description: Excerpts from the report: During the last year agriculture as a whole has made further progress toward normal stability. Apparently the heavy net movement of population away from the farms has declined. Farmers have paid off a substantial amount of indebtedness. Increased sales of fertilizers, machinery, fencing, and building materials indicate that the farm productive plant is being restored. The trend of total crop acreage has been slightly downward in recent years, while population has been steadily increasing. The production of the principal crops has been at approximately the 1919 level during the last three years. Marketings of meat animals, on the other hand, declined materially during 1925 and represent the turn from the peak of the animal production cycle, reached in 1924. In short, agricultural production has been so readjusted that the farming industry as a whole is now in the best general position since 1920. An important feature of this readjustment has been the better general balance finally achieved in livestock production. However, feed-crop acreages last year were so large that the production of most of these crops resulted in prices too low to be satisfactory to those who raise such crops for sale. Farm products, taken all together, still stand at a disparity in exchange for industrial goods and services. Any general expansion in production at this time would tend to place agriculture in a less favorable economic position.

description: Diluted axion star, a self-gravitating object with the quantum pressure balancing gravity, has been predicted in many models with a QCD axion or axion-like particle. It can be formed in the early universe and composes a sizable fraction of dark matter. One could detect the transient radio signals when it passes by a magnetar with the axion particle converted into photon in the magnetic field. Using both numerical and semi-analytic approaches, we simulate the axion star's dynamic evolution and estimate the fraction of axion particles that can have a resonance conversion during such a collision event. We have found that both self-gravity and quantum pressure are not important after the diluted axion star enters the Roche radius. A free-fall approximate can capture individual particle trajectories very well. With some optimistic cosmological and astrophysical assumptions, the QCD axion parameter space can be probed from detecting such a collision event by radio telescopes.

description: We continue the analysis of perturbations in vector inflation. The dominant theme of this paper is the long wavelength limit of perturbations in small fields inflation and the controversial issue of its linear stability. We explain the nature of longitudinal modes, describe how they evolve, and show that they are not as harmful as it could seem at the first glance. On the other hand, the gravitational waves instability in large fields models is shown explicitly. It strongly limits a potential applicability of the recently proposed (delta N)-type approach to vector inflationary perturbations. Finally, we expose a problem of an extra (gravitational) degree of freedom which appears whenever the vector fields are non-minimally coupled to gravity.

description: Excerpts from the report: The livestock industries have been in relatively favorable position during the past year and they continue to represent the strength of the situation as agriculture enters the new season. Farmers suffered some severe reduction in prices of their leading crops, however, notably in the case of cotton, grains, and fruit. The value of the principal crops, based upon prices December 1, 1926, was $7,802,000,000 compared with $8,789,000,000 a year ago. In consequence the conditions in certain important producing regions have shown no improvement within a year. The disparity between prices of farm products and the cost of industrial goods and services is greater than a year ago. Whether this trend is to continue during 1927 apparently depends in part upon how effective a readjustment is made in certain cash crop acreages and upon the character of the glowing season. Production costs in certain lines may be slightly lower this year than last. The situation is clearly such as to discourage any general expansion of agricultural production. In some areas it apparently means a greater utilization of lands for pasture and forestry.

description: High-accurate machine learning (ML) image classifiers cannot guarantee that they will not fail at operation. Thus, their deployment in safety-critical applications such as autonomous vehicles is still an open issue. The use of fault tolerance mechanisms such as safety monitors is a promising direction to keep the system in a safe state despite errors of the ML classifier. As the prediction from the ML is the core information directly impacting safety, many works are focusing on monitoring the ML model itself. Checking the efficiency of such monitors in the context of safety-critical applications is thus a significant challenge. Therefore, this paper aims at establishing a baseline framework for benchmarking monitors for ML image classifiers. Furthermore, we propose a framework covering the entire pipeline, from data generation to evaluation. Our approach measures monitor performance with a broader set of metrics than usually proposed in the literature. Moreover, we benchmark three different monitor approaches in 79 benchmark datasets containing five categories of out-of-distribution data for image classifiers: class novelty, noise, anomalies, distributional shifts, and adversarial attacks. Our results indicate that these monitors are no more accurate than a random monitor. We also release the code of all experiments for reproducibility.

