description: During their late pulsating phase, AGB stars expel most of their mass in the form of massive dusty envelopes, an event that largely controls the composition of interstellar matter. The envelopes, however, are distant and opaque to visible and NIR radiation: Their structure remains poorly known and the mass-loss process poorly understood. Millimeter-wave interferometry is the optimal investigative tool for this purpose. The circumstellar envelope IRC +10 216 and its central star, the C-rich TP-AGB star closest to the Sun, are the best objects for such an investigation. Two years ago, we reported on IRAM 30-m telescope CO(2-1) line emission observations in that envelope (HPBW 11"). We now report much higher angular resolution observations of CO(2-1), CO(1-0), CN(2-1) and C$_4$H(24-23) made with the SMA, PdB and ALMA interferometers (with synthesized half-power beamwidths of 3", 1" and 0.3", respectively). Although the envelope appears more intricate at high resolution, its prevailing structure remains a pattern of thin, nearly concentric shells. Outside the small (r<0.3") dust formation zone, the gas appears to expand radially at a constant velocity, 14.5 km/s, with small turbulent motions. Based on that property, we have reconstructed the 3-D structure of the outer envelope and have derived the gas temperature and density radial profiles in the inner (r<25") envelope. The over-dense shells have spherical or slightly oblate shapes and typically extend over a few steradians, implying isotropic mass loss. The regular spacing of shells in the outer envelope supports the model of a binary star system with a period of 700 years and a near face-on elliptical orbit. The companion fly-by triggers enhanced episodes of mass loss near periastron. The densification of the shell pattern observed in the central part of the envelope suggests a more complex scenario for the last few thousand years.

Publisher: name: The Bovine Practitioner

description: A 200 cow dairy in Northeast Ohio experienced an outbreak of Salmonella typhimurium during the spring of1994. In addition to human health implications, Salmonella outbreaks negatively impact herd health and productivity. As the United States Department of Agriculture institutes changes in the current inspection system to focus on microbial contamination of food, a greater emphasis will be placed on controlling the disease agent on the farm. This challenges both veterinarians and farmers to work as a team to institute management changes that will result in lowering the number of pathogenic organisms associated with foods of animal origin prior to their entry into the food chain. This paper reviews this Salmonella outbreak, offers management suggestions to control the disease agent, and describes how the problem was resolved on this farm.

description: In June 1994, a study began on a herd of cattle in Canada. The herd was visited 5 times. A second herd was examined in October 1994, and visited in spring and autumn until October 1997. A further 10 herds were examined at least once in a supplementary study. Front feet of all cows and hind feet of most were examined and a detailed record of lesions observed was made. Sandcracks were classified into 5 categories (types 1 to 5), depending on the location of the lesion. The degree of severity of the sandcrack was defined by its width (2 to 10 mm). Several possible causes were identified, including increased body weight, the presence of horizontal defects and bending of the dorsal surface of the claw. Not all cracks originated from cracks at the coronary band (type 1). In 2 groups of heifers it was found that the rate of claw growth was approximately 0.46 cm/month during the summer and 0.32 cm/month during the winter. Applying these growth rates to the position of a horizontal defect relative to the skin/horn junction permitted the date on which the defect was formed to be estimated. The incidence of horizontal defects was exceptionally high in some herds of beef cows and was found to vary from 29 to 100% of the cows in 6 of the herds in the study.

Stellar contributors to the hard X-ray background?

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We use simple energetic arguments to estimate the contribution of massive X-ray binaries and supernova remnants to the cosmic X-ray background (XRB) at energies in excess of 2 keV. Recent surveys have shown that AGN probably account for most of the hard XRB (E > 2 keV), but there have been many suggestions that star-forming galaxies could emerge at fainter fluxes and perhaps account for a significant fraction of the soft and hard X-ray energy density. Assuming that the formation rate of massive X-ray binaries (MXRBs) traces the global star-formation rate, we find that their integrated contribution to the hard XRB can be estimated and is shown to be small (at less than the 1% level). Similarly, the integrated flux of SN is also shown to be insignificant, or at most comparable to MXRBs. AGN therefore remain the most viable candidates for producing the hard XRB, unless additional processes can be shown to dominate the global hard X-ray emission in distant starburst galaxies.

