description: Current enhancement- a novel quantum phenomena is found to occur in a mesoscopic hybrid ring at equilibrium. The hybrid system is described by a ring with bubble which is in turn coupled to a reservoir. In the system the ring encloses a magnetic flux $Φ$ while the bubble does not enclose any flux. The novelty of this work lies in the fact that while earlier current enhancement was observed in non-equilibrium systems (e.g., a ring coupled to two reservoirs at different chemical potentials $μ_{1}$ and $μ_{2}$), herein we prove that current enhancement can also arise in equilibrium. In addition, we show that the closed system analog of our chosen open hybrid ring system violates parity effects. Finally, we bring to focus the discrepancy between the equilibrium magnetic moment (obtained via energy eigenvalues) and that calculated from the currents in the system.

title: Mandarin-based Civic Scheme Impacts on Political Socialisation of Foreign Spouse Learners in Central Taipei’s Formal Citizenship Courses during the Ma Administrations: A Case Study
Creators: name: Su, Tsung-Hung
Publisher: name: Goldsmiths, University of London
Year: 2024

description: This thesis is an analysis of political socialisation of the foreign spouses during the KMT Ma administration I & II in Central Taipei. The research looks at the way that their political socialisation was affected by changes to the curricular guidelines for their citizenship courses. It seeks to show that civic education policy implementation in Taiwan had an over-scaled nationalist bias that impacted on foreign spouse learners. Fieldwork by means of in-depth interviews and classroom observations is integrated into a baseline analysis of governmental and NGO public discourses, marital immigration regulations and relevant reports. The thesis explicates the underlying cleavages in the struggles over pathways to citizenship that have created a complex series of links in the political socialisation of new migrants. It thus examines how the Ma administrations addressed integration and dealt with related issues of multiculturalism. It is hoped that this study sheds new light upon the discrimination experienced by the learners which, in turn, motivated their empowerment through participation in socio-political movements against prejudice.

description: The present theoretical knowledge about photons and hard photoproduction processes, i.e. the production of jets, light and heavy hadrons, quarkonia, and prompt photons in photon-photon and photon-hadron collisions, is reviewed. Virtual and polarized photons and prompt photon production in hadron collisions are also discussed. The most important leading and next-to-leading order QCD results are compiled in analytic form. A large variety of numerical predictions is compared to data from TRISTAN, LEP, and HERA and extended to future electron and muon colliders. The sources of all relevant results are collected in a rich bibliography.

Asymptotic conformal symmetry at spatial infinity

description: In this paper, the effects of adding spatial conformal symmetry to the asymptotic symmetry group of an asymptotically conformally flat spacetime are studied. It is shown that, in addition to the BMS group, only the dilations of the spatial conformal generators keep the corresponding boundary conditions conformally invariant under hypersurface deformations. We prove that in order to attain (i) a well-defined symplectic structure and (ii) a finite and (iii) integrable conserved charge, these conditions are satisfied simultaneously when admitting Regge-Teitelboim and twisted Henneaux-Troessaert parity conditions, where the latter also contain supertranslation invariance. The conserved dilation charge contains nonzero terms independent of the field variables, giving a nonvanishing effect on the boundary. The dilation symmetry also modifies the ADM mass, which is another physical effect of the conformal symmetry.
description: Some minor changes have been made according to the published version. (previous version comments: The new "twisted Henneaux-Troessaert" parity has been included in the parity conditions and the related results have been presented. Some comments regarding the conformal invariance of the constraints have been added to the subsection on equations of motion.)

description: A general scheme for analyzing reductions of Whitham hierarchies is presented. It is based on a method for determining the $S$-function by means of a system of first order partial differential equations. Compatibility systems of differential equations characterizing both reductions and hodograph solutions of Whitham hierarchies are obtained. The method is illustrated by exhibiting solutions of integrable models such as the dispersionless Toda equation (heavenly equation) and the generalized Benney system.

