description: Using a new horizontal flux growth technique to produce high quality crystals of the unconventional superconductor YFe$_2$Ge$_2$ has led to a seven-fold reduction in disorder scattering, resulting in mm-sized crystals with residual resistivities $\simeq \SI{0.45}{\micro\ohm\centi\meter}$, resistivity ratios $\simeq 430$ and sharp superconducting heat capacity anomalies. This enables searching multi-probe experiments investigating the normal and superconducting states of YFe$_2$Ge$_2$. Low temperature heat capacity measurements suggest a significant residual Sommerfeld coefficient, consistent with in-gap states induced by residual disorder as predicted for a sign-changing order parameter.

description: Hot carrier solar cells promise theoretical power conversion efficiencies far beyond the single junction limit. However, practical implementations of hot carrier solar cells have lagged far behind those theoretical predictions. Reciprocity relations for electro-luminescence from conventional single junction solar cells have been extremely successful in driving their efficiency ever closer to the theoretical limits. In this work, we discuss how the signatures of a functioning hot carrier device should manifest experimentally in electro-luminescence and dark $I-V$ characteristics. Hot carrier properties lead to deviations from the Shockley diode equation that is typical for conventional single junction solar cells. These deviations are directly linked to an increase in temperature of the carriers and therefore the temperature measured from electro-luminescence spectra. We also elucidate how the behaviour of hot carrier solar cells in the dark depends on whether Auger processes play a significant role, revealing a stark contrast between the regime of negligible Auger recombination (carrier conservation model) and dominant Auger recombination (Impact Ionization model) for hot carrier solar cells.

Stochastical distributions of lens and source properties for observed galactic microlensing events
Creators: name: Dominik, M.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A comprehensive new approach is presented for deriving probability densities of physical properties characterizing lens or source that constitute an observed galactic microlensing event. While previously encountered problems are overcome, constraints from event anomalies and model parameter uncertainties can be incorporated into the estimate. Probability densities for given events need to be carefully distinguished from the statistical distribution of the same parameters among the underlying population from which the actual lenses and sources are drawn. Using given model distributions of the mass spectrum, the mass density, and the velocity distribution of Galactic disk and bulge constituents, probability densities of lens mass, distance, and the effective lens-source velocities are derived, where the effect on the distribution that arises from additional observations of annual parallax or finite-source effects, or the absence of significant effects, is shown. The presented formalism can also be used to calculate probabilities for the lens to belong to one or another population and to estimate parameters that characterize anomalies. Finally, it is shown how detection efficiency maps for binary-lens companions in the physical parameters companion mass and orbital semi-major axis arise from values determined for the mass ratio and dimensionless projected separation parameter, including the deprojection of the orbital motion for elliptical orbits. Compared to the naive estimate based on 'typical values', the detection efficiency for low-mass companions is increased by mixing in higher detection efficiencies for smaller mass ratios (i.e. smaller masses of the primary).

Lectotype (designated here):—In Bolivia (d’Orbigny!) […] (v. in h. mus. Par.) [d’Orbigny 469] (P 00152271!).
Notes: —Material collected by D’Orbigny was cited in the protologue of S. orbignianus without specifying a collection number. Later, Wimmer (1953) mentioned two specimens deposited in the Paris Herbarium (‘ D’Orbigny 469!, 414 - Hb. Paris’). Of these, we found and selected the specimen D’Orbigny 469 (P 00152271) as lectotype of the species since it fully agrees with the protologue and it is a well-preserved and complete specimen.
Considering the surname of the person on which this name was dedicated, his correct latinization, and the incorrect writing by later authors, we clarify here that the exact spelling according to the author of the species in the original publication is “orbignianus ” with “i”, not with “y”.

description: Time constraints limits this paper to giving a brief overview of a selection of only the most important events on the policy front. The aim is to set the stage for the conference by giving a synoptic overview of South African agricultural policy between 1994 and 2004. To put the policy development in historical and developmental perspective, relevant pre-1994 realities will be mentioned first. After outlining the policy development between 1994 and 2004, the presentation concludes with some 2004 realities and a perspective on the relevance of agricultural economics as a discipline.
Wages and wage elasticities for wine and table grapes in South Africa

