description: This study concerns the mitigation of risk based on advances in food product traceability technology. A case study of the supply, processing and distribution of wild catch tuna on the island of Sulawesi in Indonesia provides the backdrop for describing and analyzing risk agents and how they are interrelated in the supply chain. The purpose of this study is to develop an inductive, empirically based model concerning risk mitigation in seafood supply networks. It builds upon the seminal works of Forrester’s understanding of information distortion, Alderson’s transvection model and Thompson’s interdependency theory.

Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay with R-parity Violation
Creators: name: Uehara, Yosuke

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We consider recently observed neutrinoless double beta decay in the context of the minimal supersymmetric standard model with R-parity violating couplings lambda^{'}. We observe that most of the current experimental bounds on the R-parity violating couplings do not exclude the possibility that the neutrinoless double beta decay is caused by R-parity violation. But if we consider K-bar{K} oscillation, we observe that we have to make the R-parity violating couplings generation-dependent to accomodate with the observed neutrinoless double beta decay. And furthermore, we need some mechanism to cancel the contribution to K-bar{K} mixing from a large R-parity violating coupling. We realized this cancellation by assuming that the first- and the second- generation of quark sector do not couple with the first-generation lepton sector by R-parity violating couplings except the term W=lambda_{111}^{'} L_{1} Q_{1} D_{1}^{c}, which is responsible for the observed neutrinoless double beta decay.

description: Footwear and physiological workload have been reported to impact postural stability. Analyses of postural strategies during sensory organisation test (SOT) can aid better understanding of postural control behaviour. The paper reports previously unreported postural strategy scores from each SOT condition, in various types of footwear when exposed to different workloads from two different completed studies. Study 1 analysed postural strategies in alternative footwear [Crocs (CC), flip-flops (FF) and Vibram five-finger (VIB)] before and after a low-intensity workload (n = 18; age: 22.9 ± 2.8 years; height: 179 ± 6.0 cm; mass: 81.3 ± 8.8 kg) and study 2 in military footwear [standard tactical boot (STD) and minimalist tactical boot (MIN)] before and after a high-intensity workload (n = 16; age: 26.63 ± 3.93 years; height: 178.04 ± 6.2 cm; mass: 87 ± 12.4 kg). Findings from the current analyses revealed significant differences in footwear type, workload, and SOT conditions. Design characteristics on alternative footwear and the low intensity workload were not sufficient to cause a significant shift from a predominant ankle to hip strategy. However, design characteristics of STD and the high-intensity workload did cause a shift from an ankle to hip strategy. During SOT conditions where all three types of feedback was readily available (visual, vestibular and somatosensory), an ankle strategy was used to maintain postural stability, while more reliance on hip strategy existed when sensory feedback was absent or in conflict.

description: Abstract: Established around 575 BC, Emporion was a Greek colonial enclave in north-east Iberia and hence constitutes a good context to study Mediterranean innovations and their adaptation with indigenous technologies. Here, we present an analytical study of the archaeometallurgical assemblage from a workshop context dated to the first occupational moment of Emporion’s Neapolis (second half of the sixth century BC), including slag and technical ceramics. We aimed at reverse engineering the copper and tin bronze metallurgical technologies at the site. The results allow the identification of copper smelting and melting, and a variety of bronze alloying techniques, together with iron smelting and forging. The use of Fe-rich copper ores with BaO, ZnO and PbO impurities is consistent with the exploitation of local sources, preceding the diversification of raw materials documented for later phases. The co-occurrence of co-smelting, cementation and co-melting as bronze making technologies is discussed with reference to parameters of efficiency and cost-effectiveness and contextualised in the broader colonial interaction, providing pointers for future comparative work and discussion. The early use of metallic tin for bronze production at the site supports a Mediterranean origin for this innovation in Iberia.

description: Food and Agribusiness Multinational Enterprises (F&A MNEs) increasingly wish to source from smallholders to secure and stabilize the supply of agricultural commodities in high value-adding supply chains, while contributing positively to smallholder livelihood. In the literature we found that many F&A MNEs have been involved in supporting smallholder farming systems in developing countries for a long time. However, these projects have principally been driven by Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) strategies. Moreover, despite many pilots to include smallholders in high value-adding supply chains, scaling or scaling up successful pilots has so far proven elusive. The aim of the present article is to identify the critical success factors (CSFs) that can help F&A MNEs to design and implement sourcing strategies for sustainable smallholder supply from a business perspective, and to scale up successful pilot projects from a business perspective.

