description: The ‘default mode network’ (DMN), a collection of brain regions including the posterior cingulate cortex (PCC),shows reliable inter-regional functional connectivity at rest. It has been implicated in rumination and othernegative affective states, but its role in suicidal ideation is not well understood. We employed seed basedfunctional connectivity methods to analyze resting state fMRI data in 34 suicidal ideators and 40 healthy controlparticipants. Whole-brain connectivity with dorsal PCC or ventral PCC was broadly intact between the twogroups, but while the control participants showed greater coupling between the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex(dACC) and dorsal PCC, compared to the dACC and ventral PCC, this difference was reversed in the ideators.Furthermore, ongoing low frequency BOLD signal in these three regions (dorsal, ventral PCC, dACC) wasreduced in the ideators. The structural integrity of the cingulum bundle, as measured using diffusion tensorimaging (DTI), also explained variation in the functional connectivity measures but did not abolish the groupdifferences. Together, these findings provide evidence of abnormalities in the DMN underlying the tendencytowards suicidal ideation.

description: This paper explores a puzzling empirical regularity: households pay less for foods as the time since receipt of their last paycheck increases. I leverage randomization with regard to paycheck timing to causally identify the effect of time since paycheck receipt on prices. Estimates of the decline in prices range between 5% and 6% percent, over the course of a month. I investigate several potential explanations for this behavior, including credit constraints and stockpiling. I find evidence that the effect is driven by low-income households and exacerbated by stockpiling behavior.

description: Farm business need to attract, retain and motive valuable workers, and meet productivity and quality goals in order to achieve their strategic objectives. Willow Bend Farm, a dairy operation run by the Muller family in upstate New York, created and implemented a strategic compensation system to help achieve farm growth over its nearly forty-year history. This paper is a case study of Willow Bend’s total compensation system from 1957-1996, during which time the farm experienced tremendous growth. The owners of Willow Bend Farm implemented an array of compensation programs over this time period, including a unique worker cow-ownership program that, by design, increases worker’s initial investment as new calves are born. Other incentives target key behaviors necessary to farm success.

description: The effect of rare-earth ions (R = Er$_3^+$, Tb$_3^+$, and Ce$_{3.75}^+$) on the dielectric properties and the electric polarization induced by local polar phase separation domains in solid solutions of R$_{0.8}$Ce$_{0.2}$Mn$_2$O$_5$ (R = Er, Tb) multiferroics has been studied. These parameters are found to qualitatively differ from those of initial RMn$_2$O$_5$ (R = Er, Tb) crystals studied before. It is shown that the properties of the polar phase separation domains that form in a subsystem of Mn3+ and Mn4+ ions due to a finite probability of tunneling electrons between these ions with different valences are substantially dependent on the values of crystal fields in which these domains exist. A combined influence of Er$_3^+$, Tb$_3^+$, and Ce$_{3.75}^+$ ions is found to substantially change the crystal field in R$_{0.8}$Ce$_{0.2}$ Mn$_2$O$_5$ (R = Er, Tb) as compared to RMn$_2$O$_5$ (R = Er, Tb).

description: The new tendencies of the fine wine global consumer market have challenged organizations to observe their resources more efficiently in order to better structure and organize their strategies towards greater competitiveness and sustainability. Based on the Competitiveness and Resource-Based View approach, together with a study of certain market patterns and tendencies, this work aimed to evaluate how certain categories of resources are being managed in an attempt to promote the competitiveness of the fine wines from São Joaquim, a recent and little studied producing region in Santa Catarina state. An exploratory-descriptive study was done to assist experts involved in the São Joaquim vitiviniculture sector. It was possible to observe that image conception and maintenance, valorization of local specificities, control of distribution channels and access to market information were considered very important to the sector, given that they mobilize different base resources in a unified manner. It is also important to emphasize that the experts pointed out organizational resources as essential in the consolidation of competitive advantages
On Precision Measurement of the Mean Curvature

Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Very small mean curvature is a robust prediction of inflation worth rigorous checking. Since current constraints are derived from determinations of the angular-diameter distance to the CMB last-scattering surface, which is also affected by dark energy, they are limited by our understanding of the dark energy. Measurements of luminosity or angular-diameter distances to redshifts in the matter-dominated era can greatly reduce this uncertainty. With a one percent measurement of the distance to z=3, combined with the CMB data expected from Planck, one can achieve sigma(Ω_k h^2) \sim 10^{-3}. A non-zero detection at this level would be evidence against inflation or for unusually large curvature fluctuations on super-Hubble scales.

description: The objective of this research was to estimate the effect of using bur extractors in cotton stripping on foreign material in harvested cotton, on both quality attributes and lint turnout, and to determine the minimum harvested acres a producer must have for a bur extractor to be cost effective. Results indicate that the bur extractor has significant effect in reducing bur percent, stick percent, and in increasing seed cotton percent and lint turnout, while is showed no statistically significant effect on any of the quality attributes. Results also suggest that investment in bur extractors is profitable for both irrigated and dryland cotton production situations with an operation of at least 750 acres. This study provides a simple method that can be employed by producers of stripper-harvested cotton to determine the cost effectiveness of a bur extractor given individualized production scenarios.

description: Analog quantum simulation has the potential to be an indispensable technique in the investigation of complex quantum systems. In this work, we numerically investigate a one-dimensional, faithful, analog, quantum electronic circuit simulator built out of Josephson junctions for one of the paradigmatic models of an integrable quantum field theory: the quantum sine-Gordon (qSG) model in 1+1 space-time dimensions. We analyze the lattice model using the density matrix renormalization group technique and benchmark our numerical results with existing Bethe ansatz computations. Furthermore, we perform analytical form-factor calculations for the two-point correlation function of vertex operators, which closely agree with our numerical computations. Finally, we compute the entanglement spectrum of the qSG model. We compare our results with those obtained using the integrable lattice-regularization based on the quantum XYZ chain and show that the quantum circuit model is less susceptible to corrections to scaling compared to the XYZ chain. We provide numerical evidence that the parameters required to realize the qSG model are accessible with modern-day superconducting circuit technology, thus providing additional credence towards the viability of the latter platform for simulating strongly interacting quantum field theories.

description: The post Gaussian effective potential in $D=2+2\veps$ dimensions is evaluated for the Ginzburg-Landau theory of superconductivity. Two and three loop integrals for the post Gaussian correction terms in $D=2+2\veps$ dimensions are calculated and $\veps$-expansion for these integrals are constructed. In $D=2+2\veps$ fractal dimensions Ginzburg Landau parameter turned out to be sensitive to $\veps$ and the contribution of the post Gaussian term is larger than that for D=3. Adjusting $\veps$ to the recent experimental data on $κ(T)$ for high -$T_c$ cuprate superconductor $Tl_2Ca_2Ba_2Cu_3O_{10} (T\cl-2223)$, we found that $\veps=0.21$ is the best choice for this material. The result clearly shows that, in order to understand high - $T_c$ superconductivity, it is necessary to include the fluctuation contribution as well as the contribution from the dimensionality of the sample. The method gives a theoretical tool to estimate the effective dimensionality of the samples.

Manual de Planos e Fundos de Pensões
Creators: name: Justino, Maria do Rosário
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2010

description: Uma das acepções mais comum do termo “plano” é a descrição pormenorizada de um projecto (um plano de viabilidade, um plano de carreira, um plano económico, etc). Por outro lado, “pensão” é a quantidade anual atribuída a uma pessoa por direito (direito à reforma previsto nas prestações da segurança social).

Neste sentido, um plano de pensões é o conjunto de normas que definem os direitos e obrigações de quem intervém nele, e que tem por objecto garantir aos seus participantes e beneficiários determinadas prestações.

Da definição anterior podemos deduzir que:

       - Um plano de pensões é, basicamente, um conjunto de normas.

