description: This case study outlines our experience of discovering several unanticipated benefits of Open Educational Practices (OEP) to solve learning & teaching problems, attract grant funding, and cultivate academic career recognition. Our collaboration involved a cross-disciplinary team:1 x biochemistry teaching academic1 x open education specialist librarian (La Trobe eBureau)1 x open education project officer (La Trobe eBureau).Our project aimed to solve persistent difficulties that undergraduate students face for learning key concepts in biomedicine, biochemistry and related life sciences disciplines. Traditional textbooks have focused on comprehensiveness of content rather than tackling the root causes of learning and teaching problems. By contrast, the main idea driving our OE philosophy was to sharply focus on cultivating students’ metacognitive thinking for confronting known learning barriers, including quantitative literacy and key threshold concepts.Our journey began as a modest open education resource (OER) development project focused specifically on subjects taught at La Trobe University (LTU). Through experimentation, our reflective practices led us to encounters with a broader range of OEP benefits than we anticipated. We used these to transition away from a traditional didactic STEM education towards OER-enabled pedagogy, which included:cultivating students’ emerging identities as practitionersdesigning authentic assessmentenhancing teacher presencemaking difficult concepts accessibleempowering student voice and representation.We also demonstrate how academics and professional staff can collaborate as an integrated ‘Third Space’ team to not only generate impactful OERs but create new shared ways of working in higher education that go beyond traditional university binary roles.This is a peer-reviewed book chapter published in the edited volume: Open Education Down UndOER: Australasian Case Studies

description: On the basis of self-consistent Born approximation for Dirac fermions under charged impurity scatterings in graphene, the theory for calculating the thermo-electric power is developed by using the heat current-current correlation function. The advantage of the present approach is its ability to effectively treat the low doping case where the coherence process involving carriers in both upper and lower bands becomes important. We show that the low temperature behavior of the thermo-electric power as function of the carrier concentration and the temperature observed by the experiments can be successfully explained by our calculation.

description: A regulator faces a stream of agents each engaged in crime with stochastic returns. The regulator designs an amnesty program, committing to a time path of penalty reductions for criminals who self-report before they are detected. In an optimal time path, the intertemporal variation in the returns from crime can generate intertemporal variation in the generosity of amnesty. I construct an optimal time path and show that it exhibits amnesty cycles. Amnesty becomes increasingly generous over time until it hits a bound, at which point the cycle resets. Agents engaged in high return crime self-report at the end of each cycle, while agents engaged in low return crime self-report always. I discuss applications to desertion in war, tax evasion, and illegal gun ownership.

description: We study dynamic nonmonetary markets where objects are allocated to unit-demand agents with private types. An agent’s value for an object is supermodular in her type and the quality of the object, and her payoff is quasilinear in her waiting cost. We identify the welfare-maximizing mechanism in the class of direct-revelation mechanisms that elicit agents’ types and assign them to objects over time. When the social planner can design the information disclosed to the agents about the objects, this mechanism can be implemented by a first-come first-served wait-list with deferrals. The optimal disclosure policy pools adjacent object types. Moreover, the hazard rate of the distribution of the agents' types determines the structure of the optimal disclosure policy, when the agents' utility function is separable.  A single-peaked (single-dipped)  hazard rate leads to the optimality of a lower censorship (upper censorship) policy.
Stationary phase-kink states and dynamical phase transitions controlled by surface impedance in THz wave emission from intrinsic Josephson junctions

Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: Superconductivity (cond-mat.supr-con)

description: As possible states to characterize THz wave emission from intrinsic Josephson junctions without external fields, the McCumber-like state and $π$-phase-kink state have been proposed. In the present article it is numerically shown that both states are stationary according to the bias current $J$ and surface impedance $Z$. The McCumber-like state is stable for low $J$ and small $Z$. For higher $J$, the $π$-phase-kink state accompanied with symmetry breaking along the c axis is stable even for Z=1, though strong emission in the vicinity of cavity resonance points only takes place for larger $Z$. Different emission behaviors for Z=1 and 10 are precisely compared. The dynamical phase diagram for $1 \le Z \le 10$ and the optimal value of $Z$ for the strongest emission are also evaluated.

