TL;DR: In this article, the authors identify a submodel within the Skyrme-type low-energy effective action which does have a Bogomolny bound and exact Bogomolnny solutions, and therefore, at least at the classical level, reproduces the nuclear masses by construction.

TL;DR: Dietary spatial patterns were best revealed by the relative biomass and energy content methods of diet analysis, whereas the frequency of occurrence and relative biomass methods were most appropriate for investigating variation in trophic diversity.
Abstract: 1We reviewed worldwide spatial patterns in the food habits of the brown bear Ursus arctos in relation to geographical (latitude, longitude, altitude) and environmental (temperature, snow cover depth and duration, precipitation, primary productivity) variables.
2We collected data from 28 studies on brown bear diet based on faecal analysis, covering the entire geographical range of this widely distributed large carnivore. We analysed separately four data sets based on different methods of diet assessment.
3Temperature and snow conditions were the most important factors determining the composition of brown bear diet. Populations in locations with deeper snow cover, lower temperatures and lower productivity consumed significantly more vertebrates, fewer invertebrates and less mast. Trophic diversity was positively correlated with temperature, precipitation and productivity but negatively correlated with the duration of snow cover and snow depth. Brown bear populations from temperate forest biomes had the most diverse diet. In general, environmental factors were more explicative of diet than geographical variables.
4Dietary spatial patterns were best revealed by the relative biomass and energy content methods of diet analysis, whereas the frequency of occurrence and relative biomass methods were most appropriate for investigating variation in trophic diversity.
5Spatial variation in brown bear diet is the result of environmental conditions, especially climatic factors, which affect the nutritional and energetic requirements of brown bears as well as the local availability of food. The trade-off between food availability on the one hand, and nutritional and energetic requirements on the other hand, determines brown bear foraging decisions. In hibernating species such as the brown bear, winter severity seems to play a role in determining foraging strategies. Large-scale reviews of food habits should be based on several measures of diet composition, with special attention to those methods reflecting the energetic value of food.

TL;DR: The application of the stochastic genetic algorithm in conjunction with the deterministic Powell search to analysis of the multicomponent powder EPR spectra based on computer simulation allows for automated extraction of the magnetic parameters and relative abundances of the component signals, from the nonlinear least-squares fitting of experimental spectra, with minimum outside intervention.
Abstract: The application of the stochastic genetic algorithm (GA) in conjunction with the deterministic Powell search to analysis of the multicomponent powder EPR spectra based on computer simulation is described. This approach allows for automated extraction of the magnetic parameters and relative abundances of the component signals, from the nonlinear least-squares fitting of experimental spectra, with minimum outside intervention. The efficiency and robustness of GA alone and its hybrid variant with the Powell method was demonstrated using complex simulated and real EPR data sets. The unique capacity of the genetic algorithm for locating global minima, subsequently refined by the Powell method, allowed for successful fitting of the spectra. The influence of the population size, mutation, and crossover rates on the performance of GA was also investigated.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed properties of non-Hermitian matrices of size M constructed as square submatrices of unitary random matrices, distributed according to the Haar measure.
Abstract: We analyse properties of non-Hermitian matrices of size M constructed as square submatrices of unitary (orthogonal) random matrices of size N >M , distributed according to the Haar measure. In this way we define ensembles of random matrices and study the statistical properties of the spectrum located inside the unit circle. In the limit of large matrices, this ensemble is characterized by the ratio M /N . For the truncated CUE we analytically derive the joint density of eigenvalues and all correlation functions. In the strongly non-unitary case universal Ginibre behaviour is found. For N -M fixed and N to the universal resonance-width distribution with N -M open channels is recovered.

TL;DR: In this article, a new calibration scheme, which is called facet calibration, is presented to obtain deep high-resolution LOFAR High Band Antenna images using the Dutch part of the array.
Abstract: LOFAR, the Low-Frequency Array, is a powerful new radio telescope operating between 10 and 240 MHz. LOFAR allows detailed sensitive high-resolution studies of the low-frequency radio sky. At the same time LOFAR also provides excellent short baseline coverage to map diffuse extended emission. However, producing highquality deep images is challenging due to the presence of direction-dependent calibration errors, caused by imperfect knowledge of the station beam shapes and the ionosphere. Furthermore, the large data volume and presence of station clock errors present additional difficulties. In this paper we present a new calibration scheme, which we name facet calibration, to obtain deep high-resolution LOFAR High Band Antenna images using the Dutch part of the array. This scheme solves and corrects the direction-dependent errors in a number of facets that cover the observed field of view. Facet calibration provides close to thermal noise limited images for a typical 8 hr observing run at similar to 5. resolution, meeting the specifications of the LOFAR Tier-1 northern survey.
