description: The tidal deformability of a self-gravitating object leaves an imprint on the gravitational-wave signal of an inspiral which is paramount to measure the internal structure of the binary components. We unveil here a surprisingly unnoticed effect: in the extreme-mass ratio limit the tidal Love number of the central object (i.e. the quadrupole moment induced by the tidal field of its companion) affects the gravitational waveform at the leading order in the mass ratio. This effect acts as a magnifying glass for the tidal deformability of supermassive objects but was so far neglected, probably because the tidal Love numbers of a black hole (the most natural candidate for a compact supermassive object) are identically zero. We argue that extreme-mass ratio inspirals detectable by the future LISA mission might place constraints on the tidal Love numbers of the central object which are roughly 8 orders of magnitude more stringent than current ones on neutron stars, potentially probing all models of black hole mimickers proposed so far.

description: Recent research on household `vulnerability' has led to an increased appreciation of the welfare costs of risk. Measuring the risk borne by a particular household has generally involved the use of panel data, and in particular the use of time series variation in household expenditures to estimate the risk borne by the household in any given period. This has led researchers to focus on static measures of vulnerability, since once used to identify the distribution of consumption expenditures in a single period the time series variation can no longer be used to describe the intertemporal profile of the distribution of consumption expenditures--simultaneous estimation of inequality, risk, and time series variation in household vulnerability requires the additional structure of a dynamic model. Unfortunately, our present understanding of the economic circumstances in which most households are situated seems too limited to permit general agreement on what the right dynamic model is. We show that simple restrictions on households' intertemporal smoothing can be used to simultaneously estimate household risk preferences in a manner which is robust to a variety of different assumptions about the economic environment. Further, these simple restrictions and estimated preferences can then be used to robustly characterize the welfare costs of different sorts of variation in consumption expenditures.

Free will and logic
Creators: name: Bradley, Raymond
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1960

description: Chapter One begins with a brief survey of the main participants in the Free Will dispute. It is argued, in general terms, that the dispute between them - whether or not Determinism is inconsistent with moral responsibility - can be settled only by a logical or conceptual enquiry. A contrary view - that we can settle the dispute by appeal to introspection - is examined and refuted. The question 'Are our wills contra-causally free?' is shown to have three presuppositions: One factual, and two logical. It is an improper question since it presupposes, mistakenly, the existence of a Will or Self; that the Will is the sort of thing of which 'freedom' can significantly be predicated; and that Determinism is the kind of thing that it makes logical sense to talk of being free from. In Chapter Three, I distinguish between the various members of the two families of theses that we call 'Determinism' and 'Libertarianism' and show that the failure to make these distinctions, or the neglect of them once they have been made, is the source of many confusions and fallacious reasonings. Following an analysis of some importantly different kinds of use of modal terms in the first part of Chapter Four, I go on to argue that the sense in which it can properly be said of a person who is morally responsible for a given action that he 'need not' have done it and 'could' have done otherwise, is different from any of the senses in which Determinists assert that everything is 'necessarily' what it is and 'could not' have been otherwise. I argue, in Chapter Five, that the credentials of Logical Determinism are logically impeccable, Logical Libertarianism mistakenly supposes that this form of Determinism entails Fatalism and so must be inconsistent with free will and moral responsibility. Next I examine some fashionable interpretations of the logical status of 'Every event has a cause. I claim that it is a genuine factual, but empirically unfalsifiable, proposition. The contrary view involves an epistemic-ontological confusion. The nature of this confusion is illustrated in the course of a detailed examination of the argument from physical indeterminacy. Finally, Causal Determinism-'my morrow is determined by what happens today' - is distinguished from fatalism - 'my morrow is determined no matter what I do today'. In the last chapter, it is shown that the Libertarian's analysis of the conditions of moral responsibility is erroneous. Determinism is consistent with ethics while the free Will Theory is not.

