description: We study the optimal performance of a three-level quantum refrigerator using a trade-off objective function, $Ω$ function, which represents a compromise between the energy benefits and the energy losses of a thermal device. First, we optimize the performance of our refrigerator by employing a two-parameter optimization scheme and show that the first two-terms in the series expansion of the obtained coefficient of performance (COP) match with those of some classical models of refrigerator. Then, in the high-temperature limit, optimizing with respect to one parameter while constraining the other one, we obtain the lower and upper bounds on the COP for both strong as well as weak (intermediate) matter-field coupling conditions. In the strong matter-field coupling regime, the obtained bounds on the COP exactly match with the bounds already known for some models of classical refrigerators. Further for weak matter-field coupling, we derive some new bounds on the the COP of the refrigerator which lie beyond the range covered by bounds obtained for strong matter-field coupling. Finally, in the parameter regime where both cooling power and $Ω$ function can be maximized, we compare the cooling power of the quantum refrigerator at maximum $Ω$ function with the maximum cooling power.

description: For several reasons, fertilizer subsidies are again popular policy tools. First, there is broad agreement that fertilizer is a critical yet still-underused input for improving productivity and food security in Africa. Second, politicians have felt greater urgency to increase domestic food production since the 2007/08 food price crisis. Third, subsidy programs are highly visible, popular with voters, and viewed as politically beneficial. Fourth, donor budget support has made it easier for governments to pay for subsidies.
Photoelasticity of sodium silicate glass from first principles

description: Based on density-functional perturbation theory we have computed the photoelastic tensor of a model of sodium silicate glass of composition (Na$_2$O)$_{0.25}$(SiO$_2$)$_{0.75}$ (NS3). The model (containig 84 atoms) is obtained by quenching from the melt in combined classical and Car-Parrinello molecular dynamics simulations. The calculated photoelastic coefficients are in good agreement with experimental data. In particular, the calculation reproduces quantitatively the decrease of the photoelastic response induced by the insertion of Na, as measured experimentally. The extension to NS3 of a phenomenological model developed in a previous work for pure a-SiO$_2$ indicates that the modulation upon strain of other structural parameters besides the SiOSi angles must be invoked to explain the change in the photoelstic response induced by Na.

description: The development of agricultural commodity exchanges in Africa has become an increasingly popular strategy for addressing some of the ills plaguing African food markets, including poorly developed risk management systems, high transaction costs, and limited price discovery. However, despite substantial support from donors and, in some cases, national governments, commodity exchanges in most African countries are having difficulties getting off the ground. While previous studies (Rashid, Winter-Nelson, and Garcia 2010) highlight the fact that low trade volumes passing through African commodity exchanges limit their development, the question of why exchanges are thinly traded remains poorly understood. Using the Zambian Agricultural Commodity Exchange (ZAMACE) as a case study, this report identifies and explores six mutually reinforcing factors contributing to low trade volumes passing through ZAMACE. By analyzing why trade volumes and participation on ZAMACE have remained both low and erratic, this report seeks to provide policy makers and donors with greater clarity about the specific impediments to be overcome in developing commodity exchanges in the region.

Abstract

Emergent systems arise from the interactions of simple components, forming complex behaviors and structures without centralized control. While emergence is a cornerstone of complexity theory, current models struggle to predict or engineer structured emergence. This paper introduces a chirality-based structured emergence framework, reconciling complexity science with wavelet-driven analysis. The theory suggests that structured resonance, rather than stochastic interactions, governs emergent intelligence in physical, biological, and computational systems. We present a unifying mathematical approach integrating prime distributions, adaptive wavelets, and network topology, offering practical applications for AI, cosmology, and economic modeling.
Direct Distances to Cepheids in the Large Magellanic Cloud: Evidence for a Universal Slope of the Period-Luminosity Relation up to Solar Abundance

