description: Let me begin by elaborating on the meaning of "the attachment to free reserves' and after further reducing the scope of the subject, go on to point out the consequences of this attachment and some reasons for it. I can then conclude by indicating some suggestions that will achieve some of what we take to be the major aims of the Federal Reserve while avoiding some of the problems that we find to be most serious in present or recent Federal Reserve policy-making.
Helium-Star Models with Optically Thick Winds: Implications for the Internal Structures and Mass-Loss Rates of Wolf-Rayet Stars

description: We construct helium (He) star models with optically thick winds and compare them with the properties of Galactic Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars. Hydrostatic He-core solutions are connected smoothly to trans-sonic wind solutions that satisfy the regularity conditions at the sonic point. Velocity structures in the supersonic parts are assumed by a simple beta-type law. By constructing a center-to-surface structure, a mass-loss rate can be obtained as an eigenvalue of the equations. Sonic points appear at temperatures ~ 1.8e5 - 2.8e5 K below the Fe-group opacity peak, where the radiation force becomes comparable to the local gravity. Photospheres are located at radii 3-10 times larger than sonic points. The obtained mass-loss rates are comparable to those of WR stars. Our mass-loss rate - luminosity relation agrees well with the relation recently obtained by Graefener et al. (2017). Photospheric temperatures of WR stars tend to be cooler than our predictions. We discuss the effects of stellar evolution, detailed radiation transfer, and wind clumping, which are ignored in this paper.

description: In this paper we show that the apparent failure of QCD lattice perturbation theory to account for Monte Carlo measurements of perturbative quantities results from choosing the bare lattice coupling constant as the expansion parameter. Using instead ``renormalized'' coupling constants defined in terms of physical quantities, like the heavy-quark potential, greatly enhances the predictive power of lattice perturbation theory. The quality of these predictions is further enhanced by a method for automatically determining the coupling-constant scale most appropriate to a particular quantity. We present a mean-field analysis that explains the large renormalizations relating lattice quantities, like the coupling constant, to their continuum analogues. This suggests a new prescription for designing lattice operators that are more continuum-like than conventional operators. Finally, we provide evidence that the scaling of physical quantities is asymptotic or perturbative already at $β$'s as low as 5.7, provided the evolution from scale to scale is analyzed using renormalized perturbation theory. This result indicates that reliable simulations of (quenched) QCD are possible at these same low $β$'s.

description: To determine the association between the presence of pet health insurance and the risk of euthanasia at the time of diagnosis for dogs with gastric dilatation-volvulus (GDV). Insurance status at the time of GDV diagnosis was sought for a cohort of 147 non-referred, confirmed cases of GDV that presented to the emergency department of a university-based veterinary hospital in Australia between 2008 and 2017. Insurance status was obtained from the medical record (n=18) or after contacting the owners by phone using a standardised questionnaire (n=129). Animal, clinical and outcome data was retrospectively compiled in a research database. The primary outcome measure was whether or not the dog was euthanised before surgery. The Mantel-Haenszel procedure was used to quantify the association between the presence of pet health insurance and the risk of euthanasia at the time of diagnosis for dogs with GDV, adjusting for the confounding effect of age at the time of presentation using Bayesian methods. Of the 69 dogs for which insurance information could be obtained, 10 (14%) cases were insured at the time of the GDV event and 59 (86%) cases were not. The majority of non-insured dogs (37/59; 63 (95% CI=50–74)%) were euthanised before surgery, while none (0 (95% CI=0–28)%) of the insured dogs were euthanised at that time (p<0.001). Of the 32 insured and non-insured dogs that underwent surgery, four dogs (13 (95% CI=5–28)%) did not survive to hospital discharge. Three dogs (9%) were euthanised during or after surgery and one dog (3%) experienced cardiopulmonary arrest during treatment. The majority of dogs for which insurance status was known did not survive to hospital discharge (41/69; 59%), and 90 (95% CI=7–96)% of deaths were caused by euthanasia prior to surgery. Uninsured dogs were 5.0 (95% credible interval=1.8–26) times more likely to undergo presurgical euthanasia compared with insured dogs. Euthanasia prior to treatment was most common cause of death in non-referred dogs with GDV; such euthanasia was entirely absent in the cohort of dogs that were insured. Financial considerations significantly contribute to mortality of dogs with GDV presented to an emergency room. Financial instruments to reduce the out-of-pocket expense for pet owners confronted with unexpected veterinary expenses have potential to reduce pet mortality.