description: We compare the tau neutrino flux arising from the galaxy and the earth atmosphere for 10^3 < E/GeV < 10^11. The intrinsic and oscillated tau neutrino fluxes from both sources are calculated. The intrinsic galactic ν_τ flux (E > 10^3 GeV) is calculated by considering the interactions of high-energy cosmic-rays with the matter present in our galaxy, whereas the oscillated galactic ν_τ flux is coming from the oscillation of the galactic ν_μ flux. For the intrinsic atmospheric ν_τ flux, we extend the validity of a previous calculation from E < 10^6 GeV up to E < 10^11 GeV. The oscillated atmospheric ν_τ flux is, on the other hand, rather suppressed. We find that, for 10^3 < E/GeV < 5\cdot 10^7, the oscillated ν_τ flux along the galactic plane dominates over the maximal intrinsic atmospheric ν_τ flux, i.e., the flux along the horizontal direction. We also briefly mention the presently envisaged prospects for observing these high-energy tau neutrinos.

From DIS to proton-nucleus collisions in the Color Glass Condensate model

description: We show that particle production in proton-nucleus (pA) collisions in the Color Glass Condensate model can be related to Deep Inelastic Scattering of leptons on protons/nuclei (DIS). The common building block is the quark antiquark (or gluon-gluon) dipole cross section which is present in both DIS and pA processes. This correspondence in a sense generalizes the standard leading twist approach to pA collisions based on collinear factorization and perturbative QCD, and allows one to express the pA cross sections in terms of a universal quantity (dipole cross section) which, in principle, can be measured in DIS or other processes. Therefore, using the parameterization of dipole cross section at HERA, one can calculate particle production cross sections in proton-nucleus collisions at high energies. Alternatively, one could use proton-nucleus experiments to further constrain models of the dipole cross-section. We show that the McLerran-Venugopalan model predicts enhancement of cross sections at large p_t (Cronin effect) and suppression of cross sections at low p_t. The cross over depends on rapidity and moves to higher p_t as one goes to more forward rapidities.

Power structure under Marcus Aurelius
Creators: name: Brennan, Peter
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1966

description: Recent years have produced quite a few biographies of Marcus Aurelius; of varying quality they all follow the chronological line of the encyclopaedias and none penetrates deeply into the reign. Two Frenchmen, Charles Parain and Pierre de Proyart, both uncritical in their indiscriminate use of sources uncited, especially the Historia Augusta, overemphasize the concept of Marcus as the philosopher king. So does A.S.L. Farquharson. This is a heritage from Marcus’ own Meditations. Only rarely are the utterances of emperors extant in literary sources; care in interpretation is essential when they do appear, as in the res gestae of Augustus or in the letters of Trajan to Pliny. In Marcus’ case his philosophical theorizing has often led to a false evaluation of his political activities. Fr.Carrata Thomes gives more emphasis to him as a political figure, but his biographical account of the reign incorporates little of the abundant prosopographical material available. Indeed there seems to be no detailed systematic treatment of internal politics under the Antoninus, though individuals receive elucidation from such prosopographical experts as Groag, Syme, Pflaum, Carcopino, Lambrechts and E. Birley. To these men and to the methods refined by them this work naturally owes much.

description: The inclusion of cover crops in cropping systems brings direct and indirect costs and benefits. Farmers will adopt and utilize cover crops as long as the perceived benefit of using them is positive. This paper examines the demographic and management factors affecting the adoption and perceived benefit (in terms of improved crop yield) of using winter annual cover crops. A double selectivity model of cover crop adoption and perceived yield gain was estimated using survey data of Alabama farmers examining cover crop use and management. Results may help in understanding factors shaping farmers’ perceptions, adoption, and retention of cover crops.