       - Estas normas servem para concretizar os direitos e obrigações das pessoas e órgãos que intervêm no plano de pensões.

       - A finalidade de um plano de pensões é garantir aos seus participantes e aos beneficiários designados por estes, determinadas prestações.

 

Os planos de pensões surgem, como um modelo do sistema de previsão voluntária, como complemento ao sistema básico público. Neste modelo, os cidadãos podem, de acordo com o seu esforço de poupança, compensar a perda de recursos no momento que passam da situação de activo à de passivo, ou seja, os cidadãos podem complementar a pensão pública a que têm direito.

 

Em Portugal, os primeiros fundos de pensões surgiram em 1987, (através do Decreto-Lei nº 323/85, de 6 de Agosto), após a criação de um enquadramento legal favorável (Decreto-Lei nº 396/86, de 25 de Novembro) e com a implementação de um regime fiscal fortemente incentivador. Considerava-se que a criação de fundos de pensões constituía, nos países de organização social mais avançada, uma das formas de segurança privada que melhor responde às necessidades de protecção dos cidadãos.

O Estado foi sem dúvida o grande protagonista do desenvolvimento dos planos e fundos de pensões. A sua decisão de legislar sobre este assunto, deve-se à necessidade de regular os sistemas públicos de previsão que complementam os básicos. Criou-se assim, um produto financeiro que reforça a oferta de recursos de capitais a médio e longo prazo. Sendo que em Portugal, o exercício da actividade de gestão de fundos de pensões está sujeito à supervisão do Instituto de Seguros de Portugal, que emite as normas regulamentares necessárias ao regular funcionamento do sector dos fundos de pensões e procede à fiscalização do seu cumprimento.
Thermionic emission or tunneling? The universal transition electric field for ideal Schottky reverse leakage current in $β$-Ga$_{2}$O$_{3}$

description: The reverse leakage current through a Schottky barrier transitions from a thermionic-emission dominated regime to a barrier-tunneling dominated regime as the surface electric field increases. In this study, we evaluate such transition electric field ($E_{\rm T}$) in $β$-Ga$_{2}$O$_{3}$ using a numerical reverse leakage model. $E_{\rm T}$ is found to have very weak dependence on the doping concentration and barrier height, thus a near-universal temperature dependence suffices and is given by a simple empirical expression in Ga$_{2}$O$_{3}$. With the help of a field-plate design, we observed experimentally in Ga$_{2}$O$_{3}$ Schottky barrier diodes a near-ideal bulk reverse leakage characteristics, which matches well with our numerical model and confirms the presence of the transition region. Near the transition electric field, both thermionic emission and barrier tunneling should be considered. The study provides important guidance toward accurate design and modeling of ideal reverse leakage characteristics in $β$-Ga$_{2}$O$_{3}$ Schottky barrier diodes.

description: Our understanding of the observed elemental abundance in the universe, stemming from nuclear reactions during the big bang or from nucleosynthesis within stellar environments, requires theoretical analyses based on multidimensional nucleosynthesis calculations involving hundreds of nuclei connected via thousands of nuclear processes. Up to recently, full nucleosynthesis network calculations remained computationally expensive and prohibitive. A recent publication by a Chinese group led by YuGang Ma [1] has proved that advanced computational algorithms developed in the last decade for the purpose of studying complex networks are paving the way to finally accomplish this ultimate goal of nuclear astrophysics.

description: The dynamical status of isolated quantum systems, partly due to the linearity of the Schrodinger equation is unclear: Conventional measures fail to detect chaos in such systems. However, when quantum systems are subjected to observation -- as all experimental systems must be -- their dynamics is no longer linear and, in the appropriate limit(s), the evolution of expectation values, conditioned on the observations, closely approaches the behavior of classical trajectories. Here we show, by analyzing a specific example, that microscopic continuously observed quantum systems, even far from any classical limit, can have a positive Lyapunov exponent, and thus be truly chaotic.

