Quantum Monte Carlo Study of Disordered Fermions
We study a strongly correlated fermionic model with attractive interactions
in the presence of disorder in two spatial dimensions. Our model has been
designed so that it can be solved using the recently discovered meron-cluster
approach. Although the model is unconventional it has the same symmetries of
the Hubbard model. Since the naive algorithm is inefficient, we develop a new
algorithm by combining the meron-cluster technique with the directed-loop
update. This combination allows us to compute the pair susceptibility and the
winding number susceptibility accurately. We find that the s-wave
superconductivity, present in the clean model, does not disappear until the
disorder reaches a temperature dependent critical strength. The critical
behavior as a function of disorder close to the phase transition belongs to the
Berezinsky-Kosterlitz-Thouless universality class as expected. The fermionic
degrees of freedom, although present, do not appear to play an important role
near the phase transition.Comment: published version, more data added to Fig 5 and clarifications in

Zinc Deficiency in Corn
Status of Zinc Deficiency
Corn is the only field crop presently grown in Kentucky that has shown zinc-deficiency symptoms and that has definitely given a response to zinc applications. Isolated instances of zinc deficiency have been reported from nearly every area of the state. However, the difficulty appears to be more prevalent in soils of the central Bluegrass and the western Pennyrile regions.
Considerable variation in respect to zinc deficiency has occurred within these regions, characterized by no consistent pattern. Corn producers in these areas particularly should watch this crop closely for deficiency symptoms during the period 4 to 6 weeks following planting
Phytoplankton Relationships to Water Quality in Lake Drummond and Two Drainage Ditches
A twelve-month phytoplankton study was conducted in Lake Drummond and Washington and Jericho Ditches from December 1988 to November 1989. Four dominant phytoplankton groups were identified at these sites. These were the Bacillariophyceae, Cyanophyceae, Cryptophyceae and an autotrophic picoplankton component. Over the past 20 years there has been a decrease in the mean pH levels of Lake Drummond and the replacement of one its former major components, the Chlorophyceae, by the Cyanophyceae. Based on water quality analysis results and species diversity indices, Lake Drummond is classified as in an early eutrophic stage of development
Agronomy Notes, no. 1
This is the first issue of Agronomy Notes. The Agronomy Department, University of Kentucky, expects to use this publication to inform county agents, other agricultural workers, and leaders on current progress in soils & crops work. The Kentucky Experiment Station will be an important source of information. Information may be drawn from other research. Field trials and observations that show useful information may be reported. The emphasis will be on short timely topics
How to Manage Stored Grain
Spoilage, shrinkage and contamination in farm-stored grains are all costly to the owner. They result in weight losses, heavy market discounts when the grain is sold and loss in palatability as a livestock feed. When these losses occur, the discounts may be anywhere from a few cents to more than a dollar a bushel even for grain that looks all right without close inspection
