description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

title: Perceived Inflation Persistence
Creators: name: Jain, Monica
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2013

description: The Survey of Professional Forecasters (SPF) has had vast influence on research related to better understanding expectation formation and the behaviour of macroeconomic agents. Inflation expectations, in particular, have received a great deal of attention, since they play a crucial role in determining real interest rates, the expectations-augmented Phillips curve and monetary policy. One feature of the SPF that has surprisingly not been explored is the natural way in which it can be used to extract useful measures of inflation persistence. This paper presents a new measure of U.S. inflation persistence from the point of view of a professional forecaster, referred to as perceived inflation persistence. It is built via the implied autocorrelation function that follows from the estimates obtained using a forecaster-specific state-space model. Findings indicate that perceived inflation persistence has changed over time and that forecasters are more likely to view unexpected shocks to inflation as transitory, particularly since the mid-1990s. When compared to the autocorrelation function for actual inflation, forecasters react less to shocks than the actual inflation data would suggest, since they may engage in forecast smoothing.
description: L’enquête auprès des prévisionnistes professionnels a eu une influence considérable sur les recherches visant à acquérir une meilleure compréhension de la formation des anticipations et du comportement des agents macroéconomiques. Plus particulièrement, les attentes en matière d’inflation ont fait l’objet de nombreuses études, étant donné le rôle majeur qu’elles jouent dans la détermination des taux d’intérêt réels, de la courbe de Phillips dotée d’anticipations et de la politique monétaire. Étonnamment, un aspect qui n’a pas été exploré est la manière par laquelle cette enquête peut être utilisée pour extraire des mesures utiles de la persistance de l’inflation. L’auteure présente une nouvelle mesure de la persistance de l’inflation aux États-Unis telle qu’elle est perçue par les prévisionnistes professionnels. Cette mesure, qu’elle appelle persistance perçue de l’inflation, s’appuie sur la fonction d’autocorrélation implicite qui découle d’estimations obtenues à l’aide d’un modèle espace-état tenant compte de la spécificité de chaque prévisionniste. Les résultats indiquent que la persistance perçue de l’inflation a changé au fil du temps et que les prévisionnistes sont plus susceptibles de considérer les chocs d’inflation imprévus comme temporaires, particulièrement depuis le milieu des années 1990. La comparaison avec la fonction d’autocorrélation révèle que les prévisionnistes réagissent aux chocs dans une moindre mesure que ce que laissent entrevoir les données sur l’inflation réalisée, car ils lisseraient leurs prévisions.

description: The optimal design of nanoparticle synthesis protocols is often achieved via one-at-a-time experimental designs. Aside from covering a limited space for the possible input conditions, these methods neglect possible interaction between different combinations of input factors. This is where mechanistic models embracing various possibilities find importance. By performing global uncertainty/sensitivity analysis (UA/SA), one can map out the various outcomes of the process vs. different combinations of operating conditions. Moreover, UA/SA allows for the assessment of the model behavior, an inevitable step in the theoretical understanding of a process. Recently, we developed a coupled thermodynamic-kinetic framework in the form of population balance modelling in order to describe the precipitation of calcium-silicate-hydrate. Besides its relevance in the construction industry, this inorganic nanomaterial offers potential applications in biomedicine, environmental remediation, and catalysis most notably due to ample specific surface area that can be achieved by carefully tuning the synthesis conditions. Here, we apply a global UA/SA to an improved version of our computational model in order to understand the effect of variations in the model parameters and experimental conditions (induced by either uncertainty or tunability) on the properties of the product. With the specific surface area of particles as an example, we show that UA/SA identifies the factors whose control would allow a fine-tuning of the desired properties. This way, we can rationalize the proper synthesis protocol before any further attempt to optimize the experimental procedure. This approach is general and can be transferred to other nanoparticle synthesis schemes as well.

