Characterizing the Motion of Solar Magnetic Bright Points at High Resolution

description: Magnetic bright points in the solar photosphere, visible in both continuum and G-band images, indicate footpoints of kilogauss magnetic flux tubes extending to the corona. The power spectrum of bright-point motion is thus also the power spectrum of Alfven wave excitation, transporting energy up flux tubes into the corona. This spectrum is a key input in coronal and heliospheric models. We produce a power spectrum of bright-point motion using radiative magnetohydrodynamic simulations, exploiting spatial resolution higher than can be obtained in present-day observations, while using automated tracking to produce large data quantities. We find slightly higher amounts of power at all frequencies compared to observation-based spectra, while confirming the spectrum shape of recent observations. This also provides a prediction for observations of bright points with DKIST, which will achieve similar resolution and high sensitivity. We also find a granule size distribution in support of an observed two-population distribution, and we present results from tracking passive tracers which show a similar power spectrum to that of bright points. Finally, we introduce a simplified, laminar model of granulation, with which we explore the roles of turbulence and of the properties of the granulation pattern in determining bright-point motion.

Salmonella in dairy calves
Creators: name: Sockett, Donald C.
Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 2021

description: Modern calf-raising facilities are not designed for effective cleaning and disinfection. Common issues are lack of a sanitary design, absence of wash bays, improper floor drainage, plus open side curtains and peaks, which negates the use of thermal fogging, which is the only effective method available to decontaminate buildings. Doorway entry and exit points use outdated technology (foot baths) to control infectious agents, and there is a general unawareness by calf raisers and veterinarians of the dangers posed by a relatively small number of Salmonella serotypes such as Salmonella Heidelberg. The dangerous serotypes of Salmonella spp can quickly circumvent current best practices for raising dairy calves and lead to high morbidity and mortality disease outbreaks.

description: We develop a systematic and efficient method of counting single-trace and multi-trace BPS operators with two supercharges, for world-volume gauge theories of $N$ D-brane probes for both $N \to \infty$ and finite $N$. The techniques are applicable to generic singularities, orbifold, toric, non-toric, complete intersections, et cetera, even to geometries whose precise field theory duals are not yet known. The so-called ``Plethystic Exponential'' provides a simple bridge between (1) the defining equation of the Calabi-Yau, (2) the generating function of single-trace BPS operators and (3) the generating function of multi-trace operators. Mathematically, fascinating and intricate inter-relations between gauge theory, algebraic geometry, combinatorics and number theory exhibit themselves in the form of plethystics and syzygies.

I. Marin, 17.06.2020.
 Remarks. From the other two callianassid shrimps mentioned above (G. candidus and G. tyrrhenus), the species can be easily separated by the dense setation of the dactylus of the major cheliped in males, and relatively small chelipeds in females (see Figs 1 e–g; 4) and the possession of a spine on the outer margin of the uropodal endopod. The congeneric Necallianassa acanthura, which occurs in the Mediterranean, is readily distinguished from N. truncata by the absence of a spine on the posterolateral border of the telson.
The species has been recorded from the northeastern (Dolgopol’skaya,1954, 1969; Kobyakova&Dolgopol’skaya, 1969; Makarov, 1938, 2004), southeastern (Mikashavidze, 1981) and southwestern (Bãcescu, 1967) Black Sea, but these records were considered questionable as these records were based only on larvae (Saint Laurent & Boźić, 1976; Abed-Navandi & Dworschak, 1997).
 Parasites. No external parasites were found.
 Distribution. The species is widely distributed in the eastern Atlantic, ranging from the Gascogne Gulf to Morocco and the entire Mediterranean including Tyrrhenian, Ionian, Adriatic and Aegean basins (Koukouras et al., 1992; Ziebis et al., 1996; d’Udekem d’Acoz, 1997; Abed-Navandi & Dworschak, 1997; Ngoc-Ho, 2003; Sakai, 2011, 2017); usually found burrowing in well sorted fine sand, rarely forming dense populations (Ziebis et al., 1996; d’Udekem d’Acoz, 1997). The presence of the species in the Black Sea is now confirmed.

