description: The article discusses the issues of risk existing on the agricultural market in the context of globalization processes. It focuses on production risk which directly affects agricultural producers and also indirectly touches consumers of agricultural and food products. The paper aims to indicate significant legal market instruments which may reduce the risk or mitigate its negative effects. It also determines the role of an employer and market participants themselves in shaping the agricultural market and securing their revenues. The paper is based on a dogmatic analysis of normative texts and a descriptive method. It also refers to Polish and foreign books on the subject. /Synopsis. W artykule przedstawiono problematykę związaną z występującym na rynku rolnym ryzykiem w aspekcie procesów globalizacji. Chodzi tu o ryzyko produkcyjne, którego skutki odczuwają bezpośrednio producenci rolni, a pośrednio konsumenci produktów rolno-spożywczych. Celem artykułu jest wskazanie istotnych prawnych instrumentów rynkowych, których zastosowanie może ograniczać występowanie ryzyka, bądź minimalizować jego negatywne skutki. Artykuł zmierza do określenia roli prawodawcy, jak i samych uczestników rynku rolnego, zarówno w kształtowaniu jego organizacji, jak i zabezpieczaniu ich dochodów. W pracy zastosowano dogmatyczną metodę analizy aktów prawnych oraz metodę deskryptywną. Ponadto wykorzystano polską oraz zagraniczną literaturę przedmiotu.

description: There was considerable growth in demand for agricultural products for the production of biofuels in the 21st Century. This triggered certain changes in the structure of overall demand, including within the cereal market, which became more volatile as the scope of price fluctuations increased. The paper is an attempt to assess the impact of bioethanol market developments on the cereal market. The conducted analysis showed changes in the structure of demand and supply as the main causes of growing instability on the world cereal markets. The share of inelastic components of demand has grown and therefore price changes due to changes in supply are greater than at the beginning of the century, in particular in the case of low stock levels. / Synopsis. W XXI wieku znacznie wzrosły rozmiary popytu na surowce rolne z do produkcji biopaliw. W związku z tym, nastąpiły w strukturze globalnego popytu na produkty rolne, w tym na zboża. Światowe rynki produktów rolnych stały się mniej stabilne, zwiększyła się skala wahań cen. W artykule na podstawie danych empirycznych autor podejmuje próbę oceny wpływu rozwoju rynku bioetanolu na światowy rynek zbóż. Analiza wskazuje na zmiany struktury popytu i podąży jako jedną z głównych przyczyn wzrostu niestabilności światowych rynków zbóż. W strukturze popytu zwiększył się udział komponentów charakteryzujących się mniejszą elastycznością cenową i w związku z tym reakcja cen na zmiany podaży jest większa niż przed kilkunasty laty, szczególnie w warunkach niskiego poziomu zapasów.

description: Isotopic and isotonic chains of superheavy nuclei are analyzed to search for spherical double shell closures beyond Z=82 and N=126 within the new effective field theory model of Furnstahl, Serot, and Tang for the relativistic nuclear many-body problem. We take into account several indicators to identify the occurrence of possible shell closures, such as two-nucleon separation energies, two-nucleon shell gaps, average pairing gaps, and the shell correction energy. The effective Lagrangian model predicts N=172 and Z=120 and N=258 and Z=120 as spherical doubly magic superheavy nuclei, whereas N=184 and Z=114 show some magic character depending on the parameter set. The magicity of a particular neutron (proton) number in the analyzed mass region is found to depend on the number of protons (neutrons) present in the nucleus.

description: Using the Very Large Array (VLA) in the A-configuration, we have obtained a high-resolution 3.6 cm map of a hard X-ray source detected by the Chandra X-ray Observatory in a protostellar clump in Orion molecular cloud 3. Two radio continuum sources were detected in the vicinity of the X-ray source, both of which have NIR counterparts. We conclude that these VLA sources are free-free emission produced by shocks in protostellar jets from the NIR class I protostars. Using the centimeter data, we determined the power and orientation of the protostellar jets. The center position of the X-ray emission was found to be ~1--2" offset from the exciting sources of the jets, and the displacement is in the direction of the jets and molecular outflows. We discuss the nature of the X-ray emission as the shock-excited plasma at the shock front where the jet propagates through interstellar medium at a speed of ~1000 km/s.

