description: Nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond allow for coherent spin state manipulation at room temperature, which could bring dramatic advances to nanoscale sensing and quantum information technology. We introduce a novel method for the optical measurement of the spin contrast in dense nitrogen-vacancy (NV) ensembles. This method brings a new insight into the interplay between the spin contrast and fluorescence lifetime. We show that for improving the spin readout sensitivity in NV ensembles, one should aim at modifying the far field radiation pattern rather than enhancing the emission rate.

description: Over sixty years ago, geography began its so-called quantitative revolution, where for the first time statistical methods were used to explain the spatial nature of geographic phenomena. Computers made some of this possible, but their limited power did not allow for more than relatively small analytic explorations and consequently many of these earlier ideas are now buried in the mists of time. Here we attempt to replicate one of these early analyses using taxi flow data collected in 1962 and originally used by Goddard (1970; then at the London School of Economics) to extract functional regions within London's city center. Our experiment attempts to replicate Goddard's methodology on a modern taxi flow data set, acquired through Global Positioning System tracking. We initially expected that our analysis would be directly comparable with Goddard's, potentially providing insights into temporal change in the spatial structure of the city core. Attempts at replicating the original analysis have proved enormously difficult, however, for several reasons, including the many subjective choices made by the researcher in articulating and using the original method and the specific characteristics of contemporary taxi flow data. We therefore opt to replicate Goddard's approach as closely and as logically as possible and to fill in gaps based on statistically informed choices. We have also run the analysis on two spatial scales—Central London and a wider area—to explore how scales of analyses that were beyond the capacities of Goddard's early computations also help to shape our understanding of the results he obtained.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.A study of Rossia macrosoma in Portuguese waters with emphasis on it’s biogeographical, biological and biochemical characteristics is presented. Approximately 1000 specimens collected in 32 cruises between 1990 and 2003 are used to determine the distribution and abundance of the species. Weight, length, sex and maturity information is analysed. The first biochemical characterization of the species at different stages of gonad development is made. The species occurs from the coast to 860m depth, concentrating between 300 and 600m. It is present along the whole Portuguese coast, but most records are made south of 38ºN, particularly in the Algarve. The sex-ratio is approximately 1:1 and it doesn’t vary with depth or position along the coast (p>>0.05). Females grow larger (84:67mm ML) and heavier (161:100g tBW) than males. Mature specimens of both sexes constitute <1% of all records. Immature and maturing specimens are found year around, without significant differences between female monthly distributions (p>0.05). No significant difference between sexes in the distribution of maturity stages with depth or position along the coast is noted (p>>0.05). During sexual maturation, there was a significant increase (p<0.05) of total amino acid, protein, lipid and fatty acid contents in the gonad, but the allocation of these organic compounds from digestive gland and muscle was not evident. It seems that biochemical dynamics of these two tissues may be influenced by other biotic factors and the energy required for egg production may come directly from food, rather than from stored reserves.

description: Domain walls in ferroelectrics exhibit a plethora of phases and functionalities not found in the bulk. The interplay of electrostatic, chemical, topological, and distortive inhomogeneities at the walls can be so complex, however, that this obstructs their technological performance. In tetragonal ferroelectrics like PbZrxTi1-xO3, for example, the desired functional 180° domain walls within out-of-plane-polarized c-domains are interspersed by in-plane-polarized a-domains and the associated network of domain walls remains challenging to analyze. Here we use a combination of STEM and optical second harmonic generation (SHG) to determine the relation between strain, film thickness, local electric fields and the resulting domain and domain-wall structures across the entire thickness of a set of PZT films. We quantify the distribution of a-domains in the c-domain matrix of the films. Using locally applied electric fields we control the a/c distribution and induce the technologically preferable 180° domain walls. We find that these voltage induced walls are tilted and exhibit a mixed Ising-Néel type transverse rotation of polarization across the wall with a specific nonlinear optical response.

