description: Resonances are associated with the trapping of an intermolecular complex, and are characterized by a series of quantum numbers such as the total angular momentum and the parity, representative of a specific partial wave. Here we show how at cold temperatures the rotational quenching of HF(j=1,2) with H is strongly influenced by the presence of manifolds of resonances arising from the combination of a single value of the orbital angular momentum with different total angular momentum values. These resonances give rise up to a two-fold increase in the thermal rate coefficient at the low temperatures characteristic of the interstellar medium. Our results show that by selecting the relative geometry of the reactants by alignment of the HF rotational angular momentum, it is possible to decompose the resonance peak, disentangling the contribution of different total angular momenta to the resonance.

description: The SUrvey for Pulsars and Extragalactic Radio Bursts ran from 2014 April to 2019 August, covering a large fraction of the southern hemisphere at mid- to high-galactic latitudes, and consisting of 9-minute pointings taken with the 20-cm multibeam receiver on the Parkes Radio Telescope. Data up to 2017 September 21 have been searched using standard Fourier techniques, single-pulse searches, and Fast Folding Algorithm searches. We present 19 new discoveries, bringing the total to 27 discoveries in the programme, and we report the results of follow-up timing observations at Parkes for 26 of these pulsars, including the millisecond pulsar PSR J1421-4409; the faint, highly-modulated, slow pulsar PSR J1646-1910; and the nulling pulsar PSR J1337-4441. We present new timing solutions for 23 pulsars, and we report flux densities, modulation indices, and polarization properties.

description: This article provides an empirical test of the traditional theory of permit value and investigates the impact of recent changes in public land policies on the value of grazing permits. Results suggest that the cost advantage for grazing on public lands has been capitalized into substantial permit values, but other economic and hedonic factors influencing land prices also have contributed to the value of grazing permits. Public land grazing permits have fallen in value relative to deeded land as grazing fees have increased and as assurance has waned that public land policies will continue to be favorable to ranchers.

description: The impacts of deregulation on New Zealand's agricultural sector are examined. Economic liberalization of all sectors of economic activity is the hallmark of current economic policy designs in New Zealand. This is in sharp contrast to previous policies reliant on massive government assistance to and intervention in agriculture. The study provides insights into the cumulative and distortionary extent of previous assistance policies, discusses the rationale in removing public financial assistance, and reviews the readjustment process. As a case study, New Zealand's experience reveals difficulties which may confront farmers in other economies where policy makers seek a return to free market conditions.

description: This paper proposes an approach to detect information relevance during decision-making from eye movements in order to enable user interface adaptation. This is a challenging task because gaze behavior varies greatly across individual users and tasks and groundtruth data is difficult to obtain. Thus, prior work has mostly focused on simpler target-search tasks or on establishing general interest, where gaze behavior is less complex. From the literature, we identify six metrics that capture different aspects of the gaze behavior during decision-making and combine them in a voting scheme. We empirically show, that this accounts for the large variations in gaze behavior and out-performs standalone metrics. Importantly, it offers an intuitive way to control the amount of detected information, which is crucial for different UI adaptation schemes to succeed. We show the applicability of our approach by developing a room-search application that changes the visual saliency of content detected as relevant. In an empirical study, we show that it detects up to 97% of relevant elements with respect to user self-reporting, which allows us to meaningfully adapt the interface, as confirmed by participants. Our approach is fast, does not need any explicit user input and can be applied independent of task and user.

description: Temporal relationships are investigated among fabricated cut prices, carcass value, and fed cattle prices. Also, linkages between fed cattle and wholesale beef prices are examined using vector autoregressive (VAR) techniques. Results, using daily prices over the 1980-85 period, suggested that fabricated cut prices and cattle prices are related to the imputed carcass value, carcass quote, and fed cattle prices. In addition, three fabricated cuts dominate as leading indicators of fed cattle prices of most fabricated cut prices. They are strip loin and bottom and top round prices. VAR models outperform the univariate and random-walk models of forecasting ability.
Dirac equation from the Hamiltonian and the case with a gravitational field

Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: Starting from an interpretation of the classical-quantum correspondence, we derive the Dirac equation by factorizing the algebraic relation satisfied by the classical Hamiltonian, before applying the correspondence. This derivation applies in the same form to a free particle, to one in an electromagnetic field, and to one subjected to geodesic motion in a static metric, and leads to the same, usual form of the Dirac equation--in special coordinates. To use the equation in the static-gravitational case, we need to rewrite it in more general coordinates. This can be done only if the usual, spinor transformation of the wave function is replaced by the 4-vector transformation. We show that the latter also makes the flat-space-time Dirac equation Lorentz-covariant, although the Dirac matrices are not invariant. Because the equation itself is left unchanged in the flat case, the 4-vector transformation does not alter the main physical consequences of that equation in that case. However, the equation derived in the static-gravitational case is not equivalent to the standard (Fock-Weyl) gravitational extension of the Dirac equation.

