description: The interplay between band topology and magnetic order could generate a variety of time-reversal-breaking gapped topological phases with exotic topological quantization phenomena, such as quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) insulators and axion insulators (AxI). Here by combining analytic models and first-principles calculations, we predict QAH and AxI phases can be realized in thin film of an intrinsic antiferromagnetic van der Waal material Mn$_2$Bi$_2$Te$_5$. The phase transition between QAH and AxI is tuned by the layer magnetization, which would provide a promising platform for chiral superconducting phases. We further present a simple and unified continuum model that captures the magnetic topological features, and is generic for Mn$_2$Bi$_2$Te$_5$ and MnBi$_2$Te$_4$ family materials.

description: Pediatric asthma emergency department (ED) visits and repeat visits place a substantial burden on healthcare. National and provincial level studies demonstrate geographic variation in asthma ED visits and links to marginalization, but preclude translation into practical targeting of healthcare delivery. It is important to understand the relationship between pediatric asthma ED visits and marginalization at a more granular level. To map the city-level geographic variation in pediatric asthma ED visit and re-visit rates at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO) in Ottawa, Canada and the relationship with marginalization. We performed a single center retrospective cohort study of children ages 1–17 with one or more ED visits for asthma at the CHEO in Ottawa. Using postal codes, we linked patients to census tracts. Per census tract, we mapped pediatric asthma ED visit and re-visit rates within one year and identified overlap with the Ontario Marginalization Index. Of 1,620 children with an index ED visit, 18.5% had a repeat ED visit. We identified 10 hot spot census tracts each for pediatric asthma ED visit and re-visit rates. We identified an overlap between urban hot spots and areas with high ethnic concentration or low dependency. At a granular, city-wide level, pediatric asthma ED visit and re-visit rates are heterogeneous. Urban hot spots, in contrast to rural, have more overlap with marginalization, especially ethnic concentration. These methods can be used in other jurisdictions to inform practical community strategies for geographically-targeted prevention of pediatric asthma-related ED visits in vulnerable areas.

Vacuum Geometry of the N=2 Wess-Zumino Model

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We give a mathematically rigorous construction of the moduli space and vacuum geometry of a class of quantum field theories which are N=2 supersymmetric Wess-Zumino models on a cylinder. These theories have been proven to exist in the sense of constructive quantum field theory, and they also satisfy the assumptions used by Vafa and Cecotti in their study of the geometry of ground states. Since its inception, the Vafa-Cecotti theory of topological-antitopological fusion, or tt* geometry, has proven to be a powerful tool for calculations of exact quantum string amplitudes. However, tt* geometry postulates the existence of certain vector bundles and holomorphic sections built from the ground states. Our purpose in the present article is to give a mathematical proof that this postulate is valid within the context of the two-dimensional N=2 supersymmetric Wess-Zumino models. We also give a simpler proof in the case of holomorphic quantum mechanics.

description: Addressing the equity gap as an inequity in postsecondary education and acknowledging that educational inequities are directly linked to a racialized education is essential to the advancement of Black student success. Research has demonstrated that the relationship between racial identity and academic self-concept is a predictor in increasing Black students’ educational outcomes including grade point average, retention, and graduation rates. Although many studies have focused on the experience of Black students in predominantly White institutions (PWIs) and historically Black college and universities (HBCUs), there are far fewer studies on the cocurricular experience of Black students at 2-year institutions. The purpose of this two-phase, sequential, explanatory mixed methods study was to explore racial identification through the Multidimensional Inventory of Black Identity (MIBI) and Academic Self-Concept Scale (ASCS) for Black students who participated in Umoja programs at California community colleges. Three research questions guided this study: (a) how Black students identify in terms of their responses to the MIBI and ASCS, (b) how Black students describe their participation in the Umoja program and its impact on their racial identity development and academic self-concept, and (c) to what extent do the qualitative results confirm the quantitative results. In the first phase, 54 Black students completed the survey measuring their racial identity and academic self-concept. The quantitative data show participants primarily identify with the MIBI private regard subscale (M = 6.44) and a moderate ASC score (M = 47.92). In the second phase of the study, 12 Black students were interviewed. Analysis of the qualitative findings yielded four themes: (a) Culture of Affirmation, (b) Representation Matters, (c) Academic Self-Concept Development, and (d) the Complexity of Blackness. Interpretations of these findings have implications for policy, theory, practice, and future research.