Year: 2005
Subjects: Labor and Human Capital

description: A survey of 190 wine and table grape farmers in the Western Cape puts the average wage for farm labour at R928 per month in 2003 and R1123 per month in 2004. Output per worker has doubled since 1983. On farms with grape harvesters, labour is 30 per cent more productive (48 ton/worker) than on farms where wine grapes are picked by hand (37 ton/worker). At 9.75 tons per worker, table grapes are four times as labour-intensive as wine grapes. Resident men dominate the workforce on wine farms, while the resident female workforce is 20 per cent larger than the resident male workforce on table grape farms. Seasonal workers contribute a third of labour in table grapes, and brokers less than ten per cent in either case. In a single-equation short-run Hicksian demand function, wage, output, capital levels and mechanisation intensities are highly significant determinants of employment. Higher wages decrease employment and larger output increases employment. More mechanisation, measured by the number of tractors used to produce a ton of fruit, raises labour intensity too. Grape harvesters could not be shown to reduce jobs. The ten per cent rise in the minimum wage planned for March 2005 could reduce employment by 3.3 per cent in the wine industry and 5.9 per cent in the table grape industry, but it is more likely that the wage increase will be offset against fewer benefits. The average expected impact is about the same as for all agriculture and manufacturing as a whole.

description: The phenomenon of explosive synchronization, which originates from hypersensitivity to small perturbation caused by some form of frustration prevailed in various physical and biological systems, has been shown to lead events of cascading failure of the power grid to chronic pain or epileptic seizure in the brain. Furthermore, networks provide a powerful model to understand and predict the properties of a diverse range of real-world complex systems. Recently, a multilayer network has been realized as a better suited framework for the representation of complex systems having multiple types of interactions among the same set of constituents. This article shows that by tuning the properties of one layer (network) of a multilayer network, one can regulate the dynamical behavior of another layer (network). By taking an example of a multiplex network comprising two different types of networked Kuramoto oscillators representing two different layers, this article attempts to provide a glimpse of opportunities and emerging phenomena multiplexing can induce which is otherwise not possible for a network in isolation. Here we consider explosive synchronization to demonstrate the potential of multilayer networks framework. To the end, we discuss several possible extensions of the model considered here by incorporating real-world properties.

RNA Interference and their application in Veterinary Parasitology

description: The term ‘RNA world’ was first coined some four billion years ago when RNA was genetic material and catalyst for emerging life on Earth. The process that reflects an RNA world -RNA silencing or RNA interference (RNAi). When exposed to foreign genetic material (RNA or DNA), many organisms mount highly specific counter attacks to silence the invading nucleic-acid sequences before these sequences can integrate into the host genome or subvert cellular processes. At the heart of these sequence-directed immunity mechanisms is double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). dsRNA also guides endogenous developmental gene regulation, and can even control the modification of cellular DNA and associated chromatin.

description: It is now fifteen years ago that the Berlin Wall fell, the start of a vast set of changes throughout the countries of Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union. Reforms in the Communist world had started earlier further east: first in China in the late 1970s and in Vietnam in the mid 1980s. The changes affected society in a multitude of ways. They affected the way the political and economic system operated but also the social organization of society, the psychology of the people living in the countries, and the culture of day-to-day life. In this essay I focus on how these changes affected the rural economy and the agricultural and food sector. I will discuss developments and performances of the countries during transition, the causes behind them, and the policy lessons they imply. My analysis relies heavily on work I have done with various co-authors on these issues and I refer to these publications for details on some of the issues and arguments which I will forward here somewhat too brief to do justice to their complexity. For more detailed arguments and analyses I refer in particular to Rozelle and Swinnen (2004) and Macours and Swinnen (2000, 2002).