description: Computed tomography (CT) scans are a major source of medical radiation exposure worldwide. In countries like China, the frequency of CT scans has grown rapidly, particularly in routine physical examinations where chest CT scans are increasingly common. Accurate estimation of organ doses is crucial for assessing radiation risk and optimizing imaging protocols. However, traditional methods face challenges due to the labor-intensive process of manual organ segmentation and the computational demands of Monte Carlo (MC) dose calculations. In this study, we present a novel method that combines automatic image segmentation with GPU-accelerated MC simulations to compute patient-specific organ doses for a large cohort of 10,281 individuals undergoing CT examinations for physical examinations at a Chinese hospital. This is the first big-data study of its kind involving such a large population for CT dosimetry. The results show considerable inter-individual variability in CTDIvol-normalized organ doses, even among subjects with similar BMI or WED. Patient-specific organ doses vary widely, ranging from 33% to 164% normalized by the doses from ICRP Adult Reference Phantoms. Statistical analyses indicate that the "Reference Man" based average phantoms can lead to significant dosimetric uncertainties, with relative errors exceeding 50% in some cases. These findings underscore the fact that previous assessments of radiation risk may be inaccurate. It took our computational tool, on average, 135 seconds per subject, using a single NVIDIA RTX 3080 GPU card. The big-data analysis provides interesting data for improving CT dosimetry and risk assessment by avoiding uncertainties that were neglected in the past.

description: This paper documents that a steeper size-wage relationship, reflecting monopsony power, leads to aggregate productivity losses. We use this insight to understand the persistent labor productivity differences between West and East Germany. We employ high-quality administrative data to show that productivity differences between East and West Germany are related to a compressed plant-size distribution in East Germany. What is more, we show that the plant-size distribution is more compressed in those sectors where the size-wage relationship is steeper. Using a model of plant entry and customer accumulation, we show that differences in the size-wage relationships explain 10 percentage points lower labor productivity in the East German private sector, that is, approximately one third of its total labor productivity difference.

description: The existence of a classical limit describing interacting particles in a second-quantized theory of identical particles with bosonic symmetry is proved. This limit exists in addition to a previously established classical limit with a classical field behavior, showing that the limit $\hbar \to 0$ of the theory is not unique. An analogous result is valid for a free massive scalar field: two distinct classical limits are proved to exist, describing a system of particles or a classical field. The introduction of local operators in order to represent kinematical properties of interest is shown to break the permutation symmetry under some localizability conditions, allowing the study of individual particle properties.

description: Forecasts play a central role in decision making under uncertainty. After a brief review of the general issues, this paper considers ways of using high-dimensional data in forecasting. We consider selecting variables from a known active set, known knowns, using Lasso and OCMT, and approximating unobserved latent factors, known unknowns, by various means. This combines both sparse and dense approaches. We demonstrate the various issues involved in variable selection in a high-dimensional setting with an application to forecasting UK inflation at different horizons over the period 2020q1-2023q1. This application shows both the power of parsimonious models and the importance of allowing for global variables.

description: Excerpts from the report: This area study, the sixth and last of a series, deals with credit policies, practices, and trends in local farm supply cooperatives in the Atlantic region. Fourteen cooperatives in New York, New Jersey, Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, and Georgia provided information on their credit operations during the 5-year period, 1953-54 through 1957-58. On the basis of available information, their operations were typical of general supply operations of the area and above average in credit control performance. Farmer Cooperative Service conducted these area studies to determine: (1) The nature of and trends in use of credit by local cooperatives handling diversified lines of supplies and equipment, and (2) practical policies and procedures for successfully controlling credit operations.
Wage and Employment Discrimination by Gender in Labor Market Equilibrium