description: [Objectives] To explore the effect of sodium selenite-chitosan compound preservative on storability of kumquats. [Methods] Under the condition of room temperature, fresh kumquats were coated with different concentrations of sodium selenite-chitosan compound preservative, respectively. [Results] Sodium selenite-chitosan compound preservative reduced the weight loss rate, delayed the decline of vitamin C, soluble solids, titratable acid and GSH contents, slowed down the accumulation of MDA, inhibited the increase of PPO activity, and increased to a certain extent the activity of SOD in fresh kumquats. [Conclusions] Sodium selenite-chitosan compound preservative maintained the quality and prolonged the shelf life of kumquats. The preservation effect of compound preservative composed of 4 mg/L sodium selenite and 8 g/L chitosan was the best.

description: We have studied the high-pressure iron bcc to hcp phase transition by simultaneous X-ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism (XMCD) and X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS) with an X-ray dispersive spectrometer. The combination of the two techniques allows us to obtain simultaneously information on both the structure and the magnetic state of Iron under pressure. The magnetic and structural transitions simultaneously observed are sharp. Both are of first order in agreement with theoretical prediction. The pressure domain of the transition observed (2.4 $\pm$ 0.2 GPa) is narrower than that usually cited in the literature (8 GPa). Our data indicate that the magnetic transition slightly precedes the structural one, suggesting that the origin of the instability of the bcc phase in iron with increasing pressure is to be attributed to the effect of pressure on magnetism as predicted by spin-polarized full potential total energy calculations.

description: With the improvement of living standards, people pay more attention to the agricultural products with health protection function, and the selenium-rich agricultural products attract more and more consumers. The main biological role of selenium is to resist oxidation and inflammatory response, mainly focusing on resisting aging, preventing cardiovascular disease, protecting eyesight, counteracting or destroying the toxic properties, preventing cancer and thyroid disease. In most areas of China, there is a widespread shortage of selenium, thus producing selenium-rich agricultural products to provide natural selenium-rich health food to the areas in need of selenium, has gradually become a new hot spot of China's health food industry, but high content of selenium in food is detrimental to human body, even leads to selenium intoxication, and artificially adding inorganic selenium is difficult to guarantee that the selenium content of agricultural products is not exceeded. According to human body's daily demand for selenium in dietetics and the content of selenium in agricultural products in the Chinese food composition table, we put forward the recommendations on the standard of selenium in agricultural products, in order to provide the basis for China to formulate the health standard of selenium content in selenium-rich agricultural products.

description: In high performance computing, researchers try to optimize the CPU Scheduling algorithms, for faster and efficient working of computers. But a process needs both CPU bound and I/O bound for completion of its execution. With modernization of computers the speed of processor, hard-disk, and I/O devices increases gradually. Still the data access speed of hard-disk is much less than the speed of the processor. So when processor receives a data from secondary memory it executes immediately and again it have to wait for receiving another data. So the slowness of the hard-disk becomes a bottleneck in the performance of processor. Researchers try to develop and optimize the traditional disk scheduling algorithms for faster data transfer to and from secondary data storage devices. In this paper we try to evolve an optimized scheduling algorithm by reducing the seek time, the rotational latency, and the data transfer time in runtime. This algorithm has the feature to manage the bad-sectors of the hard-disk. It also attempts to reduce power consumption and heat reduction by minimizing bad sector reading time.

description: The possibility of accurately identifying thermal material parameters on the basis of a simple tension test is presented, using a parameter identification framework for thermo-mechanically coupled material models on the basis of full field displacement and temperature field measurements. Main objective is to show the impact of the material model formulation on the results of such an identification with respect to accuracy and uniqueness of the result. To do so, and as a proof of concept, the data of two different experiments is used. One experiment including cooling of the specimen, due to ambient temperature, and one without specimen cooling. The main constitutive relations of two basic material models are summarised (associated and non-associated plasticity), whereas both models are extended so as to introduce an additional material parameter for the thermodynamically consistent scaling of dissipated energy. The chosen models are subjected to two parameter identifications each, using the data of either experiment and focusing on the determination of thermal material parameters. The influence of the predicted dissipated energy of the models on the identification process is investigated showing that a specific material model formulation must be chosen carefully. The material model with associated evolution equations used within this work does neither allow a unique identification result, nor is any of the solutions for the underlying material parameters close to literature values. In contrast to that, a stable, that is locally unique, re-identification of the literature values is possible for the boundary problem at hand if the model with non-associated evolution equation is used and if cooling is included in the experimental data.