description: Finite-size effects in the free energy density for Abelian (anti-)self-dual gluon field are investigated within $SU(3)$ gluodynamics. In particular, the role of gluon quasi-zero modes is studied. The effective potential is calculated within the framework of zeta function regularization for finite spherical four-dimensional region of radius $R$ in Euclidean space-time. In order to obtain the correct strong-field behavior of the effective potential which is determined by the asymptotic freedom, the quasi-zero gluon modes have to be treated beyond one-loop approximation in line with the argumentaion of Leutwyler. Conditions for appearance of the global minimum of the free energy density at finite nonzero values of both field strength and region size are discussed.

description: Stem cell and cell reprogramming technology represent a rapidly growing field in regenerative medicine. A number of novel neural reprogramming methods have been established, using pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) or direct reprogramming, to efficiently derive specific neuronal cell types for therapeutic applications. Both in vitro and in vivo cellular reprogramming provide diverse therapeutic pathways for modeling neurological diseases and injury repair. In particular, the retina has emerged as a promising target for clinical application of regenerative medicine. Herein, we review the potential of neuronal reprogramming to develop regenerative strategy, with a particular focus on treating retinal degenerative diseases and discuss future directions and challenges in the field.

description: We have discovered about 70 very faint dwarf galaxies in the Fornax Cluster. These dSphs candidates follow the same magnitude-surface brightness relation as their counterparts in the Local Group, and even extend it to fainter limits. The faintest dSph candidate in our sample has an absolute magnitude of M_V = -8.8 mag and a central surface brightness of mu_V = 27 mag/arcsec^2. There exists a tight color-magnitude relation for the early-type galaxies in Fornax that extends from the giant to the dwarf regime. The faint-end slope of the luminosity function of the early-type dwarfs is flat (alpha = -1.1+/-0.1), contrary to the results obtained by Kambas et al. (2000).

description: Using a discrete choice experiment, we analyze consumer preferences and willingness-to-pay (WTP) for milk products with differing quality attributes. In doing so, in-person surveys were administered in three retail stores located in Honduras. The main attribute analyzed was the “educational component”, which was used to indicate the participation of Zamorano University students in milk production and processing, where the revenue from the commercialization of the products is reinvested in the education of future low-income students with strong academic and professional potential. In general, consumers are willing to pay a price premium for milk products carrying the education label. Moreover, respondents preferred natural milk with low-fat content. Consumers also expressed price premiums for bottled milk products and a medium shelf life compared to milk packaged in plastic bags or shelf life longer than sixteen days, perhaps because of a perception of lack of freshness.

On the asymptotically linear Hénon problem

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Analysis of PDEs (math.AP)

description: In this paper we consider the Hénon problem in the ball with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We study the asymptotic profile of radial solutions and then deduce the exact computation of their Morse index when the exponent $p$ is close to $1$. Next we focus on the planar case and describe the asymptotic profile of some solutions which minimize the energy among functions which are invariant for reflection and rotations of a given angle $2π/n$. By considerations based on the Morse index we see that, depending on the values of $α$ and $n$, such least energy solutions can be radial, or nonradial and different one from another.

description: Airborne mineral aerosols emitted in high-latitude regions can impact radiative forcing, biogeochemical cycling of metals, and local air quality. The impact of dust emissions in these regions may change rapidly, as warming temperatures can increase mineral dust production and source regions. As there exists little research on mineral dust emissions in high-latitude regions, we have performed the first study of the physico-chemical properties of mineral dust emitted from a sub-Arctic proglacial dust source, using a method tailored to the remote conditions of the Canadian North. Soil and aerosol samples (PM10 and deposited mineral dust) were collected in May 2018 near the Ä’äy Chù (Slims River), a site exhibiting strong dust emissions. WHO air quality thresholds were exceeded at several receptor sites near the dust source, indicating a negative impact on local air quality. Notably, temporally averaged particle size distributions of PM10 were very fine as compared to those measured at more well-characterized, low-latitude dust sources. In addition, mineralogy and elemental composition of ambient PM10 were characterized; PM10 elemental composition was enriched in trace elements as compared to dust deposition, bulk soil samples, and the fine soil fractions (d 10, dust deposition, and both fine and bulk soil fractions, as well as of meteorological factors measured during our campaign, we propose that the primary mechanisms for dust emissions from the Ä’äy Chù Valley are the rupture of clay coatings on particles and/or the release of resident fine particulate matter.

