description: Citrus fruits are rich sources of bioactive compounds and their consumption is associated to health-promoting effects. Citrus processing wastes contain bioflavonoids and other high added value compounds. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antiallergic properties of a new phytoextract obtained by citrus wastes and peels. Blood orange and lemon processing wastes were used to produce a Red orange and Lemon Extract (RLE). Blood samples from 30 allergic donors were collected and used to evaluate the basophil activation (CD203c) and degranulation (CD63) by stimulation trough allergen with and without the RLE. Reduced basophil expression of CD203c and CD63 were observed in RLE + Allergen treated samples, with −20.21% of CD203c expression (p p

description: Evaluation of the demand for emerging transportation technologies and policies can vary by time of day due to spillbacks on roadways, rescheduling of travelers' activity patterns, and shifting to other modes that affect the level of congestion. These effects are not well-captured with static travel demand models. We calibrate and validate the first open-source multi-agent simulation model for New York City, called MATSim-NYC, to support agencies in evaluating policies such as congestion pricing. The simulation-based virtual test bed is loaded with an 8M+ synthetic 2016 population calibrated in a prior study. The road network is calibrated to INRIX speed data and average annual daily traffic for a screenline along the East River crossings, resulting in average speed differences of 7.2% on freeways and 17.1% on arterials, leading to average difference of +1.8% from the East River screenline. Validation against transit stations shows an 8% difference from observed counts and median difference of 29% for select road link counts. The model is used to evaluate a congestion pricing plan proposed by the Regional Plan Association and suggests a much higher (127K) car trip reduction compared to their report (59K). The pricing policy would impact the population segment making trips within Manhattan differently from the population segment of trips outside Manhattan. The multiagent simulation can show that 37.3% of the Manhattan segment would be negatively impacted by the pricing compared to 39.9% of the non-Manhattan segment, which has implications for redistribution of congestion pricing revenues. The citywide travel consumer surplus decreases when the congestion pricing goes up from $9.18 to $14 both ways even as it increases for the Charging-related population segment. This implies that increasing pricing from $9.18 to $14 benefits Manhattanites at the expense of the rest of the city.

A detail study of magnetic properties of Pr0.7Ca0.3CoO3 and Nd0.7Ca0.3CoO2.95 shows that the materials are inhomogeneous, exhibiting properties similar to those of frustrated magnetic systems. In both these cobaltates, small ferromagnetic clusters seem to be present in an antiferromagnetic host.

description: The key to accurate 3D shape measurement in Fringe Projection Profilometry (FPP) is the proper calibration of the measurement system. Current calibration techniques rely on phase-coordinate mapping (PCM) or back-projection stereo-vision (SV) methods. PCM methods are cumbersome to implement as they require precise positioning of the calibration target relative to the FPP system but produce highly accurate measurements within the calibration volume. SV methods generally do not achieve the same accuracy level. However, the calibration is more flexible in that the calibration target can be arbitrarily positioned. In this work, we propose a hybrid calibration method that leverages the SV calibration approach using a PCM method to achieve higher accuracy. The method has the flexibility of SV methods, is robust to lens distortions, and has a simple relation between the recovered phase and the metric coordinates. Experimental results show that the proposed Hybrid method outperforms the SV method in terms of accuracy and reconstruction time due to its low computational complexity.

description: This paper estimates trade duration of raw coffee exports into the European Union (EU) market comparing different discrete-time duration models using monthly trade panel data from 1988 to 2013. As coffee is an important export commodity and revenue generator for many developing and least developed economies, successful and long-term trade relationships are essential. Results reveal that major gravity model variables also explain duration of EU coffee imports. Moreover, we find that both, exporting countries and importing county characteristics, matter in explaining duration of trade. Keywords: Trade duration, Discrete-time Analysis

