description: This study was exploratory in nature, with emphasis on initial purchases and not repeat purchases or long-term loyalties to either irradiated or non-irradiated produce. The investigation involved the actual sale of irradiated and non-irradiated apples to consumers. Limited information about the process was provided, and apples were sold at roadside stands. Prices for the irradiated apples were varied while the price for the non-irradiated apples was held constant. Of these 228 West-Central Missouri shoppers, 101 (44%) bought no irradiated apples, 86 (38%) bought only irradiated apples, and 41 (18%) bought some of both types. Results of probit regressions indicated three significant independent variables. There was an inverse relationship between the price of irradiated apples and the probability of purchasing irradiated apples. There was a positive relationship between the purchasers' educational level and the probability of purchasing irradiated apples. Predicted probabilities for belonging to categories in probit models were computed. Depending on particular equation specification, correctly placed were approximately 70 percent of the purchasers of the two categories-bought only non-irradiated apples, or bought some of both irradiated and non-irradiated apples or only irradiated apples. This study suggests that consumers may be interested in food irradiation as a possible alternative or supplement to current preservation techniques.

description: We discuss the case of massive gravitons and their relation with the cosmological constant, considered as an eigenvalue of a Sturm-Liouville problem. A variational approach with Gaussian trial wave functionals is used as a method to study such a problem. We approximate the equation to one loop in a Schwarzschild background and a zeta function regularization is involved to handle with divergences. The regularization is closely related to the subtraction procedure appearing in the computation of Casimir energy in a curved background. A renormalization procedure is introduced to remove the infinities together with a renormalization group equation.

description: The stress tensor for the quantized electromagnetic field is calculated in the region between a pair of dispersive, dielectric half-spaces. This generalizes the stress tensor for the Casimir energy to the case where the boundaries have finite reflectivity. We also include the effects of finite temperature. This allows us to discuss the circumstances under which the weak energy condition and the null energy condition can be violated in the presence of finite reflectivity and finite temperature.

description: We present a large family of {\it{exact}} solitary wave solutions of the one dimensional Gross-Pitaevskii equation, with time-varying scattering length and gain/loss, in both expulsive and regular parabolic confinement regimes. The consistency condition governing the soliton profiles is shown to map on to a {\it{linear}} Schrödinger eigenvalue problem, thereby enabling one to find analytically the effect of a wide variety of temporal variations in the control parameters, which are experimentally realizable. Corresponding to each solvable quantum mechanical system, one can identify a soliton configuration. These include soliton trains in close analogy to experimental observations of Strecker {\it{et al.,}} [Nature {\bf{417}{150}{2002}], spatio-temporal dynamics, solitons undergoing rapid amplification, collapse and revival of condensates and analytical expression of two-soliton bound states, to name a few.

description: Results of a comprehensive, new, ground-based mid-infrared imaging survey of the young stellar population of the Rho Ophiuchi cloud are presented. Data were acquired at the Palomar 5-m and at the Keck 10-m telescopes with the MIRLIN and LWS instruments, at 0.25 arcsec and 0.25 arcsec resolutions, respectively. Of 172 survey objects, 85 were detected. Among the 22 multiple systems observed, 15 were resolved and their individual component fluxes determined. A plot of the frequency distribution of the detected objects with SED spectral slope shows that YSOs spend ~400,000 yr in the Flat Spectrum phase, clearing out their remnant infall envelopes. Mid-infrared variability is found among a significant fraction of the surveyed objects, and is found to occur for all SED classes with optically thick disks. Large-amplitude near-infrared variability, also found for all SED classes with optically thick disks, seems to occur with somewhat higher frequency at the earlier evolutionary stages. Although a general trend of mid-infrared excess and NIR veiling exists proceeding through SED classes, with Class I objects generally exhibiting K-veilings > 1, Flat Spectrum objects with K-veilings > 0.58, and Class III objects with K-veilings =0, Class II objects exhibit the widest range of K-band veiling values, 0-4.5. However, the highly variable value of veiling that a single source can exhibit in any of the SED classes in which active disk accretion can take place is striking, and is direct observational evidence for highly time-variable accretion activity in disks. Finally, by comparing mid-infrared vs. near-infrared excesses in a subsample with well-determined effective temperatures and extinction values, disk clearing mechanisms are explored. The results are consistent with disk clearing proceeding from the inside-out.

