description: Lensless microscopy with coherent or partially coherent light sources is a well known imaging technique, commonly referred as digital in-line holographic microscopy. In the established methods, both the spatial and temporal coherence of light play a crucial role in determining the resolution of reconstructed object. We report lensless microscopy with a spatially extended white LED, a light source of low spatial and very low temporal coherence. The wave-field propagation between two parallel planes can be obtained using a convolution operation, where the convolution kernel depends on the object-sensor distance and the characteristics of the light source. For a light source of unknown characteristics, this kernel is an unknown function. In the proposed reconstruction method, we decompose an unknown convolution kernel of very large size (128 X 128) into a small unknown light-source-specific kernel (size 9 X 9) and a known light-source-independent kernel (size 128 X 128). This drastically reduces the number of parameters to be estimated at the system identification step, which has been performed here by one time imaging of the known microscopic objects. Final unknown object estimation has been performed using the upper-bound constrained deconvolution. A lateral resolution of ~1-2 micrometer has been demonstrated.

description: In 1992, Americans spent for food $280 billion in focxi stores and another $183 billion in focxiservice establishments. Total real food expenditures, adjusted for inflation, grew 52 percent between 1970 and 1990. However, food sales are expected to grow more slowly during the 1990's and into the next century. Total real food spending is projected to grow only 31.1 percent between 1990 and 2010, mostly due to slowing overall population growth. Of this amount, spending for food at home is expected to grow 24.2 percent between 1990 and 2010, and expenditures on food away from home would grow 37.4 percent. While demographic changes have some impact, future per capita food spending will hinge on the growth in personal income and the aging of the U.S. population. These spending projections are based on combined estimated differences in per capita food spending by demographic groups, along with projected changes in those groups. Included are changes in the age distribution of Americans, regional migration, racial mix, as well as income growth (see box). The resulting changes in per capita food spending are combined with total population growth to assess the implications for future national food spending patterns.
On the lifetime of metastable states in self-gravitating systems

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We discuss the physical basis of the statistical mechanics of self-gravitating systems. We show the correspondance between statistical mechanics methods based on the evaluation of the density of states and partition function and thermodynamical methods based on the maximization of a thermodynamical potential (entropy or free energy). We address the question of the thermodynamic limit of self-gravitating systems, the justification of the mean-field approximation, the validity of the saddle point approximation near the transition point, the lifetime of metastable states and the fluctuations in isothermal spheres. In particular, we emphasize the tremendously long lifetime of metastable states of self-gravitating systems which increases exponentially with the number of particles N except in the vicinity of the critical point. More specifically, using an adaptation of the Kramers formula justified by a kinetic theory, we show that the lifetime of a metastable state scales as e^{N Delta s} in microcanonical ensemble and e^{N Delta j} in canonical ensemble, where Delta s and Delta j are the barriers of entropy and free energy j=s-beta epsilon (per particle) respectively. The physical caloric curve must take these metastable states (local entropy maxima) into account. As a result, it becomes multi-valued and leads to microcanonical phase transitions and ``dinosaur's necks''(Chavanis 2002b, Chavanis & Rieutord 2003). The consideration of metastable states answers the critics raised by D.H.E. Gross [cond-mat/0307535; cond-mat/0403582].

description: We study D and c optimal designs for the contingent response models of Li, Durham and Flournoy [LDF95]. In the contingent response model there are two types of failure. We call one failure type toxicity and the other disease failure. No toxicity and no disease failure is a success or cure. We assume disease failures are contingent on toxicity in that they can only be observed in the absence of toxicity. We also assume the probability of toxicity increases with the dose, and the probability of disease failure given no toxicity decreases with dose. Interest is in finding c-optimal designs for estimating the dose that maximizes the cure probability.

description: We present the ZEN (z equals nine) survey: a deep, narrow J-band search for proto-galactic Lya emission at redshifts z=9. In the first phase of the survey, dubbed ZEN1, we combine an exceptionally deep image of the Hubble Deep Field South, obtained using a narrow band filter centred on the wavelength 1.187 microns, with existing deep, broad band images covering optical to near infrared wavelengths. Candidate z=9 Lya-emitting galaxies display a significant narrow band excess relative to the Js-band that are undetected at optical wavelengths. We detect no sources consistent with this criterion to the 90% point source flux limit of the NB image, F_NB = 3.28e-18 ergs/s/cm2. The survey selection function indicates that we have sampled a volume of approximately 340 h^{-3} Mpc3 to a Lya emission luminosity of 10e43 h^{-2} ergs/s. When compared to the predicted properties of z=9 galaxies based upon no evolution of observed z=6 Lya-emitting galaxies, the `volume shortfall' of the current survey, i.e. the volume required to detect this putative population, is a factor of at least 8 to 10. We also discuss continuing narrow J-band imaging surveys that will reduce the volume shortfall factor to the point where the no-evolution prediction from z=6 is probed in a meaningful manner.