description: The effectiveness of monetary policy depends, to a large extent, on market expectations of its future actions. In a standard New Keynesian business-cycle model with rational expectations, systematic monetary policy reduces the variance of inflation and the output gap by at least two-thirds. These stabilization benefits can be substantially smaller if expectations are non-rational. We design an economic experiment that identifies the contribution of expectations to macroeconomic stabilization achieved by systematic monetary policy. We find that, despite some non-rational component in expectations formed by experiment participants, monetary policy is quite potent in providing stabilization, reducing macroeconomic variance by roughly half.
description: L’efficacité de la politique monétaire dépend, dans une large mesure, des attentes des marchés à l’égard des décisions futures des autorités monétaires. En recourant à un modèle néo-keynésien standard du cycle économique à anticipations rationnelles, les auteurs établissent que la cohérence des mesures de politique monétaire permet de réduire d’au moins deux tiers la variance de l’inflation et de l’écart de production. Ils mettent en évidence également que les effets stabilisateurs peuvent être nettement moins importants si les anticipations ne sont pas rationnelles. Une expérience est montée dans l’espoir d’évaluer le rôle des anticipations des agents privés dans la stabilisation macroéconomique qu’apporte l’action cohérente des autorités monétaires. Les auteurs découvrent que, même si les anticipations formées par les participants à l’expérience sont en partie non rationnelles, la politique monétaire mise en oeuvre parvient à avoir des effets stabilisateurs qui ne sont pas du tout négligeables, en réduisant à peu près de moitié la variance macroéconomique.

description: Rural tourism has become a significant economic activity in Spain, contributing also to the social revitalisation of rural areas. However, rural tourism destinations face particular challenges with respect to commercialisation and promotion. Because rural tourism industry remains highly fragmented, comprising a large number of relatively small and generally family-run businesses, the participation of tourism intermediaries in the marketing process is limited. To ensure that rural tourism businesses are properly marketed numerous organisations, based on joint local initiatives, have arisen. Such cooperative groups are labelled as Rural Tourism Associations. The purpose of this paper is to present the main characteristics of Rural Tourism Association’s movement in Spain, making to do it a census of these organisations. Secondly, we estimate the contribution of Rural Tourism Associations to the income of rural tourism business owners. The sample, made of Catalan rural tourism promoters, shows the relevant role that rural tourism organisations play on the viability of rural tourism business.

description: The one-point distribution of the height for the continuum Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation is determined numerically using the mapping to the directed polymer in a random potential at high temperature. Using an importance sampling approach, the distribution is obtained over a large range of values, down to a probability density as small as $10^{-1000}$ in the tails. The short time behavior is investigated and compared with recent analytical predictions for the large-deviation forms of the probability of rare fluctuations, showing a spectacular agreement with the analytical expressions. The flat and stationary initial conditions are studied in the full space, together with the droplet initial condition in the half-space.

title: Expansion of Higher Education, Employment and Wages: Evidence from the Russian Transition
Creators: name: Kyui, Natalia
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2013

description: This paper analyzes the effects of an educational system expansion on labour market outcomes, drawing upon a 15-year natural experiment in the Russian Federation. Regional increases in student intake capacities in Russian universities, a result of educational reforms, provide a plausibly exogenous variation in access to higher education. Additionally, the gradual nature of this expansion allows for estimation of heterogeneous returns to education for individuals who successfully took advantage of increasing educational opportunities. Using simultaneous equations models and a non-parametric model with essential heterogeneity, the paper identifies strong positive returns to education in terms of employment and wages. Marginal returns to higher education are estimated to decline for lower levels of individual unobserved characteristics that positively influence higher education attainment. Finally, the returns to higher education are found to decrease for those who, as a result of the reforms, increasingly pursued higher education.
description: Cette étude analyse les effets d’un élargissement du système éducatif sur les salaires et les perspectives d’emploi des diplômés. Elle se fonde sur l’expérience naturelle de l’expansion de l’accès à l’enseignement supérieur dans la Fédération de Russie au cours des 15 dernières années. L’accroissement du nombre de places disponibles dans les universités au niveau régional, du fait des réformes de l’éducation, fournit une variation vraisemblablement exogène de l’accès à l’enseignement supérieur. Le caractère graduel de cet élargissement permet en outre d’estimer les rendements hétérogènes de l’éducation pour les individus qui ont bénéficié de l’amélioration de l’accès à l’enseignement supérieur. S’appuyant sur des résultats obtenus à l’aide de modèles à équations simultanées et d’un modèle non paramétrique à hétérogénéité essentielle, l’étude relève que les rendements de l’enseignement supérieur sont élevés sur le plan des salaires et de l’emploi. D’après les résultats de l’estimation, les rendements marginaux de l’enseignement supérieur diminuent lorsque les caractéristiques individuelles non observables qui influencent positivement la probabilité d’accéder à l’enseignement supérieur sont plus faibles. Enfin, il apparaît que les rendements de l’enseignement supérieur sont plus faibles pour ceux qui ont pu entreprendre des études supérieures à la suite des réformes que pour ceux qui poursuivaient des études supérieures indépendamment de l’élargissement du système éducatif.

