description: An experiment was carried out at the Agronomy Field Laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh in transplant Aman season 2008 to find out the effect of urea super granules (USG), prilled urea (PU) and poultry manure (PM) on the yield and yield attributes of transplant Aman rice varieties. Two transplant Aman rice varieties viz. BRRI dhan41 and BRRI dhan46 and ten levels of integrated nutrient management encompassing USG, PU and PM were tested following randomized complete block design with three replications. It was observed that variety BRRI dhan41 gave higher grain yield than BRRI dhan46. For fertilizer effect, the highest grain yield (5.17 t ha-1) was obtained from full dose of USG (1.8g) and other inorganic fertilizers, which was similar to that obtained from full dose of USG (1.8g) + PM at 2.5 t ha-1 followed by full dose of PU + PM at 2.5 t ha-1. The lowest grain yield was obtained in the control treatment. In case of interactions, the highest grain yield was obtained in BRRI dhan41×1.8g USG and other inorganic fertilizers which was similar to that of the same dose of USG with PM at 2.5 t ha-1 and the lowest yield was obtained in the control treatment. It was assessed that a considerable portion (31.25%) of PU nitrogen could be saved by using USG (1.8g) together with other inorganic fertilizers or with PM at 2.5 t ha-1.

description: In this work we parameterize the Equation of State of dense neutron star (NS) matter with four pressure parameters of $\{\hat{p}_1, \hat{p}_2, \hat{p}_3, \hat{p}_4\}$ and then set the combined constraints with the data of GW 170817 and the data of 6 Low Mass X-ray Binaries (LMXBs) with thermonuclear burst or alternatively the symmetry energy of the nuclear interaction. We find that the nuclear data effectively narrow down the possible range of $\hat{p}_1$, the gravitational wave data plays the leading role in bounding $\hat{p}_2$, and the LMXB data as well as the lower bound on maximal gravitational mass of non-rotating NSs govern the constraints on $\hat{p}_3$ and $\hat{p}_4$. Using posterior samples of pressure parameters and some universal relations, we further investigate how the current data sets can advance our understanding of tidal deformability ($Λ$), moment of inertia ($I$) and binding energy ($BE$) of NSs. For a canonical mass of $1.4M_\odot$, we have $I_{1.4} = {1.43}^{+0.30}_{-0.13} \times 10^{38}~{\rm kg \cdot m^2}$, $Λ_{1.4} = 390_{-210}^{+280}$ , $R_{1.4} = 11.8_{-0.7}^{+1.2}~{\rm km}$ and $BE_{1.4} = {0.16}^{+0.01}_{-0.02} M_{\odot}$ if the constraints from the nuclear data and the gravitational wave data have been jointly applied. For the joint analysis of gravitational wave data and the LMXB data, we have $I_{1.4} = {1.28}^{+0.15}_{-0.08} \times 10^{38}~{\rm kg \cdot m^2}$, $Λ_{1.4} = 220_{-90}^{+90}$, $R_{1.4} = 11.1_{-0.6}^{+0.7}~{\rm km}$ and $BE_{1.4} = {0.18}^{+0.01}_{-0.01} M_{\odot}$. These results suggest that the current constraints on $Λ$ and $R$ still suffer from significant systematic uncertainties, while $I_{1.4}$ and $BE_{1.4}$ are better constrained.

