description: Ketosis is a major metabolic disease characterized by high concentration of ketone bodies including β-hydroxy butyrate (BHB) in dairy cows. Although we and others have demonstrated the negative relationship between ketosis and reproductive performance of lactating cows, the mechanisms are not clear. We investigated the association between ketosis, determined by milk BHB concentrations during 3-14 days in milk (DIM), and ovarian activity, measured by milk progesterone (P4) profiles within 150 DIM in Holstein cows.
Gravity and seismic studies in the southern Rocky Mountain trench
Creators: name: Spence, George D.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: as one of three explanations of a prominenttine delay in the 6.5 km/s branch of their seismic refraction survey in the Rocky Mountain Trench, Eennett et al (1975) suggested a high-angle crustal fault crossing the trench near Radium. If the density contrast between basement and cover rocks is 0.1 g/cm3, a gravity anomaly of approximately 18 mgal should be observed. To test the fault hypothesis, a gravity survey has been carried out in and adjacent to the trench in the Radium area. The resultant data are not consistent with the proposed fault model. The principal feature of the data is a pronounced low which coincides with the trench throughout the survey area. The low is due to Cenozoic fill and interpretation by two-dimensional modeling indicates the thickness of fill is about 550 m to the north and 420 m to the south of Radium. An analysis has also been performed of the shear-wave data recorded during the seismic survey of Bennett et al (1975). Although the quality of the S save data is poor, they show consistent behavior with the P save data. There is weak evidence suggesting a basement refractor velocity of 3.5 km/s and a Moho refractor velocity of 4.2-4.5 km/s. The corresponding Poisscn's ratios are 0.30 and 0.28-0.32. To determine maximum and minimum depth limits to the Hcho allowed by the seismic data, an extremal analysis was performed on both the P and S wave record sections. From the P wave data, the limits on crustal thickness beneath the Rocky Mountain Trench are 52 km and 60 km; from the S wave data, the limits are 47 km and 59 km. Is a result of these additional studies, the tao alternative hypotheses of Bennett et al (1975) to explain the seismic data must be reconsidered. These are (1) the existence of a crustal low velocity zone and (2) a major deformation of the basement and overlying rocks due to the trench being an ancient zone of weakness which coincides with the western limit of the continental Precambrian craton. As reflections from the top of the low velocity zone are not observed by Bennett et al (1975), the second alternative is preferred.

description: Friction is a familiar phenomenon to humankind and has long been studied; however, it is fundamentally difficult to understand because of the complex processes that contribute to it. For elucidating friction, it is helpful to simplify the system. In this respect, molecular manipulation, in which a single molecule or atom on a surface is moved by the tip of a scanning probe microscope, is an ideal research target. In this paper, we combine noncontact atomic force microscopy, inelastic electron tunneling spectroscopy, and density functional theory calculations to investigate the molecular manipulation process of a single CO molecule on Cu(110) and Cu(111) surfaces at low temperature. We discovered the presence of a metastable adsorption site that is not occupied when the tip is far from the surface but is engaged for close tip positions. This adsorption site plays the role of an intermediate state in the reaction path of manipulation, and this intermediate is important for understanding the dynamics of manipulation and dynamic friction. We elaborate the process leading to the above conclusions in detail and discuss future perspectives.

description: We investigate wide-angle photoproduction of the $η'$ meson within the handbag approach to twist-3 accuracy. It turns out that, due to the gluon content of the $η'$, this process is dominated by twist-2 in contrast with pion and $η$ photoproduction. Using the presently available information on the twist-2 and twist-3 distribution amplitudes and on the $η- η'$ mixing, we provide prediction for the $η'$ cross section and helicity correlations. It is argued that $η'$ photoproduction is well suited to improve our knowledge of the two-gluon distribution amplitude.

