description: As an explosion develops in the collapsed core of a massive star, neutrino emission drives convection in a hot bubble of radiation, nucleons, and pairs just outside a proto-neutron star. Shortly thereafter, neutrinos drive a wind-like outflow from the neutron star. In both the convective bubble and the early wind, weak interactions temporarily cause a proton excess (Ye > 0.5) to develop in the ejected matter. This situation lasts for at least the first second, and the approximately 0.05 - 0.1 solar masses that is ejected has an unusual composition that may be important for nucleosynthesis. Using tracer particles to follow the conditions in a two-dimensional model of a successful supernova explosion calculated by Janka, Buras & Rampp (2003), we determine the composition of this material. Most of it is helium and 56Ni. The rest is relatively rare species produced by the decay of proton-rich isotopes unstable to positron emission. In the absence of pronounced charged-current neutrino capture, nuclear flow will be held up by long-lived waiting point nuclei in the vicinity of 64Ge. The resulting abundance pattern can be modestly rich in a few interesting rare isotopes like 45Sc, 49Ti, and 64Zn. The present calculations imply yields that, when compared with the production of major species in the rest of the supernova, are about those needed to account for the solar abundance of 45Sc and 49Ti. Since the synthesis will be nearly the same in stars of high and low metallicity, the primary production of these species may have discernible signatures in the abundances of low metallicity stars. We also discuss uncertainties in the nuclear physics and early supernova evolution to which abundances of interesting nuclei are sensitive.

description: The dissociative ionization of $H_2^+$ in linearly polarized, 400 nm laser pulses is simulated by solving a three-particle time-dependent Schrödinger equation in full dimensionality. The joint energy spectra (JES) are computed for $\cos^8$ and flat-top envelopes using the time-dependent surface flux (tSurff) methods. In JES, the energy sharing $n$ photon energies $ω$ of nuclear kinetic energy release (KER) $E_N$ and electronic KER $E_e$ are well represented by $E_N+E_e=nω-U_p+E_0$ for $\cos^8$ pulses, but satisfy $E_N+E_e=nω+E_0$ for flat-top envelope, exposing a deviation of the ponderomotive energy $U_p$, which has been observed in experiments, where $E_0$ is the ground energy of $H_2^+$. The analysis of the wavefunction for electrons and protons after the pulse are presented, where we find $U_p$ is absorbed by the Freeman resonances between two excited ungerade states.

description: Despite the launch of a new strategy for growth in Europe (the Europe 2020 strategy) and the ongoing efforts to design a new international financial architecture, prospects for an economic recovery of Europe remain dim. Public deficits and debts will have to be reduced at a faster pace, with contractionary effects unless a strong recovery of private expenditure will materialize. Financial re-regulation is projected to further depress the economy by imposing higher capital ratios, lower leverage, a late (though welcome) discipline of liquidity. The compound effect of the two policy trends pose a serious threat on the social sustainability of the European social market economy. JEL: H6, F3, O52

description: The quantum adversary method is one of the most versatile lower-bound methods for quantum algorithms. We show that all known variants of this method are equivalent: spectral adversary (Barnum, Saks, and Szegedy, 2003), weighted adversary (Ambainis, 2003), strong weighted adversary (Zhang, 2005), and the Kolmogorov complexity adversary (Laplante and Magniez, 2004). We also pa few new equivalent formulations of the method. This shows that there is essentially _one_ quantum adversary method. From our approach, all known limitations of these versions of the quantum adversary method easily follow.

description: Inverse problems are essential to imaging applications. In this paper, we propose a model-based deep learning network, named FISTA-Net, by combining the merits of interpretability and generality of the model-based Fast Iterative Shrinkage/Thresholding Algorithm (FISTA) and strong regularization and tuning-free advantages of the data-driven neural network. By unfolding the FISTA into a deep network, the architecture of FISTA-Net consists of multiple gradient descent, proximal mapping, and momentum modules in cascade. Different from FISTA, the gradient matrix in FISTA-Net can be updated during iteration and a proximal operator network is developed for nonlinear thresholding which can be learned through end-to-end training. Key parameters of FISTA-Net including the gradient step size, thresholding value and momentum scalar are tuning-free and learned from training data rather than hand-crafted. We further impose positive and monotonous constraints on these parameters to ensure they converge properly. The experimental results, evaluated both visually and quantitatively, show that the FISTA-Net can optimize parameters for different imaging tasks, i.e. Electromagnetic Tomography (EMT) and X-ray Computational Tomography (X-ray CT). It outperforms the state-of-the-art model-based and deep learning methods and exhibits good generalization ability over other competitive learning-based approaches under different noise levels.

