description: We demonstrate phase super-resolution in the absence of entangled states. The key insight is to use the inherent time-reversal symmetry of quantum mechanics: our theory shows that it is possible to \emph{measure}, as opposed to prepare, entangled states. Our approach is robust, requiring only photons that exhibit classical interference: we experimentally demonstrate high-visibility phase super-resolution with three, four, and six photons using a standard laser and photon counters. Our six-photon experiment demonstrates the best phase super-resolution yet reported with high visibility and resolution.

description: Existing research on tournament-style contests suggests that mechanisms to sort contestants by ability level are unnecessary in the case of linear relative-performance contracts. This paper suggests that this result stems from uniform treatment of workers' marginal returns from effort, marginal disutilities of effort, and reservation wages. Here, we investigate relative-performance contracts with a model that allows these three factors to vary by growers' unobservable ability. Given this framework, we find that it is possible for processors to improve expected profits and total expected welfare by replacing a single contract offering meant to pool all growers with an offering of two contracts meant to separate growers by ability. Under some circumstances, a 'cream-skimming' contract offering designed to attract only workers above a minimum ability level can also improve expected profits.

description: We investigate quantum electrodynamic effects under the influence of an external, time-dependent electromagnetic field, which mediates dynamic modifications of the radiative corrections. Specifically, we consider the quantum electrodynamic vacuum-polarization tensor under the influence of two external background fields: a strong laser field and a nuclear Coulomb field. We calculate the charge and current densities induced by a nuclear Coulomb field in the presence of a laser field. We find the corresponding induced scalar and vector potentials. The induced potential, in first-order perturbation theory, leads to a correction to atomic energy levels. The external laser field breaks the rotational symmetry of the system. Consequently, the induced charge density is not spherically symmetric, and the energy correction therefore leads to a "polarized Lamb shift." In particular, the laser generates an additional potential with a quadrupole moment. The corresponding laser-dressed vacuum-polarization potential behaves like 1/r**3 at large distances, unlike the Uehling potential that vanishes exponentially for large r. Our investigation might be useful for other situations where quantum field theoretic phenomena are subjected to external fields of a rather involved structure.

description: MIND is a hybrid model incorporating several energy related sectors in an endogenous growth model of the world economy. This model structure allows a better understanding of the linkages between the energy sectors and the macro-economic environment. We perform a sensitivity analysis and parameter studies to improve the understanding of the economic mechanisms underlying opportunity costs and the optimal mix of mitigation options. Parameters representing technological change that permeates the entire economy have a strong impact on both the opportunity costs of climate protection and on the optimal mitigation strategies, e.g. parameters in the macro-economic environment and in the extraction sector. Sector-specific energy technology parameters change the portfolio of mitigation options but have only modest effects on opportunity costs, e.g. learning rate of the renewable energy technologies. We conclude that feedback loops between the macro-economy and the energy sectors are crucial for the determination of opportunity costs and mitigation strategies.
Quantum Phase Transitions in s=1/2 Ising Chain in a Regularly Alternating Transverse Field

description: We consider the ground-state properties of the s=1/2 Ising chain in a transverse field which varies regularly along the chain having a period of alternation 2. Such a model, similarly to its uniform counterpart, exhibits quantum phase transitions. However, the number and the position of the quantum phase transition points depend on the strength of transverse field modulation. The behaviour in the vicinity of the critical field in most cases remains the same as for the uniform chain (i.e. belongs to the square-lattice Ising model universality class). However, a new critical behaviour may also arise. We report the results for critical exponents obtained partially analytically and partially numerically for very long chains consisting of a few thousand sites.

description: This paper analyzes the potential welfare gains of introducing a technology transfer from Annex I to non-Annex I in order to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. Our analysis is based on a numerical general equilibrium model for a world economy comprising two regions, North (Annex I) and South (non-Annex I). As our model allows for labor mobility between the formal and informal sectors in the South, we are also able to capture additional aspects of how the transfer influences the Southern economy. In a cooperative equilibrium, a technology transfer from the North to the South is clearly desirable from the perspective of a 'global social planner', since the welfare gain for the South outweighs the welfare loss for the North. However, if the regions do not cooperate, then the incentives to introduce the technology transfer appear to be relatively weak from the perspective of the North; at least if we allow for Southern abatement in the pre-transfer Nash equilibrium. Finally, by adding the emission reductions associated with the Kyoto agreement to an otherwise uncontrolled market economy, the technology transfer leads to higher welfare in both regions.