description: The need for models that forecast land use change spans many disciplines and encompasses many approaches. Pattern-based models were the first in which projections of change at specific locations in actual landscapes could be predicted. In contrast, recent economic models have modeled the underlying behavioral process that produces land use change. This paper combines attributes from each approach into a hybrid model using a multiple discrete continuous extreme value formulation that allows for multiple conversion types, while also estimating the intensity of each type of conversion, which is an important but often overlooked dimension. We demonstrate the simulation routine, which successfully predicts a majority of growth by type, time, and location at a disaggregated scale, for a three-county region in Maryland.
title: Two dimensional superconductors for infrared photodetection
Creators: name: Orchin, Gavin John
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2021

description: There is increasing interest in discovering novel superconducting materials for use in photodetection. Superconductivity has for a long time been known to exist in layered materials but with recent advances in two dimensional (2D) materials processing, it is now possible to cleave these materials down to single and few layer thicknesses. For the first time we are now in a position to fabricate superconducting strips that are only a single molecular layer thick. Such an ultimately thin material offers exciting possibilities in both photodetection and materials science research. Presented here, is an original work investigating the photoresponse of few-layered niobium diselenide (NbSe2), a superconducting transition metal dichalcogenide. Current biased NbSe2 samples were tested optically at 1550 nm at cryogenic temperatures down to 350 mK. They show bolometric behaviour where the output signal amplitude increases with absorbed laser energy. At high currents, samples were observed to latch to intermediate resistances and become less sensitive to further laser excitations. A model has been developed which describes the observations as the result of a thermally stable hotspot due to the balance of Joule heating and in-plane heat conduction. These measurements mark the first successful demonstration of a photo-response in an exfoliated superconducting sample and will hopefully pave the way for future integration of 2D materials in complex optical systems.
Pair contact process with a particle source

description: We study the phase diagram and critical behavior of the one-dimensional pair contact process (PCP) with a particle source using cluster approximations and extensive simulations. The source creates isolated particles only, not pairs, and so couples not to the order parameter (the pair density) but to a non-ordering field, whose state influences the evolution of the order parameter. While the critical point p_c shows a singular dependence on the source intensity, the critical exponents appear to be unaffected by the presence of the source, except possibly for a small change in beta. In the course of our study we obtain high-precision values for the critical exponents of the standard PCP, confirming directed-percolation-like scaling.

On the interpretation of Parker Solar Probe Turbulent Signals

description: In this letter we propose a practical methodology to interpret future Parker Solar Probe (PSP) turbulent time signals even when Taylor's hypothesis is not valid. By extending Kraichnan's sweeping model used in hydrodynamics we derive the Eulerian spacetime correlation function in magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) turbulence. It is shown that in MHD, the temporal decorrelation of small-scale fluctuations arises from a combination of hydrodynamic sweeping induced by large-scale fluid velocity $δu_0$ and by the Alfvénic propagation along the local magnetic field. The resulting temporal part of the space-time correlation function is used to determine the wavenumber range $Δk_\perp=[k_{\rm min},k_{\rm max}]$ of the turbulent fluctuations that contribute to the power of a given frequency $ω$ of the time signal measured in the spacecraft frame. Our analysis also shows that the shape of frequency power spectrum $P_{sc}(ω)$ of the time signal will follow the same power-law of the reduced power spectrum $E(k_\perp)\sim k^{-α}_\perp$ in the plasma frame, where $α$ is the spectral index. The proposed framework for the analysis of PSP time signals entirely relies on two simple dimensionless parameters that can be empirically obtained from PSP measurements, namely, $ε=δu_0/\sqrt 2 V_\perp$ (where $V_\perp$ is the perpendicular velocity of PSP seen in the plasma frame) and the spectral index $α$.

description: On the example of a commercial microfinance institution (MFI) in Tanzania this paper investigates first whether agricultural firms have a different probability to get a loan and whether their loans are differently volume rationed than loans to non-agricultural firms. Second, we analyze whether agricultural firms repay their loans with different delinquencies than non-agricultural firms. Our results reveal that agricultural firms face higher obstacles to get credit but as soon as they have access to credit, their loans are not differently volume rationed than those of non-agricultural firms. Furthermore, agricultural firms are less often delinquent when paying back their loans than non-agricultural firms. Our findings suggest that a higher risk exposition of agricultural firms does not necessarily lead to higher credit risk. They also show that the investigated MFI overestimates the credit risk of agricultural clients and, hence, should reconsider its risk assessment practice to be able to increase lending to the agricultural sector. In addition, our results might indicate that farmers qualify less often for a loan as they do not fit into the standard micro credit product.