Cavity-assisted enhanced and dephasing immune squeezing in the resonance fluorescence of a single quantum dot

description: We theoretically demonstrate the enhanced and dephasing immune squeezing in the resonance fluorescence of a single quantum dot (QD) confined to a pillar-microcavity and driven by a continuous wave laser. We employ a formalism based on Polaron master equation theory for incorporating the influence of exciton-phonon coupling quite accurately in the dot-cavity system. We show a significant enhancement of squeezing due to cavity coupling of the QD as compared to that of an ideal single two-level system in free space. Particularly, we show a four-fold enhancement in squeezing as compared to that of a single QD without cavity coupling. We further demonstrate the persistence of squeezing even when the pure dephasing becomes greater than the radiative decay rate. These novel features are attributed to the cavity-enhanced coherence causing partial reduction of the deteriorating effects of phonon-induced incoherent rates. We also show that the deteriorating effects of phonon-induced incoherent rates on squeezing can be partially circumvented by properly adjusting the detunings.

description: I read the commendation during the nightly "Last Post Ceremony at the Menin Gate", Ieper/Ypres, Belgium, on 11th December 2012.In December 2012 I did some work in the "In Flanders Fields Museum" in Ieper, Belgium. While I was there I visited the Menin Gate for a guided tour. During the tour as the only British man present, I was asked to read a Sassoon poem to the group. Little did I know that this was a kind of audition, because when we left the ramparts and went down to join the ceremony the guide pulled me aside and introduced me to the leader of the Last Post Association. During that evening's ceremony I read the Exhortation (from 'For the Fallen' by Laurence Binyon), standing in the middle of the road under the arch of the Hall of Memory.From the website of Great War 1914-1918: "The Menin Gate Memorial to the Missing is one of four British and Commonwealth memorials to the missing in the battlefield area of the Ypres Salient in Belgian Flanders. The memorial bears the names of 54,389 officers and men from UK and Commonwealth Forces (except New Zealand and Newfoundland) who fell in the Ypres Salient before 16th August 1917 and who have no known grave."

description: The state of the municipal waste management in the urban areas of Podlaskie region has recently shown a significant improvement. In 2008 only one out of the 26 person included in the research did not sign any contract for his/her household waste disposal. However, waste containers often have too small capacity. In most households a considerable amount of waste is still disposed of by owners individually. Therefore it seems to be advisable to take action and create a legal basis for municipalities to control the amounts of waste disposed of by households or to introduce a waste disposal payment dependent on the number of person in the household instead of on the amount of the waste disposed. / Synopsis. Stan gospodarki odpadami komunalnymi na terenach wiejskich województwa podlaskiego w ostatnim okresie uległ znacznej poprawie. Tylko jedna spośród 26 osób objętych badaniami w 2008 roku nie posiadała żadnej umowy wywozu odpadów komunalnych. Posiadane pojemniki na odpady są jednak często zbyt małej pojemności. Nadal w większości (około 67%) gospodarstw domowych znaczna cześć odpadów zagospodarowywana jest we własnym zakresie. Wskazane więc wydaje się podjęcie przez gminy działań mających na celu zmniejszenie ilości odpadów niewłaściwie zagospodarowywanych.

A dressed ion-pair model captures the physical origin of these exotic molecules, accurately predicts their properties, and reveals features of ultralong-range Rydberg molecules and heavy Rydberg states with a surprisingly small Rydberg constant. The latter is determined by the small effective charge of the dressed anion, which outweighs the contribution of the molecule's large reduced mass. This renders these molecules the only known few-body systems to have a Rydberg constant smaller than $R_\infty/2$.

description: Quantum refrigerators pump heat from a cold to a hot reservoir. In the few-particle regime, counter-diabatic (CD) driving of, originally adiabatic, work-exchange strokes is a promising candidate to overcome the bottleneck of vanishing cooling power. Here, we present a finite-time many-body quantum refrigerator that yields finite cooling power at high coefficient of performance, that considerably outperforms its non-adiabatic counterpart. We employ multi-spin CD driving and numerically investigate the scaling behavior of the refrigeration performance with system size. We further prove that optimal refrigeration via the exact CD protocol is a catalytic process.