description: We analyse the spectra of the archival XMM-Newton data of the Seyfert 1 AGN Zw 229.015 in the energy range $0.3 - 10.0$ keV. When fitted with a simple power-law, the spectrum shows signatures of weak soft excess below 1.0 keV. We find that both thermal comptonisation and relativistically blurred reflection models provide the most acceptable spectral fits with plausible physical explanations to the origin of the soft excess than do multicolour disc blackbody and smeared wind absorption models. This motivated us to study the variability properties of the soft and the hard X-ray emissions from the source and the relationship between them to put further constraints on the above models. Our analysis reveals that the variation in the $3.0 - 10.0$ keV band lags that in the $0.3 - 1.0$ keV by $600^{+290}_{-280}$ s, while the lag between the $1.0 - 10.0$ keV and $0.3 - 1.0$ keV is $980^{+500}_{-500}$ s. This implies that the X-ray emissions are possibly emanating from different regions within the system. From these values, we estimate the X-ray emission region to be within $20R_g$ of the central supermassive black hole (where $R_g=GM/c^2$, $M$ is the mass of black hole, $G$ the Newton gravitational constant and $c$ the speed of light). Furthermore, we use XMM-Newton and Kepler photometric lightcurves of the source to search for possible nonlinear signature in the flux variability. We find evidence that the variability in the system may be dominated by stochasticity rather than deterministic chaos which has implications for the dynamics of the accretion system.

Year: 2010

description: The freestall barn has emerged as the dominant housing system in North America and, with it, dairy cows face new challenges, trying to adapt their behavior in response to the new environment and management practices. The freestall design has been shown to impact cow performance, and essential activities such as feeding or resting are dependent on it. Deep understanding of how dairy cows distribute their activities during the day can be translated in enhanced facility designs and improved management practices. This study aimed to examine the relationships between the cow's time budget components and the effect of lameness, housing conditions and demographic characteristics such as days-in-milk or lactation number.

description: The use of the third generation cephalosporin, ceftiofur, is common in animal agriculture for the treatment of a wide range of production-limiting disease conditions. The therapeutic use of ceftiofur in livestock can select for the blaCMY-2 genetic element in the intestinal flora. The presence of resistant organisms is a potential public health threat to the consumer. This project investigated the impact of ceftiofur removal from cattle populations and the meat products they produced. The working hypothesis is that the use of ceftiofur in food animal populations selects for the emergence and rapid dissemination of third generation cephalosporin resistant microorganisms, leading to the potential risk of food-borne zoonotic pathogen transfer via the food chain.

description: Two new ruthenium(II) complexes, [Ru(bpy)2(DClPIP)](ClO4)2 (1) and [Ru(phen)2(DClPIP)](ClO4)2 (2) (bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, and DClPIP = 2-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1, 10]phenanthroline), have been prepared in high yield by using microwave-assisted synthesis technology. The anticancer activity of the two ruthenium(II) complexes against A549, C6, CNE-1 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines has been evaluated by MTT assay and results showed that 2 exhibited higher antitumor activity than 1 toward all the selected tumor cell lines. Besides, A549 cell line was sensitive to both ruthenium(II) complexes, especially to 2 (IC50 = 8.01 ± 0.36 μM). Meanwhile, 2 showed low toxicity against MCF-10A human normal cells. Furthermore, the DNA-binding properties of the two new ruthenium(II) complexes with CT-DNA have been investigated by electronic absorption titration, luminescence spectra, circular dichroism spectra and viscosity measurements. The results suggested that 1 and 2 were able to interact with CT-DNA via intercalative mode with a strong binding affinity in the order 2 > 1. All of these results suggested that anticancer activity of both ruthenium(II) complexes could be closely related to their interaction with DNA.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The cuttlefish Sepia officinalis is a major fishery resource in the English Channel, and amongst the largest cephalopod stocks in the Northeast Atlantic. Cuttlefish live for approximately 2 years, and consequently landings depend highly upon recruitment success. In this study, we analyze early life stages for differences in age-at-recruitment and juvenile growth. Biological samples of recruits were collected monthly during 2000, 2001 and 2002, and samples of pre-recruits in 2000 and 2002, from the coastal waters of the UK and France. Age in days was determined by statolith analysis. Significant differences in age-at-recruitment were found between the autumnal recruitment, and the rest of the year, and between cohorts. Juvenile growth models were fitted for pre-recruit specimens, and indicated growth rate was significantly higher in 2002 than in 2000. Spatial differences observed were found in 2000, and indicated pre-recruit growth may depend on local environmental conditions. The results indicate that life-history is likely to be heterogeneous within the English Channel stock.