description: Plantains and bananas are the principal crops in Puerto Rico, with the 2004 crop valued at US $89.8 million, representing 29 percent of the total annual Gross Agricultural Crops Income (GACI). After many years of being free of black sigatoka, the disease was detected in Puerto Rico in August 2004. The disease, which is caused by the fungus Mycosphaerella fijiensis, affects plantains and bananas and can reduce yields by as much as 90 percent. Government agencies have been funding research and assisting growers with the cost of treating the disease, but budgetary constraints may force the government to substantially scale back on funding these programs. The presence of the disease and the fact that eradication is highly improbable has also raised concerns over whether the current trade policy that restricts, the importation of plantains and bananas is no longer warranted. Consequently, this paper addresses two questions: 1. Should the government continue to subsidize the cost of treating the disease while maintaining strict prohibitions on plantain and banana imports? 2. Should the government remove the prohibitions on plantain and banana imports while still providing assistance to growers to treat the disease? The research utilizes an Equilibrium Displacement Model (EDM) to assess the effects of the proposed policy changes on plantain and banana prices, production, consumption, and revenue and welfare. The results suggest that it make sense for the government to continue to assist growers with treating the disease. The results also suggest that the modest gains to be made from opening of the market to imports of these commodities might not be sufficient to outweigh the potential losses that could arise from inadvertently introducing other invasive pests and diseases such a Moko disease and Papaya Fruit Fly which are sometimes transmitted via banana imports and can cause serious damage to the agriculture and ornamental industries.

description: We propose and test a method to interpolate sparsely sampled signals by a stochastic process with a broad range of spatial and/or temporal scales. To this end, we extend the notion of a fractional Brownian bridge, defined as fractional Brownian motion with a given scaling (Hurst) exponent $H$ and with prescribed start and end points, to a bridge process with an arbitrary number of intermediate and non-equidistant points. Determining the optimal value of the Hurst exponent, $H_{opt}$, appropriate to interpolate the sparse signal, is a very important step of our method. We demonstrate the validity of our method on a signal from fluid turbulence in a high Reynolds number flow and discuss the implications of the non-self-similar character of the signal. The method introduced here could be instrumental in several physical problems, including astrophysics, particle tracking, specific tailoring of surrogate data, as well as in domains of natural and social sciences.

description: Cryogenic helium-4 has extremely small kinetic viscosity, which makes it a promising material for high Reynolds ($Re$) number turbulence research in compact laboratory apparatuses. In its superfluid phase (He II), helium has an extraordinary heat transfer capability and has been utilized in various scientific and engineering applications. In order to unlock the full potential of helium in turbulence research and to improve our understanding of the heat transfer mechanism in He II, a flow facility that allows quantitative study of helium heat-and-mass transfer processes is needed. Here we report our work in assembling and testing a unique helium pipe flow facility that incorporates a novel double-line molecular tracking velocimetry (DL-MTV) system. This flow facility allows us to generate turbulent pipe flows with $Re$ above $10^7$, and it can also be adapted to produce heat-induced counterflow in He II. The DL-MTV system, which is based on the generation and tracking of two parallel thin He$^*_2$ molecular tracer lines with an adjustable separation distance, allows us to measure not only the velocity profile but also both the transverse and longitudinal spatial velocity structure functions. We have also installed a deferential pressure sensor to the flow pipe for pressure drop measurement. The testing results of the flow facility and the measurement devices are presented. We discuss how this facility will allow us to solve some outstanding problems in the helium heat-and-mass transfer topic area.

description: El minador del café, Leucoptera coffeella (Guerin Ménéville) es una de las piagas principales del cultivo del café mundialmente. Cuando las präcticas de control no son apropiadas ocasionan defoliation a los arboles de café afectando su produccion. Desde hace algunos anos se han estado buscando alternativas de control que sean viables tanto econômicamente como ambientalmente. Una de las técnicas sugeridas es la incrementation de uno de sus mäs abundantes parasitoides en el Caribe, el bracônido, Mirax insularis Muesebeck. Para la crianza masiva del huésped del bracônido utilizamos pläntulas de café (Coffea arabica L. cultivar Catuai) de très meses. Expusimos 65 pläntulas de café, cultivadas libres de insectos, a 60-80 adultos del minador del café dentro de una cajuela de infestation durante très dias. Removimos las pläntulas al cuarto dia después de la infestation y a los très dias siguientes introducimos los adultos del parasitoide para que parasitaran las minas présentes en las hojas por espacio de 48 horas. Al cabo de 13 dias podamos las hojas de cada plântula y las mantuvimos in Vitro para la recuperation de adultos. La introduction de los parasitoides se hizo de acuerdo al momento mäs adecuado de su huésped que es cuando las larvas del minador estân en el primer ο segundo instar, evento que ocurre entre los très y siete dias post-oviposiciôn. En promedio se recuperaron 4 ± 0.25 (μ ± SEM) adultos del parasitoide por cada hembra introducida. La recuperation de los adultos del parasitoide estuvo muy por debajo de lo esperado. La capacidad reproductiva del parasitoide bajo las condiciones de este estudio nos obliga a repensar la viabilidad de un programa de control biolôgico por incrementation utilizando a Mirax insularis como agente de biocontrol.

