description: The electronic structures, lattice dynamics, and magnetic properties of crystal β-FeSe under hydrostatic pressure have been studied by using the first-principles electronic structure calculations with van der Waals (vdW) corrections. With applied pressures, the energy bands around the Fermi energy level consisting mainly of Fe-3d orbitals show obvious energy shifts and occupation variations, and meanwhile the frequencies of all optical phonon modes increase. Among these phonon modes, the A1g mode, which relates to the Se height from the Fe-Fe plane, shows a clear frequency jump in the range between 5 and 6 GPa. This is also the pressure range within which the highest superconducting transition temperature Tc of FeSe is reached in experiments. In comparison with the other phonon modes, the zero-point vibration of the A1g mode induces the strongest fluctuation of local magnetic moment on Fe under a pressure from 0 to 9 GPa, and the induced fluctuation reaches the maximum around 5 GPa. These results suggest that the effect of phonon via spin-phonon coupling need to be considered when exploring the superconducting mechanism in iron-based superconductors.

description: Le territoire qui nous entoure regorge de potentialités didactiques pour l’enseignement de la géographie au secondaire 2. L’objectif principal de ce mémoire est d’identifier les modalités d’appropriation des outils que le territoire propose pour permettre une réalisation des apprentissages des élèves. Comment utiliser cet environnement lausannois en tant qu’enseignant-e-s pour faire prendre conscience aux élèves de leur manière de pratiquer l’espace qui les entoure ? Et comment leur permettre d’apprendre à se repérer, s’orienter, replacer les informations qu’ils ont en leur possession dans cet ensemble géographique déterminé ? L’enjeu est de taille dans la mesure où le rôle de l’enseignant-e est de favoriser le développement d’une partie de leurs capacités cognitives et métacognitives. Après avoir défini les objets d’apprentissage, les concepts en jeu puis les finalités d’apprentissage, le tout en lien avec les plans d’étude de l’école de maturité, de l’école de culture générale et de l’école de commerce, il s’agissait d’analyser les caractéristiques principales du territoire lausannois afin de susciter un intérêt chez les élèves pour la réalisation de schémas spatiaux. Le travail, réalisé par groupes dans une classe de 2M et dans une classe de 2CAR, s’est focalisé sur les grands projets lausannois de mobilité et de transformation de l’espace public. Trois places publiques ont fait l’objet de terrain d’étude pour les élèves : la place de l’Europe, la place Chauderon et la place Saint-François. Les deux difficultés principales envisagées pour cet exercice se sont, finalement, révélées infondées : d’une part, l’exercice n’est pas plus difficile pour une classe de deuxième année d’école de culture générale que pour une classe de deuxième année d’école de maturité, et d’autre part, le travail en autonomie sur le terrain n’est pas un obstacle : les élèves prennent à coeur leur rôle de citoyen acteurs de leur avenir. Force est de constater que la géographie prospective, pratiquée de manière créatrice à travers des schémas spatiaux, permet d’utiliser le territoire qui nous entoure en le transformant en véritable source didactique.

Esenbeckia pangonina

description: Esenbeckia pangonina Rondani, 1863
ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1863: 83.
TYPE LOCALITY: “ aus Brasilien [Brazil]” (Wiedemann 1830: 623)] [type locality for Silvius esenbeckii Wiedemann, 1830].
TYPE MATERIAL: see Remarks.
CURRENT STATUS: unjustified new name for Esenbeckia esenbeckii (Wiedemann, 1830) (Wilkerson & Fairchild 1983: 537); junior synonym of Esenbeckia esenbeckii (Wiedemann, 1830) (Fairchild 1971: 7, Coscarón & Papavero 2009: 23).
REMARKS: Rondani (1863: 83) proposed Esenbeckia as a new genus and identified Silvius esenbeckii Wiedemann, 1830 as the type species. Having used the epithet for the new nominal genus and thinking that the name Esenbeckia esenbeckii was incorrect, Rondani erroneously substituted it with Esenbeckia pangonina. Kertész (1908: 180), Lutz (1909: 669), Fairchild (1971: 7) and Wilkerson & Fairchild (1983: 537) placed this name in synonymy with Esenbeckia esenbeckii while Lynch-Arribálzaga (1882: 131) and Ricardo (1901: 297) treated it as a valid species. The type material for Esenbeckia pangonina will be the same as for the name it was proposed to replace, i. e., Silvius esenbeckii. The type material of this latter species is preserved in the NHMW (Fairchild 1967: 84). O’Hara et al. (2011: 83) selected Esenbeckia as the correct original spelling and considered Esenbekia as an unavailable name.

