description: Near-infrared images obtained with the CFHT AOB are used to investigate the stellar content of the Local Group elliptical galaxy M32. Observations of a field 2.3 arcmin from the galaxy center reveal a large population of AGB stars, and comparisons with models indicate that these objects have an age log(t_Gyr) < 9.3. It is concluded that intermediate age stars account for roughly 25% of the total K light and 10% +/- 5% of the mass in this field. The K LF of bright sources between 20 and 30 arcsec from the nucleus is well matched by the LF of the outer regions of the galaxy after accounting for differences in surface brightness and correcting for crowding. It is concluded that the relative size of the intermediate age component with respect to other populations does not change with radius over most of the galaxy. However, the integrated J-K color and 2.3 micron CO index change with radius within a few tenths of an arcsec of the galaxy center indicating that, contrary to what might be inferred from observations at visible wavelengths, the integrated photometric properties of the central regions of M32 differ from those of the surrounding galaxy.

description: We present a general scheme for treating the integrable singular terms within exact exchange (EXX) Kohn-Sham or Hartree-Fock (HF) methods for periodic solids. We show that the singularity corrections for treating these divergencies depend only on the total number and the positions of k-points and on the lattice vectors, in particular the unit cell volume, but not on the particular positions of atoms within the unit cell. The method proposed here to treat the singularities constitutes a stable, simple to implement, and general scheme that can be applied to systems with arbitrary lattice parameters within either the EXX Kohn-Sham or the HF formalism. We apply the singularity correction to a typical symmetric structure, diamond, and to a more general structure, trans-polyacetylene. We consider the effect of the singularity corrections on volume optimisations and k-point convergence. While the singularity corrections clearly depends on the total number of k-points, it exhibits a remarkably small dependence upon the choice of the specific arrangement of the k-points.

description: We formulate the Hopf algebra underlying the su(2|2) worldsheet S-matrix of the AdS_5 x S^5 string in the AdS/CFT correspondence. For this we extend the previous construction in the su(1|2) subsector due to Janik to the full algebra by specifying the action of the coproduct and the antipode on the remaining generators. The nontriviality of the coproduct is determined by length-changing effects and results in an unusual central braiding. As an application we explicitly determine the antiparticle representation by means of the established antipode.

description: The paper studies distributed static parameter (vector) estimation in sensor networks with nonlinear observation models and noisy intersensor communication. It introduces separably estimable observation models that generalize the observability condition in linear centralized estimation to nonlinear distributed estimation. It studies two distributed estimation algorithms in separably estimable models, the NU (with its linear counterpart LU) and the NLU. Their update rule combines a consensus step (where each sensor updates the state by weight averaging it with its neighbors' states) and an innovation step (where each sensor processes its local current observation). This makes the three algorithms of the consensus + innovations type, very different from traditional consensus. This paper proves consistency (all sensors reach consensus almost surely and converge to the true parameter value), efficiency, and asymptotic unbiasedness. For LU and NU, it proves asymptotic normality and provides convergence rate guarantees. The three algorithms are characterized by appropriately chosen decaying weight sequences. Algorithms LU and NU are analyzed in the framework of stochastic approximation theory; algorithm NLU exhibits mixed time-scale behavior and biased perturbations, and its analysis requires a different approach that is developed in this paper.

description: We report observation of field emission from self-catalyzed GaAs nanowires grown on Si (111). The measurements are realized inside a scanning electron microscope chamber with nano-controlled tungsten tip functioning as anode. Experimental data are analyzed in the framework of Fowler-Nordheim theory. We demonstrate stable current up to 10$^{-7}$ A emitted from the tip of single nanowire, with field enhancement factor $β$ up to 112 at anode-cathode distance d=350 nm. A linear dependence of $β$ on the anode-cathode distance is experimentally found. We also show that the presence of a Ga catalyst droplet suppresses the emission of current from the nanowire tip. This allows detection of field emission from the nanowire sidewalls, which occurs with reduced field enhancement factor and stability. This study further extends the GaAs technology to vacuum electronics applications.