description: The research develops a Physiologically-Based Pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model which predicts how nicotine behaves in users of e-cigarettes and traditional cigarette smokers throughout its ADME processes. The model uses health-specific physiological parameters to evaluate the effects of liver disease and obesity and cardiovascular disease and lung disease and neurological disorders on nicotine pharmacokinetics. MATLAB's ODE45 solver runs simulations to create nicotine concentration-time profiles together with steady-state concentrations (Css) and elimination half-life (t½) for all health scenarios. The analysis determines which factors most affect the variability of results between population groups. The research demonstrates that liver disease together with obesity creates major changes in nicotine clearance and storage patterns yet lung and cardiovascular diseases affect how nicotine distributes in the body. The comparison between e-cigarettes and traditional cigarettes produces the most noticeable distinctions when studying patients who have respiratory or cardiovascular diseases. The PBPK framework enables customized risk evaluation for users of nicotine products who have different health conditions thus providing a useful assessment system for regulatory and clinical purposes.
title: Implementing e-portfolios to support formative assessment in early primary education

Subjects: subject: Electronic portfolios in education

description: Implementation of the many recent recommendations for change from the Ministry of Education in British Columbia can be challenging for many educators. In particular, BC’s Education Plan (2015) recommends that educators choose how and when their students can be assessed, students be at the centre of their own learning, there be increased use of and access to technology in educational programs and that parents be encouraged to be more involved in their child’s learning. This paper addresses these issues by exploring the Critical Challenge Question (CCQ) “How can educators implement the use of e-Portfolios to support formative assessment in Early Primary education to support student success?” A Major Project has been developed based on a review of current research. An online resource designed to support Kindergarten teachers who wish to support student success through the implementation of formative assessment using e-Portfolios to communicate learning to parents. The website uses a focus on Kindergarten journal writing to demonstrate how e-Portfolios can help provide useful information to parents to enable them to support their child’s learning. The resource shares the benefits and challenges associated with formative assessment implementation, provides tips on the creation and sharing of e-Portfolios with examples of student progress in emergent writing skills. Feedback from parents regarding e-Portfolio implementation is included. Survey feedback validated the success of the Major Project and suggested that the goals would be achieved. Project limitations included the small size of the sample group and the extra time required to initiate implementation. Future research is required to streamline the process of creating e-Portfolios and to expand the use of these tools to include older grades in different areas.

description: Abstract— Traceback mechanisms are a critical part of the defense against IP spooﬁng and DoS attacks, as well as being of forensic value to law enforcement. Currently proposed IP traceback mechanisms are inadequate to address the traceback problem for the following reasons: they require DDoS victims to gather thousands of packets to reconstruct a single attack path; they do not scale to large scale Distributed DoS attacks; and they do not support incremental deployment. We propose Fast Internet Traceback (FIT), a new packet marking approach that signiﬁcantly improves IP traceback in several dimensions: (1) victims can identify attack paths with high probability after receiving only tens of packets, a reduction of 1–3 orders of magnitude compared to previous packet marking schemes; (2) FIT performs well even in the presence of legacy routers, allowing every FIT-enabled router in path to be identiﬁed; and (3) FIT scales to large distributed attacks with thousands of attackers. Compared with previous packet marking schemes, FIT represents a step forward in performance and deployability.

description: The tunnelling of virtual matter-antimatter pairs from the quantum vacuum in multidimensions is studied. We consider electric backgrounds as a linear combination of a spatial Sauter field and, interchangeably, certain weaker time dependent fields without poles in the complex plane such as the sinusoidal and Gaussian cases. Based on recent geometric considerations within the worldline formalism, we employ the relevant critical points in order to analytically estimate a characteristic threshold for the temporal inhomogeneity. We set appropriate initial conditions and apply additional symmetry constraints in order to determine the classical periodic paths in spacetime. Using these worldline instantons, we compute the corresponding leading order exponential factors showing large dynamical enhancement in general. We work out the main differences caused by the analytic structure of such composite backgrounds and also discuss the case with a strong temporal variation of Sauter-type.