The resulting shock profiles demonstrate tensor temperature, with the longitudinal temperature exceeding the transverse, and Maxwell's delayed response, with stress lagging strainrate and heat flux lagging temperature gradient. Here this same geometry, supplemented by a short-ranged external "plug" field, is used to simulate steady Joule-Kelvin throttling flow of hot dense fluid through a porous plug, producing a dilute and cooler product fluid.

Method for Assessing Texture Reproduction of Camera-phone-based Medical Devices
Creators: name: Regulatory Catalog
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: This tool is a method that enables users and manufacturers to perform rapid and robust texture reproduction assessment of camera-phone-based medical devices (CPMDs). The assessment method needs a test target below. The exact design of the target might vary. The target has a central texture region (also called the DL region) that consists of a series of overlapping low-contrast discs. The discs have varying radii and uniformly distributed gray levels; giving an accurate stochastic occlusion model that mimics a natural scene. Images of the target will be captures by a CPMD and then averaged to remove noise. The averaged image will then be evaluated for texture loss compared with the target. Camera-phone-based medical devices represent a major emerging platform for point-of-care diagnostic imaging of biological tissue. However, camera phones lack complex lens systems and large sensors used on digital single-lens-reflex cameras in order to minimize final system weight and manufacturing cost, while still achieving satisfactory performance for consumers. Hardware shortcomings are often compensated with extensive image modifications performed by an image signal processor. Consequently, images captured by a CPMD commonly contain residual noise and artifacts introduced in the image processing steps, which might cause texture loss and thus affect CPMD effectiveness.

description: Resolution of Holliday junctions is a critical intermediate step of homologous recombination in which junctions are processed by junction-resolving endonucleases. Although binding and cleavage are well understood, the question remains how the enzymes locate their substrate within long duplex DNA. Here we track fluorescent dimers of endonuclease I on DNA, presenting the complete single-molecule reaction trajectory for a junction-resolving enzyme finding and cleaving a Holliday junction. We show that the enzyme binds remotely to dsDNA and then undergoes 1D diffusion. Upon encountering a four-way junction, a catalytically-impaired mutant remains bound at that point. An active enzyme, however, cleaves the junction after a few seconds. Quantitative analysis provides a comprehensive description of the facilitated diffusion mechanism. We show that the eukaryotic junction-resolving enzyme GEN1 also undergoes facilitated diffusion on dsDNA until it becomes located at a junction, so that the general resolution trajectory is probably applicable to many junction resolving enzymes.

How much dust is available for planet formation?
Creators: name: Tychoniec, Lukasz
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: In recent years evidence has been building that planet formation starts early, in the first 0.5 Myr. Therefore the physical conditions at the early stages of star formation are crucial to understanding the origin of the planetary systems. We use Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) observations of embedded disks in Perseus together with existing Very Large Array (VLA) data to provide a robust estimate of disk masses and to compare the Perseus survey of dust masses with other ALMA surveys of young and mature disks. We put the disk mass estimates in the context of known exoplanetary systems. The dust masses of disks in Class 0/I are significantly larger than those inferred for Class II disks in other regions. The masses of Class 0 and I disks in Perseus can produce the observed exoplanet systems with efficiencies acceptable by planet formation models. The most massive observed exoplanets can still be produced by the most massive Class 0 disks with an efficiency of 15%, higher efficiencies are needed if the planet formation starts in Class I. Constraining the starting point of the planet formation and the mass reservoir available is crucial for modern models of the planet formation.

