description: We present MUSE Integral Field Unit (IFU) observations of five individual HII regions in two giant (>100 pc in radius) star-forming complexes in the low-metallicity ($Z$~0.33 $Z_{\odot}$) nearby (D ~ 2 Mpc) dwarf spiral galaxy NGC 300. We combine the IFU data with high spatial resolution HST photometry to demonstrate the extraction of stellar spectra and the classification of individual stars from ground-based data at the distance of 2 Mpc. For the two star-forming complexes, in which no O-type stars had previously been identified, we find a total of 13 newly identified O-type stars in the mass range 15-50 M$_{\odot}$, as well as 4 Wolf-Rayet stars. We use the derived massive stellar content to analyze the impact of stellar feedback on the HII regions. As already found for HII regions in the Magellanic Clouds, the dynamics of the analyzed NGC 300 HII regions are dominated by a combination of the pressure of the ionized gas and stellar winds. By comparing the derived ionized gas mass loading factors to the total gas mass loading factor across the NGC 300 disk, we find that the latter is an order of magnitude higher, either indicating very early evolutionary stages for these HII regions, or being a direct result of the multi-phase nature of feedback-driven bubbles. Moreover, we analyze the relation between the star formation rate and the pressure of the ionized gas as derived from small (<100 pc) scales, as both quantities are systematically overestimated when derived on galactic scales. With the wealth of ongoing and upcoming IFU instruments and programs, this study serves as a pathfinder for the systematic investigation of resolved stellar feedback in nearby galaxies, and it delivers the necessary analysis tools to enable massive stellar content and feedback studies sampling an unprecedented range of HII region properties across entire galaxies in the nearby Universe.

description: We discuss a numerical algorithm for solving nonlinear integro-differential equations, and illustrate our findings for the particular case of Volterra type equations. The algorithm combines a perturbation approach meant to render a linearized version of the problem and a spectral method where unknown functions are expanded in terms of Chebyshev polynomials (El-gendi's method). This approach is shown to be suitable for the calculation of two-point Green functions required in next to leading order studies of time-dependent quantum field theory.

$T \bar T$ Deformations, Massive Gravity and Non-Critical Strings

description: The $T \bar T$ deformation of a 2 dimensional field theory living on a curved spacetime is equivalent to coupling the undeformed field theory to 2 dimensional `ghost-free' massive gravity. We derive the equivalence classically, and using a path integral formulation of the random geometries proposal, which mirrors the holographic bulk cutoff picture. We emphasize the role of the massive gravity \stu fields which describe the diffeomorphism between the two metrics. For a general field theory, the dynamics of the \stu fields is non-trivial, however for a CFT it trivializes and becomes equivalent to an additional pair of target space dimensions with associated curved target space geometry and dynamical worldsheet metric. That is, the $T \bar T$ deformation of a CFT on curved spacetime is equivalent to a non-critical string theory in Polyakov form, with a non-zero $B$-field. We give a direct proof of the equivalence classically without relying on gauge fixing, and determine the explicit form for the classical Hamiltonian of the $T\bar T$ deformation of an arbitrary CFT on a curved spacetime. When the QFT action is a sum of a CFT plus an operator of fixed scaling dimension, as for example in the sine-Gordon model, the equivalence to a non-critical theory string holds with a modified target space metric and modified $B$-field. Finally we give a stochastic path integral formulation for the general $T \bar T+J \bar T+T \bar J$ deformation of a general QFT, and show that it reproduces a recent path integral proposal in the literature.