Danube Gorges
Pannonian plain

description: The Mesolithic-Neolithic settlements in the Danube Gorges (North-Central Balkans) flourished in a specific landscape, with rapid changes in the riverbed, whirlpools, cataracts and strong river currents. These features were particularly favourable for fishing, and led to the prolonged stay of human communities during the Mesolithic (ca. 9500-6200 cal BC) and the emergence of permanent
 settlements in the Transformational Mesolithic-Neolithic phase (ca. 6200-5900 cal BC). Even with the appearance of domestic animals after 6000 cal BC, these settlements remained in use primarily as fishing centres, suggesting that subsistence strategies in the Danube Gorges remained unchanged even after the appearance of the first farming and stock breeding communities. Apart from the Danube Gorges, these ‘new’ communities settled in strikingly different landscapes – the hilly terrain of the Central Balkans and the flat terrain of the Pannonian plain, more suitable for farming and animal herding. However, the spatial clustering of Early Neolithic sites in the vicinity of rivers and lakes, as well as the occurrence of fish remains, signal that fishing occupied a significant role at least at some locations. The paper explores the role and extent of aquatic resource exploitation at the advent of food production, both in the Danube Gorges area where fishing represented a long local tradition, and in the newly established Neolithic sites in the Pannonian plain. The aim of this study, as well as future analyses of Early Neolithic faunal assemblages, is to problematise the presumed dichotomy between Mesolithic and Early Neolithic subsistence strategies, and the relationship between economic practices and particular landscapes.

description: QPOs are seen as peak features in the X-ray power spectral density of stellar mass black holes and neutron stars, of which frequencies can be measured with high precision. These QPO frequencies are believed to be related to fundamental frequencies of test particles, which are mainly determined by the background metric. We consider the metric introduced in Ghasemi-Nodehi and Bambi (Eur Phys J C 76:290, 2016). The fundamental frequencies in this metric are sensitive to some of the metric parameters but insensitive to other parameters, which means, the differences in fundamental frequencies in this metric and those in the Kerr ones can be significant for small changes of some but not all parameters around the Kerr value. By comparing with the QPO observations of GRO J1655-40, we find that only one parameter of the Ghasemi-Nodehi-Bambi metric can be strongly constrained, but other parameters cannot. We also use nested algorithm to investigate whether better constraints on the Ghasemi-Nodehi-Bambi metric parameters can be obtained from QPO observations of multiple objects by simulations. We find that four parameters can be strongly constrained while other parameters cannot . Our results suggest that QPOs may be important tools for testing the Kerr metric.

description: In each year, Iranian government provides for food subsidy in its budget. Recently, the effect of food subsidy to the households has been controversial. In this Article we use vector autoregressive method for investigating the effect of food subsidy reduction on Iranian households' calorie intake. The results show that one unit standard error reduction in food subsidy without income compensation has a considerable negative effect on calorie intake in short-run and that it takes around five years for households to adjust themselves to the new condition. But, if the negative shock of food subsidy reduction occurs with the same amount of positive income, then the effect of income increasing not only removes the negative effects of subsidy reduction, but also will have positive effect on calorie intake in short-run and long-run. Therefore, it seems that focusing on food subsidy reduction is not the best solution.

description: This paper explores the concept of engagement, the process by which individuals in an interaction start, maintain and end their perceived connection to one another. The paper reports on one aspect of engagement among human interactors--the effect of tracking faces during an interaction. It also describes the architecture of a robot that can participate in conversational, collaborative interactions with engagement gestures. Finally, the paper reports on findings of experiments with human participants who interacted with a robot when it either performed or did not perform engagement gestures. Results of the human-robot studies indicate that people become engaged with robots: they direct their attention to the robot more often in interactions where engagement gestures are present, and they find interactions more appropriate when engagement gestures are present than when they are not.