Geochronology of the Clachnacudainn Gneiss, located near Revelstoke, B.C.
Creators: name: Birnie, David John
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: K-Ar biotite ages and Rb-3r mineral isochron ages indicate that a 55 m. yr. old Tertiary thermal event has affected the rocks of the Clachnacudainn Salient of the Shuswap Metamorphic Complex. An attempt was made to date the Clachnacudainn Gneiss by the Rb-Sr whole rock method. It was hoped that this study would provide some insight into the problem of determining the origin of the gneiss. However, the data shows considerable scatter with no systematic pattern to it. This, together with petrographic evidence, suggests that the closed system assumption has not been maintained. Thus no isochron could be determined. Several suggestions are presented to account for the scatter in the data.

description: We present a global fit to single- and double-inclusive suppression data of high-$p_T$ particles in central Au+Au collisions at top RHIC energy. We also include in this analysis data on heavy quarks via their D and B meson semi-leptonic decays (i.e. non-photonic electrons). The analysis is based on the parton quenching weights for medium-induced gluon radiation computed in the BDMPS approximation then embedded in a hydrodynamical description of the bulk medium. Our results indicate that values of the transport coefficient $\hat q$ more than four times larger than perturbative estimates are preferred by experimental data. This confirms previous calculations based on simpler implementations of the medium geometry or only the single-inclusive suppression. We also comment on the statistical compatibility of the heavy quark data within a radiative only energy loss scenario, and on the sensitivity of the results to nuclear modification of the parton distribution functions (PDFs) and to assumptions on the energy loss during times in the collision prior to the hydrodynamical behavior.}

description: We perform a detailed analysis of the recollision-excitation-tunneling (RESI) mechanism in laser-induced nonsequential double ionization (NSDI), in which the first electron, upon return, promotes a second electron to an excited state, from which it subsequently tunnels, based on the strong-field approximation. We show that the shapes of the electron momentum distributions carry information about the bound-state with which the first electron collides, the bound state to which the second electron is excited, and the type of electron-electron interaction. Furthermore, one may define a driving-field intensity threshold for the RESI physical mechanism. At the threshold, the kinetic energy of the first electron, upon return, is just sufficient to excite the second electron. We compute the distributions for helium and argon in the threshold and above-threshold intensity regime. In the latter case, we relate our findings to existing experiments. The electron-momentum distributions encountered are symmetric with respect to all quadrants of the plane spanned by the momentum components parallel to the laser-field polarization, instead of concentrating on only the second and fourth quadrants.

Among them: 4-dimensional general scalar-tensor model, multidimensional vacuum model with two curved Einstein spaces, multidimensional model with multicomponent anisotropic "perfect fluid", S-brane model with scalar fields and two form field etc. It is shown that there exist different possible ways of explanation of relatively small time variation of the effective gravitational constant G compatible with present cosmological data (e.g. acceleration): 4-dimensional scalar-tensor theories or multidimensional cosmological models with different matter sources. The experimental bounds on G-dot may be satisfied ether in some restricted interval or for all allowed values of the synchronous time variable.

description: We present the results of a search for clustering among the highest energy events detected by the surface detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory between 1 January 2004 and 31 August 2007. We analyse the autocorrelation function, in which the number of pairs with angular separation within a given angle is compared with the expectation from an isotropic distribution. Performing a scan in energy above 30 EeV and in angles smaller than 30 degrees, the most significant excess of pairs appears for E > 57 EeV and for a wide range of separation angles, between 9 and 22 degrees. An excess like this has a chance probability of about 2% to arise from an isotropic distribution and appears at the same energy threshold at which the Pierre Auger Observatory has reported a correlation of the arrival directions of cosmic rays with nearby astrophysical objects.

description: We briefly review studies of off-shell stability of vacuum geometries in semiclassical gravity. We propose a study of off-shell stability of vacua in string theory by a distinct, though somewhat related approach -- by studying their stability under suitable world-sheet sigma model renormalization group (RG) flows. Stability under RG flow is a mathematically well-posed and tractable problem in many cases, as we illustrate through examples. The advantage is that we can make definite predictions about late time behaviour and endpoints of off-shell processes in string theory. This is a contribution to the proceedings of Theory Canada 4, CRM Montreal.

description: We investigate the stability of Bloch waves for a Bose-Einstein condensate moving through a periodic lattice created by another condensate modulated by an optical lattice. We show that the coupling of phonon-antiphonon modes of the two species give rise to a very rich structure of the regimes for dynamical instability, with significant differences with respect to the case of a single condensate in an optical lattice. We characterize the relative weight of each condensate in the mixing and discuss an analytic limit that accounts for the bare structure of the instability diagrams.