description: The NOT gate that flips a classical bit is ubiquitous in classical information processing. However its quantum analogue, the universal NOT (UNOT) gate that flips a quantum spin in any alignment into its antipodal counterpart is strictly forbidden. Here we explore the connection between this discrepancy and how UNOT gates affect classical and quantum correlations. We show that while a UNOT gate always preserves classical correlations between two spins, it can non-locally increase or decrease their shared discord in ways that allow violation of the data processing inequality. We experimentally illustrate this using a multi-level trapped \Yb ion that allows simulation of anti-unitary operations.

title: Global Optimisation of Multi‐Camera Moving Object Detection
Creators: name: Yan, Y
Publisher: name: University of Liverpool Repository
Year: 2019

description: An important task in intelligent video surveillance is to detect multiple pedestrians. These pedestrians may be occluded by each other in a camera view. To overcome this problem, multiple cameras can be deployed to provide complementary information, and homography mapping has been widely used for the association and fusion of multi‐camera observations. The intersection regions of the foreground projections usually indicate the locations of moving objects. However, many false positives may be generated from the intersections of non‐corresponding foreground regions. In this thesis, an algorithm for multi‐camera pedestrian detection is proposed. The first stage of this work is to propose pedestrian candidate locations on the top view. Two approaches are proposed in this stage. The first approach is a top‐down approach which is based on the probabilistic occupancy map framework. The ground plane is discretized into a grid, and the likelihood of pedestrian presence at each location is estimated by comparing a rectangle, of the average size of the pedestrians standing there, with the foreground silhouettes in all camera views. The second approach is a bottom‐up approach, which is based on the multi‐plane homography mapping. The foreground regions in all camera views are projected and overlaid in the top view according to the multi‐plane homographies and the potential locations of pedestrians are estimated from the intersection regions. In the second stage, where we borrowed the idea from the Quine‐McCluskey (QM) method for logic function minimisation, essential candidates are initially identified, each of which covers at least a significant part of the foreground that is not covered by the other candidates. Then non‐essential candidates are selected to cover the remaining foregrounds by following a repeated process, which alternates between merging redundant candidates and finding emerging essential candidates. Then, an alternative approach to the QM method, the Petrick’s method, is used for finding the minimum set of pedestrian candidates to cover all the foreground regions. These two methods are non‐iterative and can greatly increase the computational speed. No similar work has been proposed before. Experiments on benchmark video datasets have demonstrated the good performance of the proposed algorithm in comparison with other state‐of‐the‐art methods for pedestrian detection.

(®gures 24e, 25h±i)
 Description. Cell elliptical or obovate, 3±6 Mm long, with a longitudinal ventral groove which extends most of the cell length. When squashed, the cell is pliable. Two ¯agella unequal in length emerge from the anterior distal part of the cell; the anterior ¯agellum bent over backwards is as long as the cell and beats sti‚y. The acronematic posterior ¯agellum is about 2.5 ±4 times the cell length, beats actively in the ventral depression and usually lies in the depression. Usually moves by skidding with the anterior ¯agellum beating with a stiOE paddling motion. Cells consume bacteria. Commonly observed in anoxic conditions. Description based on observation of 80 cells.
 Remarks. It would appear that in their description of Carpediemonas membranifera as Percolomonas membranifera, Larsen and Patterson (1990) included two species; one usually measuring 6 Mm or less and the other measuring 6 Mm or more. The type micrograph depicts the smaller species, which now bears the name C. membranifera. It has a relatively long posterior ¯agellum, moves by skidding with the anterior ¯agellum beating in a paddling motion. It was transferred to the new genus Carpediemonas by Ekebom et al. (1996) because unlike con®rmed species in Percolomonas, it had only two ¯agella. Ultrastructural studies (Simpson, unpubl. data) have con®rmed that this is an amitochondriate protist unrelated to Percolomonas. The larger species resembles Cryptobia bialata of Ruinen (1938) and is here referred to as Carpediemonas bialata.
This species has been described from marine sites in Australia and Brazil (Larsen and Patterson, 1990; Ekebom et al., 1996; Bernard et al., 1999). Carpediemonas membranifera is distinguished from C. bialata by its smaller size, the absence of the moving membrane and the relatively long posterior ¯agellum. It consumes bacteria (Larsen and Patterson, 1990; Ekebom et al., 1996) and usually occurs in large numbers with Cafeteria marsupialis and Carpediemonas bialata.

