description: A large class of viable dark matter models contain a WIMP candidate that is a component of a new electroweak multiplet whose mass $M$ is large compared to the electroweak scale $m_W$. A generic amplitude-level cancellation in such models yields a severe suppression of the cross section for WIMP-nucleon scattering, making it important to assess the impact of formally subleading effects. The power correction of order $m_W/M$ to the heavy WIMP limit is computed for electroweak doublet (Higgsino-like) dark matter candidates, and a modern model of nuclear modifications to the free nucleon cross section is evaluated. Corrections to the pure Higgsino limit are determined by a single parameter through first order in the heavy WIMP expansion. Current and projected experimental bounds on this parameter are investigated. The direct detection signal in the pure Higgsino limit remains below neutrino backgrounds for WIMPs in the TeV mass range. Nuclear corrections are applied also to the heavy Wino case, completing the investigation of combined subleading effects from perturbative QCD, $1/M$ power corrections, and nuclear modifications.

description: SARS-CoV-2 infection among People Living With HIV (PLWH) is not well-described. To study COVID-19 symptoms and SARS-CoV-2 PCR-based swab testing among participants of the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study (MACS) and Women’s Interagency HIV Study (WIHS). A telephone survey was collected April-June 30, 2020. Symptom and testing prevalence were explored. Multivariable logistic regression was used to examine the factors associated with SARS-CoV-2 positivity. The survey was completed by 3411 participants, including 2078 (61%) PLWH and 1333 HIV-seronegative (SN) participants from across the US. Thirteen percent (n = 441) were tested for SARS-CoV-2 infection (13.4% of PLWH vs 12.2% of SN). Among those tested, positivity was higher in PLWH than SN (11.2% vs 6.1%, p = 0.08). Reasons for not being tested included testing not being available (30% of participants) and not knowing where to get tested (16% of participants). Most symptoms reported since January 2020 were similar in PLWH and SN, including headache (23% vs. 24%), myalgias (19% vs 18%), shortness of breath (14% vs 13%), chills (12% vs 10%), fever (6% vs 6%) and loss of taste or smell (6% vs 7%). Among PLWH who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 DNA, the most common symptoms were headache (71%), myalgia (68%), cough (68%) and chills (65%). In multivariable analysis among those tested, the odds of SARS-CoV-2 positivity were higher among PLWH than SN (aOR = 2.22 95%CI = 01.01–4.85, p = 0.046) and among those living with others versus living alone (aOR = 2.95 95%CI = 1.18–7.40). Prevalence and type of COVID-19 symptoms were similar in PLWH and SN. SARS-CoV-2 infection may be elevated among PLWH.
The Origin of the Boson Peak and the Thermal Conductivity Plateau in Low Temperature Glasses

description: We argue that the intrinsic glassy degrees of freedom in amorphous solids giving rise to the thermal conductivity plateau and the ``boson peak'' in the heat capacity at moderately low temperatures are directly connected to those motions giving rise to the two-level like excitations seen at still lower temperatures. These degrees of freedom can be thought of as strongly anharmonic transitions between the local minima of the glassy energy landscape that are accompanied by ripplon-like domain wall motions of the glassy mosaic structure predicted to occur at $T_g$ by the random first order transition theory. The energy spectrum of the vibrations of the mosaic depends on the glass transition temperature, the Debye frequency and the molecular length scale. The resulting spectrum reproduces the experimental low temperature Boson peak. The ``non-universality'' of the thermal conductivity plateau depends on $k_B T_g/\hbar ω_D$ and arises from calculable interactions with the phonons.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: This paper examines the impacts of exchange rate risk on Taiwanese traders' decisions to hedge corn imports on US futures markets. The results yield the conclusion that, in the absence of a market that provides proper tools to hedge against exchange rate risk, the Taiwanese economy is incurring an observable social loss. Thus, further liberalisation is essential. Taiwan's experiences can serve as an example for developing countries, as the world economy is becoming increasingly integrated. © 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
On the Early Evolution of Forming Jovian Planets II: Analysis of Accretion and Gravitational Torques
Creators: name: Nelson, Andrew F.
name: Benz, Willy
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: (abridged) We find that a disk can supply a forming planet with mass at an essentially infinite rate ($\sim1$\mj/25 yr) so that a gap could form very quickly. We show that mass accretion rates faster than $\sim10^{-4}$\mj/yr are not physically reasonable in the limit of either a thin, circumplanetary disk or of a spherical envelope. Planet growth and ultimately survival are therefore limited to the planet's ability to accept additional matter, not by the disk in which it resides. We find that common analytic torque approximations predict values that are a factor $\sim10$ larger than those obtained from the simulations. Accounting for the disk's vertical structure (crudely modeled through a gravitational softening parameter), small shifts in resonance positions due to pressure gradients, to disk self gravity and to inclusion of non-WKB terms in the analysis (Artymowicz 1993) reduce the difference to a factor $\sim3-6$. Torques from the corotation resonances that are positive in sign contribute 20-30% or more of the net torque on the planet. The assumption of linearity underlying theoretical analyses is recovered in the simulations with planets with masses below 0.5\mj, but the assumption that interactions occur only at the resonances is more difficult to support. The detailed shape of the disk's response varies from pattern to pattern, making its true position less clear. We speculate that the finite width allows for overlap and mixing between resonances and may be responsible for the remainder of the differences between torques from theory and simulation, but whether accounting for such overlap in a theory will improve the agreement with the simulations is not clear.