description: We construct a sequence of states called m-monotone product states which give a discrete interpolation between the monotone product of states of Muraki and the free product of states of Avitzour and Voiculescu in free probability. We derive the associated basic limit theorems and develop the combinatorics based on non-crossing ordered partitions with monotone order starting from depth m. The Hilbert space representations of the limit mixed moments in the invariance principle lead to m-monotone Gaussian operators living in m-monotone Fock spaces, which are truncations of the free Fock space over the square-integrable functions on the non-negative real line (m=1 gives the monotone Fock space). A new type of combinatorics of inner blocks leads to explicit formulas for the mixed moments of m-monotone Gaussian operators, which are new even in the case of monotone independent Gaussian operators with arcsine distributions.

description: Using complex Langevin method we probe the possibility of dynamical supersymmetry breaking in supersymmetric quantum mechanics models with complex actions. The models we consider are invariant under the combined operation of parity and time reversal, in addition to supersymmetry. When actions are complex traditional Monte Carlo methods based on importance sampling fail. Models with dynamically broken supersymmetry can exhibit sign problem due to the vanishing of the partition function. Complex Langevin method can successfully evade the sign problem. Our simulations suggest that complex Langevin method can reliably predict the absence or presence of dynamical supersymmetry breaking in these one-dimensional models with complex actions.

Subjects: Environmental Economics and Policy

description: Using an overlapping generation model à la Blanchard (1985) with human capital accumulation, this article demonstrates that the influence of environment on optimal growth in the long-run may be explained by the detrimental effect of pollution on life expectancy. It also shows that, in such a case, greener preferences are growth- and welfare-improving even if the ability of the agents to learn is independent to pollution and utility is additively separable. Finally, it establishes that it is possible to implement a win-win environmental policy.

Marginal Cost Versus Average Cost Pricing with Climatic Shocks in Senegal: Dynamic Computable General Equilibrium Model Applied to Water
Creators: name: Briand, Anne

Publisher: name: Unknown
Year: 2006
Subjects: Resource /Energy Economics and Policy

description: The model simulates on a 20-year horizon, a first phase of increase in the water resource availability taking into account the supply policies by the Senegalese government and a second phase with hydrologic deficits due to demand evolution (demographic growth). The results show that marginal cost water pricing (with a subsidy ensuring the survival of the water production sector) makes it possible in the long term to absorb the shock of the resource shortage, GDP, investment and welfare increase. Unemployment drops and the sectors of rain rice, market gardening and drinking water distribution grow. In contrast, the current policy of average cost pricing of water leads the long-term economy in a recession with an agricultural production decrease, a strong degradation of welfare and a rise of unemployment. This result questions the basic tariff (average cost) on which block water pricing is based in Senegal.

description: Effective field theory techniques provide us important tools to probe for physics beyond the Standard Model in a relatively model-independent way. In this work, we revisit the CP-even dimension-6 purely gluonic operator to investigate the possible constraints on it by studying its effect on top-pair production at the LHC, in particular the high $p_T$ and $m_{t\bar{t}}$ tails of the distribution. Cut-based analysis reveals that the scale of New Physics when this operator alone contributes to the production process is greater than 3.4 TeV at 95% C.L., which is a much stronger bound compared to the bound of 850 GeV obtained from Run-I data using the same channel. This is reinforced by an analysis using Machine Learning techniques. Our study complements similar studies that have focussed on other collider channels to study this operator.

