description: We study a new s-process path through an isomer of $^{186}$Re to improve a $^{187}$Re-$^{187}$Os nucleo-cosmochronometer. The nucleus $^{187}$Re is produced by this new path of $^{185}$Re(n,$γ$)$^{186}$Re$^m$(n,$γ$)$^{187}$Re. We measure a ratio of neutron capture cross-sections for the $^{185}$Re(n,$γ$)$^{186}$Re$^m$ and $^{185}$Re(n,$γ$)$^{186}$Re$^{gs}$ reactions at thermal neutron energy because the ratio with the experimental uncertainty has not been reported. Using an activation method with reactor neutrons, we obtain the ratio of $R_{th}$ = 0.54 $\pm$ 0.11%. From this ratio we estimate the ratio of Maxwellian averaged cross sections in a typical s-process environment at $kT$ = 30 keV with a help of the temperature dependence given in a statistical-model calculation because the energy dependence of the isomer/ground ratio is smaller than the absolute neutron capture cross-section. The ratio at $kT$=30 keV is estimated to be $R_{st}$ = 1.3 $\pm$ 0.8%. We calculate the s-process contribution from the new path in a steady-flow model. The additional abundance of $^{187}$Re through this path is estimated to be $N_{s}$ = 0.56 $\pm$ 0.35% relative to the abundance of $^{186}$Os. This additional increase of $^{187}$Re does not make any remarkable change in the $^{187}$Re-$^{187}$Os chronometer for an age estimate of a primitive meteorite, which has recently been found to be affected strongly by a single supernova r-process episode.

description: The FSMA appears to be a major undertaking with a very large responsibility placed on the FDA. It would seem that bottlenecks to exporting are bound to appear which will be very frustrating for Canadian firms. It is important for Canadian firms and Canadian policy makers to work hard to ensure that temporary bottlenecks do not become permanent inhibitors of trade. The Canadian government needs to understand industry concerns and use any mechanisms – including those in the NAFTA – to initiate consultations with the US. Given the likely lags in implementation, North American food markets are likely to exhibit considerable disequilibrium over the near term. Trade flows will be affected. As the implementation programs of the FSMA become more transparent, more sophisticated analysis into its effect on Canadian competitiveness in the US market can be undertaken.
Non-Equilibrium in Adsorbed Polymer Layers

description: High molecular weight polymer solutions have a powerful tendency to deposit adsorbed layers when exposed to even mildly attractive surfaces. The equilibrium properties of these dense interfacial layers have been extensively studied theoretically. A large body of experimental evidence, however, indicates that non-equilibrium effects are dominant whenever monomer-surface sticking energies are somewhat larger than kT, a common case. Polymer relaxation kinetics within the layer are then severely retarded, leading to non-equilibrium layers whose structure and dynamics depend on adsorption kinetics and layer ageing. Here we review experimental and theoretical work exploring these non-equilibrium effects, with emphasis on recent developments. The discussion addresses the structure and dynamics in non-equilibrium polymer layers adsorbed from dilute polymer solutions and from polymer melts and more concentrated solutions. Two distinct classes of behaviour arise, depending on whether physisorption or chemisorption is involved. A given adsorbed chain belonging to the layer has a certain fraction of its monomers bound to the surface, f, and the remainder belonging to loops making bulk excursions. A natural classification scheme for layers adsorbed from solution is the distribution of single chain f values, P(f), which may hold the key to quantifying the degree of irreversibility in adsorbed polymer layers. Here we calculate P(f) for equilibrium layers; we find its form is very different to the theoretical P(f) for non-equilibrium layers which are predicted to have infinitely many statistical classes of chain. Experimental measurements of P(f) are compared to these theoretical predictions.