Lattice dynamics and correlated atomic motion from the atomic pair distribution function

description: The mean-square relative displacements (MSRD) of atomic pair motions in crystals are studied as a function of pair distance and temperature using the atomic pair distribution function (PDF). The effects of the lattice vibrations on the PDF peak widths are modelled using both a multi-parameter Born von-Karman (BvK) force model and a single-parameter Debye model. These results are compared to experimentally determined PDFs. We find that the near-neighbor atomic motions are strongly correlated, and that the extent of this correlation depends both on the interatomic interactions and crystal structure. These results suggest that proper account of the lattice vibrational effects on the PDF peak width is important in extracting information on static disorder in a disordered system such as an alloy. Good agreement is obtained between the BvK model calculations of PDF peak widths and the experimentally determined peak widths. The Debye model successfully explains the average, though not detailed, natures of the MSRD of atomic pair motion with just one parameter. Also the temperature dependence of the Debye model largely agrees with the BvK model predictions. Therefore, the Debye model provides a simple description of the effects of lattice vibrations on the PDF peak widths.

description: We study the fragmentation of the b quark in top decay in NLO QCD, within the framework of perturbative fragmentation, which allows one to resum large logarithms $\sim\log (m_t^2/m_b^2)$. We show the b-energy distribution, which we compare with the exact ${\cal O} (α_S)$ result for a massive b quark. We use data from $e^+e^-$ machines in order to describe the b-quark hadronization and make predictions for the energy spectrum of b-flavoured hadrons in top decay. We also investigate the effect of NLL soft-gluon resummation in the initial condition of the perturbative fragmentation function on parton- and hadron-level energy distributions.

description: We revisit the pointer-based measurement concept of von Neumann which allows us to model a quantum counterpart of the classical time-of-flight (ToF) momentum. Our approach is based on the Hamiltonian for a particle interacting with two quantum pointers serving as basic measurement devices. The corresponding dynamics leads to a pointer-based ToF observable for the operational momentum of the particle. We can consider single measurements of our quantum pointers and show that this process will result in a state reduction for a single particle being downstream of the time-of-flight setup.

Dynamical robustness of discrete conservative systems: Harper and generalized standard maps

description: In recent years, statistical characterization of the discrete conservative dynamical systems (more precisely, paradigmatic examples of area-preserving maps such as the standard and the web maps) has been analyzed extensively and shown that, for larger parameter values for which the Lyapunov exponents are largely positive over the entire phase space, the probability distribution is a Gaussian, consistent with Boltzmann-Gibbs (BG) statistics. On the other hand, for smaller parameter values for which the Lyapunov exponents are virtually zero over the entire phase space, we verify this distribution appears to approach a $q$-Gaussian (with $q \simeq 1.935$), consistent with $q$-statistics. Interestingly, if the parameter values are in between these two extremes, then the probability distributions happen to exhibit a linear combination of these two behaviours. Here, we numerically show that the Harper map is also in the same universality class of the maps discussed so far. This constitutes one more evidence on the robustness of this behavior whenever the phase space consists of stable orbits. Then, we propose a generalization of the standard map for which the phase space includes many sticky regions, changing the previously observed simple linear combination behavior to a more complex combination.

description: Numerous studies have estimated elasticities of alcohol demand using different procedures. Because of widespread differences in demand estimates, however, it is difficult to synthesise the literature into coherent meaning. This study improves our understanding of alcohol demand by reporting results from a meta-analysis of 132 studies. Specifically, regressing estimated price, income and advertising elasticities of alcohol on variables accounting for study characteristics, we find alcohol elasticities to be particularly sensitive to demand specification, data issues and various estimation methods. Furthermore, compared to other alcoholic beverages, beer elasticities tend to be more inelastic.

description: In this paper we estimate a Translog output distance function for a balanced panel of state level data for the Australian dairy processing sector. We estimate a fixed effects specification employing Bayesian methods, with and without the imposition of monotonicity and curvature restrictions. Our results indicate that Tasmania and Victoria are the most technically efficient states with New South Wales being the least efficient. The imposition of theoretical restrictions marginally affects the results especially with respect to estimates of technical change and industry deregulation. Importantly, our bias estimates show changes in both input use and output mix that result from deregulation. Specifically, we find that deregulation has positively biased the production of butter, cheese and powders.