Haptic Assembly Using Skeletal Densities and Fourier Transforms

description: Haptic-assisted virtual assembly and prototyping has seen significant attention over the past two decades. However, in spite of the appealing prospects, its adoption has been slower than expected. We identify the main roadblocks as the inherent geometric complexities faced when assembling objects of arbitrary shape, and the computation time limitation imposed by the notorious 1 kHz haptic refresh rate. We addressed the first problem in a recent work by introducing a generic energy model for geometric guidance and constraints between features of arbitrary shape. In the present work, we address the second challenge by leveraging Fourier transforms to compute the constraint forces and torques. Our new concept of 'geometric energy' field is computed automatically from a cross-correlation of 'skeletal densities' in the frequency domain, and serves as a generalization of the manually specified virtual fixtures or heuristically identified mating constraints proposed in the literature. The formulation of the energy field as a convolution enables efficient computation using fast Fourier transforms (FFT) on the graphics processing unit (GPU). We show that our method is effective for low-clearance assembly of objects of arbitrary geometric and syntactic complexity.

description: Abstract: "We consider the design issues of characterizing and appropriately choosing the quality of a product for maximum customer satisfaction and maximum corporate profit. We assume that the basic design configuration of a product is determined and that the designer must select the product quality by imposing statistical tolerances (manufacturing accuracy specifications) and choosing appropriate manufacturing processes. We claim that these design considerations, although often neglected, impact the behavior, cost, and even marketability of the product. A design concept without these specifications is incomplete because i) its feasibility is questionable ii) its cost of production is undetermined iii) its performance is unknown.The design process is seen here as an exploratory activity constrained by the manufacturing systems available. In particular, we provide a decision-analytic methodology to reason about the quality of product and the influences on profit resulting in a specification of manufacturing process and machine accuracy to match customer demands. The method has been implemented and applied to the design of a simple three component assembly to illustrate its capabilities."

description: Vaccination to reduce the occurrence of bovine respiratory disease is a commonly performed preventive health measure employed by veterinarians and beef cattle producers. Despite its widespread acceptance, evidence relating health and performance outcomes of receiving and feedlot cattle to vaccination for viral components of the bovine respiratory disease complex remains to be completely established. PubMed, CAB Abstracts, and The Bovine Practitioner were searched for peer-reviewed journal articles reporting field trials of viral respiratory vaccines utilizing naturally occurring disease models published in English between 1982 and 2012. Antigens of interest for this systematic review included bovine herpesvirus-1, parainfluenzavirus type 3, bovine viral diarrhea virus types 1 and 2, bovine respiratory syncytial virus, and bovine coronavirus. Search results were also reviewed for manuscripts reporting the effects of timing on viral respiratory vaccine efficacy in receiving and feedlot cattle. Studies were included in this review only if they reported clinically relevant outcomes, which were defined as morbidity, mortality, rates of chronic illness, lung lesions identified at necropsy or harvest, and performance parameters including average daily gain and feed-to-gain ratios.

description: Most large animal ambulatory veterinary practices are owned by 1 or more of their practicing veterinarians. For associate veterinarians who aspire to be practice owners, there are several areas which should be investigated before purchasing a share of a business. The advantages and disadvantages associated with ownership should be recognized and considered heavily. Having a working knowledge of the business finances, partner pay structure, decision-making process, and ownership contract details makes for an informed buyer. Before purchasing into a veterinary business, it is important to understand what is included in the purchase price and how the purchase will be paid If financing outside of the current business owner(s) will be used, there are several requirements that must be met to be considered eligible for a business loan from a lending institution.

description: We study the Yangian $Y_n$ associated to the general linear Lie algebra $\mathfrak{gl}_n$ over a field of positive characteristic, as well as its shifted analog $Y_n(σ)$. Our main result gives a description of the centre of $Y_n(σ)$: it is a polynomial algebra generated by its Harish-Chandra centre (which lifts the centre in characteristic zero) together with a large $p$-centre. Moreover, $Y_n(σ)$ is free as a module over its center. In future work, it will be seen that every reduced enveloping algebra $U_χ(\mathfrak{gl}_n)$ is Morita equivalent to a quotient of an appropriate choice of shifted Yangian, and so our results will have applications in classical representation theory.