description: One of the most enigmatic phenomena related to solar activity is the so-called Maunder minimum phase. It consists of the lowest sunspot's counting ever registered for the Sun, and never so far confirmed for other stars. Since the spectroscopic observations of stellar activity at the Mount Wilson Observatory, the solar analog HD43587 has shown a very low and apparently invariant activity level, which makes it a Maunder minimum candidate. We analyze the chromospheric activity evolution of HD43587 and its evolutive status, intending to unravel the reasons for this low and flat activity. We use an activity measurements dataset available in the literature, and compute the activity S-index from HARPS and NARVAL spectra, to infer a cycle period. Besides, we analyze the CoRoT light-curve of HD43587, and apply gyrochronology and activity calibrations, to determine its rotation period. Finally, based on an evolutionary model and the inferred rotation period, we use the EULAG-MHD code to perform global MHD simulations of HD43587 with the aim of getting some insights about its dynamo process. We confirm the almost flat activity profile, with a cycle period $P_{\mathrm{cyc}} = 10.44\pm3.03$ yrs deduced from the S-index time series, and a long-term trend that might be a period larger than 50 yrs. It was impossible to define a rotation period from the light-curve, however gyrochronology and activity calibrations allow to infer an indirect estimate of $\overline{P}_{\mathrm{rot}} = 22.6 \pm 1.9$ d. Furthermore, the MHD simulations confirm an oscillatory dynamo with a cycle period in good agreement with the observations and a low level of surface magnetic activity. We conclude that this object might be experiencing a "natural" decrease in magnetic activity as a consequence of its age. Nevertheless, the possibility that HD43587 is in a Maunder minimum phase cannot be ruled out.

description: We describe all blocks of the category of finite-dimensional $\mathfrak{q}(3)$-supermodules by providing their extension quivers. We also obtain two general results about the representation of $\mathfrak{q}(n)$: we show that the Ext quiver of the standard block of $\mathfrak{q}(n)$ is obtained from the principal block of $\mathfrak{q}(n-1)$ by identifying certain vertices of the quiver and prove a ''virtual'' BGG-reciprocity for $\mathfrak{q}(n)$. The latter result is used to compute the radical filtrations of $\mathfrak{q}(3)$ projective covers.

description: A hypothesized rise in oxygen levels in the Neoproterozoic, dubbed the Neoproterozoic oxygenation event (NOE), has been repeatedly linked to the origin and rise of animal life. However, a new body of work has emerged over the past decade that questions this narrative. We explore available proxy records of atmospheric and marine oxygenation and, considering the unique systematics of each geochemical system, attempt to reconcile the data. We also present new results from a comprehensive COPSE biogeochemical model that combines several recent additions, to create a continuous model record from 850 to 250 Mya. We conclude that oxygen levels were intermediate across the Ediacaran and early Palaeozoic, and highly dynamic. Stable, modern-like conditions were not reached until the Late Palaeozoic. We therefore propose that the terms Neoproterozoic Oxygenation Window (NOW) and Palaeozoic Oxygenation Event (POE) are more appropriate descriptors of the rise of oxygen in Earth's atmosphere and oceans.

description: We study quantum criticality of the magnetic field induced charge density wave (CDW) order in correlated spinless Dirac fermions on the $π$-flux square lattice at zero temperature as a prototypical example of the magnetic catalysis, by using the infinite density matrix renormalization group. It is found that the CDW order parameter $M(B)$ exhibits an anomalous magnetic field $(B)$ scaling behavior characteristic of the $(2+1)$-dimensional chiral Ising universality class near the quantum critical point, which leads to a strong enhancement of $M(B)$ compared with a mean field result. We also establish a global phase diagram in the interaction-magnetic field plane for the fermionic quantum criticality.

