Effects of resource availability on sex allocation in herbivores
Creators: name: Johnstone-Yellin, Tamara Lee

Subjects: Herbivores -- Oregon, Eastern -- Reproduction

description: For well over a century, ecologists have attempted to understand the evolutionary pressures shaping the allocation of resources to offspring of different sexes but support for competing theories remains inconclusive overall. Most empirical studies with mammals have been performed on free-ranging animals where researchers are unable to control environments or to trace the line of individuals over multiple years. At Washington State University and Starkey Experimental Forest and Range in Oregon, we set up nutritional trials to test the effects of body mass, body condition, and diet on the birth sex ratios of two species of polygynous mammals: mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) and elk (Cervus elaphus). Despite carefully controlling and measuring nutritional resources, we found little evidence that forage quality or body fat near breeding influences birth sex ratio (BSR) of female mule deer and elk, or the probability that a neonatal elk or mule deer would be certain sex. However, in our sample of 76 mule deer fawns, we found that digestible protein intake influenced the probability of having a male fawn. Similarly, although BSR of females treated with GC was absolutely higher than those treated with a placebo (0.71 vs. 0.50), BSR were not statistically different and corticosteroid treatment did not predict the sex of a fawn. In addition to analyzing the preexisting data, we used another herbivore, Grammia nevadensis, to test how growth rate, population density and diet affect sex ratio of offspring. We used high protein, low fiber kale and a low protein, high fiber pelleted diet to explore how these various diets affect other life-history traits of G. nevadensis. Despite the benefits of using G. nevadensis as a model species to test sex allocation hypotheses, we found little evidence that forage quality, average number of days till pupation or average number of days to emergence affected population sex ratios. Forage quality did, however, affect growth rates and the average number of days till pupation or emergence. Our results illustrate the difficulties in testing evolutionary hypotheses such as TWH in wild ungulates and herbivores in general.

description: We present a comprehensive study of a low-mass star-forming region,L1251B, at wavelengths from the near-infrared to the millimeter. L1251B, where only one protostar, IRAS 22376+7455, was known previously, is confirmed to be a small group of protostars based on observations with the Spitzer Space Telescope. The most luminous source of L1251B is located 5" north of the IRAS position. A near-infrared bipolar nebula, which is not associated with the brightest object and is located at the southeast corner of L1251B, has been detected in the IRAC bands. OVRO and SMA interferometric observations indicate that the brightest source and the bipolar nebula source in the IRAC bands are deeply embedded disk sources.Submillimeter continuum observations with single-dish telescopes and the SMA interferometric observations suggest two possible prestellar objects with very high column densities. Outside of the small group, many young stellar object candidates have been detected over a larger region of 12' x 12'. Extended emission to the east of L1251B has been detected at 850 micron; this "east core" may be a site for future star formation since no point source has been detected with IRAC or MIPS. This region is therefore a possible example of low-mass cluster formation, where a small group of pre- and protostellar objects (L1251B) is currently forming, alongside a large starless core (the east core).

description: The finite temperature transition of QCD can be seen as a change in the structure of the hadrons and as a symmetry breaking transition -- a change in the structure of the vacuum. These phenomena are observed differently and carry complementary information. We aim at a correlated analysis involving hadronic correlators and the vacuum structure including field and density correlations, both non-trivial questions.

description: Based on a Wold decomposition for families of partial isometries and projections of Cuntz-Krieger-Toeplitz-type, we extend several fundamental theorems from the case of single vertex graphs to the general case of countable directed graphs with no sinks. We prove a Szego-type factorization theorem for CKT families, which leads to information on the structure of the unit ball in free semigroupoid algebras, and show that joint similarity implies joint unitary equivalence for such families. For each graph we prove a generalization of von Neumann's inequality which applies to row contractions of operators on Hilbert space which are related to the graph in a natural way. This yields a functional calculus determined by quiver algebras and free semigroupoid algebras. We establish a generalization of Coburn's theorem for the C*-algebra of a CKT family, and prove a universality theorem for C*-algebras generated by these families. In both cases, the C*-algebras generated by quiver algebras play the universal role.

