description: The turbulence of capillary waves on the surface of a ferrofluid with a high permeability in a horizontal magnetic field is considered in the framework of a one-dimensional weakly nonlinear model. In the limit of a strong magnetic field, the surface waves under study can propagate without distortions along or against the direction of external field, i.e., similar to Alfvén waves in a perfectly conducting fluid. The interaction of counter-propagating nonlinear waves leads to the development of wave turbulence on the surface of the liquid. The computational data show that the spectrum of turbulence is divided into two parts: a low-frequency dispersionless region, where the magnetic forces dominate and a high-frequency dispersive one, in which the influence of capillary forces becomes significant. In the first region, the spectrum of the surface elevation has the same exponent in $k$ and $ω$ domains and its value is close to $-3.5$, what is in a good agreement with the estimation obtained from the dimensional analysis of the weak turbulence spectra. At the high frequencies, the computed spatial spectrum of the surface waves is close to $k^{-5/2}$ which corresponds to $ω^{-5/3}$ in terms of the frequency. This spectrum does not coincide with the Zakharov-Filonenko spectrum obtained for pure capillary waves. A possible explanation of this fact is in the influence of coherent structures (like shock waves) usually arising in media with weak dispersion.

description: Voronoi game is a simple geometric model for competitive facility location problem that is done between two players in continues space. In some previous researches the problem has been studied with Euclidean distance. In this paper a new version of one-round Voronoi game is presented in which multiplicatively weighted Voronoi diagram is used. It is showed in this paper when two players have same points, there is a winning strategy for one of the players. Also we discuss on one dimensional spaces

description: The low-energy properties of two-dimensional ensembles of dipole-coupled magnetic nanoparticles are studied as function of structural disorder and particle coverage. Already small deviations from a square particle arrangement lift the degeneracies of the microvortex magnetic configuration, and result in a strongly noncollinear magnetic order of the particle ensemble. The energy distribution of metastable states is determined. For a low degree of disorder a strongly asymmetric shape with a pronounced peak of the ground state energy results. In contrast, for a strong disorder a Gaussian-like distribution is obtained. The average dipole coupling energy $\bar E_\mathrm{dip}$ decreases with increasing structural disorder. The role of vacancies has been studied for a square particle array by determining the angular distribution of the preferred microvortex angle as function of the vacancy concentration. Indications for a preferred angular direction along the axial as well as along the diagonal directions of the square array are revealed. A corresponding investigation for disturbed square arrays results in a different angular distribution. The effect of dipole-quadrupole corrections resulting from the finite size of the particles is quantified.

Unattainability of a purely topological criterion for the existence of a phase transition for non-confining potentials
Creators: name: Kastner, Michael
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: The relation between thermodynamic phase transitions in classical systems and topology changes in their configuration space is discussed for a one-dimensional, analytically tractable solid-on-solid model. The topology of a certain family of submanifolds of configuration space is investigated, corroborating the hypothesis that, in general, a change of the topology within this family is a necessary condition in order to observe a phase transition. Considering two slightly differing versions of this solid-on-solid model, one showing a phase transition in the thermodynamic limit, the other not, we find that the difference in the ``quality'' or ``strength'' of this topology change appears to be insignificant. This example indicates the unattainability of a condition of exclusively topological nature which is sufficient as to guarantee the occurrence of a phase transition in systems with non-confining potentials.

