description: We study the phase effects driven by neutrino magnetic moment for Majorana neutrinos in a core collapse supernova. A neutrino with a large magnetic moment is emitted in a superposition of energy eigenstates from the neutrinosphere. These energy eigenstates can interfere to create a phase effect at a partially adiabatic spin flavor precession (SFP) resonance. We examine the dependence of the SFP phase effect on the size of the neutrino magnetic moment as well as its variation with the post bounce time. In particular, at late post-bounce times the SFP resonance becomes wider and eventually overlaps with the Mikheev-Smirnov-Wolfenstein (MSW) resonance. At this point, Landau-Zener criteria for adiabaticity can no longer be applied to individual resonances, but we show that SFP phase effect is still present after the overlap. We also discuss the observability of the SFP phase effect at late post bounce times where it is more likely to make an impact. Our analysis for the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) reveals that at low energies event rates do not fluctuate despite the presence of a sizable SFP phase effect. We find larger event rate fluctuations at high energies, but these fluctuations are also erased in the energy spectra of the observed charged leptons. A more refined treatment of electron fraction and the inclusion of neutrino-neutrino interactions may change our conclusions for observability in future studies.

description: Berry shrivel (BS) is a physiological disorder of grapevine that causes severe grape quality losses. The origin of BS is still unknown. In a trial with different treatments of the leaf canopy, a higher BS incidence in the plots with reduced leaf area was observed. Therefore it was investigated, whether a strong reduction of the canopy height regularly promotes BS development. Further, berry and leaf analyses should give evidence of possible changes in mineral contents which could be related to BS incidence. In three out of four trials, a strong reduction in leaf canopy height at the beginning of berry ripening, resulted in the appearance of berry shrivel (BS) symptoms. Intensive shoot topping during berry ripening therefore strongly increases the likelihood of BS occurrence, but does not always result in the appearance of BS symptoms. At the end of the berry ripening period, leaves in the reduced canopy height treatment (RCH) showed higher nitrogen content and lower potassium content than those in the normal canopy height treatment (NCH), suggesting a high and maybe also passive absorption of nitrogen, which hinders the absorption of potassium. These findings open new approaches for further studies on the causes of BS.

description: The co-optimization of behind-the-meter distributed energy resources is considered for prosumers under the net energy metering tariff. The distributed energy resources considered include renewable generations, flexible demands, and battery energy storage systems. An energy management system co-optimizes the consumptions and battery storage based on locally available stochastic renewables by solving a stochastic dynamic program that maximizes the expected operation surplus. To circumvent the exponential complexity of the dynamic program solution, we propose a closed-form and linear computation complexity co-optimization algorithm based on a relaxation-projection approach to a constrained stochastic dynamic program. Sufficient conditions for optimality for the proposed solution are obtained. Numerical studies demonstrate orders of magnitude reduction of computation costs and significantly reduced optimality gap.

description: Grapes are an important horticultural crop that is popularly consumed in a variety of different forms; the fruit is eaten in at its immature stage, as ripe fruit and dried as raisins and vine leaves are also consumed. Therefore any research on ways to improve production of Iranian grapes in terms of quality and quantity is valuable. The main purpose of this study was to test the use of Phenyl Phetalamic Acid (PPA) to improve fruit set and quality. The experiment was designed as a factorial for four grapevine cultivars; 'Razeghi', 'Askari', 'Sefidaly' and 'Rishbaba' and three concentrations of PPA (0, 500, 1000 mg∙L-1). Treatments were arranged in a completely randomized design with three replications. The experiment was done in the Kashmar vineyard (Khorasan Razavi province) during 2010 spring. PPA treatment was applied by foliar spraying at the stage of 50 % anthesis. Results showed that PPA levels had a significant effect on evaluated cluster traits (weight, length and number) and berry (number, weight, length and diameter). Fruit set index (number of berries per cluster) was 263.11 for 'Sefidaly' followed by 113, 109.89 and 76.11 for 'Askari', 'Razeghi' and 'Rishbaba', respectively. 'Askari' and 'Razeghi' cultivars showed similar and insignificant reactions but their difference was significant compared to 'Rishbaba'. The effect was significant for interactions of traits for cluster, berry and seed except for number of berries per cluster. Based on these results, cluster characters were significantly and positively affected by PPA treatment at the concentration of 1000 mg∙L-1. This concentration increased fruit set by 26.2 % compared to the control in all cultivars except for Askari. The PPA concentration 500 mg∙L-1, observed as the most effective treatment for improved berry characters, provided its non-significant difference with 1000 mg∙L-1. Seed number per berry decreased significantly in 'Askari' and 'Rishbaba' at 500 mg∙L-1, which was considered positive in terms of quality. In summary, results determined that PPA had a positive effect on fruit as an auxin synergist. These improved berry characteristics are hypothesized to occur through a decrease in the dominance of apical buds that would allow more metabolites to be directed to development of fruit clusters, although further research is required.