description: Saxino decay can generate significant cosmological entropy, and hence dilute theoretical estimates of the present mass density of a given particle species. The dilution factor depends on the saxino and axion masses, and is constrained by the requirement that saxino decay should not affect nucleosynthesis, as well as by the usual requirement that the axion density be less than the critical density. The latter constraint is evaluated carefully, under both the Harari-Sikivie and Davis proposals about the emission spectrum from axionic strings. Uncertainties are carefully evaluated, points of principle are addressed, and with an eye to future numerical simulation the spacing and typical oscillation wavelength of the strings are represented by parameters varying in the range 1 to 3. Within the constraints, the entropy dilution varies from 1 to $10^{-4}$. Only saxinos originating from thermal equilibrium are considered, so that more dilution might arise from non-thermal saxinos.

Nanocircuits in loop structures: continuous waves preclude gauge invariant wavelengths

description: Tunnel junctions for quantum computing require discrete spectra from continuous waves on a doubly connected coordinate or loop. For an electron on a metal ring discrete spectra follow from discontinuous Bloch waves. Can both propositions be true? We find using a gauge function originating in the Lagrangian that continuity on a ring or loop violates gauge invariance of the de Broglie wavelength. This same gauge function shows that Lagrangians for the electron on a ring and the charge on a junction are mutual transforms. Thus persistent current on a metal ring and the Coulomb blockade on a tunnel junction seem to be the same dynamical theory based on discontinuous Bloch waves on the compact perimeter of a circle

Inclusive production of $J/ψ$ meson in proton-proton collisions at BNL RHIC

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: Inclusive cross sections for $J/ψ$ production in proton-proton collisions were calculated in the $k_t$-factorization approach for the RHIC energy. Several mechanisms were considered, including direct color-singlet mechanism, radiative decays of $χ_c$ mesons, decays of $ψ'$, open-charm associated production of $J/ψ$ as well as weak decays of B mesons. Different unintegrated gluon distributions from the literature were used. We find that radiative $χ_c$ decays and direct color-singlet contributions constitute the dominant mechanism of $J/ψ$ production. These process cannot be consistently treated within collinear-factorization approach. The results are compared with recent RHIC data. The new precise data at small transverse momenta impose stringent constraints on UGDFs. Some UGDFs are inconsistent with the new data. The Kwieciński UGDFs give the best description of the data. In order to verify the mechanism suggested here we propose $J/ψ$ -- jet correlation measurement and an independent measurement of $χ_c$ meson production in $π^+ π^-$ and/or $K^+ K^-$ decay channels. Finally, we address the issue of \J spin alignment.