description: This paper investigates the impact of the institution of brokerage on the optimal search behaviour and the welfare gains and losses of traders in the Ethiopian grain market. Without brokers, the privately optimal search diverges from the socially optimal search due to the positive spill-over of individual search behaviour. Numerical analysis using the actual distribution of search costs and search efficiency obtained from primary data collected in Ethiopia reveals that this externality is partially internalised by the presence of brokers and that total welfare increases significantly due to a more efficient allocation of search effort.© 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.

description: We consider stripe formation in quantum Hall systems at integer filling factors. We use Hartree-Fock calculations to obtain the phase diagram of bilayer quantum Hall systems at $ν=4n+1$ in a tilted magnetic field. We derive and analyze an effective low energy theory for the stripe phases which may be present in such systems. We discuss the possibility of stripe formation in wide well systems in a tilted magnetic field and suggest that the resistance anisotropy, observed recently by W. Pan et.al. [phys. Rev. B 64 (2001) 121305], may be due to the existence of a skyrmion stripe phase.

description: Die ländliche Region Laufental‐Thierstein liegt südlich der Nordwestschweizer Grossstadt Basel in den Kantonen Basel‐Landschaft und Solothurn. Begrenzt wird sie im Westen und Süden durch die französische Sprachgrenze und im Südosten durch eine Gebirgskette. Die Bevölkerung der Region orientiert sich aufgrund der geografischen und sprachlichen Begebenheiten seit jeher nach Basel hin. Der in der Region gesprochene Dialekt unterscheidet sich lautlich in zahlreichen Punkten vom Stadtdialekt (vgl. SDS). Besonders salient ist die Velarisierung von mhd. nd, die dazu geführt hat, dass die Bevölkerung des Laufental‐Thiersteins von StadtbaslerInnen als «die vo hinge füüre» bezeichnet wird. In der restlichen Schweiz werden die Laufental‐ThiersteinerInnen aufgrund ihres Dialekts hingegen der Stadt Basel zugeordnet. Wie nimmt nun die Bevölkerung der Region selbst ihre sprachliche Umgebung wahr? Wie benennt und bewertet sie das eigene und angrenzende Dialektgebiet(e)? Aufgrund welcher Merkmale nimmt sie entsprechende Dialekteinteilungen vor? Diesen Fragen wird mithilfe von Mental Maps (vgl. Preston 2010) und Laienkommentaren von 60 Personen dreier Generationen nachgegangen. Erste Auswertungen zeigen, dass sich die Laufental-ThiersteinerInnen von der Stadt dialektal klar abgrenzen. Entgegen der in der Schweiz üblichen Praxis, Dialekte nach Kantonen einzuteilen und die Kantonsgrenzen als Trenngrösse zu verwenden (vgl. Christen 2010, 2015), spielen diese in der überkantonalen Region Laufental‐Thierstein nur eine untergeordnete Rolle. Für die Beschreibung der sprachlichen Unterschiede werden nebst lautlichen und lexikalischen Merkmalen v.a. affektive Beschreibungen verwendet. So wird der Basler Dialekt beispielsweise als «eingebildet», «hochnäsig», «zu nobel» und «arrogant» beschrieben – Zuschreibungen, die erahnen lassen, dass hier nicht nur die Sprache, sondern auch deren SprecherInnen bewertet werden (vgl. Siebenhaar 2000: 27‐28). Gleichzeitig wird aber, wie eine Bilder‐Abfrage zeigt, die für die BewohnerInnen metasprachlich sehr präsente Velarisierung von einigen InformantInnen objektsprachlich nicht mehr realisiert.