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.

description: We present results of a measurement of the shape of the density profile of galaxy groups and clusters traced by 43 335 Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs) with spectroscopic redshifts from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). The galaxies are selected such that they are the brightest within a cylindrical aperture, split into two luminosity samples, and modeled as the sum of stellar and dark matter components. We present a detailed investigation of many possible systematic effects that could contaminate our signal and develop methods to remove them, including a detected intrinsic alignment for galaxies within 100 kpc/h of LRGs which we remove using photometric redshift information. The resulting lensing signal is consistent with NFW profile dark matter halos; the SIS profile is ruled out at the 96 (conservatively) and 99.96 per cent confidence level (CL) for the fainter and brighter lens samples (respectively) when we fit using lensing data between 40 kpc/h and 2 Mpc/h with total signal-to-noise of 19 and 25 for the two lens samples. The lensing signal amplitude suggests that the faint and bright sample galaxies typically reside in haloes of mass (2.9+/-0.4)x10^{13} M_{sun}/h and (6.7+/-0.8)x10^{13} M_{sun}/h respectively, in good agreement with predictions based on halo spatial density with normalization lower than the 'concordance' sigma_8=0.9. When fitting for the concentration parameter in the NFW profile, we find c = 5.0+/-0.6 (stat) +/-1 (sys), and c = 5.6+/-0.6 (stat) +/-1 (sys) for the faint and bright samples, consistent with Lambda-CDM simulations. We also split the bright sample further to determine masses and concentrations for cluster-mass halos, finding mass (1.3+/-0.2)x10^{14} M_{sun}/h for the sample of LRGs brighter than -22.6 in r.

description: The finite temperature transition of QCD with two degenerate light quarks is studied on the lattice with a renormalization group improved gauge action and the Wilson quark action. We have made simulations on an $8^3\times 4$ lattice near the chiral transition point. It is shown that the chiral condensate which is the order parameter of chiral symmetry satisfies remarkably a scaling relation with the exponents of the three dimensional O(4) Heisenberg model. This indicates that the chiral transition in two-flavor QCD is of second order in the continuum limit.

Fluorescent Lyman-alpha Emission from Gas Near a QSO at Redshift 4.28

description: We use integral field spectroscopy with the Gemini North Telescope to detect probable fluorescent Ly-alpha emission from gas lying close to the luminous QSO PSS 2155+1358 at redshift 4.28. The emission is most likely coming not from primordial gas, but from a multi-phase, chemically enriched cloud of gas lying about 50 kpc from the QSO. It appears to be associated with a highly ionised associated absorber seen in the QSO spectrum. With the exception of this gas cloud, the environment of the QSO is remarkably free of neutral hydrogen. We also marginally detect Ly-alpha emission from a foreground sub-Damped-Ly-alpha absorption-line system.

description: We study the spatially resolved star formation of 1494 galaxies in the SDSSIV-MaNGA Survey. SFRs are calculated using a two-step process, using $H_α$ in star forming regions and $D_n4000$ in regions identified as AGN/LI(N)ER or lineless. The roles of secular and environmental quenching processes are investigated by studying the dependence of the radial profiles of specific star formation rate on stellar mass, galaxy structure and environment. We report on the existence of `Centrally Suppressed' galaxies, which have suppressed SSFR in their cores compared to their disks. The profiles of centrally suppressed and unsuppressed galaxies are distibuted in a bimodal way. Galaxies with high stellar mass and core velocity dispersion are found to be much more likely to be centrally suppressed than low mass galaxies, and we show that this is related to morphology and the presence of AGN/LI(N)ER like emission. Centrally suppressed galaxies also display lower star formation at all radii compared to unsuppressed galaxies. The profiles of central and satellite galaxies are also compared, and we find that satellite galaxies experience lower specific star formation rates at all radii than central galaxies. This uniform suppression could be a signal of the stripping of hot halo gas in the process known as strangulation. We find that satellites are not more likely to be suppressed in their cores than centrals, indicating that the core suppression is an entirely internal process. We find no correlation between the local environment density and the profiles of star formation rate surface density.

description: Objectives: The prevalence of regular and dependent methamphetamine use in Australia in 2013/14 was recently estimated indirectly using multipliers at 268,000 regular (defined as >monthly use in the past 6 months) and 160,000 dependent (defined as >3 on the Severity of Dependence Scale) methamphetamine consumers, respectively. We replicated this approach using more contemporary multipliers and alternate data sources to explore identified limitations with this approach. Design: Two multipliers were derived from surveys of methamphetamine consumption in Sydney (NSW) in 2003/04 (the original multiplier) and Melbourne (VIC) in 2010 (a more contemporary multiplier), and applied to the time series of treatment utilisation figures for NSW and VIC, along with ABS-estimated resident population figures. Results: Using the more contemporary VIC multiplier, we estimated numbers of regular (67,250, 95% CI = 50,312-91,635) and dependent (43,232, 95% CI = 34,477-57,947) methamphetamine users for Australia in 2013/14. This is approximately one-third of the figures reported previously. Our national estimates using the 2003/04 NSW multiplier applied to NSW treatment data (175,452, 95% CI = 124,514-256,575 for regular, and 103,761, 95% CI = 73,576-154,699 dependent, methamphetamine users respectively) are approximately two-thirds of the figures reported previously. Conclusions: We urge caution in using treatment multipliers to estimate the prevalence of illicit drug use, particularly during periods of dramatic changes in treatment system capacity, user behaviour, drug purity and policing practices.