description: We have applied the infrared surface brightness (ISB) technique to derive distances to 13 Cepheids in the LMC which span a period range from 3 to 42 days. From the absolute magnitudes of the variables calculated from these distances, we find that the LMC Cepheids define tight period-luminosity relations in the V, I, W, J and K bands which agree exceedingly well with the corresponding Galactic PL relations derived from the same technique, and are significantly steeper than the LMC PL relations in these bands observed by the OGLE-II Project in V, I and W, and by Persson et al. in J and K. We find that the tilt-corrected true distance moduli of the LMC Cepheids show a significant dependence on period, which hints at a systematic error in the ISB technique related to the period of the stars. We identify as the most likely culprit the p-factor which converts the radial into pulsational velocities; our data imply a much steeper period dependence of the p-factor than previously thought, and we derive p=1.58 (+/-0.02) -0.15 (+/-0.05) logP as the best fit from our data, with a zero point tied to the Milky Way open cluster Cepheids. Using this revised p-factor law, the period dependence of the LMC Cepheid distance moduli disappears, and at the same time the Milky Way and LMC PL relations agree among themselves, and with the directly observed LMC PL relations, within the 1 sigma uncertainties. Our main conclusion is that the previous, steeper Galactic PL relations were caused by an erroneous calibration of the p-factor law, and that there is now evidence that the slope of the Cepheid PL relation is independent of metallicity up to solar metallicity, in both optical, and near-infrared bands.

description: Revitalization of state brands is deemed important to several constituencies. Stated preference with choice experiment methods were used to elicit consumer preferences for two locally grown products: spinach, which has had a well-publicized food safety incidence, and carrots, which have had no such incidence in recent history. A full factorial design was used to implement the choice experiment, with each commodity having four identical attributes varying at different levels. Findings reveal that consumers are willing to pay a premium for locally grown spinach marked with the Arizona Grown label over locally grown spinach that was not labeled. This premium was higher than the premium that would be paid for state-branded carrots. This difference highlights consumers’ perceptions of “locally grown” as an indicator of safety in their food supply. Findings have important implications with respect to providing consumer value and point to differentiated positioning strategies for state-branded produce.

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.

description: Regulatory T (Treg) cells play a central role in the maintenance of immune surveillance and tolerance. They can migrate from lymphoid organs to blood and then into tissues and egress from tissues into draining lymph nodes. Specialized endothelial cells of blood and lymphatic vessels are the key gatekeepers for these processes. Treg cells that transmigrate across single cell layers of endothelial cells engage in a bidirectional crosstalk with these cells and regulate vascular permeability by promoting structural modifications of blood and lymphatic endothelial cells. In turn, blood and lymphatic endothelial cells can modulate Treg cell recirculation and residency. Here, we discuss recent insights into the cellular and molecular mechanisms of the crosstalk between Treg cells and endothelial cells and explore potential therapeutic strategies for targeting these interactions in autoimmunity, transplantation and cancer.

description: In this paper, we present a new technique to obtain upper bounds on undirected unicast network information capacity. Using this technique, we characterize an upper bound, called partition bound, on the symmetric rate of information flow in undirected unicast networks and give an algorithm to compute it. Two classes of networks are presented for which the bound is tight and the capacity is achievable by routing thus confirming the undirected unicast conjecture for these classes of networks. We also show that the bound can be loose in general and present an approach to tighten it.