Das Poster zeigt anhand von Mental Maps und metasprachlichen Kommentaren auf, wie die Laufental‐Thiersteiner Laien ihre sprachliche Umgebung einteilen und die einzelnen Dialekte beschreiben und bewerten. Es entstand im Rahmen des Doc.CH-Projekts "Auswirkungen regionaler Identitätsbildung auf die Sprache im Spannungsfeld einer Grossstadt" (SNF Grant 172005) und stellt einen Zwischenstand der Ergebnisse im Jahr 2019 dar. Das Projekt wurde 2021 abgeschlossen. Die Ergebnisse des Dissertationsprojekts werden in einer Monografie OA publiziert (voraussichtliches Erscheinungsjahr: 2025).

description: Excellichlamys Iredale, 1939
 Excellichlamys Iredale, 1939: 366. Type species (by original designation): Pecten spectabilis Reeve, 1853; Recent, unknown locality [(sub)tropical Indo-West Pacific].
 Diagnosis. Small to medium-sized Decatopectinini with 9–12 radial plicae, elongate to subcircular, most species with large unequal auricles; with commarginal macro- and microsculpture, prominent noduliferous radial sculpture on auricles, short internal rib carinae, weak resilial hinge teeth (dorsal and intermediate teeth absent), byssal notch shallow, ctenolium obsolete to prominent.
 Distribution. Miocene–Recent (Hayami, 1989: 15). Tropical Indo-West Pacific, living in the littoral to sublittoral zones amongst coral or coral rubble on soft sediment.
 Discussion. Hertlein (1969: N366) treated Excellichlamys as a subgenus of Semipallium Lamy, 1928, placed in the Decatopecten group. However, Excellichlamys differs strongly in morphology from Semipallium, which has shagreen microsculpture and is placed in Pedini. Waller (1986: 40) raised Excellichlamys to a genus and placed it in Decatopectinini.

description: Incentives for REDD − i.e., reductions in emissions from deforestation and degradation − motivate application of static economic modeling of land use to assess heterogeneity over space in the business-as-usual baselines for land use required for forest policy evaluations. That some forested locations face higher threats is now recognized as an important factor in the evaluation and targeting of policy. Given this point − now often included in impact evaluation via matching − further theory is required to explain variations in policy impact. We show this need by analyzing impacts of Mexican protected areas (PAs) on land cover. Applying static land-use economics improves the baselines for our impact estimation and we find, on average, a 2.5% lower rate of 2000-05 natural land cover loss within the PAs. Stricter PAs appear closer to cities and have greater impact (4.4%) than less strict (2.3%), yet static baselines do not explain why. Nor do they explain why impact gradients by type differ across countries, or why PA spillovers vary across states − as we show for Mexico. We suggest an initial political economy model of impacts by type of PA and also provide examples of the economic and political dynamics required to understand PAs' spillovers.

description: Food systems in developing countries are transforming, involving a rapid expansion of supermarkets. This supermarket revolution may affect dietary patterns and nutrition, but empirical evidence is scarce. The few existing studies have analyzed implications for food consumers and producers separately. We discuss a more integrated framework that helps to gain a broader understanding. Reviewing recent evidence from Kenya, we show that buying food in supermarkets instead of traditional outlets contributes to overnutrition among adults, while reducing undernutrition among children. For farm households, supplying supermarkets causes improvements in dietary quality. The results underline that supermarkets influence nutrition in multiple ways and directions.

Strengthening Africa’s capacity for innovation in animal agriculture: the agriculture–mining conundrum of grass or brass, bread or stones

description: In spite of its abundant mineral resources and the activities of many mining companies extracting those resources from only a very small part of the total land area, much of Africa is still in penury. Animal agriculture is a major contributor to the economy of many African countries, especially in the arid and semi-arid areas where it occupies about 80% of the land. The sector employs some 50% of the total agricultural labour force, contributes about 10% of the gross domestic product (GDP) and accounts for 40% of agricultural GDP. An estimated 100 million people work in the pastoral economy alone. Yet the livestock sector receives less than 2% of the national budgetary allocation for development, in spite of facing changing conditions and needing innovative thinking. African governments need to find the will to insist that mining companies contribute to country revenues, so that development of mineral wealth can provide financial resources to support agricultural development and innovation. Through their sense of corporate social responsibility mining companies already contribute to improved infrastructure and local community well-being. African governments need to adopt an ‘Innovation Platform approach’, to understand how to use mineral-derived revenue to overcome technological and institutional constraints in dealing with the ever-changing needs, environments and advances in agriculture, including the livestock sector, to achieve economic benefits.
RVSDG: An Intermediate Representation for Optimizing Compilers