description: A magnetic Weyl semimetal is a recent focus of extensive research as it may exhibit large and robust transport phenomena associated with topologically protected Weyl points in momentum space. Since a magnetic texture provides a handle for the configuration of the Weyl points and its transport response, understanding of magnetic dynamics should form a basis of future control of a topological magnet. Mn3Sn is an example of an antiferromagnetic Weyl semimetal that exhibits a large response comparable to the one observed in ferromagnets despite a vanishingly small magnetization. The non-collinear spin order in Mn3Sn can be viewed as a ferroic order of cluster magnetic octupole and breaks the time-reversal symmetry, stabilizing Weyl points and the significantly enhanced Berry curvature near the Fermi energy. Here we report our first observation of time-resolved octupole oscillation in Mn3Sn. In particular, we find the giant effective damping of the octupole dynamics, and it is feasible to conduct an ultrafast switching at < 10 ps, a hundred times faster than the case of spin-magnetization in a ferromagnet. Moreover, high domain wall velocity over 10 km/s is theoretically predicted. Our work paves the path towards realizing ultrafast electronic devices using the topological antiferromagnet.
International Agricultural Trade under Regulatory Asymmetry: An Economic Analysis of SME Export Behavior
Creators: name: Leishman, David <1968>
Publisher: name: Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna
Year: 2012
Subjects: AGR/01 Economia ed estimo rurale

description: Over the last three decades, international agricultural trade has grown significantly.   Technological advances in transportation logistics and storage have created opportunities to ship anything almost anywhere.  Bilateral and multilateral trade agreements have also opened new pathways to an increasingly global market place.  Yet, international agricultural trade is often constrained by differences in regulatory regimes.   The impact of “regulatory asymmetry” is particularly acute for small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) that lack resources and expertise to successfully operate in markets that have substantially different regulatory structures.   As governments seek to encourage the development of SMEs, policy makers often confront the critical question of what ultimately motivates SME export behavior.    Specifically, there is considerable interest in understanding how SMEs confront the challenges of regulatory asymmetry.  Neoclassical models of the firm generally emphasize expected profit maximization under uncertainty, however these approaches do not adequately explain the entrepreneurial decision under regulatory asymmetry.   Behavioral theories of the firm offer a far richer understanding of decision making by taking into account aspirations and adaptive performance in risky environments.  This paper develops an analytical framework for decision making of a single agent.  Considering risk, uncertainty and opportunity cost, the analysis focuses on the export behavior response of an SME in a situation of regulatory asymmetry.  Drawing on the experience of fruit processor in Muzaffarpur, India, who must consider different regulatory environments when shipping fruit treated with sulfur dioxide, the study dissects the firm-level decision using @Risk, a Monte Carlo computational tool.
Essays on Regional Development and Internationalisation

Publisher: name: Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna
Year: 2012
Subjects: SECS-P/02 Politica economica

description: This collection of essays examines various aspects of regional development and the issues of internationalization.
The first essay investigates the implications of the impressive growth of China from a rural-urban perspective and addresses the topic of convergence in China by employing a non-parametrical approach to study the distribution dynamics of per capita income at province, rural and urban levels.  To better understand the degree of inequality characterizing China and the long-term predictions of convergence or divergence of its different territorial aggregations, the second essay formulates a composite indicator of Regional Development (RDI) to benchmark development at province and sub-province level. The RDI goes beyond the uni-dimensional concept of development, generally proxied by the GDP per capita, and gives attention to the rural-urban dimension. The third essay “Internationalization and Trade Specialization in Italy. The role of China in the international intra-firm trade of the Italian regions” - deals with another aspect of regional economic development: the progressive de-industrialisation and de-localization of the local production. This essay looks at the trade specialization of selected Italian regions (those regions specialized in manufacturing) and the fragmentation of the local production on a global scale. China represents in this context an important stakeholder and the paper documents the importance of this country in the regional intra-firm trade.

description: Adaptive Monte Carlo methods are recent variance reduction techniques. In this work, we propose a mathematical setting which greatly relaxes the assumptions needed by for the adaptive importance sampling techniques presented by Vazquez-Abad and Dufresne, Fu and Su, and Arouna. We establish the convergence and asymptotic normality of the adaptive Monte Carlo estimator under local assumptions which are easily verifiable in practice. We present one way of approximating the optimal importance sampling parameter using a randomly truncated stochastic algorithm. Finally, we apply this technique to some examples of valuation of financial derivatives.