So lässt sich die Entwicklung des ehemligen Dominikanerinnenklosters im oberösterreichischen Windhaag bei Perg zusammenfassen. Denn wo früher das umschlossene claustrum der Einkehr nach Innen diente, nimmt jetzt die Off entlichkeit platz. Wo früher der Zugang kontrolliert oder unterbunden, Körper und Blick diszipliniert werden mussten, werden heute Schwellen abgebaut, ist Zugänglichkeit gefordert. Wo sich früher gottesfürchtige Schlichtheit präsentierte, ist heute eine Pluralität vorzufi nden die diesen Wandel vom Kloster zum Ort wiederspiegelt. Doch wie geht die Denkmalpflege mit dieser Entwicklung um, wie wird diese gewichtet und welche Möglichkeiten gibt es um der gemeinschaftlichen Aneignung auch in zukünftigen Entwicklungen gerecht zu werden und das, was einst Ausgangspunkt der Ortsentwicklung war, auch wieder in den Fokus des öff entlichen Lebens zu rücken.

description: A novel efficient method to calculate the scattering matrix (SM) of arbitrary tight-binding Hamiltonians is proposed, including cases with multiterminal structures. In particular, the SM of two kind of fundamental structures are given, which can be used to obtain the SM of bigger systems iteratively. Also, a procedure to obtain the SM of layer-composed periodic leads is described. This method allows renormalization approaches, which permits computations over macroscopic length systems without introducing additional approximations. Finally, the transmission coefficient of a ring-shaped multiterminal system and the transmission function of a square-lattice nanoribbon with a reduced width region are calculated.

Perché la teoria post-keynesiana non è dominante. (Why the post-keynesian theory is not dominant)
Creators: name: Reati, Angelo
Publisher: name: Moneta e Credito
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: teoria post-keynesiana
subject: B50; B31; E12

description: The first part of this review of the Pasinetti’s (2010) book on the Keynesian school summarizes the reasons why the Kyenesian theory was an “unaccomplished scientific revolution”. As explained by Pasinetti, Keynes neglected some essential building blocks of his theoretical construction, and the Cambridge Keynesians did not fill the gap completely. This prevented the classical/Keynesian paradigm to prevail with respect to its Marginalist-Neoclassical rival. The present theoretical impasse – Pasinetti argues – can be overcome by the adoption of the methodological device of the “separation principle” by distinguishing the phase of “pure theory”, to be elaborated at a logical stage that precedes institutions, from the (applied) institutional analysis. In the second part of the paper I show that, while Pasinetti’s suggestion is fully valid, the theoretical strength of a paradigm is a necessary but not sufficient condition for becoming dominant. As the last decades show, the success or failure of a paradigm is also crucially dependent on social and power relations in society. JEL: B50; B31; E12

Imaging dendritic spine structural plasticity during development in vitro and after acute stroke in vivo
Creators: name: Zhang, Shengxiang
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The plasticity of dendritic spine structure is important for neural development and synaptic function and is altered in many pathological conditions. In this study, we investigated the mechanisms underlying spine structural plasticity during development and the pathological changes in spine structure during ischemic stroke by using confocal and two-photon microscopy. We first investigated spine structural dynamics during development and the role of intracellular Ca²⁺ in determining basal spine motility in cultured hippocampal neurons. We found that young cultured neurons displayed significantly more spine motility than older neurons. In addition, we found that global buffering of intracellular Ca²⁺ failed to alter the basal motility of developing spines. Thus basal spine motility may represent an intrinsic feature of developing neurons and is not necessarily choreographed by ongoing changes in intracellular Ca²⁺ levels. We then examined spine structure changes during cerebral ischemia in vivo and investigated the relationships between cortical microcirculation and spine structure and function. We found moderate ischemia did not significantly affect spines within a 5-h time span; however, severe ischemia caused a rapid loss of spines and induced beading of dendrite structure within as little as 10 min following stroke. Surprisingly this damage was found to be reversible if reperfusion occurred within 20-60 min. By monitoring both cortical microcirculation and dendritic spine structure, we found that dendritic integrity deteriorated proportionally with the fraction of blocked vessels and the volume of affected brain during stroke. In ischemic border regions, we demonstrated that intact dendritic structure could be stably maintained for hours by blood flow from vessels that were on average 81 μm away. Functional imaging of intrinsic optical signals indicated that signal changes induced by limb movement were blocked in areas with blebbed dendrites, but were present at ~225 μm and beyond from the border of dendritic damage, suggesting peri-infarct tissues could function under acute ischemia in the core. In summary, our findings indicate that basal spine motility is maintained in a Ca²⁺ independent manner, and changes in spine structure during ischemia can now be directly linked to alterations in synaptic function and reductions in the cortical microcirculation.
Kuramoto model with additional nearest-neighbor interactions: Existence of a nonequilibrium tricritical point

