Sensitivity of the particle size determined inline by Photon Density Wave Spectroscopy with respect to sample properties and measurement settings during emulsion copolymerization r... by Usue Olatz Aspiazu, Sebastian Zimmermann, Marvin Münzberg, Jose Ramon Leiza, Maria Paulis

“…It is investigated how the distances between the emission and detection fibers together with the laser modulation frequencies, and uncertainties of the input parameters (refractive index, density, and solids content of the dispersed phase) needed for data analysis affect the reduced scattering coefficients and particle diameters obtained from inline PDWS measurements. The seeded semibatch emulsion copolymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA, 51 w-%), butyl acrylate (BA, 47 w-%), and methacrylic acid (MAA, 2 w-%) is used as a model system. …”

Influence of Cultural and Pest Management Practices on Performance of Runner, Spanish, and Virginia Market Types in North Carolina by Bridget R. Lassiter, David L. Jordan, Gail G. Wilkerson, Barbara B. Shew, Rick L. Brandenburg

“…In separate experiments, research was conducted to determine response of runner, Spanish, and Virginia market types to calcium sulfate and inoculation with Bradyrhizobium at planting, planting and digging dates, planting patterns, and seeding rates. In other experiments, control of thrips (Frankliniella spp.) using aldicarb, southern corn rootworm (Diabrotica undecimpunctata Howardi) using chlorpyrifos, eclipta (Eclipta prostrata L.) using threshold-based postemergence herbicides, and leaf spot disease (caused by the fungi Cercospora arachidicola and Cercosporidium personatum) fungicide programs was compared in these market types. …”

Digestate plus chlorella: Important alternative biotechnologies for soils and agricultural production in the context of climate change by Vozhehova Rayisa, Petrenko Svіtlana, Kholmurodova Dilafruz, Tursunova Gulmira

“…The paper presents the results of the effect of a suspension culture of living cells of the microalga Chlorella vulgaris, as well as a suspension preparation of Chlorella vulgaris grown on digestate, on changes in the chemical composition of sand and on the sowing qualities of winter wheat seeds of the Shestopalovka variety. A high positive correlation was established between the length of roots and coleoptiles of winter wheat seedlings of the Shestopalovka variety (r = 0.86) in the variant with an aqueous concentration of the suspension “Chlorella with Digestat”.…”

The Unity of Space in Kant’s Pre-Critical Philosophy by Dai Heide

“…In particular, I argue that Kant sees the unity of space as grounded in the cosmological unity of the world of substances, which is itself rooted in the divine conservation of all substances in relations of mutual causal dependence. I contend that the seeds of this view are present in the late 1740s and 1750s, but that this view receives its fullest and most complete expression in the 1770 Inaugural Dissertation. …”

The moral problem is a Hume problem by Green Karen

“…This paper returns to Locke's earlier attempt to provide an empirically adequate account of morality and the debate his attempt generated. It argues that the seeds of a more adequate, naturalistic account of the metaphysics and epistemology of morals than that developed by either Locke or Hume can already be found in aspects of Locke's Essay and in the defence of his views published by Catharine Trotter Cockburn. …”

Fundamental limits to the generation of highly displaced bright squeezed light using linear optics and parametric amplifiers by Steve M. Young, Daniel Soh

“…Here we present a comparative theoretical analysis for generating a highly displaced squeezed light from a linear optical method—a beamsplitter mixing a squeezed vacuum and a strong coherent state—and well-studied parametric amplification methods including an optical parametric oscillator, an optical parametric amplifier, and a dissipative optomechanical squeezer seeded with coherent states. We show that the quality of highly displaced squeezed states that can be generated using these methods is limited on a fundamental level by the physical mechanism utilized; across all methods there are significant trade-offs between displacement, squeezing, and overall uncertainty. …”
