description: Classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (CAH) is a rare genetic condition characterized by cortisol deficiency and excess adrenal androgens. CAH treatment is a lifelong balancing act between the need to reduce excess androgens, typically with supraphysiologic glucocorticoid (GC) doses, and concerns about potentially serious GC-related adverse events. Tradeoffs between the consequences of excess androgens versus GCs must be constantly reassessed throughout each patient’s lifetime, based on current clinical needs and treatment goals. Adding to this burden are limited treatment options and the need for new CAH medications. This narrative review describes the current challenges of CAH treatment, the potential of new non-GC therapies to reduce excess androgens and thereby allow for lower GC doses, and the potential implications of decreasing GC doses to a more physiologic range (i.e. sufficient to replace missing cortisol, but without the need to reduce androgens). Even with non-GC therapies, patients’ needs will continue to shift throughout their lifetimes. Treatment will therefore always require joint decision-making between physicians and patients. However, over the lifetimes of patients with CAH, any reduction in GC daily dose may have a large cumulative impact in decreasing the GC-related burden of this disease.

description: Existing information-theoretic frameworks based on maximum entropy network ensembles are not able to explain the emergence of heterogeneity in complex networks. Here, we fill this gap of knowledge by developing a classical framework for networks based on finding an optimal trade-off between the information content of a compressed representation of the ensemble and the information content of the actual network ensemble. In this way not only we introduce a novel classical network ensemble satisfying a set of soft constraints but we are also able to calculate the optimal distribution of the constraints. We show that for the classical network ensemble in which the only constraints are the expected degrees a power-law degree distribution is optimal. Also, we study spatially embedded networks finding that the interactions between nodes naturally lead to non-uniform spread of nodes in the space, with pairs of nodes at a given distance not necessarily obeying a power-law distribution. The pertinent features of real-world air transportation networks are well described by the proposed framework.

description: Hot Jupiters under extreme flux from their host stars can exhibit mass loss and an extended atmosphere that can be detected by transit observations in the near-UV. We present observations of WASP-121 b and other hot giant planets using the Swift Ultraviolet/Optical Telescope (UVOT) in the UVM2 band (λc = 2246 Å). We compare the near-UV transit depths to new optical observations with the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). In some cases, the data suggest a deeper transit, but not to a significant degree due to the low precision of the Swift observations. For WASP-121b, higher precision NUV measurements with the HST have already confirmed a deeper transit. Further observations will be needed to confirm deeper transits of the other planets. Our results demonstrate the utility of the UVOT as a tool to study transiting hot Jupiters.

description: High price variability in agricultural commodities increases the importance of accurate forecasts. Density forecasts estimate the future probability distribution of a random variable, offering a complete description of risk. In this paper we investigate density forecast of lean hog prices for the 2002-2012 period for two weeks horizons. We estimate historical densities using GARCH models with different error distributions and generate forward looking implied distributions, obtaining risk-neutral densities from the information contained in options prices. Real-world densities, which incorporate risk, are obtained by parametric and non parametric calibration of the risk-neutral densities. Then the predictive accuracy of the forecasts is evaluated and compared. Goodness of fit and out of sample log-likelihood comparisons indicate that real-world densities outperform risk-neutral and historical densities, suggesting the presence of risk premiums in the lean hog markets. For the historical density forecasts, GED error distributions for the GARCH estimations show an adequate predictive accuracy. Meanwhile, historical densities with normal and t-distributions show a discrete performance.

Brown Dwarf Retrievals on FIRE! Medium Resolution Retrieval of a T9 Dwarf

description: Brown dwarf spectra offer vital testbeds for our understanding of the chemical and physical processes that sculpt substellar atmospheres. Recently, atmospheric retrieval approaches have been successfully applied to a number of low-resolution (R≈100) spectra of T and Y dwarfs, yielding constraints on the abundances of chemical species and temperature structures of these atmospheres. Medium-resolution spectra of brown dwarfs may offer additional insight, as molecular features should be more easily disentangled from one another and the thermal structure of the upper atmosphere is more readily probed. Furthermore, kinematic information such as the radial and rotation velocities of these objects can be retrieved directly from the spectra. We present preliminary results from applying the CHIMERA retrieval framework to a high signal-to-noise, medium-resolution (R≈6000) FIRE spectrum of a T9 dwarf from 0.85-2.5 microns. At 60x higher spectral resolution than previous retrievals, a number of novel challenges arise, which we explore. We compare these retrieval results to those obtained for a R≈100 spectrum of the same object, revealing how constraints on atmospheric abundances greatly improve with increased spectral resolution. We discuss lessons learned from this work in preparation for JWST observations of substellar objects at medium (R≈2700) spectral resolution.

