High Statistics Analysis using Anisotropic Clover Lattices: (IV) Volume Dependence of Light Hadron Masses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The volume dependence of the octet baryon masses and relations among them are explored with Lattice QCD. Calculations are performed with n_f=2+1 clover fermion discretization in four lattice volumes, with spatial extent L ~ 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 and 3.9 fm, with

Strategic Design of Public Food Procurement to Leverage Positive Food Systems Outcomes: A Framework of Actions

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There is substantial potential for the procurement of food by public institutions to contribute to Sustainable Development across multiple environmental, social, and economic outcomes. In this study we used theories of policy instrumentation and learning to analyse global guidance for designing public food procurement instruments to leverage ...

The antimicrobial activity of oil-in-water microemulsions is predicted by their position within the microemulsion stability zone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
It has been shown previously that thermodynamically stable oil-in-water microemulsions have significant antimicrobial activity against planktonic cells and biofilm cells over short periods of exposure. It was the aim of this study to identify whether the

Ethnography in TESOL

open access: yesTESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Contemporary research in TESOL spans a range of ethnographic approaches from ethnography of communication and language socialization to narrative inquiry, critical ethnography, autoethnography, and digital ethnography. The foci of ethnographic work have evolved from earlier work focusing on interactional approaches that examined how L2 ...

Test of SU(3) Symmetry in Hyperon Semileptonic Decays

open access: yes, 2013
Existing analyzes of baryon semileptonic decays indicate the presence of a small SU(3) symmetry breaking in hyperon semileptonic decays, but to provide evidence for SU(3) symmetry breaking, one would need a relation similar to the Gell-Mann Okubo(GMO ...

Estimating Causal Effects With Observational Data: Guidelines for Agricultural and Applied Economists

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Most research questions in agricultural and applied economics are causal in nature: they study how changes in one or more variables (such as policies, prices or weather) affect one or more other variables (e.g., income, crop yields or pollution).

The Gell-Mann -- Okubo mass relation among baryons from fully-dynamical mixed-action lattice QCD

open access: yes, 2006
We explore the Gell-Mann--Okubo mass relation among the octet baryons using fully-dynamical, mixed-action (domain-wall on rooted-staggered) lattice QCD calculations at a lattice spacing of b ~ 0.125 fm and pion masses of m_pi ~ 290 MeV, 350 MeV, 490 MeV ...

Will European Consumers and Stakeholders accept New Genomic Techniques (NGTs) in Food Production? Les consommateurs et les parties prenantes européens accepteront‐ils les nouvelles techniques génomiques (NTG) dans la production alimentaire ? Werden europäische Verbraucher und Interessengruppen neue genomische Verfahren (NGV) in der Lebensmittelproduktion akzeptieren?

open access: yesEuroChoices, EarlyView.
Summary New Genomic Techniques (NGTs) can be an important tool to achieve the goals set out in the European Green Deal like food security, environmental sustainability and climate change adaptation. However, the success of NGT‐derived products in the market depends on their acceptance by consumers and stakeholders.

Implementing the National Bioengineered Food Disclosure Standard [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In July 2016, the National Bioengineered Food Disclosure Law was passed to establish a mandatory national system for disclosing the presence of genetically-engineered material in food (GMOs). The federal law preempts state and local initiatives to create

Avoiding Corporate Greenwashing? Sustainability Silence Narratives in the Agri‐Food Industry

open access: yesBusiness Ethics, the Environment &Responsibility, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aim of this article is to shed more light on the reasons underlying companies' under‐communication or lack of communication to stakeholders about sustainability achievements in the agri‐food sector. A qualitative study based on 34 semi‐structured interviews with respondents from this sector shows the predominance of a rationale of ...
