description: The evolution of an initially stellar dipole type magnetosphere interacting with an accretion disk is investigated using numerical ideal MHD simulations. The simulations follow several 1000 Keplerian periods of the inner disk. The initial dipole type magnetic field develops into a spherically radial outflow pattern with two main components both evolving into a quasi-stationary final state. A neutral field line divides both components, along which small plasmoids are ejected in irregular time intervals. The half opening angle of the stellar wind cone varies from 30 to 55 degrees depending on the ratio of the mass flow rates of disk wind and stellar wind. The maximum speed of the outflow is about the Keplerian speed at the inner disk radius. An axial jet forms during the first decades of rotation. However, this feature does not survive on the very long time scale and a pressure driven low velocity flow along the axis evolves.

description: Magnetic dipole bands have been identified in 142,143,144Gd and 141Eu nuclei. The observed bands are based on configurations with small oblate deformation involving high-Omega, h11/2 proton particles and low-Omega, h11/2 neutron holes. Information about the strength of the effective interaction between the constituent nucleons has been deduced using a semiclassical scheme of the coupling of two angular momentum vectors. The experimental results are compared with predictions of tilted axis cranking calculations. The transition from irregular dipole band in 144Gd to more regular ones in lighter Gd nuclei is observed.

description: Modeling and forecasting forward citations to a patent is a central task for the discovery of emerging technologies and for measuring the pulse of inventive progress. Conventional methods for forecasting these forward citations cast the problem as analysis of temporal point processes which rely on the conditional intensity of previously received citations. Recent approaches model the conditional intensity as a chain of recurrent neural networks to capture memory dependency in hopes of reducing the restrictions of the parametric form of the intensity function. For the problem of patent citations, we observe that forecasting a patent's chain of citations benefits from not only the patent's history itself but also from the historical citations of assignees and inventors associated with that patent. In this paper, we propose a sequence-to-sequence model which employs an attention-of-attention mechanism to capture the dependencies of these multiple time sequences. Furthermore, the proposed model is able to forecast both the timestamp and the category of a patent's next citation. Extensive experiments on a large patent citation dataset collected from USPTO demonstrate that the proposed model outperforms state-of-the-art models at forward citation forecasting.

description: We introduce Bayesian additive regression trees (BART) for log-linear models including multinomial logistic regression and count regression with zero-inflation and overdispersion. BART has been applied to nonparametric mean regression and binary classification problems in a range of settings. However, existing applications of BART have been mostly limited to models for Gaussian “data,” either observed or latent. This is primarily because efficient MCMC algorithms are available for Gaussian likelihoods. But while many useful models are naturally cast in terms of latent Gaussian variables, many others are not—including models considered in this article. We develop new data augmentation strategies and carefully specified prior distributions for these new models. Like the original BART prior, the new prior distributions are carefully constructed and calibrated to be flexible while guarding against overfitting. Together the new priors and data augmentation schemes allow us to implement an efficient MCMC sampler outside the context of Gaussian models. The utility of these new methods is illustrated with examples and an application to a previously published dataset. Supplementary materials for this article are available online.

description: We investigate the behaviour of cosmological baryons at low redshifts $z<5$ after reionization through analytic means. In particular, we study the density-temperature phase-diagram which describes the history of the gas. We show how the location of the matter in this $(ρ,T)$ diagram expresses the various constraints implied by usual hierarchical scenarios. This yields robust model-independent results which agree with numerical simulations. The IGM is seen to be formed via two phases: a ``cool'' photo-ionized component and a ``warm'' component governed by shock-heating. We also briefly describe how the remainder of the matter is distributed over galaxies, groups and clusters. We recover the fraction of matter and the spatial clustering computed by numerical simulations. We also check that the soft X-ray background due to the ``warm'' IGM component is consistent with observations. We find in the present universe a baryon fraction of 7% in hot gas, 24% in the warm IGM, 38% in the cool IGM, 9% within star-like objects and, as a still un-observed component, 22% of dark baryons associated with collapsed structures, with a relative uncertainty no larger than 30% on these numbers.