description: Spinofenestella sp. 1 (Fig. 6 A-E; Table 12)
MATERIAL EXAMINED. — 4-15, 5-12-1, 7-4, 9-1-2, 9-4, 9-5-8, 9-5-10, 17-1, 23-3-1.
OCCURRENCE. — Lakaftari: central Iran, Jamal Formation, Middle Permian.
DESCRIPTION
Micrometric formula: 15-20/13-16//19-26. Reticulated colonies with straight or slightly undulating branches, joined by dissepiments. Bifurcation common. Autozooecia arranged in 2 alternating rows on branches.Apertures circular, containing 12-13 small nodes and 8 septa in the peristome, spaced 2 per length of a fenestrule. Shape of fenestrules varying from oval to slightly rectangular. Keel low, carrying single row of large and widely spaced nodes. Internal granular skeleton thick, well developed, continuous with obverse keel, nodes, peristome and across dissepiments. Outer lamellar skeleton sometimes extremely thick. Microacanthostyles abundant on the obverse surface; usually absent on reverse side, having distinct narrow hyaline cores and wide laminated sheaths, 10-30 µm in diameter.
INTERIOR DESCRIPTION
Autozooecia triangular in a middle tangential section, low and elongated, with well developed vestibule; aperture positioned at distal to distal-abaxial end of chamber. Superior hemisepta short; inferior hemisepta absent. Apertures often closed by terminal diaphragms.
COMPARISON
 The present material is similar to Fenestella otae Sakagami, 1964 from the Lower Permian of Japan (Parafusulina kaerimizensis -zone). Spinofenestella sp. 1 differs in having thicker branches (0.31-0.47 vs. 0.23-0.32 mm in F. otae), and thinner dissepiments (0.20-0.30 vs. 0.228 -0.368 mm in F.otae). It is also similar to Spinofenestella popovi (Nekhoroshev, 1959) from the Upper Permian of the Northern Urals (Morozova 1981). The two species differ in fenestrule length (0.80-0.90 mm in S. popovi vs. 0.42-0.58 mm in Spinofenestella sp. 1).
REMARK
 Both species of Spinofenestella described here contain eight regular septa in their apertures. These septa are similar to those described by Engel (1975) for his new family Septatoporidae including the single genus Septatopora. However, similar structures occur in many fenestrate bryozoans, but are often destroyed by weathering. Furthermore, species placed by Engel (1975) in his family reveal different internal morphologies.

description: Among some of the current uses of the DC Superconducting QUantum Interference Devices (SQUIDs) are qubit-readouts and sensors for probing properties of quantum materials. We present a rather unique gradiometric niobium SQUID design with state-of-the-art sensitivity in the femto-Tesla range which can be easily tuned to specific readout requirements. The sensor is a next generation of the fractional SQUIDs with tightly optimized input coil and a combination of all measures known for restraining parasitic resonances and other detrimental effects. Our design combines the practical usefulness of well-defined pickup loops for superior imaging kernel and tunable-probing applications with the fractionalization approach to reduce undesired inductances. In addition, our modeling predicts small dimensions for these planar sensors. These features make them of high relevance for material studies and for detection of magnetic fields in small volumes, e.g. as part of a cryogenic scanning quantum imaging apparatus for efficient diagnostics and quantum device readouts. This manuscript will benefit scientists and engineers working on quantum computing technologies by clarifying potential general misconceptions about DC SQUID optimization alongside the introduction of the novel flexible compact DC SQUID design.

description: In higher-dimensional supersymmetric theories gauge couplings of the effective four-dimensional theory are determined by expectation values of scalar fields. We find that at temperatures above a critical temperature $T_*$, which depends on the supersymmetry breaking mass scales, gauge couplings decrease like $T^{-\a}$, $\a > 1$. This has important cosmological consequences. In particular it leads to a relic gravitino density which becomes independent of the reheating temperature for $T_R > T_*$. For small gravitino masses, $m_{3/2} \ll m_{\gl}$, the mass density of stable gravitinos is essentially determined by the gluino mass. The observed value of cold dark matter, $Ø_{\rm CDM}h^2 \sim 0.1$, is obtained for gluino masses $m_{\gl} = {\cal O}(1 {\rm TeV})$.

description: We treat the non-relativistic Compton scattering process in which an incoming photon scatters from an N-electron many-body state to yield an outgoing photon and a recoil electron, without invoking the commonly used frameworks of either the impulse approximation (IA) or the independent particle model (IPM). An expression for the associated triple differential scattering cross section is obtained in terms of Dyson orbitals, which give the overlap amplitudes between the N-electron initial state and the (N-1) electron singly ionized quantum states of the target. We show how in the high energy transfer regime, one can recover from our general formalism the standard IA based formula for the cross section which involves the ground state electron momentum density (EMD) of the initial state. Our formalism will permit the analysis and interpretation of electronic transitions in correlated electron systems via inelastic x-ray scattering (IXS) spectroscopy beyond the constraints of the IA and the IPM.

description: The role of an exponential function of the scalar curvature in the modified gravity is analyzed. Two models are proposed. A toy model that complies with local and cosmological constraints and gives appropriate qualitative description of the cosmic evolution. This model contains a saddle matter-dominant critical point that can evolve towards a late time de Sitter attractor. Initial conditions have been proposed, showing that this toy model has an acceptable matter era and gives an approximate qualitative behavior of cosmic evolution. A second viable model, behaves very close to $Λ$CDM at early times and can satisfy local and cosmological constraints. It behaves as $R-2Λ$ at $R\rightarrow \infty$ and tends to zero at $R\rightarrow 0$, containing flat spacetime solution. The model gives viable cosmological trajectories that, as the first model, connect the matter dominated point with a late time de Sitter attractor. The cosmic evolution of the main density parameters in this model is consistent with current observations with an equation of state very close to $-1$.