description: We measure the starspot radii and latitude distribution on the K4 dwarf HAT-P-11 from Kepler short-cadence photometry. We take advantage of starspot occultations by its highly-misaligned planet to compare the spot size and latitude distributions to those of sunspots. We find that the spots of HAT-P-11 are distributed in latitude much like sunspots near solar activity maximum, with mean spot latitude of $16 \pm 1$ degrees. The majority of starspots of HAT-P-11 have physical sizes that closely resemble the sizes of sunspots at solar maximum. We estimate the mean spotted area coverage on HAT-P-11 is $3^{+6}_{-1}\%$, roughly two orders of magnitude greater than the typical solar spotted area.

description: We studied the distribution of dust clouds around the central engine of NGC 1068 based on shifted-and-added 8.8 - 12.3 micron (MIR) multi-filter images and 3.0 - 3.9 micron (L-band) spectra obtained with the Subaru Telescope. In a region of 100 pc (1.4") around the central peak, we successfully constructed maps of color temperatures and emissivities of the MIR and L-band continua as well as the 9.7 micron and 3.4 micron dust features with spatial resolutions of 26 pc (0.37") in the MIR and 22 pc (0.3") in the L-band. Our main results are: 1) color temperature of the MIR continuum scatters around the thermal equilibrium temperature with the central engine as the heat source while that of the L-band continuum is higher and independent upon distance from the central engine; 2) the peak of the 9.7 micron silicate absorption feature is shifted to a longer wavelength at some locations; 3) the ratio of the optical depths of the dust features is different from the Galactic values and show complicated spatial distribution; and 4) there is a pie shaped warm dust cloud as an enhancement in the emissivity of the MIR continuum extending about 50 pc to the north from the central engine. We speculate that material falls into the central engine through this cloud.

Proximity effects in bilayer graphene on monolayer WSe$_2$: Field-effect spin-valley locking, spin-orbit valve, and spin transistor

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Proximity orbital and spin-orbit effects of bilayer graphene on monolayer WSe$_2$ are investigated from first-principles. We find that the built-in electric field induces an orbital band gap of about 10 meV in bilayer graphene. Remarkably, the proximity spin-orbit splitting for holes is two orders of magnitude---the spin-orbit splitting of the valence band at K is about 2 meV---more than for electrons. Effectively, holes experience spin-valley locking due to the strong proximity of the lower graphene layer to WSe$_2$. However, applying an external transverse electric field of some 1 V/nm, countering the built-in field of the heterostructure, completely reverses this effect and allows, instead for holes, electrons to be spin-valley locked with 2 meV spin-orbit splitting. Such a behavior constitutes a highly efficient field-effect spin-orbit valve, making bilayer graphene on WSe$_2$ a potential platform for a field-effect spin transistor.

description: Wang tile based representation of a heterogeneous material facilitates fast synthesis of non-periodic microstructure realizations. In this paper, we apply the tiling approach in numerical homogenization to determine the Representative Volume Element size related to the user-defined significance level and the discrepancy between bounds on the apparent properties. First, the tiling concept is employed to efficiently generate arbitrarily large, statistically consistent realizations of investigated microstructures. Second, benefiting from the regular structure inherent to the tiling concept, the Partition theorem, and statistical sampling, we construct confidence intervals of the apparent properties related to the size of a microstructure specimen. Based on the interval width and the upper and lower bounds on the apparent properties, we adaptively generate additional microstructure realizations in order to arrive at an RVE satisfying the prescribed tolerance. The methodology is illustrated with the homogenization of thermo-mechanical properties of three two-dimensional microstructure models: a microstructure with mono-disperse elliptic inclusions, foam, and sandstone.