description: In many sensing and catalytic applications, the target molecule is required to be carried in an effective manner in a specific condition. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have high porosity, large surface area, and tunable functionality, and are promising carriers for such purposes. Current approaches to detect Tb3+ and reduce 4-nitrophenol are based on multistep methods. We synthesized a series of coordination polymers (1-4) with excellent fluorescence and catalytic activity. Moreover, 1 and 2 exhibit significantly higher fluorescence than other compounds, indicating that 1 and 2 could be efficient multifunctional fluorescence probes for high-sensitivity sensing of nitrobenzene, and 1 can be used as a highly-sensitive fluorescent sensor to detect Tb3+, with a detection limitation of 5 × 10−7 M. In addition, the as-prepared Ag@compound 1 shows remarkable catalytic performance to reduce 4-nitrophenol, with a reduction rate constant k as large as 2.07 × 10−2 s−1.

description: Many complex networks in nature have directed links, a property that affects the network's navigability and large-scale topology. Here we study the percolation properties of such directed scale-free networks with correlated in- and out-degree distributions. We derive a phase diagram that indicates the existence of three regimes, determined by the values of the degree exponents. In the first regime we regain the known directed percolation mean field exponents. In contrast, the second and third regimes are characterized by anomalous exponents, which we calculate analytically. In the third regime the network is resilient to random dilution, i.e., the percolation threshold is p_c->1.

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)

description: In this article, we present a systematic study of quantum statistics and dynamics of a pair of anyons in the lowerst Landau level (LLL), of direct relevance to quasiparticle excitations in the quantum Hall bulk. We develop the formalism for such a two-dimensional setting of two charged particles subject to a transverse field, including fractional angular momentum states and the related algebra stemming from the anyonic boundary condition, coherent state descriptions of localized anyons, and bunching features associated with such anyons. We analyze the dynamic motion of the anyons in a harmonic trap, emphasizing phase factors emerging from exchange statistics. We then describe non-equilibrium dynamics upon the application of a saddle potential, elaborating on its role as a squeezing operator acting on LLL coherent states, and its action as a beam splitter for anyons. Employing these potential landscapes as building blocks, we analyze anyon dynamics in a quantum Hall bulk interferometer. We discuss parallels between the presented LLL setting and other realms, extensively in the context of quantum optics, whose formalism we heavily borrow from, and briefly in that of black hole phenomena.

Adolescents’ dreams under Covid-19 isolation

description: Based on the continuity hypothesis of dreaming, we have studied the effects of quarantine/isolation on the dreams of Italian adolescents during the time of the Covid-19 pandemic. A sample of 235 subjects (73.2% girls; ages 12-18 years, M = 16.08, SD = 1.7) was involved. Participants were asked to complete the MADRE Questionnaire, as well as to report their Most Recent Dream by responding to specific questions related to this dream content (e.g., positive vs. negative emotions, realism/bizarreness, and presence of sensory impressions). Results indicated that girls recall, share, and record dreams more often than boys, in addition to reporting higher emotional intensity, predominantly negative emotions, and more nightmares, including recurrent ones. Results also indicated that participants who more frequently recall their dreams attribute significantly higher meaning to them, and are more interested in dreaming and in dream-related interpretations. Finally, the most recent dreams were set in both internal and external settings, with many family members and friends present. They were marked by strong negative emotions, especially related to dangerous, violent, and frustrating situations. In sum, the findings of this study indicate that the method of quali-quantitative dream content analysis is a very informative approach for studying the effects of significant contextual and catastrophic events on people’s inner lives.

description: We perform a comprehensive study of a number of rare charm decays, incorporating the first evaluation of the QCD corrections to the short distance contributions, as well as examining the long range effects. For processes mediated by the $c\to u\ell^+\ell^-$ transitions, we show that sensitivity to short distance physics exists in kinematic regions away from the vector meson resonances that dominate the total rate. In particular, we find that $D\toπ\ell^+\ell^-$ and $D\toρ\ell^+\ell^-$ are sensitive to non-universal soft-breaking effects in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with R-parity conservation. We separately study the sensitivity of these modes to R-parity violating effects and derive new bounds on R-parity violating couplings. We also obtain predictions for these decays within extensions of the Standard Model, including extensions of the Higgs, gauge and fermion sectors, as well as models of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking.