description: O tema-problema da pesquisa que se pretende desenvolver é o relativismo cultural como pretexto para a negligência do Estado brasileiro frente ao homicídio de crianças indígenas. É importante salientar que o princípio da tolerância é um argumento sedutor que pode ser utilizado tanto para ação quanto para a negligência. Por essa razão, Melly afirma que “quando países elevam práticas culturais, é comumente para justificar seu fracasso em suportar os termos do tratado” (MELLY, 2003, p.68, tradução nossa). Logo, a tradição do homicídio de criança com deficiência em várias tribos brasileiras acaba por negar, muitas vezes, a própria prática cultural, tornando-se um paradoxo: perpetuar a cultura e negá-la simultaneamente. Portanto, tem-se a pergunta fundamental: a cultura pode excluir os indígenas da proteção do ordenamento jurídico brasileiro e internacional? A partir de reflexões sobre o tema, pondera-se que o relativismo cultural se tornou um ponto importante para a efetivação da livre determinação dos povos. [...]
title: Heterogeneous Returns to U.S. College Selectivity and the Value of Graduate Degree Attainment
Creators: name: Seki, Mai
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2013

description: Existing studies on the returns to college selectivity have mixed results, mainly due to the difficulty of controlling for selection into more-selective colleges based on unobserved ability. Moreover, researchers have not considered graduate degree attainment in the analysis of labour market returns to college selectivity. In this paper, I estimate the effect of a U.S. four-year undergraduate program’s selectivity on wages, including graduate degree attainment. I control for both observed and unobserved selection by extending the model of Carneiro, Hansen and Heckman (2003). There are two channels through which college selectivity affects future labour market outcomes. The first is the wage returns to college selectivity conditional on graduate degree attainment. The second is the effect of college selectivity on the probability of graduate degree attainment and the wage returns to graduate degree attainment. The results show that the former effects dominate the latter, but both are small in magnitude.
description: Les études existantes sur les rendements découlant de la sélection des établissements universitaires ont produit des résultats contradictoires, en raison principalement de la difficulté de prendre en compte les critères basés sur des aptitudes inobservables utilisés pour le choix des établissements plus sélectifs. Par ailleurs, les analyses de l’incidence de cette sélection sur les perspectives des diplômés ne prenaient pas en considération l’obtention d’un diplôme de cycle supérieur. L’auteure estime les rendements apportés, sur le plan du salaire et de l’obtention d’un diplôme de cycle supérieur, par le choix d’un programme d’étude universitaire de premier cycle de quatre ans aux États-Unis. En développant le modèle établi par Carneiro, Hansen et Heckman (2003), elle parvient à rendre compte tant de la sélection fondée sur des critères observables que de la sélection qui s’appuie sur des qualités non observables. Il existe deux canaux par lesquels la sélection influe sur les perspectives des diplômés : le premier est l’incidence de la sélection sur les salaires, que les étudiants aient obtenu ou non un diplôme de cycle supérieur; le second canal est l’effet de la sélection sur la probabilité d’obtenir un diplôme de cycle supérieur ainsi que sur le salaire des diplômés des cycles supérieurs. Les résultats de l’étude montrent que l’incidence du premier facteur est plus importante que celle du second, mais que les deux ont peu d’influence.

description: Let $ϕ$ be a polynomial over $K$ (a field of characteristic 0) such that the Hessian of $ϕ$ is a nonzero constant. Let $\barϕ$ be the formal Legendre Transform of $ϕ$. Then $\barϕ$ is well-defined as a formal power series over $K$. The Hessian Conjecture introduced here claims that $\barϕ$ is actually a polynomial. This conjecture is shown to be true when $K=\bb{R}$ and the Hessian matrix of $ϕ$ is either positive or negative definite somewhere. It is also shown to be equivalent to the famous Jacobian Conjecture. Finally, a tree formula for $\barϕ$ is derived; as a consequence, the tree inversion formula of Gurja and Abyankar is obtained.