description: To describe Leptospira vaccination practices in dairy herds in New Zealand and evaluate conformity with best practice guidelines issued by the New Zealand Veterinary Association using data from a questionnaire administered by participating veterinary practices. A cross-sectional study of 200 randomly selected dairy farms stratified by herd size and region throughout New Zealand was conducted from January–April 2016 to investigate Leptospira vaccination practices in dairy herds in New Zealand. Using a pre-tested questionnaire administered during a face-to- face interview, vaccination practice details such as vaccine types, time and age of vaccination and whether vaccines were administered by veterinary or farm staff, were collected. Leptospiral vaccination programmes had been implemented on 199/200 (99.5 (95% CI=97.2–99.9)%) farms, and on 178 (89.4%) of those, programmes had been running for ≥5 years. Most farmers used bivalent vaccines containing antigens for leptospiral serovars Pomona and Hardjo (144/179 (80.4%) in calves, 112/167 (60.7%) in heifers and 112/163 (68.7%) in cows), rather than trivalent vaccines which also include antigens for L. interrogans serovar Copenhageni. In total, 123/200 (61.5%) of farmers purchased only vaccinated animals but 51/199 (25.6%) were unsure of the vaccination status of purchased cattle. Sixty one percent (105/172) of farmers had other livestock on their farms and of them, 78/186 (42%) vaccinated some or all for Leptospira. Leptospiral vaccines were administered always or sometimes with other animal remedies on 30/190 (15.8%) and 91/190 (47.9%) of farms, respectively. Most farmers had not made changes to their vaccination programme in the previous 5 years. Timing of first vaccination of calves ranged from 2 weeks to 10 months of age, with 112/189 (59.3%) vaccinating by 4 months of age. Approximately half of farms followed best practice guideline for the timing of vaccinations for calves (high-risk farms; 67/162; 41.4%) heifers (72/165, 43.6%), and cows (171/184; 92.9%). The results of this survey suggest that there is almost universal adoption of leptospiral vaccination for dairy cattle in New Zealand. However, there remain areas for improvement regarding the proportion of farmers following best practice guidelines and refinement of vaccination programmes, particularly with respect to timing of vaccination in calves.

Despite large vorticity and angular momentum, we show that the system does not complete a single rotation.

Taking bosolization method in a two-flavor Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model, we derive effective meson Lagrangian density with minimal coupling to the magnetic field, by employing derivative expansion for both the meson fields and Schwinger phases. We extract from the effective Lagrangian density the meson curvature, pole and screening masses. As the only Goldstone mode, the neutral pion controls the thermodynamics of the system and propagates the lang range quark interaction. The magnetic field breaks down the space symmetry, and the quark interaction region changes from a sphere in vacuum to a ellipsoid in magnetic field.

description: : To explore recommendations that New Zealand veterinarians make for diagnosing and managing bovine viral diarrhoea (BVD) in cattle herds under different clinical scenarios and their opinions towards potential barriers and opportunities for implementing BVD control programmes in New Zealand. A cross-sectional survey of registered veterinarians in New Zealand was conducted in 2019. Respondents were asked about the approaches they would use to manage BVD under different clinical scenarios as well as their opinions towards national BVD control. A subset of veterinarians completed a more in-depth survey providing additional free-text responses on a range of different BVD topics. Descriptive statistics were provided for all quantitative study variables and the free-text responses were also analysed to generate further insights into veterinarians’ perceptions towards BVD management. The cross-sectional survey was completed by 101 veterinarians out of an estimated 870 (11.6%) cattle veterinarians. Thirty-five veterinarians completed the in-depth survey. There was wide variation in the BVD diagnostic testing and vaccination protocols that respondents recommended under different clinical scenarios. Annual bulk milk BVD testing was perceived as a valuable tool for initiating BVD discussions with dairy farmers. Respondents indicated that beef farmers were more difficult to engage in BVD control largely due the logistical challenges of yarding cattle at the appropriate times to implement interventions, with many farmers only contacting veterinarians after experiencing a BVD outbreak Most respondents (91/101; 90%) believed it was possible to eradicate BVD from New Zealand, but cited lack of farmer awareness and poor compliance with management recommendations as significant barriers. The most supported measure for inclusion in a compulsory national eradication programme was requiring farmers to declare the status of their animals prior to sale while the least supported measure was requiring farmers to double fence boundaries to prevent nose-to-nose contact with neighbouring stock. Although respondents highlighted the need for farmers and industry to support any national eradication programme in order for it to be successful, there was also recognition that veterinarians could be more proactive in engaging with farmers particularly in discussions around the economics of BVD. While the survey respondents appeared to be highly supportive of BVD control, it was perceived that financial and logistical barriers existed that could impede farmer engagement. Further extension efforts may be needed to ensure that veterinarians are presenting clear and consistent recommendations about BVD management to farmers.
Sparsifying preconditioner for the time-harmonic Maxwell's equations

