title: Raman characterization of ZnO and Si nanowires

Publisher: name: Mountain Scholar

description: Organic Photovoltaics (OPVs) have gained favor recently for low production cost and potential for roll-to-roll flexible substrates. Though efficiency is fundamentally less than commercial PVs, low production temperature and costs potentially make up the difference. To increase efficiency of OPVs, Zinc Oxide (ZnO) and Silicon (Si) nanowires (NWs) are used to create hybrid organic photovoltaics. The nanowires increase electron pathways and electron mobility, thereby increasing efficiency. Zinc Oxide is used for its high band gap energy, polar structure, low material cost, optoelectronic potential, and microelectronic potential. Silicon is already used in commercial PV, has potential of creating more efficient cells, and Tsakalakos estimates nanowire silicon can reach up to 15%-18% efficiency.

description: Ceftiofur is a class 1 antibiotic (World Health Organization classification) and there is an increasing pressure from the veterinary and medical bodies to revisit its use for treating and preventing diseases in dairy cows such as acute puerperal metritis (APM). The presence of Escherichia coli (E. coli) in the uterus of dairy cows at day 1 postpartum was shown to increase by 3 the risk of subsequently developing APM. Unfortunately, there are no data describing the efficacy of ceftiofur treatment to prevent APM in the subset of cows with E. coli in their uterus at day 1 postpartum. Therefore, the objective of the study was to quantify the efficacy of ceftiofur treatment in dairy cows with E. coli in their uterus at day 1 postpartum to prevent APM.

description: In graphene, out-of-plane (flexural) vibrations and static ripples imposed by the substrate relax the electron spin, intrinsically protected by mirror symmetry. We calculate the relaxation times in different scenarios, accounting for all the possible spin-phonon couplings allowed by the hexagonal symmetry of the lattice. Scattering by flexural phonons imposes the ultimate bound to the spin lifetimes, in the ballpark of hundreds of nano-seconds at room temperature. This estimate and the behavior as a function of the carrier concentration are substantially altered by the presence of tensions or the pinning with the substrate. Static ripples also influence the spin transport in the diffusive regime, dominated by motional narrowing. We find that the D'yakonov-Perel' mechanism saturates when the mean free path is comparable to the correlation length of the heights profile. In this regime, the spin-relaxation times are exclusively determined by the geometry of the corrugations. Simple models for typical corrugations lead to lifetimes of the order of tens of micro-seconds.

description: Johne's disease is a chronic and highly contagious wasting disease of all ruminants caused by Mycobacterium avium ssp paratuberculosis (MAP). Major clinical signs include weight loss, pipestream diarrhea, edema, decreased milk production, and eventually death. In the US, Johne's disease affects ~70% of dairy herds, costing the industry up to $250 million per year in production loss. An estimated 5 to 10% of beef herds are also affected. Johne's disease represents a significant problem in goat and sheep herds as well; however, no serologic tests are currently licensed by the USDA for small ruminants.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Within the EU-funded project ‘Biological Effects of Environmental Pollution in Marine Coastal Ecosystems (BEEP)’, flounder (Platichthys flesus) collected during sampling campaigns in spring, autumn and winter of the years 2001–2003 were examined for the presence of histopathological liver lesions. The sampling sites were located on a transect from Kiel Bight to Lithuanian waters and included coastal stations on contaminant gradients as well as offshore sites. The prevalence of non-specific, early toxicopathic non-neoplastic, pre-neoplastic and neoplastic lesions was determined using ICES standard methodologies. Site-specific patterns were compared applying a ranking scheme based on the types of lesions recorded and their severity and by calculating mean histopathology indices for each of the sampling sites. Overall, the results confirm earlier findings indicating a generally low prevalence of pre-neoplastic and neoplastic liver lesions in Baltic flounder. However, the data reveal some marked spatial variation in the type and prevalence of the other lesions recorded and in the histopathology indices calculated, indicating differences between sampling sites regarding the impact of natural and anthropogenic environmental factors on the health status of Baltic flounder.