description: Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is the most widely studied transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) material, in part because it is a natural crystal present in the earth, thus making it abundant and easily accessible. Geological MoS2 has been used in various studies that look at incorporating MoS2 into devices for nanoelectronics and optoelectronics. However, variations in the electronic properties of a single MoS2 surface are known to exist due to defects that are intrinsic to natural MoS2. This work reports the presence of bismuth impurities in MoS2 with concentrations high enough to be detected by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). These concentrations are further corroborated with inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES). Localization of these bismuth clusters is shown using XPS-mapping, and the cluster size is determined to be on the order of tens of microns. This work provides important insights into the nature of impurities that are known to exist in MoS2.

description: This paper aims at analyzing business services in bioenergy investments and innovations on farms in the Northern Ostrobothnia region in Finland. Finance into research of bioenergy has strongly increased during the last years both in Finland and Europe. Primary focus of this research has been so far on the technical and economic problems, like production, processing and combustion techniques of biofuels and environmental effects of bioenergy production. Energy resources of farms and their possibilities to act as bioenergy entrepreneurs has been paid attention to only lately. Research focusing on the background factors, support services and regional conditions effecting farm level bioenergy entrepreneurship has been minor in Finland. The number of Finnish farm enterprises is assumed to decrease from 70,000 to about 50,000 by the year 2013 and the decline is especially drastic in marginal rural areas like Northern Finland. This trend fosters the depopulation of rural areas and weakens the well-being there. New business opportunities are important in keeping up agricultural enterprises in business. High hopes have been put on the production and use of domestic bioenergy as one of the farm businesses, which is at the same time seen as one of the solutions for reacting to the demands of climate change. In here, governmental and other business services have an important role, but the Finnish business services are scattered in numerous organizations. The research emphasis is put on local/regional actors, who make fi nal energy decisions. Empirically this paper is based on questioning (150 farmers) and structural interviews (39 farmers) for farms directed to bioenergy production in the province of Northern Ostrobothnia, Finland. The data was collected in 2006 and 2007. Three groups of farmers were categorized according to their attitudes to bioenergy production on their farms: investors, entrepreneurs and hobbyist. The results will help to develop future business services, increase bioenergy use, and bring in information about the factors and causalities behind bioenergy decisions.

description: Nigeria is a major importer of rice in the world with over 756 million USD annual expenditure on rice importation. This is probably due to insufficient domestic production occasioned by inefficient utilization of resources and other farm inputs. This study is therefore designed to estimate the costs and returns to rice production; and analyze resource use efficiency in rice production in Ogun State, Nigeria. A three-stage sampling technique was used to select a total of 120 rice farmers. Gross margin and regression analyses were used to analyse the data for the study. The study revealed that an average small scale rice farmer realizes a gross margin of N 90, 634.35 per hectare. While farm size, labour and crop production systems account for 80.5% (coefficient of multiple determination, R2) of the changes in rice production, the study revealed that farm size, labour and seeds were grossly underutilized in rice production. The study therefore recommends the need for policy that would enhance increase in the allocation of land, seeds and labour in the production of rice.

