description: In the face of the economic downturn that Nicaragua experienced in 2018 and the need for a recovery, the study provides a comparative analysis of how investments in productive infrastructure in different agri-food sectors would impact on growth and poverty. The analysis is based on scenarios generated through an economy-wide model representing the Nicaraguan economy and its sectors. The model includes financing constraints and the study explores different financing options for the new investments.

Air-sea gas exchange

description: A newly developed laser-induced fluorescence technique to measure high-resolution vertical concentration profiles of the tracer sulfur dioxide above the air-water interface is presented. The concentration profiles can be used to study the transport mechanisms in the air-sided boundary layer at a wavy interface including the gas transfer velocity, turbulent concentration fluctuations, and the partitioning of gas transfer between air and water. The imaging technique was tested in a wind-wave facility under invasion conditions. A proof of principle is presented as well as a first evaluation of the capabilities and uncertainties of the method. In combination with particle imaging velocimetry, this measurement technique will allow for a detailed study of the transport processes across the mass boundary layer.

description: A photoionized gas in thermal equilibrium can display a thermal instability, with 3 or more solutions in the multi-branch region of the S-shape curve giving the temperature versus the radiation-to-gas-pressure ratio. Many studies have been devoted to this curve and to its dependence on different parameters, always in the optically thin case. The purpose of our study is the thermal instability in optically thick, stratified media, in total pressure equilibrium. We have developped a new algorithm to select the hot/cold stable solution, and thereof to compute a fully consistent photoionization model. We have implemented it in the TITAN code and computed a set of models encompassing the range of conditions valid for the Warm Absorber in Active Galactic Nuclei. We have demonstrated that the thermal instability problem is quite different in thin or thick media. In thick media the spectral distribution changes as the radiation progresses inside the ionized gas. This has observational implications in the emitted/absorbed spectra, ionization states, and variability. However impossible to know what solution the plasma will adopt when attaining the multi-solutions regime, we expect the emitted/absorbed spectrum to be intermediate between those resulting from pure cold and hot models. Large spectral fluctuations corresponding to the onset of a cold/hot solution could be observed in timescales of the order of the dynamical time. A strong turbulence implying supersonic velocities should permanently exist in the multi-branch region of thick, stratified, pressure equilibrium media.

description: We analyze the thermal conductivity of ions (equivalent to the conductivity of phonons in crystalline matter) in a neutron star envelope. We calculate the ion/phonon thermal conductivity in a crystal of atomic nuclei using variational formalism and performing momentum-space integration by Monte Carlo method. We take into account phonon-phonon and phonon-electron scattering mechanisms and show that phonon-electron scattering dominates at not too low densities. We extract the ion thermal conductivity in ion liquid or gas from literature. Numerical values of the ion/phonon conductivity are approximated by analytical expressions, valid for T>10^5 K and 10^5 g cm^-3 < ρ< 10^14 g cm^-3. Typical magnetic fields B~10^12 G in neutron star envelopes do not affect this conductivity although they strongly reduce the electron thermal conductivity across the magnetic field. The ion thermal conductivity remains much smaller than the electron conductivity along the magnetic field. However, in the outer neutron star envelope it can be larger than the electron conductivity across the field, that is important for heat transport across magnetic field lines in cooling neutron stars. The ion conductivity can greatly reduce the anisotropy of heat conduction in outer envelopes of magnetized neutron stars.

description: An electron-cooling principle based on Landau quantization is proposed for nanoscale conductor systems. Operation relies on energy-selective electron tunneling into a two-dimensional electron gas in quantizing magnetic fields. This quantum refrigerator provides significant cooling power (~1 nW at a few K for realistic parameters) and offers a unique flexibility thanks to its tunability via the magnetic-field intensity. The available performance is only marginally affected by nonidealities such as disorder or imperfections in the semiconductor. Methods for the implementation of this system and its characterization are discussed.

