description: The variability of quasars across multiple wavelengths is a useful probe of physical conditions in active galactic nuclei. In particular, variable accretion rates, instabilities, and reverberation effects in the accretion disk of a supermassive black hole (SMBH) are expected to produce correlated flux variations in UV and optical bands. Recent work has further argued that binary quasars should exhibit strongly correlated UV and optical periodicities. Strong UV-optical correlations have indeed been established in small samples of up to approximately 30 quasars with well-sampled light curves, and have extended the "bluer-when-brighter" trend previously found within the optical bands. Here we further test the nature of quasar variability by examining the observed-frame UV-optical correlations in a large sample of 1,315 bright quasars with overlapping UV and optical light curves for the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) and the Catalina Real-time Transient Survey (CRTS), respectively. We find that strong correlations exist in this much larger sample, but we rule out, at approximately 95% confidence, the simple hypothesis that the intrinsic UV and optical variations of all quasars are fully correlated. Our results therefore imply the existence of physical mechanism(s) that can generate uncorrelated optical and UV flux variations.

description: While the mean global sea level has climbed by an average of 3.2 mm/year since 1993—and is projected to increase another 0.18 – 0.82 meters by 2100—coastal populations have continued to expand. Coastal communities may be compelled to adapt to these competing forces, and at an increasing frequency in the near future. This paper explores the property price impact of several adaptation structures that can help bolster the shoreline and protect homes from sea level rise (SLR) in Anne Arundel County, MD. Our study uses a novel dataset on coastal features that is very spatially explicit, and contains the location of all adaptation structures. We also use maps of SLR zones to explore how property price impacts vary depending on vulnerability to sea level rise. Results indicate that sea level rise and adaption structures, such as bulkheads and rip-raps, can have a significant impact on waterfront home prices, with the impact varying across risks and type of adaption structure. A home located in the most threatened SLR zone that is unprotected by an adaptation structure sells for 19-23% less, on average. On the other hand, homes in threatened SLR zones with certain adaptation structures see a 21% increase in property price, approximately compensating for the threatened location. Since sea level in the Chesapeake Bay is projected to rise approximately two feet over the next century, the results here suggest that property markets are incorporating this information. Our results should be useful to policy makers, developers, insurers, and other parties involved in coastal management, who trade off the costs and benefits of development and adaptation.

description: In this paper we consider the iteratively regularized Gauss-Newton method, where regularization is achieved by Ivanov regularization, i.e., by imposing a priori constraints on the solution. We propose an a posteriori choice of the regularization radius, based on an inexact Newton / discrepancy principle approach, prove convergence and convergence rates under a variational source condition as the noise level tends to zero, and provide an analysis of the discretization error. Our results are valid in general, possibly nonreflexive Banach spaces, including, e.g., $L^\infty$ as a preimage space. The theoretical findings are illustrated by numerical experiments.

description: In this research, we aimed to explore adolescents’ experiences concerning the function of friendship in the process of the development of self-identity. We enacted the phenomenological approach as the method in this research. We conducted in-depth individual interviews for the data sampling. The research results show that friendship becomes a prominent point in the process of the development of middle adolescents’ self-identity. It would happen if, in the relationship of a group of adolescents, there are similar values and trust. Therefore, they can influence each other and strengthen the identity of each individual.

description: Commercial buildings offer opportunities for companies to reduce energy use that, according to engineering analyses, should save them money while also lowering greenhouse gas (GHG) and other polluting emissions. Supermarket refrigeration is one sector with ample energy-efficiency and emission-reducing investment options. This study explores the evidence of an energy efficiency paradox for supermarket refrigeration technologies that are estimated to reduce energy and emissions while providing net cost savings for firms. We conduct interviews and focus groups with representatives from 44 small, medium, and large US supermarket chains. We focus on the refrigeration system given its dominant role in determining store electricity consumption and GHG emissions. Consistent with the economics literature on the energy-efficiency paradox, we distinguish between market failures, behavioral anomalies, and other factors not accounted for in typical NPV or payback calculations for supermarket refrigeration technologies. Imperfect information and uncertainty about the performance of new technologies were the most pervasive barriers among participants, though split incentives between firms and contractors or employees, liquidity constraints, tradeoffs with other valued system attributes like reliability and customer appeal, and certain behavioral anomalies also play a role among some firms.