description: Bloch oscillations in nanoscale Josephson junctions with a Coulomb charging energy comparable to the Josephson coupling energy are explored within the context of a model previously considered by Geigenmüller and Schön that includes Zener tunneling and treats quasiparticle tunneling as an explicit shot-noise process. The dynamics of the junction quasicharge are investigated numerically using both Monte Carlo and ensemble approaches to calculate voltage--current characteristics in the presence of microwaves. We examine in detail the origin of harmonic and subharmonic Bloch steps at dc biases $I=(n/m)2ef$ induced by microwaves of frequency $f$ and consider the optimum parameters for the observation of harmonic ($m=1$) steps. We also demonstrate that the GS model allows a detailed semi-quantitative fit to experimental voltage--current characteristics previously obtained at the Chalmers University of Technology, confirming and strengthening the interpretation of the observed microwave-induced steps in terms of Bloch oscillations.

description: Strong winds from massive stars are a topic of interest to a wide range of astrophysical fields. In High-Mass X-ray Binaries the presence of an accreting compact object on the one side allows to infer wind parameters from studies of the varying properties of the emitted X-rays; but on the other side the accretor's gravity and ionizing radiation can strongly influence the wind flow. Based on a collaborative effort of astronomers both from the stellar wind and the X-ray community, this presentation attempts to review our current state of knowledge and indicate avenues for future progress.

description: Stocking density in dairy cattle pens appears to affect resting time, feed intake, milk production, lameness, reproduction, hygiene, behavior, and health of the cows. Stocking density can be calculated by the number of linear feet of bunk space per cow, number of cows per freestall, or number of cows per drylot area. Stocking density measures are part of animal welfare auditing guidelines and are important for veterinary investigation of herd health and performance concerns. The purpose of this project was to describe the features of all the cattle pens on large dairy farms in the west and assess farm-level stocking density by pen.

We developed an original pulsed magnet that has a high repetition rate and applies the strongest magnetic field among VMB experiments. The vibration isolation design and feedback system enable the direct combination of the magnet with a Fabry-Pérot cavity. To ensure the searching potential, a calibration measurement with dilute nitrogen gas and a prototype search for vacuum magnetic birefringence are performed. Based on the results, a strategy to observe vacuum magnetic birefringence is reported.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The diet of L. forbesi in Scottish waters was subject to ontogenetic changes as shown by fatty acid and stable isotope analysis. Crustaceans were more frequently found in stomachs of immature squid smaller than 150 mm mantle length. With increasing size ( > 150 mm) and maturity fish became more prominent in the diet. Seasonal differences in the diet were also found but seemed to be linked to seasonal changes in squid size. Prey type and species composition also varied slightly between different regions. Differences between size and region were reflected in fatty acid profiles of mainly the digestive gland tissue. High levels of the saturated fatty acid 16:0 and the polyunsaturated fatty acids 20:5n-3 and 22:6n-3, which are typical for fatty acid signatures of many crustacean species, were found in tissues of smaller immature squid. Higher levels of the monounsaturated fatty acids 16:1n-7, 20:1* and polyunsaturated fatty acids of the linoleic family (C18), which are typical for fish prey species, were found in squid of larger sizes and higher maturity stages. Regional differences found for fatty acid profiles of the digestive gland suggested a significant difference in origin of fatty acids thus indicating different diets. In comparing the fatty acid profiles of squid to those of putative prey species of L. forbesi, it was apparent that gadid species Trisopterus minutus, Micromesistius poutassou and Gadus morhua, were an important component of the diet of L. forbesi. With increasing size of the predator however the composition of fish species in the diet shifted more towards Gadiculus argenteus, Trachurus trachurus and Sebastes marinus. Results of quantitative fatty acid analysis on the estimate of the contribution of each prey species to the diet also reflected this shift in the importance of different prey species with increasing predator size