description: We study the resonance production of radions via $γγ$ fusion in the Randall-Sundrum model. We find that the cross section of the process in the $γγ$ mode of a linear collider (LC) can be of similar size as in the $e^+e^-$ collision mode, if the radion is heavy. We consider the possible curvature-Higgs mixing in the model, and we find that the mixing should be constrained in order to avoid an unphysical state. The process $γγ\to ϕ$ is the main source of radions at LC near the conformal limit. We consider both the decay modes of radion with curvature-Higgs mixing and without. Our results show that the radion with mass below 800 GeV could be detected at LC with any mixing parameter and vacuum expectation value of the radion around 1 TeV.

description: In this paper, estimates of value for recreational fishing are reported for three major freshwater impoundments in Queensland, Australia, using both travel cost and contingent valuation methods. Policy analysts often require estimates of value when analysing the importance of recreation against other uses of impoundments, or when considering the potential for further investments, such as with fish stocking programs. Different forms of the travel cost method are used to estimate separate consumer surpluses associated with two key subgroups of recreational anglers: frequent and occasional anglers. A contingent valuation study is used to estimate the marginal values associated with a potential improvement in fishing experience. The results of the travel cost analysis provide strong evidence that recreational values vary between different groups of anglers and across sites, while the contingent valuation estimates provide values for additional marginal benefits of recreational angling.

energy system modelling

description: In order to achieve the goal of plan4res, which is the development of a modelling framework that covers all relevant aspects of future energy systems, a separation in several submodels was deemed appropriated. Deliverable 3.1 (10.5281/zenodo.3904272) defines the structure of this framework and the interconnection between these models. Deliverable 3.2 of the project gives a detailed mathematical and functional description of each building block of the overall framework. This document is dedicated to the specific study of one of these building blocks: seasonal storage valuation. This optimization problem is a multi-stage stochastic convex program which in principle can be solved with dynamic programming or variants thereof (such as stochastic dual dynamic programming). The scale, size and complexity of the model provide strong arguments in
 favour of employing SDDP. The latter classic method of optimization has been developed in the open source library StOpt. It is the purpose of the current document to describe carefully this library, but also to provide insights on how to fit it into the general solver backbone SMS++.

description: Analysis of the relationship between distance and willingness to pay (WTP) is important for estimation and transfer of environmental benefits. Several contingent valuation (CV) studies have investigated this topic, but results are mixed. This paper describes a choice modelling (CM) application that estimates distance effects on parameters of three environmental attributes. Combinations of these attributes create different management policies for native vegetation. The CM study is based on a sampling procedure that provides a geographically balanced sample and statistical tests to choose the best specification of the distance–WTP relationship. Welfare analysis shows that disregarding distance causes under-estimation of individual and aggregated benefits and losses, seriously misdirecting resource allocation.

description: In this paper we introduce a class of mathematical objects called \emph{extensors} and develop some aspects of their theory with considerable detail. We give special names to several particular but important cases of extensors. The \emph{extension,} \emph{adjoint} and \emph{generalization} operators are introduced and their properties studied. For the so-called $(1,1)$-extensors we define the concept of \emph{determinant}, and their properties are investigated. Some preliminary applications of the theory of extensors are presented in order to show the power of the new concept in action. An useful formula for the inversion of $(1,1)$-extensors is obtained.

description: An efficient physically motivated computational approach to multiband superconductivity is introduced and applied to the study of the gap symmetry in a heavy-fermion, UPd$_2$Al$_3$. Using realistic pairing potentials and accurate energy bands that are computed within density functional theory, self-consistent calculations demonstrate that the only accessible superconducting gap with nodes exhibits d-wave symmetry in the $A_{1g}$ representation of the $D_{6h}$ point group. Our results suggest that in a superconductor with gap nodes the prevailing gap symmetry is dictated by the constraint that nodes must be as far as possible from high-density areas.