description: We show how classical and quantum dualities, as well as duality relations that appear only in a sector of certain theories ("emergent dualities"), can be unveiled, and systematically established. Our method relies on the use of morphisms of the "bond algebra" of a quantum Hamiltonian. Dualities are characterized as unitary mappings implementing such morphisms, whose even powers become symmetries of the quantum problem. Dual variables -which were guessed in the past- can be derived in our formalism. We obtain new self-dualities for four-dimensional Abelian gauge field theories.

description: When observed in quiet regions close to the solar limb, many strong resonance lines show conspicuous linear polarization signals, produced by scattering processes, with extended wing lobes. Recent studies indicate that, contrary to what was previously believed, the wing lobes are sensitive to the presence of relatively weak longitudinal magnetic fields through magneto-optical (MO) effects. We theoretically investigate the sensitivity of the scattering polarization wings of the Ca I 4227 Å line to the MO effects, and we explore its diagnostic potential for inferring information on the longitudinal component of the photospheric magnetic field. We calculate the intensity and polarization profiles of the Ca I 4227 Å line by numerically solving the problem of the generation and transfer of polarized radiation under non-local thermodynamic equilibrium conditions in one-dimensional semi-empirical models of the solar atmosphere, taking into account the joint action of the Hanle, Zeeman, and MO effects. We consider volume-filling magnetic fields as well as magnetic fields occupying a fraction of the resolution element. In contrast to the circular polarization signals produced by the Zeeman effect, we find that the linear polarization angle in the scattering polarization wings of Ca I 4227 presents a clear sensitivity, through MO effects, not only to the flux of the photospheric magnetic field, but also to the fraction of the resolution element that the magnetic field occupies. We identify the linear polarization angle in the wings of strong resonance lines as a valuable observable for diagnosing unresolved magnetic fields. Used in combination with observables that encode information on the magnetic flux and other properties of the observed atmospheric region, it can provide constraints on the filling factor of the magnetic field.

description: The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) will be a large, wide-field ground-based system designed to obtain, starting in 2015, multiple images of the sky that is visible from Cerro Pachon in Northern Chile. About 90% of the observing time will be devoted to a deep-wide-fast survey mode which will observe a 20,000 deg$^2$ region about 1000 times during the anticipated 10 years of operations (distributed over six bands, $ugrizy$). Each 30-second long visit will deliver 5$σ$ depth for point sources of $r\sim24.5$ on average. The co-added map will be about 3 magnitudes deeper, and will include 10 billion galaxies and a similar number of stars. We discuss various measurements that will be automatically performed for these 20 billion sources, and how they can be used for classification and determination of source physical and other properties. We provide a few classification examples based on SDSS data, such as color classification of stars, color-spatial proximity search for wide-angle binary stars, orbital-color classification of asteroid families, and the recognition of main Galaxy components based on the distribution of stars in the position-metallicity-kinematics space. Guided by these examples, we anticipate that two grand classification challenges for LSST will be 1) rapid and robust classification of sources detected in difference images, and 2) {\it simultaneous} treatment of diverse astrometric and photometric time series measurements for an unprecedentedly large number of objects.

description: Inflammation is a critical defence mechanism in higher animals but uncontrolled inflammation is implicated in many diseases and can lead to chronic conditions, posing significant challenges to healthcare and the global economy. Conventional therapies often come with limitations and adverse effects, underscoring the need for safer and more effective alternatives. This study investigates the efficacy of C-Phycocyanin (C-PC), a pigment derived from Spirulina platensis cultivated under optimal light conditions, as an anti-inflammatory agent. This research focused on its effects on nitric oxide secretion, which supports the body’s immune system by killing pathogens, and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) gene expression as an inflammatory indicator, in phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-stimulated human chondrocyte cells (C28/I2). The Methyl Thiazol Tetrazolium (MTT) assay was employed to evaluate the metabolic activity of cells and confirm the non-toxicity of C-PC. The results demonstrated that C-PC maintained 99.32% cell viability in the C28/I2 in vitro model after seven days. Notably, C-PC treatment prevented cell death and promoted cell proliferation, increasing the number of viable cells by 12.34% during the same period. Additionally, it significantly reduced IL-1β gene expression and nitric oxide secretion by 70.24% and 91.25%, respectively, effectively reducing levels to those observed in unstimulated conditions. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and crystal violet staining showed that C-PC treatment restored normal morphology and protected the cells from inflammation-induced changes.