description: In this paper, the unified gas-kinetic wave-particle (UGKWP) method has been constructed on three-dimensional unstructured mesh with parallel computing for multiscale flow simulation. Following the direct modeling methodology of the unified gas-kinetic scheme (UGKS), the UGKWP method models the flow dynamics uniformly in different regime and gets the local cell's Knudsen number dependent numerical solution directly without the requirement of kinetic scale cell resolution. The UGKWP method is composed of evolution of deterministic wave and stochastic particles. With the dynamic wave-particle decomposition, the UGKWP method is able to capture the continuum wave interaction and rarefied particle transport under a unified framework and achieves the high efficiency in different flow regime. The UGKWP flow solver is validated by many three-dimensional test cases of different Mach and Knudsen numbers, which include 3D shock tube problem, lid-driven cavity flow, high-speed flow passing through a cubic object, and hypersonic flow around a space vehicle. The parallel performance has been tested on the Tianhe-2 supercomputer, and reasonable parallel performance has been observed up to one thousand core processing. Due to wave-particle formulation, the UGKWP method has great potential in solving three-dimensional multiscale transport with the co-existence of continuum and rarefied flow regimes, especially for the high-speed rarefied and continuum flow around space vehicle in near space flight.

description: The notions of a cleft extension and a cross product with a Hopf algebroid are introduced and studied. In particular it is shown that an extension (with a Hopf algebroid $H= (H_L,H_R)$) is cleft if and only if it is $H_R$-Galois and has a normal basis property relative to the base ring $L$ of $H_L$. Cleft extensions are identified as crossed products with invertible cocycles. The relationship between the equivalence classes of crossed products and gauge transformations is established. Strong connections in cleft extensions are classified and sufficient conditions are derived for the Chern-Galois characters to be independent on the choice of strong connections. The results concerning cleft extensions and crossed product are then extended to the case of weak cleft extensions of Hopf algebroids hereby defined.

description: The non-local conserved quantities of N=1 Super KdV are obtained using a complete algebraic framework where the Gardner category is introduced. A fermionic substitution semigroup and the resulting Gardner category are defined and several propositions concerning their algebraic structure are proven. This algebraic framework allows to define general transformations between different nonlinear SUSY differential equations. We then introduce a SUSY ring extension to deal with the non-local conserved quantities of SKdV. The algebraic version of the non-local conserved quantities is solved in terms of the exponential function applied to the $D^{-1}$ of the local conserved quantities of SKdV. Finally the same formulas are shown to work for rapidly decreasing superfields.

description: This working paper is a summary of the results of the research project "Food Security Strategies for Selected South Pacific Island Countries" which are published separately in four country study reports and a workshop proceedings. The "SouthPIC" project was formulated based on observation that, although historically there is little evidence of chronic food shortage in the South Pacific island countries, some new emerging trends may have gradually eroded the adaptive strength of the national food security systems in the region. The general objectives of this project are to analyze food security conditions in selected South Pacific island countries and to formulate appropriate policy options for their food security strategies.
Negotiating home : subtitle four children’s experiences in the Mormon Indian Student Placement Program
Creators: name: Wright, Darrell Ian
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This study is an examination of the experiences of four people who, between September of 1967 to June of 1968, were involved in the Mormon Indian Student Placement Program. Two of the participants were First Nations children who, at the ages of eight and ten, were participants in a program that involved leaving their home Haida village on Haida Gwaii-Queen Charlotte Islands, British Columbia to live in Mormon homes in Alberta for ten months. The other two participants were Mormon children of the families who sponsored the two First Nations children. The primary goal of the study is to understand how these people place the experience of being involved in the Mormon Indian Student Placement Program within their lives. Using primary research gained from interviews with the four subjects of the study, I have created a thesis that explores several topics within the context of their stories. First, I explore an array of relevant secondary literature to identify important gaps that are in need of investigation within the history of childhood, especially as it pertains to First Nations children. I then use the memories of the subjects to describe their experience with the program and to describe how they make sense of that experience thirty-four years later. Finally, I argue that memory is a valid and rich historical source and that the differences in memories between subjects are significant to an understanding of the experience as a whole. I argue that family was the prime mediator of the experience for the First Nations children and that within the Mormon Indian Student Placement Program, regardless of the intentions of the families with whom the children were placed, the structure of power was such that the children were very much powerless. The result was that the children necessarily needed to negotiate their space within the family. I argue that negotiation is a key concept, since the experiences of the children involved in the program were characterized and differentiated by their ability to negotiate their own self-definition within the differing power relationships. These power relationships were based on racial, gendered and religious understandings.

