description: We report the basic thermodynamic properties of the new geometrically frustrated beta-pyrochlore bulk superconductor RbOs2O6 with a critical temperature Tc = 6.4 K. Specific heat measurements are performed in magnetic fields up to 12 T. The electronic density of states at the Fermi level in the normal state results in gamma = (33.7 \pm 0.2) mJ/mol_f.u./K^2. In the superconducting state, the specific heat follows conventional BCS-type behavior down to 1 K, i.e. over three orders of magnitude in specific heat data. The upper critical field slope at Tc is 1.2 T/K, corresponding to a Maki-parameter alpha = 0.64 \pm 0.1. From the upper critical field mu0 Hc2 \approx 6 T at 0 K, we estimate a Ginzburg-Landau coherence length xi \approx 7.4 nm. RbOs2O6 is the second reported metallic AB2O6 type pyrochlore compound after KOs2O6, and one of only three pyrochlore superconductors in addition to Cd2Re2O7 and KOs2O6.

description: Evolution process could be calculated from the relativistic hydrodynamic equation with certain estimated initial conditions about a single spherical fireball here. So one could estimate a kind of initial condition qualitatively with a possible energy density about $ε_0\approx 1.9$ $GeV/fm^3$, based on this process to fit the experimental data at thermal freeze-out. The evolution from a cylindrical fireball will be discussed simply in a later chapter.

description: Das EU- Projekt „Restore 4 Life“ plant die Renaturierung von Fluss- und Auenlandschaften im Donaubecken, in Zusammenarbeit mit Citizen Scientists. Die nachstehende Fallstudie soll in diesem Rahmen das Potential und die Grenzen transdisziplinärer Arbeit, hinsichtlich der Datengenerierung zur Beurteilung von Ökosystemdienstleistungen aufzeigen.  In Hohenau an der March, einer Gemeinde nahe den March-Thaya-Auen, wurde nach Erstellung des „R4L Arbeitspakets“, eine Datenerhebung biologischer Parameter in Zusammenarbeit mit der NMS Hohenau geplant. Dieses Arbeitspaket beinhaltet Protokolle unterschiedlicher Messmethoden für Schulklassen, um deren Anwendbarkeit zur Erhebung von Baumdaten, Biodiversität und Bodeneigenschaften im Feld zu testen. Anhand der Ergebnisse wurde deutlich, dass die Qualität der durch die Schüler*innen erhobenen Daten, im Vergleich zu Expertenerhebungen im selben Gebiet, annähernd ident ist. Dies lässt den Schluss zu, dass künftige Forschungsprojekte in Kooperation mit Schulen zur Zustandserfassung österreichischer Auen nicht nur eine Bereicherung für die Naturwissenschaft sind, sondern auch große Bedeutung für die Zukunft des Artenschutzes und die Konservierung bedrohter Lebensräume in Österreich halten können.
description: The EU project "Restore 4 Life" aims to restore river and floodplain landscapes in the Danube Basin, in collaboration with citizen scientists. The following case study is intended to demonstrate the potential and limitations of transdisciplinary work regarding data generation for assessing ecosystem services. In Hohenau an der March, a municipality near the March-Thaya wetlands, a data collection of biological parameters was planned in collaboration with NMS Hohenau after the creation of the "R4L work package." This work package includes protocols for various measurement methods for school classes to test their applicability for collecting tree data, biodiversity, and soil properties in the field. The results showed that the quality of the data collected by the students is nearly identical to that obtained by experts in the same area. This leads to the conclusion that future research projects in cooperation with schools for assessing the condition of Austrian floodplains are not only a valuable addition to natural sciences but also hold great significance for the future of species conservation and the preservation of threatened habitats in Austria.

description: Dense systems of magnetic nanoparticles may exhibit dipolar collective behavior. However, two fundamental questions remain unsolved: i) whether the transition temperature may be affected by the particle anisotropy or it is essentially determined by the intensity of the interparticle dipolar interactions, and ii) what is the minimum ratio of dipole-dipole interaction ($E_\text{dd}$) to nanoparticle anisotropy ($K_{\text{ef}}V$, anisotropy $\times$ volume) energies necessary to crossover from individual to collective behavior. A series of particle assemblies with similarly intense dipolar interactions but widely varying anisotropy is studied. The $K_\text{ef}$ is tuned through different degrees of cobalt-doping in maghemite nanoparticles, resulting in a variation of nearly an order of magnitude. All the bare particle compacts display collective behavior, except the one made with the highest anisotropy particles, which presents ``marginal'' features. Thus, a threshold of $K_{\text{ef}} V/E_{\text{dd}} \approx 130$ to suppress collective behavior is derived, in good agreement with Monte Carlo simulations. This translates into a crossover value of $\approx 1.7$ for the easily accessible parameter $T_\text{MAX}$(interacting)$/T_\text{MAX}$(non-interacting) (ratio of the peak temperatures of the zero-field-cooled magnetization curves of interacting and dilute particle systems), which is successfully tested against the literature to predict the individual-like$/$collective behavior of any given interacting particle assembly comprising relatively uniform particles.