description: Consumer interest in production agriculture has prompted the beef industry to develop tools to increase accountability of producers for animal management practices. The Beef Quality Assurance Feedyard Assessment, developed by veterinarians, animal scientists, and production specialists, was used to objectively evaluate key areas of beef cattle production such as animal handling, antimicrobial residue avoidance, and cattle comfort in 56 Kansas feedyards. During the assessment, management protocols were reviewed, facilities and pens were inspected, and cattle handling practices were observed. Of the 56 feedyards, 19 maintained complete and current documentation of Best Management Practices for all management protocols required by the assessment. During assessment of cattle handling practices, 78.6% of feedyards met requirements for an Acceptable score for all measured criteria. An electric prod was used on only 4.0% of cattle during processing. In addition, 83.0% of feedyards scored Acceptable for all stocking rate, feed bunk, water tank, and mud score standards.

Interpreting the Mg II h and k Line Profiles of Mira Variables

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2000

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We use radiative transfer calculations to reproduce the basic appearance of Mg II lines observed from Mira variables. These lines have centroids that are blueshifted by at least 30 km/s from the stellar rest frame. It is unlikely that flow velocities in the stellar atmospheres are this fast, so radiative transfer effects must be responsible for this behavior. Published hydrodynamic models predict the existence of cool, downflowing material above the shocked material responsible for the Mg II emission, and we demonstrate that scattering in this layer can result in Mg II profiles as highly blueshifted as those that are observed. However, our models also show that scattering within the shock plays an equally strong role in shaping the Mg II profiles, and our calculations illustrate the importance of partial redistribution and the effects of being out of ionization equilibrium.

description: Using methods of statistical kinetic theory parametrized with first-principles interatomic interactions that include chemical and strain contributions, we investigated the kinetics of decomposition and microstructure formation in Al-Cu alloys as a function of temperature and alloy concentration. We show that the decomposition of the solid solution forming platelets of copper, known as Guinier-Preston (GP) zones, includes several stages and that the transition from GP1 to GP2 zones is determined mainly by kinetic factors. With increasing temperature, the model predicts a gradual transition from platelet-like precipitates to equiaxial ones and at intermediate temperatures both precipitate morphologies may coexist.

description: Starting from the mean-field solution of a spin-orbital model of LiNiO$_2$, we derive an effective quantum dimer model (QDM) that lives on the triangular lattice and contains kinetic terms acting on 4-site plaquettes and 6-site loops. Using numerical exact diagonalizations and Green's function Monte Carlo simulations, we show that the competition between these kinetic terms leads to a resonating valence bond (RVB) state for a finite range of parameters. We also show that this RVB phase is connected to the RVB phase identified in the Rokhsar-Kivelson model on the same lattice in the context of a generalized model that contains both the 6--site loops and a nearest-neighbor dimer repulsion. These results suggest that the occurrence of an RVB phase is a generic feature of QDM with competing interactions.

description: A study was conducted in 3 feedlots to compare the clinical efficacy of tilmicosin to florfenicol and florfenicol-nunixin meglumine for the initial treatment of undifferentiated fever (UF) in backgrounded winter-placed feedlot calves treated metaphylactically with tilmicosin at arrival processing. No significant differences (P>0.05) were found in UF relapse rates, crude case fatality rates, bovine respiratory disease and histophilus fatality rates, or average daily gain between the 3 groups. The cost benefit of tilmicosin versus florfenicol and florfenicol-flunixin meglumine was based on the difference in treatment cost between the 3 drugs. Using current market prices and a treatment weight of 828 lb (376 kg), the cost of treatment with tilmicosin was $15.85 CAN less per head compared to treatment with florfenicol, and $15.90 CAN per head less than florfenicol-flunixin meglumine.

