description: Past acreage response studies have failed to recognize that government control policies have typically introduced taxes and subsidies which are discontinuous over acreage planted. The nature of this discontinuity is reviewed and its impact on profit maximizing choice analyzed. A general model suitable for econometric estimation which would accommodate this discontinuity in policy is introduced. The effect of the discontinuity is to preclude ordinary least squares estimation. An extension of Tobin's maximum likelihood method is introduced to resolve the estimation complications.

description: Child undernutrition remains a widespread problem in many developing countries. The empowerment of women, and mothers in particular, was shown to improve child nutrition in various geographical contexts. One important avenue to empower women is fostering female employment. However, maternal employment can influence child nutrition through different mechanisms; it is not clear under what conditions the overall effect will be positive. We develop a theoretical model to show that maternal employment can affect child nutrition through changes in (i) income, (ii) intra-household bargaining power, and (iii) time available for childcare. The links are empirically analyzed using panel data from rural Tanzania and regression models with maternal fixed effects. Maternal employment has non-linear effects on child height-for-age z-scores (HAZ), the standard indicator of longterm child nutritional status. Off-farm employment reduces child HAZ at low levels of labor supply. The effect turns positive at higher levels of off-farm labor supply and negative again at very high levels. The child nutrition effects of maternal time allocation to agricultural work on the own family farm are weaker than those of off-farm employment and statistically insignificant. These findings can help to better design development interventions that foster synergies and avoid potential tradeoffs between female empowerment and child nutrition goals.

description: Context. HD72946 is a bright and nearby solar-type star hosting a low-mass companion at long period (P~16 yr) detected with the radial velocities (RV) method. The companion has a minimum mass of 60.4+/-2.2 MJ and might be a brown dwarf. Its expected semi-major axis of ~243 mas makes it a suitable target for further characterization with high-contrast imaging, in particular to measure its inclination, mass, and spectrum and thus definitely establish its substellar nature. Aims. We aim to further characterize the orbit, atmosphere, and physical nature of HD72946B. Methods. We present high-contrast imaging data in the near-infrared with the Spectro-Polarimetric High-contrast Exoplanet REsearch (SPHERE) instrument. We also use proper motion measurements of the star from Hipparcos and Gaia. Results. The SPHERE data reveal a point source with a contrast of ~9 mag at a projected separation of ~235 mas. No other point sources are detected in the field of view. By jointly fitting the RV, imaging, and proper motion data, we constrain all the orbital parameters of HD72946B and assess a dynamical mass of 72.4+/-1.6 MJ and a semi-major axis of 6.45$^{+0.08}_{-0.07}$ au. Empirical comparison of its IFS spectrum to template dwarfs indicates a spectral type of L5.0+/-1.5. The J-H3 color is close to the expectations of the DUSTY models and suggests a cloudy atmosphere. Comparison with atmospheric models of the spectrophotometry suggests an effective temperature of ~1700 K. The bolometric luminosity (log(L/LS)=-4.11+/-0.10 dex) and dynamical mass of HD72946B are more compatible with evolutionary models for an age range of ~0.9-3 Gyr. The formation mechanism of the companion is currently unclear as it appears slightly away from the bulk of model predictions. HD72946B is currently the closest benchmark brown dwarf companion to a solar-type star with imaging, RV, and proper motion measurements.

description: We propose a non-invasive and cost-effective method to automatically detect dementia by utilizing solely speech audio data. We extract paralinguistic features for a short speech segment and use Gated Convolutional Neural Networks (GCNN) to classify it into dementia or healthy. We evaluate our method on the Pitt Corpus and on our own dataset, the PROMPT Database. Our method yields the accuracy of 73.1% on the Pitt Corpus using an average of 114 seconds of speech data. In the PROMPT Database, our method yields the accuracy of 74.7% using 4 seconds of speech data and it improves to 80.8% when we use all the patient's speech data. Furthermore, we evaluate our method on a three-class classification problem in which we included the Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) class and achieved the accuracy of 60.6% with 40 seconds of speech data.