description: We present simultaneous UV-G-R-I monitoring of 19 M dwarfs that revealed a huge flare on the M9 dwarf 2MASSW J1707183+643933 with an amplitude in the UV of at least 6 magnitudes. This is one of the strongest detections ever of an optical flare on an M star and one of the first in an ultracool dwarf (UCD, spectral types later than about M7). Four intermediate strength flares (Delta m_UV < 4 mag) were found in this and three other targets. For the whole sample we deduce a flare probability of 0.013 (rate of 0.018/hr), and 0.049 (0.090/hr) for 2M1707+64 alone. Deviations of the flare emission from a blackbody is consistent with strong Halpha line emission. We also confirm the previously found rotation period for 2M1707+64 (Rockenfeller, Bailer-Jones & Mundt (2006), http://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0511614/) and determine it more precisely to be 3.619 +/- 0.015 hr.

description: We examine the potential effects of water trading on aggregate welfare and income distribution across the agricultural and service sector of a small rural economy. We show that per capita welfare (real income) of agents in the region increase with increased water trading. Not surprisingly, if enough agents leaves the region (income flight), nominal income can fall. If the share of household income spent on services is large (small) relative to the cost share of services in agricultural production, then the service price increases (decreases) with increased water trading. Typically when the service price falls (increases) farmers win (lose), service providers lose (win) and agricultural service providers almost always lose. Thus, a natural conflict emerges between farming and service sector stakeholders.

description: The reverberation associated with the iron line is the time lag between direct photons from the corona and the photons reflected from the disk. The resulting line spectrum is called the 2D transfer function. The shape of the 2D transfer function is determined by the geometry of spacetime and the properties of BH. In a paper (Ghasemi-Nodehi and Bambi in EPJC 76:290, 2016), the authors have proposed a parametrization. This parametrization is aimed to test the Kerr nature of astrophysical black hole candidates. In this paper, I provide a reverberation mapping of the Ghasemi-Nodehi-Bambi metric in order to constrain the parameter of spacetime. All parameters can be constrained with the exception of b11. The parameter b4 is harder to constrain too.

description: A maximum likelihood analysis of the NGC 4258 maser positions and velocities reveals a ~2 sigma deviation from Keplerian motion in the projected rotation curve of the high-velocity features, corresponding to a ~9 km/s, or 0.8%, flattening of the LOS velocities with respect to Keplerian motion over the range of the high-velocity masers. While there are a number of potential explanations for this flattening, we argue for pure Keplerian rotation in an inclination-warped disk based on the ability of this model to explain a number of otherwise puzzling features of the system. A radial gradient in the disk inclination of 0.034 mas^{-1} is not only consistent with the observed rotation curve, but it generates a bowl along the near edge of the disk that naturally explains the otherwise puzzling narrow spread in the declinations of the systemic masers. It also explains the existence and location of an apparently recurring flare amongst the systemic masers. There is no significant evidence for non-Keplerian rotation in the inclination-warped disk. An additional implication of the inclination warp is that the disk rises in front of and obscures the central engine at a disk radius of about 8.3 mas, or 0.29 pc. By comparing the observed X-ray column to conditions in the disk at this radius, we argue that the molecular-to-atomic transition occurs just beyond the outermost maser at 0.28 pc and from this we infer an accretion rate of \~10^{-4}alpha M_sun/yr, consistent with the jet-dominated accretion models of Yuan et al. (2002). Our model suggests that most of the observed X-ray column arises in the warped accretion disk at 0.29 pc, and that the maser emission is truncated at large radii predominantly as a result of the molecular-to-atomic phase transition originally proposed by Neufeld & Maloney (1995).

