description: From a survey of farmers’ markets shoppers,this study aims to investigate the factors that differentiate samplers and non-samplers,factors that motivate and discourage consumers to take free samples presented by vendors,and estimate to what extent sampling affects consumer behavior and perceptions about products. A survey questionnaire was conducted yielding 1145 usable responses. A simultaneous equation model and exploratory factor analysis assessment was conducted. Results show that consumers’ trust in farmers’ markets food system have a significant impact on sampling decisions,and affiliation towards persons distributing samples motivate consumers to sample. The post sampling effect can be reflected by consumers’ immediate purchase,generating word of mouth and an increase in unplanned purchase.

description: The second Miniature X-ray Solar Spectrometer (MinXSS-2) CubeSat, which begins its flight in late 2018, builds on the success of MinXSS-1, which flew from 2016-05-16 to 2017-05-06. The science instrument is more advanced -- now capable of greater dynamic range with higher energy resolution. More data will be captured on the ground than was possible with MinXSS-1 thanks to a sun-synchronous, polar orbit and technical improvements to both the spacecraft and the ground network. Additionally, a new open-source beacon decoder for amateur radio operators is available that can automatically forward any captured MinXSS data to the operations and science team. While MinXSS-1 was only able to downlink about 1 MB of data per day corresponding to a data capture rate of about 1%, MinXSS-2 will increase that by at least a factor of 6. This increase of data capture rate in combination with the mission's longer orbital lifetime will be used to address new science questions focused on how coronal soft X-rays vary over solar cycle timescales and what impact those variations have on the earth's upper atmosphere.

description: We model the U.S. agricultural sector as the producer of multiple goods and services, and we model its resource allocation decisions within a framework based on the theory of multiproduct firms. We estimate an input demand allocation model using maximum likelihood method. The results show that intermediate goods, capital, and labor are all complementary to land, which makes sense in the real agricultural production process. Intermediate goods are substitutes to capital, while labor is complementary to land. Due to the overly aggregated output variables, price changes of output variables do not have significant impact on the demand for inputs, except one case in which 1% price increase of other farm-related products will lead to 0.036% change in the demand for land.

description: Collective excitations (spinwaves) of long-lived atomic hyperfine states can be synthesized into a Bose-Hubbard model in momentum space. We explore many-body ground states and dynamics of a two-leg momentum-space lattice formed by two coupled hyperfine states. Essential ingredients of this setting are a staggered artificial magnetic field engineered by lasers that couple the spinwave states, and a state-dependent long-range interaction, which is induced by laser-dressing a hyperfine state to a Rydberg state. The Rydberg dressed two-body interaction gives rise to a state-dependent blockade in momentum space, and can amplify staggered flux induced anti-chiral edge currents in the many-body ground state in the presence of magnetic flux. When the Rydberg dressing is applied to both hyperfine states, exotic sliding insulating and superfluid/supersolid phases emerge. Due to the Rydberg dressed long-range interaction, spinwaves slide along a leg of the momentum-space lattice without costing energy. Our study paves a route to the quantum simulation of topological phases and exotic dynamics with interacting spinwaves of atomic hyperfine states in momentum-space lattice.

description: Urinary tract infections are a serious health concern worldwide, especially in developing countries. Escherichia coli strain CFT073 is a highly virulent pathogenic bacterial strain. CFT073 proteome contains 4897 proteins, out of which 992 have been classified as hypothetical proteins. Identification and characterization of hypothetical proteins can aid in the selection of targets for drug design. In this study, we studied the hypothetical proteins from the UPEC strain CFT073 using various computational tools. By NCBI-CDD, 376 protein sequences showed conserved domains. Based on the functional motifs in their primary sequences, we classified these 376 hypothetical proteins into 7 functional categories. Further KEGG database was used to find the roles of these hypothetical proteins in several pathways. Protein interaction network analysis of hypothetical proteins identified 53 proteins as highly interacting metabolic proteins. Virulence factor analysis of the proteins identified 8 proteins as virulent. We conducted a non-homology search for the identified proteins of UPEC in the available human proteome. We observed that 35 proteins are non-homologous to humans and hence could be selected for drug designing targets. Qualitative characterization of the selected 35 non-homologous hypothetical proteins including essentiality analysis and evaluation of druggability by similarity search against drug bank database was performed. Out of these 35 proteins, three-dimensional structures of six proteins (NP_752562.1, NP_756345.1, NP_754893.1, NP_756600.2, NP_755264.1 and NP_752994.1) could be successfully modelled. These new annotations can help to better understand disease mechanisms at the molecular level, as well as provide new targets for drug development against the UPEC strain CFT073.