description: We present a discrete model of chemotaxis whereby cells responding to a chemoattractant are seen as individual agents whose movement is described through a set of rules that result in a biased random walk. In order to take into account possible alterations in cellular motility observed at high cell densities (i.e. volume-filling), we let the probabilities of cell movement be modulated by a decaying function of the cell density. We formally show that a general form of the celebrated Patlak–Keller–Segel (PKS) model of chemotaxis can be formally derived as the appropriate continuum limit of this discrete model. The family of steady-state solutions of such a generalized PKS model are characterized and the conditions for the emergence of spatial patterns are studied via linear stability analysis. Moreover, we carry out a systematic quantitative comparison between numerical simulations of the discrete model and numerical solutions of the corresponding PKS model, both in one and in two spatial dimensions. The results obtained indicate that there is excellent quantitative agreement between the spatial patterns produced by the two models. Finally, we numerically show that the outcomes of the two models faithfully replicate those of the classical PKS model in a suitable asymptotic regime.

description: Numerous metamorphic and polymorphic malicious variants are generated automatically on a daily basis by mutation engines that transform the code of a malicious program while retaining its functionality, in order to evade signature-based detection. These automatic processes have greatly increased the number of malware variants, deeming their fully-manual analysis impossible. Malware classification is the task of determining to which family a new malicious variant belongs. Variants of the same malware family show similar behavioral patterns. Thus, classifying newly discovered malicious programs and applications helps assess the risks they pose. Moreover, malware classification facilitates determining which of the newly discovered variants should undergo manual analysis by a security expert, in order to determine whether they belong to a new family (e.g., one whose members exploit a zero-day vulnerability) or are simply the result of a concept drift within a known malicious family. This motivated intense research in recent years on devising high-accuracy automatic tools for malware classification. In this work, we present DAEMON - a novel dataset-agnostic malware classifier. A key property of DAEMON is that the type of features it uses and the manner in which they are mined facilitate understanding the distinctive behavior of malware families, making its classification decisions explainable. We've optimized DAEMON using a large-scale dataset of x86 binaries, belonging to a mix of several malware families targeting computers running Windows. We then re-trained it and applied it, without any algorithmic change, feature re-engineering or parameter tuning, to two other large-scale datasets of malicious Android applications consisting of numerous malware families. DAEMON obtained highly accurate classification results on all datasets, establishing that it is also platform-agnostic.

description: Phonon dispersion in a two-dimensional electron-lattice system described by a two-dimensional square-lattice version of Su-Schrieffer-Heeger's model and having the half-filled electronic band is studied theoretically at temperatures higher than the mean field critical temperature of the Peierls transition. When the temperature is lowered from the higher region down to the critical one, softening of multi phonon modes which have wave vectors equal to the nesting vector $\vv{Q}=(π/a,π/a)$ with $a$ the lattice constant or parallel to $\vv{Q}$ is observed. Although both of the transverse and longitudinal modes are softened at the critical temperature in the case of the wave vector equal to $\vv{Q}$, only the transverse modes are softened for other wave vectors parallel to $\vv{Q}$. This behavior is consistent with the Peierls distortions at lower temperatures.

description: We consider a branching model of triggered seismicity, the ETAS (epidemic-type aftershock sequence) model which assumes that each earthquake can trigger other earthquakes (``aftershocks''). An aftershock sequence results in this model from the cascade of aftershocks of each past earthquake. Due to the large fluctuations of the number of aftershocks triggered directly by any earthquake (``productivity'' or ``fertility''), there is a large variability of the total number of aftershocks from one sequence to another, for the same mainshock magnitude. We study the regime where the distribution of fertilities $μ$ is characterized by a power law $\sim 1/μ^{1+γ}$ and the bare Omori law for the memory of previous triggering mothers decays slowly as $\sim 1/t^{1+θ}$, with $0 < θ<1$ relevant for earthquakes. Using the tool of generating probability functions and a quasistatic approximation which is shown to be exact asymptotically for large durations, we show that the density distribution of total aftershock lifetimes scales as $\sim 1/t^{1+θ/γ}$ when the average branching ratio is critical ($n=1$).

title: Permeation studies of hydrogen in 304 and 316 stainless steel: the influence of surface oxides
Creators: name: Grant, David M.