description: This paper presents the sparsifying preconditioner for the time-harmonic Maxwell's equations in the integral formulation. Following the work on sparsifying preconditioner for the Lippmann-Schwinger equation, this paper generalizes that approach from the scalar wave case to the vector case. The key idea is to construct a sparse approximation to the dense system by minimizing the non-local interactions in the integral equation, which allows for applying sparse linear solvers to reduce the computational cost. When combined with the standard GMRES solver, the number of preconditioned iterations remains small and essentially independent of the frequency. This suggests that, when the sparsifying preconditioner is adopted, solving the dense integral system can be done as efficiently as solving the sparse system from PDE discretization.

description: In the equation of motion approach to the two-time Green's functions, conventional Tyablikov-type truncation of the chain of equations is rather arbitrary and apt to violate the analytical structure of Green's functions. Here, we propose a practical way to truncate the equations of motion using operator projection. The partial projection approximation is introduced to evaluate the Liouville matrix. It guarantees the causality of Green's functions, fulfills the time translation invariance and the particle-hole symmetry, and is easy to implement in a computer. To benchmark this method, we study the Anderson impurity model using the operator basis at the level of Lacroix approximation. Improvement over conventional Lacroix approximation is observed. The distribution of Kondo screening in the energy space is studied using this method.

description:
Sulfide in the surface ocean has been recently considered as a source of hydrogen sulfide gas in the marine boundary layer. This "oxic" sulfide may also be important as a ligand in trace metal complexation. In the absence of actual data, the existence of sulfide in the ocean mixed layer remains speculative. The purpose of this study was to develop a sensitive technique (having picomolar detection limits) for the determination of sulfide in seawater, and to investigate the distribution of sulfide in the surface ocean.

In order to assess the abundance and distribution of sulfide in surface waters, samples were collected during two field investigations in the shelf and slope waters of the western Atlantic Ocean. Sulfide determinations were made using gas chromatography and photoionization detection. Sulfide was complexed with zinc and preconcentrated via filtration onto a 0.4 μm Nuclepore filter. The sulfide on the filter was then volatilized via acidification and detected as H2s. A direct technique, where sulfide is liberated as H2s following acidification of the water sample, served to intercalibrate the zinc-sulfide technique.

Generally, sulfide concentrations were in the pico- to nanomolar range, the highest values (around 1 nmol/L) occurring during the summer field study off the coast of Virginia. The field investigations also indicate that sulfide varies both temporally and spatially.

Possible mechanisms which might affect the existence of sulfide in the mixed layer are the hydrolysis of carbonyl sulfide (HS- production) and sulfide oxidation. A model based on this production/removal process predicts sulfide variability different than that observed in the field. Thus, other production and removal mechanisms need to be considered.

Population trapping in three-state quantum loops revealed by Householder reflections

description: Population trapping occurs when a particular quantum-state superposition is immune to action by a specific interaction, such as the well-known dark state in a three-state lambda system. We here show that in a three-state loop linkage, a Hilbert-space Householder reflection breaks the loop and presents the linkage as a single chain. With certain conditions on the interaction parameters, this chain can break into a simple two-state system and an additional spectator state. Alternatively, a two-photon resonance condition in this Householder-basis chain can be enforced, which heralds the existence of another spectator state. These spectator states generalize the usual dark state to include contributions from all three bare basis states and disclose hidden population trapping effects, and hence hidden constants of motion. Insofar as a spectator state simplifies the overall dynamics, its existence facilitates the derivation of analytic solutions and the design of recipes for quantum state engineering in the loop system. Moreover, it is shown that a suitable sequence of Householder transformations can cast an arbitrary N-dimensional hermitian Hamiltonian into a tridiagonal form. The implication is that a general N-state system, with arbitrary linkage patterns where each state connects to any other state, can be reduced to an equivalent chainwise-connected system, with nearest-neighbor interactions only, with ensuing possibilities for discovering hidden multidimensional spectator states and constants of motion.