title: The Effect of the Federal Reserve’s Tapering Announcements on Emerging Markets
Creators: name: Rai, Vikram

Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2014

description: The Federal Reserve’s quantitative easing (QE) program has been accompanied by a flow of funds into emerging-market economies (EMEs) in search of higher returns. When Federal Reserve officials first mentioned an eventual slowdown and end of purchases under the central bank’s QE program in May and June 2013, foreign investors started to withdraw some of these funds, leading to capital outflows, a drop in EME currencies and stock markets, and a rise in bond yields. Using an event-study approach, this paper estimates the impact of “Fed tapering” on EME financial markets and capital flows for 19 EMEs. Results suggest that EMEs with strong fundamentals (e.g., stronger growth and current account position, lower debt, and higher growth in business confidence and productivity), saw more favourable responses to Fed communications on tapering. Capital account openness initially played a role as well, but diminished in importance in subsequent tapering announcements.
description: Le programme d’assouplissement quantitatif mis en oeuvre par la Réserve fédérale a entraîné un afflux de capitaux vers les économies de marché émergentes, à la faveur d’une quête de rendements. En mai et juin 2013, des représentants de la Réserve fédérale ont pour la première fois évoqué la possibilité de ralentir le rythme des achats d’actifs et de mettre fin au programme d’assouplissement quantitatif. Les investisseurs étrangers ont alors réagi à ces annonces en retirant une partie de leurs capitaux des économies de marché émergentes, ces sorties de fonds provoquant dans ces pays une dépréciation des monnaies, un recul des marchés boursiers et une hausse des rendements obligataires. À l’aide d’une étude événementielle, les auteurs estiment l’incidence de la réduction des achats d’actifs de la Réserve fédérale sur les marchés financiers de 19 économies émergentes ainsi que sur les flux de capitaux qui leur sont destinés. Les résultats donnent à penser que les répercussions des annonces concernant le ralentissement des achats d’actifs par la Fed ont été moins défavorables pour les économies émergentes aux facteurs fondamentaux solides (croissance forte, balance courante positive, dette publique faible, confiance et productivité accrues des entreprises, etc.). La libéralisation du compte de capital a aussi joué un rôle au début, mais l’importance de cet effet a diminué au fil des annonces.

description: Family CERVIDAE Gray, 1821  Gen. et sp. indet.   A right mandible, FM-2100 (Fig. 3J), and its left counterpart, FM-2101, are the only cervid remains from the Miocene of Strumyani (SW Bulgaria). The teeth are in medium wear, and well preserved. The premolars are long relative to the molars, especially p2 that is almost as long as p3 and p4. The parastylid is distinct from the paraconid on p3 and p4. The p3 has a conical metaconid, but on p4 this cuspid produces distal and mesial flanges, the latter closing the central valley by contacting the paraconid. In contrast to most other Upper Miocene cervids, the labial groove of p4 is shallow. The molars have no Palaeomeryx -fold, and the lingual wall of the m3 hypoconulid is oblique in occlusal view. Measurements are: L p2-p4 = 28.3; L m1-m3 = 42.9.
Without antler, identification of a cervid is highly speculative, and we prefer to refrain from naming the Strumyani one, especially as there are a number of different species (and perhaps many more different names) in the late Miocene. Furthermore, this cervid displays some remarkable features (large p2, p4 much more molarized than p3) unmatched in other localities, and its teeth have no special resemblance to any of them. Unidentified cervid remains from the Turolian of South-Western Bulgaria are known also from the localities of Hadjidimovo and Ploski-Bairamitsa.

