description: Personality tests are utilized to characterize individual differences in personality traits across species. Currently, there is no objective personality test that can be implemented on-farm to measure personality in dairy calves. Measuring personality of youngstock in the dairy industry may allow producers to utilize information on individual differences for management decisions and limit the investment in unfit individuals. The isolation box test is a personality test that has potential to be adapted and utilized for dairy calves. The main objective of this thesis is to develop, validate, and utilize an isolation box test for use on-farm in dairy calves. More specifically, the objectives of this thesis are to determine if an isolation box test can determine individual differences in dairy calves, if outcomes from the isolation box test agree with outcomes of established standardized personality tests, and if outcomes from an isolation box test can predict performance outcomes through weaning in dairy calves. The measures produced from an isolation box test were associated with outcomes of standardized personality tests (novel person, novel object, and startle tests) and growth through weaning. The isolation box test has potential to be used as a personality test in dairy calves on-farm.

description: We focus on the response of mechanically stable (MS) packings of frictionless, bidisperse disks to thermal fluctuations, with the aim of quantifying how nonlinearities affect system properties at finite temperature. Packings of disks with purely repulsive contact interactions possess two main types of nonlinearities, one from the form of the interaction potential and one from the breaking (or forming) of interparticle contacts. To identify the temperature regime at which the contact-breaking nonlinearities begin to contribute, we first calculated the minimum temperatures $T_{cb}$ required to break a single contact in the MS packing for both single and multiple eigenmode perturbations of the $T=0$ MS packing. We then studied deviations in the constant volume specific heat $C_V$ and deviations of the average disk positions $Δr$ from their $T=0$ values in the temperature regime $T_{cb} < T < T_{r}$, where $T_r$ is the temperature beyond which the system samples the basin of a new MS packing. We find that the deviation in the specific heat per particle $Δ{\overline C}_V^0/{\overline C}_V^0$ relative to the zero temperature value ${\overline C}_V^0$ can grow rapidly above $T_{cb}$, however, the deviation $Δ{\overline C}_V^0/{\overline C}_V^0$ decreases as $N^{-1}$ with increasing system size. To characterize the relative strength of contact-breaking versus form nonlinearities, we measured the ratio of the average position deviations $Δr^{ss}/Δr^{ds}$ for single- and double-sided linear and nonlinear spring interactions. We find that $Δr^{ss}/Δr^{ds} > 100$ for linear spring interactions and is independent of system size.

description: Abstract: "The paper studies the problem of numerical approximations of the critical transition temperature and the energy gap function in the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer equation arising in superconductivity theory. The positive kernel function leads to a phonon dominant state at zero temperature. Much attention is given to the equation defined on a bounded region. Two discretized versions of the equation will be introduced. The first version approximates the desired solution from below, while the second, from above. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the efficiency of the method. Besides, The [sic] approximations of a full space solution and the associated critical temperature by solution sequences constructed on bounded domains are also investigated."

description: We consider the black hole information problem within the context of collapse theories in a scheme that allows the incorporation of the backreaction to the Hawking radiation. We explore the issue in a setting of the two dimensional version of black hole evaporation known as the Russo-Susskind-Thorlacius model. We summarize the general ideas based on the semiclassical version of Einstein's equations and then discuss specific modifications that are required in the context of collapse theories when applied to this model.

description: We have evaluated hyperfine-induced electron spin dynamics for two electrons confined to a double quantum dot. Our quantum solution accounts for decay of a singlet-triplet correlator even in the presence of a fully static nuclear spin system, with no ensemble averaging over initial conditions. In contrast to an earlier semiclassical calculation, which neglects the exchange interaction, we find that the singlet-triplet correlator shows a long-time saturation value that differs from 1/2, even in the presence of a strong magnetic field. Furthermore, we find that the form of the long-time decay undergoes a transition from a rapid Gaussian to a slow power law ($\sim 1/t^{3/2}$) when the exchange interaction becomes nonzero and the singlet-triplet correlator acquires a phase shift given by a universal (parameter independent) value of $3π/4$ at long times. The oscillation frequency and time-dependent phase shift of the singlet-triplet correlator can be used to perform a precision measurement of the exchange interaction and Overhauser field fluctuations in an experimentally accessible system. We also address the effect of orbital dephasing on singlet-triplet decoherence, and find that there is an optimal operating point where orbital dephasing becomes negligible.