description: Since perovskite solar cells have attracted a lot of attentions over the past years, the enhancement of their optical absorption and current density are among the basic coming challenges. For this reason, first, we have studied structural and optical properties of organic-inorganic hybrid halide perovskite CH3NH3PbI3 and the compounds doped by chlorine halogen CH3NH3PbI3-xClx in the cubic phase by using density functional theory (DFT). Then, we investigate the light absorption efficiency and optical current density of the single-junction perovskite solar cell CH3NH3PbI3-xClx for the values (x=0,1,2,3) by utilizing optical constants (n,k) resulted from these calculations. The results suggest that increasing the amount of chlorine in the CH3NH3PbI3-xClx compound leads an increase in bandgap energy, as well as a decrease in lattice constants and optical properties like refractive index and extinction coefficient of the structure. Also, the results obtained by simulation express that by taking advantage of light trapping techniques of SiO2, a remarkable increase of light absorption will be achieved to the magnitude of 83.13%, which is noticeable.

description: The theory of Gaussian quantum fluctuations around classical steady states in nonlinear quantum-optical systems (also known as standard linearization) is a cornerstone for the analysis of such systems. Its simplicity, together with its accuracy far from critical points or situations where the nonlinearity reaches the strong coupling regime, has turned it into a widespread technique, which is the first method of choice in most works on the subject. However, such a technique finds strong practical and conceptual complications when one tries to apply it to situations in which the classical long-time solution is time dependent, a most prominent example being spontaneous limit-cycle formation. Here we introduce a linearization scheme adapted to such situations, using the driven Van der Pol oscillator as a testbed for the method, which allows us to compare it with full numerical simulations. On a conceptual level, the scheme relies on the connection between the emergence of limit cycles and the spontaneous breaking of the symmetry under temporal translations. On the practical side, the method keeps the simplicity and linear scaling with the size of the problem (number of modes) characteristic of standard linearization, making it applicable to large (many-body) systems.

description: Peer victimization in schools is a growing concern in China, where prevalence rates range from 22-26.1% (Han, Zhang, & Zhang, 2017; Cheng et al., 2010). Peer victimization is linked to many negative outcomes, including increased aggression (Arsenault et al., 2006; Averdijk et al., 2016). A positive school climate, which includes factors that support learning, physical and emotional safety, connection, support, and engagement, may serve as a protective factor against both peer victimization and its negative outcomes. This study examined the longitudinal relations between peer victimization, aggression, and school climate by examining self-report survey data collected from 800 3rd to 6th-grade students in China. Results indicated that a positive school climate was a significant moderator of the positive relationship between peer victimization and later aggression. These findings have important implications for the role of school climate as protective against later behavioral difficulties for victimized students.

description: Temperature-driven polyamorphism has been reported in various supercooled liquids and glasses. The dynamical and structural routes followed by the system during such crossovers are however not universal and appear to be related to intrinsic kinetic properties of the liquid. By combining x-ray photon correlation spectroscopy and high energy x-ray diffraction, we have followed the collective atomic motion and structural changes during quasi-static cooling of the Au49Cu26.9Si16.3Ag5.5Pd2.3 metallic glass-former. Due to this ultra-slow thermal protocol, the glass transition temperature is lowered far enough to reveal a liquid-liquid crossover in the ultra-viscous supercooled phase. This transition is usually hidden by vitrification and leads to a strong liquid characterized by increasing correlation at the medium range.
DELTA AND THETA: A TIME-FREQUENCY FRAMEWORK FOR MEASURING ERPS

Publisher: name: Digital Repository at the University of Maryland
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Psychology
subject: FOS: Psychology

description: Time-frequency methodologies, which allow for the examination of spatially and temporally overlapping subprocesses, have shown that delta and theta can be used to explain the majority of variance in many traditional ERP components. Furthermore, prior work suggests that traditional ERPs likely contain separable activity associated with the salience and central executive networks, which indexed by theta amplitude and theta ICPS, respectively. The present study sought to validate a core set of measures in the theta and delta bands (amplitude, ICPS and ITPS measures) using a novelty oddball task, which allowed us to assess the separability of SN and CEN activity indexed by medial-frontal theta. Our results indicated that time-frequency amplitude, ICPS and ITPS each represent separable processes, such that delta amplitude indexes task-based elaborative processes, theta indexes relevant SN-related information, and ICPS indexes activity associated with the CEN; therefore, all can be used to more fully characterize ERP data.
Difficult conversations with clients