Two-loop renormalization-group theory for the quasi-one-dimensional Hubbard model at half filling

Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)

description: We derive two-loop renormalization-group equations for the half-filled one-dimensional Hubbard chains coupled by the interchain hopping. Our renormalization-group scheme for the quasi-one-dimensional electron system is a natural extension of that for the purely one-dimensional systems in the sense that transverse-momentum dependences are introduced in the g-ological coupling constants and we regard the transverse momentum as a patch index. We develop symmetry arguments for the particle-hole symmetric half-filled Hubbard model and obtain constraints on the g-ological coupling constants by which resultant renormalization equations are given in a compact form. By solving the renormalization-group equations numerically, we estimate the magnitude of excitation gaps and clarify that the charge gap is suppressed due to the interchain hopping but is always finite even for the relevant interchain hopping. To show the validity of the present analysis, we also apply this to the two-leg ladder system. By utilizing the field-theoretical bosonization and fermionization method, we derive low-energy effective theory and analyze the magnitude of all the excitation gaps in detail. It is shown that the low-energy excitations in the two-leg Hubbard ladder have SO(3) x SO(3) x U(1) symmetry when the interchain hopping exceeds the magnitude of the charge gap.

description: Bug finding tools can find defects in software source code us- ing an automated static analysis. This automation may be able to reduce the time spent for other testing and review activities. For this we need to have a clear understanding of how the defects found by bug finding tools relate to the defects found by other techniques. This paper describes a case study using several projects mainly from an industrial environment that were used to analyse the interrelationships. The main finding is that the bug finding tools predominantly find different defects than testing but a subset of defects found by reviews. However, the types that can be detected are analysed more thoroughly. Therefore, a combination is most advisable if the high number of false positives of the tools can be tolerated.

description: Stencil computations are at the core of applications in many domains such as computational electromagnetics, image processing, and partial differential equation solvers used in a variety of scientific and engineering applications. Short-vector SIMD instruction sets such as SSE and VMX provide a promising and widely available avenue for enhancing performance on modern processors. However a fundamental memory stream alignment issue limits achieved performance with stencil computations on modern short SIMD architectures. In this paper, we propose a novel data layout transformation that avoids the stream alignment conflict, along with a static analysis technique for determining where this transformation is applicable. Significant performance increases are demonstrated for a variety of stencil codes on three modern SIMD-capable processors.

description: The purpose of this report is to examine the feasibility of the Town of Palmer becoming a passenger stop on a proposed East-West rail line that would connect to Union Station in Springfield and South Station in Boston. The report is presented in two parts. Part one presents the primary reasons that would make the case for a stop being placed in Palmer. The second presents a series of case studies to stimulate ideas on how Palmer could promote further growth through the creation of transit oriented development (TOD) around any future stop. The findings in this report are based on a review of Palmer’s current planning and regulatory documents, the results of a town wide charrette, interviews with public officials and business persons, analysis of publicly available data and a review of transit-oriented development projects across Southern New England. The findings are based on research undertaken from March through the end of May, 2019. Palmer and the Lower Quabbin Region The town of Palmer is located along the Quabboag, Swift and Ware Rivers in Hampden County, Massachusetts. Incorporated in 1775, it has a geographic size of thirty square miles and is surrounded by the towns of Ludlow and Wilbraham on the southwest, Belchertown on the northwest, Ware on the northeast, Warren on the east, Brimfield on the southeast and Monson on the south (Figure 1). It is situated on the easterly edge of the Springfield, Massachusetts Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA). Its nearest large population centers are Springfield (pop. 154,748, nineteen miles to the west) and Worcester (pop. 181,045, forty miles to the east).

description: A randomized trial was conducted to determine the lower respiratory tract pathogen load in cattle at risk of developing bovine respiratory disease (BRD). The objectives were to characterize and quantify concentrations of respiratory pathogens in the main-stem bronchi before and after administration of tilmicosin as a treatment for BRD. Ninety-three beef steers and heifers were selected from a group of 421 high-risk calves based on a BRD case definition that included clinical score and rectal temperature parameters. Three calves meeting the BRD case definition constituted a cohort; 1 animal within a cohort served as an untreated control, whereas the remaining 2 received 6.75 mg/lb (14.85 mg/kg) of body weight tilmicosin. An aliquot of solution obtained via lavage of the main-stem bronchi upon enrollment and at 72, 144, and 216 hours post-enrollment was serially diluted and cultured for respiratory bacteria. Treated animals had significant reductions (P<0.05) in Mannheimia haemolytica concentrations at each post-enrollment time point compared to untreated controls, while concentrations of Histophilus somni at 144 and 216 hours post-enrollment were lower than untreated controls. Rectal temperature was also reduced (P<0.05) at all post-enrollment sampling times in calves treated with tilmicosin. An improvement (P<0.05) in clinical score during the post-enrollment period was noted for calves receiving tilmicosin.