Clinical indicators of the development of a second oral malignancy at a previously treated cancer site : early results of a longitudinal study
Creators: name: Laronde, Denise Marie
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) has a poor 5-year survival rate of just over 50%, largely due to a high rate of second oral malignancies (SOM) including both recurrences and second primary tumours. Current dinicopathological indicators for oral premalignant lesions (OPLs) at high-risk of progressing into cancer are based on primary OPLs. Little is known whether these risk indicators apply to OPLs at previously treated cancer sites, which are particularly difficult to differentiate from reactive changes resulting from aggressive treatment of the tumours. Objective, to discover which clinicopathological indicators, if any, could significantly predict a SOM at the previously treated cancer site at around 1 year (8 - 16 months) after treatment of the cancer. Method. 84 patients with oral cancer (treated with intent to cure) being followed prospectively in the Oral Oncology/Oral Dysplasia Clinic were used in this thesis. Three categories of data were collected: (1) demographic and habit information (age, gender, ethnicity and tobacco habits) (2) primary tumour information (stage, site, histology and treatment of the tumour) and (3) dinicopathological features of post-treatment cancer site during follow up (the presence of an OPL, size, appearance, toluidine blue (TB) staining, histopathology and treatment of the OPLs). Results. 18 patients (21%) have developed a SOM at the treated cancer site (SOM group) within an average of 26 (± 14) months. Follow-up time for 66 patients who did not develop SOM (non-SOM group) was 28 (± 15) months. Demographics, smoking habit and features of the primary oral cancer did not predict SOM. Of the clinicopathological features of post-treatment cancer site during follow up, appearance, histopathology and treatment of OPLs did not predict SOM. There was a trend in increasing size of OPLs in the SOM group (14 ± 16 mm in diameter vs. 6 ± 5 for non-SOM group, P =0.07). However, 2 significant predictors were found. The presence of leukoplakia at the prior cancer site was significantly associated with SOM both at one-year post tumour treatment (72% vs. 15% in non-SOM group, P< 0.001) and ever during follow up (83% vs. 36%, P= 0.001). Uptake of TB stain was also significantly associated with SOM both at one-year post tumour treatment (50% vs. 11% in non-SOM group, P- 0.001) and during the entire follow-up (67% vs. 25%, P= 0.002). Conclusion: The results showed that presence of an OPL at the previous tumour site (regardless of its appearance and size) and TB positivity were significant risk predictors for SOM.
Descendants of Migrants in the Italian Context: The “Social Construction of Illusion”
Creators: name: Girardi, Davide
Publisher: name: Italian Sociological Review
Year: 2025

description: For the past two decades, young people with a migration background or born in Italy to immigrant parents have progressively become an increasingly important component in numerical terms, especially in a country marked by a demographic crisis that is now well established. Nevertheless, this numerical prominence has not yet been translated into adequate social recognition. On the contrary, the repeated stalling of proposals to reform the institution of citizenship suggests that it is possible to use Sayad’s category of “illusion” to speak of the “social construction of illusion”. This paper analyses the characteristics of this process, which sees the children of immigrants who grew up or were born in Italy particularly affected in the following dimensions: a flattening of linguistic requirements within schooling, without the opening to a broader socio-cultural recognition; a reduced social mobility compared with their parents, reinforced by the phenomena of educational channelling; a symbolic invisibility continually reproduced by the lack of reform (by birth) of the institution of citizenship. In this framework, the “voice” dynamics implemented by young descendants of migrants (especially through associations) constitute an important attempt to deconstruct this process. However, there is a need for inclusive policies with a strong symbolic connotation, capable not only of increasing the actual chances of social mobility of young descendants of migrants, but also of getting them out of the illusion of a “quasi-citizenship”. Only in this way will it be possible to prevent the “frustration of second generations”.

description: Economists are rarely brought into the interdisciplinary research until the biophysical scientists have developed their models, made their measurements or completed their research task. The research economist is then brought in to do what amounts to a consulting task – provide some numbers that indicate impacts on the economy and employment. In this paper, I begin by illustrating cases from forestry where this leads to erroneous and costly policy outcomes. However, the main objective of this paper is to examine the role of genetic engineering in forestry and agriculture. In forestry, planting of genetically-modified (GM) tree species is nearly non-existent, with the exception of hybrid poplar that is used to produce pulp or fuel. However, as explored here, there is a role for GM tree varieties, particularly ones that are resistant to such things as the mountain pine beetle which has adversely impacted forests in British Columbia. I also examine the role of GM crops in addressing concerns about future food scarcity. As discussed here, there are various factors that suggest the world might encounter future scarcity. These include on the demand side a growing and wealthier global population, and greater demand for energy crops. On the supply side, there are fewer opportunities to expand farmland at the extensive margin, a decline in the rate of increase in productivity, limits to the amounts of inputs that can be applied at the intensive margin, and the closing of the gap between actual and potential crop yield. GM crops are one way to circumvent the potential shortages. However, there are many obstacles that need to be overcome before farmers globally can take advantage of transgenic research, including most importantly barriers put up by the European Union and various environmental NGOs on the grounds of the precautionary principle. These are discussed in some detail.