description: (Abridged) We present R-band images covering more than 11 square degrees of sky obtained with the KPNO 4-m telescope in preparation for the Spitzer Space Telescope First Look Survey. The FLS was designed to characterize the mid-infrared sky at depths 2 orders of magnitude deeper than previous surveys. The extragalactic component is the first cosmological survey done with Spitzer. Two relatively large regions of the sky were observed: the main FLS extra galactic field (17h18m+59d30m) and ELAIS-N1 field (16h10m+54d30m). The overall quality of the images is high. The relative astrometric accuracy is better than 0.1'' and the typical seeing is 1.1''. Images are relatively deep since they reach a median 5-sigma depth limiting magnitude of R=25.5 (Vega). Catalogs have been extracted using SExtractor using thresholds in area and flux for which the number of false detections is below 1% at R=25. Only sources with S/N greater than 3 have been retained in the final catalogs. Comparing the galaxy number counts from our images with those of deeper R-band surveys, we estimate that our observations are 50% complete at R=24.5. These limits in depth are sufficient to identify a substantial fraction of the infrared sources which will be detected by Spitzer.

$A+ A \to \emptyset$ reaction for particles with a dynamic bias to move away from their nearest neighbour in one dimension
Creators: name: Roy, Reshmi

Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: We consider the dynamics of particles undergoing the reaction $A+A \to \emptyset$ in one dimension with a dynamic bias. Here the particles move towards their nearest neighbour with probability $0.5+ε$ where $-0.5 \leq ε< 0$. $ε_c = -0.5$ is the deterministic limit where the nearest neighbour interaction is strictly repulsive. We show that the negative bias changes drastically the behaviour of the fraction of surviving particles $ρ(t)$ and persistence probability $P(t)$ with time $t$. $ρ(t)$ decays as $a/ (\log t)^b$ where $b$ increases with $ε- ε_c$. $P(t)$ shows a stretched exponential decay with non-universal decay parameters. The probability $Π(x,t)$ that a tagged particle is at position $x$ from its origin is found to be Gaussian for all $ε<0$; the associated scaling variable is $x/t^α$ where $α$ approaches the known limiting value $1/4$ as $ε\to ε_c$, in a power law manner. Some additional features of the dynamics by tagging the particles are also studied. The results are compared to the case of positive bias, a well studied problem.

description: The decision-making processes involved in the marketing of livestock includes a wide array of variables. Some of the variables reflect past historical events that are relevant to the decision, such as the number of cattle on feed one year ago. Another set of variables reflects current conditions of importance to the decision process, such as the present cash price at a particular market. A third group of variables reflects expectations of future events such as expected marketing that have bearing on the decision currently contemplated. This latter class of variables is significant in decision processes involving risk and uncertainty.

description: Radial age gradients hold the cumulative record of the multitude of physical processes driving the build-up of stellar populations and the ensuing star formation (SF) quenching process in galaxy bulges, therefore potentially sensitive discriminators between competing theoretical concepts on bulge formation and evolution. Based on spectral modeling of integral field spectroscopy data from the CALIFA survey, we derive mass- and light-weighted stellar age gradients ($\nabla$(t,B)L,M) within the photometrically determined bulge radius (RB) of a representative sample of local face-on late-type galaxies that span 2.6 dex in stellar mass. Our analysis documents a trend for decreasing $\nabla$(t,B)L,M with increasing M,T, with high-mass bulges predominantly showing negative age gradients and vice versa. The inversion from positive to negative $\nabla$(t,B)L,M occurs at logM,T ~ 10, which roughly coincides with the transition from lower-mass bulges whose gas excitation is powered by SF to bulges classified as Composite, LINER or Seyfert. We discuss two limiting cases for the origin of radial age gradients in massive LTG bulges. The first assumes that the stellar age in the bulge is initially spatially uniform, thus the observed age gradients arise from an inside-out SF quenching (ioSFQ) front that is radially expanding with a mean velocity vq. In this case, the age gradients translate into a slow ioSFQ that lasts until z~2, suggesting mild negative feedback by SF or an AGN. If negative age gradients in massive bulges are not due to ioSFQ but primarily due to their inside-out formation process, then the standard hypothesis of quasi-monolithic bulge formation has to be discarded in favor of a scenario that involves gradual buildup of stellar mass over 2-3 Gyr through, e.g., inside-out SF and inward migration of SF clumps from the disk. In this case, rapid AGN-driven ioSFQ cannot be ruled out.