description: Nonlinear systems with two competing frequencies show locking or resonances. In lasers, the two interacting frequencies can be the cavity repetition rate and a frequency externally applied to the system. Conversely, the excitation of breather oscillations in lasers naturally triggers a second characteristic frequency in the system, therefore showing competition between the cavity repetition rate and the breathing frequency. Yet, the link between breathing solitons and frequency locking is missing. Here we demonstrate frequency locking at Farey fractions of a breather laser. The winding numbers show the hierarchy of the Farey tree and the structure of a devil's staircase. Numerical simulations of a discrete laser model confirm the experimental findings. The breather laser may therefore serve as a simple model system to explore universal synchronization dynamics of nonlinear systems. The locked breathing frequencies feature high signal-to-noise ratio and can give rise to dense radio-frequency combs, which are attractive for applications.

description: This study conducts a meta-analysis of the value of water quality in the Chesapeake Bay derived from separate hedonic property value estimates in 14 Maryland counties. The meta-analysis allows us to: 1) investigate heterogeneity of estimates of the value of water clarity across counties based on socioeconomic and ecological factors, 2) understand the implication of econometric specification choices made in the original hedonic equations for benefit estimates, and 3) transfer the benefits out-of-sample to Bayfront counties in Washington, DC, Delaware, Virginia, and four additional counties in Maryland. We also investigate the in-sample and out-of-sample predictive power of different transfer strategies and find that a simpler unit value transfer can outperform more complex function transfers. The results illustrate both the usefulness of meta-analysis and the challenges of benefit transfer even when estimates being transferred represent a common geographic area, environmental attribute, and policy instrument.

In particular result for order, disorder parameters and para-fermi fields $σ_{Q}(x), μ_{\tilde{Q}}(x)$ and $ψ_{Q}(x)$ are presented for the $Z_{N}$-model. For the $A_{N-1}$-Toda model all form factors for exponentials of the Toda fields are proposed. The quantum field equation of motion is proved and the mass and wave function renormalization are calculated exactly.

description: The 21st century is the century of life science. With the rapid development of life science and technology, the social needs of biological professionals are changing dramatically, and the requirements for their theoretical quality and practical ability are becoming higher and higher. The construction of characteristic disciplines in Henan Province is advancing steadily, which is having a far-reaching impact on the talent cultivation of colleges and universities in the province, and the talent training mode of colleges and universities has also changed greatly. With the continuous expansion of the national undergraduate enrollment scale, it is of great theoretical and practical significance for local normal universities to cultivate biological professionals to adapt to the development of life science and social needs, and to explore a new model for the cultivation of biological professionals. Xinyang Normal University, based on the experience of biological talents training in the past 45 years, especially in the past five years around the construction of Henan Province's characteristic disciplines, focuses on the construction of "teaching staff, teaching team and practice team", focusing on improving the theoretical quality and practical ability of students majoring in biology, that is, a new training model of "one center, two improvements" for biological professionals. The new model has important theoretical significance and potential application value for the continuous improvement of teaching quality of biology education.

description: Cet article s’interroge sur les «tiraillements », les transformations et les ambivalences des identités des femmes cadres tunisiennes, construites dans les relations qui s’instaurent entre leur vie professionnelle et leur vie familiale. L’analyse d’une enquête qualitative menée auprès de soixante femmes dans des entreprises privées et des administrations publiques, a permis d’établir une typologie qui rend compte des identités différentielles des femmes cadres autour de la construction de l’identité dans le projet d’orientation scolaire, les stratégies professionnelles et familiales. Si les femmes cadres traditionnelles se cantonnent dans la reproduction des tâches au service d’un ordre familial, celles qualifiées «d’entre-deux » adoptent le compromis. Les « égalitaristes », caractéristiques d’un modèle émergeant dans le champ de l’emploi, se revendiquent dans l’affrontement ou passent à l’entrepreneuriat pour s’émanciper des contraintes du salariat afin de pouvoir exercer plus librement leurs responsabilités.

description: Arminianism is a Biblical interpretive construct and a theological response to Calvinism. Calvinism is the theology advanced by John Calvin, the leading French theologian of the Protestant Reformation. Arminians and Calvinists disagreed on fundamental Christian doctrine, including the doctrine of predestination and the role human free will plays in the process of Christian redemption and salvation. In the Dutch Republic of the seventeenth century and in English theological disputes of the eighteenth century, the Arminian-Calvinist conflict divided societies and Christian fellowships. This essay analyzes these historical Protestant conflicts by analyzing relevant historical, theological, and artistic contexts.