description: We extend a formula for 1-loop black hole determinants by Denef, Hartnoll, and Sachdev (DHS) to spinning fields on any $(d+1)$-dimensional static spherically symmetric black hole. By carefully analyzing the regularity condition imposed on the Euclidean eigenfunctions, we reveal an unambiguous bulk-edge split in the 1-loop Euclidean partition function for tensor fields of arbitrary integer spin: the bulk part captures the "renormalized" thermal canonical partition function recently discussed in arXiv:2207.07024; the edge part is related to quasinormal modes (QNMs) that fail to analytically continue to a subset of Euclidean modes with enhanced fall-offs near the origin. Since the edge part takes the form of a path integral on $S^{d-1}$, this suggests that these are associated with degrees of freedom living on the bifurcation surface in the Lorentzian two-sided black hole geometry. For massive higher spin on static BTZ and massive vector on Nariai black holes, we find that the edge partition function is related to the QNMs with lowest overtone numbers.

description: The notions of consistent pairs and consistent chains of t-structures are introduced. A theorem that two consistent chains of t-structures generate a distributive lattice is proven. The technique developed is then applied to the pairs of chains obtained from the standard t-structure on the derived category of coherent sheaves and the dual t-structure by means of the shift functor. This yields a family of t-structures whose hearts are known as perverse coherent sheaves.

description: It is highly desirable to combine recent advances in the topological quantum phases with technologically relevant materials. Chromium dioxide (CrO2) is a half-metallic material, widely used in high-end data storage applications. Using first principles calculations, we show via interfacial orbital design that a novel class of half semi-metallic Dirac electronic phase emerges at the interface CrO2 with TiO2 in both thin film and superlattice configurations, with four spin-polarized Dirac points in momentum-space (k-space) band structure. When the spin and orbital degrees of freedom are allowed to couple, the CrO2/TiO2 superlattice becomes a Chern insulator without external fields or additional doping. With topological gaps equivalent to 43 Kelvin and a Chern number 2, the ensuing quantization of Hall conductance to 2e^2/h will enable potential development of these highly industrialized oxides for applications in topologically high fidelity data storage and energy-efficient electronic and spintronic devices.

Delayed Channel State Information: Incremental Redundancy with Backtrack Retransmission
Creators: name: Popovski, Petar
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Information Theory (cs.IT)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: In many practical wireless systems, the Signal-to-Interference-and-Noise Ratio (SINR) that is applicable to a certain transmission, referred to as Channel State Information (CSI), can only be learned after the transmission has taken place and is thereby outdated (delayed). For example, this occurs under intermittent interference. We devise the backward retransmission (BRQ) scheme, which uses the delayed CSIT to send the optimal amount of incremental redundancy (IR). BRQ uses fixed-length packets, fixed-rate R transmission codebook, and operates as Markov block coding, where the correlation between the adjacent packets depends on the amount of IR parity bits. When the delayed CSIT is full and R grows asymptotically, the average throughput of BRQ becomes equal to the value achieved with prior CSIT and a fixed-power transmitter; however, at the expense of increased delay. The second contribution is a method for employing BRQ when a limited number of feedback bits is available to report the delayed CSIT. The main novelty is the idea to assemble multiple feedback opportunities and report multiple SINRs through vector quantization. This challenges the conventional wisdom in ARQ protocols where feedback bits are used to only quantize the CSIT of the immediate previous transmission.

description: Veterinarians are in a natural position to interact with dairymen within the scope of financial herd health. They are on the dairies frequently, see management as it is and not as it is supposed to be, understand the interactions of feeds, facilities, cows, labor and management, and are among the most trusted of service providers. Today dairy farmers rely more on capital and less on labor and land. Additionally, major changes in the lending business climate has resulted in a decrease in commercial banks willing to make loans of less than one million dollars. Liability concerns and awards have made bankers reluctant to offer management advice or counsel of any type. Veterinarian's ongoing monitoring programs within the herd health area, including reproduction, calf, mastitis and nutritional programs, fit well with financial monitoring. There are more non-veterinary consultants promoting their services, frequently in areas traditionally thought of as within the veterinarian's scope of expertise. The profession needs to solidify its position with the dairy industry and providing seivices within the financial area can help both dairymen and veterinarians. Accumulating and reporting this data along with other herd management monitors makes sense. The profession needs to continue its movement towards a fee for knowledge reward system and away from being paid only for technical labor. Finally, veterinarians are also lenders to dairymen, and need to protect their investment by assisting their debtors to be profitable, liquid and solvent.

Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy
Creators: name: Robinson, Mark M.
Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 1991

description: Between November, 1986, and August, 1991, 35,100 clinical cases of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) were confirmed histopathologically by the staff of the Central Veterinary Laboratory (CVL) Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food in Weybridge, England. It is not known how many cases of BSE went unreported during this time period, but informal estimates range from several hundred to several thousand. These losses occurred within the prime production population of the United Kingdom's dairy and beef herds which number approximately four million adult animals (twelve million total cattle) in a geographic area approximately the size of Oregon. During the same period, novel spongiform encephalopathies were confirmed in nine zoo animals of various species, but all from the family bovidae. Also, spongiform encephalopathy was confirmed in nineteen domestic cats during the last sixteen months, and BSE was identified in native-born dairy cattle in Switzerland (7 cases confirmed) and France (4 cases confirmed) during the past ten months. The advent of a novel, progressive, and transmissible spongiform encephalopathy in cattle and its rise to epidemic levels in the United Kingdom has caused substantial economic hardship for the dairy, beef, and rendering industries of that country. In addition, it has led to increased public concern about the quality of agricultural products in general and the effectiveness of the government agencies that regulate the production and consumption of those products. These concerns have been transmitted internationally such that a recurring question in Europe and the Americas is "Can BSE happen here?". A simple answer to this question is not available, but awareness on the part of U.S. bovine practitioners of the disease characteristics and the factors that contributed to the problem in the U.K. will help prevent a BSE-like epidemic from occurring in the United States.

description: In New York State, coveralls have long been the attire of choice for bovine practitioners. However, after only a few years in practice I had become disenchanted with cloth coveralls. They were too hot and heavy in the summer. My wife tired of constantly sewing rips and tears. Worst of all, laundry was a constant chore because both the coveralls and the clothes under them were dirty on a daily basis. After months of searching for a better alternative to coveralls, I was introduced to KOOL DRI RAINWEAR while visiting some veterinarians in Wisconsin. They weigh only 12 ounces yet are durable enough to survive veterinary work. While they block the wind in the winter they remain cool and breathable in the summer. Best of all, they are waterproof so manure, urine, blood, and uterine fluids do not soak through.

description: Ocean bottom seismic observations within the 9°50′N region of the East Pacific Rise indicate persistent, low-amplitude tremor activity throughout the October 2003 through February 2007 period of monitoring. These signals exhibit either monochromatic or polychromatic spectral characteristics, with a ∼6 Hz fundamental frequency and up to two harmonics. Individual events cannot be correlated between nearby (<1 km) stations, implying the presence of multiple, small-amplitude sources positioned within the shallow crust. Tremor exhibits a semidiurnal periodicity, with some stations recording activity during times of increasing tidal extension and others detecting tremor signals during times of increasing compression. The amplitude, duration, and rate of activity also correlate positively with fortnightly changes in the amplitude of the tides. These spatiotemporal patterns are consistent with tremor generation in response to tidally modulated fluid flow within a network of shallow cracks. Tremor energy flux is spatially and temporally heterogeneous; however, there are extended periods of greater and lesser activity that can be tracked across portions of the array. Despite their shallow crustal origin, changes in tremor amplitude and spectral character occur in the months prior to a major microearthquake swarm and inferred seafloor spreading event on 22 January 2006, with an increase in the degree of correlation between tremor activity and tidal strain in the weeks leading up to this event. After the spreading event, two eruption-surviving stations near the axis continue to show high rates of tremor activity, whereas these signals are suppressed at the single station recovered from the near-axis flanks. This off-axis quiescence may result from the dike-induced closing of cracks or perhaps from the emplacement of impermeable flows near the station.

description: We are concerned with the complexity reduction of a stochastic system of differential equations governing the dynamics of a neuronal circuit describing a decision-making task. This reduction is based on the slow-fast behavior of the problem and holds on the whole phase space and not only locally around the spontaneous state. Macroscopic quantities, such as performance and reaction times, computed applying this reduction are in agreement with previous works in which the complexity reduction is locally performed at the spontaneous point by means of a Taylor expansion.