description: This paper considers the problem of distributed adaptive linear parameter estimation in multiagent inference networks. Local sensing model information is only partially available at the agents, and interagent communication is assumed to be unpredictable. The paper develops a generic mixed time-scale stochastic procedure consisting of simultaneous distributed learning and estimation, in which the agents adaptively assess their relative observation quality over time and fuse the innovations accordingly. Under rather weak assumptions on the statistical model and the interagent communication, it is shown that, by properly tuning the consensus potential with respect to the innovation potential, the asymptotic information rate loss incurred in the learning process may be made negligible. As such, it is shown that the agent estimates are asymptotically efficient, in that their asymptotic covariance coincides with that of a centralized estimator (the inverse of the centralized Fisher information rate for Gaussian systems) with perfect global model information and having access to all observations at all times. The proof techniques are mainly based on convergence arguments for non-Markovian mixed time-scale stochastic approximation procedures. Several approximation results developed in the process are of independent interest.

description: With recent Chandra observations, at least 60% of the 2-10 keV background is now resolved into discrete sources. Here we present deep optical, NIR, submm, and 20 cm (radio) images, as well as high-quality optical spectra, of a complete sample of 20 hard X-ray sources in a deep Chandra observation of the SSA13 field. The thirteen I<23.5 galaxies have redshifts in the range 0.1 to 2.6. Two are quasars, five show AGN signatures, and six are z<1.5 luminous bulge-dominated galaxies whose spectra show no obvious optical AGN signatures. The seven spectroscopically unidentified sources have colors that are consistent with evolved early galaxies at z=1.5-3. Only one hard X-ray source is significantly detected in an ultradeep submm map; its millimetric redshift is in the range z=1.2-2.4. None of the remaining 19 sources is detected in the submm. These results probably reflect the fact that the 850-micron flux limits obtainable with SCUBA are quite close to the expected fluxes from obscured AGN. The hard X-ray sources have an average L(FIR)/L(2-10 keV)~60, similar to that of local obscured AGN. The same ratio for a sample of submm selected sources is in excess of 1100, suggesting that their FIR light is primarily produced by star formation. Our data show that luminous hard X-ray sources are common in bulge-dominated optically luminous galaxies. We use our measured bolometric corrections with the 2-10 keV EBL to infer the growth of supermassive black holes. Even with a high radiative efficiency of accretion (e=0.1), the black hole mass density required to account for the observed light is comparable to the local black hole mass density. (Abridged)

description: Crossbred beef calves (age 3 to 20 days) were used to determine effects of injectable vitamins on serum concentrations of selenium, vitamin A (retinol), and vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol). Spring-born calves were assigned to 1 of 4 treatments: (1) no treatment (Control, n=10); (2) 4 mL of a product containing selenium and vitamin E (SE, n=10); (3) 5 mL of a product containing vitamin E, vitamin A, and vitamin D (EAD, n=10); or (4) 4 mL SE and 5 mL EAD (Both, n=10). Blood samples were taken from calves immediately prior to (day 0) and 48 hours after treatment, and from their dams on day 0. Concentrations of selenium, vitamin A, and vitamin E in the dams were 112.8 ng/mL, 0.21 æg/mL, and 2.84 æg/mL, respectively. Calves administered SE (70.3 ng/mL) or Both (72.9 ng/mL) had greater (P<0.05) concentrations of selenium on day 2 compared with Control (57.2 ng/mL) or EAD (56.0 ng/mL) calves. Calves administered EAD (0.21 æg/mL) or Both (0.22 æg/mL) had greater (P<0.05) concentrations of vitamin A compared with SE (0.17 æg/mL) or Control calves (0.15 æg/mL). Calves administered EAD (13.8 æg/mL) or Both (15.0 æg/mL) had greater (P<0.05) concentrations of vitamin E compared with SE (6.2 æg/mL) or Control calves (3.4 æg/mL). Administration of injectable EAD increased serum concentration of vitamin A and vitamin E in young beef calves, whereas SE increased concentrations of selenium. Neither duration nor clinical significance of increased concentrations of vitamins and selenium were investigated.