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.A review of the verified reports to date of Architeuthis dux showed that 26% (148 specimens) of worldwide reports were derived from the north-eastern Atlantic. Biological data are presented on fifteen females and two males from Asturian waters (Northern Spain). Both males represent the two first records captured off the Iberian Peninsula. Immature and maturing females ranged from 60 to 140 Kg total weight, whilst mature males weights were 42 and 66 Kg. The peculiar observation of spermatophores embedded in the skin of one of the males near the proximal part of the ventral, ventro-lateral and dorso-lateral arms is discussed. A comparison was undertaken of several morphometric measurements between both sexes and between these two males and five other north-eastern Atlantic males from which data were available. Two incidents of multiple strandings affecting nine specimens in 2001 and 2003 appear to be linked spatially and temporally to geophysical prospecting using air-gun arrays in the Bay of Biscay. Here we present evidence of acute tissue damage in the stranded and surface-floating giant squids. The incidence of such cases during two research cruises contemporary with integrated geological and geophysical studies of the continental margin of the Cantabric Sea indicate that acoustic factors could have caused or contributed to the organ and tissue lesions that probably caused the deaths of these animals. Thus, further environmental regulation of such activity may be warranted to protect animals of the continental slope.

description: Retained placenta (RP) is a condition associated with aspects of immune function during the prepartum period. Retained placenta has been shown to be a risk factor for uterine diseases and for reduced reproductive performance. Metritis is a condition causing systemic signs of illness (fever, anorexia, decreased milk production) characterized by a foul-smelling, brown-red watery vaginal discharge, occurring within the first 20 days-in-milk (DIM). Metritis has been associated with risk factors thought to contribute to greater uterine bacterial contamination, such as dystocia and RP. Conflicting data are reported on the impacts of RP and metritis on milk production, reproduction, and culling. In particular, many studies have considered RP and metritis in isolation, and have used only short-term outcomes. The objective of this study was to investigate risk factors and impacts of RP and metritis in postpartum dairy cows.

title: Peering through the lens: An exploration into the pathways and characteristics associated with voyeuristic behaviours
Creators: name: Lister, Victoria P. M.

description: Over the last 50 years, there has been a plethora of research exploring sexual offending with a recent focus on online offending. However, little research has focused on voyeurism despite convictions and media awareness growing rapidly. Voyeurism has been, and continues to be, a growing problem worldwide, particularly with technology-use rising. Yet, unlike most other sexual offences, the pathways, characteristics, and risk factors associated with voyeurism have been largely uninvestigated. This is particularly concerning given that paraphilic sexual interests, such as voyeurism, have been identified as a risk factor for committing a sexual offence. As such, currently, there is sparse theoretical or empirical literature to guide research and practice for individuals engaging in voyeuristic behaviours. 
This thesis, comprised of five empirical studies, sought to help build a picture of what leads men into engaging with voyeurism, in hopes to catalyse research into this area. Study 1 developed a temporal model on the cognitive, affective, behavioural, and contextual factors leading up to voyeuristic engagement, and potential pathways associated with this, utilising a sample of imprisoned individuals. Study 2 investigated the rates of sexual arousal, proclivity, and engagement with voyeurism in the general population to gather an estimate of the prevalence in the UK. In Studies 3 and 4, image-based voyeuristic stimuli were created for newly-developed indirect measures of sexual interest in voyeurism, a factor found to be important for voyeuristic engagement when assessed directly along with resilient coping. The characteristics and psychological risk factors were then examined among the general population in Study 5 and an empirical model was generated using structural equation modelling. 
The findings from this thesis suggest that (a) there are a number of key risk factors that individuals experience which may lead them to engage with voyeurism; (b) the prevalence of voyeuristic engagement in the UK is high in the general population; (c) indirect measurement of sexual interest in voyeurism is complex but sexual interest in voyeurism and resilient coping are important factors associated with voyeuristic engagement, drawing into question motivations to engage; and (d) sexual interest in voyeurism is a strong predictor of engagement in voyeuristic behaviours, and both sexual compulsivity and socio-relational factors (i.e., loneliness, self-efficacy in romantic relationship, and resilient coping) play an important role in this relationship. The implications of the findings included in this thesis are important for both research and practice and as such, are discussed along with the limitations and future directions.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