description: Recently, the availability of new high-spatial and -temporal resolution observations of the solar photosphere has allowed the study of the oscillations in small magnetic elements. Small magnetic elements have been found to host a rich variety of oscillations detectable as intensity, longitudinal or transverse velocity fluctuations which have been interpreted as MHD waves. Small magnetic elements, at or below the current spatial resolution achieved by modern solar telescopes, are though to play a relevant role in the energy budget of the upper layers of the Sun's atmosphere, as they are found to cover a significant fraction of the solar photosphere. Unfortunately, the limited temporal length and/or cadence of the data sets, or the presence of seeing-induced effects have prevented, so far, the estimation of the power spectra of kink-like oscillations in small magnetic elements with good accuracy. Motivated by this, we studied kink-like oscillations in small magnetic elements, by exploiting very long duration and high-cadence data acquired with the Solar Optical Telescope on board the Hinode satellite. In this work we present the results of this analysis, by studying the power spectral density of kink-like oscillations on a statistical basis. We found that small magnetic elements exhibit a large number of spectral features in the range 1-12 mHz. More interestingly, most of these spectral features are not shared among magnetic elements but represent a unique signature of each magnetic element itself.

description: Tabanus brasiliensis Rondani, 1850
ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1850c: 192.
TYPE LOCALITY: “ Du Brésil [Brazil]” (Macquart 1847: 30) [type locality for Tabanus rufus (Macquart, 1847)].
TYPE MATERIAL: see Remarks.
CURRENT STATUS: junior synonym of Dichelacera januarii (Wiedemann, 1819) (Fairchild 1971: 62, Coscarón & Papavero 2009: 84); junior synonym of Dichelacera fasciata Walker, 1850 (new synonymy, this work). See Remarks.
REMARKS: Rondani (1850c: 192) moved Dichelacera rufa Macquart, 1847 to the genus Tabanus Linnaeus, 1758 and proposed the new replacement name Tabanus brasiliensis for Tabanus rufus (Macquart, 1847), preoccupied by Scopoli (1763: 373). Philip (1965a: 120) and Fairchild (1971: 62) incorrectly reported a female type as in the MRSN. The type material for Tabanus brasiliensis will be the same as for the name it was proposed to replace, i. e., Tabanus rufus. There is no type of this latter species in the MHNL (O. Boilly, pers. comm., 2019), MNHN (Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle 2020), or OUMNH (Z. Simmons, pers. comm., 2019) where Macquart’s collection is preserved. Dichelacera rufa is currently treated as a junior synonym of Dichelacera fasciata Walker, 1850 (Coscarón & Papavero 2009: 84); thus, Tabanus brasiliensis Rondani, 1850 is a junior synonym of Dichelacera fasciata Walker, 1850, new synonymy.

description: An effective records system can be utilized in a variety of ways in most intensive animal husbandry systems. Individual animals can be tracked to assess diseases they have been treated for as well as the treatments provided to them. The information provided to us regarding disease frequency can guide decision making processes regarding vaccination protocols and prophylactic measures to reduce the impact of these diseases in the future. The records system should also provide us information regarding the antibiotics utilized for treatment of infectious diseases and the length of time the antibiotics were provided to the animal. Information regarding the type of antibiotic utilized and time it was administered to the animal is crucial information for determining if adequate withdrawal time has been achieved and the animal can be safely shipped for slaughter.

Bovine Gastric and Intestinal Cryptosporidiosis

Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 1991

description: This writer intends to provide information which will be useful or may be useful, next week in the practices of cattle practitioners. Comments on epidemiology, control and zoonotic potential of Cryptosporidium parvum (intestinal pathogen) were solicited for an oral presentation at the recent meeting of the American Association of Bovine Practitioners. But, from day-to-day bovine practice standpoint, there isn't much to say about this intestinal pathogen, despite the publication of about 1000 articles on cryptosporidiosis in the past 10 years. In fact, William Current and Lynn Garcia stated recently in a review article1 (357 references) that, "Despite the large number of recent papers and the large number of laboratories throughout the world devoting significant effort in Cryptosporidium research, our present understanding of this protozoan parasite is very limited." Dubey, Speer and Fayer have published a complete reference book (1047 ref.) on cryptosporidiosis.2 Many of the details of the following may be found among the references in these two sources. Some preliminary informaton on the newly-discovered gastric pathogen of cattle, Cryptosporidium muris was added to the above-mentioned talk and has been added to this paper. Our understanding about this gastric cryptosporidial parasite is also limited because it simply hasn't been studied. Mention of the parasite here and results of preliminary investigations should stimulate some interest in promoting further study of this possibly significant chronic parasitism of the stomach of production animals. Cryptosporidia are coccidial protozoan parasites related to the well-known eimerial coccidia; in other words, they are in the suborder, Eimeriorina. The original definitions were of the gastric and intestinal forms, C. muris and C. parvum, respectively, isolated from mice. Today the C. parvum designation is applied to isolates which cause enteritis in numerous mammalian species including humans. The C. muris organism differs from the enteric C, parvum not only in location (stomach) but in size and shape of oocyst. (See section on C. muris).

