description: A ban on using Antimicrobic Growth Promoters (AGPs) in the poultry sector has recently come into force in accordance with European Union norms. This innovation of the institutional environment greatly influences the technology in use. This study conceptualizes the poultry industry in terms of technological paradigm and technological trajectory and suggests that the expected changes are costly to achieve due to the scarcity of technological opportunities. The idea proposed is that the interactions among agents along the supply chain may contribute to the solution of the emerging issues. The empirical outcomes map the skill creation in the existing networks of technicians and growers supporting the exchange of information and knowledge. These also suggest that some opportunities exist to enhance technological knowledge and contribute to the solution of emerging issues depending on the interaction among growers and processor technicians.

description: We sought to compare characteristics and outcomes of structural heart disease (SHD) patients treated during the regional peak of the COVID-19 pandemic (“COVID era”) compared with historical controls. During the COVID era, elective SHD procedures at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center were cancelled but urgent cases were still performed. We enacted several practice changes in an effort to minimize complications, prevent COVID transmission, and decrease hospital stay during the pandemic. Baseline characteristics and outcomes were collected on all patients who underwent SHD procedures during the COVID era and compared with patients treated during the same time period in 2019. Compared with SHD patients treated during 2019 (N=259), those treated during the COVID era (N=26) had higher left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP; 28 vs. 21 mmHg, p=0.001), and were more likely New York Heart Association (NYHA) class IV (26.9% vs. 10.0%, p=0.019), but had a lower rate of bleeding/vascular complications (0% vs. 16.2%, p=0.013), a lower rate of permanent pacemaker implantation (0% vs. 17.4%, p=0.019) and a greater proportion of patients were discharged on post-operative day 1 (POD#1; 68.2% vs. 22.2%, p<0.001). Practice changes employed for patients treated during the COVID era were associated with fewer vascular complications, a greater proportion of patients discharged on POD#1, and a lower rate of pacemaker implantation despite more severe illness. As a result, we plan to continue these practices in the post-COVID era.

description: Motivated by the recent success of tensor networks to calculate the residual entropy of spin ice and kagome Ising models, we develop a general framework to study frustrated Ising models in terms of infinite tensor networks %, i.e. tensor networks that can be contracted using standard algorithms for infinite systems. This is achieved by reformulating the problem as local rules for configurations on overlapping clusters chosen in such a way that they relieve the frustration, i.e. that the energy can be minimized independently on each cluster. We show that optimizing the choice of clusters, including the weight on shared bonds, is crucial for the contractibility of the tensor networks, and we derive some basic rules and a linear program to implement them. We illustrate the power of the method by computing the residual entropy of a frustrated Ising spin system on the kagome lattice with next-next-nearest neighbour interactions, vastly outperforming Monte Carlo methods in speed and accuracy. The extension to finite-temperature is briefly discussed.
A CAP fit for the 21st Century

Subjects: Political Economy

description: This paper first discusses the driving forces for further CAP reforms, it then outlines three approaches for the post-2013 CAP which have been spelled out by certain interest groups. The third section examines a little more closely the critical elements of reform which seem likely to form the core of the debate in the next few years. These considerations lead to the conclusion that, in contrast to the reform process of the 1992 – 2004 period when there emerged a broadly accepted vision of how the CAP had to evolve, there is, as yet, no such widely accepted vision for the next period. In this vacuum it seems possible that the reform debate may be dominated by three actions: to cut, redistribute and transform the Single Payments. Interest groups who consider it is vital first to transform the payments to deal with market failures should become more active in the debate.

description: В статье проведен анализ пространств поселений с позиции, согласно которой главным назначением того или иного места в городском теле является описание взаимосвязи между миром и человеком. Каждое место, где побывал человек, оставляет на память о себе определенный комплекс чувств, ощущений в сознании горожанина. Гипотеза исследования заключается в предположении о том, что пространства города в условиях глобализационных трансформаций, выступают наиболее значимыми площадками реализации потенциала личности. В условиях урбанизированного социума пространство поселения посредством собственного творческого потенциала выступает в роли системы приращения творческих способностей личности, местом ее самореализации, реализации творческого потенциала и формирования ценностных ориентаций. В статье приведены результаты философской концептуализации связи феномена «пространства» и «места» в городской среде. Авторами рассмотрены вопросы ранней теоретической проблематизации категории «пространство» в работах античных авторов на примере таких концептов, как место, топос, хора. Отдельное внимание в статье уделено рассмотрению концепции «не-места» М. Оже, проанализированы причины возникновения не-мест в городской среде и критерии их выделения. В статье также дана характеристика творческого потенциала городского пространства через такие категории как «социальное пространство города» и «третьи места» сквозь призму гуманистической географии и феноменологии.