description: Moving existing legacy systems to cloud platforms is a difficult and high cost process that may involve technical and non-technical resources and challenges. There is evidence that the lack of understanding and preparedness of cloud computing migration underpin many migration failures in achieving organisations goals. The main goal of this article is to identify the most important challenging activities for moving legacy systems to cloud platforms from a perspective of reengineering process. Through a combination of a bottom-up and a top-down analysis, a set of common activities is derived from the extant cloud computing literature. These are expressed as a model and are validated using a population of 104 shortlisted and randomly selected domain experts from different industry sectors. We used a Web-based survey questionnaire to collect data and analysed them using SPSS Sample T-Test. The results of this study highlight the most important and critical challenges that should be addressed by various roles within a legacy to cloud migration endeavour. The study provides an overall understanding of this process including common occurring activities, concerns and recommendations. In addition, the findings of this study constitute a practical guide to conduct this transition. This guide is platform agnostic and independent from any specific migration scenario, cloud platform, or an application domain. Keywords.

Community-based natural resource management program (CBNRM) in Botswana : myth or reality? : stories of participation, community and governance from the Khwai Development Trust
Creators: name: Chau, Lilian Lik
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: In the spring of 2002, the author traveled to Botswana as a volunteer Community Development Assistant with the Khwai Development Trust in their activities with the national CBNRM program. During the next seven months of fieldwork, Khwai continued to experience many conflicts both internally and externally. Many of the problems were blamed on the lack of experience and capacities of villagers to manage financial and organizational resources of the Trust. However, data gathered from interviews, observations and literature reviews proposed a different theory. They pointed to the shortcomings of the fundamental assumptions used to develop policies and institutions in the CBNRM program. Rather than the lack of capacity, the thesis argues that these assumptions or "myths" have contributed greatly to the conflicts and tensions facing project villages and other CBNRM stakeholders. Using the experience of the Khwai Development Trust as a case study, the research illustrates how CBNRM assumptions of participation and community have contradicted and ignored existing realities of unequal social relationships, hierarchies of power, and local aspirations for CBNRM in rural villages. Hence policies and institutional structures developed out of these assumptions fail to consider the potentials for conflicts, or to develop the mechanisms to address existing tensions. This was evident when an institutional analysis of the program and community-based organizations identified major gaps in the ability of CBNRM to promote robust local organizations and effective rules and regulations for natural resource management. In order for CBNRM principles to become a reality, program policies and institutions should be guided not by myths, but by the knowledge and experience which is truly community-based.
Coupled mode theory for photonic band-gap inhibition of spatial instabilities

Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Pattern Formation and Solitons (nlin.PS)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We study the inhibition of pattern formation in nonlinear optical systems using intracavity photonic crystals. We consider mean field models for single and doubly degenerate optical parametric oscillators. Analytical expressions for the new (higher) modulational thresholds and the size of the ''band-gap`` as function of the system and photonic crystal parameters are obtained via a coupled-mode theory. Then, by means of a nonlinear analysis, we derive amplitude equations for the unstable modes and find the stationary solutions above threshold. The form of the unstable mode is different in the lower and upper part of the bandgap. In each part there is bistability between two spatially shifted patterns. In large systems stable wall defects between the two solutions are formed and we provide analytical expressions for their shape. The analytical results are favorably compared with results obtained from the full system equations. Inhibition of pattern formation can be used to spatially control signal generation in the transverse plane.

description: We argue that to support agriculture–environmental policy decision making, stakeholders need ‘quantitative back-of-the-envelope’ analysis that is timely and sufficiently accurate to make informed decisions. We apply this concept to the analysis of the supply of ecosystem services from agriculture. We present a spatially explicit production model and show how it can be used to derive the supply of ecosystem services in a region. This model shows that the supply of ecosystem services can be derived from the spatial distribution of opportunity cost of providing those services. We then show how this conceptual model can be used to develop a minimum-data (MD) approach to the analysis of the supply of ecosystem services from agriculture that can be implemented with the kinds of secondary data that are available in most parts of the world. We apply the MD approach to simulate the supply of carbon that could be sequestered in agricultural soils in the dryland grain-producing region of Montana. We find that the supply curve derived from the MD approach can approximate the supply curve obtained from a more elaborate model based on site-specific data, and can do so with sufficient accuracy for policy analysis.