description: Abstract: Aims and objectives: This paper describes a pilot non-randomised controlled study of a highly tailored 56-day text messaging and smartphone app prototype intervention to increase adherence to anti-hypertensive medication in primary care. The aim of this study was to evaluate the acceptability of the intervention and obtain patients’ views about the intervention content, the delivery mode, and the mechanisms by which the intervention supported medication adherence. Methods: Patients diagnosed with hypertension were invited and recruited to the study via general practice text messages and attended a face to face meeting with a member of the researcher team. Participants were asked to test the text messaging intervention for 28 consecutive days and switch to the smartphone app for 28 more days. Participants completed baseline and follow-up questionnaires and took part in semi-structured telephone interviews. Digital log files captured patients’ engagement with the intervention. Participant transcripts were analysed using thematic analysis. Descriptive statistics were used to summarise data from questionnaires and log files. A mixed methods analysis generated data to respond to the research questions. Results: Seventy-nine patients expressed interest to participate in this study, of whom 23 (64% male, 82% above 60 years old) were registered to take part. With one drop-out, 22 participants tested the text messaging delivery mode (with 20 being interviewed) and four of them (17%) switched to the app (with 3 being interviewed). All participants engaged and interacted with the text messages and app notifications, and all participants found the intervention content and delivery mode acceptable. They also self-reported that the interactive elements of the intervention motivated them to take their medications as prescribed. Conclusion: This study provides evidence that the digital intervention is acceptable by hypertensive patients recruited in primary care. Future research could usefully investigate its feasibility and effectiveness using rigorous research methods. Trial registration: ISRCTN12805654

description: Abstract: A standard argument for one-boxing in Newcomb’s Problem is ‘Why Ain’cha Rich?’, which emphasizes that one-boxers typically make a million dollars compared to the thousand dollars that two-boxers can expect. A standard reply is the ‘opportunity defence’: the two-boxers who made a thousand never had an opportunity to make more. The paper argues that the opportunity defence is unavailable to anyone who grants that in another case—a Frankfurt case—the agent is deprived of opportunities in the way that advocates of Frankfurt cases typically claim.

description: In this paper, we study the matrix model proposed by Berenstein, Maldacena, and Nastase to describe M-theory on the maximally supersymmetric pp-wave. We show that the model may be derived directly as a discretized theory of supermembranes in the pp-wave background, or alternatively, from the dynamics of D0-branes in type IIA string theory. We consider expanding the model about each of its classical supersymmetric vacua and note that for large values of the mass parameter μ, interaction terms are suppressed by powers of 1/mu, so that the model may be studied in perturbation theory. We compute the exact spectrum about each of the vacua in the large μlimit and find the complete (infinite) set of BPS states, which includes states preserving 2, 4, 6, 8, or 16 supercharges. Through explicit perturbative calculations, we then determine the effective coupling that controls the perturbation expansion for large μand estimate the range of parameters and energies for which perturbation theory is valid.

description: Over the last decade there has been a move by many consumers to purchase locally grown products. Many studies have focused on food with limited studies examining plants. Utilizing a choice experiment in conjunction with latent class modeling with examine the impact of locally labeling and retail outlet on preference and willingness to pay for azaleas. Results indicate that only one of the latent classes, about 43% of the sample, valued locally labeling. Furthermore, the same class that valued local also preferred a nursery/greenhouse outlet over a home improvement center. Recommendations for the different retail outlets are given based on the results.

description: Magnetic Feshbach resonances are a key tool in the field of ultracold quantum gases, but their full exploitation requires the generation of large, stable magnetic fields up to 1000 G with fractional stabilities of better than $10^{-4}$. Design considerations for electromagnets producing these fields, such as optical access and fast dynamical response, mean that electric currents in excess of 100 A are often needed to obtain the requisite field strengths. We describe a simple digital proportional-integral-derivative current controller constructed using a field-programmable gate array and off-the-shelf evaluation boards which allows for gain scheduling, enabling optimal control of current sources with non-linear actuators. Our controller can stabilize an electric current of 337.5 A to the level of $7.5\times 10^{-7}$ in an averaging time of 10 minutes and with a control bandwidth of 2 kHz.