$ρ/ω$ properties from dilepton spectra in $p A$ reactions at 12 GeV

description: The dilepton production from $pC$ and $pCu$ collisions at $T_{lab}=12$ GeV is calculated using the semi-classical BUU transport model, that includes the off-shell propagation of vector mesons nonperturbatively and calculates the width of the vector mesons dynamically. It is found that the collisional broadening of the vector meson width and dropping vector meson masses lead to a small enhancement of the dilepton yield below the $ω$ meson mass pole in $p Cu$ collisions compared to $p C$, which is, however, not sufficient to explain the enhanced production of dileptons as observed in the experiment by the KEK-PS E325 collaboration. It is argued that such in-medium effects are expected to be small due to kinematical reasons -- the dominant part of vector mesons radiate dileptons and decay outside the nucleus due to the finite formation time for $ρ$ and $ω$ mesons, which is large by Lorentz covariance since the produced vector mesons move with high velocity relative to the target nucleus.

description: In the context of learning deterministic policies in continuous domains, we revisit an approach, which was first proposed in Continuous Actor Critic Learning Automaton (CACLA) and later extended in Neural Fitted Actor Critic (NFAC). This approach is based on a policy update different from that of deterministic policy gradient (DPG). Previous work has observed its excellent performance empirically, but a theoretical justification is lacking. To fill this gap, we provide a theoretical explanation to motivate this unorthodox policy update by relating it to another update and making explicit the objective function of the latter. We furthermore discuss in depth the properties of these updates to get a deeper understanding of the overall approach. In addition, we extend it and propose a new trust region algorithm, Penalized NFAC (PeNFAC). Finally, we experimentally demonstrate in several classic control problems that it surpasses the state-of-the-art algorithms to learn deterministic policies.

The dominant contribution, the $γ$N-$η$N amplitude, is described within an isobar model. The final state interaction derived from the CD-Bonn potential is included and found to be important for the description of the production cross section close to threshold. Possible effects from the $ηN$ final state interaction are discussed.

description: Fusion learning refers to synthesizing inferences from multiple sources or studies to make a more effective inference and prediction than from any individual source or study alone. Most existing methods for synthesizing inferences rely on parametric model assumptions, such as normality, which often do not hold in practice. We propose a general nonparametric fusion learning framework for synthesizing inferences for multiparameters from different studies. The main tool underlying the proposed framework is the new notion of depth confidence distribution (depth-CD), which is developed by combining data depth and confidence distribution. Broadly speaking, a depth-CD is a data-driven nonparametric summary distribution of the available inferential information for a target parameter. We show that a depth-CD is a powerful inferential tool and, moreover, is an omnibus form of confidence regions, whose contours of level sets shrink toward the true parameter value. The proposed fusion learning approach combines depth-CDs from the individual studies, with each depth-CD constructed by nonparametric bootstrap and data depth. The approach is shown to be efficient, general and robust. Specifically, it achieves high-order accuracy and Bahadur efficiency under suitably chosen combining elements. It allows the model or inference structure to be different among individual studies. And, it readily adapts to heterogeneous studies with a broad range of complex and irregular settings. This last property enables the approach to use indirect evidence from incomplete studies to gain efficiency for the overall inference. We develop the theoretical support for the proposed approach, and we also illustrate the approach in making combined inference for the common mean vector and correlation coefficient from several studies. The numerical results from simulated studies show the approach to be less biased and more efficient than the traditional approaches in nonnormal settings. The advantages of the approach are also demonstrated in a Federal Aviation Administration study of aircraft landing performance. Supplementary materials for this article are available online.

description: The results from an X-ray spectroscopic study of the giant elliptical galaxy NGC5044 in the center of a galaxy group are presented. The line dominated soft X-ray spectra (mainly Fe-L and O VIII Ly_a) from the diffuse gas are resolved for the first time in this system with the Reflection Grating Spectrometers on-board XMM-Newton and provide a strong constraint on the temperature structure. The spectra integrated over 2' (\sim 20kpc) in full-width can be described by a two temperature plasma model of 0.7keV and 1.1keV. Most of the latter component is consistent with originating from off-center regions. Compared to the isobaric cooling flow prediction, the observation shows a clear cut-off below a temperature of 0.6 +-0.1keV. Furthermore, the Fe and O abundances within the central 10--20kpc in radius are accurately measured to be 0.55+-0.05 and 0.25+-0.1 times the solar ratios, respectively. The observed cut-off temperature of this galaxy and other central galaxies in galaxy groups and clusters are compared with the scale of the galaxy and properties of the surrounding intra-cluster medium. Based on this comparison, the origin of the lack of predicted cool emission is discussed.