description: Many dairy veterinarians offer milking equipment evaluation to their clients as part of their routine services. While these services have usually been initiated largely for mastitis control reasons, improving milking performance is becoming a more important (and marketable) justification for these services, especially as dairies grow larger. Milking performance can be improved with proper vacuum settings and proper equipment configurations. Much progress has been made in the past few years to simplify equipment evaluation and to clarify the analysis of the results. This paper discusses the routine field use of an artificial, portable flow simulator to measure claw outlet vacuum.9,10

description: We present a controlled bond expansion (CBE) approach to simulate quantum dynamics based on the time-dependent variational principle (TDVP) for matrix product states. Our method alleviates the numerical difficulties of the standard, fixed-rank one-site TDVP integrator by increasing bond dimensions on the fly to reduce the projection error. This is achieved in an economical, local fashion, requiring only minor modifications of standard one-site TDVP implementations. We illustrate the performance of CBE--TDVP with several numerical examples on finite quantum lattices.
Cow Flow Through the Dairy

description: Dairy cow culling decisions have an important influence on the financial success of the dairy. Culling decisions can function as a component of genetic improvement and selection programs designed for long term gain and improved production efficiency. At the same time, culling may also represent failure or limited success of production medicine programs due to cows leaving the herd prematurely because of disease or health-related problems. Culling decisions are important from several different perspectives. Costs for replacement heifers may represent up to 20% of the dairy budget.13 Negative cash flows occur when a cow is sold as non-fed beef and a heifer is added to the lactating herd as a replacement. Cows retained in the herd represent capital investments, which are subject to various forms of risk that may alter the earnings from those investments. Perhaps wrong decisions are being made regarding which cows to keep, and choosing different cows for culling might increase profits. The perceived importance of culling decisions is also demonstrated by the observation that owners of particularly large herds, who otherwise are not involved in making individual cow management decisions, often directly participate in the routine decision-making process for selecting cows to cull. Annual culling rates for dairy herds in the US range from less than 25% to more than 35%, with 30% being average.2 Cows have different risks of being culled depending on their age.1,13 Although there is a tendency for increased culling rates with advancing age, management constraints and biases can modify this relationship. The typical cow remains in the milking herd less than 4 years13 even though peak milk production related to maturity ordinarily does not decline until 8 or 9 years of age for most cows.31 The reluctance of some producers to cull first calf heifers and choosing instead to give them a second chance is an example of management bias affecting culling policy.

description: Top-k error has become a popular metric for large-scale classification benchmarks due to the inevitable semantic ambiguity among classes. Existing literature on top-k optimization generally focuses on the optimization method of the top-k objective, while ignoring the limitations of the metric itself. In this paper, we point out that the top-k objective lacks enough discrimination such that the induced predictions may give a totally irrelevant label a top rank. To fix this issue, we develop a novel metric named partial Area Under the top-k Curve (AUTKC). Theoretical analysis shows that AUTKC has a better discrimination ability, and its Bayes optimal score function could give a correct top-K ranking with respect to the conditional probability. This shows that AUTKC does not allow irrelevant labels to appear in the top list. Furthermore, we present an empirical surrogate risk minimization framework to optimize the proposed metric. Theoretically, we present (1) a sufficient condition for Fisher consistency of the Bayes optimal score function; (2) a generalization upper bound which is insensitive to the number of classes under a simple hyperparameter setting. Finally, the experimental results on four benchmark datasets validate the effectiveness of our proposed framework.

Johne's Control in Cow-Calf Operations
Creators: name: Collins, Mike
Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 1998

description: The economic impact of Johne's in beef cattle has not been reported. It is largely dependent on the perception of the industry about Johne's disease and this, in turn, is quickly changing. For commercial beef producers, direct economic impacts such as decreased weight gains or decreased fertility are probably minimal. Purebred producers, however, face huge economic problems from Johne's disease. If, in the future, buyers of cattle consider it important to keep Mycobacterium paratuberculosis infections out of their herds, owners of infected herds may find their cattle bringing a lower sale price or are even unsaleable, while those from herds that are test-negative for paratuberculosis or are certified-free of the infection will bring a premium. This economic impact will be driven by buyer perception of the importance of Johne's disease. Five techniques or critical points for para tuberculosis control will be discussed beginning with the most effective and feasible and ending with the more difficult to implement.