It is shown by numerical and analytic studies that the mean-field is not realized in the many-fermion system when quantum fluctuations coming from two-body residual interaction and quadrupole deformation are larger than an energy difference between two avoided crossing orbits. An analytic condition indicating a limitation of the mean-field concept is derived for the first time.

description: Expropriations of foreign direct investment in developing countries are typically blamed on political and economic crises in those countries. Developing a new database of expropriations in the minerals sectors of developing country exporters, I show that expropriations were correlated with mineral price booms and that democratic governments were more likely to expropriate. No link is found between expropriations and political or economic crises, except at independence. A better explanation of expropriation would be opportunistic behaviour by host governments when profits of investments are high. In two developed countries, Australia and Canada, expropriations are also found to occur during price booms.

The continuity of the wave function and of its derivative at the interface is satisfied when including evanescent-wave terms. We analyze solutions on truncated spaces and compare them with previously obtained approximate solutions. The findings of this work have applications in the problem of the propagation of particles in the presence of a bubble wall in the midsts of an electroweak phase transition, where the two regions separated by the wall are influenced by different (hyper)magnetic field strengths.

description: Moving mission-oriented enterprise applications to cloud environments is a major IT strategic task and requires a systematic approach. The foci of this paper are to review and examine existing cloud migration approaches from the process models perspective. To this aim, an evaluation framework is proposed and used to analyse and compare existing approaches for highlighting their features, similarities, and key differences. The survey distills the state of the art in cloud migration research and makes a rich inventory of important activities, recommendations, techniques, and concerns that are commonly involved in the migration process in one place. This enables academia and practitioners in the cloud computing community to get an overarching view of the cloud migration process. Furthermore, the survey identifies a number challenges that have not been yet addressed by existing approaches, developing opportunities for further research endeavors.

description: We re-examine the status of the weak value of a quantum mechanical observable as an objective physical concept, addressing its physical interpretation and general domain of applicability. We show that the weak value can be regarded as a \emph{definite} mechanical effect on a measuring probe specifically designed to minimize the back-reaction on the measured system. We then present a new framework for general measurement conditions (where the back-reaction on the system may not be negligible) in which the measurement outcomes can still be interpreted as \emph{quantum averages of weak values}. We show that in the classical limit, there is a direct correspondence between quantum averages of weak values and posterior expectation values of classical dynamical properties according to the classical inference framework.

The power of two: squaring off with Australia’s large supermarket chains

description: The level and nature of competition in supermarket retailing in Australia has been hotly debated as a policy issue in recent times. The creeping acquisitions of smaller groups by Coles and Woolworths have led to several investigations amid claims that consumers will be disadvantaged by the growth of the two big chains. Yet little convincing evidence has been found to support these assertions. Although on occasions the big two may have used their power vertically to squeeze suppliers, consumers have experienced highly competitive retail markets. In this paper, it is argued that it is market conduct, not structure, that should be the prime focus of regulatory and policy interest, and that recent corporate activity may lead to a third force in supermarket retailing in Australia that could not only ensure continued competitiveness in the industry, but could also help to constrain the successful exercise of vertical market power by the two big chains. Accordingly, it is argued that intervention as a general policy in supermarket retailing would not be socially efficient, at least not until a wide range of objective and quantitative assessments have been carried out on the operation of the supermarket sector.

description: Ballistic electrons confined to a billiard and subject to spin--orbit coupling of the Rashba type are investigated, using both approximate semiclassical and exact quantum--mechanical methods. We focus on the low--energy part of the spectrum that has negative eigenvalues. When the spin precession length is smaller than the radius of the billiard, the low--lying energy eigenvalues turn out to be well described semiclassically. Corresponding eigenspinors are found to have a finite spin polarization in the direction perpendicular to the billiard plane.

description: We investigate the optimal distribution of quantum information over multipartite systems in asymmetric settings. We introduce cloning transformations that take $N$ identical replicas of a pure state in any dimension as input, and yield a collection of clones with non-identical fidelities. As an example, if the clones are partitioned into a set of $M_A$ clones with fidelity $F^A$ and another set of $M_B$ clones with fidelity $F^B$, the trade-off between these fidelities is analyzed, and particular cases of optimal $N \to M_A+M_B$ cloning machines are exhibited. We also present an optimal $1 \to 1+1+1$ cloning machine, which is the first known example of a tripartite fully asymmetric cloner. Finally, it is shown how these cloning machines can be optically realized.