description: Electron dynamics in external electric fields governs the behavior of solid-state electronic devices. First-principles calculations enable precise predictions of charge transport in low electric fields. However, studies of high-field electron dynamics remain elusive due to a lack of accurate and broadly applicable methods. Here we develop an efficient approach to solve the real-time Boltzmann transport equation with both the electric field term and ab initio electron-phonon collisions. These simulations provide field-dependent electronic distributions in the time domain, allowing us to investigate both transient and steady-state transport in electric fields ranging from low to high (>10 kV/cm). The broad capabilities of our approach are shown by computing nonequilibrium electron occupations and velocity-field curves in Si, GaAs, and graphene, obtaining results in quantitative agreement with experiment. Our approach sheds light on microscopic details of transport in high electric fields, including dominant scattering mechanisms and valley occupation dynamics. Our results demonstrate quantitatively accurate calculations of electron dynamics in low-to-high electric fields, with broad application to power- and micro-electronics, optoelectronics, and sensing.

description: The Minimal theory of Massive Gravity (MTMG) is endowed non-linearly with only two tensor modes in the gravity sector which acquire a non-zero mass. On a homogeneous and isotropic background the theory is known to possess two branches: the self-accelerating branch with a phenomenology in cosmology which, except for the mass of the tensor modes, exactly matches the one of $Λ$CDM; and the normal branch which instead shows deviation from General Relativity in terms of both background and linear perturbations dynamics. For the latter branch we study using several early and late times data sets the constraints on today's value of the graviton mass $μ_{0}$, finding that $(μ_{0}/H_{0})^{2}=0.119_{-0.098}^{+0.12}$ at $68\%$ CL, which in turn gives an upper bound at $95\%$ CL as $μ_{0}<8.4\times10^{-34}$ eV. This corresponds to the strongest bound on the mass of the graviton for the normal branch of MTMG.

Acoustic wave propagation in TTF-TCNQ
Creators: name: Tiedje, J. Thomas
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Detailed measurements have been made of the temperature dependence of the velocity of three different modes of sound propagation in TTF-TCNQ crystals, in the range 7~300K. Values for the a and b axis Young's moduli and the shear modulus c₆₆ are inferred from the sound velocities. TTF-TCNQ. is found to be stiffer perpendicular to the conducting direction than parallel to it. The elastic anisotropy is typical of crystalline solids even though the anisotropy of the electrical conductivity is unusually large'. A small (1.5%) increase in the velocity of extensicnal waves below the meta1 -insulator transition is interpreted as being due to the disappearance of the conduction electrons. A quantitative theory of the low temperature velocity anomaly leads to an accurate estimate of the q → 0 electron-phonon coupling constant. The sound velocity measurements were made using an acoustic resonance technique. Resonant modes of vibration of single crystals of TTF-TCNQ were excited electrostatically and detected capacitively using a UHF carrier signal. The detection scheme is shown to be more sensitive than conventional d.c. biased capacitive pickups. A theoretical study of the electronic contribution to the attenuation of sound in one and two dimensional metals and semiconductors is presented. The attenuation in one dimensional metals is shown to be anomalously small. In both one and two dimensional metals, in the quantum limit the attenuation depends strongly on the direction of propagation of the wave. A transport equation solution to the problem of calculating the amplification of sound waves in a solid in the presence of a d.c. electric field is described. The treatment is much less complex than any that is currently available.

description: We present measurements of resistivity and thermopower of Fe1+xTe1-ySey single crystalline samples with y=0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.45 in zero field and in a magnetic field B=8T. We propose a qualitative analysis of the temperature behavior of S, where the samples are described as almost compensated semimetals: different electron and hole bands with similar carrier concentrations compete and their relative contribution to the thermoelectric transport depends on the respective filling, mobility and coupling with phonons. For y>=0.2, superconductivity occurs and the optimum Se-doping level for a maximum Tc of 13 K turns out to be y=0.3. At low temperatures, evidence of a contribution to S by an excitation-drag mechanism is found, while at high temperatures a strikingly flat behavior of S is explained within a narrow band Hubbard model. The support of a theoretical background which could provide band resolved parameters such as carrier density, mobility and electron-phonon coupling of each band would allow to extract from our data valuable quantitative information on the transport and superconducting mechanisms of these iron chalcogenides.

description: In this article, we review our recently introduced methods for obtaining strictly positive lower bounds on the top Lyapunov exponent of high-dimensional, stochastic differential equations such as the weakly-damped Lorenz-96 (L96) model or Galerkin truncations of the 2d Navier-Stokes equations. This hallmark of chaos has long been observed in these models, however, no mathematical proof had been made for either deterministic or stochastic forcing. The method we proposed combines (A) a new identity connecting the Lyapunov exponents to a Fisher information of the stationary measure of the Markov process tracking tangent directions (the so-called "projective process"); and (B) an $L^1$-based hypoelliptic regularity estimate to show that this (degenerate) Fisher information is an upper bound on some fractional regularity. For L96 and GNSE, we then further reduce the lower bound of the top Lyapunov exponent to proving that the projective process satisfies Hörmander's condition. We review the recent contributions of the first and third author on the verification of this condition for the 2d Galerkin-Navier-Stokes equations in a rectangular, periodic box of any aspect ratio. Finally, we briefly contrast this work with our earlier work on Lagrangian chaos in the stochastic Navier-Stokes equations. We end the review with a discussion of some open problems.