description: Based on the rural economic data pertaining to the development of rural finance, the growth of agricultural economy and farmers' income in Jiangxi Province during the period 1990-2009, we conduct empirical research on the impact of development of rural finance on the growth of agricultural economy and farmers' income, using the ADF test method, the Granger causality test, and regression analysis. The results show that the development of rural finance in Jiangxi Province has a significant positive effect on the growth of rural economy and farmers' income. When the ending balance of agricultural loans increases by 1 unit, the agricultural added value will increase by 0.3671 units; when the ending balance of agricultural loans increases by 1 unit, farmers' income will increase by 0.597 5 units, indicating that the development of rural finance plays a significant role in promoting the per capita net income of farmers. Finally we propose to increase agricultural credit efforts in the financial institutions, establish and improve the agricultural credit management system.

description: Of all complex fluids, it is probably the rheology of polymers we understand best. In-depth insight into the entanglement and reptation of individual polymers allows us to predict for instance the shear-thinning rheology and the behaviour in virtually any flow situation of practical importance. The situation is markedly different when we move from passive to active polymers where the coupling of filament activity, hydrodynamic interactions, and conformations open the way to a plethora of novel structural and dynamical features. Here we experimentally study the rheology of long, slender and entangled living worms (Tubifex tubifex) and propose this system as a new type of active polymer. Its level of activity can be controlled by changing the temperature or by adding small amounts of alcohol to make the worms temporarily inactive. We find that (i) shear thinning is reduced by activity, (ii) the characteristic shear rate for the onset of shear-thinning is given by the time scale of the activity, and (iii) the low shear viscosity as a function of concentration shows a very different scaling from that of regular polymers. Our study paves the way towards a new research field of `living polymers'.

description: We studied the relationship between soil fertility indicator and angelica yield and quality by the methods of correlation analysis and path analysis. The results showed that, in Yunnan Province, the content of ferulic acid (major indicator of angelica quality) is 1.5-2.5 mg/g and single plant fresh weight (major indicator of yield) is 60-250 g. The content of angelica ferulic acid and angelica single plant fresh weight are positively correlated with the content of total N, quick-acting K, organic matter, whereas negatively correlated with the content of quick-acting P. It is shown that the most direct factor that influence the content of the angelica ferulic acid is the quick-acting K, and the least direct factor is organic matter; the most direct factor that influences the single plant fresh weight of angelica is the total N, while the least direct factor is the quick-acting P. In conclusion, the soil fertility indicators that have great influence on quality and yield of angelica are the quick-acting K, total N, quick-acting P and organic matter.

description: Dispersive effects during long wave run-up on a plane beach are studied. We take an advantage of experimental data collection of different wave types (single pulses, sinusoidal waves, bi-harmonic waves, and frequency modulated wave trains) and simulate their run-up using two models: (i) non-dispersive nonlinear shallow water theory and (ii) dispersive Boussinesq type model based on the modified Peregrine system. It is shown, that for long positive pulses, dispersive effects are not so important and nonlinear shallow water theory can be used. However, for periodic sinusoidal and bi-harmonic pulses of the same period, the dispersive effects result in significant wave transformation during its propagation, but do not have a strong impact on its maximal run-up height. Overall, for maximum wave run-up height, we could not find a preference of dispersive model against the nondispersive one, and, therefore, suggest using nonlinear shallow water model for long wave run-up height estimation.

A Critical Review on the Electromigration Effect, the Electroplastic Effect, and Perspectives on the Effects of Electric Current Upon Alloy Phase Stability

description: The electronic interconnections in the state-of-the-art integrated circuit manufacturing have been scaled down to the micron or sub-micron scale. This results in a dramatic increase in the current density passing through interconnections, which means that the electromigration (EM) effect plays a significant role in the reliability of products. Although thorough studies and reviews of EM effects have been continuously conducted in the past 60 years, some parts of EM theories lack clear elucidation of the electric current-induced non-directional effects, including electric current-induced phase equilibrium changes. This review article is intended to provide a broad picture of electric current-induced lattice stability changes and to summarize the existing literature on EM-related phenomena, EM-related theoretical models, and relevant effects of the electroplastic (EP) effect in order to lead to a better understanding of electric current-induced effects on materials. This article also posits that EM is either part of the EP effect or shares the intrinsic electric current-induced plastic deformation associated with the EP effect. This concept appears to contribute to the missing parts of the EM theories.