description: I present a hybrid-like two-step algorithm, which combines a microcanonical update of a spin system using demons, with a multicanonical demon refresh. The algorithm is free from the supercritical slowing down that burdens the canonical methods: the exponential increase of the tunnelling time between the metastable states in the first-order phase transitions, when the volume of the system is increased. The demons act as a buffer between the multicanonical heat bath and the spin system, allowing the spin system to be updated with any microcanonical demon procedure, including cluster methods. The cluster algorithm is demonstrated with the 2-dimensional 7-state Potts model, using volumes up to $128^2$. The tunnelling time is found to increase as $L^{1.82}$, where $L$ is the linear dimension of the system.

Engineers are increasingly involved in startup companies in which they make business decisions as well as engineering decisions. Even in large firms, highly integrated product development cycles bring engineers into closer contact with marketing and other business people than in years past. Engineers must now think about ethical issues that were once the province of business managers. In addition, the rapid growth of biotechnology and e-commerce has created a new ethical landscape in which engineers must operate. The aim here is to examine a few of the issues that bring business ethics into the engineer’s life: professionalism in management, quality and safety, intellectual property, and international business ethics.

description: The classical literature on tax shifting Is largely concerned with the microeconomic aspects of the problem and the welfare implication of particular forms of supplying the general revenue. Those propositions that are generally accepted on the basis of consistency with validated economic theory, specific empirical tests, or both» furnish a basis for predicting the effect of particular sources or tax revenue on the relative prices of particular commodities. Among the more familiar propositions is the conclusion that direct and indirect taxes will have substantially different effects on the prices of particular commodities.

Chemo-Mechanical Interactions to Improve Intestinal Retention of Ingestible Medical Devices

Subjects: Biomedical Engineering not elsewhere classified

description:  Addressing the challenge of retaining medical devices within the small intestine while minimizing tissue trauma is a significant clinical endeavor. Current methods like tissue-piercing microneedles cause inflammation due to epithelial damage, while mucoadhesives are prone to fouling. To tackle this issue, inspiration is drawn from the structure of intestinal villi, and a novel approach is explored: using high-aspect-ratio elastomeric microposts to mechanically interlock with the villi, creating intestinal retentive platforms.
To assess the feasibility of mechanical interlocking, comprehensive mechanical simulations are conducted. The effectiveness of micropost interlocking based on variables such as their elastic moduli and the degree of overlap with villi are characterized. This study extends to intricate models that analyze the interplay between devices equipped with microposts and the villi. By adjusting micropost density, arrangement, and tip geometry, their resilience against peristaltic stresses is evaluated. Subsequently, simulations are validated by fabricating microposts and artificial soft villi using Digital Light Processing 3D printing along with a multi-step replica-molding technique. The interlocking behavior between the fabricated villi and interlockers is quantified using lap-shear tests on a custom in vitro test bed. 
The validation process not only reinforces the simulations but also lays the groundwork for employing computational techniques in the analysis of elastomeric mechanical interlocking systems in future endeavors. These innovative devices introduce a compliant and non-invasive approach to developing intestinal retentive platforms. 
Beyond the realm of mechanical interlocking, the application of genipin — a naturally derived protein crosslinker, to create gelatin-based hydrogels is explored. Their application as robust intestinal mucoadhesives is studied and they are further used to create radially self-expanding mucoadhesive stents for intestinal retention.
Spectral density of an interacting dot coupled indirectly to conducting leads