description: ICARDA (the International Centre for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas) in Syria conducts research aimed at developing countries. Australian agriculture has received spillover benefits from that research. This paper reports on a study that aims to quantify the benefits of the spillover impact on Australian agriculture from ICARDA's research into kabuli chickpeas. Australian producers gain from the improved genetic materials obtained from ICARDA, but face lower prices from the success of ICARDA in other countries. The net spillover benefits for Australia are identified, and the implications of such benefits are discussed.

description: It was recently suggested that possible small volations of Lorentz invariance could explain the existence of UHECR beyond the GZK cutoff and the observations of multi-TeV gamma-rays from Mkn 501. Our analysis of Lorentz-violating kinematics shows that in addition to the modified threshold conditions solving cosmic ray puzzles we should expect a strong suppression of electromagnetic processes like bremsstrahlung and pair creation. This leads to drastic effects in electron-photon cascade development in the atmosphere and in detectors.

Dual model for magnetic excitations and superconductivity in UPd2Al3

description: The Heavy Fermion state in UPd2Al3 may be approximately described by a dual model where two of the three U- 5f electrons are in a localized state split by the crystalline electric field into two low lying singlets with a splitting energy of about 6 meV. The third 5f electron has itinerant character and forms the Heavy Electron bands. Inelastic neutron scattering and tunneling experiments suggest that magnetic excitons, the collective propagating crystal field excitations of the localized 5f electrons, mediate superconducting (sc) pairing in UPd2Al3. A theory for this novel mechanism is developed within a nonretarded approach. A model for the magnetic exciton bands is analyzed and compared with experiment. The sc pair potential which they mediate is derived and the gap equations are solved. It is shown that this mechanism favors an odd parity state which is nondegenerate due to the combined symmetry breaking by the crystalline electric field and the AF order parameter. A hybrid model including the spin fluctuation contribution to the pairing is also discussed.

description: We investigate whether present data on helioseismology and solar neutrino fluxes may constrain WIMP--matter interactions in the range of WIMP parameters under current exploration in WIMP searches. We find that, for a WIMP mass of 30 GeV, once the effect of the presence of WIMPs in the Sun's interior is maximized, the squared isothermal sound speed is modified, with respect to the standard solar model, by at most 0.4% at the Sun's center. The maximal effect on the Boron-8 solar neutrino flux is a reduction of 4.5%. Larger masses lead to smaller effects. These results imply that present sensitivities in the measurements of solar properties, though greatly improved in recent years, do not provide information or constraints on WIMP properties of relevance for dark matter. Furthermore, we show that, when current bounds from direct WIMP searches are taken into account, the effect induced by WIMPs with dominant coherent interactions are drastically reduced as compared to the values quoted above. The case of neutralinos in the minimal supersymmetric standard model is also discussed.

description: Recent work indicates that the joint effects of intermediate input and final output tariff reforms on equilibrium in the differentiated final products sector are analytically ambiguous. This issue is addressed empirically for disaggregate, imperfectly competitive U.S. food manufacturing industries. The input tariff effect dominates in most industries, leading to increases in the number of U.S. firms and total industry output as a result of tariff reform. This provides evidence that the existing U.S. tariff profile discriminates against domestic food manufacturers, as input tariff effects outweigh the protection offered by output tariffs. This conclusion is robust to changes in the degree of interfirm rivalry (monopolistic competition or cournot oligopoly).

description: We comment on a recent letter by L. C. de Albuquerque and M. M. Leite (J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 34 (2001) L327-L332), in which results to second order in $ε=4-d+\frac{m}{2}$ were presented for the critical exponents $ν_{\mathrm{L}2}$, $η_{\mathrm{L}2}$ and $γ_{\mathrm{L}2}$ of d-dimensional systems at m-axial Lifshitz points. We point out that their results are at variance with ours. The discrepancy is due to their incorrect computation of momentum-space integrals. Their speculation that the field-theoretic renormalization group approach, if performed in position space, might give results different from when it is performed in momentum space is refuted.