description: The 1/r Coulomb potential is calculated for a two dimensional system with periodic boundary conditions. Using polynomial splines in real space and a summation in reciprocal space we obtain numerically optimized potentials which allow us efficient calculations of any periodic (long-ranged) potential up to high precision. We discuss the parameter space of the optimized potential for the periodic Coulomb potential. Compared to the analytic Ewald potential, the optimized potentials can reach higher precisions by up to several orders of magnitude. We explicitly give simple expressions for fast calculations of the periodic Coulomb potential where the summation in reciprocal space is reduced to a few terms.

description: It has been established that the low frequency quasi-localized modes of amorphous solids at zero temperature exhibit universal density of states, depending on the frequencies as $D(ω) \sim ω^4$. It remains an open question whether this universal law extends to finite temperatures. In this Letter we show that well quenched model glasses at temperatures as high as $T_g/3$ possess the same universal density of states. The only condition required is that {\em average} particle positions stabilize before thermal diffusion destroys the cage structure of the material. The universal density of quasi-localized low frequency modes refers then to vibrations around the thermally averaged configuration of the material.

description: Magnetic flux generated and intensified by the solar dynamo emerges into the solar atmosphere, forming active regions (ARs) including sunspots. Existing theories of flux emergence suggest that the magnetic flux can rise buoyantly through the convection zone but is trapped at the photosphere, while its further rising into the atmosphere resorts to the Parker buoyancy instability. To trigger such an instability, the Lorentz force in the photosphere needs to be as large as the gas pressure gradient to hold up an extra amount of mass against gravity. This naturally results in a strongly non-force-free photosphere, which is indeed shown in typical idealized numerical simulations of flux tube buoyancy from below the photosphere into the corona. Here we conduct a statistical study of the extents of normalized Lorentz forces and torques in the emerging photospheric magnetic field with a substantially large sample of SDO/HMI vector magnetograms. We found that the photospheric field has a rather small Lorentz force and torque on average, and thus is very close to a force-free state, which is not consistent with theories as well as idealized simulations of flux emergence. Furthermore, the small extents of forces and torques seem not to be influenced by the emerging AR's size, the emergence rate, or the non-potentiality of the field. This result puts an important constraint on future development of theories and simulations of flux emergence.

description: We present UFTI K-band imaging observations of 222 galaxies that are selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey to have unusually strong Hdelta absorption equivalent widths, W(Hd)>4A. Using GIM2D, the images are fit with two-dimensional surface brightness models consisting of a simple disk and bulge component to derive B/T, the fraction of luminosity in the bulge. We find that the galaxies with weak or absent Halpha or [OII] emission (known as k+a galaxies) are predominantly bulge-dominated (with a mode of B/T~0.6), while galaxies with nebular emission (known as e[a] galaxies) are mostly disk-dominated (B/T~0.1). The morphologies and (r-k) colours of most k+a galaxies are inconsistent with the hypothesis that they result from the truncation of star formation in normal, spiral galaxies. However, their (u-g) and (r-k) colours, as well as their Hdelta line strengths, form a sequence that is well matched by a model in which >5 per cent of the stellar mass has been produced in a recent starburst. The lack of scatter in the dust-sensitive (r-k) colours suggests that the unusual spectra of k+a galaxies are not due to the effects of dust. The e(a) galaxies, on the other hand, have a colour distribution that is distinct from the k+a population, and typical of normal or dusty (tauV~2) spiral galaxies. We conclude that many e(a) galaxies are not progenitors of k+a galaxies, but are a separate phenomenon. Both k+a and e(a) galaxies reside in environments (characterized by the local density of galaxies brighter than Mr=-20) that are typical of normal galaxies and that are inconsistent with overdense regions like rich galaxy clusters.