The yield for p+p collisions is in general agreement with perturbative QCD calculations. The d+Au yield is in agreement with a calculation which models the Au nucleus as a Color Glass Condensate for forward particle production. The nuclear modification factor derived from the inclusive yields is qualitatively consistent with models which suppress the gluon density in nuclei.

description: We describe a first open-access database of experimentally investigated hybrid organic-inorganic materials with two-dimensional (2D) perovskite-like crystal structure. The database includes 515 compounds, containing 180 different organic cations, 10 metals (Pb, Sn, Bi, Cd, Cu, Fe, Ge, Mn, Pd, Sb) and 3 halogens (I, Br, Cl) known so far and will be regularly updated. The database contains a geometrical and crystal chemical analysis of the structures, which are useful to reveal quantitative structure-property relationships for this class of compounds. We show that the penetration depth of spacer organic cation into the inorganic layer and M-X-M bond angles increase in the number of inorganic layers (n). The machine learning model is developed and trained on the database, for the prediction of a band gap with accuracy within 0.1 eV. Another machine learning model is trained for the prediction of atomic partial charges with accuracy within 0.01 e. We show that the predicted values of band gaps decrease with an increase of the n and with an increase of M-X-M angles for single-layered perovskites. In general, the proposed database and machine learning models are shown to be useful tools for the rational design of new 2D hybrid perovskite materials.

description: Operating a modern power grid reliably in case of SCADA/EMS failure or amid difficult times like COVID-19 pandemic is a challenging task for grid operators. In [11], a PMU-based emergency generation dispatch scheme has been proposed to help the system operators with the supply and demand balancing; however, its realization highly relies on the control center infrastructure for computing and communication. This work, rather than using the on-premises server and dispatch communication system, proposes and implements a cloud-centric serverless architecture to ensure the operation continuity regardless of local infrastructure's availability and accessibility. Through its prototype implementation and evaluation at ISO New England, the solution has demonstrated two major advantages. Firstly, the cloud infrastructure is independent and fault-tolerant, providing grid monitoring and control capability even when EMS loses the corresponding functionality or when operators need to work remotely away from the control center. Secondly, the overall design is event-driven using serverless cloud services in response to the SCADA/EMS failure event. Thanks to "serverless", the burden of the server provisioning and maintenance can be avoided from the user side. The cost of using public cloud services for this solution is extremely low since it is architected and implemented based on the event-driven Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) model. This work also develops a comprehensive cyber security mechanism to comply with critical infrastructure requirements for the power grid, which can serve as an exemplary framework for other grid operators to secure their cloud services.

Clumpy tori around active galactic nuclei

Publisher: name: arXiv

description: We discuss the question whether the matter in dusty tori around active galactic nuclei has a smooth or a clumpy structure. Nenkova, Ivezic & Elitzur (2002) have argued that the lack of emission feature in the SEDs of type 1 AGN galaxies combined with a clear absorption feature in type 2 AGN can be explained if the circumnuclear dust is distributed in discrete clumps. Our aim is to verify this. We use multi-dimensional radiative transfer models of smooth and clumpy tori, and compare the SEDs of equivalent smooth and clumpy models. We find that the 10 micron emission feature of the clumpy models, when seen almost face-on, is not appreciably reduced compared to the equivalent smooth models. Some of the clumpy models have a weak or even absent 10 micron feature, but so do some of the smooth models. On the whole the SEDs of clumpy and smooth tori are similar, but some details are different. The absorption feature seen at edge-on inclinations appears to be less deep in the clumpy models than in the smooth models, and the average flux in the near-infrared regime is stronger in the clumpy models. Moreover, at these inclinations the clumpy models have a slightly wider SED. Whether these differences are unique enough to be used as a diagnostic for clumpiness of AGN tori is not yet clear.

description: Deep supervised neural networks trained to classify objects have emerged as popular models of computation in the primate ventral stream. These models represent information with a high-dimensional distributed population code, implying that inferotemporal (IT) responses are also too complex to interpret at the single-neuron level. We challenge this view by modelling neural responses to faces in the macaque IT with a deep unsupervised generative model, beta-VAE. Unlike deep classifiers, beta-VAE "disentangles" sensory data into interpretable latent factors, such as gender or hair length. We found a remarkable correspondence between the generative factors discovered by the model and those coded by single IT neurons. Moreover, we were able to reconstruct face images using the signals from just a handful of cells. This suggests that the ventral visual stream may be optimising the disentangling objective, producing a neural code that is low-dimensional and semantically interpretable at the single-unit level.
Dynamical Response of Fermi Condensate to Varying Magnetic Fields

description: We investigate the dynamical response of strongly interacting ultra-cold fermionic atoms near Feshbach resonance to varying magnetic fields. Following the experimental practices, we calculate the response of the atoms to oscillating and to linearly ramped magnetic fields respectively. For oscillating magnetic fields, depending on the frequencies and the amplitudes of the oscillations, the response of the pair excitation gap shows either linear or rich non-linear behaviour. In addition, both the spectral studies through the linear response theory and the time-domain simulations suggest the existence of a resonant frequency corresponding to the pair dissociation threshold. For linearly ramped magnetic fields, the response of the excitation gap shows damped oscillations. The final value of the excitation gap depends on the rate of the field sweep.