description: This paper reviews the basic components of antitrust analysis for the supermarket industry, including definition of product and geographic markets and the measurement of market power. The analysis of prices and profits in a market structure context remains important, especially in countries such as Australia with very high supermarket concentration. Firm and brand level New Empirical Industrial Organisation models of demand and oligopoly pricing also provide insights for evaluating antitrust claims. Recent research on vertical pricing games and price transmission expand the analysis to market channel pricing issues, including coalescing power by supermarkets and food manufacturers. The issues and approaches explained in this paper are relevant for policy-orientated research on supermarkets worldwide, including Australia.

Even if this is possible, whether it is a real concern depends on whether provision exists to constrain the exercise of that power through market responses, such as entry, or through regulatory provisions, such as those contained in the Trade Practices Act.

description: ‘Clean and green’ has been used as a marketing tool by Australian governments to promote agricultural products overseas. But how valid are these claims? Is the ‘clean and green’ image campaign effective? And should government be involved? We conclude that Australia may have had a ‘clean and green’ image in some markets, but in the future, concrete proof of environmental and quality credentials will be required to satisfy increasingly better-informed and more demanding customers. We argue that governments cannot, and should not, continue to promote Australian products based on an undefined ‘clean and green’ image. Rather, more resources should be directed to the development, promotion and wide adoption of integrated, credible and well-defined environmental management and quality assurance systems if Australia is to compete effectively in export markets, especially in the longer term.

description: If the voids that we see today in the distribution of galaxies existed at recombination, they will leave an imprint on the cosmic microwave background (CMB). On the other hand, if these voids formed much later, their effect on the CMB will be negligible and will not be observed with the current generation of experiments. In this paper presented at the 2004 Annual Scientific Meeting of the Astronomical Society of Australia, we discuss our ongoing investigations into voids of primordial origin. We show that if voids in the cold dark matter distribution existed at the epoch of decoupling, they could contribute significantly to the apparent rise in CMB power on small scales detected by the Cosmic Background Imager (CBI) Deep Field. Here we present our improved method for predicting the effects of primordial voids on the CMB in which we treat a void as an external source in the cold dark matter (CDM) distribution employing a Boltzmann solver. Our improved predictions include the effects of a cosmological constant (Lambda) and acoustic oscillations generated by voids at early times. We find that models with relatively large voids on the last scattering surface predict too much CMB power in an Einstein--de Sitter background cosmology but could be consistent with the current CMB observations in a Lambda-CDM universe.

description: The status of Compton scattering by the nucleon at energies of the first and second resonance is summarized. In addition to a general test of dispersion theories and a precise determination of polarizabilities, the validities of four fundamental sum rules are explored. {\it Recommended} averages of experimental values for the electromagnetic polarizabilities and spin-polarizabilities of the nucleon are determined: $α_p=12.0\pm 0.6$, $β_p=1.9\mp 0.6$, $α_n= 12.5 \pm 1.7$, $β_n= 2.7 \mp 1.8$ (unit $10^{-4}$fm$^3$), $γ^{(p)}_π= -38.7 \pm 1.8$, $γ^{(n)}_π= 58.6 \pm 4.0$ (unit $10^{-4}$fm$^4$).