description: Accurate modeling of exoplanet atmospheres can help inform and constrain observations. Current efforts to model exoplanet atmospheres primarily focus on minimal-complexity one-dimensional models, which miss some key atmospheric mechanisms, and high-complexity computationally expensive three-dimensional models. Therefore there is a natural gap for 2D shallow-water equations models. Many previous such models are built in Fortran, which makes them difficult to adapt to the needs of exoplanet science. Our model, SWAMP-E (Shallow-Water Atmospheric Model in Python for Exoplanets), can accurately and rapidly explore vast parameter space. The code is flexible, modular, built fully in Python, and could be easily adapted to model a variety of dissimilar space objects, from Brown Dwarfs to smaller, terrestrial planets. The Python code will produce the thermal maps necessary for the generation of phase curves and secondary eclipse maps, which will help constrain and make predictions for observations. We intend to make the code open-source to serve the planetary science community. Here I will present the circulation regimes we have explored in hot Jupiters and discuss plans for future exploration of smaller, cooler planets.

description: Physical systems made of many interacting quantum particles can often be described by Euler hydrodynamic equations in the limit of long wavelengths and low frequencies. Recently such a classical hydrodynamic framework, now dubbed Generalized Hydrodynamics (GHD), was found for quantum integrable models in one spatial dimension. Despite its great predictive power, GHD, like any Euler hydrodynamic equation, misses important quantum effects, such as quantum fluctuations leading to non-zero equal-time correlations between fluid cells at different positions. Focusing on the one-dimensional gas of bosons with delta repulsion, and on states of zero entropy, for which quantum fluctuations are larger, we reconstruct such quantum effects by quantizing GHD. The resulting theory of quantum GHD can be viewed as a multi-component Luttinger liquid theory, with a small set of effective parameters that are fixed by the Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz. It describes quantum fluctuations of truly nonequilibrium systems where conventional Luttinger liquid theory fails.

Operating system support for warehouse-scale computing

description: Modern applications are increasingly backed by large-scale data centres. Systems software in these data centre environments, however, faces substantial challenges: the lack of uniform resource abstractions makes sharing and resource management inefficient, infrastructure software lacks end-to-end access control mechanisms, and work placement ignores the effects of hardware heterogeneity and workload interference. In this dissertation, I argue that uniform, clean-slate operating system (OS) abstractions designed to support distributed systems can make data centres more efficient and secure. I present a novel distributed operating system for data centres, focusing on two OS components: the abstractions for resource naming, management and protection, and the scheduling of work to compute resources. First, I introduce a reference model for a decentralised, distributed data centre OS, based on pervasive distributed objects and inspired by concepts in classic 1980s distributed OSes. Translucent abstractions free users from having to understand implementation details, but enable introspection for performance optimisation. Fine-grained access control is supported by combining storable, communicable identifier capabilities, and context-dependent, ephemeral handle capabilities. Finally, multi-phase I/O requests implement optimistically concurrent access to objects while supporting diverse application-level consistency policies. Second, I present the DIOS operating system, an implementation of my model as an extension to Linux. The DIOS system call API is centred around distributed objects, globally resolvable names, and translucent references that carry context-sensitive object meta-data. I illustrate how these concepts support distributed applications, and evaluate the performance of DIOS in microbenchmarks and a data-intensive MapReduce application. I find that it offers improved, finegrained isolation of resources, while permitting flexible sharing. Third, I present the Firmament cluster scheduler, which generalises prior work on scheduling via minimum-cost flow optimisation. Firmament can flexibly express many scheduling policies using pluggable cost models; it makes high-quality placement decisions based on fine-grained information about tasks and resources; and it scales the flow-based scheduling approach to very large clusters. In two case studies, I show that Firmament supports policies that reduce colocation interference between tasks and that it successfully exploits flexibility in the workload to improve the energy efficiency of a heterogeneous cluster. Moreover, my evaluation shows that Firmament scales the minimum-cost flow optimisation to clusters of tens of thousands of machines while still making sub-second placement decisions.