description: Information retrieval from textual data focuses on the construction of vocabularies that contain weighted term tuples. Such vocabularies can then be exploited by various text analysis algorithms to extract new knowledge, e.g., top-k keywords, top-k documents, etc. Top-k keywords are casually used for various purposes, are often computed on-the-fly, and thus must be efficiently computed. To compare competing weighting schemes and database implementations, benchmarking is customary. To the best of our knowledge, no benchmark currently addresses these problems. Hence, in this paper, we present a top-k keywords benchmark, T${}^2$K${}^2$, which features a real tweet dataset and queries with various complexities and selectivities. T${}^2$K${}^2$ helps evaluate weighting schemes and database implementations in terms of computing performance. To illustrate T${}^2$K${}^2$'s relevance and genericity, we successfully performed tests on the TF-IDF and Okapi BM25 weighting schemes, on one hand, and on different relational (Oracle, PostgreSQL) and document-oriented (MongoDB) database implementations, on the other hand.

description: We investigate the quantum recoil force acting on an excited atom close to the surface of a nonreciprocal photonic topological insulator (PTI). The main atomic emission channel is the unidirectional surface-plasmon propagating at the PTI-vacuum interface, and we show that it enables a spontaneous lateral recoil force that scales at short distance as $1/d^4$, where $d$ is the atom-PTI separation. Remarkably, the sign of the recoil force is polarization and orientation-independent, and it occurs in a translation-invariant homogeneous system in thermal equilibrium. Surprisingly, the recoil force persists for very small values of the gyration pseudovector, which, for a biased plasma, corresponds to very low cyclotron frequencies. The ultra-strong recoil force is rooted on the quasi-hyperbolic dispersion of the surface-plasmons. We consider both an initially excited atom and a continuous pump scenario, the latter giving rise to a continuous lateral force whose direction can be changed at will by simply varying the orientation of the biasing magnetic field. Our predictions may be tested in experiments with cold Rydberg atoms and superconducting qubits.
title: The Interaction between Arsenophonus and its Eusocial Host
Creators: name: Drew, GC
Publisher: name: University of Liverpool Repository
Year: 2019

description: Endosymbiotic bacteria of the genus Arsenophonus form associations with a diverse range of arthropod hosts. These symbiotic interactions are varied, ranging from reproductive parasites to coevolving obligate mutualists, and the predominant mode of symbiont transmission within the clade is vertical. Previous metagenomic studies indicate that Arsenophonus forms associations with the European honey bee, Apis mellifera. Despite the evolutionary and ecological significance of Apis mellifera, and the potentially important impacts of Arsenophonus on Apis biology, interactions between these players have remained uncharacterised. This thesis reports Arsenophonus is common within UK populations of A. mellifera and the genetic diversity of circulating strains appears to be low. Phylogenomic analysis confirms the position of the symbiont within the genus Arsenophonus, most closely related to the male-killer strain associated with the parasitoid wasp, Nasonia vitripennis. Epidemiological patterns are detected, with Arsenophonus occurrence varying over space and time. Spatial variation is evident at local scales but infection prevalence remains uniform with larger geography. Conserved seasonal dynamics, with prevalence low in spring and increasing into autumn, hint at the role of an environmental reservoir driving infection dynamics and argue against vertical transmission. The low prevalence of Arsenophonus among solitary Colletes spp. suggests spill over risk is low and associations are uncommon, perhaps mediated by the fixation of another endosymbiont, Wolbachia, in solitary Anthophila populations. FISH analysis indicates Arsenophonus is localised within the A. mellifera gut and forms diffuse infections, however associations are highly dynamic. Infections can be lost rapidly under both field and laboratory conditions and correlate with reduced exposure to the environment. Absence in spring samples, in addition to the eggs, larvae and newly emerged workers argues against direct vertical transmission of Arsenophonus in A. mellifera, contrasting markedly with other Arsenophonus-host interactions examined to date. Horizontal transmission via social interactions can occur, but with variable success. Multiple lines of evidence suggest environmental exposure is key to infection maintenance and social transmission may further drive the dissemination of Arsenophonus within a colony. These findings demonstrate evolutionary lability within this common clade of insect symbionts and have repercussions for studying transitions in symbiotic lifestyle.