description: Parametrized motion planning algorithms \cite{CFW} have a high degree of universality and flexibility; they generate the motion of a robotic system under a variety of external conditions. The latter are viewed as parameters and constitute part of the input of the algorithm. The concept of sequential parametrized topological complexity ${\sf TC}_r[p:E\to B]$ is a measure of the complexity of such algorithms. It was studied in \cite{CFW, CFW2} for $r=2$ and in \cite{FP} for $r\ge 2$. In this paper we analyse the dependence of the complexity ${\sf TC}_r[p:E\to B]$ on an initial bundle with structure group $G$ and on its fibre $X$ viewed as a $G$-space. Our main results estimate ${\sf TC}_r[p:E\to B]$ in terms of certain invariants of the bundle and the action on the fibre. Moreover, we also obtain estimates depending on the base and the fibre. Finally, we develop a calculus of sectional categories featuring a new invariant ${\sf secat}_f[p:E\to B]$ which plays an important role in the study of sectional category of towers of fibrations.

description: In this paper, we study growth rates of Coxeter systems with Davis complexes of dimension at most $2$. We show that if the Euler characteristic $χ$ of the nerve of a Coxeter system is vanishing (resp. positive), then its growth rate is a Salem (resp. a Pisot) number. In this way, we extend results due to Floyd and Parry. Moreover, in the case where $χ$ is negative, we provide infinitely many non-hyperbolic Coxeter systems whose growth rates are Perron numbers.
Opportunities for Cow-calf Practice
Creators: name: Dargatz, David A.
Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 1998

description: Production efficiency has become the watch word for cow-calf producers. Over the years the concept of initially integrated reproductive management and later integrated resource management has been adopted as a means to improve production efficiency on operations. Over time there has been a realization that maximum production is not always compatible with profitability or long-term sustainability. In addition, there has been a realization that one must focus on both components of the profit equation, revenues and costs, in order to achieve profitability in the enterprise. Many factors contribute to the potential for increased efficiency and profitability. Improved genetics, control of animal pathogens, nutrition research, and the development of reproductive technology all contribute to the potential for efficiency. However, data from the National Animal Health Monitoring System's (NAHMS) Beef '97 study suggest that relatively few producers are implementing some of the techniques that could contribute to production efficiency. The veterinarian is a key provider of information to producers and is in a position to help producers adopt technologies or improve management where appropriate. These sorts of decisions should always be based on the anticipated economic benefit to the producer.

Year: 1998

description: Traditional business management goals in the beef industry have centered on BREAKEVENS within production segments. Cow-calf producers manage pounds, feedyards "manage" to sell corn, and packers manage chain speed. Who manages for consumers? The 1995 NCBA Quality Audit indicates that the Beef Industry tolerates 20 million dollar losses due to bruises, 32% of slaughtered cattle had horns, and $7.05 per head was lost due to injection site lesions. Summaries of feedlot closeouts demonstrate cost of gain ranges of $20/cwt depending on respiratory disease morbidity and cattle genetic ability to perform. Veterinarians involved in Feedlot and/or Cow-Calf operations can enhance progress in efficiency, performance, and quality and have responsibilities to transfer data and information along the Beef Production chain. Bi-directional signals sent between production segments can help the Beef lndustry maintain market share and compete economically with other industries.

Vaccines I would Not Use in My Cattle

Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 1998

description: There are numerous vaccines available for cattle. Each of them were developed with the intent to provide protection from infectious agents that are believed to cause clinical disease. However, development of disease in susceptible animal is dependent not only on the host and pathogen, but also on many management factors. Certain of the current vaccines are better than others in providing protection from specific diseases. Differences among vaccines are significant and depend on the amount of antigen, the serotype (specificity) of the antigens, whether the antigen is live or non-infectious, the route of administration, the number of doses given, the adjuvant and other vaccine factors. Equally important are the many host factors such as age of the animal, the amount of passively acquired antibody present at time of vaccination, the nutritional status of the animal, immunogenetics and additional host factors. Management must also be considered such as crowding, ventilation, sanitation, water and feed sources (e.g. contamination), stress related to movement, assembly of animals from various sources, environmental factors such as fluctuations in temperatures, as well as other management factors.