CP asymmetry in $B \to ϕK_S$ in a general two-Higgs-doublet model with fourth-generation quarks

description: We discuss the time-dependent CP asymmetry of decay $B \to ϕK_S$ in an extension of the Standard Model with both two Higgs doublets and additional fourth-generation quarks. We show that although the Standard Model with two-Higgs-doublet and the Standard model with fourth generation quarks alone are not likely to largely change the effective $\sin 2 β$ from the decay of $B \to ϕK_S $, the model with both additional Higgs doublet and fourth-generation quarks can easily account for the possible large negative value of $\sin 2 β$ without conflicting with other experimental constraints. In this model, additional large CP violating effects may arise from the flavor changing Yukawa interactions between neutral Higgs bosons and the heavy fourth generation down type quark, which can modify the QCD penguin contributions. With the constraints obtained from $b \to s \bar{s} s$ processes such as $B \to X_s γ$ and $Δm_{B_s^0}$, this model can lead to the effective $\sin 2 β$ to be as large as $- 0.4$ in the CP asymmetry of $B \to ϕK_S$.

Resumming the color-octet contribution to e+ e- -> J/psi + X

description: Recent observations of the spectrum of J/psi produced in e+ e- collisions at the Upsilon(4S) resonance are in conflict with fixed-order calculations using the Non-Relativistic QCD (NRQCD) effective field theory. One problem is that leading order color-octet mechanisms predict an enhancement of the cross section for J/psi with maximal energy that is not observed in the data. However, in this region of phase space large perturbative corrections (Sudakov logarithms) as well as enhanced nonperturbative effects are important. In this paper we use the newly developed Soft-Collinear Effective Theory (SCET) to systematically include these effects. We find that these corrections significantly broaden the color-octet contribution to the J/psi spectrum. Our calculation employs a one-stage renormalization group evolution rather than the two-stage evolution used in previous SCET calculations. We give a simple argument for why the two methods yield identical results to lowest order in the SCET power counting.

description: We propose a novel direction to improve the denoising quality of filtering-based denoising algorithms in real time by predicting the best filter parameter value using a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). We take the use case of BM3D, the state-of-the-art filtering-based denoising algorithm, to demonstrate and validate our approach. We propose and train a simple, shallow CNN to predict in real time, the optimum filter parameter value, given the input noisy image. Each training example consists of a noisy input image (training data) and the filter parameter value that produces the best output (training label). Both qualitative and quantitative results using the widely used PSNR and SSIM metrics on the popular BSD68 dataset show that the CNN-guided BM3D outperforms the original, unguided BM3D across different noise levels. Thus, our proposed method is a CNN-based improvement on the original BM3D which uses a fixed, default parameter value for all images.

A Gardener's Approach : Prescribed Burn Edition
Creators: name: Arms, Connor
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2021

description: The Okanagan-Similkameen is a landscape of complex and often conflicting cultural identities and practices. Historically, the introduction of one group of people has meant the displacement of another. First pitched in 2002 and now close to realization, the arrival of a National Park Reserve is contested for being yet another erasure of the locals livelihood and autonomy. One of the biggest changes to the landscape itself will be the reintroduction of a prescribed burning regime within a mosaic of protected areas caught between public and private land. This project imagines a possible future where the reintroduction of prescribed burning might trigger spatial reactions that create degrees of separation between protected areas and the people who live here rather than distinct lines. The lens of this exploration is developed in Part One: a study of a gardener’s relationship with rhythms, layering, and time. Part two reinterprets these characteristics as the features of a game table, on which a narrative exploration of prescribed burns is imagined.