description: The purpose of this phenomenological qualitative study was to understand and examine Asian international students’ adaptation in U.S. community colleges to advocate for support systems to help this often-overlooked population reach their educational goals. This study used Schlossberg’s transition theory to examine the adaptation experiences of 14 Asian international students at a U.S. community college from the factors of situation, self, support, and strategies via one-on-one, semistructured interviews. Four themes emerged from this study: (a) differences in culture, educational systems, values, norms, and expectations, (b) navigating academic expectations, (c) navigating life outside of the classroom, and (d) finding support through real connections. The recommendations based on this study’s findings provide insights for future policies and practices to support Asian international students succeed in U.S. higher education.

description: Chirality in organic molecules has attracted considerable attention in the fields of chemistry, biology, and spintronics. This paper reports on perpendicular magnetization hysteresis loops of a multilayer consisting of ultrathin Fe (001), chiral phthalocyanine molecule ((P)- or (M)-PbPc-DTBPh), and MgO (001). We find a chirality-dependent shift of the hysteresis loop. Unlike the previously reported bias current induced phenomena, the result shows a chirality-induced effective magnetic field in the phthalocyanine molecule in the absence of a bias current in the system. This study opens up a new direction in the emerging field of chiral molecular spintronics.

description: The scintillation decay time constant of a ZnWO$_4$ crystal irradiated with $α$-particles from $^{241}$Am was precisely investigated, and was found to depend on the incident direction of the $α$-particles on the crystal. The longest decay time constant ($24.3\pm0.6~μ$s) was obtained on the surface perpendicular to the b-axis of the crystal (Surface B). On Surfaces A and C, the decay constants were $20.0$ and $21.3\pm0.2~μ$s, respectively. The scintillation yield of the ZnWO$_4$ was also anisotropic and depended on the incident direction of the heavy particles. The maximum yield was achieved on surface B, suggesting a correlation between the light yield and scintillation decay time constant of ZnWO$_4$ crystals.

description: A combination of spatial interference patterns and spectral interferometry are used to find the global phase for non-collinear two-dimensional Fourier-transform (2DFT) spectra. Results are compared with those using the spectrally resolved transient absorption (STRA) method to find the global phase when excitation is with co-linear polarization. Additionally cross-linear polarized 2DFT spectra are correctly phased using the all-optical technique, where the SRTA is not applicable.

description: In some scenarios ("anti-coordination games"), individuals are better off choosing different actions than their neighbors while in other scenarios ("coordination games"), it is beneficial for individuals to choose the same strategy as their neighbors. Despite having different incentives and resulting population dynamics, it is largely unknown which collective outcome, anti-coordination or coordination, is easier to achieve. To address this issue, we focus on the distributed graph coloring problem on bipartite graphs. We show that with only two strategies, anti-coordination games (2-colorings) and coordination games (uniform colorings) are dual problems that are equally difficult to solve. To prove this, we construct an isomorphism between the Markov chains arising from the corresponding anti-coordination and coordination games under certain specific individual stochastic decision-making rules. Our results provide novel insights into solving collective action problems on networks.

description: Recent fits of electroweak precision data to the Standard Model (SM) with a 4th sequential family (SM4) point to a possible "three-prong composite solution": (1) the Higgs mass is at the TeV-scale, (2) the masses of the 4th family quarks t',b' are of O(500) GeV and (3) the mixing angle between the 4th and 3rd generation quarks is of the order of the Cabibbo angle, θ_{34} ~ O(0.1). Such a manifestation of the SM4 is of particular interest as it may suggest that the Higgs is a composite state, predominantly of the 4th generation heavy quarks. Motivated by the above, we show that the three-prong composite solution to the SM4 can have interesting new implications for Higgs phenomenology. For example, the Higgs can decay to a single heavy 4th generation quark via the 3-body decays (through an off-shell t' or b') H -> t'(bar) t'* -> t'(bar) b W+ and H -> b'(bar) b'* -> b'(bar) t W-. These flavor diagonal decays can be dramatically enhanced at the LHC (by several orders of magnitudes) due to the large width effects of the resonating heavy Higgs in the processes gg -> H -> t'(bar) t'* -> t'(bar) b W+ and gg -> H -> b'(bar) b'* -> b'(bar) t W-, thus yielding a viable signal above the corresponding continuum QCD production rates. In addition, the Higgs can decay to a single t' and b' in the loop-generated flavor changing (FC) channels H -> b' b(bar), t' t(bar). These FC decays are essentially "GIM-free" and can, therefore, have branching ratios as large as 10^{-4} - 10^{-3}.