description: The paper introduces a new notion of risk aversion that is independent of the good under observation and its measure scale. The representational framework builds on a time consistent combination of additive separability on certain consumption paths and the von Neumann & Morgenstern (1944) assumptions. In the one-commodity special case, the new notion of risk aversion closely relates to a disentanglement of standard risk aversion and intertemporal substitutability.

description: Education and watsan have been recognised as central to many poverty reduction programmes though evidence shows that the sanitation component is often neglected and both water and sanitation receive less attention than education for development aid (WHO, UN Water 2010). The links between education, health and sanitation are accepted, but the exact nature of causality remains unclear (Narayan & Prennushi 1999). The benefit of collaboration between these sectors to improve sanitation conditions, school learning environments and education results has already been recognised resulting in numerous School WASH programmes. Yet, despite the plethora of international targets and goals, little progress has been made in meeting the needs of the most vulnerable (WHO, UNICEF 2010).The Millennium Development Goals, whilst providing the impetus for many worthwhile programmes and efforts, fails to mention disability or disabled people. Similarly the International Development Targets for Education defined in the Jomtien 1990 “Education for All” World Conference and the Dakar “World Education Forum” in 2000 failed to specifically identify children with disabilities as a target group.....

The study was based on a theoretical gap detected in the relations between these concepts and seeks to present some contributions regarding, specifically, organic food consumption. From a review of the literature, six hypotheses were made. To assess the hypotheses, field work was conducted among 134 organic food consumers in Fortaleza, Ceará state. In order to test the hypotheses, statistical regression analysis was used After the statistical analysis, the main conclusions were: (1) the relation between satisfaction and word of mouth, in the organic food sector, is partial when analyzed together with consumer identification; (2) commitment and identification are a consistent influence on word of mouth behavior; (3) there are variations in the interaction between constructs, including mediation of commitment in the relation between identification, satisfaction and word of mouth.
Characterizing the interactions between the host defence peptide, LL-37, and lung epithelial cells

description: LL-37 is a human cationic host defense peptide that is a component of innate immunity. In addition to its modest antimicrobial activity, LL-37 affects the behavior of effector cells involved in the innate immune response, including modification of transcriptional responses. However, its mode of interaction with eukaryotic cells remains unclear. In this research study, the interaction of LL-37 with epithelial cells was characterized in tissue culture by using biotinylated LL-37 (LL-37B) and confocal microscopy. LL-37 was actively taken up into A549 human epithelial cells and eventually localized to the perinuclear region. Specific inhibitors were used to demonstrate that the uptake process was not mediated by actin but required elements normally involved in endocytosis, and that trafficking to the perinuclear region was dependent upon microtubules. Using Scatchard analysis, it was revealed that A549 epithelial cells have two receptors for LL-37B, with high and low affinity for LL-37. Further studies, consistent with other publications, that, at higher concentrations, LL-37 demonstrated some cytotoxicity. Therefore the cytotoxic nature of LL-37 was examined in the presence of different sources of serum. LL-37 was cytotoxic in the presence of 10% fetal bovine serum but not 10% human serum and that cytotoxicity led to apoptosis, as assessed by TUNEL assay and Western blot for pro-caspase-3. High density lipoproteins present in human serum, but not the major constituent in HDL, apolipoprotein A-1, inhibited LL-37-induced cytotoxicity. The localization of LL-37B differed according to the type of serum present during incubation. These results suggest that LL-37 interacts directly with epithelial cells and further our understanding of its role in modulating the innate immune response.

