description: A comparison of the most important commodities of crop production points at certain qualitative bonds in the production process. Transition to the market economy leads business managements to slighter production structures. Outstanding positions belong to wheat and also corn, of course, in case of favourable natural and ecological conditions. Sown areas of wheat are increasing but hectare yields have the trend toward decreasing. Corn acreage shows a moderate reduction but the product:on has increased in the last years. Producer's prices of the above-mentioned commodities do not reach the price level of the producers in the EU countries. Comparative advantages expressed by index RCA are much more favourable for corn. The present economicenvironment for the primary agricultural producers has many features of a crisis period but there is a real supposition to overcome it.
Bridging resonant leptogenesis and low-energy CP violation with an RGE-modified seesaw relation

description: We propose a special type-I seesaw scenario in which the Yukawa coupling matrix $Y^{}_ν$ can be fully reconstructed by using the light Majorana neutrino masses $m^{}_i$, the heavy Majorana neutrino masses $M^{}_i$ and the PMNS lepton flavor mixing matrix $U$. It is the RGE-induced correction to the seesaw relation that helps interpret the observed baryon-antibaryon asymmetry of the Universe via flavored resonant thermal leptogenesis with $M^{}_1 \simeq M^{}_2 \ll M^{}_3$. We show that our idea works well in either the $τ$-flavored regime with equilibrium temperature $T \simeq M^{}_1 \in (10^9, 10^{12}]$ GeV or the $(μ+τ)$-flavored regime with $T \simeq M^{}_1 \in (10^5, 10^9]$ GeV, provided the light neutrinos have a normal mass ordering. We find that the same idea is also viable for a {\it minimal} type-I seesaw model with two nearly degenerate heavy Majorana neutrinos.

description: We study the effect of doping in the suppression of tunneling observed in multi-walled nanotubes, incorporating as well the influence of the finite dimensions of the system. A scaling approach allows us to encompass the different values of the critical exponent $α$ measured for the tunneling density of states in carbon nanotubes. We predict that further reduction of $α$ should be observed in multi-walled nanotubes with a sizeable amount of doping. In the case of nanotubes with a very large radius, we find a pronounced crossover between a high-energy regime with persistent quasiparticles and a low-energy regime with the properties of a one-dimensional conductor.

description: The effects of high concentration of point defects in crystalline ZrSiO4 as originated by exposure to radiation, have been simulated using first principles density functional calculations. Structural relaxation and vibrational studies were performed for a catalogue of intrinsic point defects, with different charge states and concentrations. The experimental evidence of a large anisotropic volume swelling in natural and artificially irradiated samples is used to select the subset of defects that give similar lattice swelling for the concentrations studied, namely interstitials of O and Si, and the anti-site Zr(Si), Calculated vibrational spectra for the interstitials show additional evidence for the presence of high concentrations of some of these defects in irradiated zircon.

description: This paper presents the assessment of scale efficiency of a panel of 29 dairy farms representing all growing regions and different farm size groups in Slovakia. A nonparametric approach based on the mathematical programming known as Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) was used. The results of analysis indicate that there is a very low correlation between growing region or farm size on one hand and technical efficiency and scale efficiency on the other one. The analysis was performed over the years 1994-1997.

description: Insight into quasar ages may be obtained from the proximity effect, but so far only in a limited number of bright quasars. Based on ~2600 SDSS quasar spectra at 2.5 <= z <= 3.5, a search for spectral voids between Ly-alpha forest lines finds proximity zones over a wide range of radial distances. The majority of zone sizes are less than 5 Mpc, with their numbers decreasing exponentialy towards larger distances. After normalization by luminosities, the zone sizes are distributed an e-folding scale of 0.64 as compared with the anticipated values. A group of quasars are selected for their large proximity zones of >~ 10 Mpc. Their composite spectrum displays strong narrow cores and large equivalent widths in Ly-alpha and other major UV emission lines. If the proximity zones along lines of sight are indicative of quasar ages, these features may be the signatures of old quasars. Another group of quasars are selected as they show no proximity zone and exhibit intrinsic absorption lines at z_{ab} > z_{em}. They are likely young quasars and exhibit weaker narrow emission-line components. The significant difference of spectral features between the two groups may reflect an evolution pattern over quasars' lifetimes.