description: Compressive sensing (CS)-based spatial-multiplexing cameras (SMCs) sample a scene through a series of coded projections using a spatial light modulator and a few optical sensor elements. SMC architectures are particularly useful when imaging at wavelengths for which full-frame sensors are too cumbersome or expensive. While existing recovery algorithms for SMCs perform well for static images, they typically fail for time-varying scenes (videos). In this paper, we propose a novel CS multi-scale video (CS-MUVI) sensing and recovery framework for SMCs. Our framework features a co-designed video CS sensing matrix and recovery algorithm that provide an efficiently computable low-resolution video preview. We estimate the scene's optical flow from the video preview and feed it into a convex-optimization algorithm to recover the high-resolution video. We demonstrate the performance and capabilities of the CS-MUVI framework for different scenes.

description: Buying into a practice can be a scary proposition, but by doing 3 things you can set yourself up for success both professionally and financially. Upon graduating veterinary school, we have been consistently trained to use our left brain much more than our right. As we transition from mastering technical skills involved in routine bovine practice into more of a managerial or leadership role, we must grow and practice using our right brain. It is vital to first build a solid foundation as an associate based on work ethic, communication, and selflessness. Practicing leadership, reading to absorb new ideas and information, and learning from your colleagues and mentors is a great place to start. After deciding that you are a good cultural fit and would like to purchase a practice, you must have an accurate valuation based on the true profitability of the business, complete a feasibility analysis, and create a buy-in/buy-out agreement that is fair for both sides of the transaction. The holy grail of practice ownership is that you are acquiring equity while having the business actually pay for your buy-in.

description: Signature-based tools such as network intrusion detection systems are widely used to protect critical systems. Automatic signature generation techniques are needed to enable these tools due to the speed at which new vulnerabilities are discovered. In particular, we need automatic techniques which generate sound signatures — signatures which will not mistakenly block legitimate traffic or raise false alarms. In addition, we need signatures to have few false negatives and will catch many different exploit variants. We investigate new techniques for automatically generating sound vulnerability signatures with fewer false negatives than previous research using program binary analysis. The key problem to reducing false negatives is to consider as many as possible different program paths an exploit may take. Previous work considered each possible program path an exploit may take separately, thus generating signatures that are exponential in the size of the number of branches considered. In the exact same scenario, we show how to reduce the overall signature size and the generation time from exponential to polynomial. We do this without requiring any additional assumptions, or relaxing any properties. This efficiency gain allows us to consider many more program paths, which results in reducing the false negatives of generated signatures. We achieve these results by creating algorithms for generating vulnerability signatures that are based on computing weakest preconditions (WP). The weakest precondition for a program path to a vulnerability is a function which matches all exploits that may exploit the vulnerability along that path. We have implemented our techniques and generated signatures for several binary programs. Our results demonstrate that our WP-based algorithm generates more succinct signatures than previous approaches which were based on forward symbolic execution.

description: Controlling the state of a Bose-Einstein condensate driven by a chirped frequency perturbation in a one-dimensional anharmonic trapping potential is discussed. By identifying four characteristic time scales in this chirped-driven problem, three dimensionless parameters $P_{1,2,3}$ are defined describing the driving strength, the anharmonicity of the trapping potential, and the strength of the particles interaction, respectively. As the driving frequency passes the linear resonance in the problem, and depending on the location in the $P_{1,2,3}$ parameter space, the system may exhibit two very different evolutions, i.e. the quantum energy ladder climbing (LC) and the classical autoresonance (AR). These regimes are analysed both in theory and simulations with the emphasis on the effect of the interaction parameter $P_{3}$. In particular, the transition thresholds on the driving parameter $P_{1}$ and their width in $P_{1}$ in both the AR and LC regimes are discussed. Different driving protocols are also illustrated, showing efficient control of excitation and de-excitation of the condensate.

description: We investigate trends of the cold and hot gas content of early-type galaxies with the presence of optical morphological peculiarities, as measured by the fine-structure index (Sigma). HI mapping observations from the literature are used to track the cold-gas content, and archival ROSAT PSPC data are used to quantify the hot-gas content. We find that E and S0 galaxies with a high incidence of optical peculiarities are exclusively X-ray underluminous and, therefore, deficient in hot gas. In contrast, more relaxed galaxies with little or no signs of optical peculiarities span a wide range of X-ray luminosities. That is, the X-ray excess anticorrelates with Sigma. There appears to be no similar trend of cold-gas content with either fine-structure index or X-ray content. The fact that only apparently relaxed E and S0 galaxies are strong X-ray emitters is consistent with the hypothesis that after strong disturbances such as a merger hot-gas halos build up over a time scale of several gigayears. This is consistent with the expected mass loss from stars.