description: We review key experimental and theoretical results on the Barkhausen effect, focusing on the statistical analysis of the noise. We discuss the experimental methods and the material used and review recent measurements. The picture emerging from the experimental data is that Barkhausen avalanche distributions and power spectra can be described by scaling laws as in critical phenomena. In addition, there is growing evidence that soft ferromagnetic bulk materials can be grouped in different classes according to the exponent values. Soft thin films still remain to be fully explored both experimentally and theoretically. Reviewing theories and models proposed in the recent past to account for the scaling properties of the Barkhausen noise, we conclude that the domain wall depinning scenario successfully explains most experimental data. Finally, we report a translation from German of the original paper by H. Barkhausen.

description: Empirical evidence suggests that producers value livestock based on observable attributes, and that attribute prices reveal nothing about producers’ preferences or structural demands for such characteristics. However, previous studies have focused to analyzing the determinants of price differentials, and limited theoretical and empirical research have been conducted to estimate the true underlying valuation functions. The main objective of this study is to examine how feeder cattle attributes are valued by producers. A theoretical model is developed to estimate producers’ willingness to pay for heterogeneous inputs, and it is applied to feeder cattle auction markets in South Texas. The model is based on the hedonic literature and it is estimated using discrete choice statistical methods. Model estimation is carried out in two steps. In the first step the hedonic price function is calculated. Then, the effects of input attributes on producer’s valuation are recovered using profit maximization specifications. The dataset used to analyze producers’ valuation of feeder cattle characteristics consists of 5,092 beef calf sales collected at 8 livestock auction facilities across South Texas during 2014-2017. The findings of this study will be used to develop effective value-added management practices and educational programs based on buyers’ preferences.

description: At a prime of ordinary reduction, the Iwasawa ``main conjecture'' for elliptic curves relates a Selmer group to a $p$-adic $L$-function. In the supersingular case, the statement of the main conjecture is more complicated as neither the Selmer group nor the $p$-adic $L$-function is well-behaved. Recently Kobayashi discovered an equivalent formulation of the main conjecture at supersingular primes that is similar in structure to the ordinary case. Namely, Kobayashi's conjecture relates modified Selmer groups, which he defined, with modified $p$-adic $L$-functions defined by the first author. In this paper we prove Kobayashi's conjecture for elliptic curves with complex multiplication.

description: The Polar Diagram [1] of a set of points (i.e. sites) is a partition of the plane. It is a locus approach for problems processing angles. Also, Dynamic Polar Diagram problem is a problem in which some points can be added to or removed from the point set of the Polar Diagram. Sadeghi et al. [4] introduced this problem and solved it using an algorithm which is optimal in the case that some points are deleted from the set. But this algorithm is not optimal when some new points are inserted into the diagram. In this paper, we present an algorithm to solve the Dynamic Polar Diagram in optimal time in which we insert some new points into the diagram one by one. Our approach applies only on the regions that would be changed and solves the problem for each insertion in O(k + log n) time, in which 1 ≤ k≤n is the number of the sites which their regions would be changed.

description: We develop a theoretical model to understand the progress of Land Titling initiated based on the Household Responsibility System in China since 1979. Land Titling has heterogeneous progress across different villages. We argue that farmers' resistance could hinder the implementation of the land title, but the homogenization of farmland quality and the farmers’ private agricultural investments in the village can help farmers to accept the policy in the following mechanisms. The homogenization of farmland quality can reduce the unfair cost of Land Titling; also the farmers’ private agricultural investments can evoke the need of farmers to protect property rights in the village where only partial farmers have engaged in agricultural investment. The theoretical model developed in the paper is supplemented by empirical analyses of farm household data collected from Guangdong provinces in China. We analyze data using Random Effect Generalized Ordered Probit models. Results indicate that, (1) the difference degree of farmland quality (traffic and fertility) within a village has a significant negative effect on the process level of Land Titling in this village; (2) the difference degree of farmers’ private agricultural investment (irrigation and mechanical usable proportion) within a village has a significant positive effect on the process level of Land Titling in this village; (3) as the Land Titling contains 5 procedures to implemented, the above two important factors mainly effect the implementation of the procedures which are about the titled land need to be recognized by the whole village community.