Affine sphere spacetimes which satisfy the relativity principle

description: In the context of Lorentz-Finsler spacetime theories the relativity principle holds at a spacetime point if the indicatrix (observer space) is homogeneous. We point out that in four spacetime dimensions there are just three kinematical models which respect an exact form of the relativity principle and for which all observers agree on the spacetime volume. They have necessarily affine sphere indicatrices. For them every observer which looks at a flash of light emitted by a point would observe, respectively, an expanding (a) sphere, (b) tetrahedron, or (c) cone, with barycenter at the point. The first model corresponds to Lorentzian relativity, the second one has been studied by several authors though the relationship with affine spheres passed unnoticed, and the last one has not been previously recognized and it is studied here in some detail. The symmetry groups are $O^+(3,1)$, $R^3$, $O^+(2,1) \times R$, respectively. In the second part, devoted to the general relativistic theory, we show that the field equations can be obtained by gauging the Finsler Lagrangian symmetry while avoiding direct use of Finslerian curvatures. We construct some notable affine sphere spacetimes which in the appropriate velocity limit return the Schwarzschild, Kerr-Schild, Kerr-de Sitter, Kerr-Newman, Taub, and FLRW spacetimes, respectively.

A search of reactivated comets

description: Dormant or near-dormant short-period comets can unexpectedly regain ability to eject dust. In many known cases, the resurrection is short-lived and lasts less than one orbit. However, it is possible that some resurrected comets can remain active in latter perihelion passages. We search the archival images of various facilities to look for these "reactivated" comets. We identify two candidates, 297P/Beshore and 332P/Ikeya-Murakami, both of which were found to be inactive or weakly active in the previous orbit before their discovery. We derive a reactivation rate of $\sim0.007~\mathrm{comet}^{-1}~\mathrm{orbit}^{-1}$, which implies that typical short-period comets only become temporary dormant for less than a few times. Smaller comets are prone to rotational instability and may undergo temporary dormancy more frequently. Next generation high-cadence surveys may find more reactivation events of these comets.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The loliginid squid Loligo forbesi has a flexible life-cycle, involving variable size and age at maturity, presence of summer and winter breeding populations, and extended periods of breeding and recruitment. This paper reviews life history data collected since 1983 from the commercial fishery in Scottish (UK) waters and examines (a) the relationship between size and timing of maturation, (b) evidence for shifts in the relative abundance of the summer and winter breeding populations, and (c) the role of environmental signals in determining the timing of breeding. Evidence from fishery data suggests that, since the 1970s, the summer breeding population has declined while the winter breeding population now dominates and breeds later than was previously the case. Length-weight relationships and size at maturity showed significant inter-annual and seasonal variation during the period 1983-2001 and provide no evidence that there is currently a summer breeding population. Males are shown to decline in relative weight as they mature while females increase in relative weight. There is evidence that timing of breeding and size at maturity are related to environmental variation (winter NAO index).