description: For many quantum field theory computations in cosmology it is not possible to use the flat space trick of obtaining full, interacting states by evolving free states over infinite times. State wave functionals must be specified at finite times and, although the free states suffice to obtain the lowest order effects, higher order corrections necessarily involve changes of the initial state. Failing to correctly change the initial state can result in effective field equations which diverge on the initial value surface, or which contain tedious sums of terms that redshift like inverse powers of the scale factor. In this paper we verify a conjecture from 2004 that the lowest order initial state correction can indeed absorb the initial value divergences and all the redshifting terms of the two loop expectation value of the stress tensor of a massless, minimally coupled scalar with a quartic self interaction on nondynamical de Sitter background.

description: We have recently proposed an "Ultra-Strong" version of the Equivalence Principle (EP) that is not satisfied by standard semiclassical gravity. In the theory that we are conjecturing, the vacuum expectation value of the (bare) energy momentum tensor is exactly the same as in flat space: quartically divergent with the cut-off and with no spacetime dependent (subleading) ter ms. The presence of such terms seems in fact related to some known difficulties, such as the black hole information loss and the cosmological constant problem. Since the terms that we want to get rid of are subleading in the high-momentum expansion, we attempt to explore the conjectured theory by "IR-completing" GR. We consider a scalar field in a flat FRW Universe and isolate the first IR-correction to its Fourier modes operators that kills the quadratic (next to leading) time dependent divergence of the stress energy tensor VEV. Analogously to other modifications of field operators that have been proposed in the literature (typically in the UV), the present approach seems to suggest a breakdown (here, in the IR, at large distances) of the metric manifold description. We show that corrections to GR are in fact very tiny, become effective at distances comparable to the inverse curvature and do not contain any adjustable parameter. Finally, we derive some cosmological implications. By studying the consistency of the canonical commutation relations, we infer a correction to the distance between two comoving observers, which grows as the scale factor only when small compared to the Hubble length, but gets relevant corrections otherwise. The corrections to cosmological distance measures are also calculable and, for a spatially flat matter dominated Universe, go in the direction of an effective positive acceleration.

description: The adsorption of phages to hosts is the first step of phage infection. Studies have shown that tailed phages use tail fibres or spikes to recognize bacterial receptors and mediate adsorption. However, whether other phage tail components can also recognize host receptors is unknown. To identify potential receptors, we screened a transposon mutagenesis library of the marine pathogen Vibrio parahaemolyticus and discovered that a vp0980 mutant (vp0980 encodes a predicted transmembrane protein) could not be lysed by phage OWB. Complementation of this mutant with wild-type vp0980 in trans restored phage-mediated lysis. Phage adsorption and confocal microscopy assays demonstrated that phage OWB had dramatically reduced adsorption to the vp0980 mutant compared to that to the wild type. Pulldown assays showed that phage tail tubular proteins A and B (TTPA and TTPB) interact with Vp0980, suggesting that Vp0980 is a TTPA and TTPB receptor. Vp0980 lacking the outer membrane region (aa 114–127) could not bind to TTPA and TTPB, resulting in reduced phage adsorption. These results strongly indicated that TTPA and TTPB binding with their receptor Vp0980 mediates phage adsorption and subsequent bacterial lysis. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first report of a bacterial receptor for phage tail tubular proteins.