description: We combine Hubble Space Telescope spectroscopy and ground-based integral-field data from the SAURON and OASIS instruments to study the central black hole in the nearby elliptical galaxy NGC 3379. From these data, we obtain kinematics of both the stars and the nuclear gaseous component. Axisymmetric three-integral models of the stellar kinematics find a black hole of mass 1.4 (+2.6 / -1.0) x 10^8 M_sun (3 sigma errors). These models also probe the velocity distribution in the immediate vicinity of the black hole and reveal a nearly isotropic velocity distribution throughout the galaxy and down to the black hole sphere of influence R_BH. The morphology of the nuclear gas disc suggests that it is not in the equatorial plane; however the core of NGC 3379 is nearly spherical. Inclined thin-disc models of the gas find a nominal black hole of mass 2.0 (+/- 0.1) x 10^8 M_sun (3 sigma errors), but the model is a poor fit to the kinematics. The data are better fit by introducing a twist in the gas kinematics (with the black hole mass assumed to be 2.0 x 10^8 M_sun), although the constraints on the nature and shape of this perturbation are insufficient for more detailed modelling. Given the apparent regularity of the gas disc's appearance, the presence of such strong non-circular motion indicates that caution must be used when measuring black hole masses with gas dynamical methods alone.

description: The fluoride adsorption potential of chemically modified rice husk and corn cob activated carbon was investigated in batch and column tests. The effect of pH, contact time, initial fluoride concentration and adsorbent dose on the adsorption capacity and efficiency was studied. Batch experimental results were analysed using analysis of variance. The maximum adsorption capacity of 7.9 and 5.8 mg/g and a removal efficiency of 91% and 89% were achieved in batch tests, respectively, for rice husk and corn cob activated carbon. The adsorption data and kinetic model fitted well to the Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetics, respectively. Fluoride adsorption was governed by both intraparticle diffusion and surface or film diffusion for both rice husk and corn cob activated carbon. Continuous tests were carried out using three columns packed with 100% rice husk activated carbon, 100% corn cob activated carbon and 50% rice husk + 50% corn cob activated carbon. The breakthrough adsorption capacities were found to be 7.9, 5.0 and 5.2 mg/g, respectively. The results were analysed using the Thomas model, which yielded adsorption capacities of 11, 8.1 and 9.4 mg/g, respectively, for the three columns investigated.

Economic competition and the production of winning in professional sports
Creators: name: Mongeon, Kevin P.
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2010
Subjects: Professional sports -- Management

description: This dissertation includes three essays on the economics and management of professional sports with an emphasis on strategic management and quantitative methods. The first paper is a theoretical paper that provides an alternative perspective of professional sports team owners' incentive to invest in a level of talent. The second paper examines the relationship between the demand for watching games on television and attending games in person. The third paper is an application of microeconomic theory and econometrics that estimates different forms of the contest success function and develops a new empirical approach to measuring players' effectiveness. The chapter titled "Economic Competition and Player Investment in Sports Leagues" provides an alternative perspective of professional sports teams' incentives to invest in talent based on market and ownership structures. Since territorial rights limit fans' ability to trade off between the qualities of teams that are direct substitutes, the possibility exists that some fans will choose between indirect substitutes based on relative team qualities (e.g. winning). If this is the case, then both the market and ownership structures will affect the owner's incentive to invest in talent. The condition of cross-ownership decreases an owner's incentive to invest in talent compared to the duopoly. The chapter titled "A Comparison of Television and Gate Demand in the National Basketball League" estimates the demand for gate attendance and television audiences in the NBA and finds that the fans who attend games in person are inherently different from fans who watch games on television. Fans who watch the games on television are more responsive to winning and do not substitute for other professional sport leagues compared to fans who attend the games in person. The chapter titled "Contest Success Functions and Marginal Products of Talent" contributes to the literature by being one of the first papers to empirically estimate a contest success function. Although tournaments, conflicts, rent-seeking, and sporting events have been modeled with contest success functions, little empirical support exists. The contest success function is further used to determine the contribution to winning of the candidate players for the 2010 Canadian Men's Olympic Hockey Team.
Constraints on Horndeski Theory Using the Observations of Nordtvedt Effect, Shapiro Time Delay and Binary Pulsars

description: Alternative theories of gravity not only modify the polarization contents of the gravitational wave, but also affect the motions of the stars and the energy radiated away via the gravitational radiation. These aspects leave imprints in the observational data, which enables the test of General Relativity and its alternatives. In this work, the Nordtvedt effect and the Shapiro time delay are calculated in order to constrain Horndeski theory using the observations of lunar laser ranging experiments and Cassini time-delay data. The effective stress-energy tensor is also obtained using the method of Isaacson. Gravitational wave radiation of a binary system is calculated, and the change of the period of a binary system is deduced for the elliptical orbit. These results can be used to set constraints on Horndeski theory with the observations of binary systems, such as PSR J1738+0333. Constraints have been obtained for some subclasses of Horndeski theory, in particular, those satisfying the gravitational wave speed limits from GW170817 and GRB 170817A.