description: We present CoMargin, a new methodology to estimate collateral requirements for central counterparties (CCPs) in derivatives markets. CoMargin depends on both the tail risk of a given market participant and its interdependence with other participants. Our approach internalizes market interdependencies and enhances the stability of CCPs, thereby reducing the systemic risk concerns associated with them. CoMargin can be estimated using a model-free and scenario-based methodology, validated using formal statistical tests, and generalized to any number of market participants. We assess and illustrate our methodology using proprietary data from the Canadian Derivatives Clearing Corporation (CDCC). Our data set, the first one of its kind to be used in an academic study, includes daily observations of the actual trading positions of all CDCC members from 2003 to 2011. We show theoretically and empirically that CoMargin outperforms existing margining systems by stabilizing the probability and minimizing the shortfall of simultaneous margin-exceeding losses. The relative performance of our methodology increases when trading similarities across clearing members or co-movements among underlying assets increase, as was the case during the recent financial crisis.
description: Les auteurs présentent la CoMargin, une nouvelle méthodologie permettant d’estimer les exigences en matière de dépôts de marge que devraient imposer les contreparties centrales sur le marché de produits dérivés. La méthode CoMargin se base sur le risque extrême auquel sont exposés les participants au marché, ainsi que sur les interdépendances qui existent entre leurs pertes. Cette approche améliore la stabilité des contreparties centrales, atténuant ainsi les appréhensions liées au risque systémique suscitées par ces contreparties. La CoMargin peut être estimée à l’aide de scénarios sans recourir à des modèles, et ce, pour n’importe quel nombre d’acteurs de marché. Les résultats de l’estimation sont validés au moyen de tests statistiques formels. Les auteurs utilisent des données exclusives de la Corporation canadienne de compensation de produits dérivés (CDCC) afin d’évaluer et d’illustrer leur méthodologie. Cette base de données, la première du genre à être employée dans une étude universitaire, comprend les positions quotidiennes de négociation réelles de tous les membres de la CDCC de 2003 à 2011. Les auteurs montrent, de manière théorique et empirique, que la CoMargin domine les systèmes actuels d’établissement de marges en stabilisant la probabilité de pertes et en minimisant le déficit attribuable à des pertes simultanées supérieures aux dépôts de marge. La méthodologie s’avère particulièrement efficace lorsque la similitude entre les positions de négociation des membres compensateurs s’accroît ou en présence de forte corrélation entre les actifs sous-jacents, comme ce fut le cas pendant la récente crise financière.

description: The aim of this paper is to describe the conception of the research especially the theoretical conception. Furthermore, the research focus will be exemplifi ed through the description of fi rst empirical results. Care farming can be named innovation because taking on social duties is “relatively” new for farmers. Before industrialisation people with special needs were often integrated at farms. At the present time care farming starts to become important again as a part of multifunctional agriculture. Care farming offers rehabilitation, therapy, care or pedagogic for people with special needs by working in an agricultural surrounding. The target group can be manifold; it ranges from children to elderly, from long-term unemployed to mentally or physically disabled people. This article focuses on current social developments, especially in rural regions. Through the comparison between Austria and the Netherlands it will be possible to gain a new insight into the development of innovative practices because both countries are in different development stages regarding this innovation. There will be a special focus on the process of innovation and on infl uencing social networks. Social networks mean relations between actors. Furthermore, the existence of relations allow the exchange of information or the transaction of practical, emotional or fi nancial support which could infl uence the development of the innovation. Based on the idea that social networks highly infl uence the process of innovation, I will focus on these by using qualitative network analysis. The research focus is quite complex because micro and macro perspective will be combined by using the theory of structuration by Giddens. The micro level will be investigated empirically by focusing on single care farming projects while the macro perspective will be taken into account by applying a comparative approach and by interviewing care-farming experts. Combined with literature review this will help to understand why the surroundings for the development of innovative practice are diverse in different countries and how they infl uence the behaviour of care farmers. To sum up, the main focus of this paper is on the description of the care farming sector in Austria and the Netherlands and on the explanation of the research focus in this project. Furthermore, there will be an illustration of the theoretical framework which will be used in this research, how different theories are connected and why the theoretical focus will be helpful to understand the development of innovative practice.

description: In this article, we discuss the implementation of various estimators proposed to estimate quantile treatment effects. We distinguish four cases involving conditional and unconditional quantile treatment effects with either exogenous or endogenous treatment variables. The introduced ivqte command covers four different estimators: the classical quantile regression estimator of Koenker and Bassett (1978, Econometrica 46: 33–50) extended to heteroskedasticity consistent standard errors; the instrumental-variable quantile regression estimator of Abadie, Angrist, and Imbens (2002, Econometrica 70: 91–117); the estimator for unconditional quantile treatment effects proposed by Firpo (2007, Econometrica 75: 259–276); and the instrumental-variable estimator for unconditional quantile treatment effects proposed by Frölich and Melly (2008, IZA discussion paper 3288). The implemented instrumental-variable procedures estimate the causal effects for the subpopulation of compliers and are only well suited for binary instruments. ivqte also provides analytical standard errors and various options for nonparametric estimation. As a by-product, the locreg command implements local linear and local logit estimators for mixed data (continuous, ordered discrete, unordered discrete, and binary regressors).
On a simple derivation of the very low damping escape rate for classical spins by modifying the method of Kramers