We review the prospects for such signal in Two Higgs Doublet Models, in particular for Higgs boson decays into $τμ$ final states. We will show that this scenario contains all the necessary ingredients to provide large flavor violating rates and still be compatible with the stringent limits from direct searches and low-energy flavor experiments.

description: The nonmetro economy has grown faster than the metro economy in some years, slower in others. But it has always grown more slowly than overall economic factors suggest it should. Furthermore, the more rural the county, the more it lags behind its potential. The lag seems due to a "rural factor" that represents a penalty for isolation, distance, small size, and other drawbacks of being apart from urban centers.

description: Land fragmentation, where a single farm has a number of parcels of land, is a common feature of agriculture in many countries, especially in developing countries. In Vietnam, land fragmentation is common, especially in the north. For the whole country, there are about 75 million parcels of land, an average of seven to eight plots per farm household. Such fragmentation can be seen to have negative and positive benefits for farm households and the community generally. Comparative statics analysis and analysis of survey data have led to the conclusion that small-sized farms are likely to be more fragmented, and that fragmentation had a negative impact on crop productivity and increased family labour use and other money expenses. Policies which allow the appropriate opportunity cost of labour to be reflected at the farm level may provide appropriate incentives to trigger farm size change and land consolidation. Policies which tip the benefits in favour of fewer and larger plots, such as strong and effective research and development, an active extension system and strong administrative management, may also lead to land consolidation.

description: Azimuthal spin asymmetries, both for charged and neutral pion production in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering of unpolarized charged lepton beams on longitudinally and transversely polarized nucleon targets, are analyzed and calculated. Various assumptions and approximations in the quark distributions and fragmentation functions often used in these calculations are studied in detail. It is found that different approaches to the distribution and fragmentation functions may lead to quite different predictions on the azimuthal asymmetries measured in the HERMES experiments, thus their effects should be taken into account before using the available data as a measurement of quark transversity distributions. It is also found that the unfavored quark to pion fragmentation functions must be taken into account for $π^-$ production from a proton target, although they can be neglected for $π^+$ and $π^0$ production. Pion production from a proton target is suitable to study the $u$ quark transversity distribution, whereas a combination of pion production from both proton and neutron targets can measure the flavor structure of quark transversity distributions.

description: Population leakage outside the qubit subspace presents a particularly harmful source of error that cannot be handled by standard error correction methods. Using a trapped $^{171}$Yb$+$ ion, we demonstrate an optical pumping scheme to suppress leakage errors in atomic hyperfine qubits. The selection rules and narrow linewidth of a quadrupole transition are used to selectively pump population out of leakage states and back into the qubit subspace. Each pumping cycle reduces the leakage population by a factor of $\sim3$, allowing for an exponential suppression in the number of cycles. We use interleaved randomized benchmarking on the qubit subspace to show that this pumping procedure has negligible side-effects on un-leaked qubits, bounding the induced qubit memory error by $\leq2.0(8)\times10^{-5}$ per cycle, and qubit population decay to $\leq1.4(3)\times10^{-7}$ per cycle. These results clear a major obstacle for implementations of quantum error correction and error mitigation protocols.

description: Directional coupling of light in nanophotonic circuits has recently attracted increasing interest, with numerous experimental realizations based on broken rotational or mirror symmetries of the light-matter system. The most prominent underlying effect is the spin-orbit interaction of light in subwavelength structures. Unfortunately, coupling of light to such structures is, in general, very inefficient. In this work, we experimentally demonstrate an order of magnitude enhancement of the directional coupling between two nanowaveguides by means of a whispering gallery microcavity. We also show that both transversmagnetic and transverse electric modes can be used for the enhancement.

description: A recent contribution by Meyer et al. (2009, p. 521) corrected an error of fact by Hardaker et al. (2004b, p. 253) about the comparison between stochastic dominance with respect to a function (SDRF) and stochastic efficiency with respect to a function (SERF). While both methods compare risky prospects for a bounded range of degrees of risk aversion, SERF, unlike SDRF, also demands an assumption that a chosen measure of risk aversion is constant over all levels of outcomes being evaluated. It is argued that it is generally reasonable to make such an assumption, especially when the form of the utility function and the bounds on the degree of risk aversion are carefully chosen. Then SERF has the advantage that it can lead to a smaller efficient set than that identified by SDRF. SERF also has advantages of ease and transparency in use.