description: The present study was carried out to estimate phenotypic and genetic parameters of Red Chittagong Cattle (RCC) for growth traits. Means of birth weight (BW), three month weight (3MW), six month weight (6MW), weaning weight (WW), nine month weight (9MW) and yearling weight (YW) were 15.74, 31.48, 45.33, 57.00, 60.91 and 76.18 kg respectively. Sex significantly (p<0.001) differed BW of calves but did not differ (p>0.05) 3MW, 6MW, WW, 9MW and YW. BW, 6MW, WW, 9MW and YW did not vary significantly (p>0.05) on year of birth but varied significantly (p<0.01) on 3MW. Season of birth had significant difference on 3MW (p<0.001), 6MW (p<0.01) and WW (p<0.01) but had no significant difference (p>0.05) on BW, 9MW and YW. The growth rates at zero to six month (6MGR) and six to twelve month (12MGR) were 0.17 and 0.17 kg /d respectively. Growth rate in both stages had no significant effect (p>0.05) on sex and year of birth. 6MGR had no significant effect (p>0.05) on season of birth but had significant (p<0.05) effect on 12MGR. From single trait analyses heritability (h2) of BW, 3MW, 6MW, WW, 9MW, YW, 6MGR and 12MGR were 0.497, 0.468, 0.475, 0.467, 0.447, 0.478, 0.499 and 0.65, respectively, whereas from multi-trait analysis heritability (h2) of first four traits were 0.498, 0.456, 0.500 and 0.490, respectively. Genetic correlations of BW with 3MW, 6MW and WW were 0.23, 0.38, and 0.53, respectively, 3MW with 6MW and WW were 0.78 and 0.69, respectively and 6MW with WW was 0.76. Estimated heritability values were rather high in magnitude and indicate that these traits would likely respond to selection. Estimates of phenotypic correlations among the traits studied were very low to moderate with values ranging from -0.40 to 0.81, whereas magnitude of genetic correlation ranged from 0.23 to 0.78. It was concluded that these estimated parameters would help to understand the biology of the traits and in designing breeding programme for other indigenous cattle in general.

description: This study examines technical efficiency between Participatory & Non- Participatory farmers under Integrated Crop Management project (ICM) in the north-west region of Bangladesh. Sixty farmers of which 30 participatory & 30 non-participatory were selected following stratified random sampling technique from four villages under pirganj upazila in Thakurgaon district. ICM project participatory farmers received higher net returns than the non-participatory farmers from selected crop production. Participatory farmers were technically more efficient than non- participatory farmers. Getting membership status of non- participatory farmers was suggested to be an important factor in removing technical inefficiency.

description: A study evaluated the droppings disposal in layer farm and measures adapted to protect environmental pollution. Data were collected from 20 randomly selected layer farmers by a semi structured personal interview schedule from Sadar upazilla of Mymensingh. The independent variables such as age and gender of farmers, family size educational qualification occupation etc. and the dependent variables such as flock size, age of birds, feed consumption, egg and dropping production, cleaning of dropping etc. were studied. The feed consumption and droppings production/layer/day were 116.54 and 151.65g, respectively. Hen housed egg production was 80.55%. The cost for cleaning, price of droppings and profit on droppings sale/layer/day were Tk 0.01, 0.07 and 0.07 respectively. Half of farmer received maximum earning from droppings in winter. Most of the farmers had single storied house and used ceiling fan. Most of the farmers clean droppings in alternate day in the morning by the male worker using belcha to minimize environmental pollution and half of them used disinfectants. Average time required/day to clean droppings was 83.00 minute. Majority of the farmer consider cleaning of droppings to be a real problem for odour and gas (NH3) emission. Majority farmers stored droppings at high land as an open pit. Average distance between pit and shed was 58.33m. The highest proportion of the farmers used droppings in the crop field by composting while others sold to fisheries. Majority of the respondents opined that feed, droppings, dead birds, medicinal wastes and odour do not cause environmental pollution. Droppings disposal is a real problem for aesthetic, public safety and environmental point of view. Cleaning technique and tools needed to be modernized for efficient and cost effective cleaning. Standard method needed to be introduced for proper treatment and use of droppings to maximize its use and benefit.

description: Proving correctness of distributed or concurrent algorithms is a mind-challenging and complex process. Slight errors in the reasoning are difficult to find, calling for computer-checked proof systems. In order to build computer-checked proofs with usual tools, such as Coq or TLA+, having sequential specifications of all base objects that are used as building blocks in a given algorithm is a requisite to provide a modular proof built by composition. Alas, many concurrent objects do not have a sequential specification. This article describes a systematic method to transform any task, a specification method that captures concurrent one-shot distributed problems, into a sequential specification involving two calls, Set and Get. This transformation allows system designers to compose proofs, thus providing a framework for modular computer-checked proofs of algorithms designed using tasks and sequential objects as building blocks. The Moir&Anderson implementation of renaming using splitters is an iconic example of such algorithms designed by composition.