description: Food waste is a global issue that is becoming bigger by the day, with 2.1 billion tonnes of municipal waste in 2023 estimated to grow to 3.8 billion tonnes by 2050. Of this waste, 1.3 billion tonnes contributes to food waste, with 36 million tonnes produced by Pakistan [1]. The direct dumping of organic wastes is harmful to the environment because it can result in methane emissions and also cause economic losses to industries [2]. This waste is known to be abundant in natural pigments [3,4], which could be extracted for economic benefit. Mango peels were selected due to their local abundance, vibrant hue, and inedibility.

description: With high certainty, extreme weather events will intensify in their impact within the next 10 years due to climate change-induced increases in hazard probability of occurrence and simultaneous increases in socio-economic vulnerability. Data from previous mega-disasters show that losses from disruptions of critical services surpass the value of direct damages in the exposed areas because critical infrastructures [CI] are increasingly (inter-) dependent. Local events may have global impacts. Systemic criticality, which describes the relevance of a critical infrastructure due to its positioning within the system, needs to be addressed to reduce the likelihood of cascading effects. This paper presents novel approaches to operationalise and assess systemic criticality. Firstly, the paper introduces systemic cascade potential as a measurement of systemic criticality. It takes the relevance of a sector and the relevance of its interdependencies into account to generate a relative value of systemic importance for a CI sector. Secondly, an exemplary sectoral assessment of the road network allows reflecting the spatial manifestation of the first level of cascading effects. It analyses the impact of traffic interruptions on the accessibility of critical facilities to point out the systemically most critical segments of the municipal road network. To further operationalise the spatial dimension of criticality, a normative assertion determining the worthiness of protection of system components is required. A nationwide spatial flood protection plan incorporates this aspect in Germany for the first time. Its formal approval process was initiated in February 2020.

description: Energy and climate policies are usually seen as measures to internalize externalities. However, as a side effect, these policies redistribute wealth between consumers and producers, and within these groups. While redistribution is seldom the focus of the academic literature in energy economics, it plays a central role in real world policy debates. This paper compares the redistribution effects of two major electricity policies: support schemes for renewable energy sources, and CO2 pricing. We find that the redistribution effects of both policies are large, and they work in opposed directions: while renewables support transfers wealth from producers to consumers, carbon pricing does the opposite. More specifically, we show that moderate amounts of wind subsidies leave consumers better off even if they bear the costs of subsidies. In the case of CO2 pricing, we find that while suppliers as a whole benefit even without free allocation of emission certificates, large amounts of producer surplus are redistributed between different types of producers. These findings are derived from an analytical model of electricity markets, and a calibrated numerical model of the Northwestern European integrated power system. Our findings imply that a society with a preference for avoiding large redistribution might prefer a mix of policies, even if CO2 pricing alone is the first best climate policy in terms of allocative efficiency.

description: Understanding the behavior of an impurity strongly interacting with a Fermi sea is a long-standing challenge in many-body physics. When the interactions are short-ranged, two vastly different ground states exist: a polaron quasiparticle and a molecule dressed by the majority atoms. In the single-impurity limit, it is predicted that at a critical interaction strength, a first-order transition occurs between these two states. Experiments, however, are always conducted in the finite temperature and impurity density regime. The fate of the polaron-to-molecule transition under these conditions, where the statistics of quantum impurities and thermal effects become relevant, is still unknown. Here, we address this question experimentally and theoretically. Our experiments are performed with a spin-imbalanced ultracold Fermi gas with tunable interactions. Utilizing a novel Raman spectroscopy combined with a high-sensitivity fluorescence detection technique, we isolate the quasiparticle contribution and extract the polaron energy, spectral weight, and the contact parameter. As the interaction strength is increased, we observe a continuous variation of all observables, in particular a smooth reduction of the quasiparticle weight as it goes to zero beyond the transition point. Our observation is in good agreement with a theoretical model where polaron and molecule quasiparticle states are thermally occupied according to their quantum statistics. At the experimental conditions, polaron states are hence populated even at interactions where the molecule is the ground state and vice versa. The emerging physical picture is thus that of a smooth transition between polarons and molecules and a coexistence of both in the region around the expected transition.

description: We present a new 3-brane solution to Einstein's equations in (1+5)-spacetime with a negative bulk cosmological constant. This solution is a stringlike defect solution with decreasing scale function approaching a finite non-zero value in the radial infinity. It is shown that all local fields are localized on the brane only through the gravitational interaction.