description: Rubber plantations (H. brasiliensis) have a productive potential inside the area known as the humid tropic, in which adequate agro-ecological conditions prevail for their establishment and production; in particular for Tabasco state, the municipalities that presented the greatest potential areas were: Huimanguillo, Macuspana and Tacotalpa. The base for the financial evaluation was the updating and improvement of the technological package that generated the National Institute of Forestry, Agriculture and Livestock Research (INIFAP) on the establishment and production in rubber plantations (H. brasiliensis) in the years of 2011 and 2017. The financial indicators that were used in the economic evaluation were those traditionally used in long-term forestry and agricultural projects, according to international methodologies. The indicators used were the Benefit / Cost Ratio (RB/C), Net Present Value (NPV) and Internal Rate of Return (IRR), which were also subjected to a sensitivity analysis, under three options to do more drastic evaluation. In all cases, the profitability indicators that were used were of a positive nature and, when contrasting with the decision rule in the evaluation of projects, was to accept them and, in addition, at the time of knowing that there is technically productive potential for plantations of rubber, the risk of investing is minimized and producers, agroindustrial and managers of the public and private initiative serves as a tool in decision making.

The typical behavior of the empirical density is described by a nonlinear McKean-Vlasov equation depending on , the scaling parameter separating the time scale of the slow variable from the time scale of the fast variable. Its atypical behavior is encapsulated in a large N Large Deviation Principle (LDP) with a rate functional. We study the $Γ$-convergence of as $\rightarrow$ 0 and show it converges to the rate functional appearing in the Macroscopic Fluctuations Theory (MFT) for diffusive systems.

description: We present new near infrared spectroscopic measurements for 29 luminous high-z quasars and use the data to discuss the size and other properties of the NLRs in those sources. The high resolution spectra have been used to carefully model the Fe II blends and to provide reliable [O III], Fe II and Hb measurements. We find that about 2/3 of all high luminosity sources show strong [O III] lines while the remaining objects show no or very weak such line. While weak [O III] emitters are also found among lower luminosity AGN, we argue that the implications for very high luminosity objects are different. In particular, we suggest that the averaging of these two populations in other works gave rise to claims of a Baldwin relationship in [O III] which is not confirmed by our data. We also argue that earlier proposed relations of the type R_NLR \propto L_[O III]^{1/2}, where R_NLR is the NLR radius, are theoretically sound yet they must break down for R_NLR exceeding a few kpc. This suggests that the NLR properties in luminous sources are different from those observed in nearby AGN. In particular, we suggest that some sources lost their very large, dynamically unbound NLR while others are in a phase of violent star-forming events that produce a large quantity of high density gas in the central kpc. This gas is ionized and excited by the central radiation source and its spectroscopic properties may be different from those observed in nearby, lower luminosity NLRs. We also discuss the dependence of EW(Hb) and Fe II/Hb on L, M_BH, and accretion rate for a large sample of AGNs. The strongest dependence of the two quantities is on the accretion rate and the Fe II/Hb correlation is probably due to the EW(Hb) dependence on accretion rate. We show the most extreme values measured so far of Fe II/Hb and address its correlation with EW([O III]).

description: Abstract Addressing the need of non-native English-speaking teachers (NNESTs) to construct an identity as legitimate professionals in the English language teaching arena, this study focuses on the importance of dialogues in creating a more empowering conceptualization of self. Teacher identity construction has been studied under the various traditions of communication theory; however, this study explored identity construction by situating this to Phenomenological Tradition wherein the concept of “otherness” or discourse between self and others is applied. This is a qualitative study that used the methodologies of autoethnography and narrative inquiry. In this study, the researcher used dialogic reflection as a NNEST teaching native English-speaking students in the United States. The autoethnographic data were collected and analyzed to answer the research questions: (1) What is my view of English language teaching as a non-native English-speaking teacher teaching native English-speaking students? And (2) How does my view of English language teaching, through my discourse and interactions with my native English-speaking students, parents, and colleagues, shape my professional identity as an English teacher? Dialogues were used to generate rich, detailed views of language teaching. Data analysis from narrative dialogues illuminated five global themes: language teaching (1) requires extra effort; (2) needs accountability; (3) entails engagement and practicality; (4) based on teachers’ personal qualities; (5) requires knowledge, skills, and professionalism. These views shape the researcher’s identity as a (1) supporter; (2) facilitator; and (3) motivator. The findings of the study suggest that dialogues are a strong motivational factor for the construction of teacher identity and that they can be used to explore personal experiences and be connected to wider cultural and social understandings of identity formation.