Subjects: gender wage gap

non-wage amenities

description: This paper develops an equilibrium search model to study the mechanisms underlying the lifecycle gender wage gap: human capital accumulation, preference for job amenities, and employers’ statistical discrimination in wage offers and hiring. In the model, men and women differ in turnover behaviors, parental leave lengths, and preference for amenities before and after having children. Capacity-constrained firms anticipate these gender differences when setting wages and making match decisions. Estimating the model on administrative employer-employee data combined with occupational level survey data on amenities from Finland, I find that a large proportion (44%) of the gender wage gap in early career is attributed to employers’ statistical discrimination based on fertility concerns, whereas gender differences in labor force attachment explain the majority of the gap (70%) in late career. Both hiring discrimination and preference for amenities draw women to low-productivity jobs in early career, and slow down their career progression in the long run. Counterfactual simulations show that shifting two parental leave months from women to men shrinks the wage gap by 13%. A gender quota at top jobs improves women’s representation in high-productivity positions, but firms undo this policy by exerting more wage discrimination. An equal pay policy counterfactual shows that requiring firms to pay men and women the same wage closes the wage gap by 15% on average, but has unintended consequences as employers adjust on the hiring margin.

description: We present total and differential cross sections for W b anti-b and Z b anti-b production at the CERN Large Hadron Collider including Next-to-Leading Order (NLO) QCD corrections and full bottom-quark mass effects. We discuss the scale uncertainty of the total cross sections due to the residual renormalization- and factorization-scale dependence of the truncated perturbative series. We also discuss b-quark mass effects in kinematic distributions by comparing with a calculation that considers massless bottom quarks, as implemented in the Monte Carlo program MCFM. The effects of a non-zero bottom-quark mass (m_b) cannot be neglected in phase-space regions where the relevant kinematic observable, such as the transverse momentum of the bottom quarks or the invariant mass of the bottom-quark pair, are of the order of m_b. Finally, we present the result of a detailed comparison of NLO QCD predictions for W+b-jet production with one or two jets with Tevatron data.

title: The integration of vision and touch for locating objects
Creators: name: Adams, Mark Alexander
Publisher: name: University of Reading
Year: 2019

description: The ability of the sensory system to create a stable representation of the world from an ever-changing stream of multi-modal information is still not well understood. The aim of this thesis was to investigate the underlying rules the sensory system uses to achieve this in the context of locating objects using vision and touch (haptics). We tested the wellestablished “optimal” combination model (Maximum Likelihood Estimation, MLE) against four other plausible combination strategies for locating objects in threedimensional space. We used a novel methodology that combined immersive Virtual Reality with spatially coaligned haptic robotics and real-world objects. Participants were asked to judge the depth of a target sphere relative to a plane defined by three reference spheres in a two-alternative forced choice discrimination task. A robotic arm was used to vary the depth of the target relative to a plane defined by the reference spheres. Spatially coincident virtual renderings of the spheres were presented on the Head Mounted Display (HMD). Haptic feedback was provided when participants reached out and touched real world objects that were aligned with the virtual objects. The variability of the single modality estimates (vision alone, haptics alone) were used to calculate predictions for performance in the combined-cue condition using five cue combination models. We find that none of the models predict the data well nor is any one model substantially better than the others. Thresholds for the combined-cue condition generally fell between the values of the single-cue thresholds rather than following the minimum variance or MLE prediction. Similarly, biases in the combined-cue case did not fall in the range between those for the individual cues as would be predicted by most cue combination models. The failure of the MLE model in this task has important implications for cue combination theory more widely.

Money Creation in Decentralized Finance: A Dynamic Model of Stablecoins and Crypto Shadow Banking
Creators: name: Li , Ye
name: Mayer, Simon
Publisher: name: Stanford Digital Repository
Year: 2022
Subjects: economics