description: The aim of the research was to analyze the level of profitability of pig farms characterized by different production systems: opened or closed. Analysis was made for all farms which produced 100 and more porkers per year and maintained accountancy within the Polish FADN in years 2004-2005. The research shows that the higher specialization was connected with lower input of production factors. The costs structure of pigs for slaughter production was characterized by the highest share of fodder costs. Higher farm income was achieved in farms with closed production system. In this group higher profitability of labour and fixed assets was noted too. These farms had bigger capacity for saving and self-financing in comparison with farms that followed the open system of production. / Celem badań było określenie poziomu dochodów rolniczych w gospodarstwach prowadzących chów trzody chlewnej w różnych systemach: otwartym lub zamkniętym. Analizą objęto wszystkie gospodarstwa, które produkowaáy 100 i więcej tuczników rocznie oraz prowadziły rachunkowość w ramach polskiego FADN w latach 2004-2006. Z badań wynika, że z większą specjalizacją gospodarstw wiązały się mniejsze nakłady czynników produkcji. W strukturze kosztów produkcji żywca wieprzowego największy udział stanowiły koszty pasz. Wyższy poziom dochodu rolniczego osiągnięto w gospodarstwach o zamkniętym systemie chowu trzody chlewnej. W tej grupie odnotowano także wyższą dochodowość pracy i środków trwałych. Gospodarstwa te posiadały także wyższą zdolność do samofinansowania działalności i tworzenia oszczędności w porównaniu z gospodarstwami o otwartym systemie produkcji.

description: An external load on a particle packing is distributed internally through a heterogeneous network of particle contacts. This contact force distribution determines the stability of the particle packing and the resulting structure. Here, we investigate the homogeneity of the contact force distribution in packings of highly non-convex particles both in two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) packings. A newly developed discrete element method is used to model packings of non-convex particles of varying sphericity. Our results establish that in 3D packings the distribution of the contact forces in the normal direction becomes increasingly heterogeneous with decreasing particle sphericity. However, in 2D packings the contact force distribution is independent of particle sphericity, indicating that results obtained in 2D packings cannot be extrapolated readily to 3D packings. Radial distribution functions (RDFs) show that the crystallinity in 3D packings decreases with decreasing particle sphericity. We link the decreasing homogeneity of the contact force distributions to the decreasing crystallinity of 3D packings. These findings are complementary to the previously observed link between the heterogeneity of the contact force distribution and a decreasing packing crystallinity due to an increasing polydispersity of spherical particles.

description: ‘Polylines Intersect Polylines’ refers to a spatial relationship criterion where two or more polyline features from one layer, intersect two or more polyline features from another layer in a GIS environment. This criterion is used to identify places where different linear features, such as roads, pipelines, or utility lines, physically cross or share common points.

In GIS analysis, this helps ensure that certain connectivity, overlap, or crossing relationships are correctly represented between layers, aiding in tasks like network analysis, infrastructure management, and spatial data validation.

Our practical example involves working with a Detailed Urban Plan in a digital CAD format. This plan consists of multiple layers, including building lines, land parcels, existing streets, buildings, stormwater drainage, water supply systems, and more. Among these layers are underground power cables and underground telecommunication lines—both optical and copper. The telecommunication lines are categorized as either existing or planned.

In this example, we’ll focus on determining if, and where, the planned telecommunication optical cable trench intersects with the existing underground electrical power cables. These power cables are buried for electricity transmission and distribution, making this analysis crucial. It's a high-risk task, as digging and trenching without proper knowledge of existing cables can be hazardous for field workers.
Metaphors and mental models of risk : expert thinking about ecosystems