The Antarctic Cherenkov neutrino detector AMANDA was on-line during the flare, and may either have detected high energy neutrinos for the first time from a cosmic point source, or put constraints on the flare mechanism of magnetars. If TeV neutrinos are detected, one would expect also detectable EeV cosmic rays and possibly TeV gamma-ray emission in coincidence.

Dabei steht die Diskussion, wie Big Data aus feministischer Perspektive einzuschätzen ist, noch am Anfang. Der Aufsatz leistet einen Beitrag zu dieser Diskussion, indem er die Versprechen von Big Data, genauer die sich hierin artikulierende erkenntnistheoretische Trias aus Datenfundamentalismus, post-explanativem Antizipationspragmatismus und anti-politischem Solutionismus einer diskurstheoretisch informierten und feministisch inspirierten Rationalitätskritik zuführt. Analytisch rekonstruiert werden so die Verflechtungen der kulturellen (Wissens-)Grundlagen von Big Data mit vergeschlechtlichten und vergeschlechtlichenden Macht- und Herrschaftsverhältnissen.

По результатам проведенного исследования сделан вывод о том, что наблюдается положительная тенденция российской государственной политики в части конституционно-правового закрепления и обеспечения гарантий по реализации и защите прав и свобод человека и гражданина, а также обращено внимание на то, что одним из значимых факторов, которые способствуют сокращению количества жалоб граждан в Европейский суд по правам человека, следует признать своевременное их исполнение по аналогичным делам.
Sequences of reforms and the dynamic decentralization process in Peru
Creators: name: Hirbour, Catherine M.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Efforts to promote decentralization have spread globally in response to pressures to better address the needs of citizens, and these processes have produced varying degrees of change in the distribution of power between national and subnational governments. I apply Tulia Falleti's groundbreaking sequential decentralization theory to shed light on the outcomes of the current decentralization process in Peru. I test the robustness of her theory using entirely new data gathered from more than 90 interviews with actors involved in the process. According to Failed, decentralization reforms are categorized as administrative, fiscal and political. The nature of coalitions (national, subnational, ruling, opposition and two types of mixed coalitions) determines the next round of reform to emerge. The types of interests, whether territorial, corresponding to the government level that a politician represents, or partisan, namely party affiliation, affect reformers when bargaining for more power. The analysis of sequences and the nature of coalitions affect the degree of change in the intergovernmental balance of power (IBOP) after the reforms. I argue that in Peru the sequence of reforms—political, administrative and fiscal—has produced a low level of change in IBOP. A mixed coalition, with prevailing subnational interests, promoted political reforms. A reactive mechanism triggered the formation of a national coalition between the ruling and opposition parties, promoting national interests. As the result of a power reproduction mechanism, which strengthens the prevailing interests, a national coalition dominated the fiscal reforms. Although this decentralization process generated a low level of change in the intergovernmental balance of power, it is a significant process considering Peru's long list of failed decentralization attempts. Moreover, greater political representation will take place as civil participation mechanisms are outlined in the decentralization laws, contributing to legitimating the democratization of Peru's state and society.

description: In digitalisierten, kapitalistischen Ökonomien nimmt Überwachung gegenwärtig eine ubiquitäre Stellung ein, deren Formen und Funktionen im Bereich der Surveillance Studies erörtert werden. Geprägt von einer Tradition gouvernementalitätskritischer Theorie stehen dabei vor allem das Verhältnis von Privatheit und Öffentlichkeit sowie von Un/Sichtbarkeit und Un/Sicherheit im Fokus, die in einer Reihe fundierter Zeitdiagnosen diskutiert werden. Während damit ergiebige Symptomanalysen vorliegen, erscheinen sie zugleich häufig als merkwürdig ursachenblind, was nicht zuletzt darin begründet sein mag, dass queerfeministische Positionen bislang nur wenig Beachtung finden. Im vorliegenden Beitrag wird auf der Basis einer selektiven Literaturstudie der Versuch unternommen, die beiden Theoriestränge zusammenzuführen, um so ihre produktiven Potenziale auszuloten, aber auch mögliche Probleme herauszufiltern.