description: The physical evolution of Young Stellar Objects (YSOs) is accompanied by an enrichment of the molecular complexity, mainly triggered by the heating and energetic processing of the astrophysical ices. In this paper, a study of how the ice column density varies across the protostellar evolution has been performed. Tabulated data of H$_2$O, CO$_2$, CH$_3$OH, HCOOH observed by ground- and space-based telescopes toward 27 early-stage YSOs were taken from the literature. The observational data shows that ice column density and spectral index ($α$), used to classify the evolutionary stage, are well correlated. A 2D continuum radiative transfer simulation containing bare and grains covered by ices at different levels of cosmic-ray processing were used to calculate the Spectral Energy Distributions (SEDs) in different angle inclinations between face-on and edge-on configuration. The H$_2$O:CO$_2$ ice mixture was used to address the H$_2$O and CO$_2$ column density variation whereas the CH$_3$OH and HCOOH are a byproduct of the virgin ice after the energetic processing. The simulated spectra were used to calculate the ice column densities of YSOs in an evolutionary sequence. As a result, the models show that the ice column density variation of HCOOH with $α$ can be justified by the envelope dissipation and ice energetic processing. On the other hand, the ice column densities are mostly overestimated in the cases of H$_2$O, CO$_2$ and CH$_3$OH, even though the physical and cosmic-ray processing effects are taken into account.

description: The contemporary rural space needs to be considered in all its diversity. The non-agricultural activities, particularly those that involve leisure and tourism, have become increasingly important and may contribute to the local economy dynamics. The aim in this work was to identify the effects of tourism on income and job generation in the rural space. The basis of the qualitative research was a case study in São Martinho, a city in Santa Catarina state. Semi-structured interviews were done with the ten people responsible for the tourism enterprises in the district’s rural area. It was noticed that the resources originating from tourism were responsible for most of the entrepreneurs’ family revenue, contributing to an improvement in their lifestyle. There was, in the properties open for visitation, a restructuring process in which the activities related to tourism started to gain priority. The tourism-related jobs created were evaluated as meaningful.

description: In this paper we investigate the spin-current and its shot-noise spectrum in a single-molecule quantum dot coupled with a local phonon mode. We pay special attention on the effect of phonon on the quantum transport property. The spin-polarization dependent current is generated by a rotating magnetic filed applied in the quantum dot. Our results show the remarkable influence of phonon mode on the zero-frequency shot noise. The electron-phonon interaction leads to sideband peaks which are located exactly on the integer number of the phonon frequency and moreover the peak-height is sensitive to the electron-phonon coupling.

description: We consider the algebraic Bethe ansatz solution of the integrable and isotropic XXX-S Heisenberg chain with non-diagonal open boundaries. We show that the corresponding K-matrices are similar to diagonal matrices with the help of suitable transformations independent of the spectral parameter. When the boundary parameters satisfy certain constraints we are able to formulate the diagonalization of the associated double-row transfer matrix by means of the quantum inverse scattering method. This allows us to derive explicit expressions for the eigenvalues and the corresponding Bethe ansatz equations. We also present evidences that the eigenvectors can be build up in terms of multiparticle states for arbitrary S.

Universal terms for holographic entanglement entropy in noncommutative Yang--Mills theory

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this paper, we derive the universal (cut-off-independent) part of the holographic entanglement entropy in the noncommutative Yang-Mills theory and examine its properties in detail. The behavior of the holographic entanglement entropy as a function of a scale of the system changes drastically between large noncommutativity and small noncommutativity. The strong subadditivity inequality for the entanglement entropies in the noncommutative Yang-Mills theory is modified in large noncommutativity. The behavior of entropic $c$-function defined by means of the entanglement entropy also changes drastically between large noncommutativity and small noncommutativity. In addition, there is a transition for the entanglement entropy in the noncommutative Yang-Mills theory at finite temperature.

Stability and collisions of moving semi-gap solitons in Bragg cross-gratings

description: We report results of a systematic study of one-dimensional four-wave moving solitons in a recently proposed model of the Bragg cross-grating in planar optical waveguides with the Kerr nonlinearity; the same model applies to a fiber Bragg grating (BG) carrying two polarizations of light. We concentrate on the case when the system's spectrum contains no true bandgap, but only semi-gaps (which are gaps only with respect to one branch of the dispersion relation), that nevertheless support soliton families. Solely zero-velocity solitons were previously studied in this system, while current experiments cannot generate solitons with the velocity smaller than half the maximum group velocity. We find the semi-gaps for the moving solitons in an analytical form, and demonstrated that they are completely filled with (numerically found) solitons. Stability of the moving solitons is identified in direct simulations. The stability region strongly depends on the frustration parameter, which controls the difference of the present system from the usual model for the single BG. A completely new situation is possible, when the velocity interval for stable solitons is limited not only from above, but also from below. Collisions between stable solitons may be both elastic and strongly inelastic. Close to their instability border, the solitons collide elastically only if their velocities c1 and c2 are small; however, collisions between more robust solitons are elastic in a strip around c1=-c2.