description: We report results of inelastic neutron scattering measurements of phonon dispersions in optimally doped YBa2Cu3O6.95 and compare them with model calculations. The focus is on the in-plane oxygen bond-stretching phonon branches. The study of these modes is complicated by anticrossings with c-axis-polarized branches; such effects are interpreted through lattice-dynamical shell-model calculations. The in-plane anisotropy of the bond-stretching phonons was firmly ascertained from measurements on a detwinned sample. Studying the in-plane modes involving out-of-phase motion for the two Cu-O layers within a unit cell as well as those with in-phase motion was of great help for establishing a clear experimental picture. The measurements confirm that the in-plane oxygen bond-stretching phonon branches disperse steeply downwards from the zone center in both the a and the b directions indicating a strong electron-phonon coupling. For the b-axis-polarized bond-stretching phonons, there is an additional feature of considerable interest: a sharp local frequency minimum was found to develop on cooling from room temperature to T = 10 K at the wave vector q = 0.27 r.l.u..

Food Consumption/Nutrition/Food Safety

description: Households headed by single mothers spend less money, but a greater share of their income, on food than do two-parent households. The lower spending is due primarily to their lower income and education levels- more so than to the absence of a male partner. This, however, does not necessarily imply that these households have lower food consumption or nutrition. The dramatic growth in the number of single-parent households- particularly those headed by a female-has drawn the interest of food marketers and government officials, who are trying to determine if female-headed households have different food spending patterns than other households, and what factors might influence their food spending decisions. Their interest is spurred by the fact that between 1970 and 1988, the number of female-headed households more than doubled from 3.4 million to 8.1 million-a growth from 12 percent to 24 percent of all family groups with children under age 18. An increasing proportion of U.S. children are raised in femaleheaded households-an estimated 60 percent of all children born today will spend some of their child-hood in a single-parent household, most often one headed by a woman

description: A simplified model for the closed circular DNA (ccDNA) is proposed to describe some specific features of the helix-coil transition in such molecule. The Hamiltonian of ccDNA is related to the one introduced earlier for the linear DNA. The basic assumption is that the reduced energy of the hydrogen bond is not constant through the transition process but depends effectively on the fraction of already broken bonds. A transformation formula is obtained which relates the temperature of ccDNA at a given degree of helicity during the transition to the temperature of the corresponding linear chain at the same degree of helicity. The formula provides a simple method to calculate the melting curve for the ccDNA from the experimental melting curve of the linear DNA with the same nucleotide sequence.

description: Early shallow-decaying X-ray afterglows of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) may be attributed to the dipole radiations of newly-born magnetars. Assuming that the GRB jets powered by magnetars are quasi-universal, we find that the jet structure can be parameterized as a uniform jet with a luminosity of $\log L_{\rm j}/{\rm erg\ s^{-1}}=52.68^{+0.76}_{-0.33}$ (1$σ$) and an opening angle $θ_{\rm j}=2.10_{-1.28}^{+1.90}$ (50\% confidence level), surrounding by a power-law decay component with an index of ${-4.00^{+0.27}_{-0.37}}$ (1$σ$). The inferred local GRB rate is $ρ=9.6$ Gpc$^{-3}$ yr$^{-1}$ by including both the typical GRBs and LL-GRBs as the same population. The typical viewing angle is $3.3^{o}$, and may be $20^{o}\sim30^{o}$ for LL-GRBs. The X-ray luminosity function of the dipole radiation wind can be empirically described by a broken power-law function with indices $β_1=0.78^{+0.16}_{-0.15}$ and $β_2>1.6$ broken at $\log L_{b, w}/{\rm erg\ s^{-1}}=48.51^{+0.53}_{-0.65}$. In case of that the wind outflow is collimated and co-axial with the GRB jet, we find that the wind structure is similar to the GRB jet, i.e., $\log L_{\rm c, w}/{\rm erg\ s^{-1}}=48.38^{+0.30}_{-0.48}$, $θ_{\rm c, w}={2.65^{o}}_{-1.19^{o}}^{+0.1.73^{o}}$, and $k_{\rm w}=4.57^{+1.21}_{-0.75}$. The observed correlation between the prompt gamma-ray luminosity and X-ray luminosity of the wind may be resulted from the viewing angle effect in such a jet-wind system. Discussion on survey with the X-ray instruments on board the {\em Einstein\ Probe} mission in the soft X-ray band for the jet and wind emission is also presented.