description: Endometritis is diagnosed cytologically, as endometrial inflammation, or clinically as purulent or mucopurulent vaginal discharge. Cytological endometritis (CYTO) is based on an increased proportion of polymorphonuclear cells in endometrial cytology. Purulent vaginal discharge (PVD) has only moderate diagnostic agreement with CYTO. The prevalence of CYTO and PVD have been reported to be as high as 53 and 40%, respectively. Reported risk factors for PVD include dystocia, retained placenta (RP), and metritis. Little information is available on the risk factors for CYTO. Cytological endometritis and PVD were shown independently to have detrimental effects on subsequent reproductive performance. Conflicting results have been reported regarding the effect of prostaglandin F2alpha (PGF) on uterine health and reproduction. The hypotheses were that CYTO and PVD would have different risk factors because they represent different reproductive diseases, and that treatment with PGF would mitigate the impact of CYTO and PVD. The objectives of this study were to investigate risk factors and impacts of CYTO and PVD in postpartum dairy cows, and to determine the efficacy of PGF for treating CYTO and PVD and for improving reproductive performance.

description: Lameness in dairy cows is a commonly occurring condition that causes decreased productivity and diminished well-being. Lameness has been shown to affect gait, weight distribution, and amount of time spent lying down in dairy cows. Automated methods of measuring weight distribution and standing, walking, and lying behaviors were used, in conjunction with evaluation of gait, to measure the effects of hoof trimming and systemic treatment with the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs ketoprofen and flunixin meglumine in dairy cows.

description: It is shown that the concept of topological phase transitions can be used to design nonlinear photonic structures exhibiting power thresholds and discontinuities in their transmittance. This provides a novel route to devising nonlinear optical isolators. We study three representative designs: (i) a waveguide array implementing a nonlinear 1D Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model, (ii) a waveguide array implementing a nonlinear 2D Haldane model, and (iii) a 2D lattice of coupled-ring waveguides. In the first two cases, we find a correspondence between the topological transition of the underlying linear lattice and the power threshold of the transmittance, and show that the transmission behavior is attributable to the emergence of a self-induced topological soliton. In the third case, we show that the topological transition produces a discontinuity in the transmittance curve, which can be exploited to achieve sharp jumps in the power-dependent isolation ratio.

description: Weaning in beef cattle is defined as the physical separation of the cow-calf pair and is normally associated with dietary, social, environmental, and immunological changes in the calf. Abrupt weaning leads to behavioral changes, decreased weight gain, and increased levels of stress-associated hormones. Alternative weaning methods are utilized to decrease stress on calves. Fenceline weaning is moving the calf into an adjacent paddock which ends suckling, but allows the calf to maintain social contact with its dam. Fenceline weaning reduces the time calves spend walking and vocalizing, and increases the time calves spend eating and lying down. Measurement of blood cortisol can be problematic due to the acute nature of cortisol release which may reflect handling and response to blood collection in addition to baseline cortisol status. The utilization of fecal cortisol metabolites allows determination of cortisol status hours prior to sampling. The objective of this study was to compare fecal cortisol metabolite concentrations in beef calves weaned abruptly and by alternate techniques.

description: High levels of bacteria in bedding (bedding bacteria counts; BBC) are associated with increased bacteria loads on teat ends and, in some reports, with an increased risk for environmental mastitis infections. However, relatively few studies have investigated the relationship between BBC and udder health, and science-based guidelines are lacking to interpret BBC culture results in different bedding materials. Therefore, the primary goal of our study is to conduct a multi-state, multi-herd cross-sectional observational study to describe the relationship between bedding bacteria counts and udder health and to identify cutpoints for interpreting BBC data. A secondary objective is to identify bedding characteristics and bedding management strategies that are associated with lower BBC and improved udder health. In this abstract we present preliminary results that describe BBC in new and used bedding samples collected from herds using new sand (NS), reclaimed sand (RS), manure solids (MS) or other organic bedding materials (OB).