description: O padrão do consumo de alimentos de um indivíduo é resultado, basicamente, de seu poder aquisitivo. Pessoas com baixo poder aquisitivo tende a mostrar maior sensibilidade à variação de preços, onde uma elevação dos preços dos alimentos pode ocasionar alterações em seus hábitos alimentares. Sendo assim, este trabalho tem por objetivo verificar se alterações na renda dos consumidores e preços dos alimentos afetam os hábitos alimentares dos indivíduos de baixa renda. Nestes termos, para poder retratar bem os gastos das famílias tornam-se imprescindíveis revisões no índice de custo de vida e do bem-estar da população. Para tanto, este trabalho utilizará como ferramenta para o cálculo do índice do custo de vida os índices de Laspeyres, calculado por meio de fatores de ponderação determinados a partir de preços e de quantidades da época básica; índice de Paasche, o qual pondera os preços de insumos em duas épocas, inicial e atual , tomando como pesos às quantidades arbitradas para estes insumos na época atual e; índice de Fischer, que medido pela média geométrica dos índices de Laspeyres e Paasche.----------------------------------------------The pattern of the consumption of an individual's foods is resulted, basically, of his/her purchasing power. People with low purchasing power tend to show larger sensibility to the variation of prices, where an elevation of the prices of the foods can cause alterations in their eating habits. Being like this, this work has for objective to verify alterations in the consumers' income and prices of the foods affect the individuals' of low income eating habits. In these terms, to portray the expenses of the families well they become indispensable revisions in the cost of living index and of the well-being of the population. For so much, work will use as tool for the calculation of the index of the cost of living the indexes of Laspeyres, made calculations through certain consideration factors starting from prices and of amounts of the basic time; index of Paasche, which considers the prices of inputs in two times, initial and current, taking about weights to the amounts arbitrated for these inputs at that time current and; index of Fischer, that measured for the geometric mean of the indexes of Laspeyres and Paasche.

description: Recently it has been pointed out that in the two-baryon $NΔ$ or $ΔΔ$ system the width of the state is greatly diminished due to the relative kinetic energy of the two baryons, since the internal energy of the particles, available for pionic decay, is smaller. For nonzero orbital angular momenta this effect becomes state dependent. Also the real part of the $NΔ$ energy can get contribution from the centrifugal barrier leading to rotational series of diffuse states. Obviously, these states may have an interpretation as isospin one dibaryons. Direct and explicit calculations for this are presented with some details of the coupled state wave functions displayed. With finite expectation values of these repulsive effects it may be possible to define state dependent effective thresholds for $NΔ$ states and these, in turn, can show resonant like behavior.

description: A new scheme is proposed for rotations of a double-donor charge qubit whose logical states are defined by the two lowest energy states of a single electron localized around one or another donor. It is shown that making use of the microwave pulses tuned to the resonance with an auxiliary excited molecular level allows for implementation of various one-qubit operations in very short times. Decoherence effects are analyzed by the example of the P$_2^+$:Si system and shown to be weak enough for experimental realization of this scheme being possible.

description: Single electron sources have been studied as a device to establish an electric current standard for 30 years and recently as an on-demand coherent source for Fermion quantum optics. In order to construct the single electron source on a GaAs/AlGaAs two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG), it is often necessary to fabricate a sub-micron wire by etching. We have established techniques to make the wire made of the fragile 2DEG by combining photolithography and electron beam lithography with one-step photoresist coating, which enables us to etch fine and coarse structures simultaneously. It has been demonstrated that a single electron source fabricated on the narrow wire pumps fixed number of electrons per one cycle with radio frequency. The fabrication technique improves the lithography process with lower risk to damage the 2DEG and is applicable to etching of other materials and dry etching.