description: Цель – сравнить эффективность и безопасность эндовенозной лазерной облитерации и радиочастотной облитерации, а также популярность обоих методов на основе опроса практикующих флебологов. Материал и методы. Проведен опрос 235 респондентов, членов Ассоциации флебологов России, представлены результаты обработки полученных данных с использованием описательных статистик. Результаты. Установлено, что эндовенозная лазерная коагуляция является наиболее предпочтительным методом для 54,2 % специалистов из 177 человек, ответивших на этот вопрос. При этом 19,4 % из них выполняют и радиочастотную, и эндовенозную лазерную облитерацию. На детерминированные осложнения, сопровождающие эндовенозную лазерную облитерацию, такие как пигментация и нейропатия, указали 53,8 и 42,7 % специалистов из этого же числа, а на самые частые из стохастических осложнений – тромбофлебит и тромбоз глубоких вен – 33,3 и 22,2 % соответственно. Эндовенозная лазерная облитерация, по сравнению с радиочастотной облитерацией, является более предпочтительным методом для практикующих специалистов, при этом оба метода принципиально не отличаются по эффективности и безопасности.
description: The study aims to compare the efficacy and safety of endovenous laser ablation and radiofrequency ablation, as well as preferences for use of each method based on the survey of phlebologists. Material and methods. The survey of 235 respondents, members of Russian Phlebologists Association, has been carried out. The results of obtained data processed with descriptive statistics are presented. Results. It was found that endovenous laser ablation is the most preferable method for 54.2 % out of 177 interviewed. At the same time, 19.4 % of interviewed use both radiofrequency ablation and endovenous laser ablation. Deterministic complications associated with endovenous laser ablation, such as pigmentation and neuropathy, were reported by 33.3 and 22.2 % of interviewed, accordingly. The most frequent stochastic complications, thrombophlebitis and deep vein thrombosis, were reported by 33.3 and 22.2 % of interviewed, accordingly. Compared to radiofrequency ablation, endovenous laser ablation is a more preferable method for phlebologists. At the same time, both methods are quite similar in efficacy and safety.

description: The impacts of maintaining increasing rates of Mexican chicken meat imports from the United States on United States grain sorghum price and Mexican GS imports from the United States were modeled using a non-spatial, partial equilibrium, econometric, and simulation international trade model. Twenty five equations were simultaneously estimated and validated as a system using three stages least squares. A 9-year baseline was estimated under existing projections and the impacts of the increasing rates of Mexican chicken meat imports from the United States were simulated and compared with the baseline.
Effects of shear thinning viscosity and viscoelastic stresses on flagellated bacteria motility

description: The behavior of flagellated bacteria swimming in non-Newtonian media remains an area with contradictory and conflicting results. We report on the behavior of wild-type and smooth-swimming E. coli in Newtonian, shear thinning and viscoelastic media, measuring their trajectories and swimming speed using a three dimensional real-time tracking microscope. We conclude that the speed enhancement in Methocel solution at higher concentration is due to shear-thinning and an analytical model is used to support our experimental result. We argue that shear-induced normal stresses reduce the wobbling behavior during cell swimming but do not significantly affect swimming speed. However, the normal stresses play an important role in decreasing the flagellar bundling time which changes the swimming speed distribution. A dimensionless number, the "Strangulation number" (Str) is proposed and used to characterize this effect.

description: Lines from HC3N and isotopic substituted species in ground and vibrationally excited states produce crowded millimeter and submillimeter wave spectra in the C-rich protoplanetary nebula CRL618. The complete sequence of HC3N rotational lines from J=9-8 to J=30-29 has been observed with the IRAM 30m telescope toward this object. Lines from a total of 15 different vibrational states (including the fundamental), with energies up to 1100 cm^-1, have been detected for the main HC3N isotopomer. In addition, the CSO telescope has been used to complement this study in the range J=31-30 to J=39-38, with detections in five of these states, all of them below 700 cm^-1. Vibrationally excited HC3N rotational lines exhibit P-Cygni profiles at 3 mm, evolving to pure emission lineshapes at shorter wavelengths. This evolution of the line profile shows little dependence on the vibrational state from which they rotational lines arise. The absorption features are formed against the continuum emission, which has been successfully characterized in this work due to the large frequency coverage. The HC3N column density in front of the the continuum source has been determined by comparing the output of an array of models to the data. The best fits are obtained for column densities in the range 2.0-3.5 10$^17 cm^-2, consistent with previous estimates from ISO data, and TK in the range 250 to 275 K, in very good agreement with estimates made from the same ISO data.