description: This white paper, drawing on research from the PROCEDIN consortium, aims to facilitate the adoption of procurement of innovation (POI) across European cities. Funded by the European Commission, PROCEDIN strategically deploys resources to accelerate POI adoption. The paper emphasizes how innovation through public procurement is achievable, with or without specific European procedures for innovation. Insights from interviews with 15 public procurement leaders highlight barriers, enablers, and strategies for leading POI projects. Integrated with the Innovation Procurement Task Force, PROCEDIN targets support for innovative procurement in cities, focusing on circular economy and green mobility. The paper is divided into five parts, covering POI background, city journeys, starting points for success, overcoming barriers, and future directions. Recommendations include emphasizing innovation as a means to an end, exploring diverse POI routes, promoting collaboration, starting small, and actively seeking opportunities. Overall, the white paper aims to support newcomers and procurement leaders in scaling up and embedding POI practices while addressing pressing challenges like energy transition and sustainability.

description: Reforms in transition countries have caused important adjustments in agricultural employment. The adjustments differ strongly between countries. For example, in Hungary and Estonia labour use in agriculture has declined dramatically, in Poland and Slovenia it has decreased to a lesser extent and in Romania and Russia agricultural employment increased during transition. This paper argues that the differences in labour adjustment during transition are due to a combination of variations in initial conditions and differences in reform policies. The extent of reform-induced price and wage adjustments affected labour use in agriculture. Surplus labour outflow from agriculture is furtherstimulated by liberalisation of factor markets and by the privatisation of farm assets, improving incentives and removing constraints for optimal factor allocation and structural adjustments. The shift to individual farms has reduced the outflow of labour from agriculture by improving farm governance and labour efficiency.

description: We solve the Kadanoff-Baym equations for nonequilibrium initial configurations of the $ϕ^4$-theory in 2+1 dimensions and compare to explicit solutions of generalized transport equations for the same theory. The latter transport equations are derived from the Kadanoff-Baym equation in a first order gradient expansion in phase space and explicitly retain the off-shell dynamics as inherent in the time-dependent spectral functions. The solutions of these equations compare very well with the exact solutions of the full Kadanoff-Baym equations with respect to the occupation numbers of the individual modes, the spectral evolution as well as the chemical equilibration process. Furthermore, the proper equilibrium off-shell distribution is reached for large times contrary to the quasiparticle Boltzmann limit. We additionally present a direct comparison of the solution of the generalized transport equations in the Kadanoff-Baym and Botermans-Malfliet form; both solutions are found to agree very well with each other.

description: THz technologies are a powerful tool for label-free detection of biomolecules. However, significant reduction of the lower detection limit is required to apply THz-sensors in biomedical diagnosis. This paper reports an ultrasensitive THz-biosensor based on asymmetric double split ring resonators (aDSRR) for the direct label- and PCR-free detection of DNA at physiologically relevant concentrations. We introduce selective functionalization and localized electric field concentration to enhance aDSRR sensitivity and specificity. The sensor characteristics are demonstrated using the human tumor marker MIA in cDNA samples produced from total RNA without PCR-amplification. Measurements of DNA samples with concentrations as low as $1.55\,\times\,10^{-12}\,$mol/l are presented.
The size of our causal Universe

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: General Physics (physics.gen-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A Universe with finite age also has a finite causal scale. Larger scales can not affect our local measurements or modeling, but far away locations could have different cosmological parameters. The size of our causal Universe depends on the details of inflation and is usually assumed to be larger than our observable Universe today. To account for causality, we propose a new boundary condition, that can be fulfill by fixing the cosmological constant (a free geometric parameter of gravity). This forces a cancellation of vacuum energy with the cosmological constant. As a consequence, the measured cosmic acceleration can not be explained by a simple cosmological constant or constant vacuum energy. We need some additional odd properties such as the existence of evolving dark energy (DE) with energy-density fine tuned to be twice that of dark matter today. We show here that we can instead explain cosmic acceleration without DE (or modified gravity) assuming that the causal scale is smaller than the observable Universe today. Such scale corresponds to half the sky at z=1 and 60 degrees at z=1100, which is consistent with the anomalous lack of correlations observed in the CMB. Late time cosmic acceleration could then be interpreted as the smoking gun of primordial Inflation.