description: In this paper, we first discuss a series of important but puzzling physical mechanisms concerning the energy source, various kinds of core collapsed supernovae explosion mechanisms during central gravitational collapse in astrophysics. We also discuss the puzzle of possible association of $γ$-ray burst with gravitational wave perturbation, the heat source for the molten interior of the core of the earth and finally the puzzling problem of the cooling of white dwarfs. We then make use of the estimations for the space flux of magnetic monopoles (hereafter MMs) and nucleon decay induced by MMs (called the Rubakov-Callen(RC) effect) to obtain the luminosity due to the RC effect. In terms of the formula for this RC luminosity, we present a unified treatment for the heat source of the Earth's core, the energy source for the white dwarf interior, various kinds of core collapsed supernovae (Type II Supernova (SNII), Type Ib Supernova (SNIb), Type Ic Supernova (SNIc), Super luminous supernova (SLSN)), and the production mechanism for $γ$-ray burst. This unified model can also be used to reasonably explain the possible association of the short $γ$-ray burst detected by the Fermi $γ$-ray Burst Monitoring Satellite (GBM) with the LIGO gravitational wave event GW150914 in September 2015.

description: The paper concerns the development of distributed equilibria learning strategies in large-scale multi-agent games with repeated plays. With inter-agent information exchange being restricted to a preassigned communication graph, the paper presents a modified version of the fictitious play algorithm that relies only on local neighborhood information exchange for agent policy update. Under the assumption of identical agent utility functions that are permutation invariant, the proposed distributed algorithm leads to convergence of the networked-averaged empirical play histories to a subset of the Nash equilibria, designated as the consensus equilibria. Applications of the proposed distributed framework to strategy design problems encountered in large-scale traffic networks are discussed.

description: The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of tildipirosin (TIP) to tulathromycin (TUL) administered at arrival to reduce morbidity in beef heifers (Charolais; n=785; age=11.1ñ1.9 months; average body weight=830.9 ± 78.48 lb (376.9 ± 35.6 kg)) at high risk of developing bovine respiratory disease (BRD). BRD morbidity was lower in the TIP group (TIP=6.8%; TUL=20.9%; P<0.01) over the feeding period. Animals in the TIP group had greater average daily gain compared to heifers in the TUL group (TIP=2.49 lb (1.13 kg); TUL=2.34 lb (1.06 kg); P<0.01). No differences were observed between groups for number and severity of lung lesions. In the present study, tildipirosin was more effective than tulathromycin in reducing BRD morbidity and improving growth performance in newly received beef heifers considered at high risk for BRD.

description: In spite of the growing computational power offered by the commodity hardware, fast pump scheduling of complex water distribution systems is still a challenge. In this paper, the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) meta-modeling technique has been employed with a Genetic Algorithm (GA) for simultaneously optimizing the pump operation and the tank levels at the ends of the cycle. The generalized GA+ANN algorithm has been tested on a real system in the UK. Comparing to the existing operation, the daily cost is reduced by about 10-15%, while the number of pump switches are kept below 4 switches-per-day. In addition, tank levels are optimized ensure a periodic behavior, which results in a predictable and stable performance over repeated cycles.

description: Scan detection and suppression methods are an important means for preventing the disclosure of network information to attackers. However, despite the importance of limiting the information obtained by the attacker, and the wide availability of such scan detection methods, there has been very little research on evasive scan techniques, which can potentially be used by attackers to avoid detection. In this paper, we first present a novel classification of scan detection methods based on their amnesty policy, since attackers can take advantage of such policies to evade detection. Then we propose two novel metrics to measure the resources that an attacker needs to complete a scan without being detected. Next, we introduce z-Scan, a novel evasive scan technique that uses distributed scanning, and show that it is extremely effective against TRW, one of the state-ofthe- art scan detection methods. Finally, we investigate possible countermeasures including hybrid scan detection methods and information-hiding techniques. We provide theoretical analysis, as well as simulation results, to quantitatively measure the effectiveness of the evasive scan techniques and the countermeasures.