description: Assuming that the number of possible decisions for a transmitter (e.g., the number of possible beamforming vectors) has to be finite and is given, this paper investigates for the first time the problem of determining the best decision set when energy-efficiency maximization is pursued. We propose a framework to find a good (finite) decision set which induces a minimal performance loss w.r.t. to the continuous case. We exploit this framework for a scenario of energy-efficient MIMO communications in which transmit power and beamforming vectors have to be adapted jointly to the channel given under finite-rate feedback. To determine a good decision set we propose an algorithm which combines the approach of Invasive Weed Optimization (IWO) and an Evolutionary Algorithm (EA). We provide a numerical analysis which illustrates the benefits of our point of view. In particular, given a performance loss level, the feedback rate can by reduced by 2 when the transmit decision set has been designed properly by using our algorithm. The impact on energy-efficiency is also seen to be significant.

description: A model combining perturbative and non-perturbative QCD is developed to compute high-energy reactions of hadrons and photons and to investigate saturation effects that manifest the S-matrix unitarity. Following a functional integral approach, the S-matrix factorizes into light-cone wave functions and the universal amplitude for the scattering of two color-dipoles which are represented by Wegner-Wilson loops. In the framework of the non-perturbative stochastic vacuum model of QCD supplemented by perturbative gluon exchange, the loop-loop correlation is calculated and related to lattice QCD investigations. With a universal energy dependence motivated by the two-pomeron (soft + hard) picture that respects the unitarity condition in impact parameter space, a unified description of pp, pip, Kp, gamma* p, and gamma gamma reactions is achieved in good agreement with experimental data for cross sections, slope parameters, and structure functions. Impact parameter profiles for pp and longitudinal gamma* p reactions and the gluon distribution of the proton xG(x,Q^2,b) are calculated and found to saturate in accordance with S-matrix unitarity. The c.m. energies and Bjorken x at which saturation sets in are determined.

description: The Drought Management Plans (DMPs) are a regulatory instrument that establishes priorities among the different water uses and defines more stringent constraints to access to publicly provided water during droughts, especially for non-priority uses such as agriculture. These plans have recently become widespread across EU southern basins. Shockingly, in some of these basins the plans were approved without an assessment of the potential impacts that they may have over the economic activities exposed to water restrictions. This paper develops a stochastic methodology to estimate the expected water availability in agriculture that results from the decision rules of the recently approved DMPs. The methodology is applied to the particular case of the Guadalquivir River Basin in southern Spain. Results show that if the DMPs are successfully enforced, available water will satisfy in average 62.2% of the annual demand. This is much lower than the minimum water access reliability of 90% that the Spanish law has assured to irrigators so far

description: We show that current and imminent underground detectors are capable of precision astrometry of dark matter. First we show that galactic dark matter velocity distributions can be obtained from reconstructed tracks of dark matter scattering on multiple nuclei during transit; using the liquid scintillator neutrino detector SNO+ as an example, we find that the dark matter velocity vector can be reconstructed event-by-event with such a small uncertainty, that the precision of dark matter astrometry will be limited mainly by statistics. We then determine the number of dark matter events required to determine the dispersion speed, escape speed, and velocity anisotropies of the local dark matter halo, and also find that with as few as $\mathcal{O}(10)$ events, dark matter signals may be discriminated from potential backgrounds arising as power-law distributions. Finally, we discuss the prospects of dark matter astrometry at other liquid scintillator detectors, dark matter experiments, and the recently proposed MATHUSLA detector.

description: Aims. We investigate the evolution of X-ray selected tidal disruption events. Methods. New events are found in near-real time data from XMM-Newton slews and are monitored by multi-wavelength facilities. Results. In August 2016, X-ray emission was detected from the galaxy XMMSL2 J144605.0+685735 (a.k.a. 2MASX 14460522+6857311), a factor 20 times higher than an upper limit from 25 years earlier. The X-ray flux was flat for ~100 days and then fell by a factor 100 over the following 500 days. The UV flux was stable for the first 400 days before fading by a magnitude, while the optical (U,B,V bands) have been roughly constant for 850 days. Optically, the galaxy appears to be quiescent, at a distance of $127\pm{4}$ Mpc (z=$0.029\pm{0.001}$) with a spectrum consisting of a young stellar population of age 1-5 Gyr, an older population and a total stellar mass of ~6 x $10^{9}$ solar masses. The bolometric luminosity peaked at L bol ~ $10^{43}$ ergs s$^{-1}$ with an X-ray spectrum that may be modeled by a power-law of $Γ$~2.6 or Comptonisation of a low-temperature thermal component by thermal electrons. We consider a tidal disruption event to be the most likely cause of the flare. Radio emission was absent in this event down to < 10$μ$Jy, which limits the total energy of a hypothetical off-axis jet to E < 5 x $10^{50}$ ergs. The independent behaviour of the optical, UV and X-ray light curves challenges models where the UV emission is produced by reprocessing of thermal nuclear emission or by stream-stream collisions. We suggest that the observed UV emission may have been produced from a truncated accretion disk and the X-rays from Compton upscattering of these disk photons.