description: The paper examines the effects of the phenomenon of soaring world food prices in a typical Low Income Food Deficit Country (LIFDC), Nepal. Steep rises in the prices of agricultural products are rare in Nepal and the outcomes of events on international markets have been exacerbated by a number of factors both of local and international origin, leading to a decline of the food security status of the most vulnerable households. The paper begins with a brief account of the recent evolution of rising commodity prices on world markets, providing global statistics for major agricultural products. A detailed analysis of the internal causes that have led, at the same time, to substantial increases in food prices in the Nepalese domestic market follows, and the detrimental repercussions on the food security status of households is described, together with the possible further consequences in the immediate future. The paper provides suggestions and recommendations for countervailing actions to be taken in order to tackle the issue of food insecurity at the grass root level so as to mitigate its effects, with special regard to the most vulnerable strata of the population, distinguishing between strategies applicable in the short, medium and long term.

description: We present a novel locking scheme for active length-stabilization and frequency detuning of a cavity optomechanical device based on the optical spring effect. The scheme can be used as an alternative to the Pound-Drever-Hall locking technique but in contrast doesn't require signal processing on time-scales of the cavity decay rate. It is therefore particularly suited for stabilizing micro cavities, where this time-scale can be extremely fast. The error signal is generated through the optical spring effect, i.e. the detuning-dependent frequency-shift of a nanomechanical oscillator that is dispersively coupled to the intra-cavity light field. We explain the functional principle of the lock and characterize its performance in terms of bandwidth and gain profile. The optical spring locking scheme can be implemented without larger efforts in a wide variety of optomechanical systems in the unresolved sideband regime.

description: This paper investigates three important energy and climate policy issues: (1) the availability of biomass for electricity generation (i.e., supply), (2) climate policy effects on this supply, and (3) the net greenhouse gas reduction when biomass is used for electricity generation. Using a detailed model of U.S. agriculture and forestry markets and land-use, that includes a broad and diverse set of biomass feedstocks, we evaluate competing potential sub-national and feedstock specific supplies of biomass for U.S. electricity generation. Our preliminary results suggest significant supply, with residues dominating at lower delivered energy prices, and dedicated crops significant at higher prices. Sub-national variation is dramatic and will affect generation siting and sustainability. We find displacement of food crops, but net forest land and cropland expansion. We also find that GHG policies could substantially increase the delivered cost of biomass; however, the implications for individual regions and feedstocks is non-uniform, with some supplies falling to zero and others increasing. Finally, we find that bioelectricity is not carbon neutral, but can be emissions reducing relative to coal generation, yield greater direct GHG benefits than biofuels, and even result in domestic indirect emissions reductions with incentives for forest based feedstocks.

description: Hypothetical bias arises when values which people say they place on a good or service differ systematically from the values people reveal for the same good or service through actual, binding economic transactions. Studies of hypothetical bias with respect to public goods often use charitable contributions or other relatively unique goods and these studies employ a variety of mechanisms to elicit the stated and revealed values. This study proposes the inclusion of a free-rider barring random dictatorship mechanism in the standard public contribution game to investigate the issue of bias when a public good involves immediate monetary returns to subjects. Steps are taken to make the game have the look and feel of a real world trade-off between private investment and public good provision. Data for the experiment were collected using a sample of students from the University of Alberta. A statistically significant negative hypothetical bias is found for the first hypothetical and the first real rounds of the game. The bias decays in subsequent round pairs, oscillating around zero.

Subjects: Plasma Model, Cyclic Universe, Quantum Mechanics, General Relativity, Electromagnetic Waves, Black Holes, Gravitational Lensing, Dark Matter, Dark Energy

description: Description: This manuscript introduces a comprehensive plasma-based model that redefines our understanding of gravity, electromagnetic wave propagation, and cosmological dynamics. The theory replaces the concept of a fabric of spacetime with a dynamic, all-pervasive plasma medium governed by quantum and relativistic principles. It addresses and resolves several longstanding problems in physics, including:

Wave-particle duality.

Quantum tunneling and entanglement.

The conservation of energy and absorption paradoxes in electromagnetic wave transmission.

Gravitational lensing and accelerated cosmic expansion without dark matter or dark energy.

Black hole singularity avoidance through plasma-mediated event horizon dynamics.

A cyclic universe model that naturally replaces the Big Bang singularity with oscillatory mechanisms.