description: Public service encounters occasionally become controversial. Even the most seasoned veterinary clinician practiced in the art and science of clinical conversation faces confrontational dialogue. In this presentation, dynamics for basic conversation interaction are explored to ensure preliminary understanding of Comfort Zone communication prior to exploring reasons for conflicting communication with clientele. Two basic categories summarize conflict between veterinarians and clients: expectations are misaligned and/or flexibility is insufficient between the two parties for simple resolve. The conversation shifts from the conversational Comfort Zone category to the Challenge Zone category with the very next 'Yes, but I ...... ' that is spoken. At least four options for response exist when conflict arises. Avoidance, Competition, Adaptation, and Cooperation generalize the choices. This discussion describes each response and its effect on the outcome, making the student of conversation dynamics internally aware which choice each party is making during the course of the conflict. Appropriate modification is then possible for redirection of communication. Overall, the presentation provides conflict analysis, enabling the trained professional to anticipate difficulty and thereby circumvent the negative encounter, or possess the tools for maneuvering when unexpected difficulty arises or bypass attempts fail. Unification of goals by both parties for the successful outcome of patient trouble produces success. Subsequent strengthening of the client-veterinary relationship ensures foundational growth for future positive encounter.

Research into the test characteristics of EC has generally focused on large, MAP-positive herds. This study was designed to evaluate the test characteristics of EC within typical Atlantic Canadian dairy herds. These herds tend to be smaller in size than herds that have been used in previous EC studies. Furthermore, many of these herds were suspected to be test-negative or have low MAP prevalence.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.In this study three important enzyme biomarkers in fish were used: muscular acetylcholinesterase (AChE) as marker of exposure to neurotoxins (especially organophosphate and carbamate pesticides), and hepatic ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (EROD) and glutathione S-transferase (GST) as markers of exposure to organic xenobiotics (especially PAHs, policyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and PCBs, polychlorinated biphenyls). Flounder Platichthys flesus and eelpout Zoarces viviparus, from the high contaminated coastal areas (Gdansk Bay) and from the reference area (open sea) were subjected to standard ichthyological analyses. Reproductive success in eelpout was determined by analysing survival of eggs and fry condition. The generalized linear models (GLM) were used for the analysis of dependence of the activity of AChE, EROD and GST enzymes on season and area of sampling as well as biological parameters of fish, such as age, sex, gonads maturity stage and body condition factor. Statistically significant differences in activities of muscular acetylcholinesterase and hepatic glutathione S-transferase activities in flounder were observed between reference and contaminated sites. Higher activities of hepatic ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase were observed in individuals of eelpout with distinct pathological changes (e.g., skin ulcers, dead fry). Results of chemical analysis in flounder muscle and liver indicated that the levels of the sum of PCB and DDT were markedly higher at contaminated sites when compared with reference site, both in muscle and liver fish tissue. In eelpout, in dead fry and fry with deformations, higher concentrations of the sum of PCB, HCH, DDT, Cu and Zn were observed comparing to the fry from fish without any visible pathological changes.

description: We consider a bistable ($0\textless{}θ\textless{}1$ being the three constant steady states) delayed reaction diffusion equation, which serves as a model in population dynamics. The problem does not admit any comparison principle. This prevents the use of classical technics and, as a consequence, it is far from obvious to understand the behaviour of a possible travelling wave in $+\infty$. Combining refined {\it a priori} estimates and a Leray Schauder topological degree argument, we construct a travelling wave connecting 0 in $-\infty$ to \lq\lq something" which is strictly above the unstable equilibrium $θ$ in $+\infty$. Furthemore, we present situations (additional bound on the nonlinearity or small delay) where the wave converges to 1 in $+\infty$, whereas the wave is shown to oscillate around 1 in $+\infty$ when, typically, the delay is large.

description: The veal and dairy beef industries experience high levels of morbidity and mortality during the growing period impacting calf welfare and economic sustainability. A large proportion of calves arrive into these industries with identifiable health abnormalities and, in consequence, calves are at highest risk of mortality in their first few weeks after arrival. A conventional method for addressing this high-risk period is the use of group antimicrobial therapy during their first week in the facility. However, in light of growing concerns for the development of bacterial antimicrobial resistance (AMR), targeted strategies for antimicrobial use (AMU) in this high-risk period are being investigated. Selective antimicrobial treatment of only those calves identified as high risk can be used to reduce overall AMU and therefore reduce the selective pressures that confer AMR. The objective of this study was to compare morbidity and mortality for calves in the first 2 weeks at a dairy beef facility between groups receiving conventional group antimicrobial therapy (CT) and those receiving selective antimicrobial therapy (ST) at arrival.