description: We consider the existence in arbitrary finite dimensions d of a POVM comprised of d^2 rank-one operators all of whose operator inner products are equal. Such a set is called a ``symmetric, informationally complete'' POVM (SIC-POVM) and is equivalent to a set of d^2 equiangular lines in C^d. SIC-POVMs are relevant for quantum state tomography, quantum cryptography, and foundational issues in quantum mechanics. We construct SIC-POVMs in dimensions two, three, and four. We further conjecture that a particular kind of group-covariant SIC-POVM exists in arbitrary dimensions, providing numerical results up to dimension 45 to bolster this claim.

description: A political economy model is developed to evaluate preferences of politicians of EU member states for agricultural protection within the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). The model draws on Down's economic theory of democracy as particularly furtered by Swinnen and de Goner. Inter-country transfer of income modify optimal policies of individual member states. Net contributors to the CAP prefer reduction of common intervention prices relative to 'what they would have opted for without inter-country transfers. Politicians of net contributors to the CAP prefer higher level of agricultural protection inside the EU than they would have prefered outside the CAP. The accession of Central and East European countries into the EU will increase politically optimal level of protection of politicians of Central and East European countries while decrease that of politicians of current EU members.

description: The Box-Jenkins methodology is very useful for building reliable models in order to forecast the development of economic indicators. Their advantage is that they are applicable especially when the data highly fluctuate or there are seasonal fluctuations. The conventional methods such analytical equalisation of the time series or regression and correlation analyses do not give us reliable results. The reason is that these models are not able to present the fluctuations of the data, which are influenced by present turbulent market environment.

description: Topological materials are expected to show distinct transport signatures due to their unique band-inversion character and band-crossing points. However, the intentional modulation of such topological responses by experimentally feasible means is less explored. Here, an unusual elevation of anomalous Hall effect (AHE) is obtained in electron(Ni)-doped magnetic Weyl semimetal Co3-xNixSn2S2, showing peak values of anomalous Hall-conductivity, Hall-angle and Hall-factor at a relatively low doping level of x = 0.11. The separation of intrinsic and extrinsic contributions to total AHE using TYJ scaling model indicates that such significant enhancement is dominated by the intrinsic mechanism of electronic Berry curvature. Theoretical calculations reveal that compared with the Fermi-level shifting from electron filling, a usually overlooked effect of doping, i.e., local disorder, imposes a striking effect on broadening the bands and narrowing the inverted gap, and thus results in an elevation of the integrated Berry curvature. Our results not only realize the enhancement of AHE in a magnetic Weyl semimetal, but also provide a practical design principle to modulate the bands and transport properties in topological materials, by exploiting the disorder effect of doping.

description: We present surface brightness fluctuations (SBFs) in the near--IR for 191 Magellanic star clusters available in the Second Incremental and All Sky Data releases of the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS), and compare them with SBFs of Fornax Cluster galaxies and with predictions from stellar population models. Our goals are twofold. First, to provide an empirical calibration of near--IR SBFs, given that existing stellar population synthesis models are particularly discrepant in the near--IR. Second, whereas most previous SBF studies have focused on old, metal rich populations, this is the first application to a system with such a wide range of ages (~ 10^6 to more than 10^10 yr, i.e., 4 orders of magnitude), at the same time that the clusters have a very narrow range of metallicities (Z ~ 0.0006 -- 0.01, ie., 1 order of magnitude only). Since stellar population synthesis models predict a more complex sensitivity of SBFs to metallicity and age in the near--IR than in the optical, this analysis offers a unique way of disentangling the effects of age and metallicity. We find a satisfactory agreement between models and data. We also confirm that near--IR fluctuations and fluctuation colors are mostly driven by age in the Magellanic cluster populations, and that in this respect they constitute a sequence in which the Fornax Cluster galaxies fit adequately. Moreover, fluctuation colors display a tendency to redden with age that can be fit by a straight line. Finally, we use for the first time a Poissonian approach to establish the error bars of the fluctuation measurements, instead of the customary Monte Carlo simulations.

description: Machine learning provides a novel avenue for the study of experimental realizations of many-body systems, and has recently been proven successful in analyzing properties of experimental data of ultracold quantum gases. We here show that deep learning succeeds in the more challenging task of modelling such an experimental data distribution. Our generative model (RUGAN) is able to produce snapshots of a doped two-dimensional Fermi-Hubbard model that are indistinguishable from previously reported experimental realizations. Importantly, it is capable of accurately generating snapshots at conditions for which it did not observe any experimental data, such as at higher doping values. On top of that, our generative model extracts relevant patterns from small-scale examples and can use these to construct new configurations at a larger size that serve as a precursor to observations at scales that are currently experimentally inaccessible. The snapshots created by our model---which come at effectively no cost---are extremely useful as they can be employed to quantitatively test new theoretical developments under conditions that have not been explored experimentally, parameterize phenomenological models, or train other, more data-intensive, machine learning methods. We provide predictions for experimental observables at unobserved conditions and benchmark these against modern theoretical frameworks. The deep learning method we develop here is broadly applicable and can be used for the efficient large-scale simulation of equilibrium and nonequilibrium physical systems.