description: Abstract: Rationale: Dopamine D2-like receptors (D2R) are important drug targets in schizophrenia and Parkinson’s disease, but D2R ligands also cause cognitive inflexibility such as poor reversal learning. The specific role of D2R in reversal learning remains unclear. Objectives: We tested the hypotheses that D2R agonism impairs reversal learning by blocking negative feedback and that antagonism of D1-like receptors (D1R) impairs learning from positive feedback. Methods: Male Lister Hooded rats were trained on a novel visual reversal learning task. Performance on “probe trials”, during which the correct or incorrect stimulus was presented with a third, probabilistically rewarded (50% of trials) and therefore intermediate stimulus, revealed individual learning curves for the processes of positive and negative feedback. The effects of D2R and D1R agonists and antagonists were evaluated. A separate cohort was tested on a spatial probabilistic reversal learning (PRL) task after D2R agonism. Computational reinforcement learning modelling was applied to choice data from the PRL task to evaluate the contribution of latent factors. Results: D2R agonism with quinpirole dose-dependently impaired both visual reversal and PRL. Analysis of the probe trials on the visual task revealed a complete blockade of learning from negative feedback at the 0.25 mg/kg dose, while learning from positive feedback was intact. Estimated parameters from the model that best described the PRL choice data revealed a steep and selective decrease in learning rate from losses. D1R antagonism had a transient effect on the positive probe trials. Conclusions: D2R stimulation impairs reversal learning by blocking the impact of negative feedback.

description: The effect of antiferromagnetic interchain coupling in alternating spin (1,1/2) chains is studied by mean of spin wave theory and density matrix renormalization group(DMRG). Two limiting cases are investigated, the two-leg ladder and its two dimensional (2D) generalization. For the 2D case, spin wave approximation predicts a smooth dimensional crossover keeping the ground state ordered, whereas in the ladder case the DMRG results show a gapped ground state for any $J_{\perp}>0$. Furthermore, the behavior of the correlation functions closely resemble the uniform spin-1/2 ladder. However, for small $J_{\perp}$, the gap behaves quadratically as $Δ\sim0.6 J^2_{\perp}$. Similarly to uniform spin chains, it is conjectured an analogous spin gap behavior for an arbitrary number of mixed spin chains

description: Dynamical quantum phase transitions (DQPTs) represent a counterpart in non-equilibrium quantum time evolution of thermal phase transitions at equilibrium, where real time becomes analogous to a control parameter such as temperature. In quenched quantum systems, recently the occurrence of DQPTs has been demonstrated, both with theory and experiment, to be intimately connected to changes of topological properties. Here, we contribute to broadening the systematic understanding of this relation between topology and DQPTs to multi-orbital and disordered systems. Specifically, we provide a detailed ergodicity analysis to derive criteria for DQPTs in all spatial dimensions, and construct basic counter-examples to the occurrence of DQPTs in multi-band topological insulator models. As a numerical case study illustrating our results, we report on microscopic simulations of the quench dynamics in the Harper-Hofstadter model. Furthermore, going gradually from multi-band to disordered systems, we approach random disorder by increasing the (super) unit cell within which random perturbations are switched on adiabatically. This leads to an intriguing order of limits problem which we address by extensive numerical calculations on quenched one-dimensional topological insulators and superconductors with disorder.