Disease Outbreak Investigation in the Beef Herd

Year: 1998

description: Disease outbreak investigations can be an important, challenging part of beef practice. They require one to develop, by planning and experience, a thorough investigative approach which can be used to identify patterns and distinguish between the normal and the abnormal. Epidemiology is a key tool, but careful observation and logical deduction are also important. If handled correctly, even the most complicated disease outbreak situations can become excellent practice builders for the bovine practitioner. We present the basic steps that we have found necessary to ensure success in an investigation of disease problems in the beef herd. We place emphasis in this particular presentation, though, on one of the main tasks of the investigation, which is to clearly define the problem as early as possible. This is because, to paraphrase some well-placed advice, a problem well-defined is three-quarters of the solution.

description: The development of in situ vapour sampling methods to measure δ2H and δ18O in pore water of deep, unsaturated soil profiles, including mine tailings and waste rock, is required to improve our ability to track water migration through these deposits. To develop appropriate field sampling methods, a laboratory study was first undertaken to evaluate potential materials and sampling methods to collect and analyse vapour samples from unsaturated mine waste. Field methods were developed based on these findings and tested at two mine sites using either on-site analyses with a portable isotope laser spectrometer or sample collection and storage prior to laboratory analyses. The field sites included a series of deep (>50 m) multiport profiles within a coal waste rock dump and open wells installed in a sand tailings dyke at an oil sands mine. Laboratory results show that memory effects in sample bags and tubing require 3–5 pore volumes of vapour flushing prior to sample collection and sample storage times are limited to 24 h. Field sampling highlighted a number of challenges including the need to correct for sample humidity and in situ temperature. Best results were obtained when a portable laser spectrometer was used to measure vapour samples in situ.

description: We consider the imaging problem of the reconstruction of a three-dimensional object via optical diffraction tomography under the assumptions of the Born approximation. Our focus lies in the situation that a rigid object performs an irregular, time-dependent rotation under acoustical or optical forces. In this study, we compare reconstruction algorithms in case i) that two-dimensional images of the complex-valued wave are known, or ii) that only the intensity (absolute value) of these images can be measured, which is the case in many practical setups. The latter phase-retrieval problem can be solved by an all-at-once approach based utilizing a hybrid input-output scheme with TV regularization.

description: We give a complete description and clarification of the structure of the Levy area correction to Ito/Stratonovich stochastic integrals arising as limits of time-reversible deterministic dynamical systems. In particular, we show that time-reversibility forces the Levy area to vanish only in very specific situations that are easily classified.

description: The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence technologies has given rise to diversified intelligent services, which place unprecedented demands on massive connectivity and gigantic data aggregation. However, the scarce radio resources and stringent latency requirement make it challenging to meet these demands. To tackle these challenges, over-the-air computation (AirComp) emerges as a potential technology. Specifically, AirComp seamlessly integrates the communication and computation procedures through the superposition property of multiple-access channels, which yields a revolutionary multiple-access paradigm shift from "compute-after-communicate" to "compute-when-communicate". By this means, AirComp enables spectral-efficient and low-latency wireless data aggregation by allowing multiple devices to occupy the same channel for transmission. In this paper, we aim to present the recent advancement of AirComp in terms of foundations, technologies, and applications. The mathematical form and communication design are introduced as the foundations of AirComp, and the critical issues of AirComp over different network architectures are then discussed along with the review of existing literature. The technologies employed for the analysis and optimization on AirComp are reviewed from the information theory and signal processing perspectives. Moreover, we present the existing studies that tackle the practical implementation issues in AirComp systems, and elaborate the applications of AirComp in Internet of Things and edge intelligent networks. Finally, potential research directions are highlighted to motivate the future development of AirComp.

description: We reconcile the multiplications on the homotopy rings of motivic ring spectra used by Voevodsky and Dugger. While the connection is elementary and similar phenomena have been observed in situations like supersymmetry, neither we nor other researchers we consulted were aware of the conflicting definitions and the potential consequences. Hence this short note.

description: Highly excited Rydberg atoms are a powerful platform for quantum simulation and information processing. Here, we propose atomic ring networks to study chiral currents of Rydberg excitations. The currents are controlled by a phase pattern imprinted via a Raman scheme and can persist even in the presence of dephasing. Depending on the interplay between the Rabi coupling of Rydberg states and the dipole-dipole atom interaction, the current shows markedly different features. The excitations propagate with a velocity displaying a characteristic peak in time, reflecting the chiral nature of the current. We find that the time-averaged current in a quench behaves similarly to the ground-state current. This analysis paves the way for the development of new methods to transport information in atomic networks.

description: Relating thermodynamic and kinetic properties is a conceptual challenge with many practical benefits. Here, based on first principles, we derive a rigorous inequality relating the entropy and the dynamic propagator of particle configurations. It is universal and applicable to steady states arbitrarily far from thermal equilibrium. Applying the general relation to diffusive dynamics yields a relation between the entropy and the (normal or anomalous) diffusion coefficient. The relation can be used to obtain useful bounds for the late-time diffusion coefficient from the calculated steady-state entropy or, conversely, to estimate the entropy based on measured diffusion coefficients. We demonstrate the validity and usefulness of the relation through several examples and discuss its broad range of applications, in particular, for systems far from equilibrium.