description: Several suggestions for the use of Mobile Phone (MP) sensors in science teaching are found in the literature, and most of them focus on proposing physics experiments that can be conducted with the aid of the sensors that commonly exist in smartphones. The proposed experiments rely on the Bring Your Own Devices (BYOD) approach, that is, students are allowed to bring and use their own MPs in the classroom or school science lab. The present study investigates (a) the variations in the results of experiments, and (b) other possible "technical" difficulties which arise when students use their personal MPs to take measurements with acceleration, sound, and light sensors because of the fact that the devices may be technologically different. According to the findings, as regards the acceleration and sound sensors, the teacher who decides to use the students' MPs in classroom experiments will not encounter problems with statistically significant differences in the results of the same experiment conducted with different devices. In contrast, the use of light sensors resulted in considerable difficulties, which made it possible to use only a small percentage of devices. Finally, the illuminance indications vary significantly between the devices, making it impossible to use them as reliable photometers.

description: We have assembled the historical light curves of the BL Lac Object 3FGL J0449.4-4350 at optical and gamma-ray bands, the time spanning about 10 years, analyzed the periodic variability of the light curves by using four different methods (Lomb-Scargle periodogram, REDFIT38, Jurkevich and DACF). We detected a marginally possible quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) of ~450 days. Assuming it originates from the helical motion jet in a supermassive binary black hole (SMBBH) system undergoing major merger, we estimate the primary black hole mass M~7.7*10^{9} M_sun. To explore the origin of the gamma-ray, we investigated the optical-gamma-ray correlations using discrete correlation function (DCF) method, and found that the correlation between the two bands is very significant. This strong correlation tends to imply lepton self-synchro-Compton (LSSC) model to produce the gamma-ray.

description: Spurred by income and population growth in developing countries-as well as rapidly expanding food processing industries in Asia and other developing areas-the global growth in consumption of vegetable oils is outpacing that of most other agricultural products. Consumption of vegetable oils worldwide grew at an average annual rate of 4.2 percent over the past decade. Consumption of vegetable oils also was buoyed by relatively low prices during the late 1980's. Prices have been held in check by high U.S. soybean oil stocks and abundant world supplies of other oils, particularly palm and rapeseed oil

title: Use of Personality Assessment for the Prediction of Behaviour in Horses
Creators: name: Lloyd, Adele Sian
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2008

description: There are several potential applications for horse personality assessment, but first a reliable and valid form of assessment must be developed. The primary aim of this thesis was to develop a horse personality assessment method and test it for both reliability and validity by relating personality assessments to real-world observations. A 30-item rating questionnaire was developed and was named the Horse Personality Questionnaire (HPQ). This was used to assess 61 horses, each by three raters. 71.2% of horses and 25 of the items were rated consistently between raters. Principal component analysis (PCA) on these data extracted six components that were thought to describe horse personality; Antagonism, Anxiousness, Activity, Protection, Sociability and Inquisitiveness. Personality component scores were found to correlate with horse behaviours recorded in the field, thus demonstrating the reliability and validity of the HPQ. The HPQ was also used to explore breed differences in horse personality, with 1223 horses from eight different breeds assessed. The results provided strong evidence that horse breeds differ in personality, but those breeds with linked pedigrees or functions were shown to be more alike. These results suggested that personality in horses could be, to some extent, heritable and that humans have selected for different personality types. During the third study predictions of personality behaviour correlations were tested by first assessing 14 horses and then exposing each horse to three behaviour tests (learning, arena and turn-out tests). Of 25 predicted behaviours none were found to be significant. These results did not support previous indications that personality scores could be used to predict behaviour. It was concluded that the behaviour tests used and the predictions made may not have been suitable. The three experiments are discussed in terms of their implications for personality research and the potential applications of the HPQ in the equine industry. It was concluded that the HPQ was a reliable assessment method but required further development and testing prior to application in the equine industry.