description: There are several different methods of testing cattle for persistent infection with bovine viral diarrhea virus (PI-BVDV), including immunohistochemistry (IHC), polymerase chain reaction (PCR), virus isolation, and antigen capture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ACE). The purpose of this report is to describe a case in which a pooled PCR test (28 specimens/pool) was compared for sensitivity against an ACE test (tested as single specimens). Ear notch specimens (fresh) were collected from beef calves purchased by a stocker operation. From January through March 2010, this stocker operation received 2,424 calves and took two ear-notch specimens from each calf for PI-BVDV testing. One specimen from each calf was sent to a commercial PI-BVDV testing laboratory that utilizes real-time PCR technology in specimen pools of 28 (Laboratory A), and a second specimen was sent to a commercial PI-BVDV testing laboratory that utilizes ACE (NS23) technology using non-pooled specimens (Laboratory B). Laboratory A detected four positive specimens out of the 2,424 specimens submitted (0.165% PI prevalence), while Laboratory B detected 12 positive specimens out of the 2,424 specimens submitted (0.495% PI prevalence). The 12 specimens detected by Laboratory B included the same four detected by Laboratory A, as well as eight additional positive specimens. Upon receiving these discordant results, the attending veterinarian requested that the 12 positive specimens detected by Laboratory B be re-tested using the original specimens. These original 12 ACE-positive specimens were then re-tested as single specimens at Laboratory B using a commercially available ACE test (Erns) and real-time PCR technology. The 12 original ACE-positive specimens were again positive by these different tests. Follow-up testing on the 12 calves was conducted more than 30 days after initial testing with a second set of samples from the eight surviving calves (four of the 12 calves died between the original and the second collection). The second set of samples from the eight surviving calves initially ACE-positive by Laboratory B were tested using serum, formalin-fixed ear notches, and fresh ear notches in phosphate buffered saline. All specimens were positive by gel-based reverse transcriptase PCR on serum and ear notches (non-pooled), and all eight formalin-fixed notches were also positive by IHC.

description: Milk quality on the dairy farm is influenced by the cow environment, the milkers, and the milking machine. A total milk quality program must therefore not overlook the milking system. The milking system can influence milk quality, bulk tank somatic cell counts, and clinical mastitis rates in many ways. Understanding what each part of the milking system does and how to test that it is functioning appropriately is key to providing milking system evaluation and milk quality troubleshooting services at your dairy practice.

description: Young veterinary professionals today are often hired by practices right out of school, and unfortunately these practices often lack the skills and training to set them up for long term success. These professionals have been taught what and how to learn for the better part of 2 decades and are now expected to self-motivate, identify, and educate themselves in such a way that they can grow and develop while in practice. These expectations often come with little to no formal guidance from the practice’s management team. Yet, these associates represent the best chance for practices to overcome the existing biases within their system and find new avenues to grow and expand. By understanding and harnessing their underlying psychology, associates can create an environment in which they can practice, identify, and excel in their own niche with, or in the absence of, qualified guidance and oversight. This psychology can then be used to create an environment of growth through pursuit of their purpose while leveraging their unique talents and routines. By educating our budding peers on the discussed self-development system, we can help them achieve their own niche by whatever definition they choose to use.

description: Three outbreaks of peracute to acute pneumonia in cattle of varying ages and breeds were investigated. Death losses were high, and often occurred within 12-24 hours of the onset of clinical signs of illness, in spite of aggressive antimicrobial treatment. Gross necropsy examinations consistently showed greater lung involvement (greater than 50%) than expected for the short course of the disease. In each case, the primary (or only) pathogen isolated was Bibersteinia trehalosi, a bacteria closely related to Mannheimia hemolytica, which has been commonly associated with acute disease in sheep and goats.

Non-existence of extremals for the Adimurthi-Druet inequality

description: The Adimurthi-Druet [1] inequality is an improvement of the standard Moser-Trudinger inequality by adding a $L^2$-type perturbation, quantified by $α\in [0,λ\_1)$, where $λ\_1$ is the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of $Δ$ on a smooth bounded domain. It is known [3,9,13,18] that this inequality admits extremal functions, when the perturbation parameter $α$ is small. By contrast, we prove here that the Adimurthi-Druet inequality does not admit any extremal, when the perturbation parameter $α$ approaches $λ\_1$. Our result is based on sharp expansions of the Dirichlet energy for blowing sequences of solutions of the corresponding Euler-Lagrange equation, which take into account the fact that the problem becomes singular as $α\to λ\_1$.