description: We developed a statistical mechanics approach to the problem of opinion formation in interacting agents, constrained by a set of social rules, $B$. To provide the agents with an adaptive quality, we represented both the social agents and the social rule by perceptrons. For fully connected societies we find that if the agents' interaction is weak, all agents adapt to the social rule $B$, with which they form a consensus; but if the interaction is sufficiently strong a consensus is built against the established $status$ $quo$. This behavior is observed for all temperatures $T$ and for all values of the agents' interaction parameter $H_{0}$, except in the limit $T\to\infty$ or when the interaction reaches the critical value $H_{0}=1,$ where no consensus is formed. The agents follow a path where, after a time $α_{c},$ they disregard their peers' opinions on socially neutral issues and reach a full consensus at time $α_{d}>α_{c}.$ The measure of time $α$ is proportional to the volume of information provided to the agents.

description: We study the effect of dynamical tides associated with the excitation of gravity waves in an interior radiative region of the central star on orbital evolution in observed systems containing Hot Jupiters. We consider WASP-43, Ogle-tr-113, WASP-12, and WASP-18 which contain stars on the main sequence (MS). For these systems there are observational estimates regarding the rate of change of the orbital period. We also investigate Kepler-91 which contains an evolved giant star. We adopt the formalism of Ivanov et al. for calculating the orbital evolution. For the MS stars we determine expected rates of orbital evolution under different assumptions about the amount of dissipation acting on the tides, estimate the effect of stellar rotation for the two most rapidly rotating stars and compare results with observations. All cases apart from possibly WASP-43 are consistent with a regime in which gravity waves are damped during their propagation over the star. However, at present this is not definitive as observational errors are large. We find that although it is expected to apply to Kepler-91, linear radiative damping cannot explain this dis- sipation regime applying to MS stars. Thus, a nonlinear mechanism may be needed. Kepler-91 is found to be such that the time scale for evolution of the star is comparable to that for the orbit. This implies that significant orbital circularisation may have occurred through tides acting on the star. Quasi-static tides, stellar winds, hydrodynamic drag and tides acting on the planet have likely played a minor role.

description: A multi-scale approach for the theoretical description of deformed phosphorene is presented. This approach combines a valence-force model to relate macroscopic strain to microscopic displacements of atoms and a tight-binding model with distance-dependent hopping parameters to obtain electronic properties. The resulting self-consistent electromechanical model is suitable for large-scale modeling of phosphorene devices. We demonstrate this for the case of an inhomogeneously deformed phosphorene drum, which may be used as an exciton funnel.

description: Dystocia is recognized as the leading cause of mortality in the beef industry, with almost 26% of neonatal calf losses being attributed to birth-related issues. The term dystocia is defined as a prolonged or difficult birth that may or may not require human intervention, while calving ease is a subjective measure of the effort required for an assisted delivery. A Canadian study reported that 8.9% of calvings in beef herds required assistance, with severe dystocia occurring in 3.7% of births. Similarly, in the United States, 7.7% and 3.4% of heifers and 3.2% and 1% of cows, respectively, required easy and hard pulls to deliver their calf. Despite the incidence and impacts of assisted calvings, there is little available data that quantifies the forces applied during an assisted delivery and the associated compromise in the newborn calf. The objectives of this study were to: 1) quantify the force applied during manual and mechanical delivery of beef calves, and 2) examine the association of force with calf birthweight, vigour, acidemia, and tissue trauma.

description: The major objective of this multi-herd observational study was to describe the relationship between BBC and udder health and to identify cutpoints for interpreting bedding culture results. A secondary objective was to identify bedding characteristics and bedding management strategies that are associated with lower BBC and improved udder health. This abstract presents preliminary results describing some of the relationships between bedding bacteria count (BBC), bedding characteristics, and udder health for 4 bedding materials: new sand (NS), reclaimed sand (RS), manure solids (MS), or other organic bedding materials (OB).