description: In recent literature a relevant problem has been the relationship between career/personal contact networks and different career paths. In addition, the recent advances in social capital theory have shown the way in which networks impact on personal careers. In particular women’s careers appear to be negatively affected by the informational network structure. The main contribution of this work is to propose empirical evidence of this phenomenon by considering the gendered directorship network with relation to Austria and to show the structural differences by gender in the network. By using community detection techniques we have found various communities in which females seem not to be present at all, where females show significantly fewer contacts than males in the network, and finally where the proportion of males exceeds 91%. The results show the predominant role in the network of male directors; these differences are very relevant if we consider the network as a tool of vehicle information and as a power mechanism. In this paper we wish to make an original contribution to the debate of the well-known “glass-ceiling” effect

description: The energy spectra of ultra high energy cosmic rays reported by the AGASA, Fly's Eye, Haverah Park, HiRes, and Yakutsk experiments are all shown to be in agreement with each other for energies below 10^{20} eV (after small adjustments, within the known uncertainties, of the absolute energy scales). The data from HiRes, Fly's Eye, and Yakutsk are consistent with the expected flux suppression above 5\times 10^{19} eV due to interactions of cosmic rays with the cosmic microwave background, the Greisen-Zatsepin-Kuzmin (GZK) "supression," and are inconsistent with a smooth extrapolation of the observed cosmic ray energy spectrum to energies > 5\times 10^{19}$ eV. AGASA data show an excess of events above 10^{20} eV, compared to the predicted GZK suppression and to the flux measured by the other experiments.

description: Water is a key input in the production of many goods and services and under certain conditions can become a critical limiting factor with significant impacts on regional development. This is the case of many agricultural European Mediterranean basins, where water deficit during drought events is partially covered by illegal abstractions, mostly from aquifers, which are tolerated by the authorities. Groundwater overexploitation for irrigation has created in these areas an unprecedented environmental catastrophe that threatens ecosystems sustainability, urban water supply and the current model of development. Market-based drought insurance systems have the potential to introduce the necessary incentives to reduce overexploitation during drought events and remove the high costs of the drought indemnity paid by the government. This paper develops a methodology to obtain the optimum risk premium based on concatenated stochastic models. The methodology is applied to the agricultural district of Campo de Cartagena (Segura River Basin, Spain). Results show that the prices in a hypothetic competitive private drought insurance market would be reasonable and the expected environmental outcomes significant

description: The standard neoclassical growth model with Cobb-Douglas production predicts a monotonically declining saving rate, when reasonably calibrated. Ample empirical evidence, however, shows that the transition paths of most countries’ saving rates exhibit a statistically significant hump-shaped pattern. Prior literature shows that CES production may imply a hump-shaped pattern of the saving rate (Goméz, 2008). However, the implied magnitude of the hump falls short of what is seen in empirical data. We introduce two non-standard features of preferences into a neoclassical growth model with CES production: hyperbolic discounting and short planning horizons. We show that, in contrast to the commonly accepted argument, in general (except for the special case of logarithmic utility) a model with hyperbolic discounting is not observationally equivalent to one with exponential discounting. We also show that our framework implies a hump-shaped saving rate dynamics that is consistent with empirical evidence. Hyperbolic discounting turns out to be a major factor explaining the magnitude of the hump of the saving rate path. Numerical simulations employing a generalized class of hyperbolic discount functions, which we term regular discount functions, support the results.