description: FaCE is a self contained programme, with namelist input, that solves the three body Faddeev equations. It enables the inclusion of excitation of one of the three bodies, whilst the other two remain inert. It is particularly useful for obtaining the binding energies and bound state structure compositions of light exotic nuclei treated as three-body systems, given the three effective two body interactions. A large variety of forms for these interactions may be defined, and supersymmetric transformations of these potentials may be calculated whenever two body states need to be removed due to Pauli blocking.

description: Measuring fast ions, most notably fusion alphas, in ITER and future reactors remains an issue that still lacks an adequate solution. Numerical simulations are invaluable in testing the potential and limitations of various proposed diagnostics. However, the validity of the numerical tools first has to be checked against results from existing tokamaks. In this contribution, a variety of synthetic diagnostics for fast ions (collective Thomson scattering, neutral particle analyzer, neutron camera, infrared measurements, fast ion loss detector and activation probe) from the orbit-following Monte Carlo code ASCOT are compared to measurements from several tokamaks (ASDEX Upgrade, DIII-D and JET). Within the limitations of physics included in the numerical model and availability of input data from experiments, the agreement between synthetic data and measurements is found to be quite good.

description: An analysis of the relationship between the bandwidth of acoustic signals and the required resolution of steered-response power phase transform (SRP-PHAT) maps used for sound source localization is presented. This relationship does not rely on the far-field assumption, nor does it depend on any specific array topology. The proposed analysis considers the computation of a SRP map as a process of sampling a set of generalized cross-correlation (GCC) functions, each one corresponding to a different microphone pair. From this approach, we derive a rule that relates GCC bandwidth with inter-microphone distance, resolution of the SRP map, and the potential position of the sound source relative to the array position. This rule is a sufficient condition for an aliasing-free calculation of the specified SRP-PHAT map. Simulation results show that limiting the bandwidth of the GCC according to such rule leads to significant reductions in sound source localization errors when sources are not in the immediate vicinity of the microphone array. These error reductions are more relevant for coarser resolutions of the SRP map, and they happen in both anechoic and reverberant environments.

description: In Myanmar, almost all of research activities are centered on Extension Division that organized with versatile agricultural specialists who are most likely to distribute research activities and new innovation technologies to remote areas. Pearl Thwe hybrid rice seed production was introduced in 2011/2012 in monsoon, for poverty alleviation and better living standard of farmers due to its higher yield. Sown area however is very limited to adopt. The purposes of this study are to evaluate the impact assessment of extension program by benefitcost ratio (B:C), and to examine the most effective methodologies by marginal effect. The seasonal data (580 sample sizes) were collected in 58 Townships of four State and Regions, from 2011/2012 to 2015/2016. The results showed that annual average growth rate of Pearl Thwe adoption in Nay Pyi Taw, Kachin, Kayin, Chin, Tanintharyi, Bago and Magway Region/State are satisfied while the rest State and Region are highly unsatisfactory. Nevertheless, Sagaing, Mandalay, Mon, Shan and Ayeyarwaddy Region/State increased adoption areas yearly even having decreasing growth rate. Among still operating various extension methods in Myanmar, field day, media and field-trial are the best, and demonstration and farmer-field-school are also satisfied whilst integrated method, workshop, other method (traditionally), training and group discussion methods are unsatisfactory for hybrid rice adoption, in accordance with cost (applied extension methodologies) and benefit (Pearl Thwe’ adoption). By the perception and perception score of Township Officer, farmer field school, workshop, other method, integrated method, the media were unacknowledged, and market access and input are constraint factors while technical assistance and source of seed are most likely convenient factors. In order to promote the reliable extension methodologies in Myanmar, the policy makers should try to be more familiar to the media and farmer-field-school to farmers as field day, on farm-trial and demonstration.