description: Films made from random nanowire arrays are an attractive choice for electronics requiring flexible transparent conductive films. However, thus far there has been no unified theory for predicting their electrical conductivity. In particular, the effects of orientation distribution on network conductivity remain poorly understood. We present a simplified analytical model for random nanowire network electrical conductivity that is the first to accurately capture the effects of arbitrary nanowire orientation distributions on conductivity. Our model is an upper bound and converges to the true conductivity as nanowire density grows. The model replaces Monte Carlo sampling with an asymptotically faster computation and in practice can be computed much more quickly than standard computational models. The success of our approximation provides novel theoretical insight into how nanowire orientation affects electrical conductivity, illuminating directions for future research.

description: The GENIUS (Germanium in Liquid Nitrogen Underground Setup) project has been proposed in 1997 [KK-BEY97] as first third generation double beta decay project, with a sensitivity aiming down to a level of an effective neutrino mass of < 0.01eV or less. Such sensitivity is important to fix the structure of the neutrino mass matrix with high accuracy, which cannot be done by neutrino oscillation experiments alone. GENIUS will allow broad access also to many other topics of physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics at the multi-TeV scale. For search of cold dark matter GENIUS will cover a large part of the parameter space of predictions of SUSY for neutralinos as dark matter [Bed-KK2,Ell,KK-LowNu2]. Finally, GENIUS has the potential to be a real-time detector for low-energy (pp and 7{Be}) solar neutrinos [Bau-KK,KK-LowNu2]. A GENIUS-Test Facility has just been funded and will come into operation by end of 2002.

description: We introduce QuESTlink, pronounced "quest link", an open-source Mathematica package which efficiently emulates quantum computers. By integrating with the Quantum Exact Simulation Toolkit (QuEST), QuESTlink offers a high-level, expressive and usable interface to a high-performance, hardware-accelerated emulator. Requiring no installation, QuESTlink streamlines the powerful analysis capabilities of Mathematica into the study of quantum systems, even utilising remote multicore and GPU hardware. We demonstrate the use of QuESTlink to concisely and efficiently simulate several quantum algorithms, and present some comparative benchmarking against core QuEST.

description: A decade-long slowdown in the rural economy has often been blamed on overcautious lending institutions. To rectify that, legislators, both State and national, have proposed government programs to make rural credit more easily available. Such a solution, besides being expensive, may be based on faulty premises. Most of the slowdown, in fact, seems due more to weak business conditions rather than to reluctance by lenders. As a result, other less expensive programs may have more success. Alternative programs include establishing secondary markets for business loans and providing technical assistance to rural entrepreneurs.

description: The uniformity of the decomposition law, for a family F of Lie algebras which includes the exceptional Lie algebras, of the tensor powers ad^n of their adjoint representations ad is now well-known. This paper uses it to embark on the development of a unified tensor calculus for the exceptional Lie algebras. It deals explicitly with all the tensors that arise at the n=2 stage, obtaining a large body of systematic information about their properties and identities satisfied by them. Some results at the n=3 level are obtained, including a simple derivation of the the dimension and Casimir eigenvalue data for all the constituents of ad^3. This is vital input data for treating the set of all tensors that enter the picture at the n=3 level, following a path already known to be viable for a_1. The special way in which the Lie algebra d_4 conforms to its place in the family F alongside the exceptional Lie algebras is described.

description: The standard technique for sub-pixel estimation of atom positions from atomic resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy images relies on fitting intensity maxima or minima with a two-dimensional Gaussian function. While this is a widespread method of measurement, it can be error prone in images with non-zero aberrations, strong intensity differences between adjacent atoms or in situations where the neighboring atom positions approach the resolution limit of the microscope. Here we demonstrate mpfit, an atom finding algorithm that iteratively calculates a series of overlapping two-dimensional Gaussian functions to fit the experimental dataset and then subsequently uses a subset of the calculated Gaussian functions to perform sub-pixel refinement of atom positions. Based on both simulated and experimental datasets presented in this work, this approach gives lower errors when compared to the commonly used single Gaussian peak fitting approach and demonstrates increased robustness over a wider range of experimental conditions.