description: A subset $S$ of vertices of a digraph $D$ is a double dominating set (total $2$-dominating set) if every vertex not in $S$ is adjacent from at least two vertices in $S$, and every vertex in $S$ is adjacent from at least one vertex in $S$ (the subdigraph induced by $S$ has no isolated vertices). The double domination number (total $2$-domination number) of a digraph $D$ is the minimum cardinality of a double dominating set (total $2$-dominating set) in $D$. In this work, we investigate these concepts which can be considered as two extensions of double domination in graphs to digraphs, along with the concepts $2$-limited packing and total $2$-limited packing which have close relationships with the above-mentioned concepts.

description: The New European Wind Atlas (NEWA project) will be the based on 30 years of simulations with the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model and the additional microscale downscaling. The broader European domain is partitioned into a set of 10 partially overlapping tiles that reach a horizontal resolution of 3 km and are blended into a single domain. Additionally, a probabilistic wind atlas assessment seeks to quantify wind resource uncertainties by developing an ensemble of 1-year WRF simulations over the complete NEWA domain with different model setups (e.g. Figure 1). An initial ensemble of 47 members was performed for a few domains. This allowed first, for designing an optimal model configuration for the mesoscale wind atlas production run, and second, for identifying a group of model configurations that contributed with large spread to the probabilistic assessment. The parameters that were found to have the largest effect on model spread were the choice of land surface model, the PBL scheme or the surface layer scheme. We try to quantify model sensitivity with several metrics that allow to evaluate in space and time the maximum range of differences in the ensemble of simulations. Additionally, projection in the space of empirical orthogonal functions allows for an objective classification of wind regions and quantification of model spread. The reduced set of model configurations that contribute most to model spread were used to obtain the probabilistic ensemble over the complete NEWA domain and one representative year. The output of the ensemble simulations, i.e. ensemble mean and spread among other metrics, is used to create a map displaying the uncertainty in the wind resource estimate at each geographical location.

description: As an alternative explanation of the entropy excess and the steepening of the X-ray luminosity-temperature relation in groups and clusters, the galaxy formation-regulated gas evolution (GG) model proposed recently by Bryan makes an attempt to incorporate the formation of galaxies into the evolution of gas without additional heating by nongravitational processes. This seems to provide a unified scheme for our understanding of the structures and evolution of both galaxies and gas in groups and clusters. In this paper, we present an extensive comparison of the X-ray properties of groups and clusters predicted by the GG model and those revealed by current X-ray observations, using various large data sources in the literature and also taking the observational selection effects into account. These include an independent check of the fundamental working hypothesis of the GG model, i.e., galaxy formation was less efficient in rich clusters than in groups, a new test of the radial gas distributions revealed by both the gas mass fraction and the X-ray surface brightness profiles, and an reexamination of the X-ray luminosity-temperature and entropy-temperature relations. In particular, it shows that the overall X-ray surface brightness profiles predicted by the GG model are very similar in shape, insensitive to the X-ray temperature, and the shallower X-ray surface brightness profiles seen at low-temperature systems may arise from the current observational selection effect. This can be used as the simplest approach to distinguishing between the GG model and the preheating scenario. The latter yields an intrinsically shallower gas distribution in groups than in rich clusters.