description: Recently there has been a great deal of interest in Voronoi Game: Two players insert a certain number of facilities in a determined number of rounds. The Voronoi Diagram of the inserted facilities is calculated and the winner is settled based on the Voronoi Regionoccupied by either of the players. A special version of the game in which the players insert their facilities in a single round is called "One Round Voronoi Game". Most of the previous studies in this area areperformed in continuous game regions and facilities are considered as single points in the region with no area. In this paper, a new approach to One Round Voronoi Game is presented. Two players insert their facilities on a rectangular grid in one round. The area of the grid is shared between the players based on the nearest neighbor rule with Manhattan metric. Winning strategies are proposed for the rst player in both one and two dimensional grids and the optimality of the strategy is proven in the one-dimensional case. Furthermore, the lower bound of winning margin is presented in both cases.

description: Tidal effects have important imprints on gravitational waves (GWs) emitted during the final stage of the coalescence of binaries that involve neutron stars (NSs). Dynamical tides can be significant when NS oscillations become resonant with orbital motion; understanding this process is important for accurately modeling GW emission from these binaries, and for extracting NS information from GW data. In this paper, we carry out a systematic study on the tidal excitation of fundamental modes of spinning NSs in coalescencing binaries, focusing on the case when the NS spin is anti-aligned with the orbital angular momentum-where the tidal resonance is most likely to take place. We first expand NS oscillations into stellar eigen-modes, and then obtain a Hamiltonian that governs the tidally coupled orbit-mode evolution. We next find a new approximation that can lead to analytic expressions of tidal excitations to a high accuracy, and are valid in all regimes of the binary evolution: adiabatic, resonant, and post-resonance. Using the method of osculating orbits, we obtain semi-analytic approximations to the orbital evolution and GW emission; their agreements with numerical results give us confidence in on our understanding of the system's dynamics. In particular, we recover both the averaged post-resonance evolution, which differs from the pre-resonance point-particle orbit by shifts in orbital energy and angular momentum, as well as instantaneous perturbations driven by the tidal motion. Finally, we use the Fisher matrix technique to study the effect of dynamical tides on parameter estimation. We find that the dynamical tides may potentially provide an additional channel to study the physics of NSs. The method presented in this paper is generic and not restricted to f mode; it can also be applied to other types of tide.

description: In accordance with an old suggestion of Asher Peres (1962), we consider the electromagnetic field as fundamental and the metric as a subsidiary field. In following up this thought, we formulate Maxwell's theory in a diffeomorphism invariant and metric-independent way. The electromagnetic field is then given in terms of the excitation $H=(H,D)$ and the field strength $F=(E,B)$. Additionally, a local and linear ``spacetime relation'' is assumed between $H$ and $F$, namely $H \sim κF$, with the constitutive tensor $κ$. The propagation is studied of electromagnetic wave fronts (surfaces of discontinuity) with a method of Hadamard. We find a generalized Fresnel equation that is quartic in the wave covector of the wave front. We discuss under which conditions the waves propagate along the light cone. Thereby we derive the metric of spacetime, up to a conformal factor, by purely electromagnetic methods.

description: Conventional school feeding programs in developing economies have often been operated using international food aid to improve nutritional and educational outcomes of the most vulnerable school-age children. Home-Grown School Feeding (HGSF) programs on the other hand, refer to a framework in which the school feeding is administered using food that is locally grown by smallholder farmers; this mechanism is designed to link school feeding with local agricultural production, with a two-fold objective of increasing children’s well-being as well as promoting local agricultural production and development by generating demand for small-holder farmers’ output. Using survey data from 150 households in rural and peri-urban communities in Ghana, this study examines the binding constraints facing smallholder farmer when deciding to participate in a school feeding farming contract. The study elicits responses from both the male household head and a secondary respondent, typically a woman farmer to examine whether cash flow or market risk constraints are binding. The research uses preliminary descriptive results to assess whether farmers who receive an initial payment are more willing to participate in the school feeding program contract, than farmers who receive no initial payments and how these differ by gender.