description: Technology is an endless evolving expression in modern era, which increased security concerns and pushed us to create cyber environment. A National Cyber Security Strategy (NCSS) of a country reflects the state of that country's cyber strength which represents the aim and vision of the cyber security of a country. Formerly, researchers have worked on NCSS by comparing NCSS between different nations for international collaboration and harmonization and some researchers worked on policy framework for their respective governments. However very insignificant attempts had been made to assess the strategic strength of NCSS of Bangladesh by performing cross comparisons on NCSS of different Nations. Therefore, the motive of this research is to evaluate the robustness of the existing cyber security strategy of Bangladesh in comparison with some of the most technologically advanced countries in Asian continent and others like USA, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia and India in order to keep the NCSS of Bangladesh up-to-date.

description: Combining X-ray data from the ROSAT PSPC and optical data drawn from the literature, we examine in detail the relationship between the X-ray and optical properties of X-ray bright galaxy groups. We find a relationship between optical luminosity and X-ray temperature consistent with that expected from self-similar scaling of galaxy systems, L_B \propto T^{1.6 +/- 0.2}. The self-similar form and continuity of the L_B : T relation from clusters to groups and the limited scatter seen in this relation, implies that the star formation efficiency is rather similar in all these systems. We find that the bright extended X-ray components associated with many central galaxies in groups appear to be more closely related to the group than the galaxy itself, and we suggest that these are group cooling flows rather than galaxy halos. In addition we find that the optical light in these groups appears to be more centrally concentrated than the light in clusters. We also use the optical and X-ray data to investigate whether early or late type galaxies are primarily responsible for preheating in groups. Using three different methods, we conclude that spiral galaxies appear to play a comparable role to early types in the preheating of the intragroup medium. This tends to favour models in which the preheating arises primarily from galaxy winds rather than AGN, and implies that spirals have played a significant role in the metal enrichment of the intragroup medium.

description: Abstract: Space penetrators are a potential method of inserting instrumentation onto ice-covered bodies in the solar system. Part of a study to see whether this is feasible involves numerically simulating impact of the penetrator into ice at impact velocities of a few 100 m/s. In order to do this accurately, it is necessary to have a constitutive model for water ice that is valid at the strain rates and temperatures relevant to impact in the Outer Solar System. This paper reports certain issues and difficulties that arose during a study to obtain this data.

description: Lysophosphatidic acids (LPA) are bioactive radyl hydrocarbon-substituted derivatives of glycerol 3-phosphate. LPA metabolism and signaling are implicated in heritable risk of coronary artery disease. Genetic and pharmacological inhibition of these processes attenuate experimental atherosclerosis. LPA accumulates in atheromas, which may be a consequence of association with low-density lipoproteins (LDL). The source, regulation, and biological activity of LDL-associated LPA are unknown. We examined effects of experimental hyperlipidemia on levels and distribution of circulating LPA in mice. The majority of plasma LPA was associated with albumin in plasma from wild-type mice fed normal chow. LDL-associated LPA was increased in plasma from high-fat western diet fed mice that are genetically prone to hyperlipidemia (LDL receptor knockout or activated PCSK9 overexpressing C57Bl6). Adipose-specific deficiency of the ENPP2 gene encoding the LPA-generating secreted lysophospholipase D autotaxin (ATX) attenuated these western diet-dependent increases in LPA. ATX-dependent increases in LDL-associated LPA were observed in isolated incubated plasma. ATX acted directly on LDL-associated lysophospholipid substrates in vitro. LDL from all human subjects examined contained LPA and was decreased by lipid lowering drug therapies. Human and mouse plasma therefore contains a diet-sensitive LDL-associated LPA pool that might contribute to the cardiovascular disease promoting effects of LPA.

description: Taking the competition and the mutual screening of various bosonic fluctuations in correlated electron systems into account requires an unbiased approach to the many-body problem. One such approach is the self-consistent solution of the parquet equations, whose numerical treatment in lattice systems is however prohibitively expensive. In a recent article it was shown that there exists an alternative to the parquet decomposition of the four-point vertex function, which classifies the vertex diagrams according to the principle of single-boson exchange (SBE) [F. Krien, A. Valli, and M. Capone, arXiv:1907.03581 (2019)]. Here we show that the SBE decomposition leads to a closed set of equations for the Hedin three-leg vertex, the polarization, and the electronic self-energy, which sums self-consistently the diagrams of the Maki-Thompson type. This circumvents the calculation of four-point vertex functions and the inversion of the Bethe-Salpeter equations, which are the two major bottlenecks of the parquet equations. The convergence of the calculation scheme starting from a fully irreducible vertex is demonstrated for the Anderson impurity model.