Determinants of Environmental Innovation - New Evidence from German Panel Data Sources

Publisher: name: Unknown
Year: 2006
Subjects: Environmental Economics and Policy

description: In most cases, empirical analyses of environmental innovations based on firm-level data relied on survey data for one point in time. These surveys, especially designed for the analysis of environmental innovations, are useful because they allow for the inclusion of many explanatory variables such as different policy instruments or the influence of stake-holders and pressure groups. On the other hand, it is not possible to address the dynamic character of the environmental innovation process. This paper uses two German panel data bases, the establishment panel of the Institute for Employment Research (IAB) and the Mannheim Innovation Panel (MIP) of the Centre for European Economic Research (ZEW), to explore the determinants of environmental innovations. These data bases were not specifically collected to analyze environmental issues, but they contain questions that allow the identification of environmental innovations. We use discrete choice models for each of the data bases to analyze hypotheses derived from the theoretical (environmental) innovation literature. The econometric estimations show that the improvement of the technological capabilities (knowledge capital) by R&D or further education measures triggers environmental innovations - this result is confirmed by both data bases and both methods to measure environmental innovation. The hypothesis that Innovation breeds innovation is confirmed by the analysis of the MIP data. General and environmental innovative firms in the past are more likely to innovate in the present. Environmental regulation, environmental management tools and general organizational changes and improvements trigger environmental innovation, a result that has also been postulated by the famous Porter-hypothesis. Environmental management tools especially help to detect cost-savings (specifically material and energy savings). Following our econometric results, cost-savings are an important driving force of environmental innovation.

description: Given the current trends in migration processes that are now one of the global challenges for the development of the national and world economic systems, it is relevant to identify the key factors that affect the labor migration processes. The trends in the development of migration processes were analyzed in the context of Ukraine and Poland. They indicate a) an increase in the number of migrant workers; b) significant changes in employment, the period of stay of migrants, their age and gender structure. The authors identify macroeconomic factors that affect the processes of international labor migration. Stepwise Regression method was applied to determine the factors that influence the processes of labor migration from Ukraine to Poland, and then the models were tested for multicollinearity and heteroscedasticity. As a result, we obtained 29 economic models. The modeling outcomes show that the following macroeconomic factors of the Ukrainian and Polish economies have the most significant impact on labor migration processes: average salary (euro for Poland), average salary (euro for Ukraine), GDP per capita (current US$ for Ukraine), inflation (annual % for Poland), inflation (annual % for Ukraine), official exchange rate (LCU per euro for Poland), official exchange rate (LCU per euro for Ukraine), unemployment (% of total labor force for Poland), unemployment (% of total labor force for Ukraine). The analysis of the obtained models determined that the level of labor migration from Ukraine to Poland is by 82% affected by Ukrainian macroeconomic indicators and by 18% by Polish ones.
Appearance-based concerns and psychosocial functioning following complex plastic surgery for female melanoma survivors
Creators: name: Yates, Sarah
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2024

description: This thesis aimed to qualitatively explore the experiences of living with
 an altered appearance related to the skin, and compromises a systematic
 literature review, an empirical research paper, and critical appraisal of
 the research undertaken.

 The literature review synthesised qualitative research exploring the
 psychological experiences and appearance concerns of people with
 psoriasis. Utilising thematic synthesis, the results of 21 papers were
 synthesised to generate three themes: ‘Constructing and navigating the
 psoriasis-identity’, ‘Appearance stigmatisation’ and ‘Acceptance and
 coping with an altered appearance’. Although there are individual
 differences in adjustment and coping, findings highlight the impact of
 psoriasis upon identity, psychological, and social functioning. Clinical
 implications and suggestions for future research are discussed.

 The research paper explored the psychosocial functioning and
 appearance-based concerns of female melanoma survivors, who have undergone
 reconstructive plastic surgery as part of their treatment. Interpretative
 phenomenological analysis was utilised to analyse data from seven
 interviews. Three themes were identified: ‘Constructing the
 melanomaidentity’, ‘Relating to others: experiencing dismissal and
 self-stigmatisation’ and ‘Grieving the life you had: psychosocial
 adjustment’. Findings highlighted the impact of appearance changes upon
 participants’ sense of self and identity, in the context of beauty norms
 and societal narratives related to skin cancer. These findings are
 considered in relation to existing literature, and the implications for
 clinical practice are discussed.