description: We present multicolor Hubble Space Telescope (HST) WFPC2 broadband observations of the Type Ic SN 1994I obtained approximately 280 days after maximum light. We measure the brightness of the SN and, relying on the detailed spectroscopic database of SN 1994I, we transform the ground-based photometry obtained at early times to the HST photometric system, deriving light curves for the WFPC2 F439W, F555W, F675W, and F814W passbands that extend from 7 days before to 280 days after maximum. We use the multicolor photometry to build a quasi-bolometric light curve of SN 1994I, and compare it with similarly constructed light curves of other supernovae. In doing so, we propose and test a scaling in energy and time that allows for a more meaningful comparison of the exponential tails of different events. Through comparison with models, we find that the late-time light curve of SN 1994I is consistent with that of spherically symmetric ejecta in homologous expansion, for which the ability to trap the Gamma-rays produced by the radioactive decay of 56Co diminishes roughly as the inverse of time squared. We also find that by the time of the HST photometry, the light curve was significantly energized by the annihilation of positrons.

description: With the advancement of high-throughput DNA sequencing technologies, the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) is becoming increasingly accessible even for neglected organisms such as cestodes (Ellegren, 2014). However, before we can unfurl its informational content, the mitogenome must be adequately coded into evidence. For Cestoda taxa, the failure to program their unique genetic code (Nakao et al., 2000) and the poor quality of reference databases is likely to increase the error rate of gene calling in popular multipurpose annotators. Here we provide the first dedicated tool for the annotation of mitogenomes of cestodes, the Cestode Mitogenome Annotator (CMA). Our pipeline has a diminished error rate and is considerably faster compared to similar applications. The pipeline is available as an stand-alone application as well as a web application.

Anglicismes, canadianismes et mots folkloriques dans les dictionnaires Bélise (1979) et Plus (1988) : un aperçu du cheminement du lexique français québécois

description: Our study deals mainly with two Quebec dictionaries: Dictionnaire nord-américain de la langue française which will be given the name the Bélisle (1979) and the Dictionnaire du français plus designated by the Plus (1988). We have concentrated on the words that the Bélisle (1979) accompanies with: 1- "X" designating the "anglicismes"; 2- "C" designating the "canadianismes"; 3- the "Fleur de Lys" designating the "mots folkloriques". Our goal is to see the changes that the Quebec dialect has undergone from the Bélisle (1979) to the Plus (1988) with regard to the three above categories: whether theses words still exist in the latter dictionary or not, and if so, under which of these categories, if any, they fall. In addition, we have consulted other Quebec dictionaries dating from 1880 to present. These consultations helped us determine, to a certain degree, the year an "anglicisme", a "canadianisme" or a "mot folklorique" was recorded in these dictionaries, signaling therefore their usage for the first time in the Quebec dialect. Our thesis is divided into three chapters: the first one deals with the "anglicismes", the second one with the "canadianismes" and the third one with the "mots folkloriques". Each chapter contains data of each three categories obtained from our consultations of the Bélisle (1979), the Plus (1988) and other Quebec dictionaries.

Year: 2021

description: UG is a generic framework to parallelize branch-and-bound based solvers (e.g., MIP, MINLP, ExactIP) in a distributed or shared memory computing environment. It exploits the powerful performance of state-of-the-art "base solvers", such as SCIP, CPLEX, etc. without the need for base solver parallelization. UG framework, ParaSCIP(ug[SCIP,MPI]) and FiberSCIP (ug[SCIP,Pthreads]) are available as a beta version. For MIP solving, ParaSCIP and FiberSCIP are well debugged and should be stable. For MINLP solving, they are relatively stable, but not as thoroughly debugged. This release version should handle branch-and-cut approaches where subproblems are defined by variable bounds and also by constrains for ug[SCIP,*] ParaSCIP and FiberSCIP). Therefore, problem classes other than MIP or MINLP can be handled, but they have not been tested yet. v0.9.1: Update orbitope cip files.

description: A key challenge for modern Bayesian statistics is how to perform scalable inference of posterior distributions. To address this challenge, variational Bayes (VB) methods have emerged as a popular alternative to the classical Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods. VB methods tend to be faster while achieving comparable predictive performance. However, there are few theoretical results around VB. In this article, we establish frequentist consistency and asymptotic normality of VB methods. Specifically, we connect VB methods to point estimates based on variational approximations, called frequentist variational approximations, and we use the connection to prove a variational Bernstein–von Mises theorem. The theorem leverages the theoretical characterizations of frequentist variational approximations to understand asymptotic properties of VB. In summary, we prove that (1) the VB posterior converges to the Kullback–Leibler (KL) minimizer of a normal distribution, centered at the truth and (2) the corresponding variational expectation of the parameter is consistent and asymptotically normal. As applications of the theorem, we derive asymptotic properties of VB posteriors in Bayesian mixture models, Bayesian generalized linear mixed models, and Bayesian stochastic block models. We conduct a simulation study to illustrate these theoretical results. Supplementary materials for this article are available online.