title: Time Use and Macroeconomic Uncertainty

description: We estimate the effects of economic uncertainty on time use and discuss its macroeconomic implications. Using data from the American Time Use Survey, we first infer cyclical variation in home production and leisure time. We then document that higher uncertainty increases housework and reduces market hours worked, with modest effects on leisure. Finally, we propose a model of housework with time-varying uncertainty that quantitatively accounts for these results. We use the model to demonstrate that substitution between market and non-market work provides an additional insurance margin to households, weakening precautionary savings and labor supply. However, time-use reallocation also lowers aggregate demand, ultimately amplifying the contractionary effects of uncertainty. Policies that reallocate time use toward housework (e.g., lockdown restrictions) amplify the recessionary effects of uncertainty and can result in aggregate dynamics consistent with a supply-side shock.
description: Nous estimons les effets de l’incertitude économique sur l’emploi du temps et discutons de ses implications macroéconomiques. En utilisant les données de l’American Time Use Survey – une enquête sur l’emploi du temps de la population américaine –, nous déduisons tout d’abord les variations cycliques de la production domestique et du temps de loisir. Nous montrons ensuite qu’une incertitude accrue augmente le travail domestique et réduit le nombre d’heures travaillées sur le marché, et n’a que des effets modestes sur les loisirs. Enfin, nous proposons un modèle de travail domestique avec une incertitude variable dans le temps qui rend compte quantitativement de ces résultats. Nous utilisons le modèle pour montrer que la substitution entre le travail marchand et le travail non marchand fournit une marge d’assurance supplémentaire aux ménages, affaiblissant l’épargne et l’offre de travail de précaution. Cependant, la réaffectation du temps diminue également la demande globale, amplifiant ultimement les effets de contraction de l’incertitude. Les politiques qui font augmenter la part de l’emploi du temps consacrée aux tâches ménagères (par exemple, les mesures de confinement) amplifient les effets récessionnistes de l’incertitude et peuvent donner lieu à une dynamique globale compatible avec un choc du côté de l’offre.

description: It has been recently argued that the depletion attraction may play an important role in different aspects of the cellular organization, ranging from the organization of transcriptional activity in transcription factories to the formation of the nuclear bodies. In this paper we suggest a new application of these ideas in the context of the splicing process, a crucial step of messanger RNA maturation in Eukaryotes. We shall show that entropy effects and the resulting depletion attraction may explain the relevance of the aspecific intron length variable in the choice of the splice-site recognition modality. On top of that, some qualitative features of the genome architecture of higher Eukaryotes can find an evolutionary realistic motivation in the light of our model.

description: На текущий момент в России существует запрет на дистанционную продажу алкогольной продукции с доставкой до дома. В итоге данную нишу заняли нелегальные игроки, что напрямую отражается на экономике легальных участников рынка и приводит к меньшим бюджетным доходам. При этом опросы населения подтверждают, что большая доля покупателей не знает о существующих запретах, либо не учитывают ее, а более трети из них не уверены, что смогут распознать поддельную продукцию. В рамках статьи описываются подходы по оценке рынка дистанционных продаж алкоголя с доставкой на дом, и приводятся результаты оценки объемов рынка в зависимости от канала продаж, которые имеют разный уровень легальности и, соответственно, оказывают различное влияние на экономику и выпадающие бюджетные доходы. Проведенный анализ показал, что общий объем нелегальных продаж алкоголя в Интернете оценивается примерно в 30 млрд рублей, из них доля поддельной продукции превышает половину в стоимостном выражении. В связи с этим объем недополученных налоговых доходов в 2022 году за счет работы таких игроков рынка оценивается более чем в 20 млрд рублей. Общий объем продаж в литрах (бутылках) составляет не такую существенную долю от общего потребления алкоголя в России (менее 1,5 %), однако в нелегальной сети доля поддельной продукции оценивается почти в 40%, что создает существенные риски здоровья для населения. Развитие нелегальных онлайн-продаж алкоголя интернете снижает эффективность борьбы с поддельной продукцией, а на отравление алкоголем в России приходится 26% смертей, непосредственно обусловленных употреблением алкоголя. Этот уровень стабилен даже несмотря на то, что после снятия ковидных ограничений потребителям стало проще приобретать продукцию в легальных торговых точках. Это объясняется в том числе и изменившейся моделью потребления, когда две трети покупателей привыкли к онлайн-доставке других продуктов, и не видят (или не знают) причин, почему приобретение алкоголя с доставкой следует избегать. Изменить ситуацию могут решения, позволяющие выйти на рынок легальным игрокам, поскольку на большую долю потребителей при выборе доставки на дом оказывает влияние репутация продавца.
A study of rubidium, strontium and strontium isotopes in some mafic and sulphide minerals