description: We investigate spin transport in voltage-biased spin-active Josephson junctions. The interplay of spin filtering, spin mixing, and multiple Andreev reflection leads to nonlinear voltage dependence of the dc and ac spin current. We compute the voltage characteristics of the spin current (I_S) for superconductor-ferromagnet-superconductor (SFS) Josephson junctions. The sub-harmonic gap structure of I_S(V) is shown to be sensitive to the degree of spin mixing generated by the ferromagnetic interface, and exhibits a pronounced even-odd effect associated with spin transport during multiple Andreev reflection processes. For strong spin mixing both the magnitude and the direction of the dc spin current can be sensitively controlled by the bias voltage.

description: The purpose of this presentation is to propose that dairy producers begin monitoring select environmental characteristics in their dairy housing facilities to provide quantitative information about the performance of their facilities and its impact on the well-being of their dairy animals. Good management requires accurate performance data to compare against performance standards to identify problem areas or areas for improvement. For good dairy producers to continue too improve upon their existing performance they need to establish environmental performance standards, begin monitoring, evaluate performance, and implement appropriate management changes when performance is not acceptable.

To support data persistence, a persistent memory system requires sophisticated data duplication and ordering control for write requests. As a result, applications that manipulate persistent memory (persistent applications) have very different memory access characteristics than traditional (non-persistent) applications, as shown in this paper. Persistent applications introduce heavy write traffic to contiguous memory regions at a memory channel, which cannot concurrently service read and write requests, leading to memory bandwidth underutilization due to low bank-level parallelism, frequent write queue drains, and frequent bus turnarounds between reads and writes. These characteristics undermine the high-performance and fairness offered by conventional memory scheduling schemes designed for non-persistent applications. Our goal in this paper is to design a fair and high-performance memory control scheme for a persistent memory based system that runs both persistent and non-persistent applications. Our proposal, FIRM, consists of three key ideas. First, FIRM categorizes request sources as non-intensive, streaming, random and persistent, and forms batches of requests for each source. Second, FIRM strides persistent memory updates across multiple banks, thereby improving bank-level parallelism and hence memory bandwidth utilization of persistent memory accesses. Third, FIRM schedules read and write request batches from different sources in a manner that minimizes bus turnarounds and write queue drains. Our detailed evaluations show that, compared to five previous memory scheduler designs, FIRM provides significantly higher system performance and fairness.

title: Investigating the Biology of Host Shifts of Heritable Microbes
Creators: name: Griffin, Joanne
Publisher: name: University of Liverpool Repository

description: Arthropods are commonly infected with chronic bacterial infections that are passed from mother to offspring, typically transovarially. Obligate mutualists provide arthropod hosts with nutrients, facultative mutualists protect hosts against natural enemies, and reproductive parasites alter the host’s offspring sex ratio. These phenotypes ensure future transmission events of the endosymbiont. Heritable microbe frequencies vary across host populations. Some species, for example Wolbachia, are predicted to be in over 50% of all arthropod species and do not appear to have any focussed taxonomic affiliations whereas Cardinium is present in 7% of species, with spiders and mites a pronounced incidence hotspot. The incidence of heritable microbes in nature is in part a product of their capacity to host shift. The success of the host shift depends on host compatibility (ability to receive and transmit a novel endosymbiont without the bacteria causing excess pathology or eliciting the host’s immune response). Compatibility evolves independently of the novel endosymbiont and a key determinant of the bacteria’s success is the phylogenetic distance of the novel host from the ancestral host. However, the extent to which host compatibility is an evolvable trait is unknown. In this thesis, I address key factors affecting host compatibility to novel endosymbiont infection. I assess the speed of evolution of host compatibility in the melanogaster subgroup of drosophilids, to novel endosymbiont, Spiroplasma poulsonii and find closely related species do differ in compatibility, as predicted by the phylogenetic clade model of compatibility. I serendipitously observed a phenotype switch in the bacterium in laboratory culture and compile preliminary evidence to form a better representation of the endosymbiont’s behaviour. Within this system, I also investigate the role of gut microbiota in determining host compatibility and find that gut microbiota and Spiroplasma do not interact to influence host life history traits. The thesis then examines interactions of a very different heritable microbe, Arsenophonus nasoniae. A. nasoniae relies on mixed modes of transmission to spread throughout host populations and is highly infectious. I observe that A. nasoniae presents an immune challenge to both adult female and diapausing larvae of its native host, Nasonia vitripennis. The bacterium presents fitness costs to novel host, Nasonia giraulti, reducing fecundity and upregulating immune genes. Further, I present a novel mechanism of symbiont control through oxidative stress and iron sequestration. These findings have important implications for host shift biology of heritable microbes and highlight the importance of including life history traits in evaluations of host-symbiont dynamics.