description: We propose a mathematical derivation of Brinkman's force for a cloud of particles immersed in an incompressible fluid. Our starting point is the Stokes or steady Navier-Stokes equations set in a bounded domain with the disjoint union of N balls of radius 1/N removed, and with a no-slip boundary condition for the fluid at the surface of each ball. The large N limit of the fluid velocity field is governed by the same (Navier-)Stokes equations in the whole domain, with an additional term (Brinkman's force) that is (minus) the total drag force exerted by the fluid on the particle system. This can be seen as a generalization of Allaire's result in [Arch. Rational Mech. Analysis 113 (1991), 209-259] who treated the case of motionless, periodically distributed balls. Our proof is based on slightly simpler, though similar homogenization techniques, except that we avoid the periodicity assumption and use instead the phase-space empirical measure for the particle system. Similar equations are used for describing the fluid phase in various models for sprays.

A behavioral and anatomical examination of the intramodal and intramodal effects of early stimulation history and selective posterior cortical lesions in the rat
Creators: name: Buhrmann, Kristin
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The aim of this study was to investigate the intra- and intermodal impact of different kinds of early sensory experience on the development of specific neural/perceptual systems. The manipulations of the rats' early experience involved a combination of early binocular deprivation through dark-rearing, somatosensory restriction through cauterization of mystacial vibrissae, and multimodal enrichment through rearing in a complex environment. Specific lesions to somatosensory (Parl) and visual (Oc2M) cortex in differentially reared animals were included in an attempt to gain further insight into the plasticity surrounding manipulations of early stimulation history. Five tasks were used to assess these effects of early rearing condition in combination with later cortical lesions. Behavioral assessment focused on the ability of the animals to encode, abstract, and remember specific relationships between stimuli within the deprived modality itself, their ability to do so with information presented in other modalities, and on the basic species specific behavior. The only effect found was a main effect for rearing condition. Basically, complex-reared rats were more competent on several of the behavioral tasks than were dark-reared rats. However, this result provided little behavioral support for ideas of modality interdependence. Dendritic proliferation is considered to be a general mechanism supporting behavioral change. The subsequent neuroanatomical assessment focused on dendritic branching of neurons in specific cortical areas thought to be most affected by early environmental manipulations. Animals that were raised in a complex environment, but had experienced early tactile restriction through cauterization of vibrissae, showed significantly more dendritic branching than animals from all other rearing conditions in all cortical areas measured. This finding is consistent with ideas of both intra- and intermodal compensation following damage to an early developing modality, as well as behavioral demand acting as a significant factor in determining the impact of early somatosensory restriction. It is reasonable to assume that anatomical changes should be manifested behaviorally. Suggestions for smaller, more restricted studies, that would be more effective in describing the behavioral impact of early manipulations of the environment, were outlined.

description: Despite the technological progress applied in recent years to the various production phases of Mediterranean Marine Fish Farming (MMFF), from reproduction to nutrition, several welfare and health issues of farmed fish still represent relevant limiting factors for sustainable production. In particular, the attempts to increase and diversify MMFF productions have been often accompanied by the emergence or reoccurrence of transmissible diseases strongly conditioned by management and environmental factors with consequent significant economic losses and repercussions on fish welfare and health parameters. The experience gained in the attempt to control diseases has amply demonstrated that the treatment (when applicable) is often not conclusive, highlighting that the “disease event” is the result of many interacting factors linked to the pathogen, the host and the environment (intended as production system and surrounding ecosystem), which underly the occurrence of disease and influence morbidity and mortality rates. It is evident that an integrated approach is required to prevent and control diseases of farmed fish, which means adopting a holistic view to take into consideration the integrated manner all the different factors involved in the development of a disease and in fish health management. Based on this concept, the project PerformFISH has developed in WP3 an integrated network of research activities aiming to provide the Mediterranean finfish aquaculture with effective tools to prevent, mitigate and control the most relevant diseases of European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) and gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata).

description: An integrated luminosity of 410 pb^(-1), corresponding to ~ 17 million of eta events, has been analyzed to measure the eta mass using the decay eta to gamma gamma. The measurement is insensitive to the calorimeter energy calibration and the systematic error on the measurement is dominated by the uniformity of the detector response. As a cross check of the method the pi0 mass from the decay phi to pi0 gamma, pi0 to gamma gamma has been measured and it is in agreement with the most accurate previous determinations. The result obtained is m(eta) = 547.873 +/- 0.007 (stat.) +/- 0.031 (syst.) MeV, that is today best measurement of the eta mass.