description: The original perturbative Kramers' method (starting from the phase space coordinates) (Kramers, 1940) of determining the energy-controlled-diffusion equation for Newtonian particles with separable and additive Hamiltonians is generalized to yield the energy-controlled diffusion equation and thus the very low damping (VLD) escape rate including spin-transfer torque for classical giant magnetic spins with two degrees of freedom. These have dynamics governed by the magnetic Langevin and Fokker-Planck equations and thus are generally based on non-separable and non-additive Hamiltonians. The derivation of the VLD escape rate directly from the (magnetic) Fokker-Planck equation for the surface distribution of magnetization orientations in the configuration space of the polar and azimuthal angles $(\vartheta, φ)$ is much simpler than those previously used.

A molecular line survey of the candidate massive Class 0 prototostar IRAS 23385+6053

description: We have carried out a molecular line survey of the candidate massive protostar IRAS 23385+6053, covering a 27.2 GHz frequency range in the 330--360 GHz atmospheric window. We detected 27 lines originating from a total of 11 species.Over a third of the identified molecular lines are from the asymmetric top molecule methanol (CH$_{3}$OH). We did not detect any emission from high-excitation lines or typical hot core tracers (e.g. CH$_{3}$CN, HCOOCH$_{3}$). We derive a rotation temperature and column density from the methanol emission and estimate lower limits to the beam-averaged column density of the remaining lines. Upper limits to the beam-averaged column density of selected species were determined from the non-detection of their rotation lines. We rule out the presence of a hot molecular core associated with IRAS 23385+6053 by a combination of the non-detection of CH$_{3}$CN emission and a simple bolometric luminosity approach. The molecular inventory and chemistry of IRAS 23385+6053 are contrasted to that of more evolved massive star-forming regions and the abundances predicted by recent time-dependent chemical models. The physical and chemical nature of IRAS 23385+6053 is shown to be consistent with that immediately prior to the hot molecular core stage.

The shape and structure of small asteroids as a result of sub-catastrophic collisions

description: The overall shape, internal structure and surface morphology of small bodies such as asteroids and comets are determined to a large degree by the last global-scale impact or disruption event. Depending on the specific energy, impacts lead to a large spectrum of outcomes. Sub-catastrophic disruptions take place in an energy range between cratering impacts and catastrophic disruptions. Although less energetic than catastrophic events, they can still significantly alter the overall shape and structure of the target body. This has been demonstrated recently in the case of bi-lobe cometary nuclei (Jutzi and Benz, 2017). Here we present results of a subsequent study on the shapes of asteroids resulting from such collisions. Sizes ranging from a few hundred meters to a few kilometers are considered. We show that impacts on elongated rotating asteroids frequently lead to the formation of contact binaries. Our results confirm that this mechanism is robust and works for a large range of asteroid sizes and impact velocities. Scaling-laws for the prediction of the size and velocity dependent specific energies required for successful bi-lobe formation are presented. Based on these scaling laws, the expected frequency of such sub-catastrophic impacts is calculated and is compared to the one of catastrophic disruptions, which require much higher specific energies and are more rare. Our analysis suggest that the shapes and structures of a large fraction of small asteroids as observed today may be the result of the last major sub-catastrophic impact.

Temperature dependent third cumulant of tunneling noise

description: Poisson statistics predicts that the shot noise in a tunnel junction has a temperature independent third cumulant e^2\I, determined solely by the mean current I. Experimental data, however, show a puzzling temperature dependence. We demonstrate theoretically that the third cumulant becomes strongly temperature dependent and may even change sign as a result of feedback from the electromagnetic environment. In the limit of a noninvasive (zero-impedance) measurement circuit in thermal equilibrium with the junction, we find that the third cumulant crosses over from e^2/I at low temperatures to -e^2/I at high temperatures.