 The critical appraisal provides a summary of the research, along with
 reflections on methodological and ethical considerations. Limitations and
 clinical implications are also highlighted. The importance of reflexivity
 is considered, and personal reflections of the research process, such as
 the impact of the lead researchers own lived experience, are discussed.
Determining stand ages in a hyperspectral image using artificial neural networks
Creators: name: Bortolot, Zachary Jared
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: An Airborne Visible / Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (AVIRIS) image was analysed to assess the feasibility of using feed-forward artificial neural networks to determine stand ages in the Sooke watershed located in southern Vancouver Island. Training data were systematically collected at the pixel level from photo interpreted forest cover data of the site. Artificial neural networks having a variety of architectures were trained using these data in conjunction with several different learning parameters. Once the neural networks were trained, all pixels in the area of interest were analysed and assigned an age. These pixel-level ages were used to extrapolate the ages of the forest cover polygons, and the ages were compared to the photointerpreted polygon ages. Results showed that a good correspondence existed, especially for larger polygons. However, accurate results could be obtained using a subset of the bands and data simulating Landsat TM bands 2 through 5 and 7. The use of topographic and view angle data in addition to the spectral data produced equivalent or slightly poorer results than the spectral data on its own. The use of a first difference image did not improve the prediction accuracy. The results of this study suggest that the technique used may be a reasonable means of determining the ages of forest stands, and may be a good choice when ground data on stand ages are available but collecting and interpreting aerial photographs is prohibitively expensive. This will especially be the case when data from satellite-mounted hyperspectral sensors become available in late 2000.

A component of differential conductance that is antisymmetric in both applied source-drain bias V and magnetic field B, absent in linear transport, is found to exhibit mesoscopic fluctuations around a zero average. Typical values of this component allow a measurement of the electron interaction strength.

description: In this paper the global agricultural land use model KLUM is coupled to an extended version of the computable general equilibrium model (CGE) GTAP in order to consistently assess the integrated impacts of climate change on global cropland allocation and its implication for economic development. The methodology is innovative as it introduces dynamic economic land-use decisions based also on the biophysical aspects of land into a state-of-the-art CGE; it further allows the projection of resulting changes in cropland patterns on a spatially more explicit level. A convergence test and illustrative future simulations underpin the robustness and potentials of the coupled system. Reference simulations with the uncoupled models emphasize the impact and relevance of the coupling; the results of coupled and uncoupled simulations can differ by several hundred percent.

description: The results of extensive microscopic Relativistic Mean Field (RMF) calculations for the nuclei appearing in the alpha - decay chains of recently discovered superheavy elements with Z = 109 to 118 are presented and discussed. The calculated ground state properties like total binding energies, Q values, deformations, radii and densities closely agree with the corresponding experimental data, where available. The double folding (t-rho-rho) approximation is used to calculate the interaction potential between the daughter and the alpha, using RMF densities along with the density dependent nucleon - nucleon interaction (M3Y). This in turn, is employed within the WKB approximation to estimate the half lives without any additional parameter for alpha - decay. The half lives are highly sensitive to the Q values used and qualitatively agree with the corresponding experimental values. The use of experimental Q values in the WKB approximation improves the agreement with the experiment, indicating that the resulting interaction potential is reliable and can be used with confidence as the real part of the optical potential in other scattering and reaction processes.

description: For a rigid model satellite, Chandrasekhar's dynamical friction formula describes the orbital evolution quite accurately, when the Coulomb logarithm is chosen appropriately. However, it is not known if the orbital evolution of a real satellite with the internal degree of freedom can be described by the dynamical friction formula. We performed N-body simulation of the orbital evolution of a self-consistent satellite galaxy within a self-consistent parent galaxy. We found that the orbital decay of the simulated satellite is significantly faster than the estimate from the dynamical friction formula. The main cause of this discrepancy is that the stars stripped out of the satellite are still close to the satellite, and increase the drag force on the satellite through two mechanisms. One is the direct drag force from particles in the trailing tidal arm, a non-axisymmetric force that slows the satellite down. The other is the indirect effect that is caused by the particles remaining close to the satellite after escape. The force from them enhances the wake caused in the parent galaxy by dynamical friction, and this larger wake in turn slows the satellite down more than expected from the contribution of its bound mass. We found these two have comparable effects, and the combined effect can be as large as 20% of the total drag force on the satellite.