description: Strongly correlated systems far from equilibrium can exhibit scaling solutions with a dynamically generated weak coupling. We show this by investigating isolated systems described by relativistic quantum field theories for initial conditions leading to nonequilibrium instabilities, such as parametric resonance or spinodal decomposition. The non-thermal fixed points prevent fast thermalization if classical-statistical fluctuations dominate over quantum fluctuations. We comment on the possible significance of these results for the heating of the early universe after inflation and the question of fast thermalization in heavy-ion collision experiments.

description: The adaptive charging algorithms of today divide the available charging capacity of a charging site between the electric vehicles without knowing how much current each vehicle draws in reality. Thus, they are not able to detect deviations between the current set point at the charging station and the real charging current. This leads to a situation where the charging capacity of the charging site is not used optimally. This paper presents an algorithm including a novel feature, Expected Characteristic Expectation and tested under realistic circumstances. It is demonstrated that the proposed algorithm enhances the adaptability of the charging site, increasing the efficiency of the used network capacity up to about 2 kWh per charging point per day in comparison with the previous benchmark algorithm. The algorithm is able to increase the average monetary benefits of the charging operators by up to around 5.8%, that is 0.6 € per charging point per day. No input, such as departure time, is required from the user. The proposed algorithm has been tested with real electric vehicles and charging stations and is compatible with the IEC 61851 charging standard. The charging algorithm is applicable in practice as it is described in this paper.

description: We discuss how developments in physics often imply in the need that spacetime acquires an increasingly richer and complex structure. General Relativity was the first theory to show us the way to connect space and time with the physical world. Since then, scrutinizing the ways spacetime might exist is, in a way, the very essence of physics. Physics has thus given substance to the pioneering work of scores of brilliant mathematicians who speculated on the geometry and topology of spaces.

Entropic criterion for model selection

description: Model or variable selection is usually achieved through ranking models according to the increasing order of preference. One of methods is applying Kullback-Leibler distance or relative entropy as a selection criterion. Yet that will raise two questions, why uses this criterion and are there any other criteria. Besides, conventional approaches require a reference prior, which is usually difficult to get. Following the logic of inductive inference proposed by Caticha, we show relative entropy to be a unique criterion, which requires no prior information and can be applied to different fields. We examine this criterion by considering a physical problem, simple fluids, and results are promising.

description: Background paper for The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2020 – Price and affordability are key barriers to accessing sufficient, safe, nutritious food to meet dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life. In this study, the least-cost items available in local markets are identified to estimate the cost of three diet types: energy sufficient, nutrient adequate, and healthy (meeting food-based dietary guidelines). For price and availability the World Bank’s International Comparison Program (ICP) dataset is used, which provides food prices in local currency units (LCU) for 680 foods and non-alcoholic beverages in 170 countries in 2017. In addition, country case studies are developed with national food price datasets in United Republic of Tanzania, Malawi, Ethiopia, Ghana and Myanmar. The findings reveal that healthy diets by any definition are far more expensive than the entire international poverty line of USD 1.90, let alone the upper bound portion of the poverty line that can credibly be reserved for food of USD 1.20. The cost of healthy diets exceeds food expenditures in most countries in the Global South. The findings suggest that nutrition education and behaviour change alone will not substantially improve dietary consumption where nutrient adequate and healthy diets, even in their cheapest form, are unaffordable for the majority of the poor. To make healthy diets cheaper, agricultural policies, research, and development need to shift toward a diversity of nutritious foods. This publication was developed as a background study for "The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2020" (available at https://doi.org/10.4060/ca9692en).