description: We systematically survey on Pt$_{x}$Cu$_{1-x}$/Co/MgO magnetic heterostructure with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy and report a significant improvement on spin-orbit torque switching efficiency in Pt-Cu alloy system. The largest damping-like spin-orbit torque efficiency determined by hysteresis loop shift measurement is about 0.44 for Pt$_{0.57}$Cu$_{0.43}$, which is originated from the higher resistivity tuned by alloying. Moreover, from the results of current-induced switching measurements, a lower critical switching current density is achieved by proper alloying due to the simultaneous enhancement of spin-orbit torque efficiency and reduction of coercivity of the Co layer. Finally, the ability to lower power consumption and preserve good thermal stability using Pt$_{x}$Cu$_{1-x}$ alloy is demonstrated, which suggests that Pt$_{x}$Cu$_{1-x}$ is an attractive candidate for future SOT-MRAM applications.

description: There are few studies examining the impacts of groundwater quality on residential property values. Using a unique dataset of groundwater well tests, we link residential transactions to home-specific contamination levels and undertake a hedonic analysis of homes in Lake County, Florida; where groundwater pollution concerns stem primarily from agricultural runoff. We find that testing and contamination yield a 2% to 6% depreciation, an effect that diminishes after the situation is resolved. Focusing specifically on nitrogen-based contamination, we find prices decline mainly at concentrations above the regulatory health standard, suggesting up to a 15% deprecation at levels twice the standard.

description: The Chesapeake Bay is the largest estuary in the United States and the third largest in the world. The surrounding Watershed encompasses 64,000 square miles, and is home to about 18 million people. There have been numerous studies measuring the value of different components of the Chesapeake Bay but no study or set of studies provides a comprehensive estimate of the values associated with the improvements likely to result from recently implemented pollution limits. To fill this gap we developed a stated preference (SP) survey that uses a discrete choice experiment response format to examine households’ willingness to pay (WTP) for water quality improvements in the Chesapeake Bay. During extensive focus group testing, care was taken to identify the environmental attributes that are most important to both users and non-users and to quantitatively describe these attributes using understandable and tangible metrics. The survey was mailed to a stratified random sample of households across 17 states in the eastern U.S. and the District of Columbia. This paper reports the results of the empirical analysis, including marginal WTP estimates for each environmental attribute and total WTP for the expected outcome of the pollution reduction program. A comparison of WTP across households suggests that a substantial portion of the benefits can be attributed to nonusers. Results also show that benefits from improving water quality in freshwater lakes in the Watershed are an important ancillary benefit likely to result from reducing pollution in the Bay.
Defects from phonons: Atomic transport by concerted motion in simple crystalline metals

description: Point defects play a crucial role in crystalline materials as they do not only impact the thermodynamic properties but are also central to kinetic processes. While they are necessary in thermodynamic equilibrium spontaneous defect formation in the bulk is normally considered highly improbable except for temperatures close to the melting point. Here, we demonstrate by means of atomistic simulations that processes involving concerted atomic motion that give rise to defect formation are in fact frequent in body-centered cubic metals even down to about 50% of the melting temperature. It is shown that this behavior is intimately related to the anharmonicity of the lattice vibrations and a flat energy landscape along certain crystallographic directions, a feature that is absent in, e.g., face-centered cubic lattice structures. This insight has implications for our general understanding of these materials and furthermore provides a complementary explanation for the so-called anomalous diffusion in group 4 transition metals.

description: In the framework of a strict mathematical approach based on classical theory of elasticity we present an idea of the deployment and stretching of the circular solar sail attached to the inflatable toroidal shell. It is predicted that by introducing the gas into the inflatable toroidal shell one can deploy and stretch a large size circular solar sail membrane. The formulas for the toroidal shell and sail membrane stresses and strains caused by the gas pressure in the shell are derived. The analytical expressions can be applied to a wide range of solar sail sizes. Numerical calculations for the sail of radii up to 100 m made of CP1 membrane and attached to the toroidal shell with the varied cross-section radius are presented. The normal transverse vibration modes of the sail membrane under tension caused by gas pressure in the shell are calculated. The feasibility of deployment and stretching of a solar sail with a large size circular membrane attached to the inflatable toroidal shell is demonstrated.