 Diagnosis. Rostrum triangular, subapical spines absent or, if present, obsolescent, lateral margins straight. Carapace with epigastric ridge armed with 5 spines; anterior branchial margin with 3 spines; anterior protogastric ridge not interrupted medially, without scale behind median epigastric spine; anterior mesogastric and metagastric ridges not medially interrupted. Anterior margin of thoracic sternite 3 nearly transverse with median and lateral projections. Antennule article 1 with 5 distal spines; distomesial spine minute. Antennal article 2 with distolateral spine longer than distomesial; article 3 with minute distomesial spine. Flexor margin of Mxp3 merus with 2 prominent spines. P2–4 dactylus extensor margin without upright spines at bases of movable spines.
 Distribution. Only known from the type locality, Andaman Sea, at 77 m.
 Remarks. The species is only known by the holotype male and it is characterized by the presence of 5 epigastric spines, 1 small hepatic spine, and 3 spines on the anterior branchial margin. The closest relative is P. ikedai (Miyake & Baba, 1965) from Bonin Islands, Japan. However, they can be easily differentiated by the shape of thoracic sternite 3, with the anterior margin nearly transverse, and median and lateral projections, in P. bengalensis, whereas the sternite has the anterior margin convex, with feeble median excavation in P. ikedai.

description: Detailed behavior of the magnetoresistance (MR) is studied in lightly doped antiferromagnetic La_{1.99}Sr_{0.01}CuO_{4}, where, thanks to the weak ferromagnetic moment due to spin canting, the antiferromagnetic (AF) domain structure can be manipulated by the magnetic field. The MR behavior demonstrates that CuO_2 planes indeed contain anti-phase AF domain boundaries in which charges are confined, forming anti-phase stripes. The data suggest that a high magnetic field turns the anti-phase stripes into in-phase stripes, and the latter appear to give better conduction than the former, which challenges the notion that the anti-phase character of stripes facilitates charge motion.

description: Supersymmetric non-linear sigma-models are described by a field dependent Kaehler metric determining the kinetic terms. In general it is not guaranteed that this metric is always invertible. Our aim is to investigate the symmetry structure of supersymmetric models in four dimensional space-time in which metric singularities occur. For this purpose we study a simple anomaly-free extension of the supersymmetric CP^1 model from a classical point of view. We show that the metric singularities can be regularized by the addition of a soft supersymmetry-breaking mass parameter.

description: This research estimates the impact of climate on European agriculture using a continental scale Ricardian analysis. Data on climate, soil, geography and regional socio-economic characteristics were matched for 37 612 individual farms across the EU-15. Farmland values across Europe are sensitive to climate. Even with the adaptation captured by the Ricardian technique, farms in Southern Europe are predicted to suffer sizeable losses (8% -13% per degree Celsius) from warming. In contrast, agriculture in the rest of Europe is likely to see only mixed impacts. Increases (decreases) in rain will increase (decrease) average farm values by 3% per centiliter of precipitation. Aggregate impacts by 2100 vary depending on the climate model scenario from a loss of 8% in a mild scenario to a loss of 44% in a harsh scenario.

description: The economic burden of severe asthma (SA) in children is poorly described. We aimed to determine the healthcare costs of SA in children for the French national health insurance (NHI). Children (6-18 years of age) with a well-defined population of children with physician-confirmed diagnoses of SA or non-SA (NSA) were identified. Direct and indirect expenditures related to asthma and associated co-morbidities in the previous six months were determined, based on a physician-guided parental questionnaire and confirmed by medical records. The costs for the French NHI were assessed per child over a six month period. Data from 74 children, including 48 with SA (22 requiring omalizumab) and 26 with NSA, were analyzed. The global cost of SA was €3,982 per child over a six-month period, including €3,821 direct costs and €161.9 indirect costs. The global cost was €6,716 (4,220) for those requiring omalizumab vs. €1,669 (3,108) for those who did not (p p p The economic burden of SA in children for the French NHI is substantial and mainly driven by the most severe children requiring biologics.