description: This study attempts to identify factors responsible for differences in the productivity of cattle managed by private and communal livestock farmers in the southern region of Botswana during 1999/2000. Sample survey data are used to estimate the parameters of a block recursive regression model. Some of the equations postulated in the model are estimated with two-stage least squares (2SLS) to account for likely correlation between endogenous explanatory variables and the error term. The results show that (a) respondents with secure land tenure (private farms) and larger herds use more agricultural credit than do those who rely on open access communal grazing to raise cattle; (b) secure tenure and higher levels of liquidity from long-term credit and off-farm wage remittances promote investment in fixed improvements to land; (c) liquidity from short-term credit and wage remittances supports expenditure on operating inputs; and (d) herd productivity increases with greater investment in operating inputs and fixed improvements, and is therefore positively (but indirectly) influenced by secure land tenure. It can be inferred that government should (a) uphold private property rights to land where they already exist; (b) privatise open access grazing to individual owner-operators where this is politically, socially and economically feasible; and (c) where privatisation to individuals is not feasible, government should encourage users to convert the grazing into common property by subsidising the transaction costs of defining user groups and the boundaries of their resources, and of negotiating and enforcing rules limiting individual use of common property. This first-step in a gradual shift towards private property might be followed by a conversion of user-groups into non-user groups organised along the lines of investor-owned firms where members exchange use rights for benefits rights.

description: The article is devoted to modern approaches to prevention, diagnosis and treatment of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Current molecular diagnostic methods, including PCR and serological tests, as well as antibiotic therapy regimens and the use of vaccines, such as the HPV vaccine, are explained. The importance of educational programs to increase awareness of STIs and the availability of health services for risk groups is emphasized. Further research in this area is recommended to adapt strategies and reduce the spread of STIs.

description: We prove that the level sets of a real C^s function of two variables near a non-degenerate critical point are of class C^[s/2] and apply this to the study of planar sections of surfaces close to the singular section by the tangent plane at hyperbolic points or elliptic points, and in particular at umbilic points. We also analyse the cases coming from degenerate critical points, corresponding to elliptic cusps of Gauss on a surface, where the differentiability is now reduced to C^[s/4]. However in all our applications to symmetry sets of families of plane curves, we assume the C^infty smoothness.

description: The Web Summit conference in Lisbon, Portugal, is one of the biggest technology conferences in Europe, attended by tens of thousands of people every year. The high influx of people into Lisbon causes significant stress on the city's transit services for the duration of the conference. For the Web Summit 2019, Volkswagen AG partnered with the city of Lisbon for a pilot project to provide quantum computing-based traffic optimization. A two-phase solution was implemented: the first phase used data science techniques to analyze the movement of people from previous conferences to build temporary new bus routes throughout the city. The second phase used a custom Android navigation app installed in the buses operated by Carris, powered by a quantum optimization service provided by Volkswagen that connected to live traffic data and a D-Wave quantum processing unit to optimize the buses' routes in real-time. To our knowledge, this is the first commercial application that depends on a quantum processor to perform a critical live task.

description: We present a Raman scattering study of Ca$_2$RuO$_4$, in which we investigate the temperature-dependence of the lattice dynamics and the electron-phonon interaction below the metal-insulator transition temperature ({\it T}$_{\rm MI}$). Raman spectra obtained in a backscattering geometry with light polarized in the ab-plane reveal 9 B$_{1g}$ phonon modes (140, 215, 265, 269, 292, 388, 459, 534, and 683 cm$^{-1}$) and 9 A$_g$ phonon modes (126, 192, 204, 251, 304, 322, 356, 395, and 607 cm$^{-1}$) for the orthorhombic crystal structure (Pbca$-$D$_{2h}^{15}$). With increasing temperature toward {\it T}$_{\rm MI}$, the observed phonon modes shift to lower energies and exhibit reduced spectral weights, reflecting structural changes associated with the elongation of the RuO$_6$ octahedra. Interestingly, the phonons exhibit significant increases in linewidths and asymmetries for {\it T} $>$ {\it T}$_{\rm N}$. These results indicate that there is an increase in the effective number of electrons and the electron-phonon interaction strengths as the temperature is raised through {\it T}$_{\rm N}$, suggesting the presence of orbital fluctuations in the temperature regime {\it T}$_{\rm N}$ $