description: Introduction: This study examines the effect of investment decisions and funding decisions on firm value with institutional ownership as a moderating variable. In this study, investment decisions are measured by Current Asset to Total Assets (CATA) and Fixed Assets to Total Assets (FATA) while funding decisions are measured by Debt Equity Ratio (DER), institutional ownership is measured by (INST) and company value is measured by EV / EBITDA. Purpose: Analyzing the influence of investment decisions and funding decisions on the company's value in the manufacturing sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2014-2017. Results: The results showed that there was a positive and significant effect between CATA and DER on EV / EBITDA, while FATA had no effect on EV / EBITDA. Conclusions: The study was conducted on companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in the period 2014 to 2017. This study used as many as 87 manufacturing companies that met the criteria of sampling. This study was analyzed using multiple regression analysis and interaction tests and study also found that INST can strengthen the relationship between CATA and EV / EBITDA, weaken the relationship of DER and EV / EBITDA, and INST does not moderate the relationship between FATA and EV / EBITDA. The results of this study can be used by investors as a material consideration in terms of investment decisions and funding decisions, especially in manufacturing companies in Indonesia. Investors can choose a company that has good financial decisions and an appropriate portion of institutional ownership.

The model is integrable and all exact solutions describe the recollapsing universe. The behavior of the model near both initial and final points of evolution is analyzed. The model is consistent with the observational parameters. We single out the exact solution with the present-day values of acceleration parameter $q_0=0.5$ and dark matter density parameter $Ω_{ρ0}=0.3$ describing the evolution within the time approximately equal to $2H_0^{-1}$.

description: The problem of existence and uniqueness of a state of a joint system with given restrictions to subsystems is studied for a Fermion system, where a novel feature is non-commutativity between algebras of subsystems. For an arbitrary (finite or infinite) number of given subsystems, a product state extension is shown to exist if and only if all states of subsystems except at most one are even (with respect to the Fermion number). If the states of all subsystems are pure, then the same condition is shown to be necessary and sufficient for the existence of any joint extension. If the condition holds, the unique product state extension is the only joint extension. For a pair of subsystems, with one of the given subsystem states pure, a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a joint extension and the form of all joint extensions (unique for almost all cases) are given. For a pair of subsystems with non-pure subsystem states, some classes of examples of joint extensions are given where non-uniqueness of joint extensions prevails.

description: The Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries provide a range of recreational and aesthetic amenities, such as swimming, fishing, boating, wildlife viewing, and scenic vistas. Living in close proximity to the Bay improves access to these amenities and should be capitalized into local housing markets. We investigate these impacts in the largest hedonic analysis of water quality ever completed, with over 200,000 property sales across 14 Maryland counties. We use a spatially explicit water quality dataset, along with a wealth of landscape, economic, geographic, and demographic variables. These data allow a comprehensive exploration of the value of water quality, while controlling for a multitude of other influences. We also estimate several variants of the models most popular in current literature, with a focus on the temporal average of water quality. In comparing 1 year and 3 year averages, the 3 year averages generally have a larger implicit price. Overall, results indicate that water quality improvements in the Bay, such as those required by EPA’s Total Maximum Daily Load, could yield significant benefits to waterfront and near-waterfront homeowners.

description: Introduction: Breast enlargement occurs commonly in term female neonates under the influence of maternal oestrogen. Neonatal mastitis results when there is a superadded bacterial infection on this physiologic neonatal breast enlargement with 50 to 70% of cases progressing to become breast abscess. One of the long term complications of neonatal breast abscess is poorly developed breast during and after puberty. Long term follows up of patients managed for neonatal mastitis and breast abscess is scarce. Case report: We present a 12year old Nigerian female adolescent who presented with underdeveloped right breast following poorly managed neonatal right breast abscess. The hormonal study, Chest X-ray, ultrasonography and clinical examination revealed no other abnormality. The patient was reassured and offered cosmetic measures as a coping strategy while awaiting definitive surgical correction.Conclusion: Underdeveloped and asymmetric breast is a common and traditionally serious long term complication of neonatal mastitis and neonatal abscess.

description: Cosmic rays have been observed up to energies $10^8$ times larger than those of the best particle accelerators. Studies of astrophysical particles (hadrons, neutrinos and photons) at their highest observed energies have implications for fundamental physics as well as astrophysics. Thus, the cosmic high energy frontier is the nexus to new particle physics. This overview discusses recent advances being made in the physics and astrophysics of cosmic rays and cosmic gamma-rays at the highest observed energies as well as the related physics and astrophysics of very high energy cosmic neutrinos. These topics touch on questions of grand unification, violation of Lorentz invariance, as well as Planck scale physics and quantum gravity.