We consider the example of fields on $κ$- deformed Minkowski space, transforming under $κ$-deformed Poincaré group with noncommutative parameters. By extending the star product to the tensor product of functions on $κ$-deformed Minkowski space and $κ$-deformed Poincaré group we represent the algebra of noncommutative parameters of deformed relativistic symmetries by functions on classical Poincaré group.

description: Random walks in graphs have been applied to various network exploration and network maintenance problems. In some applications, however, it may be more natural, and more accurate, to model the underlying network not as a graph but as a hypergraph, and solutions based on random walks require a notion of random walks in hypergraphs. At each step, a random walk on a hypergraph moves from its current position v to a random vertex in a randomly selected hyperedge containing v. We consider two definitions of cover time of a hypergraph H. If the walk sees only the vertices it moves between, then the usual definition of cover time, C(H), applies. If the walk sees the complete edge during the transition, then an alternative definition of cover time, the inform time I(H) is used. The notion of inform time models passive listening which fits the following types of situations. The particle is a rumor passing between friends, which is overheard by other friends present in the group at the same time. The particle is a message transmitted randomly from location to location by a directional transmission in an ad-hoc network, but all receivers within the transmission range can hear. In this paper we give an expression for C(H) which is tractable for many classes of hypergraphs, and calculate C(H) and I(H) exactly for random r-regular, s-uniform hypergraphs. We find that for such hypergraph whp C(H)/I(H) = Θ(s) for large s.

description: My project is a search for laser emission lines with the Automated Planet Finder that could be communication from extraterrestrial intelligence. Optical lasers are promising interstellar communication tools, as they offer both high intensity and privacy. I search through 5,866 APF stellar spectra corresponding to 852 stars, identifying all the potential laser signal candidates. I first identify all the pixels above a certain threshold, then fit a Gaussian to each of the detections, and then determine the FWHM of the signal. If the detection is above the threshold, Gaussian-like, and wider than the PSF of the telescope, the signal moves onto the next step in verifying it as an extraterrestrial laser emission line. I identify a total of 45,756 detections in the APF data.
Constraining the Accretion Rate Onto Sagittarius A* Using Linear Polarization

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2000
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Two possible explanations for the low luminosity of the supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy are (1) an accretion rate of order the canonical Bondi value (roughly 10^{-5} solar masses per year), but a very low radiative efficiency for the accreting gas or (2) an accretion rate much less than the Bondi rate. Both models can explain the broad-band spectrum of the Galactic Center. We show that they can be distinguished using the linear polarization of synchrotron radiation. Accretion at the Bondi rate predicts no linear polarization at any frequency due to Faraday depolarization. Low accretion rate models, on the other hand, have much lower gas densities and magnetic field strengths close to the black hole; polarization may therefore be observable at high frequencies. If confirmed, a recent detection of linear polarization from Sgr A$^*$ above 150 GHz argues for an accretion rate of order 10^{-8} solar masses per year, much less than the Bondi rate. This test can be applied to other low-luminosity galactic nuclei.

description: Behavior analogous to that of spontaneous emission in photonic band gap materials has been predicted for an atom-optical system consisting of an atom confined in a well of a state-dependent optical lattice that is coupled to free space through an internal-state transition [de Vega et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 101, 260404 (2008)]. Using the Weisskopf-Wigner approach and considering a one-dimensional geometry, we analyze the properties of this system in detail, including the evolution of the lattice-trapped population, the momentum distribution of emitted matter waves, and the detailed structure of an evanescent matter-wave state below the continuum boundary. We compare and contrast our findings for the transition from Markovian to non-Markovian behaviors to those previously obtained for three dimensions.

description: For a better understanding of the dynamics of exotic nuclei it is of crucial importance to develop a practical microscopic theory easy to be applied to a wide range of masses. Theoretically the basic task consists in formulating an easy solvable theory able to reproduce structures and transitions of known nuclei which should be then used to calculate the sparely known properties of proton- or neutron-rich nuclei. In this paper we start by calculating energies and distributions of A\leq4 nuclei withing a unitary correlation model restricted to include only two-body correlations. The structure of complex nuclei is then calculated extending the model to include correlation effects of higher order.