Bose-Einstein condensation in the pseudogap phase of cuprate superconductors

description: We have identified the unscreened Froehlich electron-phonon interaction (EPI) as the most essential for pairing in cuprate superconductors as now confirmed by isotope substitution, recent angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES), and some other experiments. Low-energy physics is that of mobile lattice polarons and bipolarons in the strong EPI regime. Many experimental observations have been predicted or explained in the framework of our "Coulomb-Froehlich" model, which fully takes into account the long-range Coulomb repulsion and the Froehlich EPI. They include pseudo-gaps, unusual isotope effects and upper critical fields, the normal state Nernst effect, diamagnetism, the Hall-Lorenz numbers, and a giant proximity effect (GPE). These experiments along with the parameter-free estimates of the Fermi energy and the critical temperature support a genuine Bose-Einstein condensation of real-space lattice bipolarons in the pseudogap phase of cuprates. On the contrary the phase fluctuation (or vortex) scenario is incompatible with the insulating-like in-plane resistivity and the magnetic-field dependence of orbital magnetization in the resistive state of underdoped cuprates.

description: This paper presents new J and Ks data obtained from observations conducted at the ESO 3.5m New Technology Telescope using the SOFI camera. These data were taken as part of the ESO Imaging Survey Deep Public Survey (DPS) and significantly extend the earlier optical/infrared EIS-DEEP survey presented in a previous paper. The DPS-IR survey comprises two observing strategies: shallow Ks observations providing nearly full coverage of pointings with complementary multi-band optical data and deeper J and Ks observations of the central parts of these fields. The DPS-IR survey provides a coverage of roughly 2.1 square degrees in Ks with 0.63 square degrees to fainter magnitudes and also covered in J, over three independent regions of the sky. The goal of the present paper is to describe the observations, the data reduction procedures, and to present the final survey products. The astrometric solution with an estimated accuracy of <0.15" is based on the USNO catalog. The final stacked images presented here number 89 and 272, in J and Ks, respectively, the latter reflecting the larger surveyed area. The J and Ks images were taken with a median seeing of 0.77" and 0.8". The images reach a median 5sigma limiting magnitude of J_AB~23.06 in an aperture of 2", while the corresponding limiting magnitude in Ks_AB is ~21.41 and ~22.16 mag for the shallow and deep strategies. Overall, the observed limiting magnitudes are consistent with those originally proposed. The quality of the data has been assessed by comparing the measured magnitude of sources at the bright end directly with those reported by the 2MASS survey and at the faint end by comparing the counts of galaxies and stars with those of other surveys to comparable depth and to model predictions. The final science-grade catalogs and images are available at CDS.

How unexpected features capture visual attention and the gaze
Creators: name: Ernst, Daniel
Publisher: name: Universität Bielefeld
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: 150

description: In visual attention research, a current topic of debate is to what extent visual attention is biased by bottom-up factors (e.g., stimulus saliency), and by top-down factors (e.g., goal contingent orienting). The present work centers on the specific factor of expectation discrepancy, which likewise attracts attention, but does not fit clearly into either of the two categories. The effect of expectation discrepancy is usually tested by first familiarizing participants with a number of search displays containing color homogeneous stimuli, such that they expect the continuous presentation of the stimulus features also for the following trials. If then a single stimulus with a novel color (a “singleton”) is shown unannounced and for the first time in a surprise trial, it captures visual attention and the gaze. Over the course of three studies, the present work demonstrates that a novel feature must not necessarily be presented by means of a novel singleton to attract attention; that is, feature novelty alone is sufficient. The first study shows that a task irrelevant color singleton that was shown in every search trial strongly captured the gaze if it was presented unannounced with a novel color. Furthermore, the study tested an alternative explanation, being that surprise solely interrupts attentional control settings, which causes a reorientation towards perceptual saliency. However, results showed that such an effect does not contribute substantially to surprise capture. The second study yields evidence that surprise capture of the gaze by a novel color covaries with expectation narrowness of the familiar color. It was assumed that an expectation about a color becomes narrower with lower previously perceived color variability and with an increasing number of sampling occasions. Thus, expectation discrepancy of a novel singleton color should be high with a narrow color expectation and low with a broad color expectation. Experiments using a similar paradigm as the first study demonstrated that higher color variability of an irrelevant singleton and fewer familiarization trials reduced surprise capture of the gaze as an indicator for expectation discrepancy. An approach to mathematically model the emergence of an expectation was proposed. The third study shows that novelty can compete with saliency for attentional prioritization. More precisely, it was demonstrated that gaze capture of a novel color singleton in a surprise trial is attenuated if the remaining non-singletons likewise have a novel color, which in turn receive increased attention. The data pattern can be predicted by assuming novelty as an additional source of activation in a noisy priority map for visual attention. Together, the three studies contribute to a more precise specification of the mechanisms that link expectation discrepancy with visual attention.