description: Intermediate Representations (IRs) are central to optimizing compilers as the way the program is represented may enhance or limit analyses and transformations. Suitable IRs focus on exposing the most relevant information and establish invariants that different compiler passes can rely on. While control-flow centric IRs appear to be a natural fit for imperative programming languages, analyses required by compilers have increasingly shifted to understand data dependencies and work at multiple abstraction layers at the same time. This is partially evidenced in recent developments such as the MLIR proposed by Google. However, rigorous use of data flow centric IRs in general purpose compilers has not been evaluated for feasibility and usability as previous works provide no practical implementations. We present the Regionalized Value State Dependence Graph (RVSDG) IR for optimizing compilers. The RVSDG is a data flow centric IR where nodes represent computations, edges represent computational dependencies, and regions capture the hierarchical structure of programs. It represents programs in demand-dependence form, implicitly supports structured control flow, and models entire programs within a single IR. We provide a complete specification of the RVSDG, construction and destruction methods, as well as exemplify its utility by presenting Dead Node and Common Node Elimination optimizations. We implemented a prototype compiler and evaluate it in terms of performance, code size, compilation time, and representational overhead. Our results indicate that the RVSDG can serve as a competitive IR in optimizing compilers while reducing complexity.

description: This work introduces TapirXLA, a replacement for TensorFlow's XLA compiler that embeds recursive fork-join parallelism into XLA's low-level representation of code. Machine-learning applications rely on efficient parallel processing to achieve performance, and they employ a variety of technologies to improve performance, including compiler technology. But compilers in machine-learning frameworks lack a deep understanding of parallelism, causing them to lose performance by missing optimizations on parallel computation. This work studies how Tapir, a compiler intermediate representation (IR) that embeds parallelism into a mainstream compiler IR, can be incorporated into a compiler for machine learning to remedy this problem. TapirXLA modifies the XLA compiler in TensorFlow to employ the Tapir/LLVM compiler to optimize low-level parallel computation. TapirXLA encodes the parallelism within high-level TensorFlow operations using Tapir's representation of fork-join parallelism. TapirXLA also exposes to the compiler implementations of linear-algebra library routines whose parallel operations are encoded using Tapir's representation. We compared the performance of TensorFlow using TapirXLA against TensorFlow using an unmodified XLA compiler. On four neural-network benchmarks, TapirXLA speeds up the parallel running time of the network by a geometric-mean multiplicative factor of 30% to 100%, across four CPU architectures.

description: Because of their enormous intrinsic brightness blue supergiants are ideal stellar objects to be studied spectroscopically as individuals in galaxies far beyond the Local Group. Quantitative spectroscopy by means of efficient multi-object spectrographs attached to 8m-class telescopes and modern NLTE model atmosphere techniques allow us to determine not only intrinsic stellar parameters such as effective temperature, surface gravity, chemical composition and absolute magnitude but also very accurately interstellar reddening and extinction. This is a significant advantage compared to classical distance indicators like Cepheids and RR Lyrae. We describe the spectroscopic diagnostics of blue supergiants and introduce two concepts to determine absolute magnitudes. The first one (Wind Momentum -- Luminosity Relationship) uses the correlation between observed stellar wind momentum and luminosity, whereas the second one (Flux-weighted Gravity -- Luminosity Relationship) relies only on the determination of effective temperature and surface gravity to yield an accurate estimate of absolute magnitude. We discuss the potential of these two methods.

description: One of the most significant scientific improvements in global health is vaccine development, reducing the risk of infectious diseases, preventing deaths, and strengthening health. Vaccine hesitancy is a delay in accepting or refusing immunization, notwithstanding the availability of vaccination services. The primary goal of this study is to explore the experiences, challenges, and coping mechanisms of vaccine-hesitant housewives. Employing the Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), the findings of this study were: (1) the most common concerns expressed by hesitant housewives are the vaccine's potential side effects, such as fever and seizures, as well as the effects for people suffering from diseases such as high blood, (2) it was found that almost all of the vaccine-hesitant housewives stated that the most challenging aspect was the restrictions, especially when they were out in public places and required a vaccination card, which they did not have, and (3) lastly, they could develop a coping mechanism even though they were vaccine-hesitant. Further, they discovered new hobbies, binge-watched movies, and it showcases that their faith has dramatically aided them, particularly when they are scared.