description: A general linearisation procedure for the consistent tangent of a small-strain visco-plastic material model is presented in this note. The procedure is based on multi-variable linearisation around a so-called 'reference state'. In particular, the linerarisation of the time integration scheme is found to yield an extra term compared to classical expressions, which only appears because the material response is time-dependent. It has the effect of yielding a very accurate initial guess for the Newton-Raphson protocol based on the ongoing viscous flow. It is shown, using a modern variational FFT-based solver, that the extra term reduces both the CPU time and the number of Newton-Raphson iterations by around a factor two.

description: Strong electronic correlations can produce remarkable phenomena such as metal-insulator transitions and greatly enhance superconductivity, thermoelectricity, or optical non-linearity. In correlated systems, spatially varying charge textures also amplify magnetoelectric effects or electroresistance in mesostructures. However, how spatially varying spin textures may influence electron transport in the presence of correlations remains unclear. Here we demonstrate a very large topological Hall effect (THE) in thin films of a lightly electron-doped charge-transfer insulator, (Ca, Ce)MnO3. Magnetic force microscopy reveals the presence of magnetic bubbles, whose density vs. magnetic field peaks near the THE maximum, as is expected to occur in skyrmion systems. The THE critically depends on carrier concentration and diverges at low doping, near the metal-insulator transition. We discuss the strong amplification of the THE by correlation effects and give perspectives for its non-volatile control by electric fields.

description: The soft X-ray transient GU Mus has been detected by XMM-Newton in the quiescent state. The source is very faint, with a 0.5-10.0 keV unabsorbed flux of $\simeq 1.1 \times 10^{-14}$ ergs cm$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$. The spectra is well fit by an absorbed powerlaw with a photon index of $ α= 1.6 \pm 0.4$, close to the value seen when the source was in the low/hard state in Aug. 1991. From our observed luminosity, it seems unlikely that the quiescent state emission is dominated by coronal X-rays from the secondary. The flux also appears to be in agreement with the ADAF model of BH-transients in quiescence.

description: Recent studies found that the diffusive transport of conserved quantities in non-integrable many-body systems has an imprint on quantum entanglement: while the von Neumann entropy of a state grows linearly in time $t$ under a global quench, all $n$th Rényi entropies with $n > 1$ grow with a diffusive scaling $\sqrt{t}$. To understand this phenomenon, we introduce an amplitude $A(t)$, which is the overlap of the time-evolution operator $U(t)$ of the entire system with the tensor product of the two evolution operators of the subsystems of a spatial bipartition. As long as $|A(t)| \ge e^{-\sqrt{Dt}}$, which we argue holds true for generic diffusive non-integrable systems, all $n$th Rényi entropies with $n >1$ (annealed-averaged over initial product states) are bounded from above by $\sqrt{t}$. We prove the following inequality for the disorder average of the amplitude, $\overline{|A(t)|} \ge e^{ - \sqrt{Dt}} $, in a local spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ random circuit with a $\text{U}(1)$ conservation law by mapping to the survival probability of a symmetric exclusion process. Furthermore, we numerically show that the typical decay behaves asymptotically, for long times, as $|A(t)| \sim e^{ - \sqrt{Dt}} $ in the same random circuit as well as in a prototypical non-integrable model with diffusive energy transport but no disorder.

description: Current study analyzed the socio-economic factors that impact farmers’ willingness to grow switchgrass and Miscanthus in Missouri and Iowa. The results of study show that current level of farmers’ willingness to grow either crop is low. Hence, there are barriers to accomplishing to goal of producing 21 billion gallons of cellulosic ethanol by 2022, as set by the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007. The results of the ordered probit regressions show that farmers with higher education levels and smaller farm sales are more willing to grow energy crops. The results of this study show that currently growing energy crops is more attractive to small farms as a source of crop diversification, rather than an alternative crop production in the big scale by large farms.