The plasma model provides a unified framework linking quantum and macroscopic phenomena, offering testable predictions and resolving inconsistencies in Einsteinian gravity and Newtonian physics. This work lays the foundation for future exploration of particle interactions, cosmological evolution, and the role of plasma in astrophysical processes.

description: We present the first radial velocity curve of the companion star to BW Cir which demonstrates the presence of a black hole in this X-ray transient which recorded outbursts in 1987 and 1997 (and possibly 1971-2). We identify weak absorption features corresponding to a G0-5III donor star, strongly veiled by a residual accretion disc which contributes 61-65 % of the total light at lambda 6300. The Doppler motions of these features trace an orbit of P=2.54448 days (or its 1-yr alias of P=2.56358 days) and velocity semi-amplitude K2=279 +- 5 km/s (or K2=292 +- 5 km/s). Both solutions are equally possible. The mass function implied by the shorter period solution is f(M)= 5.75 +- 0.30 Msun which, combined with the rotational broadening of the tidally locked companion (V sin i =71 +- 4 km/s), yields a compact object mass of M1 sin3 i = 7.34 +- 0.46 Msun. This is substantially above the mass of a neutron star under any standard equation of state of nuclear matter. The companion star is probably a G subgiant which has evolved off the main sequence in order to fill its Roche lobe. Remarkably, a distance of > 27 kpc is inferred by the companion's luminosity and this is supported by the large observed systemic velocity (gamma = 103 +- 4 km/s) which requires such a distance in order to be consistent with the Galactic rotation curve.

description: La cimice asiatica, Halyomorpha halys Stål 1855 (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae), originaria dell’Asia nordorientale, è un insetto dannoso estremamente invasivo, segnalato per la prima volta in Italia nel 2012 e in
breve tempo divenuto il fitofago chiave in numerosi agroecosistemi causando ingenti danni economici su
molte colture arboree. Nel presente lavoro sono stati presi in considerazione oli essenziali di canapa (Cannabis sativa), artemisia (Artemisia vulgaris), cajeput (Melaleuca cajuputi), origano di Spagna (Thymbra capitata) menta (Mentha piperita), geranio (Pelargonium graveolens), allo scopo di valutarne le potenzialità come repellenti in strategie integrate (es. push and pull) di lotta all’insetto, in particolare su pero. Gli oli essenziali sono stati saggiati, a diverse concentrazioni e in diverse combinazioni (blend), in prove olfattometriche (olfattometro a Y). Una volta selezionati gli oli e le miscele maggiormente performanti come repellenti, sono state effettuate prove “in vivo” su frutti di pero in condizioni di scelta in arene sperimentali appositamente realizzate. Gli oli utilizzati in tali prove sono stati caratterizzati chimicamente tramite Gas cromatografia con rivelatore a ionizzazione di fiamma (GC-FID).
I risultati hanno permesso di evidenziare l’estrema efficacia di alcune miscele di oli essenziali - in particolare: cajeput+origano di Spagna e menta+geranio - come repellenti di H. halys. L’efficacia è tuttavia fortemente influenzata dalle concentrazioni relative e dal tempo trascorso dal trattamento, fattore quest’ultimo
importante data l’elevata volatilità degli oli essenziali.
Le sperimentazioni illustrate in questo lavoro fanno ben sperare sulla possibilità di utilizzo di miscele di oli
essenziali come repellenti della cimice asiatica in strategie integrate (es. “push and pull”) per il controllo della cimice asiatica, ma le loro effettive potenzialità richiedono conferme in successive sperimentazioni in piano

description: The mid 1990s was a pivotal period for the UK retail wine market, as New World Wines started to expand significantly at the expense of Old World Wines. This paper reviews supply and demand-side characteristics of the UK wine market during this period, and the underlying wine labeling scheme, before assessing how wines from Old World wine producing countries were valued by consumers in the British wine market. Following a more detailed discussion of econometric estimation issues, hedonic price analysis is applied in order to analyze consumers’ valuation of wine label attributes of Spanish and German wines sold in Britain in 1994.