description: Alara linigera Zelazny, sp. nov.
(Fig. 141)
 Description. Forewings 2.3 times longer than wide, length 3.1–3.7 mm. Colour white to stramineous; a red mark above eyes; tips of tibiae grey; abdomen stramineous. Forewings white, heavily powdered; a very faintly infuscated broad band across forewing just distad of middle; veins white to stramineous, costa orange. Hindwings white. Rostrum reaching end of abdomen; antennae elongated. Forewings with Sc+R fork in basal third; Ms1 branched well before its middle, bases of Ms1 and Cu1 connected by a cross-vein. Male genitalia with pygofer narrow. Genital styles broad, rounded, proximal dorsal process pointed, tip sclerotized, base of distal dorsal process swollen, but well separated from proximal process. Aedeagus short, a broad pointed, dorsal process near middle, its tip directed forward; apex short and rounded, slightly swollen with an irregular membranous lobe.
 Etymology. The species name is a Latin adjective (liniger, -ra, -rum = wearing linen).
 Type material. Holotype ♂ (forewing 3.1 mm, body 1.7 mm), PAPUA NEW GUINEA; labels: 1) NEW GUINEA (NE)/ Bubia, Markham / V. 50m. / Sept. 19, 1955 2) J.L. Gressitt / Collector (BPBM). Paratype. Tifamin, 1400m, 20.VIII.1963, 1 ♂ (fw. 3.7), R. Straatman (BPBM).
 Distribution. New Guinea (Papua).
 Diagnosis. Alara linigera is similar in structure and coloration to A. hyalina (Melichar) from the Philippines. It can be distinguished from that species by the tibia tips being lighter, the forewings lacking an orange or red mark around the first subcostal sector, and the male aedeagus having only one dorsal process near its middle, and only one apical lobe.

On the "failure" of the standard model for Soft X-ray Transients in quiescence

description: It is currently believed that the ``standard'' accretion disk theory under-predicts the observed X-ray luminosity from Soft X-ray Transients (SXT) in quiescence by as much as 4 to 6 orders of magnitude. This failure of the standard model is considered to be an important argument for the existence of the alternative mode of accretion -- Advection Dominated Accretion Flows (ADAF) in astrophysics, since these flows allow a much higher level of X-ray emission in quiescence, in agreement with the observations. Here we point out that, in stark contrast to steady-state standard disks, such disks in quiescence (being non-steady) produce most of the X-ray emission very far from the last stable orbit. Taking this into account, these disks can accommodate the observed X-ray luminosities of SXTs rather naturally. Our theory predicts that Fe K-alpha lines from standard accretion disks in quiescence should be narrow even though the cold disk goes all the way down to the last stable orbit.

description: Both TaNx and WNx are candidates for copper liner applications. A thermal CVD process for the deposition of WNx liners, as well as both thermal CVD and plasma-assisted CVD processes for the deposition of TaNx, have been developed, all of which are carried out at wafer temperatures under 425°C. The basic material properties, conformality, thermal stability, and integration and diffusion barrier properties of these materials make them appropriate for use in advanced copper-based interconnect applications.

description: We propose a method to obtain new exact solutions of spinning p-branes in flat space-times for any p, which manifest themselves as higher dimensional Euler Tops and minimize their energy functional. We provide concrete examples for the case of spherical topology S^{2}, S^{3} and rotational symmetry \prod_{i}SO(q_{i}). In the case of toroidal topology T^{2}, T^{3} the rotational symmetry is \prod SU(q_{i}) and m target dimensions are compactified on the torus T^{m} . By double dimensional reduction the Light Cone Hamiltonians of T^{2}, T^{3} reduce to those of closed string S^{1} and T^{2} membranes respectively. The solutions are interpreted as non-perturbative spinning soliton states of type IIA-IIB superstrings.