description: The properties of randomly evolving special trees having defined and analyzed already in two earlier papers (arXiv:cond-mat/0205650 and arXiv:cond-mat/0211092) have been investigated in the case when the continuous time parameter converges to infinity. Equations for generating functions of the number of nodes and end-nodes in a stationary (i.e. infinitely old) tree have been derived. In order to solve exactly these equations we have chosen three simple distributions for the number of new nodes produced by one dying node. By using appropriate method we have calculated step-by-step the probabilities of finding n=1,2,... nodes as well as end-nodes in a stationary random tree. The conclusion to be correct that in the evolution process the formation of a rod-like stationary tree is much more probable than the formation of a tree with many branches.

title: The Role of CD40 in the Immune Response
Creators: name: Sorensen, Henrik Villum
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1999

description: A successful humoral immune response requires reciprocal signaling between T helper cells and B cells. The first signal is antigen specific and is mediated by the interaction between the T cell receptor and antigen in association with major histocompatibility complex on B cells. The subsequent signals are provided by the costimulatory molecules CD40 and CD28 and their respective ligands. CD40L which is expressed on activated T helper cells interacts with CD40 on B cells providing the essential signal for the induction of B cell activation and immunoglobulin production. The importance of the CD40-CD40L interaction has been shown in patients suffering from X-linked immunodeficiency with hyper-IgM (HIGM1). The disease is characterized by the inability of B cells to undergo immunoglobulin isotype switching. Affected males experience recurrent infections and most infections are of bacterial origin, but HIGM1 patients are also unusually susceptible to infections with opportunistic pathogens and often suffer from Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia and Cryptosporidium intestinal infection. Mutations in CD40L molecules are responsible for hyper IgM syndrome in humans.

 To study the role of the CD40-CD40L interaction in vivo and to derive an animal model for HIGM1, I generated CD40 deficient mice using homologous recombination in embryonic stem (ES) cells. A targeting vector was constructed using an 8 kb CD40 genomic fragment. The G418 resistance gene (NEO) was inserted into the 3rd exon to disrupt the CD40 gene and to allow selection. The targeting vector was transfected into ES cells and G418 resistant clones were isolated - and screened for homologous recombination by Southern blot analysis. Chimaeric mice were generated by injection of targeted ES cell clones into blastocysts. Germline transmission was obtained and heterozygous mutant mice bred to generate CD40 deficient mice.

 Flow cytometric analysis of lymphocytes in CD40 deficient mice revealed normal development of B and T lymphocytes. CD40 deficient mice were immunized with KLH and assessed for germinal centre formation. CD40 deficient mice did not generate germinal centres. Analysis of serum immunoglobulin levels showed that CD40 deficient mice displayed reduced levels of isotype switched immunoglobulins compared to wild-type mice. These results confirm the crucial role of the CD40-CD40L interaction in humoral immunity.

 CD40 is also expressed on other antigen presenting cells and the involvement of the CD40-CD40L interaction in cell-mediated immunity was determined in CD40 deficient mice infected with Mycobacterium Bovis (BCG). Although CD40 deficient mice survived mycobacterial infection, the increased numbers of bacilli in spleen and lungs and the reduced production of IFN-ɣ in response to mycobacterial infection indicates that CD40 deficient mice are more susceptible to infection with BCG than control mice.

description: This paper aims to compare the economics of GM maize and non-GM maize production across agro-ecological zones in Southern region. Data was collected through a two-stage randomly stratified sampling procedure. A total of 296 maize growers was surveyed by faceto face interviews using a well-structured questionnaire. The method of univariate analysis was applied. Results showed that costs of GM maize production were significantly lower than ones of non-GM maize per hectare. Of which, GM maize seed costs reflected obviously the difference based on the large deviation in price. In other words, herbicide use was still highly maintained for both maize types in Dak Lak and Dong Nai provinces. Total revenue, net profit and profit-cost ratio of GM maize cultivation contributed higher profitability compared to those of non-GM maize. Though initial outcomes presented relative benefits of GM maize variety utilization in the study areas. There is still an essential consideration for more comparative studies in order to assess the impact of new varieties more comprehensively.