description: The Seyfert 1 galaxy 1H 0419-577 hosts a $\sim$kpc extended outflow that is evident in the [\ion{O}{iii}] image and that is also detected as a warm absorber in the UV/X-ray spectrum. Here, we analyze a $\sim$30 ks Chandra-ACIS X-ray image, with the aim of resolving the diffuse extranuclear X-ray emission and of investigating its relationship with the galactic outflow. Thanks to its sub-arcsecond spatial resolution, Chandra resolves the circumnuclear X-ray emission, which extends up to a projected distance of at least $\sim$16 kpc from the center. The morphology of the diffuse X-ray emission is spherically symmetrical. We could not recover a morphological resemblance between the soft X-ray emission and the ionization bicone that is traced by the [\ion{O}{iii}] outflow. we argue that the photoionized gas nebula must be distributed mostly along the polar directions, outside our line of sight. In this geometry, the X-ray/UV warm absorber must trace a different gas component, physically disconnected from the emitting gas, and located closer to the equatorial plane.

description: We study, by large deviations analysis, the asymptotic performance of Gaussian running consensus distributed detection over random networks; in other words, we determine the exponential decay rate of the detection error probability. With running consensus, at each time step, each sensor averages its decision variable with the neighbors' decision variables and accounts on-the-fly for its new observation. We show that: 1) when the rate of network information flow (the speed of averaging) is above a threshold, then Gaussian running consensus is asymptotically equivalent to the optimal centralized detector, i.e., the exponential decay rate of the error probability for running consensus equals the Chernoff information; and 2) when the rate of information flow is below a threshold, running consensus achieves only a fraction of the Chernoff information rate. We quantify this achievable rate as a function of the network rate of information flow. Simulation examples demonstrate our theoretical findings on the behavior of running consensus detection over random networks.
Thermodynamics of Born-Infeld-anti-de Sitter black holes in the grand canonical ensemble

description: The main objective of this paper is to study thermodynamics and stability of static electrically charged Born-Infeld black holes in AdS space in D=4. The Euclidean action for the grand canonical ensemble is computed with the appropriate boundary terms. The thermodynamical quantities such as the Gibbs free energy, entropy and specific heat of the black holes are derived from it. The global stability of black holes are studied in detail by studying the free energy for various potentials. For small values of the potential, we find that there is a Hawking-Page phase transition between a BIAdS black hole and the thermal-AdS space. For large potentials, the black hole phase is dominant and are preferred over the thermal-AdS space. Local stability is studied by computing the specific heat for constant potentials. The non-extreme black holes have two branches: small black holes are unstable and the large black holes are stable. The extreme black holes are shown to be stable both globally as well as locally. In addition to the thermodynamics, we also show that the phase structure relating the mass $M$ and the charge $Q$ of the black holes is similar to the liquid-gas-solid phase diagram.

Morphology of Critically-Sized Crystalline Nuclei at Shear-Induced Crystal Nucleation in Amorphous Solid

description: In this work we study morphological characteristics of the critically-sized crystalline nuclei at initial stage of the shear-induced crystallization of a model single-component amorphous (glassy) system. These characteristics are estimated quantitatively through statistical treatment of the non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulation results for the system under steady shear at various (fixed) values of the shear rate $\dotγ$ and at different temperatures. It is found that the sheared glassy system is crystallized through nucleation mechanism. From analysis of a time-dependent trajectories of the largest crystalline nuclei, the critical size $n_{c}$ and the nucleation time $τ_{c}$ were defined. It is shown that the critically-sized nuclei in the system are oriented within the shear-gradient $xy$-plane at moderate and high shear rates; and a tilt angle of the oriented nuclei depends on the shear rate. At extremely high shear rates and at shear deformation of the system more than $60$\%, the tilt angle of the nuclei tends to take the value $\simeq45^\circ$ respective to the shear direction. We found that this feature depends weakly on the temperature. Asphericity of the nucleus shape increases with increasing shear rate, that is verified by increasing value of the asphericity parameter and by the contour of the pair distribution function calculated for the particles of the critically-sized nuclei. The critical size increases with increasing shear rate according to the power-law, $n_{c}\propto(\dotγτ_{c})^{1/3}$, whereas the shape of the critically-sized nucleus changes from spherical to the elongated ellipsoidal. We found that the $n_{c}$-dependencies of the nuclei deformation parameter evaluated for the system at different temperatures and shear rates are collapsed into unified master-curve.