description: Many cows acquire subclinical intramammary infections (IMI) during lactation, necessitating antimicrobial treatment at dry-off (dry cow therapy). If the dairy industry moves toward the adoption of selective dry cow therapy, one essential strategy to reduce mastitis-associated antimicrobial use at dry off will be to reduce the incidence of new IMI during lactation. One important source of mastitis-causing pathogens is bedding. However studies are needed to investigate the association between bedding management, bedding bacteria count (BBC), and IMI risk in late lactation cows. The objectives of this prospective cross-sectional study are to: 1) describe associations between BBC and IMI prevalence for individual pathogens and specific pathogen groups in late lactation cows, 2) identify bedding-related risk factors for high BBC, and 3) identify critical levels of bacteria in bedding that might be used as cut-points to guide practitioners when interpreting BBC reports. This study is ongoing, with winter 2018 results currently being assembled.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The size at first spawning is comparatively larger in Norwegian spring spawning herring (Clupea harengus L.) than in other herring stocks in the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. This is probably an adaptation to a life with long seasonal migrations between wintering-, spawning- and feeding grounds. The present paper presents empirical data and model results suggesting that also historic long-term shifts and annual variations in migrations and distribution pattern may be attributed to size dependency.

description: We present an algorithm to combine multiple matrix elements at LO and NLO with a parton shower. We build on the unitarized merging paradigm. The inclusion of higher orders and multiplicities reduce the scale uncertainties for observables sensitive to hard emissions, while preserving the features of inclusive quantities. The combination allows further soft and collinear emissions to be predicted by the all-order parton shower approximation. We inspect the impact of terms that are formally but not parametrically negligible. We present results for a number of collider observables where multiple jets are observed, either on their own or in the presence of additional uncoloured particles. The algorithm is implemented in the event generator Herwig.

description: Pre-milking cleaning and teat disinfection is a common practice on US dairy farms. Studies have shown that towel laundering practices can influence levels of bacteria in towels that are used in teat preparation. Consequently, some laboratories offer towel culture services, which are used by practitioners to evaluate the effectiveness of towel laundering systems. However, the impact of poor towel hygiene on udder health is not well understood, and few surveys have been conducted to describe towel hygiene, or management strategies to improve towel hygiene, on US dairy farms. The objectives of this cross-sectional study are to: 1) describe the levels of bacteria in udder towels on US dairy farms, 2) describe associations between towel total bacteria count (TBC) and intramammary infection (IMI) prevalence for individual pathogens and specific pathogen groups in late lactation cows, 3) identify laundering-related risk factors for high towel bacteria count, and 4) identify critical levels of bacteria in towels, that might be used as cut-points to guide practitioners when interpreting towel culture reports. This study is ongoing, with results currently being assembled. In this abstract we report preliminary results.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The database of Latvian Fisheries Research Institute on ichthyoplankton in the period of 1973–2002 was analysed separately for the 5 regions of the Baltic Proper (Bornholm Basin, Gdansk Deep and 3 parts of the Gotland Basin: southern, central, and northern), as well as the results of investigations of vertical distribution of sprat eggs in the Gotland Basin and Gdansk Deep in the years 1996–2001. Size of eggs was changing interannually, but significant correlations with the success of spawning (survival index) were found only in the Bornholm Basin. No significant correlations were found between size of eggs and age structure of spawning stock. Sprat eggs usually were distributed in the water column according to their size: the smaller were the eggs, the deeper they were sampled. Sprat eggs sampled in the Bornholm Basin were smaller compared to the ones from other investigated regions. Size of sprat eggs was decreasing during the spawning season in the Gdansk Deep and two parts of the Gotland Basin. In contrary, size of sprat eggs increased during the spawning season in the Bornholm Basin

description: In this work, a coarse-grained (CG) model of carbon nanotube (CNT) reinforced polymer matrix composites is developed. A distinguishing feature of the CG model is the ability to capture interactions between polymer chains and nanotubes. The CG potentials for nanotubes and polymer chains are calibrated using the strain energy conservation between CG models and full atomistic systems. The applicability and efficiency of the CG model in predicting the elastic properties of CNT/polymer composites are evaluated through verification processes with molecular simulations. The simulation results reveal that the CG model is able to estimate the mechanical properties of the nanocomposites with high accuracy and low computational cost. The effect of the volume fraction of CNT reinforcements on the Young's modulus of the nanocomposites is investigated. The application of the method in the modeling of large unit cells with randomly distributed CNT reinforcements is examined. The established CG model will enable the simulation of reinforced polymer matrix composites across a wide range of length scales from nano to mesoscale.