description: This paper begins by arguing that agricultural economics has an important contribution to make to the economic transition of the new democratic South Africa. Policies are required to reduce unemployment, poverty and inequality, but does the work of agricultural economists provide the policy makers with the information necessary to make the correct choices? In this context, we update our recent work on technology, efficiency and productivity in South African agriculture, for both the commercial and smallholder sub-sectors. For the commercial sector, this means extending the total factor productivity index and estimates of the demand for labour. For the smallholder sector, there are new results on the impacts of GM cotton and white maize on output and employment. However, this piecemeal approach treats the two sectors as entirely separate, when they are actually interdependent. Thus, a Ricardian model of dualistic agriculture is used to explain the historical development of dualism in agriculture, especially how the native agriculturalists were impoverished by the colonists. Then this model is adapted to resemble the Harris-Todaro model of urban unemployment is order to represent the present dual agricultural sector. This allows the current policy options to be compared, although real data is needed to estimate the relationships and so the full analysis remains incomplete.

description: One region of the electromagnetic spectrum that is relatively unexploited for materials characterization is the millimeter wave band (frequencies roughly between 40 and 300 GHz). Millimeter wave techniques involve free-space (non-contacting) measurements which have a length scale that makes them ideal for characterizing bulk properties of multicomponent composites where the scale of homogeneity is on the order of millimeters. Such composites include granular materials such as rocks, fluid mixtures, suspensions and emulsions. Here we show measurements on partially saturated rocks and an oil/water mixture, demonstrating that millimeter wave spectroscopy is sensitive yet rapid measure of changing composition.

It is shown that coordinate noncommutativity leads to: i) the existence of a minimal non-zero mass to which black hole can shrink; ii) a finite maximum temperature that the black hole can reach before cooling down to absolute zero; iii) the absence of any curvature singularity. The proposed scenario offers a possible solution to conventional difficulties when describing terminal phase of black hole evaporation.

description: A novel generalization of the Winfree model of globally coupled phase oscillators, representing phase reduction under finite coupling, is studied analytically. We consider interactions through a non-infinitesimal (or finite) phase-response curve (PRC), in contrast to the infinitesimal PRC of the original model. For a family of non-infinitesimal PRCs, the global dynamics is captured by one complex-valued ordinary differential equation resorting to the Ott-Antonsen ansatz. The phase diagrams are thereupon obtained for four illustrative cases of non-infinitesimal PRC. Bistability between collective synchronization and full desynchronization is observed in all cases.

description: This study investigates possible causes of poverty afflicting a community of land reform beneficiaries in the Midlands of KwaZulu-Natal. The 38 beneficiary households had previously been clustered into four groups displaying different symptoms of poverty. Linear Discriminant Analysis was used first to distinguish households that were relatively income and asset "rich" from those that were relatively income and asset "poor", and second to distinguish households that were relatively income poor but "asset rich" from those relatively asset poor but "income rich". In the first analysis it was found that "rich" households could be distinguished from "poor" households using just two indicator variables; gender of the household head and family size. Larger, female-headed households have lower income and wealth per adult equivalent. In the second analysis, it was found that the "asset rich" had more human capital whereas the "income rich" owned vehicles and had fewer dependants per worker. Policy recommendations therefore point to education and vocational training - especially for women, better access to transport, jobs and banking facilities (to mobilise savings) in the long run, and improved and better targeting of social welfare grants for the chronically poor in the short run. These interventions are also expected to increase the demand for family planning and contraception, which in turn helps to reduce family sizes and the premature loss of breadwinners.

description: In this paper, through making careful analysis of Gauss and Codazzi equations, we prove that four dimensional biharmonic hypersurfaces in nonzero space form have constant mean curvature. Our result gives the positive answer to the conjecture proposed by Balmus-Montaldo-Oniciuc in 2008 for four dimensional hypersurfaces.