Pair-Instability Supernovae, Gravity Waves, and Gamma-Ray Transients

description: Growing theoretical evidence suggests that the first generation of stars may have been quite massive (~100-300 solar masses). If they retain their high mass until death, such stars will, after about 3Myr, make pair-instability supernovae. We consider the complete evolution of two zero-metallicity stars of 250 and 300 solar masses. Explosive oxygen and silicon burning cause the 130 solar mass helium core to explode, but explosive burning is unable to drive an explosion in the 300 solar mass star and it collapses to a black hole. For this star, the calculated angular momentum in the presupernova model is sufficient to delay black hole formation and the star initially forms a 50 solar mass, 1000km core within which neutrinos are trapped. Although the star does not become dynamically unstable, the calculated growth time of secular rotational instabilities is shorter than the black hole formation time, and such instabilities may develop. We estimate the energy and amplitude of the gravitational waves emitted during this collapse. After the black hole forms, accretion continues through a disk. Although the disk is far too large and cool to transport energy efficiently to the rotational axis by neutrino annihilation, it has ample potential energy to produce a 1e54erg jet driven by magnetic fields. The interaction of this jet with surrounding circumstellar gas may produce an energetic gamma-ray transient, but given the redshift and time scale, this is probably not a model for typical gamma-ray bursts.

description: Steer calves (n=1690) were used in a 220-day study to evaluate the effects of chlortetracycline (CTC) plus decoquinate (DEQ) on health and performance of feedlot cattle. Treatments were (1) control (CON); (2) CTC+decoquinate early (CTC+DEQ Early), and (3) CTC+decoquinate delayed (CTC+DEQ Delayed). Ten mg of CTC/lb (22 mg/kg) body weight (BW) was fed daily for 5 consecutive days beginning either on day 0 (Early) or day 6 (Delayed); decoquinate was fed at 22.7 mg/100 lb (45.4 kg) BW for 28 days. There were 6 pens per treatment, and 85 to 105 steers per pen. Steers in the CTC+DEQ groups had higher (P<0.01 to 0.05) dry matter intake and average daily gain than CON steers, but feed efficiency did not differ among treatments. Respiratory morbidity and re-treatment rates were lower (17 vs 23%, and 11 vs 22%, respectively, P<0.01) for steers in the CTC+DEQ groups than for those in the CON group. Timing of the initial CTC treatment had minimal effect on health and performance; however, feeding CTC for at least 10 days during the receiving period reduced morbidity and improved overall performance.

description: Fourteen of 19 Corriente roping cattle became acutely ill and died after consuming hay containing johnsongrass, and then introduced into a pasture of Tifton 85 bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon Pers ? C. nlemfuensis Vanderyst). The presumptive diagnosis was hydrocyanic acid toxicity (HCN) due to consumption of the bermudagrass. Tifton 85 bermudagrass has been utilized extensively for grazing cattle in the southern United States for 20 years with no reports suggesting HCN toxicity. In this case there was lack of a thorough diagnostic workup, and there were discordant results between laboratories. This case emphasizes that producers should be aware of the potential for toxicity due to nitrates or HCN in any forage, but a complete and prompt diagnostic investigation with appropriate collection of fresh samples is imperative for a definitive diagnosis.