Biologically relevant physical studies of insulin-enhancing vanadium complexes
Creators: name: Liboiron, Barry D.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Investigations of the in vivo transport and accumulation of insulin-enhancing vanadium complexes are presented. Detailed spectroscopic studies of bis(maltolato)oxovanadium(IV) (BMOV), bis(ethylmaltolato)oxovanadium(IV) (BEOV) and the inorganic salt vanadyl sulfate (VOSO4) were carried out on in vitro solutions of serum proteins, and in vivo tissue samples from animals previously treated with a vanadium complex. Serum proteins apo-transferrin and albumin are both capable of effecting the decomposition of BMOV and BEOV under physiological conditions (pH 7.4, 0.16 M NaCl) to form vanadyl-protein adducts. Interactions of these complexes with the proteins were studied by continuous wave electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and difference ultraviolet spectroscopies. Apo-transferrin can bind up to two equivalents of BMOV at the Fe(III) binding sites, but (bi)carbonate (or another suitable synergistic anion) must be present for vanadyl binding to take place. The inability of maltolate to act in this role is demonstrated. Chelated vanadyl sources show no preference for either the N - or C-terminus binding site. Albumin binds BMOV only at the strong Cu(II) binding site; the presence of maltol imparts a site selectivity to the system in that BMOV will not bind at exposed carboxylates. Through consideration of the active equilbria in solution, formation of a ternary maltol-vanadyl-albumin complex is proposed and discussed in terms of reactivity differences between BMOV and VOS04 and transport of chelated vanadyl sources in the bloodstream. Pulsed EPR methods - electron spin echo envelope modulation (ESEEM) and hyperfine sublevel correlation (HYSCORE) - were used to study the in vivo coordination of vanadyl ions in rat kidney, liver and bone samples, which had been previously taken from animals chronically administered BEOV via drinking water. The chelated vanadyl source becomes ligated by amines in the kidney and liver, and by as many as three different phosphate groups in bone mineral. Model studies of the vanadyl-triphosphate and vanadylhydroxyapatite systems were also studied to gain structural insights into the in vivo coordination state of the vanadyl ions in bone. Both systems proved to be very good models of the in vivo complex. Based on the number and relative magnitudes of the isotropic and anisotropic ³¹P and ¹H coupling constants, a proposed solution structure, consistent with all spectroscopic data, is presented.

description: Quantum states induced by single-atomic impurities are at the frontier of physics and material science. While such states have been reported in high-temperature superconductors and dilute magnetic semiconductors, they are unexplored in topological magnets which can feature spin-orbit tunability. Here we use spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/S) to study the engineered quantum impurity in a topological magnet Co3Sn2S2. We find that each substituted In impurity introduces a striking localized bound state. Our systematic magnetization-polarized probe reveals that this bound state is spin-down polarized, in lock with a negative orbital magnetization. Moreover, the magnetic bound states of neighboring impurities interact to form quantized orbitals, exhibiting an intriguing spin-orbit splitting, analogous to the splitting of the topological fermion line. Our work collectively demonstrates the strong spin-orbit effect of the single-atomic impurity at the quantum level, suggesting that a nonmagnetic impurity can introduce spin-orbit coupled magnetic resonance in topological magnets.

description: The functional RG for the random field and random anisotropy O(N) sigma-models is studied to two loop. The ferromagnetic/disordered (F/D) transition fixed point is found to next order in d=4+epsilon for N > N_c (N_c=2.8347408 for random field, N_c=9.44121 for random anisotropy). For N < N_c the lower critical dimension plunges below d=4: we find two fixed points, one describing the quasi-ordered phase, the other is novel and describes the F/D transition. The lower critical dimension can be obtained in an (N_c-N)-expansion. The theory is also analyzed at large N and a glassy regime is found.