description: The recent gravitational wave measurements have demonstrated the existence of stellar mass black hole binaries. It is essential for our understanding of massive star evolution to identify the contribution of binary evolution to the formation of double black holes. A promising way to progress is investigating the progenitors of double black hole systems and comparing predictions with local massive star samples such as the population in 30 Doradus in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Methods. To this purpose, we analyse a large grid of detailed binary evolution models at LMC metallicity with initial primary masses between 10 and 40 Msun, and identify which model systems potentially evolve into a binary consisting of a black hole and a massive main sequence star. We then derive the observable properties of such systems, as well as peculiarities of the OB star component. We find that about 3% of the LMC late O and early B stars in binaries are expected to possess a black hole companion, when assuming stars with a final helium core mass above 6.6 M to form black holes. While the vast majority of them may be X-ray quiet, our models suggest that these may be identified in spectroscopic binaries, either by large amplitude radial velocity variations ( > 50 km s ) and simultaneous nitrogen surface enrichment, or through a moderate radial velocity ( > 10 km/s ) and simultaneously rapid rotation of the OB star. The predicted mass ratios are such that main sequence companions could be excluded in most cases. A comparison to the observed OB+WR binaries in the LMC, Be/X-ray binaries, and known massive BH binaries supports our conclusion. We expect spectroscopic observations to be able to test key assumptions in our models, with important implications for massive star evolution in general, and for the formation of double-black hole mergers in particular.

description: We introduce an approximation scheme for the Hodgkin-Huxley model of nerve conductance which allows to calculate both the speed of the traveling pulses and their shape in quantitative agreement with the solutions of the model. We demonstrate that the reduced problem for the front of the traveling pulse admits a unique solution. We obtain an explicit analytical expression for the speed of the pulses which is valid with good accuracy in a wide range of the parameters.

title: Antioxidant capacity and phenolic profiles of lentils as affected by processing
Creators: name: Yeo, JuDong
Publisher: name: Memorial University of Newfoundland

description: Lentils are excellent sources of dietary fibre, carbohydrates, proteins, various vitamins, minerals, and bioactive compounds such as phenolic compounds. Epidemiological studies have reported their effects in lowering cholesterol and reducing the incidence of colon cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and type-2-diabetes. In the present study, effects of germination, hydrothermal (boiling) treatment, and dehulling on the antioxidant capacity of soluble- and insoluble-bound phenolics of lentils were examined. Upon germination, an increasing trend in the antioxidant capacity in the insoluble-bound phenolics (IBPs) and a declining trend in that of the soluble phenolics (except total phenolic contents) were observed during 4 days of germination. Based on the results, a new indicator, the ratio of insoluble-bound phenolics to soluble phenolics (SPs), was suggested as an effective means to monitor changes in the antioxidant activity of lentils during germination. The hydrothermal/boiling process also led to important findings. As expected, the hydrothermal process decreased the content of insoluble-bound phenolics in the lentil cultivars tested due to the release of bound phenolics from cell wall matrices. Interestingly, the decrease of bound phenolics was not proportionally reflected in the increase of soluble phenolics, possibly due to the loss of phenolics during the hydrothermal process via interaction with proteins and other seed components. Among lentil cultivars used, the hulls of 3494-6 showed the most effective antioxidant potential, while Maxim displayed the lowest in most measurements. Meanwhile, the dehulling process revealed the predominant distribution of phenolics in the hulls as compared to the dehulled grains, as observed for both soluble- and insoluble-bound phenolics of lentils in their antioxidant potential and inhibitory activities against oxidation of LDL cholesterol and DNA strand breakage. In the HPLC-ESI- MSᴺ analysis, different classes of soluble phenolics such as phenolic acids, flavonoids, and proanthocyanidins were found in the hulls of all four tested lentil cultivars examined. The insoluble-bound phenolics has often been ignored in many evaluations by different research groups and hence this work has expanded the depth of knowledge in the field of food phenolics.