description: Constructing simpler models, either stochastic or deterministic, for exploring the phenomenon of flow reversals in fluid systems is in vogue across disciplines. Using direct numerical simulations and nonlinear time series analysis, we illustrate that the basic nature of flow reversals in convecting fluids can depend on the dimensionless parameters describing the system. Specifically, we find evidence of low-dimensional determinism in flow reversals occurring at zero Prandtl number, whereas we fail to find such signatures for reversals at infinite Prandtl number. Thus, even in a single system, as one varies the system parameters, one can encounter reversals that are fundamentally different in nature. Consequently, we conclude that a single general low-dimensional deterministic model cannot faithfully characterize flow reversals for every set of parameter values.

description: In 1998 The Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE) successfully implemented automated data reductions for QSO 2237+0305. Using a new image subtraction method we achieved a differential photometry scatter of 1-5 % for images A-D respectively. Combined with a time sampling of 1-2 times a week this is sufficient for early detection of caustic crossings. Nearly real time photometry of QSO 2237+0305 is available from the OGLE web site http://www.astro.princeton.edu/~ogle/ogle2/huchra.html . During the 1999 observing season, the apparent V magnitude of the A, B, C and D images changed by 0.50, 0.15, 0.65 and 0.35 mag, respectively. Most likely however, none of the microlensing events involved a caustic crossing. The most rapid variation was 0.25 mag in 30 days, observed for image C. The alert system will continue to be active in the next observing season from late April until September 2000, when OGLE suspends operation for an upgrade. Observations will resume for season of 2001.

description: Class XI myosins are plant specific and responsible for cytoplasmic streaming. Because of the large number of myosin XI genes in angiosperms, it has been difficult to determine their precise role, particularly with respect to tip growth. The moss Physcomitrella patens provides an ideal system to study myosin XI function. P. patens has only two myosin XI genes, and these genes encode proteins that are 94% identical to each other. To determine their role in tip growth, we used RNA interference to specifically silence each myosin XI gene using 59 untranslated region sequences. We discovered that the two myosin XI genes are functionally redundant, since silencing of either gene does not affect growth or polarity. However, simultaneous silencing of both myosin XIs results in severely stunted plants composed of small rounded cells. Although similar to the phenotype resulting from silencing of other actin-associated proteins, we show that this phenotype is not due to altered actin dynamics. Consistent with a role in tip growth, we show that a functional, full-length fusion of monomeric enhanced green fluorescent protein (mEGFP) to myosin XI accumulates at a subcortical, apical region of actively growing protonemal cells.

description: Finite temperature Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov calculations are performed in Sn isotopes using Skyrme and zero-range, density-dependent pairing interactions. For both stable and very neutron-rich nuclei the critical temperature at which pairing correlations vanish is independent of the volume/surface nature of the pairing interaction. The value of the critical temperature follows approximatively the empirical rule T$_c$ $\simeq$ 0.5 $Δ_{T=0}$ for all the calculated isotopes, showing that the critical temperature could be deduced from the pairing gap at zero temperature. On the other hand, the pairing gap at temperatures just below T$_c$ is strongly sensitive to the volume/surface nature of the pairing interaction.

description: The number of leaves a plant has is one of the key traits (phenotypes) describing its development and growth. Here, we propose an automated, deep learning based approach for counting leaves in model rosette plants. While state-of-the-art results on leaf counting with deep learning methods have recently been reported, they obtain the count as a result of leaf segmentation and thus require per-leaf (instance) segmentation to train the models (a rather strong annotation). Instead, our method treats leaf counting as a direct regression problem and thus only requires as annotation the total leaf count per plant. We argue that combining different datasets when training a deep neural network is beneficial and improves the results of the proposed approach. We evaluate our method on the CVPPP 2017 Leaf Counting Challenge dataset, which contains images of Arabidopsis and tobacco plants. Experimental results show that the proposed method significantly outperforms the winner of the previous CVPPP challenge, improving the results by a minimum of ~50% on each of the test datasets, and can achieve this performance without knowing the experimental origin of the data (i.e. in the wild setting of the challenge). We also compare the counting accuracy of our model with that of per leaf segmentation algorithms, achieving a 20% decrease in mean absolute difference in count (|DiC|).