description: We present the extension of Rosenfeld's fundamental measure theory to lattice models by constructing a density functional for d-dimensional mixtures of parallel hard hypercubes on a simple hypercubic lattice. The one-dimensional case is exactly solvable and two cases must be distinguished: all the species with the same lebgth parity (additive mixture), and arbitrary length parity (nonadditive mixture). At the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that the latter case is considered. Based on the one-dimensional exact functional form, we propose the extension to higher dimensions by generalizing the zero-dimensional cavities method to lattice models. This assures the functional to have correct dimensional crossovers to any lower dimension, including the exact zero-dimensional limit. Some applications of the functional to particular systems are also shown.

On GLM curl cleaning for a first order reduction of the CCZ4 formulation of the Einstein field equations

description: In this paper we propose an extension of the generalized Lagrangian multiplier method (GLM) of Munz et al. (JCP 2000, JCP 2002), which was originally conceived for the numerical solution of the Maxwell and MHD equations with divergence-type involutions, to the case of hyperbolic PDE systems with curl-type involutions. The key idea here is to solve an augmented PDE system, in which curl errors propagate away via a Maxwell-type evolution system. The new approach is first presented on a simple model problem, in order to explain the basic ideas. Subsequently, we apply it to a strongly hyperbolic first order reduction of the CCZ4 formulation (FO-CCZ4) of the Einstein field equations of general relativity, which is endowed with 11 curl constraints. Several numerical examples, including the long-time evolution of a stable neutron star in anti-Cowling approximation, are presented in order to show the obtained improvements with respect to the standard formulation without special treatment of the curl involution constraints. The main advantages of the proposed GLM approach are its complete independence of the underlying numerical scheme and grid topology and its easy implementation into existing computer codes. However, this flexibility comes at the price of needing to add for each curl involution one additional 3 vector plus another scalar in the augmented system for homogeneous curl constraints, and even two additional scalars for non-homogeneous curl involutions. For the FO-CCZ4 system with 11 homogeneous curl involutions, this means that additional 44 evolution quantities need to be added.

description: We analytically model the non-linear effects induced by massive neutrinos on the total matter power spectrum using the halo model reaction framework of Cataneo et al. 2019. In this approach the halo model is used to determine the relative change to the matter power spectrum caused by new physics beyond the concordance cosmology. Using standard fitting functions for the halo abundance and the halo mass-concentration relation, the total matter power spectrum in the presence of massive neutrinos is predicted to percent-level accuracy, out to $k=10 \, h \, {\rm Mpc}^{-1}$. We find that refining the prescriptions for the halo properties using $N$-body simulations improves the recovered accuracy to better than 1%. This paper serves as another demonstration for how the halo model reaction framework, in combination with a single suite of standard $Λ$CDM simulations, can recover percent-level accurate predictions for beyond-$Λ$CDM matter power spectra, well into the non-linear regime.

description: Ultra-high energy cosmic rays create black holes in scenarios with extra dimensions and TeV-scale gravity. In particular, cosmic neutrinos will produce black holes deep in the atmosphere, initiating quasi-horizontal showers far above the standard model rate. At the Auger Observatory, hundreds of black hole events may be observed, providing evidence for extra dimensions and the first opportunity for experimental study of microscopic black holes. If no black holes are found, the fundamental Planck scale must be above 2 TeV for any number of extra dimensions.

description: Recent experimental work has realized a new insulating state of samarium nickelate (SmNiO$_3$), accessible in a reversible manner via high-density electron doping. To elucidate this behavior, we use the first-principles density functional theory (DFT) + U method to study the effect of added electrons on the crystal and electronic structure of SmNiO$_3$. First, we track the changes in the crystal and electronic structure with added electrons compensated by a uniform positive background charge at concentrations of $\frac{1}{4}$, $\frac{1}{2}$, $\frac{3}{4}$, and 1 electrons per Ni. The change in electron concentration does not rigidly shift the Fermi energy; rather, the added electrons localize on NiO$_6$ octahedra causing an on-site Mott transition and a change in the density of states resulting in a large gap between the occupied and unoccupied Ni $e_g$ orbitals at full doping. This evolution of the density of states is essentially unchanged when the added electrons are introduced by doping with interstitial H or Li ions.