description: Indian economy is in a downward spiral some say it is because of the Modi government, some say it is because of US and China trade wars, while others say that it is the world economy influencing the Indian Economy. But, the main reason why Indian economy is slowing down can be attributed to its agriculture industry. Yes, the above forces do influence the economy of a country but India being an agriculture based economy is substantively impacted by it. Agriculture can be summed up in some of its facets such as farmers, how they produce, what they produce, how much they produce and how much of the produce gets sold and thus revenue generated. Most significant revenue generation from the agricultural sectors come through exports of its products and this is governed by the World Trade Organization’s Agreement on Agriculture. This article analyses the Agreement on Agriculture and provides in-depth analysis of India’s obligations under it to clarify and all misinformation of India not fulling its obligations that prevail outside the academic world of Law. The paper also explores the legal dimensions of the ongoing agrarian distress while relating it the International Laws. The paper suggests policies that could be changed or amended in order to bring export-led growth to the agrarian sector in deep distress a much needed and pending boost that the author thinks can revive the aging economy of the country.

description: We report the discovery of the new dipping X-ray source, XMMU J004308.6+411247, in M31, during a systematic search for periodicities in XMM-Newton archival observations. During the 2002 January 6 observation, the dips recur with a 107 min period and the source count rate is consistent with zero at the dip minimum. Dips with the same modulation and period are also observed during the XMM-Newton observations carried out on 2000 June 25, 2001 June 29 and the Chandra observation of 2001 October 5. The dips of XMMU J004308.6+411247 show no evidence of energy dependence. The average X-ray flux of XMMU J004308.6+411247 is nearly constant across different observations (~1.e37 erg/s for an assumed M31 distance of 780 kpc in the 0.3-10 keV band); the spectrum is well fit by an absorbed power law with a photon index ~0.8 or an absorbed Comptonization model. The photo-electric absorption is consistent with the Galactic value in the source direction. If XMMU J004308.6+411247 is located in M31 its properties are consistent with those of dipping low mass X-ray binaries in the Galaxy. Present observations do not allow to distinguish between dips and eclipses. The possibility that XMMU J004308.6+411247 is a foreground X-ray source cannot be ruled out at present; in this case the source might be a magnetic cataclysmic variable.

description: We study fermions, such as gravitinos and gauginos in supersymmetric theories, propagating in a five-dimensional bulk where the fifth dimensional component is assumed to be an interval. We show that the most general boundary condition at each endpoint of the interval is encoded in a single complex parameter representing a point in the Riemann sphere. Upon introducing a boundary mass term, the variational principle uniquely determines the boundary conditions and the bulk equations of motion. We show the mass spectrum becomes independent from the Scherk-Schwarz parameter for a suitable choice of one of the two boundary conditions. Furthermore, for any value of the Scherk-Schwarz parameter, a zero-mode is present in the mass spectrum and supersymmetry is recovered if the two complex parameters are tuned.

description: Flux compactifications of string theory seem to require the presence of a fine-tuned constant in the superpotential. We discuss a scheme where this constant is replaced by a dynamical quantity which we argue to be a `continuous Chern--Simons term'. In such a scheme, the gaugino condensate generates the hierarchically small scale of supersymmetry breakdown rather than adjusting its size to a constant. A crucial ingredient is the appearance of the hierarchically small quantity exp(-) which corresponds to the scale of gaugino condensation. Under rather general circumstances, this leads to a scenario of moduli stabilization, which is endowed with a hierarchy between the mass of the lightest modulus, the gravitino mass and the scale of the soft terms, m_modulus ~ m_3/2 ~ ^2 m_soft. The `little hierarchy' is given by the logarithm of the ratio of the Planck scale and the gravitino mass, ~ log(M_Pl/m_3/2) ~ 4pi^2. This exhibits a new mediation scheme of supersymmetry breakdown, called mirage mediation. We highlight the special properties of the scheme, and their consequences for phenomenology and cosmology.

description: Hybrid ion-atom systems provide an excellent platform for studies of state-resolved quantum chemistry at low temperatures, where quantum effects may be prevalent. Here we study theoretically the process of vibrational relaxation of an initially weakly bound molecular ion due to collisions with the background gas atoms. We show that this inelastic process is governed by the universal long-range part of the interaction potential, which allows for using simplified model potentials applicable to multiple atomic species. The product distribution after the collision can be estimated by making use of the distorted wave Born approximation. We find that the inelastic collisions lead predominantly to small changes in the binding energy of the molecular ion.