description: A time varying harmonically modulated flow method, analysed with a two rate constant surface reaction model, provides a series of permeation, Pm, diffusion, D, and surface rate coefficients, k1, k2, for hydrogen passing through 304 and 316 stainless steel. The method developed here allows the evaluation of a consistent set of bulk metal values of D and Pm, in the temperature range 502 < T/K < 963, despite wide ranging surface conditions, and are described by:

D304=(1.22±0.06)x10-8exp{[-(6.596±0.049)x103/T]/K-1} m2s-1
Pm304=(4.82±0.21)x10-7exp{[-(7.990±0.044)x103/T]/K-1} molm 1s-1Pa-1/2
D316=(7.28±0.94)x10-7exp{[-(6.296±0.109)x103/T]/K-1} m2s-1
Pm316=(8.09±0.70)x10-7exp{[-(8.189±0.076)x103/T]/K-1} molm-1s-1Pa-1/2

 When surfaces are treated to form a stable oxide layer, the surface reaction rate constants are found to be interpretable in terms of molecular flow of hydrogen through the oxide. The permeation coefficients, Pmox, describing this flow are as follows:

Pmox3o4=(1.43±0.29)x10-11exp([-7.661±0.081)x103/T)/K-1) molm-1s-1Pa-1
Pmox3ls=(5.36±2.68)x10-11exp{[-6.967±0.228)x103/T)/K-1) molm-1s-1Pa-1

description: We present a discrete model of chemotaxis whereby cells responding to a chemoattractant are seen as individual agents whose movement is described through a set of rules that result in a biased random walk. In order to take into account possible alterations in cellular motility observed at high cell densities (i.e. volume-filling), we let the probabilities of cell movement be modulated by a decaying function of the cell density. We formally show that a general form of the celebrated Patlak–Keller–Segel (PKS) model of chemotaxis can be formally derived as the appropriate continuum limit of this discrete model. The family of steady-state solutions of such a generalized PKS model are characterized and the conditions for the emergence of spatial patterns are studied via linear stability analysis. Moreover, we carry out a systematic quantitative comparison between numerical simulations of the discrete model and numerical solutions of the corresponding PKS model, both in one and in two spatial dimensions. The results obtained indicate that there is excellent quantitative agreement between the spatial patterns produced by the two models. Finally, we numerically show that the outcomes of the two models faithfully replicate those of the classical PKS model in a suitable asymptotic regime.

description: A vegetable garden project is an excellent way to develop life skills including decision making, record keeping, enhanced self-esteem, and good work ethic in youth. It also promotes a healthy lifestyle by developing an enjoyment in gardening and consumption of fresh vegetables. The objectives of this project are to teach youth: basic horticulture skills to implement a garden plan; how to make educated decisions in the care of their gardens based on knowledge gain; utilization of grown vegetables as part of a healthy nutrition plan; and to encourage a sense of citizenship through donations of vegetables to those in need. Over the last two years summative evaluations of 148 youth participants were collected from garden judging, vegetable exhibits, and record book scores. Results found: 98% completed the project; 75% received a blue ribbon score of 90% or higher on their record book; 100% prepared at least one recipe from the vegetables grown, and a follow-up survey of ten youth indicated 100% knowledge gain and reported developing record keeping, time management, decision making, and problem solving skills and enhanced self esteem.

description: Genus Baculopora Wyse Jackson, 1988
 TYPE SPECIES. — Vincularia megastoma M’Coy, 1844 by original designation. Mississippian; Ireland.
DIAGNOSIS. — Acanthocladiid forming delicate irregularly branching colonies; branches divide, or develop as lateral branches; branches straight or gently flexulous and taper distally, with four to seven rows of autozooecia on main and lateral branches; reverse surface longitudinally striated with microstylets; autozooecial bases pentagonal to hexagonal (diamond-shaped) (modified after Wyse Jackson, 1988, p. 198, Wyse Jackson, 1996, p. 140).
 OCCURRENCE. — Two definite species are known: Baculopora megastoma (M’Coy, 1844) from the Mississippian of Ireland, Germany, Russia, and B. redondensis n. sp. from the Mississippian of France (present paper). Baculopora sp. was mentioned from the Mississippian of Mongolia (Morozova et al. 2003: 131).
COMPARISON
 Baculopora Wyse Jackson, 1988 resembles Ichthyorachis M’Coy, 1844 in possessing four to six rows of autozooecia on branches, but lacks regularly offset or opposite secondary lateral branches.
R EMARKS
 The species Pseudohornera ossipovae Schulga-Nesterenko, 1955 from the upper Visean (Mississippian) of Russia coincides in its morphology and dimensions with Baculopora megastoma (M’Coy, 1844). Therefore, Pseudohornera ossipovae is synonymised with the latter species.