description: Massless localized vector field is obtained in five-dimensional supersymmetric (SUSY) QED coupled to tensor multiplets as a half BPS solution. The four-dimensional gauge coupling is obtained as a topological charge. We also find all the (bosonic) massive modes exactly for a particular value of a parameter, demonstrating explicitly the existence of a mass gap. The four-dimensional Coulomb law is shown to hold for sources placed on the wall.

description: Radio frequency (RF) signals can be relied upon for conventional wireless information transfer (WIT) and for challenging wireless power transfer (WPT), which triggers the significant research interest in the topic of simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT). By further exploiting the advanced non-orthogonal-multiple-access (NOMA) technique, we are capable of improving the spectrum efficiency of the resource-limited SWIPT system. In our SWIPT system, a hybrid access point (H-AP) superimposes the modulated symbols destined to multiple WIT users by exploiting the power-domain NOMA, while WPT users are capable of harvesting the energy carried by the superposition symbols. In order to maximise the amount of energy transferred to the WPT users, we propose a joint design of the energy interleaver and the constellation rotation based modulator in the symbol-block level by constructively superimposing the symbols destined to the WIT users in the power domain. Furthermore, a transmit power allocation scheme is proposed to guarantee the symbol-error-ratio (SER) of all the WIT users. By considering the sensitivity of practical energy harvesters, the simulation results demonstrate that our scheme is capable of substantially increasing the WPT performance without any remarkable degradation of the WIT performance.

description: J2ME is a development platform for mobile devices and has been introduced by Sun Micro-Systems Inc. In 1999 for programming limited devices such as phones, PDAs and other small devices. But this architecture does not support APIs for data persistence management and relational database because of its limitations. This paper presents a base for local relational database and data persistence management for J2ME based applications and can be used in any database aware application in J2ME platform. In this paper and implementation of this database system mobiledevice and J2ME limitations have been considered. Also, the B+tree indexing structure has been implemented in this project that allows us fast insertion, deletion, range queries, search, backup and restore mechanism for RMS based databases.

description: Hypothetical bias continues to be a challenge for practitioners of stated preference methods, and various remedies have been proposed to mitigate the problem. This paper presents the background, theory, and experimental design for testing two novel hypothetical bias mitigation treatments in the context of a contingent-valuation survey focused on a beach conditions monitoring service for Gulf Coast beachgoers. The two treatments proposed are: 1) a multiple-question budget and substitutes treatment, and 2) a cheap talk with confirmation treatment, to be tested both independently and in tandem. We present a theoretically-consistent model of budget-constrained utility maximization which accounts for the respondents’ subjective probability of a good beach trip with and without the beach conditions information. Data are to be collected via an online referendum-style valuation questionnaire sent to a randomly-selected sample of Gulf Coast households. Along with referendum responses and subjective probabilities, other information elicited from the respondents will include beach visit frequency, beach activities engaged in, knowledge of existing monitoring services, and specific beach conditions of interest.

description: Kentucky produce auctions play a significant role in the local and regional food systems acting as horticulture aggregators for producers of various specialty crops. Similar auctions have continued to start or expand throughout the Mid-South. The prices, quality, and quantity of the products distributed through these auctions vary throughout the marketing season and, subsequently, different kinds of buyers are attracted to bid. This study examines the evidence for structural market differences between early season, when prices are systematically higher, and peak season that can arise from different buyer needs relating to volume and distribution in local versus more regional outlets. Price flexibilities are often thought to be different throughout a season, but analysis of these data has been extremely limited. Price and quantity records from two of the larger Kentucky auctions, the Fairview and Lincoln County Produce Auction are analyzed for seven different produce commodities during early and peak season. Four years of data are evaluated using structural difference regression equations to test for early versus peak temporal differences as well as specific auction effects. This information can assist produce auctions to establish market coordination between producers with season extension operations and variously scaled market buyers.

description: We consider a modulated process S which, conditional on a background process X, has independent increments. Assuming that S drifts to -infinity and that its increments (jumps) are heavy-tailed (in a sense made precise in the paper), we exhibit natural conditions under which the asymptotics of the tail distribution of the overall maximum of S can be computed. We present results in discrete and in continuous time. In particular, in the absence of modulation, the process S in continuous time reduces to a Levy process with heavy-tailed Levy measure. A central point of the paper is that we make full use of the so-called ``principle of a single big jump'' in order to obtain both upper and lower bounds. Thus, the proofs are entirely probabilistic. The paper is motivated by queueing and Levy stochastic networks.
