions in the restricted phase-space regions studied here, which is inconsistent with the expectations of the LPHD hypothesis.

description: As a vast number of ingredients exist in the culinary world, there are countless food ingredient pairings, but only a small number of pairings have been adopted by chefs and studied by food researchers. In this work, we propose KitcheNette which is a model that predicts food ingredient pairing scores and recommends optimal ingredient pairings. KitcheNette employs Siamese neural networks and is trained on our annotated dataset containing 300K scores of pairings generated from numerous ingredients in food recipes. As the results demonstrate, our model not only outperforms other baseline models but also can recommend complementary food pairings and discover novel ingredient pairings.

Instability of isolated triplet excitations on the Shastry-Sutherland lattice (SSL)
Creators: name: Fledderjohann, A.
name: Muetter, K. -H.
Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Condensed Matter (cond-mat)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Configurations of singlets and triplets on the SSL have been proposed in the literature as variational ground states of the Shastry-Sutherland model at fixed magnetization M. We prove, that isolated triplet excitations on the SSL are unstable if the coupling alpha falls below a critical value alpha_c=2.0 (approx.). The instability should be visible in the compound SrCu_2(BO_3)_2 where a coupling alpha^*=1.48 is realized.

description: We show how the universal low-energy properties of Weyl semimetals with spatially varying time-reversal (TR) or inversion (I) symmetry breaking are described in terms of chiral fermions experiencing curved-\emph{spacetime} geometry and synthetic gauge fields. By employing Clifford representations and Schrieffer-Wolff transformations, we present a systematic derivation of an effective curved-space Weyl theory with rich geometric and gauge structure. To illustrate the utility of the formalism, we give a concrete prescription of how to fabricate nontrivial curved spacetimes and event horizons in topological insulators with magnetic textures. Our theory can also account for strain-induced effects, providing a powerful unified framework for studying and designing inhomogeneous Weyl materials.

description: We report on electron identification methods and their performance in the Belle experiment at the KEK-B asymmetric B-Factory $e^{+} e^{-}$ storage ring. Electrons are selected using a likelihood approach that takes information from the electromagnetic calorimeter, the central drift chamber, and the silica aerogel Cherenkov counters as input. We achieve an electron identification efficiency of $(92.4 \pm 0.4)%$ with a $π^{\pm}$ fake rate of $(0.25 \pm 0.02)%$ for the momentum range between 1.0 GeV/$c$ and 3.0 GeV/$c$ in laboratory frame.

description: We present a method for single-shot three-dimensional imaging through scattering media with a three-dimensional memory effect. In the proposed computational process, a captured speckle image is two-dimensionally correlated with different scales, and the object is three-dimensionally recovered with three-dimensional phase retrieval. Our method was experimentally demonstrated with a lensless setup and was compared with a multi-shot approach used in our previous work [Y. Okamoto, et al., Opt. Lett. 44, 2526-2529 (2019)].

Obnoxious Markets
Creators: name: Kanbur, Ravi

Publisher: name: Unknown
Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: Marketing
subject: FOS: Economics and business

description: Certain markets evoke popular discomfort, distrust and even outrage. Trade in arms, drugs, toxic waste, child labor and body parts, for example, elicits these reactions to different degrees. This paper asks—what is it about some markets that brings about these responses? It is argued that three key parameters—extremity, agency and inequality—have a bearing on our intuitive reactions and serve to differentiate markets. The more extreme are the likely outcomes of a market, the further is the agent who acts in the market from agents who bear the consequences of those actions, and the greater is the degree of inequality in market relations, the more likely it is that the operation of the market will provoke discomfort. At the extreme, when outcomes are potentially extreme, agency is minimal and market relations are highly unequal, the market in question may deserve the label “obnoxious”. However, it is not obvious that the best or only answer to an obnoxious market is to attempt to ban it. The forces underlying the market may not disappear, and such attempted bans may in fact intensify the problems of extremity, agency and inequality. While judicious regulation remains an important tool, a complementary approach is to address the underlying issues directly—extremity through safety nets, agency through information, and inequality through redistribution.

Subjects: subject: Social and Information Networks (cs.SI)

subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: The present study argues that political communication on social media is mediated by a platform's digital architecture, defined as the technical protocols that enable, constrain, and shape user behavior in a virtual space. A framework for understanding digital architectures is introduced, and four platforms (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Snapchat) are compared along the typology. Using the 2016 US election as a case, interviews with three Republican digital strategists are combined with social media data to qualify the studyies theoretical claim that a platform's network structure, functionality, algorithmic filtering, and datafication model affect political campaign strategy on social media.
Isospin-Dependence of $π^-/π^+$ Ratio and Density-Dependence of Nuclear Symmetry Energy

description: The $π^-/π^+$ ratio is examined as a function of isospin asymmetry and beam energy for central collisions induced by neutron-rich nuclei within an isospin-dependent hadronic transport model. The $π^-/π^+$ ratio is found to increase with the isospin asymmetry, but decrease with the beam energy of the reaction. For neutron-rich systems, such as, $^{124}Sn+^{124}Sn$ and $^{132}Sn+^{124}Sn$, the sensitivity of $π^-/π^+$ ratio to nuclear symmetry energy is almost beam energy independent.