In the time domain the relaxation functions corresponding to the complex frequency dependent Cole-Cole, Cole-Davidson and Havriliak-Negami susceptibilities are also represented in terms of $H$-functions. In the frequency domain the complex frequency dependent susceptibility function corresponding to the time dependent stretched exponential relaxation function is given in terms of $H$-functions. The new representations are useful for fitting to experiment.

description: Gravity model of trade has emerged as an important and popular model in explaining and predicting bilateral trade flows. While the theoretical justification is no longer in doubt, nonetheless, its empirical application has however generated several unresolved controversies in the literature. These specifically concerns estimation challenges which revolve around the validity of the log linear transformation of the gravity equation in the presence of heteroscedasticity and zero trade observations. These two issues generate several challenges concerning the appropriate choice of the estimation techniques. This paper evaluates the performance of alternative estimation techniques in the presence of zero trade observations, checks for the validation of their assumptions and their behaviour in cases of departure from their assumptions, particularly the departure from the heteroscedasticity assumption. Analysis was based on a dataset of Africa's fish exports to the European Union, which contains about 70% zero observations. Given our dataset and the gravity equation specified, our results show that there is no one general best performing model, although most of the linear estimators outperform the GLM estimators in many of the robust checks performed. In essence, we find that choosing the best model depends on the dataset, and a lot of robust tests and advocate an encompassing toolkit approach of the methods so as to establish robustness. We concur with Head and Mayer (2013) that the gravity equation is indeed just a toolkit and cookbook in the estimation of bilateral trade flows.

description: Agricultural cooperatives have specific characteristics. Coop members may have different roles (owners, buyers, sellers and controllers) and, consequently, these players may have different objectives. The various stakeholders may also have different objectives from the management of the cooperative. This makes agency theory a good framework for the analysis of farmers’ satisfaction with their cooperative. Based on a sample of 277 members of fruit and vegetable marketing cooperatives in Spain, the results show that members’ satisfaction with the cooperative exerts a positive influence on members’ desire to continue as members of that cooperative. The results also confirm the positive influence of trust, information and control on satisfaction.

description: The transition zone between the boreal forest and Arctic tundra, the Forest-tundra ecotone (FTE), is an area of high ecological and climatological significance. Satellite remote sensing has the potential to enable accurate circumarctic mapping and characterisation of both latitudinal and altitudinal FTEs. This study aims at a multi-platform, multi-scale characterisation of the FTE phenomenon and an evaluation of the response of the interface to climate change. This involves three main steps: FTE delineation, FTE categorisation based on the spatial characteristics of the interface, and the investigation of the relationship between FTE dynamics and spatial configuration in the circumarctic region. FTE delineation is conducted using an image texture-based classification scheme developed to statistically exploit the spatial patterns of the interface. Image texture statistics for tree cover density are derived from the grey-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM), and the Landsat Vegetation Continuous Fields (VCF) product is used as the primary data source. The outcome offers advantages, both visually and statistically, over traditional image classification methods and can be applied to different parts of the circumarctic region. Several globally occurring primary spatial ‘forms’ are recognised for altitudinal FTEs which are found to have linkages to the sensitivity of the interface to shift with climate change. A technique is developed to categorise the FTEs into these spatial forms by the degree of fragmentation of the interface. The technique involves a texture extraction algorithm named FOurier-based Textural Ordination (FOTO) and supervised classification. Normalised Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) calculated from Sentinel-2 imagery is used for FTE derivation and categorisation. Finally, the relationship between the response of circumarctic latitudinal FTE to climate change and its spatial characteristics is investigated at MODIS (MOderate Resolution Image Spectroradiometer) resolution utilising the data availability and computing powers of the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform. Building on the theory of treeline ‘forms’, a continuous measurement of fragmentation is developed based on window spectral analysis to represent the spatial characteristics of the FTE. Statistical relationship between FTE fragmentation, dynamics and continentality is analysed. This provides insight into how FTE spatial configuration links to interactions between the interface position and outside forcing, which can potentially contribute to the optimisation of future climate modelling as well as the modelling of vegetation reactions to climate change.