description: A paradigmatic framework to study the phenomenon of spontaneous collective synchronization is provided by the Kuramoto model comprising a large collection of limit-cycle oscillators of distributed frequencies that are globally coupled through the sine of their phase differences. We study here a variation of the model by including nearest-neighbor interactions on a one-dimensional lattice. While the mean-field interaction resulting from the global coupling favors global synchrony, the nearest-neighbor interaction may have cooperative or competitive effects depending on the sign and the magnitude of the nearest-neighbor coupling. For unimodal and symmetric frequency distributions, we demonstrate that as a result, the model in the stationary state exhibits in contrast to the usual Kuramoto model both continuous and first-order transitions between synchronized and incoherent phases, with the transition lines meeting at a tricritical point. Our results are based on numerical integration of the dynamics as well as an approximate theory involving appropriate averaging of fluctuations in the stationary state.

description: We explore the physical properties of a unified microscopic theory for the coexistence of superconductivity and charge density waves in two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides. In the case of particle-hole symmetry the elementary particles are Dirac fermions at the nodes of the charge density wave gap. When particle-hole symmetry is broken electron (hole) pockets are formed around the Fermi surface. The superconducting ground state emerges from the pairing of nodal quasi-particles mediated by acoustic phonons via a piezoelectric coupling. We calculate several properties in the s-wave superconducting phase, including specific heat, ultra-sound absorption, nuclear magnetic relaxation, thermal, and optical conductivities. In the case with particle-hole symmetry, the specific heat jump at the transition deviates strongly from ordinary superconductors. The nuclear magnetic response shows an anomalous anisotropy due to the broken time-reversal symmetry of the superconducting gap, induced by the triple charge density wave state. The loss of lattice inversion symmetry in the charge density wave phase leads to anomalous coherence factors in the optical conductivity and to the appearance of an absorption edge at the optical gap energy. Furthermore, optical and thermal conductivities display anomalous peaks in the infrared when particle-hole symmetry is broken.

description: In information systems security, the objectives of risk analysis process are to help to identify new threats and vulnerabilities, to estimate their business impact and to provide a dynamic set of tools to control the security level of the information system. The identification of risk factors as well as the estimation of their business impact require tools for assessment of risk with multi-value scales according to different stakeholders’ point of view. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to model risk analysis decision making problem using semantic network to develop the decision network and the Analytical Network Process (ANP) that allows solving complex problems taking into consideration quantitative and qualitative data. As a decision support technique ANP also measures the dependency among risk factors related to the elicitation of individual judgement. An empirical study involving the Forestry Company is used to illustrate the relevance of ANP.

Historisch bestätigt und später mit wissenschaftlichen Tests beweisen, wie sehr sich das Thermalwasser Sanske Ilidze positiv auswirkt bei der Rehabilitation von rheumatischen und neurologischen Erkrankungen, sowie auch bei Sportverletzungen, ist das Heilwasser in dieser Form einzigartig in diesem Teil Europas. Das Potenzial dieser Heilquelle wurde immer mehr erkannt und die vorhandenen Räumlichkeiten konnten der Nachfrage nicht mehr gerecht werden. In Bezug dessen wurden neue Investitionen seitens der Gemeinde geplant um das Thermalwasser bestmöglich für die Region zu nutzen. So ist auch die Idee zur Planung eines Therme-Komplexes im Rahmen einer Masterarbeit entstanden.