description: Precision farming utilizes information technology to add exactness to the quantity, quality, timing and location in the application and utilization of inputs in agricultural production. Though having tremendous potential, after two decades of work pertaining to precision agriculture, our abilities to capitalize on this technology have fallen far short of expectations. This manuscript frames the discussion concerning the challenges and opportunities of precision farming identifying critical knowledge gaps that must be addressed before precision agriculture technologies will be more widely embraced. A review of the literature provides the foundation for this discussion, helps identify knowledge gaps and outline some of the progressions in technologies needed for the industry to better capitalize on the potential advantages offered by precision agriculture.

description: The direct growth of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) with a narrow distribution of diameter or chirality remains elusive despite significant benefits in properties and applications. Nanoparticle catalysts are vital for SWCNT synthesis, but how to precisely manipulate their chemistry, size, concentration, and deposition remains difficult, especially within a continuous production process from the gas phase. Here, we demonstrate the preparation of W6Co7 alloyed nanoparticle catalysts with precisely tunable stoichiometry using electrospray, which remain solid state during SWCNT growth. We also demonstrate continuous production of liquid iron nanoparticles with in-line size selection. With the precise size manipulation of catalysts in the range of 1−5 nm, and a nearly monodisperse distribution (σg 1.2), an excellent size selection of SWCNTs can be achieved. All of the presented techniques show great potential to facilitate the realization of single-chirality SWCNTs production.

description: Past research suggests there are three types of friendship: active, dormant, and commemorative. Given studies have primarily focused on active ties, this study seeks to explore the maintenance of dormant and commemorative ties online. Drawing from in-depth interviews (N = 23) this research explores motivations for the maintenance of dormant and commemorative friendships of young adults through social media. Findings suggest users are interested in maintaining dormant and commemorative ties due to three reasons: potential reconnection, perceived social capital, and nostalgia. Implications related to research on friendship, social media, and well-being are discussed.

description: For high energy long baseline neutrino oscillation experiments, we propose a Figure of Merit criterion to compare the statistical quality of experiments at various oscillation distances under the condition of identical detectors and a given neutrino beam. We take into account all possible experimental errors under general consideration. In this way the Figure of Merit is closely related to the usual statistical criterion of number of sigmas. We use a realistic neutrino beam for an entry level neutrino factory and a possible superbeam from a meson source and a 100 kt detector for the calculation. We considered in detail four oscillation distances, 300 km, 700 km, 2100 km and 3000 km, in the neutrino energy range of 0.5-20 GeV for a 20 GeV entry level neutrino factory and a 50 GeV superbeam. We found that the very long baselines of 2100 km and 3000 km are preferred for the neutrino factory according to the figure of merit criterion. Our results also show that, for a neutrino factory, lower primary muon energies such as 20 GeV are preferred rather than higher ones such as 30 or 50 GeV. For the superbeam, the combination of a long baseline such as 300 km and a very long baseline like 2100 km will form a complete measurement of the oscillation parameters besides the CP phase. To measure the CP phase in a superbeam, a larger detector (a factor 3 beyond what is considered in this article) and/or a higher intensity beam will be needed to put some significant constraints on the size of the CP angle.

We illustrate this phenomenon by considering the cotangent Lie algebroids of Poisson groupoids thus obtaining an interesting class of symplectic groupoids coming from their symplectic foliations. In particular, we show that for a (strict) Lie 2-group the coadjoint orbits of the units in the dual of its Lie 2-algebra are symplectic groupoids, meaning that the classical Kostant-Kirillov-Souriau symplectic forms on these special coadjoint orbits are multiplicative.

description: Abstract: Information on the mating system of an insect species is necessary to gain insight into sexual selection and population structure. Male territoriality of the common evening brown butterfly Melanitis leda has been studied in the wild, but other aspects of its mating system remain largely unknown. For a population of M. leda in South India, we observed male-male and male-female interactions in captivity, measured mating duration and spermatophore mass, and also determined the degree of polyandry in the wild. We found that mating behavior takes place for short periods of time around dawn and dusk. Our observations corroborate that males compete in aerial combats (twirling) and interfere with mating pairs. In the morning, they may use shivering to warm up. Females can twirl with males and refuse mating by pointing their abdomens upwards or by flying away. Males court females by fluttering their wings while perched behind females, and then initiate copulation by curling their abdomens ca. 180 degrees sideways to make genital contact. While in the morning, matings lasted on average one hour and twenty-three minutes and never exceeded three hours, in the evening, matings could be of similar duration, but 42% of butterflies only separated when dawn was approaching. However, such long nocturnal matings did not result in heavier spermatophores. The first spermatophore of a male tended to be larger than subsequent spermatophores. Together with previous studies on this species, our findings suggest that males compete mainly through territorial defense (as reported before), courtship performance, and interference, and to a lesser extent by providing spermatophores, while females exert some control over the mating system by the timing of their receptivity and mate choice.