description: We develop a dynamic model of stablecoins and crypto shadow banking, where the stablecoin issuer transforms risky assets, including cryptocurrencies, into digital tokens of stable values. Both the stablecoin issuer’s reserve assets and users’ collateral back the stablecoin. However, even under over-collateralization, a pledge of one-to-one convertibility to a reference currency can be fragile. The distribution of states is bimodal: A fixed exchange rate may persist, but once the stablecoin breaks the buck, the recovery is slow. When negative shocks drain the issuer’s reserves, debasement allows the issuer to share risk with users, but it triggers a vicious cycle of depressed stablecoin demand, lower transaction volume and transaction fees, slow rebuild of reserves, and a persistent need for debasement. Stablecoin management requires the optimal combination of strategies commonly observed in practice, such as open market operations, dynamic requirement of users’ collateral, transaction fees or subsidies, re-pegging, and issuances of “secondary units” that function as the stablecoin issuer’s equity. Our model lends itself to an evaluation of regulatory proposals (e.g., capital requirement) and sheds light on the complex incentives behind the stablecoin initiatives led by the network companies (e.g., Facebook).
Multi-Tev Gamma-Ray Observation from the Crab Nebula Using the Tibet-III Air Shower Array Finely Tuned by the Cosmic-Ray Moon's Shadow

description: The Tibet-III air shower array, consisting of 533 scintillation detectors, has been operating successfully at Yangbajing in Tibet, China since 1999. Using the dataset collected by this array from 1999 November through 2005 November, we obtained the energy spectrum of $γ$-rays from the Crab Nebula, expressed by a power law as $(dJ/dE) = (2.09\pm0.32)\times10^{-12} (E/{\rm 3 TeV})^{-2.96\pm0.14} {\rm cm}^{-2} {\rm s}^{-1} {\rm TeV}^{-1}$ in the energy range of 1.7 to 40 TeV. This result is consistent with other independent $γ$-ray observations by imaging air Cherenkov telescopes. In this paper, we carefully checked and tuned the performance of the Tibet-III array using data on the moon's shadow in comparison with a detailed Monte Carlo simulation. The shadow is shifted to the west of the moon's apparent position as an effect of the geomagnetic field, although the extent of this displacement depends on the primary energy positively charged cosmic rays. This finding enables us to estimate the systematic error in determining the primary energy from its shower size. This error is estimated to be less than $\pm$12% in our experiment. This energy scale estimation is the first attempt among cosmic-ray experiments at ground level. The systematic pointing error is also estimated to be smaller than $0\fdg011$. The deficit rate and position of the moon's shadow are shown to be very stable within a statistical error of $\pm$6% year by year. This guarantees the long-term stability of point-like source observation with the Tibet-III array. These systematic errors are adequately taken into account in our study of the Crab Nebula.

Yenan principles in Chinese education
Creators: name: Muszynski, Alice Catherine
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The educational system in China today has its roots in the Yenan period (1937-1945). This thesis surveys that period with the purpose of discovering how the principles underlying education came to be formed. It then goes on to describe how those principles were implemented in the 1940's. The chief concept around which the educational system came to be based was the 'mass line’. During the 1950's and early 1960's, education as envisaged in the Yenan years had to compete with another system - one modelled upon that of the Soviet Union. The thesis explores this struggle between what was essentially 'two lines' in education. The Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution, which erupted full-scale in 1966, was, as far as the educational sphere was concerned, a reaffirmation of the principles developed in the Yenan era. The thesis concludes with this movement, describing the more important of the educational policies and how they were to be implemented. Although specific policies and their implementation might differ from those of the Yenan years, the principles are still the same, especially that of the 'mass line'. It is suggested that the model of education developed in China since the Yenan era is one that is relevant for other countries of the Third World, although implementation may be impossible without social revolution. This thesis is based on research in the library, and was limited to English-language translations and secondary sources.