The potential of this mineral spring has been increasingly recognized, and the available space could no longer meet the demand. Therefore, the municipality, to use the thermal water in the best way for the region, planned new investments. So raised the idea to make a thermal bath complex as part of my Masters thesis.

description: CLEAN, the commonly employed imaging algorithm in radio interferometry, suffers from a number of shortcomings: in its basic version it does not have the concept of diffuse flux, and the common practice of convolving the CLEAN components with the CLEAN beam erases the potential for super-resolution; it does not output uncertainty information; it produces images with unphysical negative flux regions; and its results are highly dependent on the so-called weighting scheme as well as on any human choice of CLEAN masks to guiding the imaging. Here, we present the Bayesian imaging algorithm resolve which solves the above problems and naturally leads to super-resolution. We take a VLA observation of Cygnus~A at four different frequencies and image it with single-scale CLEAN, multi-scale CLEAN and resolve. Alongside the sky brightness distribution resolve estimates a baseline-dependent correction function for the noise budget, the Bayesian equivalent of weighting schemes. We report noise correction factors between 0.4 and 429. The enhancements achieved by resolve come at the cost of higher computational effort.

description: We investigate a scenario with two $AdS_4$ branes in an $AdS_5$ bulk. In this scenario there are two gravitons and we investigate the role played by each of them for different positions of the second brane. We show that both gravitons play a significant role only when the turn-around point in the warp factor is approximately equidistant from both branes. We find that the ultralight mode becomes heavy as the second brane approaches the turn-around point, and the physics begins to resemble that of the RS model. Thus we demonstrate the crucial role played by the turn-around in the warp factor in enabling the presence of both gravitons.

As a consequence, superfluidity is not possible in commensurate solids which break continuous translation symmetry.

Taking into account that Mexico is the world's largest exporter of this fruit in terms of quantity; we can conclude that a relatively small area produces most of the blackberries that are traded worldwide. The paper aims to analyze the blackberry value chain and its local socio-economic impact. The main conclusion is that the global value chain of blackberries brings benefits for the small farmers and investors too, but it is necessary establish contract terms ensuring that contractors do not abuse their market power. Also it was demonstated the positive local socio-economic impact of the activity.

description: The relation between the zero-age main sequence mass of a star and its white-dwarf remnant (the initial-final mass relation) is a powerful tool for exploration of mass loss processes during stellar evolution. We present an empirical derivation of the initial-final mass relation based on spectroscopic analysis of seven massive white dwarfs in NGC 2168 (M35). Using an internally consistent data set, we show that the resultant white dwarf mass increases monotonically with progenitor mass for masses greater than 4 solar masses, one of the first open clusters to show this trend. We also find two massive white dwarfs foreground to the cluster that are otherwise consistent with cluster membership. These white dwarfs can be explained as former cluster members moving steadily away from the cluster at speeds of =5.8 solar masses at the 90% confidence level for a cluster age of 150 Myr.

description: In this work, we reported a ubiquitous presence of topological Floquet time crystal (TFTC) in one-dimensional periodically-driven systems. The rigidity and realization of spontaneous discrete time-translation symmetry (DTS) breaking in our model require necessarily coexistence of anomalous topological invariants (0 modes and $π$ modes), instead of the presence of disorders or many-body localization. We found that in a particular frequency range of the underlying drive, the anomalous Floquet phase coexistence between zero and pi modes can produce the period-doubling (2T, two cycles of the drive) that breaks the spontaneously, leading to the subharmonic response ($ω/2$, half the drive frequency). The rigid period-oscillation is topologically-protected against perturbations due to both non-trivially opening of 0 and $π$-gaps in the quasienergy spectrum, thus, as a result, can be viewed as a specific "Rabi oscillation" between two Floquet eigenstates with certain quasienergy splitting $π/T$. Our modeling of the time-crystalline 'ground state' can be easily realized in experimental platforms such as topological photonics and ultracold fields. Also, our work can bring significant interests to explore topological phase transition in Floquet systems and to bridge the gap between Floquet topological insulators and photonics, and period-doubled time crystals.

description: An increasing share of people and economic activities are attracted by the cities. This fact shows positive aspects and at the same time causes challenges, mainly in reference to the soil whose ecosystem services can be disrupted when the land cover is modified. Therefore, urbanization is a critical issue for the land management. Contrasting the urban sprawl (i.e. the spontaneous, unplanned process transforming vegetated land covers into artificial ones) is relevant for soil protection in terms of minimizing the land take. Remote sensing technologies have provided support (with an ex-post approach) to understand urban sprawl as a process and to assess its impacts on the sustainability of land management. The current availability of high-resolution/ very-high-resolution (HR/VHR) satellite data suggests to explore a different approach, aiming to deploy timely adequate countermeasures. The analysis of the urban sprawl processes pinpoints how the induced land cover changes show some specific patterns; moreover, distinctive trajectories in the space of multitemporal / multispectral imagery data can be elicited, relying also upon vegetation indices as the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI). Accordingly, suitable precursors of urban sprawl processes can be detected. Such precursors can support a novel ex-ante approach in preventing the consolidation of the outcomes of the urban sprawl processes.