description: Rice production in most of Asian countries has been increased more rapidly than population and this has been led to increase in supply and proportionately decrease in the real price of rice in world and domestic markets. Furthermore, together with growth in production and national gross income of the country per-capita income has been increased and also demand for rice at national and international level quality has been increased. In this case studying the market conditions of different qualities of rice including marketing margins, causative relations among the prices, market integrations in long term and finally price transferring and market integration in short term is the important consequence that can help policymakers and planners in their decision makings on research, production, distribution and marketing of rice strategic product. So, using the statistics from Jihad Agriculture Organization of Guilan Province in case of the price of rice qualities (items) including Sadri momtaz (S1), Sadri darge yek (S2), Sadri mamooli (S3) and Khazar (K1) during 1999-2009 market conditions of different qualities of rice was studied. Results show that impulses in wholesale prices in Khazar rice rapidly influence on-farm prices, however, in case of other rice qualities the rate and speed of this influence is low. But in wholesale-retail market for Sadri quality rice impulses influence strongly in wholesale price and this shows intense integration of these two rice markets in Iran. It is suggested that according to the different quality of rice verities, support policy design and decision making process assigned separately.

description: [The desire for the city] The desire for the city expresses first and foremost the discomfort of a lack and therefore takes the form of an antidote to an actual or potential loss. Thus, it can be said that the desire for the city is experienced as the hope of keeping open and alive a relationship that is possible, but in no way absolutely guaranteed

description: Identification and analysis of farmers’ vulnerability associated with their risk aversion degree is one of the necessary requirements for planning and reducing impacts of drought in Iran. So, this study was investigated three risk vulnerability parameters (economic, social and technical) among wheat farmers categorized in accordance with their risk aversion degree in the Mashhad County (Iran) between drought years of 2009-2011. Vulnerability parameters were determined by Delphi technique. For measuring vulnerability and risk aversion degree, formula of Me-Bar and Valdes and method of Safety First Rule were applied respectively. Findings revealed that in social vulnerability indicators; education level, collaboratively farming activities and dependency on government and in technical vulnerability; irrigation method, cultivation method and type of cultivation; risk averse farmers have had the highest vulnerability level under drought conditions. While respecting economic vulnerability, risk neutral farmers (in insuring for crops, sale prices of crops and the type of land ownership), have had the highest vulnerability level.

description: We present observations of the H-alpha, H-beta, [SII] 6716, 6731 and [NII] 6583 emission lines in the galactic HII region Sh2-235 with the Mapper of Narrow Galaxy Lines (MaNGaL), a tunable filter at the 1-m telescope of Special Astrophysical Observatory of the Russian Academy of Sciences. We show that the HII region is obscured by neutral material with AV = 2-4 mag. The area with the highest AV is situated to the south-west from the ionizing star and coincides with a maximum detected electron density of >=300 cm(-3). The combination of these results with archive AKARI far-infrared data allows us to estimate the contribution of the front and rear walls to the total column density of neutral material in S235, and explain the three-dimensional structure of the region. The HII region consist of a denser, more compact portion deeply embedded in the neutral medium and the less dense and obscured gas. The front and rear walls of the HII region are inhomogeneous, with the material in the rear wall having a higher column density. We find a two-sided photodissociation region in the dense clump S235 East 1, illuminated by a UV field with G0=50-70 and 200 Habing units in the western and eastern parts, respectively.

description: Spatial dependence exists whenever the expected utility of one unit of analysis is affected by the decisions or behavior made by other units of analysis. Spatial dependence is ubiquitous in social relations and interactions. Yet, there are surprisingly few social science studies accounting for spatial dependence. This holds true for settings in which researchers use monadic data, where the unit of analysis is the individual unit, agent, or actor, and even more true for dyadic data settings, where the unit of analysis is the pair or dyad representing an interaction or a relation between two individual units, agents, or actors. Dyadic data offer more complex ways of modeling spatial-effect variables than do monadic data. The commands described in this article facilitate spatial analysis by providing an easy tool for generating, with one command line, spatial-effect variables for monadic contagion as well as for all possible forms of contagion in dyadic data.