Islam as a Reaction to Exclusion: The ReDiscovery of Muslim Identity Among Arab Immigrants’ Descendants in Marseille
Creators: name: La Forgia, Enrico Maria
Publisher: name: Italian Sociological Review
Year: 2025

description: For many “Beurs” - a slang word referring to French citizens who are descendants of Arab immigrants - (Sayad, 1994), Islam is a marker of identity (Ballard, 2018). Since they are often identified through negative stereotypes by French whites, the construction of Muslim identities might be understood as a coping mechanism against racism: Islam can provide a positive identity. In this frame, Sayad’s approach could enlighten the re-discovery of Muslim identity among Arabs’ descendants. In fact, despite “Beurs” are not proper immigrants, they seem to experience a double absence (Sayad, 1999). On one hand, their Frenchness is questioned by white French, on the other, they are physically absent from their grandfathers’ homeland. Hence, for many of them, the myth of the return does not entail a physical movement to the ancestral countries but a re-discovery of Islam as the main feature of their personality and community. The paper analyses some of the patterns of identity retrenchment enacted by “Beurs”. We ask: How does this identity-retrenchment take form? Which actors are involved? How is it connected to the exclusion operated by the French State? The research, conducted in Marseille between 2019-2020, draws on 33 interviews with “Beurs” and key informants (heads of cultural/religious associations) and considers the analysed identity retrenchment as intertwining with the ethnic-based exclusion enacted by the French State - that imposes a hierarchical ethnic classification of the national population (Avallone, 2018) -, and as a reaction to a modern continuum of Sayad’s double absence: Their trajectories are hence more understandable.

description: Este artigo tem por objetivo estimar uma função de demanda por turismo e o valor de uso (recreacional) das praias do litoral do município de Ilhéus – BA, que permitirá fazer uma estimativa dos benefícios do turismo nessa área, considerando duas diferentes estações para o turismo, alta estação e baixa estação. O levantamento dos dados foi feito nos meses de janeiro (alta estação) e novembro (baixa estação), foram aplicados 138 e 110 questionários, respectivamente. A técnica utilizada para a obtenção do valor de uso do turismo foi o Método do Custo de Viagem. O valor do turismo estimado para as praias do litoral de Ilhéus-BA, considerando os turistas amostrados para cada estação foi de R$ 255,13 (alta estação) e R$ 453,58 (baixa estação) por dia por turista. Como a extensão do litoral é de 93 km, pode-se concluir que o valor do turismo de um quilômetro de praia é de R$ 2,74 e R$ 4,87 por turista por dia. Estes valores confirmam a importância econômica das praias de Ilhéus e necessidade de preservação.--------------------------------------------This article has the objective of to esteem a function of demand for tourism and the value of use (recreational) of beaches of the coast of the city of Ilhéus - BA, that will allow to make a estimate of the benefits of the tourism in this area, being considered two different stations for the tourism, high station and low station. The survey of the data was made in the months of January (high station) and November (low station), had been applied 138 and 110 questionnaires, respectively. The technique used for the attainment of the value of use of the tourism was the Method of the Cost of Trip. The value of the tourism esteem for beaches of the coast of Ilhéus-BA, considering the tourists showed for each station was R$ 255,13 (high station) and R$ 453,58 (low station) per day for tourist. As the extension of the coast is 93 km, it can be concluded that the value of the tourism of one kilometer of beach is R$ 2,74 and R$ 4,87 for tourist per day. These values confirm the economic importance of beaches of Ilhéus and necessity of preservation.

description: With the development of the networks and the Internet, the problems of automated deployment on broad scale became increasingly crucial. Software deployment is a complex process covering several activities going from the configuration to the retirement of a software product. During the execution of a deployment process, exceptions can be met which put the site in an incoherent state. To solve them, we propose an approach based on transactional concepts which describes the actions to be undertaken when an exceptional situation is met during the deployment process. The approach guaranties the respect of the site's consistency by preserving part of the work already carried out by the process. This article presents our approach and an experimentation made in an academic deployment system.