description: Food companies and analysts often need transportation rate data to explore market opportunities. In some cases, it may not be practical or necessary to obtain actual rates for all routes under consideration. This study provides analysis of truck rate patterns and alternative rate-estimating equations. The original objective was to provide shipping cost estimates for a national beef-marketing model involving 30 regions of the United States. The data set is 254 rates for refrigerated shipments of boxed fresh meat throughout the United States in 1988. Distance of the routes range from 50 to 2,923 miles. The average route is 1,181 miles, at a cost of $1,324 per load of $3.31 per cwt. The average cost per 100 miles was $0.28 per cwt. This simple average underestimates the short hauls and overestimates the long hauls. To improve on this simple procedure, both arithmetic and log equations were fitted to the data. Dummy variables were added to improve the estimates when shipping to different areas in the United States. Highest cost delivery for constant miles was for the areas including the Carolinas north through New England. The lowest cost delivery was the mid-section of the country. The estimating equations explained up to 79 percent of the actual cost. Most of the equations considered performed well in the 500 to 1,500-mile distance, but the quadratic and the double log functions, with dummy variables, performed the best over 2,500 miles. Obviously, these estimating methods are not sufficiently accurate (or necessary) for commercial transactions where only a few routes are under final consideration. Their main value should be to identify rate patterns and for market analysis and planning.

description: Deep learning technique has dramatically boosted the performance of face alignment algorithms. However, due to large variability and lack of samples, the alignment problem in unconstrained situations, \emph{e.g}\onedot large head poses, exaggerated expression, and uneven illumination, is still largely unsolved. In this paper, we explore the instincts and reasons behind our two proposals, \emph{i.e}\onedot Propagation Module and Focal Wing Loss, to tackle the problem. Concretely, we present a novel structure-infused face alignment algorithm based on heatmap regression via propagating landmark heatmaps to boundary heatmaps, which provide structure information for further attention map generation. Moreover, we propose a Focal Wing Loss for mining and emphasizing the difficult samples under in-the-wild condition. In addition, we adopt methods like CoordConv and Anti-aliased CNN from other fields that address the shift-variance problem of CNN for face alignment. When implementing extensive experiments on different benchmarks, \emph{i.e}\onedot WFLW, 300W, and COFW, our method outperforms state-of-the-arts by a significant margin. Our proposed approach achieves 4.05\% mean error on WFLW, 2.93\% mean error on 300W full-set, and 3.71\% mean error on COFW.

Phonon softening and double-well potential formation due to electron-phonon interaction in heavy-fermion systems

description: We investigate the periodic Anderson-Holstein model by using the dynamical mean-field theory combined with the exact diagonalization method. For the strong electron-phonon coupling $g\simg g_c$, the system shows an anomalous heavy-fermion behaviour which is accompanied by a large lattice fluctuation and an extreme phonon softening. We also calculate an effective potential for the ions and find that a simple harmonic potential for $g\siml g_c$ changes into a double-well potential for $g\simg g_c$. The effective pairing interaction between the conduction electrons shows a maximum at $g \approx g_c$ where the superconducting transition temperature is expected to be maximum.

description: Wind-driven outflows are observed around a broad range of accreting objects throughout the Universe, ranging from forming low-mass stars to super-massive black holes. We study the interaction between a central isotropic wind and an infalling, rotating, envelope, determining the steady-state cavity shape formed at their interface under the assumption of weak mixing. The shape of the resulting wind-blown cavity is elongated and self-similar, with a physical size determined by the ratio between wind ram pressure and envelope thermal pressure. We compute the growth of a warm turbulent mixing-layer between the shocked wind and the deflected envelope, and calculate the resultant broad line profile, under the assumption of a linear (Couette-type) velocity profile across the layer. We then test our model against the warm broad velocity component observed in CO $J$=16--15 by Herschel/HIFI in the protostar Serpens-Main SMM1. Given independent observational constraints on the temperature and density of the dust envelope around SMM1, we find an excellent match to all its observed properties (line profile, momentum, temperature) and to the SMM1 outflow cavity width for a physically reasonable set of parameters: a ratio of wind to infall mass-flux $\simeq 4\%$, a wind speed $v_{\rm w} \simeq 30$ km/s, an interstellar abundance of CO and H$_2$, and a turbulent entrainment efficiency consistent with laboratory experiments. The inferred ratio of ejection to disk accretion rate, $\simeq 6-20\%$, is in agreement with current disk wind theories. Thus, the model provides a new framework to reconcile the modest outflow cavity widths in protostars with the large observed flow velocities. Being self-similar, it is applicable over a broader range of astrophysical contexts as well.