A hybrid post-Newtonian -- effective-one-body scheme for spin-precessing compact-binary waveforms

description: We introduce \texttt{TEOBResumSP}: an efficient, accurate hybrid scheme for generating gravitational waveforms from spin-precessing compact binaries. The precessing waveforms are generated via the established technique of Euler rotating the non-precessing \texttt{TEOBResumS} waveforms from a precessing frame to an inertial frame. We obtain the Euler angles by solving the post-Newtonian precession equations expanded to second post-Newtonian order. Current version of \texttt{TEOBResumSP} produces precessing waveforms through the inspiral phase up to the onset of the merger. We compare \texttt{TEOBResumSP} to current state-of-the-art precessing approximants \texttt{NRSur7dq4}, \texttt{SEOBNRv4PHM}, and \texttt{IMRPhenomPv3HM} for 200 cases of precessing compact binary inspirals with orbital inclinations up to 90 degrees, mass ratios up to four, and the effective precession parameter $χ_p$ up to 0.75. We further provide an extended comparison with \texttt{SEOBNRv4PHM} involving 1030 more inspirals with $χ_p\le 1$ and mass ratios up to 10. We find that 91\% of the \texttt{TEOBResumSP}-\texttt{NRSur7dq4} matches, 85\% of the \texttt{TEOBResumSP}-\texttt{SEOBNRv4PHM} matches, and 77\% of the \texttt{TEOBResumSP}-\texttt{IMRPhenomPv3HM} matches are greater than $0.965$. Most disagreements occur for large mass ratios and $χ_p \gtrsim 0.6$. We identify the mismatch of the \emph{non}-precessing $(2,1)$ mode as one of the leading causes of disagreements. We also introduce a new parameter, $χ_{\perp,\text{max}}$, to measure the strength of precession and hint that the mismatch between the above approximants shows an exponential dependence on $χ_{\perp,\text{max}}$ though this requires further study. Our results indicate that \texttt{TEOBResumSP} is on its way to becoming a robust precessing approximant to be employed in the parameter estimation of generic-spin compact binaries.

description: A library of 183588 synthetic spectra based on Kurucz's ATLAS9 models is presented for the far red spectral interval (7653 -- 8747Å). It is characterized by 3500 K <= T_eff <= 47500 K, 0.0 <= log g <= 5.0, -3.0 <= [M/H] <= +0.5, 0 <= V_rot <= 500 km/s, xi = 2 km/s. The whole grid of spectra is calculated for resolving powers 8500, 11500 and 20000. A section of the grid is also computed for [alpha/Fe]=+0.4 and for microturbulent velocities 0 and 4 km/s. The library covers the wavelength ranges and resolutions of the two ambitious spectroscopic surveys by the ground experiment RAVE and the space mission GAIA. Cross-sections across the multi-dimensional data-cube are used to illustrate the behaviour of the strongest spectral lines. Interpretation of real data will have to include interpolation to grid substeps. We present a simple estimate of the accuracy of such a procedure.

description: We used the EMoCA survey data to search for isocyanides in Sgr B2(N2) and their corresponding cyanide analogs. We then used the coupled three-phase chemical kinetics code MAGICKAL to simulate their chemistry. Several new species, and over 100 new reactions have been added to the network. In addition, a new single-stage simultaneous collapse/warm-up model has been implemented, thus eliminating the need for the previous two-stage models. A variable, visual extinction-dependent $ζ$ was also incorporated into the model and tested. We report the tentative detection of CH$_3$NC and HCCNC in Sgr B2(N2), which represents the first detection of both species in a hot core of Sgr B2. Our updated chemical models can reproduce most observed NC:CN ratios reasonably well depending on the physical parameters chosen. The model that performs best has an extinction-dependent cosmic-ray ionization rate that varies from ~2 $\times$ 10$^{-15}$ s$^{-1}$ at the edge of the cloud to ~1 $\times$ 10$^{-16}$ s$^{-1}$ in the center. Models with higher extinction-dependent $ζ$ than this model generally do not agree as well, nor do models with a constant $ζ$ greater than the canonical value of 1.3 $\times$ 10$^{-17}$ s$^{-1}$ throughout the source. Radiative transfer models are run using results of the best-fit chemical model. Column densities produced by the radiative transfer models are significantly lower than those determined observationally. Inaccuracy in the observationally determined density and temperature profiles is a possible explanation. Excitation temperatures are well reproduced for the true ``hot core'' molecules, but are more variable for other molecules such as HC$_3$N, for which fewer lines exist in ALMA Band 3.