description: The continued cultivation of landraces by household farms in centers of domestication and diversity is considered to be an in situ means of conservation of crop genetic resources. However, because in situ conservation has continued into the present does not ensure that this de facto strategy for conserving crop genetic resources will continue into the future. Whether or not traditional varieties continue to be cultivated rests primarily on factors influencing the crop decisions of these household farms. This paper focuses on two questions: 1) what are the significant determinants influencing the household cultivation of traditional wheat varieties; and 2) how do those determinants affect on-farm levels of diversity and the stability of on-farm conservation? To address these questions, we incorporate socioeconom ic/household characteristics, as well as information on agroecological heterogeneity, market access, and perceptions of variety attributes into a household land-use decision model to examine plot-level decisions to cultivate wheat landraces. The results of this research have policy implications at several levels. If policy makers support in situ conservation, information on the househo lds most likely to continue to cultivate landraces, as well as the landraces cultivated by those households, can provide an idea of the likelihood of maintaining the current in situ conservation of crop genetic resources without intervention. Information on these households and on the significant determinants of their landrace cultivation can also provide guidance on the types and levels of intervention necessary, as well as the potential costs.

description: We analyze the effects of the 2004 CAP reform and EU enlargement on European and world agricultural markets. We compare the results from a CAP reform only and a CAP reform plus enlargement scenarios to a no-enlargement baseline implementing Agenda 2000 CAP policies. We utilize the Food and Agricultural Policy Research Institute's policy analysis model to simulate the effects of CAP reform and EU enlargement on production, consumption, and trade for the EU, its New Member States (NMS), and major players in world agricultural markets. The model is a partial-equilibrium model of world agricultural markets including important producer and consumer countries in world livestock and products, dairy, grains, oilseeds and products, cotton and sugar markets. Each country's commodity sectors are modeled with structural equations which incorporate all important policy parameters. With prices in most commodities in the NMS historically below EU-15 prices accession leads to substantial price increases for many commodities in the NMS. Higher prices stimulate production and dampen consumption in the NMS, and trade between the new members and the EU-15 increases. Prices in the EU-15 decrease moderately. The impact of the two reforms on world markets is negligible. The CAP reforms have their greatest impact in the EU-15 markets for meats, rice, rapeseed, and dairy products. CAP reforms without enlargement generate a small increase in world and EU commodity prices.

description: Photometric variability of a directly imaged exo-Earth conveys spatial information on its surface and can be used to retrieve a two-dimensional geography and axial tilt of the planet (spin-orbit tomography). In this study, we relax the assumption of the static geography and present a computationally tractable framework for dynamic spin-orbit tomography applicable to the time-varying geography. First, a Bayesian framework of static spin-orbit tomography is revisited using analytic expressions of the Bayesian inverse problem with a Gaussian prior. We then extend this analytic framework to a time-varying one through a Gaussian process in time domain, and present analytic expressions that enable efficient sampling from a full joint posterior distribution of geography, axial tilt, spin rotation period, and hyperparameters in the Gaussian-process priors. Consequently, it only takes 0.3 s for a laptop computer to sample one posterior dynamic map conditioned on the other parameters with 3,072 pixels and 1,024 time grids, for a total of $\sim 3 \times 10^6$ parameters. We applied our dynamic mapping method on a toy model and found that the time-varying geography was accurately retrieved along with the axial-tilt and spin rotation period. In addition, we demonstrated the use of dynamic spin-orbit tomography with a real multi-color light curve of the Earth as observed by the Deep Space Climate Observatory. We found that the resultant snapshots from the dominant component of a principle component analysis roughly captured the large-scale, seasonal variations of the clear-sky and cloudy areas on the Earth.

description: While obesity is a growing problem that entails considerable costs, its causes for individuals are not yet well understood in economic terms. Three explanatory approaches are explored: obesity as a rational decision pursued by the individual, obesity as a problem of too little information and obesity as the result of a weak will. While the recent rise in obesity can be explained rationally by a changed environment, information deficiencies and akrasia contribute to explaining its frequency. If the state intervenes, a fat tax carries much higher allocative losses than taxing overweight directly.

description: Introducing a stocking rate restriction is one possible course of action for regulators to improve water quality where it is affected by nitrate pollution. To determine the impact of a stocking rate restriction on a range of New Zealand dairy farms, a whole-farm model was optimised with and without a maximum stocking rate of 2.5 cows per hectare. Three farm systems, which differ by their level of feed-related capital, were examined for the changes to the optimal stocking rate and optimal level of animal milk production genetics when utility was maximised. The whole-farm model was optimised through the use of an evolutionary algorithm called differential evolution. The introduction of a stocking rate restriction would have a very large impact on the optimally organised high feed-related capital farm systems, reducing their certainty equivalent by almost half. However, there was no impact on the certainty equivalent of low feed-related capital systems.