description: Ecosystems are important to human survival and well-being (MEA, 2005). Human knowledge of ecosystems largely consists of the conceptual distinctions made by experts. Experts use different metaphors and mental models to define ecosystem risks and shape our thinking. Decision makers face a dilemma when experts use conflicting frames of reference to define the same problem. This research attempts to answer three questions. Do experts have different mental models of risk? Do their mental models of risk stem from different underlying worldviews? Do their worldviews arise from differences in their professional background or work experience? Repertory grid methodologies were used to elicit expert mental models. The analysis relied on Shaw and Gaines’s (1989) methodology for comparing experts’ conceptual systems. The data for this study was collected through a two-stage survey. The interview stage of the survey was used to identify widely shared conceptual distinctions experts use to talk about ecosystems. During the second stage, experts were asked to complete a web-based questionnaire, applying these shared distinctions to describe how several concepts or types of ecosystems differed from one another. The Interview stage of the survey revealed that ecological integrity was the dominant mental model of risk and the experts shared a common set of beliefs. These beliefs were most heavily influenced by the experts’ current position and previous work experience. The Internet stage of the survey revealed that the eco-concepts shared more similarities than differences. The eco-concepts as a whole belonged to one of two metaphoric categories that distinguished pristine from human-impacted systems. There was also a broad consensus among experts in the way they used the derived assessment criteria to describe the eco-concepts. The findings suggest that the survey subjects shared a common underlying mental model of ecosystem risk.
title: Deaf pupils' experiences of inclusion within a mainstream primary school: a case-study
Creators: name: Bower, Sarah
Publisher: name: The Open University

description: The aims of the study are: To research, and document, deaf pupils' experiences of inclusion, their perceptions of the way teachers view deafness, and to observe the effect of using sign language to educate the children within a mainstream setting. This study has as its focus 5 deaf pupils who are part of a Hearing Impaired Unit of 20 deaf children within the Greenview mainstream primary school for 700 pupils. I focus on three research themes: 1) Inclusion. Firstly: how do deaf pupils describe/feel about their learning experience in an inclusive classroom? Secondly: are deaf pupils a unique group in tenns of their needs? 2) Pedagogy. Firstly: what educational strategies are in place to make inclusion of deaf pupils work? Secondly: how do teachers' perceptions of deafness affect their pedagogy? 3) Communication. How does the presence of a facilitator, and their participation in the classroom, influence the situation? The philosophy influencing this study stems from a socio-constructivist perspective, and the three themes of inclusion, pedagogy and communication are revisited in each chapter. This study follows an ethnographic case study methodology, using an adaptation of Stake's (1995) 7 step methodology to address pupil issues, and Wood et aI's (1986) Moves Matrix codes to analyse pupl/teacher dialogue. Within its framework, the study uses observation and interview techniques to gain insights, from the child's perspective, as to how one school's 'inclusive' policy is experienced in practice. The study reveals surprising observations, finding that, for example: Within the theme of inclusion: Deaf pupils felt they could flourish within a mainstream classroom provided their unique identity and language needs were recognised and valued. They felt comfortable with "deaf aware" mainstream teachers who improved acoustic conditions within the classroom, managed audio equipment to amplify speech and kept background noise low. Within the theme of pedagogy: Experienced "deaf aware" teachers actively planned lessons with specialist staff to use a range of strategies suitable for deaf children's' learning. These experienced teachers adapted their communication strategies to use a more flexible approach to talking and listening. Within the theme of communication: BSL provides good language learning opportunities for the deaf pupils, but this is not always matched by the attitudes of mainstream staff. The mode of communication does not influence pupils as much as the strategy the teacher uses to introduce lessons. Deaf adults are necessary in the classroom to provide deaf children with mature BSL language experience and adult role models. A summary emerges of the experiences of deaf pupils at Greenview, and the aspects of inclusion that they find most helpful to learning. Such a multi-faceted glimpse into the children's educational experience will be of interest to teachers, parents and all those involved in the disability/inclusion debate.

description: Condensed Matter Physics (CMP) seeks to understand the microscopic interactions of matter at the quantum and atomistic levels, and describes how these interactions result in both mesoscopic and macroscopic properties. CMP overlaps with many other important branches of science, such as Chemistry, Materials Science, Statistical Physics, and High-Performance Computing. With the advancements in modern Machine Learning (ML) technology, a keen interest in applying these algorithms to further CMP research has created a compelling new area of research at the intersection of both fields. In this review, we aim to explore the main areas within CMP, which have successfully applied ML techniques to further research, such as the description and use of ML schemes for potential energy surfaces, the characterization of topological phases of matter in lattice systems, the prediction of phase transitions in off-lattice and atomistic simulations, the interpretation of ML theories with physics-inspired frameworks and the enhancement of simulation methods with ML algorithms. We also discuss in detail the main challenges and drawbacks of using ML methods on CMP problems, as well as some perspectives for future developments.