description: Soft commodities, often referred to as tropics, constitute a significant element of international trade and are also important to the Polish economy. Moreover, Polish investors may invest in foreign markets of soft commodities through commodity-linked ETFs, offered by some brokerage houses. Obviously, each investment decision should be preceded by an analysis of asset performance. This paper provides results of statistical analysis of soft commodities returns over the period January 2007 to December 2016. They reveal the existence of weak positive correlation between the returns, non-normal distributions, negative trends, and serial autocorrelation.

Delocalizing transition of multidimensional solitons in Bose-Einstein condensates

description: Critical behavior of solitonic waveforms of Bose-Einstein condensates in optical lattices (OL) has been studied in the framework of continuous mean-field equation. In 2D and 3D OLs bright matter-wave solitons undergo abrupt delocalization as the strength of the OL is decreased below some critical value. Similar delocalizing transition happens when the coefficient of nonlinearity crosses the critical value. Contrarily, bright solitons in 1D OLs retain their integrity over the whole range of parameter variations. The interpretation of the phenomenon in terms of quantum bound states in the effective potential is proposed.

description: We believe that we have reached in high energy physics a stage today where we cannot further ignore the possibility of a possible topology embedded on elementary single isolated particles which could explain and could be the missing information we desperately needed in order to take the next step for new physics beyond the SM at the very high energies theoretical research and phenomenology and therefore progress knowledge in the field. The SM model does not give answer of what an isolated elementary particle mechanics would be? Furthermore, there is no reason to believe yet by any theory and experiment so far that the probabilistic nature of a collection of quantum particles interaction (i.e. measurement) are an inherent property from the single isolated particle case and also intrinsic to the single quantum elementary isolated particles.Therefore, elementary particles can have a topology and a dynamic energy flow manifold which are by definition deterministic concepts and structures. We outline and justify herein in this proposal a potential new field of elementary particles, very high energies research.

Acentroptera rubronotata

description: Acentroptera rubronotata Pic incertae sedis
 Acentroptera rubronotata Pic 1932: 15 (type: Brazil, Tapera, depository unknown). Carvalho and Carvalho 1939: 54 (faunal list); Papp 1953: 51 (catalog); Uhmann 1957: 66 (catalog), 1964a: 412 (catalog); Descarpentries and Villiers 1959: 144 (types).
 Description. Translation of Pic (1932): Somewhat elongate, shining, testaceous; elytra with 3 maculae anteriorly and posteriorly; elytra red-green and marked with black; pronotum red and green, trivittate, strongly and densely punctuate. Total length 8-10 mm.
 Very similar to A. maculata but differs by the reduced red maculae and dark purple marking on the elytra and with the costae less produced.
 Discussion. The type of this species could not be located in the M. Pic collection in the MNHN (A. Mantilleri, per. com.). I have been unable to locate determined specimens of this species or any specimens fitting this description and the original description is too superficial to determine the placement of the species. Until the type is located, the species should be treated as incertae sedis (ICZN 1999, Art. 67.2.5).
 Host plant. Unknown.
 Distribution. Brazil (Pará).

description: The study attempts to investigate the eco-innovative activity of Ukrainian enterprises according to their size (small, medium, and large) with special focus on SMEs as the predominant group of enterprises, which ensure the innovative development of the whole national economy, and is central to the efforts to achieve environmental sustainability and green growth. The empirical analysis is based on a questionnaire survey of 254 Ukrainian enterprises of different sizes; the survey presents data on their current state and foreign trade activity, opportunities and barriers for the implementation of technological innovations and eco-innovations. The relationships between the export and ecoinnovative activities is also explored. The analysis showed that SMEs are less eco-innovative in comparison with large enterprises, have fewer numbers of exporters than large firms, but exporters are more eco-innovative than non-exporters. Also, the size of the Eco-innovation Index for Ukraine was calculated. Based on the obtained results, Ukraine is an economy with a low level of ecoinnovativeness, so, the study is extremely important.