description: This paper shows in an empirical context that substantial cost reductions can be achieved in the implementation of Dutch national climate policy by (i) targeting the policy at the stock of greenhouse gases, thus allowing polluters flexibility in their timing of emission reductions; and (ii) integrating climate policy with other policies, thereby optimising the restructuring of the economy needed to achieve environmental policy targets. A dynamic applied general equilibrium model with bottom-up information on abatement techniques is used to show that the optimal timing of GHG emission reductions tends to follow the timing for the other environmental themes with an additional emphasis on emission reductions in the later periods. The optimal mix of technical measures and economic restructuring as source of emission reductions is affected by the strictness of environmental policy targets for all themes and hence can only be derived from an integrated analysis of these policies.
The Production and Consumption Accounting Principles as a Guideline for Designing Environmental Tax Policy

description: This paper evaluates two alternative tax policies aimed at reducing atmospheric pollutant emissions. One based upon an environmental tax that burdens directly firms' emissions, and the other one that burdens both directly and indirectly household consumption's emissions. Applying input-output approach, we reallocate the emissions generated in the economy according to the responsibility definition, i.e. the production or the consumption accounting principle. Afterwards, we analyse the effects on the products' prices of implementing an ad-quantum environmental tax based on the Producer Pays Principle (PPP) and/or on the User Pays Principle (UPP). The results obtained, show that both PPP and UPP environmental tax have the same effect on the final products' prices. However, the price of the intermediate products is only affected by the PPP environmental tax, whereas the UPP environmental tax keeps the prices unchanged.

description: In modern society, education is perceived as a process of personality formation. Psychologists and teachers are aware of the urgent need to apply an individual approach to the student as one of the principles of organization of educational work. The main goal of primary general education in the state education standard is the development of a comprehensively developed personality. The search for new forms and methods of teaching is a necessary condition for successful modern education aimed at the formation of a multifaceted personality capable of living and working in a constantly changing world. Therefore, in the methodology of teaching foreign languages, special attention is paid to the search for active methods and forms of teaching, and with their help, a high level of educational activity of students is achieved.

description: This paper is the concluding chapter of Rights, Rents and Fairness: Allocation in the European Emissions Trading Scheme, edited by the co-authors and forthcoming from Cambridge University Press. The main objective of this paper is to distill the lessons and general principles to be learnt from the allocation of allowances in the European Union Emission Trading Scheme (EU ETS), i.e. in the world's first experience with allocating carbon allowances to sub-national entities. We discuss the lessons that emerge from this experience and make some comments on what seem to be more general principles informing the allocation process and on what are the global implications of the EU ETS. As has become obvious during the first allocation phase, the diversity of experience among the Member States is considerable, so that it must be understood that these lessons and unifying themes are drawn from the experience of most of the Member States, not necessarily from all. Lessons and unifying observations are grouped in three categories: those concerning the conditions encountered, the processes employed, and the actual choices.
Economic and Poverty Impacts of a Voluntary Carbon Reduction for a Small Liberalized Developing Economy: The Case of the Philippines

description: This paper analyzes the economic and poverty effects of a voluntary carbon emission reduction for a small liberalized economy -the Philippines. The simulation results indicate that tariff reductions undertaken by the Philippine government between 1994 and 2005 reduced the cost of fossil fuels thereby resulting in an increase in carbon emissions. The economic cost of reducing carbon emissions by imposing a carbon tax appears minimal as the reduction in consumer prices due to tariff reductions outweigh the increase in production cost from the imposition of a carbon tax. Overall results suggest that maintaining carbon emissions relative to 1994 levels appears to be a sensible alternative for the country.

Emission spectra and quantum efficiency of single-photon sources in the cavity-QED strong-coupling regime

description: We derive analytical formulas for the forward emission and side emission spectra of cavity-modified single-photon sources, as well as the corresponding normal-mode oscillations in the cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) strong-coupling regime. We investigate the effects of pure dephasing, treated in the phase-diffusion model based on a Wiener-Levy process, on the emission spectra and normal-mode oscillations. We also extend our previous calculation of quantum efficiency to include the pure dephasing process. All results are obtained in the Weisskopf-Wigner approximation for an impulse-excited emitter. We find that the spectra are broadened, the depths of the normal-mode oscillations are reduced and the quantum efficiency is decreased in the presence of pure dephasing.