description: We present the catalog of RR Lyrae stars from 2.4 square degrees of central parts of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). The photometric data were collected during four years of the OGLE-II microlensing survey. Photometry of each star was obtained using the Difference Image Analysis (DIA) method. The catalog contains 571 objects, including 458 RRab, 56 RRc variables, and 57 double mode RR Lyr stars (RRd). Additionally we attach a list of variables with periods between 0.18-0.26 days, which are probably delta Sct stars. Period, BVI photometry, astrometry, amplitude, and parameters of the Fourier decomposition of the I-band light curve are provided for each object. We also present the Petersen diagram for double mode pulsators. We found that the SMC RR Lyr stars are fairly uniformly distributed over the studied area, with no clear correlation to any location. The most preferred periods for RRab and RRc stars are 0.589 and 0.357 days, respectively. We noticed significant excess of stars with periods of about 0.29 days, which might be second-overtone RR Lyr stars (RRe). The mean extinction free magnitudes derived for RRab stars are 18.97, 19.45 and 19.73 mag for the I, V and B-band, respectively. All presented data, including individual BVI observations, are available from the OGLE Internet archive.

description: We consider the problem of calculating learning curves (i.e., average generalization performance) of Gaussian processes used for regression. On the basis of a simple expression for the generalization error, in terms of the eigenvalue decomposition of the covariance function, we derive a number of approximation schemes. We identify where these become exact, and compare with existing bounds on learning curves; the new approximations, which can be used for any input space dimension, generally get substantially closer to the truth. We also study possible improvements to our approximations. Finally, we use a simple exactly solvable learning scenario to show that there are limits of principle on the quality of approximations and bounds expressible solely in terms of the eigenvalue spectrum of the covariance function.

description: The Beam Dump Facility (BDF) is a project for a new facility at CERN dedicated to high intensity beam dump and fixed target experiments. Currently in its design phase, the first aim of the facility is to search for Light Dark Matter and Hidden Sector models with the Search for Hidden Particles (SHiP) experiment. At the core of the facility sits a dense target/dump, whose function is to absorb safely the 400 GeV/c Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) beam and to maximize the production of charm and beauty mesons. An average power of 300 kW will be deposited on the target, which will be subjected to unprecedented conditions in terms of temperature, structural loads and irradiation. In order to provide a representative validation of the target design, a prototype target has been designed, manufactured and tested under the SPS fixed-target proton beam during 2018, up to an average beam power of 50 kW, corresponding to 350 kJ per pulse. The present contribution details the target prototype design and experimental setup, as well as a first evaluation of the measurements performed during beam irradiation. The analysis of the collected data suggests that a representative reproduction of the operational conditions of the Beam Dump Facility target was achieved during the prototype tests, which will be complemented by a Post Irradiation Examination campaign during 2020.

description: For any compact oriented manifold $M$, we show that that the top degree multi-vector fields transverse to the zero section of $\wedge^{\text{top}}TM$ are classified, up to orientation preserving diffeomorphism, in terms of the topology of the arrangement of its zero locus and a finite number of numerical invariants. The group governing the infinitesimal deformations of such multi-vector fields is computed, and an explicit set of generators exhibited. For the spheres $S^n$, a correspondence between certain isotopy classes of multi-vector fields and classes of weighted signed trees is established.

The Price of Tiny Kinetic Mixing

description: We consider both "bottom-up" and "top-down" approaches to the origin of gauge kinetic mixing. We focus on the possibilities for obtaining kinetic mixings $ε$ which are consistent with experimental constraints and are much smaller than the naive estimates ($ε\sim 10^{-2} - 10^{-1}$) at the one-loop level. In the bottom-up approach, we consider the possible suppression from multi-loop processes. Indeed we argue that kinetic mixing through gravity alone, requires at least six loops and could be as large as $\sim 10^{-13}$. In the top-down approach we consider embedding the Standard Model and a $U(1)_X$ in a single grand-unified gauge group as well as the mixing between Abelian and non-Abelian gauge sectors.

subject: 130313 Teacher Education and Professional Development of Educators

description: This report summarizes a proposed pedagogy project which investigates the use of oral examination for summative assessment at the Department of Physics at Stockholm University (SU). Advantages and disadvantages are discussed, brought in context to existing literature, and an implementation plan is proposed.