description: Palaeoreas lindermayeri Wagner, 1848
 This antelope is quite common at Strumyani. It is represented by a complete skull, FM-2738, (Fig. 13A), two frontlets, FM-2740 (Fig. 13F) and FM-2780 (Fig. 13G), and several mandibles (Fig. 13B, C; measurements: Tables 4; 5). They display the typical features of this species (Bouvrain 1980; Geraads et al. 2003). The horn-cores are moderately inclined posteriorly, with their anterior edge in the same plane as the frontals, and rather far from the orbits. They are massive relative to skull size, divergent by an angle of about 50°, strongly twisted on their axis but with no spiralling, slightly compressed medio-laterally, with a sharp but not very strong postero-lateral keel and a more blunt anterior one. The mid-frontal suture is fused, only a trace of it being visible on the frontlet; the supra-orbital foramina open into large and deep depressions that are not very wide apart. Both sides of the occipital face mostly posteriorly; the basioccipital is quite long for the size of the animal, it has a long central grove, and strong anterior tuberosities. The parietal has a straight top surface that is much inclined in respect to the facial plane, the frontals being much raised between the horn-cores.
 Several mandibles can probably also be referred to this species. On the molars, the labial walls are somewhat convex, there is a small ectostylid, at least on m1, a clear goat fold, and the third lobe of m3 is rather small. The premolars are moderately long (index Pm/M = 55-60), p3 and p4 are similar to each other, with a parastylid well distinct from the paraconid, an oblique metaconid cristid only slightly more transverse and inflated lingually on p4, and a broad labial groove between protoconid and hypoconid. The size range of the tooth rows is about the same as those of P. lindermayeri from Pikermi, but average smaller than those from Hadjidimovo. The horn core diameters (Fig. 14) are also smaller than at Hadjidimovo and close to the ones from Pikermi and Kalimantsi (Geraads et al. 2003).

description: A highly-deformed rotational band has been identified in the N=Z nucleus 36Ar. At high spin the band is observed to its presumed termination at I=16+, while at low spin it has been firmly linked to previously known states in 36Ar. Spins, parities, and absolute excitation energies have thus been determined throughout the band. Lifetime measurements establish a large low-spin quadrupole deformation (beta_2=0.46+-0.03) and indicate a decreasing collectivity as the band termination is approached. With effectively complete spectroscopic information and a valence space large enough for significant collectivity to develop, yet small enough to be meaningfully approached from the shell model perspective, this rotational band in 36Ar provides many exciting opportunities to test and compare complementary models of collective motion in nuclei.

description: During the past earthquakes, different low ductile failure modes are observed in the gravity design structures and thus, the most of existing damage indices may fail to assess the damage of gravity design structures accurately in referring to the two main performance levels: immediate occupancy and ultimate limit state. Therefore, this study investigates the energy dissipated by the brittle structures and the possible damage indices based on energy for the damage assessment of gravity design frames. In the framework of an Energy-Based Seismic Design Approach, we need the assessment of the Demand and on the Capacity, both expressed in Energy. A methodology for the assessment of the seismic energy demands imposed on structures is already proposed, but not such methodology that makes consensus is proposed for the calculation of the Energy dissipation Capacity avoiding the Hysteretic models. The estimation of the energy expended by the building during an earthquake excitation is a tricky issue. For this purpose, this study considers the wavelet based energy estimation and compares it with different approaches for measuring the damages of a structure: the dominant inelastic period of a building and the more classical measure, the inter-story drift. IDA analysis are performed in energy, drift and inelastic period. Furthermore, the damage assessment results based on the expended energy for three gravity design buildings are compared and discussed relatively to the results expressed in inelastic period and drift. Finally, this study concludes that no significant effects of number of inelastic cycles to the damage assessment results for low ductile structures. However, this study also highlights the effects of number of inelastic cycles to the damage for medium and high ductile structures.

description: Allergic diseases (AD) are significant and hence rapid and accurate immunoglobulin E (IgE) determination is critical for diagnosis and treatment. Herein, a rapid, sensitive, and quantitative immunochromatographic test strip was designed for assaying IgE in human serum based on laboratory-constructed time-resolved fluorescent nanospheres (LTRFNs) which have large specific surface areas and multiple carboxyl groups in the outer layer with efficient coupling to the antibodies. Using the stable fluorescence created by the LTRFNs, the test strip accurately quantified IgE for early diagnosis with a detection limit of 4.2 ng/mL. The test strip has a long working range from 8 to 1024 ng/mL, and excellent performance, including high sensitivity, good inter-batch repeatability, and stability. Furthermore, the analysis of 30 clinical serum samples showed good correlation with a commercial chemiluminescence protocol. Therefore, the laboratory-constructed test strip has potential as a novel tool for clinical diagnosis and a rapid home test for allergic diseases.