description: The paper addresses issues of the economic decline of farms in the mountain and sub- mountain areas. The main objective of the work was to present opinions of users of farms reducing production concerning the way of future use of land resources at their disposal and the influence of the European integration process on their farm economic situation. The conducted analyses show a considerably advanced processes of economic decline in the investigated farms. In the perspective of a few years more than half of them will most probably lose their agricultural status, whereas the other will assume or stabilize their character of supplementary farms, where incomes derived from farming will actually provide only additional and generally small part of family income. Respondents’ opinions on the influence of the European integration on their farms are diversified, but they only rarely see a chance for their farms’ development, which results mainly from the acreage and character of the analyzed subjects. / Synopsis. W pracy podjęto zagadnienia dotyczące upadku ekonomicznego gospodarstw na obszarach górskich i podgórskich. Głównym celem opracowania było przedstawienie opinii użytkowników gospodarstw ograniczających produkcję na temat planowanego sposobu wykorzystania posiadanych zasobów ziemi i wpływu procesu integracji europejskiej na sytuację gospodarstwa. W wyniku przeprowadzonych analiz można stwierdzić bardzo duże zaawansowanie procesów upadku ekonomicznego w badanych gospodarstwach. Ponad połowa z nich w perspektywie kilkunastu lat utraci najprawdopodobniej charakter rolniczy, a pozostałe przyjmą lub utrwalą charakter gospodarstw suplementarnych, z których dochody stanowić będą jedynie dodatkową i to na ogół niewielką część dochodów rodziny. Zdania respondentów na temat wpływu integracji europejskiej na ich gospodarstwa są podzielone, niemniej bardzo rzadko upatrują oni szans na rozwój swoich gospodarstw, co wynika głównie z wielkości i charakteru badanych podmiotów.

description: There are emerging tensions for theory results of the hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment both within recent lattice QCD calculations and between some lattice QCD calculations and R-ratio results. In this paper we work towards scrutinizing critical aspects of these calculations. We focus in particular on a precise calculation of Euclidean position-space windows defined by RBC/UKQCD that are ideal quantities for cross-checks within the lattice community and with R-ratio results. We perform a lattice QCD calculation using physical up, down, strange, and charm sea quark gauge ensembles generated in the staggered formalism by the MILC collaboration. We study the continuum limit using inverse lattice spacings from $a^{-1}\approx 1.6$ GeV to $3.5$ GeV, identical to recent studies by FNAL/HPQCD/MILC and Aubin et al. and similar to the recent study of BMW. Our calculation exhibits a tension for the particularly interesting window result of $a_μ^{\rm ud, conn.,isospin, W}$ from $0.4$ fm to $1.0$ fm with previous results obtained with a different discretization of the vector current on the same gauge configurations. Our results may indicate a difficulty related to estimating uncertainties of the continuum extrapolation that deserves further attention. In this work we also provide results for $a_μ^{\rm ud,conn.,isospin}$, $a_μ^{\rm s,conn.,isospin}$, $a_μ^{\rm SIB,conn.}$ for the total contribution and a large set of windows. For the total contribution, we find $a_μ^{\rm HVP~LO}=714(27)(13) 10^{-10}$, $a_μ^{\rm ud,conn.,isospin}=657(26)(12) 10^{-10}$, $a_μ^{\rm s,conn.,isospin}=52.83(22)(65) 10^{-10}$, and $a_μ^{\rm SIB,conn.}=9.0(0.8)(1.2) 10^{-10}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. We also comment on finite-volume corrections for the strong-isospin-breaking corrections.