description: We study the spectral density of electrons rho in an interacting quantum dot (QD) with a hybridization lambda to a non-interacting QD, which in turn is coupled to a non-interacting conduction band. The system corresponds to an impurity Anderson model in which the conduction band has a Lorentzian density of states of width Delta2. We solved the model using perturbation theory in the Coulomb repulsion U (PTU) up to second order and a slave-boson mean-field approximation (SBMFA). The PTU works surprisingly well near the exactly solvable limit Delta2 -> 0. For fixed U and large enough lambda or small enough Delta2, the Kondo peak in rho(omega) splits into two peaks. This splitting can be understood in terms of weakly interacting quasiparticles. Before the splitting takes place the universal properties of the model in the Kondo regime are lost. Using the SBMFA, simple analytical expressions for the occurrence of split peaks are obtained. For small or moderate Delta2, the side bands of rho(omega) have the form of narrow resonances, that were missed in previous studies using the numerical renormalization group. This technique also has shortcomings for describing properly the split Kondo peaks. As the temperature is increased, the intensity of the split Kondo peaks decreases, but it is not completely suppressed at high temperatures.

description: "Sustainability" is becoming an increasingly important attribute of economic activities in terms of methods of construction and attributes of capital investment. This is due to the current concern with environmental conservation and changes in perceptions among consumers and investors. At present, the built environment and “sustainability” are closely intertwined, and popular attention towards "green buildings" have significantly increased over the past decade. This reflects the potential importance of real property in matters of environmental conservation. As built environment and their associated construction activities utilize 40% of total energy production, 12-16% of all available water, 32% of non-renewable and renewable resources, 25% of all timber production, 40% of all raw materials, produces 30-40% of all solid wastes and emits 35-40% of CO2. As a result, there has been remarkable attention to “Green Buildings” by planners, developers, and investors. It is claimed that green-certified buildings have lower operating costs and increased asset values and that they offer a healthier and safer environment for occupants. The award of the Green Status by a Green Rating System demonstrates an owner’s commitment to environmental protection and social responsibility. Globally evidence emerged that green-certified buildings achieve higher financial returns which are referred to as “Green Premium or Green Value” in the literature. Therefore, this review paper attempts to explore the green building features and their importance in estimating the market value of Green Buildings.

description: Third party tracking allows companies to identify users and track their behaviour across multiple digital services. This paper presents an empirical study of the prevalence of third-party trackers on 959,000 apps from the US and UK Google Play stores. We find that most apps contain third party tracking, and the distribution of trackers is long-tailed with several highly dominant trackers accounting for a large portion of the coverage. The extent of tracking also differs between categories of apps; in particular, news apps and apps targeted at children appear to be amongst the worst in terms of the number of third party trackers associated with them. Third party tracking is also revealed to be a highly trans-national phenomenon, with many trackers operating in jurisdictions outside the EU. Based on these findings, we draw out some significant legal compliance challenges facing the tracking industry.

Monte Carlo simulation of lattice ${\rm CP}^{N-1}$ models at large N

Year: 1992
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Lattice (hep-lat)

description: In order to check the validity and the range of applicability of the 1/N expansion, we performed numerical simulations of the two-dimensional lattice CP(N-1) models at large N, in particular we considered the CP(20) and the CP(40) models. Quantitative agreement with the large-N predictions is found for the correlation length defined by the second moment of the correlation function, the topological susceptibility and the string tension. On the other hand, quantities involving the mass gap are still far from the large-$N$ results showing a very slow approach to the asymptotic regime. To overcome the problems coming from the severe form of critical slowing down observed at large N in the measurement of the topological susceptibility by using standard local algorithms, we performed our simulations implementing the Simulated Tempering method.

subject: FOS: Economics and business

description: Given a set of clauses in propositional logic that have been found satisfiable, we wish to check whether satisfiability is preserved when the clause set is incremented with a new clause. We describe an efficient implementation of the Davis-Putnam-Loveland algorithm for checking the satisfiability of the original set. We then show how to modify the algorithm for efficient solution of the incremental problem, which is NP-complete. We also report computational results.