description: This brochure summarizes the revised empirical critical loads for N compared to 2011. 40 % of ecosystems react more sensitively to N than previously assumed. The ecosystems studied have been visualized to make them easier to understand. Two maps show the distribution of natural and semi-natural ecosystems on the one hand and the distribution of forest ecosystems in Europe and the neighboring countries of Eastern Europe, the Caucasus and Central Asia (EECCA) on the other. This brochure was developed as a low-threshold information tool for scientists, but also for politicians and the interested public in the EU and the EECCA countries.

 Remarks. Cormoids of Antennella incerta Galea, 2010 are remarkably small and slender, and specimens might easily be overlooked or mistaken for juveniles of another species. Colonies of A. incerta are distinguished in particular by having a single, laterally-displaced axillar nematotheca distal to each hydrotheca (Fig. 11b), and a pair of lateral nematothecae that are mug-shaped and deeply emarginated on the adcauline side, each borne on a long apophysis that reaches nearly to the hydrothecal margin (Fig. 11c). A perisarcal thickening marks the inner abcauline wall of the hydrotheca just above the base. Thecate internodes are saddle-shaped, and the terminal one of a hydrocladium does not extend beyond the axil between it and the hydrotheca or the bases of the nematothecal apophyses.
 This is only the second report of A. incerta, extending its known range northwards from the Caribbean Sea.
 Reported distribution. Atlantic coast of Florida. First record.
Western Atlantic. Florida (this study) to Guadeloupe (Galea 2010).

description: Nonlinear nanostructured surfaces provide a paradigm shift in nonlinear optics with new ways to control and manipulate frequency conversion processes at the nanoscale, also offering novel opportunities for applications in photonics, chemistry, material science, and biosensing. Here, we develop a general approach to employ sharp resonances in metasurfaces originated from the physics of bound states in the continuum for both engineering and enhancing the nonlinear response. We study experimentally the third-harmonic generation from metasurfaces composed of symmetry-broken silicon meta-atoms and reveal that the harmonic generation intensity depends critically on the asymmetry parameter. We employ the concept of the critical coupling of light to the metasurface resonances to uncover the effect of radiative and nonradiative losses on the nonlinear conversion efficiency.

description: The usual renormalization procedure for the variational approximation with a trial Gaussian ansatz for the $\lap$ model in 3+1 dimensions is re-analysed as a departing framework for the investigation of the parameters of the model. The so-called asymmetric phase of the model (where $ \neq 0$) is considered for the search of privileged values of these parameters (mass and coupling constant) and possible conditions they may be expected to satisfy. This also may yield a suitable approach for the investigation of the reliability and stability of the approximation. The extremization of the renormalized energy density with relation to the renormalized mass, coupling and $\bphi$ is done. The minimizations of the renormalized energy with relation to the mass and $\bphi$ provide different expressions from the ones obtained by the usual variational procedure for the regularized theory. Sort of ``energy scale'' invariances in expressions for the renormalized mass and coupling constant are found. A different view on the restoration of symmetry issue is discussed. The transcendental character of the GAP equation may be reduced or even eliminated by placing some variables in the complex plane.

Coping with Systemic Risk in Index-based Crop Insurance

description: The implementation of index-based crop insurance is often impeded by the existence of systemic risk of insured losses. We assess the effectiveness of two strategies for coping with systemic risk: regional diversification and securitization with catastrophe (CAT) bonds. The analysis is conducted in an equilibrium pricing framework which allows the optimal price of the insurance and the number of traded contracts to be determined. We also explore the role of basis risk and risk aversion of market agents. The model is applied to a hypothetical area yield insurance for rice producers in northeast China. If yields in two regions are positively correlated, we find that enlarging the insured area leads to an increasing insurance premium. Unless capital market investors are very risk averse, a CAT bond written on an area yield index outperforms regional diversification in terms of certainty equivalents of both farmers and insurers.