description: The so-called interlayer-sliding ferroelectricity was recently proposed as an unconventional route to pursuit electric polarity in van der Waals multi-layers, which was already experimentally confirmed in WTe$_2$ bilayer even though it is metallic. Very recently, another van der Waals system, i.e., the ZrI$_2$ bilayer, was predicted to exhibit the interlayer-sliding ferroelectricity with both in-plane and out-of-plane polarizations [Phys. Rev. B \textbf{103}, 165420 (2021)]. Here the ZrI$_2$ bulk is studied, which owns two competitive phases ($α$ \textit{vs} $β$), both of which are derived from the common parent $s$-phase. The $β$-ZrI$_2$ owns a considerable out-of-plane polarization ($0.39$ $μ$C/cm$^2$), while its in-plane component is fully compensated. Their proximate energies provide the opportunity to tune the ground state phase by moderate hydrostatic pressure and uniaxial strain. Furthermore, the negative longitudinal piezoelectricity in $β$-ZrI$_2$ is dominantly contributed by the enhanced dipole of ZrI$_2$ layers as a unique characteristic of interlayer-sliding ferroelectricity, which is different from many other layered ferroelectrics with negative longitudinal piezoelectricity like CuInP$_2$S$_6$.

description: Excerpt from the report: In his efforts to make his farm pay, the farmer must decide what to produce and how to produce it and what to sell and how to sell it. His success depends on his making the right decisions on these questions. These questions come up nearly every day in the year and decisions must be based on a knowledge of principles and facts and not on some simple rule of thumb. Farm economics deal with the principles one needs to understand and the information one needs to have in order to make correct decisions. Farmers who understand these principles and know how to apply them are the ones who make the most out of farming.
D1.1 Use-case requirements
Creators: name: EXTRACT
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: The purpose of this deliverable is to investigate and define the requirements for the EXTRACT project, which will serve as the foundation for the development of the EXTRACT platform/system. The first step in defining the requirements was to identify the stakeholders and system actors involved in EXTRACT, along with their respective roles within the project.

Additionally, the various application environments in which the EXTRACT solution is expected to operate were identified. To define the user requirements, a comprehensive strategy was implemented, including the use of questionnaires filled out by stakeholders and regular meetings between end-users and the consortium. These efforts aimed to gain a deeper understanding of the users' needs and expectations, ultimately shaping the EXTRACT solutions accordingly.

Building upon the stakeholder requirements, a set of system requirements was derived and presented in this deliverable. However, it is important to note that these requirements are not final and will be updated as the system architecture is further developed and finalized.

description: With a mass of $\sim$1000 $M_\odot$ and a surface density of $\sim$0.5 g cm$^{-2}$, G023.477+0.114 also known as IRDC 18310-4 is an infrared dark cloud (IRDC) that has the potential to form high-mass stars and has been recognized as a promising prestellar clump candidate. To characterize the early stages of high-mass star formation, we have observed G023.477+0.114 as part of the ALMA Survey of 70 $μ$m Dark High-mass Clumps in Early Stages (ASHES). We have conducted $\sim$1."2 resolution observations with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) at 1.3 mm in dust continuum and molecular line emission. We identified 11 cores, whose masses range from 1.1 $M_\odot$ to 19.0 $M_\odot$. Ignoring magnetic fields, the virial parameters of the cores are below unity, implying that the cores are gravitationally bound. However, when magnetic fields are included, the prestellar cores are close to virial equilibrium, while the protostellar cores remain sub-virialized. Star formation activity has already started in this clump. Four collimated outflows are detected in CO and SiO. H$_2$CO and CH$_3$OH emission coincide with the high-velocity components seen in the CO and SiO emission. The outflows are randomly oriented for the natal filament and the magnetic field. The position-velocity diagrams suggest that episodic mass ejection has already begun even in this very early phase of protostellar formation. The masses of the identified cores are comparable to the expected maximum stellar mass that this IRDC could form (8-19 $M_\odot$). We explore two possibilities on how IRDC G023.477+0.114 could eventually form high-mass stars in the context of theoretical scenarios.