The proposed project is based on the two courses FK5031 “Radiation Dosimetry” (7.5 ECTS) and FK8030 “Radiation Protection and Environmental Radiology” (7.5 ECTS) which are provided within the Medical Physics teaching programme at SU. The courses are currently offered in a traditional format consisting of lectures, tutorials and laboratory exercises. Currently, summative assessment is done at the end of the course, in the form of a 5-hour closed-book exam.

The exams typically yield poor outcome, where not seldom half of the students fail. Consequently, a course transformation is indicated. Course transformation encompasses multiple aspects of the course design, however, the main focus of this report is on summative assessment. Alternative assessment formats are briefly discussed as well and related to literature findings. The hypothesis is raised that oral examinations may spur students to deeper understanding, and that it may reduce the workload for the teacher.

It is concluded that the oral examination format is a promising option for summative assessment and should be tested in practice.

description: We analyze the impact on employment of the 2003/2005 CAP reform (decoupled payments) in Tuscany farms. We use data coming from census (2000 and 2010) and administrative archives, and apply propensity score-based methods to evaluate the average treatment effect of pay- ments on employment-related outcomes, taking into account that the assignment mechanism of payments was non-random. We further investigate impact heterogeneity using a generalized propensity-score matching methodology focussing on a subgroup of farms. Results show that there exists some effect of the payments on employment and that the impact is heterogeneous over the different amounts of payments.

description: We report on the measurement of the two-neutrino double-$β$ decay of $^{82}$Se performed for the first time with cryogenic calorimeters, in the framework of the CUPID-0~experiment. With an exposure of 9.95 kg$\times$yr of Zn$^{82}$Se, we determine the two-neutrino double-$β$ decay half-life of $^{82}$Se with an unprecedented precision level, $T_{1/2}^{2ν} = [8.60 \pm 0.03 \textrm{(stat.)}~^{+0.17}_{-0.10} \textrm{(syst.)}] \times 10^{19}~\textrm{yr}$. The very high signal-to-background ratio, along with the detailed reconstruction of the background sources allowed us to identify the single state dominance as the underlying mechanism of such process, demonstrating that the higher state dominance hypothesis is disfavored at the level of 5.5 $σ$.

description: A slowdown in agricultural growth, persisted during the 1990s and early 2000s has somewhat got reversed from 2004-05. But apprehensions continue on achieving the targeted 4 percent growth amidst decelerating productivity levels and persisting poverty. To what extent has public investment and subsidy impacted agricultural growth, productivity and rural poverty? This study focuses on this issue by quantifying the effectiveness of different types of public investments and subsidies and their relative impact on agricultural growth, and employment and reduction in rural poverty in India. Results obtained from 1981 to 2011 based on a structural econometric model are differentiated with their estimated coefficients to find relative total and marginal effects of investments and subsidies on farm income and rural poverty.

description: This article presents the derivation of the stress-energy tensor of a free scalar field with a general non-linear dispersion relation in curved spacetime. This dispersion relation is used as a phenomelogical description of the short distance structure of spacetime following the conventional approach of trans-Planckian modes in black hole physics and in cosmology. This stress-energy tensor is then used to discuss both the equation of state of trans-Planckian modes in cosmology and the magnitude of their backreaction during inflation. It is shown that gravitational waves of trans-Planckian momenta but subhorizon frequencies cannot account for the form of cosmic vacuum energy density observed at present, contrary to a recent claim. The backreaction effects during inflation are confirmed to be important and generic for those dispersion relations that are liable to induce changes in the power spectrum of metric fluctuations. Finally, it is shown that in pure de Sitter inflation there is no modification of the power spectrum except for a possible magnification of its overall amplitude independently of the dispersion relation.