description: In this work we present an evolutionary game inspired by the work of Carlo Cipolla entitled The basic laws of human stupidity. The game expands the classical scheme of two archetypical strategies, collaborators and defectors, by including two additional strategies. One of these strategies is associated to a stupid player that according to Cipolla is the most dangerous one as it undermines the global wealth of the population. By considering a spatial evolutionary game and imitation dynamics that go beyond the paradigm of a rational player we explore the impact of Cipolla' s ideas and analyze the extent of the damage that the stupid players inflict on the population

description: We study F-terms describing coupling of the supergravity to N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories which admit large N expansions. We show that these F-terms are given by summing over genus one non-planar diagrams of the large N expansion of the associated matrix model (or more generally bosonic gauge theory). The key ingredient in this derivation is the observation that the chiral ring of the gluino fields is deformed by the supergravity fields, generalizing the C-deformation which was recently introduced. The gravity induced part of the C-deformation can be derived from the Bianchi identities of the supergravity, but understanding gravitational corrections to the F-terms requires a non-traditional interpretation of these identities.

description: We promote a study of D-branes of type IIB string on the AdS_5 x S^5 background. The possible D-branes preserving half of supersymmetries were classified up to and including the fourth order of fermionic variable þin our previous work [hep-th/0310228]. In this paper we show that our classification is still valid even at the full order of þ. This proof supplements our previous results and completes the classification of D-branes in the type IIB string theory on the AdS_5 x S^5.

description: Using hydrodynamical simulations for a large set of high-density matter equations of state (EoSs) we systematically determine the threshold mass M_thres for prompt black-hole formation in equal-mass and asymmetric neutron star (NS) mergers. We devise the so far most direct, general and accurate method to determine the unknown maximum mass of nonrotating NSs from merger observations revealing M_thres. Considering hybrid EoSs with hadron-quark phase transition, we identify a new, observable signature of quark matter in NS mergers. Furthermore, our findings have direct applications in gravitational wave searches, kilonova interpretations and multi-messenger constraints on NS properties.

description: We present a deep XMM-Newton observation of the z=6.30 QSO SDSS J1030+0524, the second most distant quasar currently known. The data contain sufficient counts for spectral analysis, demonstrating the ability of XMM-Newton to measure X-ray spectral shapes of z~6 QSOs with integration times >100ks. The X-ray spectrum is well fit by a power law with index Gamma=2.12 +/- 0.11, an optical-X-ray spectral slope of a_{ox}=-1.80, and no absorption excess to the Galactic value, though our data are also consistent with a power law index in the range 2.02 < Gamma < 2.5 and excess absorption in the range 0 < N_H(cm^-2) < 8x10^22. There is also a possible detection (2 sigma) of FeKa emission. The X-ray properties of this QSO are, overall, similar to those of lower-redshift radio-quiet QSOs. This is consistent with the statement that the X-ray properties of radio-quiet QSOs show no evolution over 0

description: This paper covers the fast solution of large acoustic problems on low-resources parallel platforms. A domain decomposition method is coupled with a dynamic load balancing scheme to efficiently accelerate a geometrical acoustic method. The geometrical method studied implements a beam-tracing method where intersections are handled as in a ray-tracing method. Beyond the distribution of the global processing upon multiple sub-domains, a second parallelization level is operated by means of multi-threading and shared memory mechanisms. Numerical experiments show that this method allows to handle large scale open domains for parallel computing purposes on few machines. Urban acoustic pollution arrising from car traffic was simulated on a large model of the Shinjuku district of Tokyo, Japan. The good speed-up results illustrate the performance of this new domain decomposition method.