description: Rotating black hole solution surrounded by quintessential matter is recently discussed because it might be the promising solution to study the effect of dark energy in small scale of the universe. This quintessential solution is originally derived from the condition of additivity and linearity for the energy-momentum tensor. We carry out the thermodynamic properties of this solution using the Kerr/CFT correspondence for several specific quintessential equation of state parameters. A problem arises when we compute the central charge because the canonical conserved charge is needed to be calculated from the Lagrangian. However, the exact Lagrangian of the quintessence is not defined yet in the original derivation. Yet we solve this problem by the assumption that there is only a contribution from gravitational field to the central charge. Then we could find the entropy of this black hole after calculating the temperature and using Cardy entropy formula. Another problem comes out when the spin goes to zero to find the Reissner-Nordström-NUT-Quintessence solution. To solve it, we extend to the 5-dimensional solution. In the end, we obtain the entropy for this 5-dimensional solution. So the quintessential black hole solution is dual with the CFT.

 Gloripallium Iredale, 1939: 357. Type species (by original designation): Ostrea pallium Linnaeus, 1758; Recent, Indonesia.
 Diagnosis. Medium-sized Decatopectinini with 7–14 radial plicae; subcircular to circular; with prominent commarginal lamellae on plicae; secondary sculpture of radial riblets (lacking from some specimens); noduliferous radial macrosculpture on auricles, commarginal microsculpture on auricles and on disc in early growth stage of some specimens; internal rib carinae prominent; hinge with prominent dorsal teeth and weak resilial teeth; byssal notch deep, ctenolium well-developed.
 Distribution. Miocene–Recent (Hayami, 1989: 15). Tropical Indo-West Pacific, living in the littoral to sublittoral zones amongst coral on soft sediment.
 Discussion. Hertlein (1969: N357) treated Gloripallium as a subjective junior synonym of Cryptopecten Dall, Bartsch & Rehder, 1938, a subgenus of Chlamys Röding, 1798, placed in the Chlamys group. Waller (1986: 40) recognized Gloripallium as a valid genus in Decatopectinini.

description: Phytochemical investigation of the seeds of Coix lacryma-jobi var. lacryma-jobi resulted in the isolation of eight compounds, including two new structures, coixdines A-B (1-2) and six known compounds (3-8). The structures of these compounds were determined by 1 D and 2 D NMR spectra referring to the literatures, together with HR-MS analysis. Coixdine A and B are first examples of spermidine skeleton in genus Coix. In the present paper, all compounds were evaluated for the cytotoxicity against two cancer cell lines (CT-26 and BxPC-3) in vitro, and none of the compounds exhibited obvious cytotoxic activity. The present investigation suggests that these amides seem to be of great chemotaxonomic value for C. lacryma-jobi.

description: It is shown that dipolar and weak superexchange interactions between the spin systems of single-molecule magnets (SMM) play an important role in the relaxation of magnetization. These interactions can reduce or increase resonant tunneling. The one-body tunnel picture of SMMs is not always sufficient to explain the measured tunnel transitions. We propose to improve the picture by including also two-body tunnel transitions such as spin-spin cross-relaxation (SSCR). A Mn4 SMM is used as a model system to study the SSCR which plays also an important role for other SMMs like Mn12 or Fe8. At certain external fields, SSCRs can lead to quantum resonances which can show up in hysteresis loop measurements as well defined steps. A simple model allows us to explain quantitatively all observed transitions. Including three-body transitions or dealing with the many-body problem is beyond the slope of this paper.

description: Estimation of a deterministic quantity observed in non-Gaussian additive noise is explored via order statistics approach. More specifically, we study the estimation problem when measurement noises either have positive supports or follow a mixture of normal and uniform distribution. This is a problem of great interest specially in cellular positioning systems where the wireless signal is prone to multiple sources of noises which generally have a positive support. Multiple noise distributions are investigated and, if possible, minimum variance unbiased (MVU) estimators are derived. In case of uniform, exponential and Rayleigh noise distributions, unbiased estimators without any knowledge of the hyper parameters of the noise distributions are also given. For each noise distribution, the proposed order statistic-based estimator's performance, in terms of mean squared error, is compared to the best linear unbiased estimator (BLUE), as a function of sample size, in a simulation study.