description: The paper studies an Allen-Cahn-type equation defined on a time-dependent surface as a model of phase separation with order-disorder transition in a thin material layer. By a formal inner-outer expansion, it is shown that the limiting behavior of the solution is a geodesic mean curvature type flow in reference coordinates. A geometrically unfitted finite element method, known as a trace FEM, is considered for the numerical solution of the equation. The paper provides full stability analysis and convergence analysis that accounts for interpolation errors and an approximate recovery of the geometry.
Democratic mass matrices induced by strong gauge dynamics and large mixing angles for leptons

Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: We consider dynamical realization of the democratic type Yukawa coupling matrices as the Pendelton-Ross infrared fixed points.?Such fixed points of the Yukawa couplings become possible by introducing many Higgs fields, which are made superheavy but one massless mode. Explicitly, we consider a strongly coupled GUT based on $SU(5) \times SU(5)$, where rapid convergence to the infrared fixed point generates sufficiently large mass hierarchy for quarks and leptons. Especially, it is found that the remarkable difference between mixing angles in the quark and lepton sectors may be explained as a simple dynamical consequence. We also discuss a possible scenario leading to the realistic mass spectra and mixing angles for quarks and leptons. In this scheme, the Yukawa couplings not only for top but also for bottom appear close to their quasi-fixed points at low energy and, therefore, $\tan β$ should be large.

description: We consider black hole production at the LHC in a generic scenario with many extra dimensions where the Standard Model fields are confined to a brane. With $\sim 20$ dimensions the hierarchy problem is shown to be naturally solved without the need for large compactification radii. We find that in such a scenario the properties of black holes can be used to determine the number of extra dimensions, $n$. In particular, we demonstrate that measurements of the decay distributions of such black holes at the LHC can determine if $n$ is significantly larger than 6 or 7 with high confidence, and thus can probe one of the critical properties of string theory compactifications.

description: We use modified linear spin-wave theory (MLSWT) to study ground-state entanglement for a length-$L$ line subsystem in $L\times L$ square- and triangular-lattice quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnets with coplanar spiral magnetic order with ordering vector $\mathbf{Q}=(q,q)$ and $N_G=3$ Goldstone modes, except if $q=π$ (collinear order, $N_G=2$). Generalizing earlier MLSWT results for $q=π$ to commensurate spiral order with $s\geq 3$ sublattices ($q=2πr/s$ with $r$ and $s$ coprime), we find analytically for large $L$ a universal and $n$-independent subleading term $(N_G/2)\ln L$ in the Rényi entropy $S_n$, associated with $L^{1/2}$ scaling of $λ_0$ and $λ_{\pm q}$, with $λ_0\neq λ_{\pm q}$ for spiral order; here $\{λ_{k_y}\}$ are the $L$ mode occupation numbers of the entanglement Hamiltonian. The term $(3/2)\ln L$ in $S_n$ agrees with a nonlinear sigma model (NLSM) study of $s=3$ spiral order ($q=2π/3$). These and other properties of $S_n$ and $λ_{k_y}$ are explored numerically for an anisotropic nearest-neighbor triangular-lattice model for which $q$ varies in the spiral phase.

description: Modern and anticipated facilities will deliver data that promises to reveal the innermost workings of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). In order to fulfill that promise, phenomenology and theory must reach a new level, limiting and overcoming model-dependence, so that clean lines can be drawn that connect the data with QCD itself. Progress in that direction, made using continuum methods for the hadron bound-state problem, is sketched herein.