Order Conditions for Nonlinearly Partitioned Runge-Kutta Methods

description: Recently a new class of nonlinearly partitioned Runge--Kutta (NPRK) methods was proposed for nonlinearly partitioned systems of autonomous ordinary differential equations, $y' = F(y,y)$. The target class of problems are ones in which different scales, stiffnesses, or physics are coupled in a nonlinear way, wherein the desired partition cannot be written in a classical additive or component-wise fashion. Here we use rooted-tree analysis to derive full order conditions for NPRK$_M$ methods, where $M$ denotes the number of nonlinear partitions. Due to the nonlinear coupling and thereby mixed product differentials, it turns out the standard node-colored rooted-tree analysis used in analyzing ODE integrators does not naturally apply. Instead we develop a new edge-colored rooted-tree framework to address the nonlinear coupling. The resulting order conditions are enumerated, provided directly for up to 4th order with $M=2$ and 3rd-order with $M=3$, and related to existing order conditions of additive and partitioned RK methods. We conclude with an example which shows how the nonlinear order conditions can be used to obtain an embedded estimate of the state-dependent nonlinear coupling strength in a dynamical system.

description: The polarization properties of RX J1856.5-3754 are investigated, based on the plasma emission model presented in previous works. It is shown that if the emission of this source is generated by the synchrotron mechanism, the X-ray and the optical emission are linearly polarized and the corresponding degrees of linear polarization are calculated. The measurement of the polarization patterns of this source appears to be most reliable way, to make clear its real emission nature.

The model leverages matched employer-employee data to unpack spatial frictions into different types while isolating them from labor market frictions that operate also within region. The estimated model shows sizable spatial frictions between East and West Germany, especially due to the limited ability of workers to obtain job offers from more distant regions. Despite the large real wage gap between East and West of Germany, removing the spatial frictions leads, in equilibrium, to only a small increase in aggregate productivity and it mostly affects the within-region allocation of labor to firms rather than the between-region allocation. However, spatial frictions have large distributional consequences, as their removal drastically reduces the gap in lifetime earnings between East and West Germans.

description: In this paper we investigate the one-loop radiative corrections to the neutrino indices of refraction from supersymmetric models. We consider the Next-to Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (NMSSM) which happens to be a better supersymmetric candidate than the MSSM for both theoretical and experimental reasons. We scan the relevant SUSY parameters and identify regions in the parameter space which yield interesting values for V_{mu tau}. If R-parity is broken there are significant differences between MSSM and NMSSM contributions contrary to the R-parity conserved case. Finally, for a non-zero CP-violating phase, we show analytically that the presence of V_{mu tau} will explicitly imply CP-violation effects on the supernova electron (anti-) neutrino fluxes.

Screening for Breakthroughs

Subjects: economics

description: We identify a new dynamic agency problem: that of incentivising the prompt disclosure of productive information. To study it, we introduce a general model in which a technological breakthrough occurs at an uncertain time and is privately observed by an agent, and a principal must incentivise disclosure via her control of the agent’s utility. We uncover a deadline structure of optimal mechanisms: they have a simple deadline form in an important special case, and a graduated deadline structure in general. We apply our results to the design of unemployment insurance schemes.
title: Pathogenomics of Phytophthora fragariae, the causal agent of strawberry red core disease

description: Strawberries are a valuable fruit crop for the UK and worldwide. The UK berry market was worth £1.2 billion in 2016, with strawberries as 50% of this market. One of the major threats to the industry is the water-borne disease strawberry red core, caused by the oomycete pathogen Phytophthora fragariae. One way to increase the resilience of the industry to this pathogen is breeding for genetic resistance in plants. To do this effectively, a strong understanding of the pathogen, including identification of avirulence genes is required. To investigate this, ten isolates of P. fragariae and three isolates of the related raspberry pathogen Phytophthora rubi were sequenced with the Illumina MiSeq system. PacBio sequencing was used on an additional isolate of P. fragariae, BC-16, to produce an improved reference assembly of 91 Mb in 180 contigs. Following assembly of these genomes and gene prediction through RNA-Seq guided and ab initio methods, effector genes were identified. Further investigations utilising orthology analysis, variant calling and differential expression analysis allowed for the identification of candidate avirulence genes for races UK1, UK2 and UK3. A very strong candidate for the avirulence gene in the UK2 race was identified as an RxLR effector named g27513 in BC-16. Further investigations did not identify clear cis or trans DNA sequence polymorphisms causing the variation in expression across races. Three of the identified races (UK1, UK2 and UK3) clustered into a single population with low levels of nucleotide diversity and a mixture of clonal and sexual reproduction which may possibly be undergoing recovery from a recent genetic bottleneck. The candidate genes provide future targets for identifying avirulence genes to aid in effector guided breeding approaches to produce disease resistant strawberry plants. This work also provides resources for further investigations of this pathosystem and the Phytophthora genus as a whole.