Absence of a True Vortex-Glass Phase above the Bragg Glass Transition Line in Bi-2212

description: In magnetic measurements on Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+δ}$ (Bi-2212) single crystals, a general peak with a dynamical feature on both $S-H$ and $S-T$ curves was found with S the magnetic relaxation rate. At higher fields, the characteristic exponent $μ$ becomes negative, together with the positive curvature of $logE$ vs. $ logj$ and the scaling based on the 2D vortex glass theory or plastic creep theory, we conclude that the vortex motion above the second peak is plastic when $j\to 0$ and there is no vortex glass phase at finite temperatures in Bi-2212. The peak of S is then explained as the crossover between different meta-stable vortex states.

description: Underground storage tanks (USTs) containing petroleum and hazardous substances are ubiquitous. Accidental releases of these substances can present risks to local residents and the environment. The purpose of this paper is to develop monetized estimates of the benefits of preventing and cleaning up UST releases, as reflected in house values. We focus on 17 of the most high-profile UST releases in the United States with release discovery and other milestone events occurring at different points between 1985 and 2013. These data are the broadest analyzed for property value impacts of UST releases, as previous hedonic studies of USTs focused only on a single county, city, or subset of counties within a state. We employ a two-step methodology in which (i) site specific hedonic regressions are estimated using a difference-in-differences approach, and then (ii) an internal meta-analysis of the resulting estimates is conducted. The spatial and temporal variation among the 17 sites improves our identification of the treatment effects by reducing local idiosyncratic biases; thus providing greater confidence to a causal interpretation of the estimated average price effects. The results suggest significant heterogeneity in the price effects across sites, but on average reveal a 3% to 6% depreciation upon the discovery of a high profile release, and a similar appreciation after cleanup. These average effects diminish with distance, extending out to 2 or 3km from the site.
Non-Abelian String Junctions as Confined Monopoles

description: Various dynamical regimes associated with confined monopoles in the Higgs phase of N=2 two-flavor QCD are studied. The microscopic model we deal with has the SU(2)xU(1) gauge group, with a Fayet-Iliopoulos term of the U(1) factor, and large and (nearly) degenerate mass terms of the matter hypermultiplets. We present a complete quasiclassical treatment of the BPS sector of this model, including the full set of the first-order equations, derivations of all relevant zero modes, and derivation of an effective low-energy theory for the corresponding collective coordinates. The macroscopic description is provided by a CP(1) model with or without twisted mass. The confined monopoles -- string junctions of the microscopic theory -- are mapped onto BPS kinks of the CP(1) model. The string junction is 1/4 BPS. Masses and other characteristics of the confined monopoles are matched with those of the CP(1)-model kinks. The matching demonstrates the occurrence of an anomaly in the monopole central charge in 4D Yang-Mills theory. We study what becomes of the confined monopole in the bona fide non-Abelian limit of degenerate mass terms where a global SU(2) symmetry is restored. The solution of the macroscopic model is known e.g. from the mirror description of the CP(1) model. The monopoles, aka CP(1)-model kinks, are stabilized by nonperturbative dynamics of the CP(1) model. We explain an earlier rather puzzling observation of a correspondence between the BPS kink spectrum in the CP(1) model and the Seiberg-Witten solution.

description: Hubei Province is one of the bases of commodity grain production in China and the major province of grain transfer, which has made an important contribution to the protection of national food security. According to the development demand of grain industry in Hubei Province and the national development plan of grain e-commerce, this paper analyzes the development trend of grain e-commerce in Hubei Province, and expounds the main factors restricting the transformation and upgrading of grain circulation mode in Hubei Province: lack of e-commerce talents; risks for food enterprises to conduct transactions in the platform-type e-commerce; risks in the security of third-party payment. Finally, this paper points out the effective ways of further development of grain e-commerce in Hubei Province.

description: Using 2d3v code LCODE, the numerical simulation of nonlinear wakefield excitation in plasma by shaped relativistic electron bunch with charge distribution, which increases according to Gaussian charge distribution up to the maximum value, and then decreases sharply to zero, has been performed. Transformer ratio, as the ratio of the maximum accelerating field to the maximum decelerating field inside the bunch, and accelerating the wakefield have been investigated taking into account nonlinearity of the wakefield. The dependence of the transformer ratio and the maximum accelerating field on the length of the bunch was investigated with a constant charge of the bunch. It was taken into account that the length of the nonlinear wakefield increases with increasing length of the bunch. It is shown that the transformer ratio reaches its maximum value for a certain length of the bunch. The maximum value of the transformer ratio reaches six as due to the profiling of the bunch, and due to the non-linearity of the wakefield.