description: Sterile neutrinos with a mass in the eV range have been invoked as a possible explanation of a variety of short baseline (SBL) neutrino oscillation anomalies. However, if one considers neutrino oscillations between active and sterile neutrinos, such neutrinos would have been fully thermalised in the early universe, and would be therefore in strong conflict with cosmological bounds. In this study we first update cosmological bounds on the mass and energy density of eV-scale sterile neutrinos. We then perform an updated study of a previously proposed model in which the sterile neutrino couples to a new light pseudoscalar degree of freedom. Consistently with previous analyses, we find that the model provides a good fit to all cosmological data and allows the high value of $H_0$ measured in the local universe to be consistent with measurements of the cosmic microwave background. However, new high $\ell$ polarisation data constrain the sterile neutrino mass to be less than approximately 1 eV in this scenario. Finally, we combine the cosmological bounds on the pseudoscalar model with a Bayesian inference analysis of SBL data and conclude that only a sterile mass in narrow ranges around 1 eV remains consistent with both cosmology and SBL data.

description: Single top-quark production, via weak-interaction processes, is an important test of the standard model, potentially sensitive to new physics. However, it is becoming known that this measurement is much more challenging at the Tevatron than originally expected. We reexamine this process and suggest new methods, using shape variables, that can supplement the methods that have been discussed previously. In particular, by focusing on correlations and asymmetries, we can reduce backgrounds substantially without low acceptance for the signal. Our method also allows for a self-consistency check on the modeling of the backgrounds. However, at the present time, serious systematic problems remain, especially concerning the background from W-plus-jets; these must be studied further by experimentalists and theorists alike.

description: In light of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz called for a Zeitenwende signalling a departure from Germany's long-standing non-military and responsible foreign policy. But, what does Zeitenwende mean to the policymakers implementing it? This paper conceptualises Zeitenwende as a legitimation frame for politicians to explain and justify changes in Germany's stance towards European security governance. Through the analysis of a dataset of speeches held in the German Bundestag since the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, the study explores the meaning policymakers attribute to Zeitenwende and how the concept has been used as a framing device by German politicians. It finds that Zeitenwende served as a successful justificatory frame for legitimizing foreign policy changes across political parties. The paper concludes by highlighting the broader relevance of these findings for international relations scholars and students of European security, offering insights into norm contestation and norm decay in the context of European conflict dynamics.

description: The existence of non-vanishing Bohm potentials, in the Madelung-Bohm version of the Schrödinger equation, allows for the construction of particular solutions for states of quantum particles interacting with non-trivial external potentials that propagate as free classical particles. Such solutions are constructed with phases which satisfy the classical Hamilton-Jacobi for free particles and whose probability densities propagate with constant velocity, as free classical particles do.
Postural control and falls in individuals with chronic stroke : neural mechanisms and effects of exercise
Creators: name: Marigold, Daniel S.

description: Although falls and fall-related injuries are an enormous burden for individuals with stroke, we do not know the neural mechanisms underlying these events. While impairments in postural control presumably contribute to falls, the type of exercises most effective for improving postural control in individuals with chronic stroke are unclear. The purpose of this thesis was (1) to understand how individuals with chronic stroke modulate postural control and determine the underlying neural mechanisms contributing to falls and (2) to determine the effects of two different exercise interventions on postural control and physical function. In each of the three experiments conducted, postural reflexes were evoked by unexpected translations of a platform upon which participants were standing. Experiment I examined the effects of different weight-' bearing load on the modulation of lower limb postural reflexes. We revealed that individuals with stroke could modulate ankle extensor, but not ankle dorsiflexor reflex magnitude. In Experiment II we discovered that reduced tibialis anterior reflex magnitude and delayed nonparetic rectus femoris onset latency contribute to falls in individuals with stroke. In addition, reduced maximum volitional muscle strength, particularly the paretic lower limb, contributed to falls induced by platform translations. Based on the results from the first two experiments, we hypothesized that deficits in supraspinal centres are responsible for the impaired postural control observed. Experiment HI was a 10-week randomized clinical trial in individuals with chronic stroke. The results demonstrated that regardless of intervention (Agility or Stretching/weightshifting program), exercise resulted in faster paretic lower limb postural reflexes, improved functional balance and mobility, faster step reaction time, and improved balance confidence and quality of life. However, there was a greater change in paretic rectus femoris postural reflex onset latency and step reaction time for the Agility exercise group. Although there was no difference in the number of fallers between groups when the entire sample was included, a subanalysis of those with a history falls demonstrated a reduction in the number of fallers in the Agility group. These results suggest that an Agility-based exercise intervention may be more beneficial for individuals with stroke. Further, the results suggest exercise-induced neural plasticity.