Interest Rate Cuts vs. Stimulus Payments: An Equivalence Result
Creators: name: Wolf, Christian
Publisher: name: Stanford Digital Repository
Year: 2022
Subjects: economics

description: In a textbook New Keynesian model extended to allow for uninsurable household income risk, any path of inflation and output implementable via nominal interest rate policy is also implementable by adjusting uniform lumpsum transfer payments, and vice-versa. The two tools are thus perfect substitutes for a dual mandate policymaker. It follows that conventional fiscal policy using stimulus checks can fully substitute for monetary policy when interest rates are constrained by an effective lower bound. In a quantitative heterogeneous-agent (HANK) model, the mapping between the equivalent fiscal and monetary policies is well-characterized by a small number of measurable sufficient statistics. While macro-equivalent, however, the two tools operate very differently in the cross-section of households: compared to a given rate cut, stimulus checks that deliver the same aggregate stabilization imply strictly lower consumption inequality.
Safe Spaces: Shelters or Tribes?

description: By making our lives more transparent than ever, technology exposes our behavior to an audience that is less like-minded than that in our private sphere. In reaction, we change our behavior. Or we incur costs to join safe spaces: reduced use of public spaces and forgone diversity and opportunities when selecting our social graph. This paper provides a framework for thinking about the endogeneity of our private sphere in environments in which issues are divisive (politics, religion, sexuality, antagonistic social views…). It studies the emergence of safe spaces of like-minded individuals and their societal consequences.

Credit Allocation and Macroeconomic Fluctuations

Subjects: economics

description: We study the relationship between credit expansions, macroeconomic fluctuations, and financial crises using a novel database on the sectoral distribution of private credit for 116 countries starting in 1940. Theory predicts that the sectoral allocation of credit matters for distinguishing between “good” and “bad” credit booms. We test the prediction that lending to households and the non-tradable sector, relative to the tradable sector, contributes to macroeconomic boom-bust cycles by (i) fueling unsustainable demand booms, (ii) increasing financial fragility, and (iii) misallocating resources across sectors. We show that credit to non-tradable sectors, including construction and real estate, is associated with a boom-bust pattern in output, similar to household credit booms. Such lending booms also predict elevated financial crisis risk and productivity slowdowns. In contrast, tradable-sector credit expansions are followed by stable output and productivity growth without a higher risk of a financial crisis. Our findings highlight that what credit is used for is important for understanding macro-financial linkages.

description: We present the survey strategy and the data characteristics of the North Ecliptic Pole (NEP) Wide Survey of AKARI. The survey was carried out for about one year starting from May 2006 with 9 passbands from 2.5 to 24 micron and the areal coverage of about 5.8 sq. degrees centered on NEP. The survey depth reaches to 21.8 AB magnitude near infrared (NIR) bands, and ~ 18.6 AB maggnitude at the mid infrared (MIR) bands such as 15 and 18 micron. The total number of sources detected in this survey is about 104,000, with more sources in NIR than in the MIR. We have cross matched infrared sources with optically identified sources in CFHT imaging survey which covered about 2 sq. degrees within NEP-Wide survey region in order to characterize the nature of infrared sources. The majority of the mid infrared sources at 15 and 18 micron band are found to be star forming disk galaxies, with smaller fraction of early type galaxies and AGNs. We found that a large fraction (60~80 %) of bright sources in 9 and 11 micron stars while stellar fraction decreases toward fainter sources. We present the histograms of the sources at mid infrared bands at 9, 11, 15 and 18 micron. The number of sources per magnitude thus varies as m^0.6 for longer wavelength sources while shorter wavelength sources show steeper variation with m, where m is the AB magnitude.