description: We propose novel quantum antennas and metamaterials with strong magnetic response at optical frequencies. Our design is based on the arrangement of natural atoms with only electric dipole transition moments at distances smaller than a wavelength of light but much larger than their physical size. In particular, we show that an atomic dimer can serve as a magnetic antenna at its antisymmetric mode to enhance the decay rate of a magnetic transition in its vicinity by several orders of magnitude. Furthermore, we study metasurfaces composed of atomic bilayers with and without cavities and show that they can fully reflect the electric and magnetic fields of light, thus, forming nearly perfect electric/magnetic mirrors. The proposed quantum metamaterials can be fabricated with available state-of-the-art technologies and promise several applications both in classical optics and quantum engineering.

description: Traditionally, extension programs have focused on relatively short (one hour to one day) programs that provide participants with an "overview" of the topic being presented. Some have characterized these types of programs as "dog and pony shows" that have much flare, but leave participants with little real substance that will influence the manner in which they make economic decisions. An alternative approach has been the course or workshop approach that attempts to provide a more in-depth discussion of the topic under consideration. The general belief has been that this approach is much more difficult to sell to potential extension clientele, but one that does provide for a more realistic educational experience that can change the way people make decisions. The purpose of this paper is to outline both advantages and disadvantages of the course approach to extension programs. The paper will also address some of the achninistrative issues associated with offering extension courses. Finally, the paper will conclude with a review of sequencing issues, i.e., do extension programs build upon each other, or are they simply a smorgasboard of topics?

description: We experimentally demonstrate two-photon absorption (TPA) with broadband down-converted light (squeezed vacuum). Although incoherent and exhibiting the statistics of a thermal noise, broadband down-converted light can induce TPA with the same sharp temporal behavior as femtosecond pulses, while exhibiting the high spectral resolution of the narrowband pump laser. Using pulse-shaping methods, we coherently control TPA in Rubidium, demonstrating spectral and temporal resolutions that are 3-5 orders of magnitude below the actual bandwidth and temporal duration of the light itself. Such properties can be exploited in various applications such as spread-spectrum optical communications, tomography and nonlinear microscopy.

description: Two-dimensional (2D) materials have become a fertile playground for the exploration and manipulation of novel collective electronic states. Recent experiments have unveiled a variety of robust 2D orders in highly-crystalline materials ranging from magnetism to ferroelectricity and from superconductivity to charge density wave (CDW) instability. The latter, in particular, appears in diverse patterns even within the same family of materials with isoelectronic species. Furthermore, how they evolve with dimensionality has so far remained elusive. Here we propose a general framework that provides a unfied picture of CDW ordering in the 2H polytype of four isoelectronic transition metal dichalcogenides 2H-MX$_2$ (M=Nb, Ta and X=S, Se). We first show experimentally that whilst NbSe$_2$ exhibits a strongly enhanced CDW order in the 2D limit, the opposite trend exists for TaSe$_2$ and TaS$_2$, with CDW being entirely absent in NbS$_2$ from its bulk to the monolayer. Such distinct behaviours are then demonstrated to be the result of a subtle, yet profound, competition between three factors: ionic charge transfer, electron-phonon coupling, and the spreading extension of the electronic wave functions. Despite its simplicity, our approach can, in essence, be applied to other quasi-2D materials to account for their CDW response at different thicknesses, thereby shedding new light on this intriguing quantum phenomenon and its underlying mechanisms.
title: Rule of law and human rights issues in social media content moderation

description: This thesis explores the content moderation process at social media companies. This process is divided into three distinct stages: Creation (the production of terms and conditions), Enforcement (the enforcement of those rules), and Response (the use of both internal and external methods of appeal to enact change). It explains how content moderation occurs and identifies a number of serious issues for both human rights and the rule of law in the current approach. It also proposes a variety of solutions for both small-scale and broader reform and argues for a regulatory approach grounded in procedural rule of law principles and mandatory human rights due diligence.

description: Response-adaptive designs are increasingly being implemented in clinical trials, particularly early phase trials, and they have increasingly stimulated the work of researchers. This paper reviews a particular class of response-adaptive designs, which have a different property from the most adaptive designs in literature. These are response-adaptive designs targeting asymptotically the superior response, that is, treating with the superior treatment with prob- ability converging to one. The model underlying such designs is a randomly reinforced urn. In the context of clinical trials, this property is particularly attractive from an ethical point of view. This overview starts from the early paper of [8] until the recent work by [9].