The decays omega(782), phi(1020) to 5 pi in the hidden local symmetry approach

description: The decays omega -> 2pi^+ 2pi^- pi^0 and omega -> pi^+ pi^- 3pi^0 are reconsidered in the hidden local symmetry approach (HLS) added with the anomalous terms. The decay amplitudes are analyzed in detail, paying the special attention to the Adler condition of vanishing the whole amplitude at vanishing momentum of any final pion. Combining the Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka (OZI) rule applied to the five pion final state, with the Adler condition, we calculate also the phi -> 2pi^+ 2pi^-pi^0 and phi -> pi^+ pi^- 3pi^0 decay amplitudes. The partial widths of the above decays are evaluated, and the excitation curves in e^+e^- annihilation are obtained, assuming reasonable particular relations among the parameters characterizing the anomalous terms of the HLS Lagrangian. The evaluated branching ratios B(phi -> pi^+ pi^- 3pi^0)~2x10^{-7} and B(phi -> 2pi^+ 2pi^- pi^0)~7x10^{-7} are such that with the luminosity L=500 pb^{-1} attained at DAFNE phi factory, one may already possess about 1685 events of the decays phi -> 5pi.

Luminosity limits on white dwarfs in a Galactic shroud
Creators: name: Holopainen, Janne
name: Flynn, Chris
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We place observational constraints on a recently proposed Galactic population, dubbed the shroud (Gyuk & Gates 1999, Gates & Gyuk 2001). The shroud would be a very thick Galactic disk of low luminosity objects, most likely old white dwarfs, proposed to explain the optical depth seen in microlensing surveys towards the Magellanic clouds. The shroud is a simple alternative to the lenses being distributed in a classical, near-spherical dark halo; the advantage of the shroud is that it would compose only a fraction of a dark halo's total mass. In this paper, we argue that stars of the Galactic shroud would be detectable in the recent proper motion survey of Oppenheimer et al. (2001) if their absolute luminosities were brighter than M_R_59F = 19.4 or approximately M_V = 18.6. We adopt a range of simple models of the shroud's kinematics and morphology, and the colours and luminosities of its white dwarfs; via Monte-Carlo simulations, we predict the numbers expected in the Oppenheimer et al. survey, which would be clearly separated from the numbers produced by white dwarfs of the disk, thick disk and halo. The number of white dwarf detections in the proper motion survey (98) is found to be well explained by the disk, thick disk and halo. With the most conservative kinematic and density parameters for the shroud, and an absolute luminosity of the white dwarfs of M_R_59F = 17.6, we find that the proper motion survey would detect over 100 WDs, just from the shroud. For a M_R_59F = 19.4 shroud, the survey would find 5 +/- 2 peculiar objects, whereas only two white dwarfs with such characteristics are found in the original data. M_R_59F = 19.4 corresponds to M_V = 18.6 for WDs with V - I = -1.030.

This Is Not a Design Project : A Work of New York 2140 Architectural Fanfiction
Creators: name: Huser, Emily
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2021

description: The thesis imagines a speculative narrative set in the spaces of Kim Stanley Robinson’s science fiction novel New York 2140 to explore architecture’s relationship with capitalist urbanization. The novel caricatures a future New York beset by disastrous impacts of climate change and a housing crisis precipitated by financial speculation. The thesis speculates on architects’ role in this future society. While architecture plays a role in the negative social impacts resulting from capital accumulation through the built environment, buildings in and of themselves lack agency. The thesis questions the architectural discipline’s focus on design objects, as opposed to alternative modes of practice, as solutions to the negative impacts of capitalist urbanization.

Charm production asymmetries from heavy-quark recombination

description: Charm asymmetries in fixed-target hadroproduction experiments are sensitive to power corrections to the QCD factorization theorem for heavy quark production. A power correction called heavy-quark recombination has recently been proposed to explain these asymmetries. In heavy-quark recombination, a light quark or antiquark participates in a hard scattering which produces a charm-anticharm quark pair. The light quark or antiquark emerges from the scattering with small momentum in the rest frame of the charm quark, and together they hadronize into a charm particle. The cross section for this process can be calculated within perturbative QCD up to an overall normalization. Heavy-quark recombination explains the observed D meson and Λ_c asymmetries with a minimal set of universal nonperturbative parameters.