description: Galena from Pine Point, N.W.T. contains less than 0.3 ppm Sr and less than 0.005 ppm Rb with a Rb⁸⁷/Sr⁸⁶ ratio less than 0.2. Sphalerite from the same locality contains 0.070 ± 0.002 ppm Sr and 0.025 ± 0.003 ppm Rb with a Rb⁸⁷/Sr⁸⁶ ratio of 1.05 ± 0.3. Despite large analytical uncertainties in measuring such small quantities of Rb and Sr, it appears sphalerite has a suitable Rb/Sr ratio for age determination. Calcite, Presqu'ile-type dolomite and sparry dolomite associated with Pine Point mineralization have distinct Sr⁸⁷/Sr⁸⁶ ratios of 0.7153, 0.7080 and 0.7096 respectively. A two point isochron defined by sphalerite and sparry dolomite indicates an age of 165 ± 60 m.y. and an initial ratio of 0.7095 ± 0.0001. Sphalerite from the Bluebell Mine, B.C. contains 0.012 ± 0.003 ppm Rb. Phrrhotite and galena from the same locality contain smaller quantities of Rb (0.0022 ± 0.0002 ppm and 0.0003 ± 0.0001 ppm respectively). No reliable Sr analyses are available due to the extremely small amount of Sr present. The relatively large Rb concentration of sphalerite supports the conclusion drawn from analyses of Pine Point sphalerite that the mineral is suitable for age determination. Olivine and orthopyroxene within lherzolite nodules from Boss Mountain and Jacques Lake, B.C. contain 1-2 ppm Sr and 0.1 - 0.01 ppm Rb with Rb⁸⁷/Sr⁸⁶ ratios close to 0.1. Associated clinopyroxene contains from 22-42 ppm Sr, less than 0.3 ppm Rb, with Rb⁸⁷/Sr⁸⁶ ratios close to 0.01. Two nodules from Jacques Lake show apparent isochron relationships for the constituent olivine, orthopyroxene and clinopyroxene giving ages of 2.0 ± 0.1 b.y. and 4.7 ± 2.4 b.y. with initial ratios of 0.7024 ± 0.0001 and 0.7020 ± 0.0004 respectively. Rb-Sr data for the Boss Mountain nodule does not define an isochron, although Sr isotopic disequilibrium between phases is present. It is not yet clear whether the observed Sr isotopic disequilibrium is due to in situ decay of Rb⁸⁷ or to selective contamination of olivine and orthopyroxene prior to their emplacement in the crust.

description: We study two different ways to analyze the Hawking evaporation of a Schwarzschild-de Sitter black hole. The first one uses the standard approach of surface gravity evaluated at the possible horizons. The second method derives its results via the Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP) which offers a yet different method to look at the problem. In the case of a Schwarzschild black hole it is known that this methods affirms the existence of a black hole remnant (minimal mass $M_{\rm min}$) of the order of Planck mass $m_{\rm pl}$ and a corresponding maximal temperature $T_{\rm max}$ also of the order of $m_{\rm pl}$. The standard $T(M)$ dispersion relation is, in the GUP formulation, deformed in the vicinity of Planck length $l_{\rm pl}$ which is the smallest value the horizon can take. We generalize the uncertainty principle to Schwarzschild-de Sitter spacetime with the cosmological constant $\varLambda=1/m_\varLambda^2$ and find a dual relation which, compared to $M_{\rm min}$ and $T_{\rm max}$, affirms the existence of a maximal mass $M_{\rm max}$ of the order $(m_{\rm pl}/m_\varLambda)m_{\rm pl}$, minimum temperature $T_{\rm min} \sim m_\varLambda$. As compared to the standard approach we find a deformed dispersion relation $T(M)$ close to $l_{\rm pl}$ and in addition at the maximally possible horizon approximately at $r_\varLambda=1/m_\varLambda$. $T(M)$ agrees with the standard results at $l_{\rm pl} \ll r \ll r_\varLambda$ (or equivalently at $M_{\rm min} \ll M \ll M_{\rm max}$).