Subjects: subject: Crop Production/Industries

subject: demand
subject: supply
subject: plant production

description: Due to the rapid expansion of the poultry industry not only in Sri Lanka but also in other countries, the demand for feed crops has increased substantially. The CGPRT Centre initiated a study to analyze the situation in South Asia under a project called "Prospects of Feed Crops in South Asia (FEED)". The study was initiated to understand the demand-supply gap, weaknesses, opportunities, constraints and policy options to bridge the gap of feed crops in Sri Lanka. For this study, the data was collected from the Department of Animal Production and Health (AP & H), the Department of Census & Statistics and the Central Bank of Sri Lanka. Additional data was collected from other sources such as the Department of National Planning, Sri Lanka Customs and the Institute of Policy Studies to investigate the behaviour mainly on imports and policies related to the development of food and feed crops in Sri Lanka. Most of the relevant data was collected from the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock and the Department of Agriculture. The collected data was processed and a model was used to determine future demand and supply of maize as the main feed crop in Sri Lanka. The models were not used for soybean, root and tuber crops or other pulses due to the non-availability of sufficient data at the time. A workshop, with the participation of senior scientists, policy makers and private sector representatives, was conducted to identify the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of expanding feed crops and some policy recommendations for the further development of these crops.
In-medium Properties of $Θ^{+}$ as a K$π$N structure in Relativistic Mean Field Theory
Creators: name: Zhong, Xian-Hui

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The properties of nuclear matter are discussed with the relativistic mean-field theory (RMF).Then, we use two models in studying the in-medium properties of $Θ^+$: one is the point-like $Θ^*$ in the usual RMF and the other is a K$π$N structure for the pentaquark. It is found that the in-medium properties of $Θ^+$ are dramatically modified by its internal structure. The effective mass of $Θ^+$ in medium is, at normal nuclear density, about 1030 MeV in the point-like model, while it is about 1120 MeV in the model of K$π$N pentaquark. The nuclear potential depth of $Θ^+$ in the K$π$N model is approximately -37.5 MeV, much shallower than -90 MeV in the usual point-like RMF model.

Case Survey Studies in Software Engineering Research
Creators: name: Melegati, Jorge

Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Software Engineering (cs.SE)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Background: Given the social aspects of Software Engineering (SE), in the last twenty years, researchers from the field started using research methods common in social sciences such as case study, ethnography, and grounded theory. More recently, case survey, another imported research method, has seen its increasing use in SE studies. It is based on existing case studies reported in the literature and intends to harness the generalizability of survey and the depth of case study. However, little is known on how case survey has been applied in SE research, let alone guidelines on how to employ it properly. Aims: This article aims to provide a better understanding of how case survey has been applied in Software Engineering research. Method: To address this knowledge gap, we performed a systematic mapping study and analyzed 12 Software Engineering studies that used the case survey method. Results: Our findings show that these studies presented a heterogeneous understanding of the approach ranging from secondary studies to primary inquiries focused on a large number of instances of a research phenomenon. They have not applied the case survey method consistently as defined in the seminal methodological papers. Conclusions: We conclude that a set of clearly defined guidelines are needed on how to use case survey in SE research, to ensure the quality of the studies employing this approach and to provide a set of clearly defined criteria to evaluate such work.

description: Las festividades tradicionales han sido, durante siglos, espacios fundamentales para la transmisión de identidad, memoria y conocimientos ancestrales. Sin embargo, la globalización y el turismo han transformado muchas de estas celebraciones en espectáculos comerciales que priorizan la imagen visual sobre el significado cultural y espiritual. A través del análisis reflexivo, este estudio examina cómo la mercantilización ha fragmentado la tradición, reduciendo la participación comunitaria y desplazando el conocimiento oral. Asimismo, se reflexiona sobre la pérdida de autenticidad en los festivales modernos y los desafíos que enfrentan las comunidades para preservar sus prácticas sin caer en la explotación cultural. Finalmente, se proponen estrategias para equilibrar la preservación de la identidad con la adaptación al contexto actual.
Thermodynamics of de Sitter black holes with a conformally coupled scalar field

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

description: We study the thermodynamics of de Sitter black holes with a conformally coupled scalar field. The geometry is that of the ``lukewarm'' Reissner-Nordstrom-de Sitter black holes, with the event and cosmological horizons at the same temperature. This means that the region between the event and cosmological horizons can form a regular Euclidean instanton. The entropy is modified by the non-minimal coupling of the scalar field to the geometry, but can still be derived from the Euclidean action, provided suitable modifications are made to deal with the electrically charged case. We use the first law as derived from the isolated horizons formalism to compute the local horizon energies for the event and cosmological horizons.