Nonlinear stochastic biasing from the formation epoch distribution of dark halos
Creators: name: Taruya, Atsushi

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2000
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We propose a physical model for nonlinear stochastic biasing of one-point statistics resulting from the formation epoch distribution of dark halos. In contrast to previous works on the basis of extensive numerical simulations, our model provides for the first time an analytic expression for the joint probability function. Specifically we derive the joint probability function of halo and mass density contrasts from the extended Press-Schechter theory. Since this function is derived in the framework of the standard gravitational instability theory assuming the random-Gaussianity of the primordial density field alone, we expect that the basic features of the nonlinear and stochastic biasing predicted from our model are fairly generic. As representative examples, we compute the various biasing parameters in cold dark matter models as a function of a redshift and a smoothing length. Our major findings are (1) the biasing of the variance evolves strongly as redshift while its scale-dependence is generally weak and a simple linear biasing model provides a reasonable approximation roughly at $R\simgt 2(1+z)\himpc$, and (2) the stochasticity exhibits moderate scale-dependence especially on $R\simlt 20\himpc$, but is almost independent of $z$. Comparison with the previous numerical simulations shows good agreement with the above behavior, indicating that the nonlinear and stochastic nature of the halo biasing is essentially understood by taking account of the distribution of the halo mass and the formation epoch.

description: The beta decay process of the 11Li halo nucleus into 9Li and d is studied in a three-body model. The 11Li nucleus is described as a 9Li+n+n system in hyperspherical coordinates on a Lagrange mesh. Various 9Li+d potentials are compared involving a forbidden state, a physical bound state, and a resonance near 0.25 MeV in the s-wave. With an added surface absorption, they are compatible with elastic scattering data. The transition probability per time unit is quite sensitive to the location of the resonance. For a fixed resonance location, it does not depend much on the potential choice at variance with the 6He delayed deuteron decay. The calculated transition probability per time unit is larger than the experimental value but the difference can be explained by a slightly higher resonance location and/or by absorption from the 9Li+d final channel.

description: We show that the gas in growing density perturbations is vulnerable to the influence of winds outflowing from nearby collapsed galaxies that have already formed stars. This suggests that the formation of nearby galaxies with masses less than 10^9 solar masses is likely to be suppressed, irrespective of the details of galaxy formation. An impinging wind may shock heat the gas of a nearby perturbation to above the virial temperature, thereby mechanically evaporating the gas, or the baryons may be stripped from the perturbation entirely if they are accelerated to above the escape velocity. We show that baryonic stripping is the most effective of these two processes, because shock-heated clouds that are too large to be stripped are able to radiatively cool within a sound-crossing time, limiting evaporation. The intergalactic medium temperatures and star-formation rates required for outflows to have a significant influence on the formation of low-mass galaxies are consistent with current observations, but may soon be examined directly via associated distortions in the cosmic microwave background, and with near-infrared observations from the Next Generation Space Telescope, which may detect the supernovae from early-forming stars.

description: As global environmental problems worsen, issues related to the closed-loop supply chain and trade-in program have gained wide attention. We construct a dual-market model to explore trade-in program and remanufacturing strategies under two scenarios: original equipment manufacturer (OEM) recycling and retailer recycling. We find that under single market strategies, OEM recycling consumers benefit more with the reduction of new product costs. Interestingly, the opposite is true under dual-market strategies with an increase in consumers' maximum willingness to pay in the secondary market. Optimal choices regarding trade-in program strategies and remanufacturing strategies depend on different value ranges of consumers’ maximum willingness to pay in the secondary market, and the cost of the new product.

The crystal structure has been completely determined showing that it is the only member of the MC6, metal-graphite compounds, which has rhombohedral symmetry. We have clearly shown the occurrence of superconductivity in the bulk sample at 11.5K, using magnetization measurements.

description: Each time a learner in a self-paced online course seeks to answer an assessment question, it takes some time for the student to read the question and arrive at an answer to submit. If multiple attempts are allowed, and the first answer is incorrect, it takes some time to provide a second answer. Here we study the distribution of such "response times." We find that the log-normal statistical model for such times, previously suggested in the literature, holds for online courses. Users who, according to this model, tend to take longer on submits are more likely to complete the course, have a higher level of engagement, and achieve a higher grade. This finding can be the basis for designing interventions in online courses, such as MOOCs, which would encourage "fast" users to slow down.