description: Restoring a sharp light field image from its blurry input has become essential due to the increasing popularity of parallax-based image processing. State-of-the-art blind light field deblurring methods suffer from several issues such as slow processing, reduced spatial size, and a limited motion blur model. In this work, we address these challenging problems by generating a complex blurry light field dataset and proposing a learning-based deblurring approach. In particular, we model the full 6-degree of freedom (6-DOF) light field camera motion, which is used to create the blurry dataset using a combination of real light fields captured with a Lytro Illum camera, and synthetic light field renderings of 3D scenes. Furthermore, we propose a light field deblurring network that is built with the capability of large receptive fields. We also introduce a simple strategy of angular sampling to train on the large-scale blurry light field effectively. We evaluate our method through both quantitative and qualitative measurements and demonstrate superior performance compared to the state-of-the-art method with a massive speedup in execution time. Our method is about 16K times faster than Srinivasan et. al. [22] and can deblur a full-resolution light field in less than 2 seconds.

description: An application of a self-consistent version of RPA to quantum field theory with broken symmetry is presented. Although our approach can be applied to any bosonic field theory, we specifically study the $ϕ^4$ theory in 1+1 dimensions. We show that standard RPA approach leads to an instability which can be removed when going to a superior version,i.e. the renormalized RPA. We present a method based on the so-called charging formula of the many electron problem to calculate the correlation energy and the RPA effective potential.

The morphology-density relation in X-ray bright galaxy groups

description: We have examined the morphological make-up of X-ray bright groups. The brighter galaxies in these groups exhibit clear morphology-density and morphology-radius relations. The group morphology-density relation is offset from the cluster relation in the sense that at a given surface density, X-ray bright groups have a lower spiral fraction. After correcting for projection effects the morphology-3D density relation is still shifted towards fewer spirals for a given 3D density, in comparison with clusters. A simple model which corrects the group data for the effects of projection and for the expected higher merging rate in groups, brings the morphology-density relation into good agreement with that of clusters, suggesting that the relation may be driven by two-body interactions. The fraction of S0 galaxies in these X-ray bright groups is at least as high as that observed in nearby clusters. Given the low velocity dispersion of groups, this indicates that ram pressure stripping is not the dominant mechanism for S0 formation.

description: Abstract: While comorbidity between coronary heart disease (CHD) and depression is evident, it is unclear whether the two diseases have shared underlying mechanisms. We performed a range of analyses in 367,703 unrelated middle-aged participants of European ancestry from UK Biobank, a population-based cohort study, to assess whether comorbidity is primarily due to genetic or environmental factors, and to test whether cardiovascular risk factors and CHD are likely to be causally related to depression using Mendelian randomization. We showed family history of heart disease was associated with a 20% increase in depression risk (95% confidence interval [CI] 16–24%, p < 0.0001), but a genetic risk score that is strongly associated with CHD risk was not associated with depression. An increase of 1 standard deviation in the CHD genetic risk score was associated with 71% higher CHD risk, but 1% higher depression risk (95% CI 0–3%; p = 0.11). Mendelian randomization analyses suggested that triglycerides, interleukin-6 (IL-6), and C-reactive protein (CRP) are likely causal risk factors for depression. The odds ratio for depression per standard deviation increase in genetically-predicted triglycerides was 1.18 (95% CI 1.09–1.27; p = 2 × 10−5); per unit increase in genetically-predicted log-transformed IL-6 was 0.74 (95% CI 0.62–0.89; p = 0.0012); and per unit increase in genetically-predicted log-transformed CRP was 1.18 (95% CI 1.07–1.29; p = 0.0009). Our analyses suggest that comorbidity between depression and CHD arises largely from shared environmental factors. IL-6, CRP and triglycerides are likely to be causally linked with depression, so could be targets for treatment and prevention of depression.