Pharmacology in Neonatal Calves

Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 1991

description: Although many of the same pathogens that invade the juvenile or adult bovine also can produce disease in the neonatal calf, several physiological differences in the neonate make it much different than just a "miniature cow". These physiological differences can alter the disposition of pharmaceutical agents (pharmacokinetics) in the neonate as well as alter the response of the neonate to a specific therapeutic agent (pharmacodynamics). After a brief overview of some terms used in pharmacokinetics, this paper will describe some physiological differences in neonates compared to adult cattle that are pertinent in drug disposition and response. Next, some specific examples of developmental changes in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics will be described. Finally, some recommendations for drug therapy in neonatal calves will be suggested.

description: We investigate the possibility of using the cross-correlation of the Lyman-alpha forest and redshifted 21-cm emission to detect the baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO). The standard Fisher matrix formalism is used to determine the accuracy with which it will be possible to measure cosmological distances using this signal. Earlier predictions indicate that it will be possible to measure the dilation factor D_V with 1.9 % accuracy at z=2.5 from the BOSS Lyman-alpha forest auto-correlation. In this paper we investigate if it is possible to improve the accuracy using the cross-correlation. We use a simple parametrization of the Lyman-alpha forest survey which very loosely matches some properties of BOSS and predicts delta D_V/D_V = 2.0 % for the auto-correlation at z=2.5. For the redshifted 21-cm observations we consider individual antennas of size 2 m * 2 m distributed such that the baselines within 250 m are uniformly sampled. It is assumed that the observations span z=2 to 3 and covers the 10,000 deg^2 sky coverage of BOSS. We find that for 2 years of observation with an array of 2,000 antennas, the cross-correlation is 1.7 times more sensitive than the Lyman-alpha forest auto-correlation. The cross-correlation is 2.7 times more sensitive than the auto-correlation if we have 4,000 antennas and 4 years of observation. In conclusion, we find that it is possible to significantly increase the accuracy of the distance estimates by considering the cross-correlation signal.

description: Astrophysical models of planet formation require accurate radiometric dating of meteoritic components by short-lived (Al-Mg, Mn-Cr, Hf-W) and long-lived (Pb-Pb) chronometers, to develop a timeline of such events in the solar nebula as formation of Ca-rich, Al-rich Inclusions (CAIs), chondrules, planetesimals, etc. CAIs formed mostly around a time ("t=0") when the short-lived radionuclide 26Al (t1/2 = 0.72 Myr) was present and presumably homogeneously distributed at a known level we define as (26Al/27Al)SS = 5.23 x10^-5. The time of formation after t=0 of another object can be found by determining its initial (26Al/27Al)0 ratio and comparing it to (26Al/27Al)SS. Dating of meteoritic objects using the Mn-Cr or Hf-W systems is hindered because the abundances (53Mn/55Mn)SS and (182Hf/180Hf)SS at t=0 are not known precisely. To constrain these quantities, we compile literature Al-Mg, Mn-Cr, Hf-W and Pb-Pb data for 14 achondrites and use novel statistical techniques to minimize the discrepancies between their times of formation across these systems. We find that for (53Mn/55Mn)SS = (8.09+/-0.65)x10^-6, (182Hf/180Hf)SS = (10.42+/-0.25)x10^-5, tSS = 4568.36+/-0.20 Myr, and a 53Mn half-life of 3.80+/-0.23 Myr, these four free parameters make concordant 37 formation times recorded by the different systems in 14 achondrites. These parameters also make concordant the ages derived for chondrules from CB/CH achondrites, formed simultaneously in an impact, and are apparently concordant with the I-Xe chronometer as well. Our findings provide very strong support for homogeneity of 26Al, 53Mn, and 182Hf in the solar nebula, and our approach offers a framework for more precise chronometry.