Noncommutative String Worldsheets from Matrix Models

description: We study dynamical effects of introducing noncommutativity on string worldsheets by using a matrix model obtained from the zero-volume limit of four-dimensional SU($N$) Yang-Mills theory. Although the dimensionless noncommutativity parameter is of order 1/N, its effect is found to be non-negligible even in the large $N$ limit due to the existence of higher Fourier modes. We find that the Poisson bracket grows much faster than the Moyal bracket as we increase $N$, which means in particular that the two quantities do not coincide in the large $N$ limit. The well-known instability of bosonic worldsheets due to long spikes is shown to be cured by the noncommutativity. The extrinsic geometry of the worldsheet is described by a crumpled surface with a large Hausdorff dimension.

description: By conceptual infrastructure of mathematics I mean the concepts, the terminology, the symbols, and the notations that mathematicians and people who apply mathematics use in their daily professional activities. This is very different from what is often called the conceptual foundation of mathematics, which deals critically with the deeper meaning of these concepts, an activity which only some mathematicians, and these only occasionally, worry about. I believe that the infrastructure of mathematics was and still is being developed in four stages.

description: We prove the conjecture of Seymour (1993) that for every apex-forest $H_1$ and outerplanar graph $H_2$ there is an integer $p$ such that every 2-connected graph of pathwidth at least $p$ contains $H_1$ or $H_2$ as a minor. An independent proof was recently obtained by Dang and Thomas.

description: The dependence of inter-particle correlations on the orientation of particle relative-momentum can yield unique information on the space-time features of emission in reactions with multiparticle final states. In the present paper, the benefits of a representation and analysis of the three-dimensional correlation information in terms of surface spherical harmonics is presented. The harmonics include the standard complex tesseral harmonics and the real cartesian harmonics. Mathematical properties of the lesser-known cartesian harmonics are illuminated. The physical content of different angular harmonic components in a correlation is described. The resolving power of different final-state effects with regarding to determining angular features of emission regions is investigated. The considered final-state effects include identity interference and strong and Coulomb interactions. The correlation analysis in terms of spherical harmonics is illustrated with the cases of gaussian and blast-wave sources for proton-charged meson and baryon-baryon pairs.

Raising Bi-O bands above the Fermi energy level of hole-doped Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+δ}$ and other cuprate superconductors

description: The Fermi surface (FS) of Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+δ}$ (Bi2212) predicted by band theory displays Bi-related pockets around the $(π,0)$ point, which have never been observed experimentally. We show that when the effects of hole doping either by substituting Pb for Bi or by adding excess O in Bi2212 are included, the Bi-O bands are lifted above the Fermi energy ($E_F$) and the resulting first-principles FS is in remarkable accord with measurements. With decreasing hole-doping the Bi-O bands drop below $E_F$ and the system self-dopes below a critical hole concentration. Computations on other Bi- as well as Tl- and Hg-based compounds indicate that lifting of the cation-derived band with hole doping is a general property of the electronic structures of the cuprates.

description: BRIEF SUMMARY: This study traces the influence of the Government of Canada’s human resources management system, as a form of organizational discourse, in how policy practice is constructed in a moral form within the institutional setting. The study aims to move beyond the conceptual and theoretical models of policy analysis present in the current literature to explore what policy ‘work’ entails in practice. RESEARCH QUESTION: How has organizational discourse, through the use of human resources management instruments, led to an institutional morality construction of the work of policy analysts within the Canadian civil service? THEORETICAL APPROACH: The study views the emergence of the policy analysis function as a response to early twentieth century modernization and rationalization reforms undertaken by western public administrations. By using Foucauldian perspectives on the exercise of power through the use of discourse, the study maps out how the Government of Canada used discursive instruments to instill particular values and behaviors on the manifestation of policy work by civil servants. METHODOLOGY: The study proposes the use of critical discourse analysis to study human resource management instruments, namely recruitment material, where written language is used to delineate an occupational jurisdiction for policy workers. The analysis of these texts will be used to formulate a morality for how policy analysis ‘work’ is ought to be practiced by policy analyst practitioners.