description: We propose a simple model of the neutrino mass matrix which can explain the solar and atmospheric neutrino problems in a 3($ν_L + ν_R$) framework. Assuming that only two right-handed neutrinos are heavy and a Dirac mass matrix has a special texture, we construct a model with four light neutrinos. The favorable structure of flavor mixings and mass eigenvalues required by those neutrino deficits is realized as a result of the seesaw mechanism. Bi-maximal mixing structure might be obtainable in this scheme. Since it contains a light sterile neutrino, it has a chance to explain the LSND result successfully. We consider an embedding of this scenario for the neutrino mass matrix into the SU(5) grand unification scheme using the Froggatt-Nielsen mechanism based on $U(1)_{F_1} \times U(1)_{F_2}$. Both a small mixing angle MSW solution and a large mixing angle MSW solution are obtained for the solar neutrino problem depending on the charged lepton mass matrix.

****************************************************************************************************ABSTRACTEngineering is governed by mathematical laws, of which a pearl is the Pythagoras Theorem x2+y2=z2 - an equation that has enabled humans to solve problems for the past millennia in all fields of science, ranging from civil to electrical engineering. In view of unlocking further benefits, the present article looks at a variant equation of the Pythagoras Theorem, namely x2+xy+y2=z2. Here, it was found that just as the Pythagoras Theorem x2+y2=z2 establishes an area relation between squares along the sides of a right-angled triangle, equation x2+xy+y2=z2 extends this theorem by establishing an area relation between triangles along the sides of a 120-degree-angled triangle. Proofs are presented in both cases - including geometric and algebraic components – and are followed by classroom exercises, showing that both classical and extended versions of the Pythagoras Theorem are equally useful in cases of mathematics applied to engineering.

description: The discrete effect on the boundary condition has been a fundamental topic for the lattice Boltzmann method in simulating heat and mass transfer problems. In previous works based on the halfway anti-bounce-back (ABB) boundary condition for convection-diffusion equations (CDEs), it is reported that the discrete effect cannot be commonly removed in the Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) model except for a special value of relaxation time. Targeting this point in the present paper, we still proceed within the framework of BGK model for two-dimensional CDEs, and analyze the discrete effect on a non-halfway ABB boundary condition which incorporates the effect of the distance ratio. By analyzing an unidirectional diffusion problem with a parabolic distribution, the theoretical derivations with three different discrete velocity models show that the numerical slip is a combined function of the relaxation time and the distance ratio. Different from previous works, we definitely find that the relaxation time can be freely adjusted by the distance ratio in a proper range to eliminate the numerical slip. Some numerical simulations are carried out to validate the theoretical derivations, and the numerical results for the cases of straight and curved boundaries confirm our theoretical analysis. Finally, it should be noted that the present analysis can be extended from the BGK model to other lattice Boltzmann (LB) collision models for CDEs, which can broaden the parameter range of the relaxation time to approach 0.5.

description: Abstract: Of the ten human-restricted Neisseria species two, Neisseria meningitidis, and Neisseria gonorrhoeae, cause invasive disease: the other eight are carried asymptomatically in the pharynx, possibly modulating meningococcal and gonococcal infections. Consequently, characterizing their diversity is important for understanding the microbiome in health and disease. Whole genome sequences from 181 Neisseria isolates were examined, including those of three well-defined species (N. meningitidis; N. gonorrhoeae; and Neisseria polysaccharea) and genomes of isolates unassigned to any species (Nspp). Sequence analysis of ribosomal genes, and a set of core (cgMLST) genes were used to infer phylogenetic relationships. Average Nucleotide Identity (ANI) and phenotypic data were used to define species clusters, and morphological and metabolic differences among them. Phylogenetic analyses identified two polyphyletic clusters (N. polysaccharea and Nspp.), while, cgMLST data grouped Nspp isolates into nine clusters and identified at least three N. polysaccharea clusters. ANI results classified Nspp into seven putative species, and also indicated at least three putative N. polysaccharea species. Electron microscopy identified morphological differences among these species. This genomic approach provided a consistent methodology for species characterization using distinct phylogenetic clusters. Seven putative novel Neisseria species were identified, confirming the importance of genomic studies in the characterization of the genus Neisseria.