description: We present a novel source of dark energy, which is motivated by the prevalence of hidden sectors in string theory models and is consistent with all of the proposed swampland conjectures. Thermal effects hold a light hidden sector scalar at a point in field space that is not a minimum of its zero temperature potential. This leads to an effective "cosmological constant", with an equation of state $w=-1$, despite the scalar's zero temperature potential having only a 4D Minkowski or AdS vacuum. For scalar masses $\lesssim μ$eV, which could be technically natural via sequestering, there are large regions of phenomenologically viable parameter space such that the induced vacuum energy matches the measured dark energy density. Additionally, in many models a standard cosmological history automatically leads to the scalar having the required initial conditions. We study the possible observational signals of such a model, including at fifth force experiments and through $ΔN_{\rm eff}$ measurements. Similar dynamics that are active at earlier times could resolve the tension between different measurements of $H_0$ and can lead to a detectable stochastic gravitational wave background.

description: The caloric curve (excitation energy per particle as a function of temperature) for finite nuclei is calculated within the non-linear Walecka model for different proton fractions and different parameterizations. The results obtained are compared with published experimental data and other theoretical results. Other properties related with the droplet formation as the surface energy, neutron skin thickness and binding energy per nucleon are also displayed as a function of temperature and their behaviours are discussed. It is shown that the caloric curve is sensitive to the proton fraction and to the Coulomb interaction. At T=0 the droplet properties do not depend on the parameterization used. At finite temperature however, the sensitivity appears.

description: Gravitational wave (GW) detectors operating on a long time range can be used for the study of space distribution of sources of GW bursts or to put strong upper limits on the GW signal of a wide class of source candidates. For this purpose we propose here a sidereal time analysis to analyze the output signal of GW detectors. Using the characteristics of some existing detectors, we demonstrate the capability of the sidereal time analysis to give a clear signature of different localizations of GW sources: the Galactic Center, the Galactic Plane, the Supergalactic plane, the Great Attractor. On the contrary, a homogeneous 3D-distribution of GW sources gives a signal without features. In this paper we consider tensor gravitational waves with randomly oriented polarization. We consider GW detectors at fixed positions on the Earth, and a fixed orientation of the antenna.

TYPE LOCALITY. — See above.
GEOGRAPHIC RANGE IN ASIA. — China, Mongolia, Kazakhstan.
CHRONOLOGIC RANGE. — Latest Miocene to early Pliocene.
 Canini not distinct at the specific level from the typical North American species E. davisi, have been reported in the early Pliocene fossil record of China by Tedford & Qiu (1996). These authors report the occurrence of E. davisi in China along with that of another species (E. zhoui Tedford & Qiu, 1996, see later) that has no New World counterpart, suggesting later Miocene differentiation in the genus prior to its appearance in the Asian record (Tedford & Qiu 1996). Chinese specimens attributed to this species include complete skulls (while the North American record does not include complete good skulls). The Chinese material has been used by Tedford & Qiu (1996) to characterize cranial morphology of the species.
 In addition to the material from the Yushe Basin (China), a few other findings referable to E. davisi have been recently reported from earliest Pliocene in Mongolia (Khirgis Nur, upper levels, and Sangin Dalay Nur) and Kazakhstan (Pavlodar) (Sotnikova & Rook 2009) (Fig. 2).
 The occurrence of E. davisi in Pliocene sediments in China and Mongolia extends the geographic and geologic range of this taxon (surviving here until the mid Pliocene, perhaps around 2.5 Ma), with an enormous temporal range of more than 6 Ma, from about 9 to 2.5 Ma (Tedford & Qiu 1996).

description: The generation and detection of maximally-entangled two-particle states, `Bell states,' are crucial tasks in many quantum information protocols such as cryptography and teleportation. Unfortunately, they require strong inter-particle interactions lacking in optics. For this reason, it has not previously been possible to perform complete Bell state determination in optical systems. In this work, we show how a recently developed quantum interference technique for enhancing optical nonlinearities can make efficient Bell-state measurement possible. We also discuss weaknesses of the scheme including why it cannot be used for unconditional quantum teleportation.