Full distribution of the superfluid fraction and extreme value statistics in a one dimensional disordered Bose gas

Subjects: subject: Quantum Gases (cond-mat.quant-gas)

description: The full statistical distribution of the superfluid fraction characterizing one-dimensional Bose gases in random potentials is discussed. Rare configurations with extreme fluctuations of the disorder potential can fragment the condensate and reduce the superfluid fraction to zero. The resulting bimodal probability distribution for the superfluid fraction is calculated numerically in the quasi-1D mean-field regime of ultracold atoms in laser speckle potentials. Using extreme-value statistics, an analytical scaling of the zero-superfluid probability as function of disorder strength, disorder correlation length and system size is presented. It is argued that similar results can be expected for point-like impurities, and that these findings are in reach for present-day experiments.

description: Email is a medium of information that is still frequently used by people today. At the moment email still has an endless problem that is spam email. Spam email is an email that can pollute, damage or disturb the recipient. In this study, we show the performance and accuracy of Multinomial Naïve Bayes (MNNB) and Complete Gini-Index Text (GIT) for use in spam email filtering. In this study, we used 6 cross-validations as testers for the built classification machines. We found that the average yield can exceed Multinomial Naïve Bayes without using feature selection which only uses 80000 features with a difference of 0.39%. Feature selection also increases speed during classification and can reduce features that are less relevant to the category to be classified.

Spin polarized states in nuclear matter with Skyrme effective interaction

description: The possibility of appearance of spin polarized states in symmetric and strongly asymmetric nuclear matter is analyzed within the framework of a Fermi liquid theory with the Skyrme effective interaction. The zero temperature dependence of the neutron and proton spin polarization parameters as functions of density is found for SkM$^*$, SGII (symmetric case) and SLy4, SLy5 (strongly asymmetric case) effective forces. By comparing free energy densities, it is shown that in symmetric nuclear matter ferromagnetic spin state (parallel orientation of neutron and proton spins) is more preferable than antiferromagnetic one (antiparallel orientation of spins). Strongly asymmetric nuclear matter undergoes at some critical density a phase transition to the state with the oppositely directed spins of neutrons and protons while the state with the same direction of spins does not appear. In comparison with neutron matter, even small admixture of protons strongly decreases the threshold density of spin instability. It is clarified that protons become totally polarized within a very narrow density domain while the density profile of the neutron spin polarization parameter is characterized by the appearance of long tails near the transition density.

description: This paper proposes a contribution to the analysis of the processes that accompany the increasing fragmentation of agricultural worlds between contrasting models of development. To this end, we examine an area that has until now attracted little attention in this respect, that of the scientific and technological actors involved; we also look at original mechanisms which aim to create intersections between models of development. The paper is based on research carried out in Argentina, a country where there are two major contrasting models of development, embodied by the notions of agribusiness and family farming. We analyse the trajectory of a technological innovation in the field of machinery, based on the determination of agronomists and manufacturers to adapt agribusiness technologies to the needs of small family farmers. We study the attempts at problematisation and interessement that they make in relation to this public and its accompanying scientific and technical actors. These dynamics reveal contrasting approaches to innovation, technology and agricultural development. They also demonstrate the profound misunderstanding that exists between these two heterogeneous worlds.

description: Over the past ten years, the number of veterinarians in rural areas has declined in many countries, giving rise to concerns about the geographical coverage of livestock health care. However, very little scientific work has been devoted to veterinarian shortage areas. This paper aims to shed light on this issue. Using econometric models based on count data, we test the effect of geographical and socio-economic characteristics of French living zones on the number of new veterinarians established in 2014. This work generated several findings. First, our study emphasises the importance of taking into account the heterogeneity of veterinarians. Indeed, the estimation results highly depend on the type of animals treated and gender. Second, we observed that the location of food animal practitioners depends on the characteristics of local demand (size and type of animal production) as well as on labour supply factors (natural or urban amenities, public service facilities). The results suggest that the risk of veterinarian shortages may be higher for areas specialised in animal production other than bovine (sheep, goats). They also suggest that maintaining public services may be a key issue for attracting food animal veterinarians in remote rural areas. Finally, our results show that veterinarians tend to cluster, which suggests that new veterinarians choose to establish themselves as employees or associates in already existing veterinary offices in order to share costs and minimise risks.

description: For free-field theories associated with BRST first-quantized gauge systems, we identify generalized auxiliary fields and pure gauge variables already at the first-quantized level as the fields associated with algebraically contractible pairs for the BRST operator. Locality of the field theory is taken into account by separating the space--time degrees of freedom from the internal ones. A standard extension of the first-quantized system, originally developed to study quantization on curved manifolds, is used here for the construction of a first-order parent field theory that has a remarkable property: by elimination of generalized auxiliary fields, it can be reduced both to the field theory corresponding to the original system and to its unfolded formulation. As an application, we consider the free higher-spin gauge theories of Fronsdal.