description: We report on systematic experimental mapping of the transmission properties of two-dimensional silicon-on-insulator photonic crystal waveguides for a broad range of hole radii, slab thicknesses and waveguide lengths for both TE and TM polarizations. Detailed analysis of numerous spectral features allows a direct comparison of experimental data with 3D plane wave and finite-difference time-domain calculations. We find, counter-intuitively, that the bandwidth for low-loss propagation completely vanishes for structural parameters where the photonic band gap is maximized. Our results demonstrate that, in order to maximize the bandwidth of low-loss waveguiding, the hole radius must be significantly reduced. While the photonic band gap considerably narrows, the bandwidth of low-loss propagation in PhC waveguides is increased up to 125nm with losses as low as 8$\pm$2dB/cm.

description: This paper applies some recent developments in international trade theory to processed agricultural product markets. Theoretical results are derived showing that when such markets are characterized by imperfect competition, there may be a case for government intervention in the form of subsidies and tariffs. In order to provide some empirical background, a simulation model is used to assess the level of an optimal tariff on U.S. cheese imports. The implications of this analysis for the liberalization of agricultural trade are also considered.

First measurement of interference fragmentation on a transversely polarized hydrogen target

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)

description: The HERMES experiment has measured for the first time single target-spin asymmetries in semi-inclusive two-pion production using a transversely polarized hydrogen target. These asymmetries are related to the product of two unknowns, the transversity distribution function and the interference fragmentation function. In the invariant mass range 0.51 GeV < M_inv < 0.97 GeV the measured asymmetry deviates significantly from zero, indicating that two-pion semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering can be used to probe transversity.

description: Packaging potatoes in institutional size retort pouches is analyzed as a possible market outlet for Michigan potatoes. A two-pronged research approach involves estimation of unit costs of retort pouch potato products (RPP) and an assessment of the market potential for RPP in the food service industry. Break-even costs for a six-pound pouch is estimated to be $2.62 (44¢ per pound), which translates to a likely price disadvantage relative to competing products. Food service operators expressed general satisfaction with existing potato products and will not readily switch to use of retort pouch potato products.

description: We generalize the relation between discontinuities of scattering amplitudes and cut diagrams to cover sequential discontinuities (discontinuities of discontinuities) in arbitrary momentum channels. The new relations are derived using time-ordered perturbation theory, and hold at phase-space points where all cut momentum channels are simultaneously accessible. As part of this analysis, we explain how to compute sequential discontinuities as monodromies and explore the use of the monodromy group in characterizing the analytic properties of Feynman integrals. We carry out a number of cross-checks of our new formulas in polylogarithmic examples, in some cases to all loop orders.

description: In recent years, fresh fruits and vegetables have attracted attention as potential alternative agricultural enterprises. The produce section also has grown in importance in the supermarket industry. Yet, there is little known about the produce shelf space allocation process within supermarket chains. This research describes the organization of fresh produce marketing within retail supermarket chains. Implications are derived for market penetration by new produce suppliers, particularly growers of specialty produce items. Results are reported form personal interviews conducted with the person most responsible for produce merchandising within each of 17 supermarket chains operating in the Virginia area.

Is NGC 300 a pure exponential disk galaxy?

description: NGC 300 is a low-mass disk galaxy in the Sculptor group. In the literature, it has been identified as a pure exponential disk galaxy, as its luminosity profile could be well fitted with a single exponential law over many disk scale lengths (Type I). We investigate the stellar luminosity distribution of NGC 300 using $Hubble$ $Space$ $Telescope$ (HST) archive data, reaching farther and deeper than any other previous studies. Color magnitude diagrams show a significant population of old red giant branch (RGB) stars in all fields out to $R\sim19$ kpc ($32'$), as well as younger populations in the inner regions. We construct the density profiles of the young, intermediate-aged, and old stellar populations. We find two clear breaks in the density profiles of the old RGB and intermediate-aged stars: one down-bending (Type II) at $R\sim5.9$ kpc, and another up-bending (Type III) at $R\sim8.3$ kpc. Moreover, the old RGB stars exhibit a negative radial color gradient with an up-bending at $R\sim8$~kpc, beyond which the stellar populations are uniformly old ($>$7~Gyr) and metal-poor ($\rm[Fe/H] = -1.6^{+0.2}_{-0.4}$ dex). The outer stellar component at $R\gtrapprox8$ kpc is, therefore, well separated from the inner disk in terms of the stellar density and stellar populations. While our results cast doubt on the currently established wisdom that NGC\,300 is a pure exponential disk galaxy, a more detailed survey should be carried out to identify the outskirts as either a disk or a stellar halo.