description: Sub-Saharan Africa lost its status as a net exporter of agricultural products in the early 1980s when prices for raw commodities fell and local production stagnated. Since then, agricultural imports have grown faster than agricultural exports. In order to get to the bottom of this critical issue, UNIDO in partnership with the AU, IFAD, AfDB, FAO, and UNECA, developed the African Agribusiness and Agro-Industries Development Initiative (3ADI). The major objective of the 3ADI is to increase private sector investment flows going into the agriculture sector in Africa by mobilizing resources for agribusiness and agro-industrial development from the domestic, regional or international financial systems. This formed the basis of research with the objective of assessing the value addition chain for some vital agricultural commodities in the 3ADI focus countries. UNIDO is developing several action plans in a few African countries – one of them is Tanzania. In the case of Tanzania, the findings show the potential in cashew nuts. The paper’s main goal is to propose a plan or set of steps leading to the improvement of added value generation in the area of agricultural trade in Tanzania. The paper is focused on one commodity Cashew-nuts. Tanzania boosts high volumes of local supply of this commodity, which is the key prerequisite for the value addition chain through local processing. The results from the analysis prove significant economic losses related to the current structure of Tanzanian trade in cashew nuts. The main problem of the current cashew nut trade activities is the very low added value of exported cashew nuts. The paper analyses the structure of value added activities related to the cashew nut trade and proposes a plan for increasing the share of processed cashew nuts at a much higher unit price in comparison to raw cashew nuts. The simulated development in the cashew sector in Tanzania to the year 2030 is based on two expectations a 5% increase of evaluation of particular steps and a 5% growth of processed cashew nuts export volume resulting in significant growth of export incomes and provides an important material stimulating discussion related to the importance of the transformation of the export structure from unprocessed raw products to processed – finalized products.

description: A description of many-particle systems, which is more fundamental than the fluid approach, is to consider them as a kinetic gas. In this approach the dynamical variable in which the properties of the system are encoded, is the distribution of the gas particles in position and velocity space, called 1-particle distribution function (1PDF). However, when the gravitational field of a kinetic gas is derived via the Einstein-Vlasov equations, the information about the velocity distribution of the gas particles is averaged out and therefore lost. We propose to derive the gravitational field of a kinetic gas directly from its 1PDF, taking the velocity distribution fully into account. We conjecture that this refined approach could possibly account for the observed dark energy phenomenology.

description: M theory compactifications on G_2 holonomy manifolds, whilst supersymmetric, require singularities in order to obtain non-Abelian gauge groups, chiral fermions and other properties necessary for a realistic model of particle physics. We review recent progress in understanding the physics of such singularities. Our main aim is to describe the techniques which have been used to develop our understanding of M theory physics near these singularities. In parallel, we also describe similar sorts of singularities in Spin(7) holonomy manifolds which correspond to the properties of three dimensional field theories. As an application, we review how various aspects of strongly coupled gauge theories, such as confinement, mass gap and non-perturbative phase transitions may be given a simple explanation in M theory.

description: We consider the possibility that the dark sector of our Universe contains a negative cosmological constant dubbed $λ$. For such models to be viable, the dark sector should contain an additional component responsible for the late-time accelerated expansion rate ($X$). We explore the departure of the expansion history of these models from the concordance $Λ$ Cold Dark Matter model. For a large class of our models the accelerated expansion is transient with a nontrivial dependence on the model parameters. All models with $w_X>-1$ will eventually contract and we derive an analytical expression for the scale factor $a(t)$ in the neighborhood of its maximal value. We find also the scale factor for models ending in a Big Rip in the regime where dustlike matter density is negligible compared to $λ$. We address further the viability of such models, in particular when a high $H_0$ is taken into account. While we find no decisive evidence for a nonzero $λ$, the best models are obtained with a phantom behavior on redshifts $z\gtrsim 1$ with a higher evidence for nonzero $λ$. An observed value for $h$ substantially higher than $0.70$ would be a decisive test of their viability.