description: Ocean acidification, rising sea temperatures, and changes in seawater composition are mainstream effects of climate change. Nevertheless, desalination projects, including simulations and experimental studies, largely ignore these long-term effects. To address this challenge, here we report an extensive climate data analysis (1950 to 2100) and impacts on ionic balances, seawater pretreatments, and ultrafiltration – reverse osmosis systems (UF-RO) in an Australian context. By focusing on five main Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP1 – 1.9, SSP1 – 2.6, SSP2 – 4.5, SSP3 – 7.0, and SSP5 – 8.5) and five regions (Adelaide, Gold Coast, Perth, Sydney, and Victoria), we have quantified historical and possible future consequences for desalination. Specifically, we analyzed changes in salt compositions, discussed CO2 liberation rates through Cl2 disinfection and standard industrial coagulants, and displayed the underperformance of some UF-RO systems in more pessimistic climate scenarios. This work demonstrates that desalination projects are not isolated from long-lasting climate shifts. Consequently, the ramifications of climate change must be considered for future desalination contracts.

Mathematical Model for Detection of Leakage in Domestic Water Supply Systems by Reading Consumption from an Analogue Water Meter

Subjects: subject: Computational Engineering, Finance, and Science (cs.CE)

description: In this article we introduce the principles to detect leakage using a mathematical model based on machine learning and domestic water consumption monitoring in real time. The model uses data which is measured from a water meter, analyzes the water consumption, and uses two criteria simultaneously: deviation from the average consumption, and comparison of steady water consumptions over a period of time. Simulation of the model on a regular household consumer was implemented on Antileaks - device that we have built that designed to transfer consumption information from an analogue water meter to a digital form in real time.
Limits on the Transient Ultra-High Energy Neutrino Flux from Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRB) Derived from RICE Data

description: We present limits on ultra-high energy (UHE; E(nu)>1 PeV) neutrino fluxes from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), based on recently presented data, limits, and simulations from the RICE experiment. We use data from five recorded transients with sufficient photon spectral shape and redshift information to derive an expected neutrino flux, assuming that the observed photons are linked to neutrino production through pion decay via the well-known 'Waxman-Bahcall' prescription. Knowing the declination of the observed burst, as well as the RICE sensitivity as a function of polar angle and the previously published non-observation of any neutrino events allows an estimate of the sensitivity to a given neutrino flux. Although several orders of magnitude weaker than the expected fluxes, our GRB neutrino flux limits are nevertheless the first in the PeV--EeV energy regime. For completeness, we also provide a listing of other bursts, recorded at times when the RICE experiment was active, but requiring some assumptions regarding luminosity and redshift to permit estimates of the neutrino flux.

description: Interactions between pairs of isolated dwarf galaxies provide a critical window into low-mass hierarchical, gas-dominated galaxy assembly and the buildup of stellar mass in low-metallicity systems. We present the first VLT/MUSE optical IFU observations of the interacting dwarf pair dm1647+21, selected from the TiNy Titans survey. The H$α$ emission is widespread and corresponds to a total unobscured star formation rate (SFR) of 0.44 M$_{\odot}$ yr$^{-1}$, 2.7 times higher than the SFR inferred from SDSS data. The implied specific SFR (sSFR) for the system is elevated by more than an order of magnitude above non-interacting dwarfs in the same mass range. This increase is dominated by the lower-mass galaxy, which has a sSFR enhancement of $>$ 50. Examining the spatially-resolved maps of classic optical line diagnostics, we find the ISM excitation can be fully explained by star formation. The velocity field of the ionized gas is not consistent with simple rotation. Dynamical simulations indicate that the irregular velocity field and the stellar structure is consistent with the identification of this system as an ongoing interaction between two dwarf galaxies. The widespread, clumpy enhancements in star formation in this system point to important differences in the effect of mergers on dwarf galaxies, compared to massive galaxies: rather than the funneling of gas to the nucleus and giving rise to a nuclear starburst, starbursts in low-mass galaxy mergers may be triggered by large-scale ISM compression, and thus be more distributed.
