description: The composition and physical properties of aged atmospheric aerosol were characterized at a remote sampling site on the northern coast of Crete, Greece during the Finokalia Aerosol Measurement Experiment in May 2008 (FAME-2008). A reduced Dry-Ambient Aerosol Size Spectrometer (DAASS) was deployed to measure the aerosol water content and volumetric growth factor of fine particulate matter. The particles remained wet even at relative humidity (RH) as low as 20%. The aerosol was acidic during most of the measurement campaign, which likely contributed to the water uptake at low RH. The water content observations were compared to the thermodynamic model E-AIM, neglecting any contribution of the organics to aerosol water content. There was good agreement between the water measurements and the model predictions. Adding the small amount of water associated with the organic aerosol based on monoterpene water absorption did not change the quality of the agreement. These results strongly suggest that the water uptake by aged organic aerosol is relatively small (a few percent of the total water for the conditions during FAME-08) and generally consistent with what has been observed in laboratory experiments. The water concentration measured by a Q-AMS was well correlated with the DAASS measurements and in good agreement with the predicted values for the RH of the Q-AMS inlet. This suggests that, at least for the conditions of the study, the Q-AMS can provide valuable information about the aerosol water concentrations if the sample is not dried.

description: We study a brane-world cosmological scenario with local inhomogeneities represented by black holes. The brane is asymmetrically embedded into the bulk. The black strings/cigars penetrating the Friedmann brane generate a Swiss-cheese type structure. This universe forever expands and decelerates, as its general relativistic analogue. The evolution of the cosmological fluid however can proceed along four branches, two allowed to have positive energy density, one of them having the symmetric embedding limit. On this branch a future pressure singularity can arise for either (a) a difference in the cosmological constants of the cosmological and black hole brane regions (b) a difference in the left and right bulk cosmological constants. While the behaviour (a) can be avoided by a redefinition of the fluid variables, (b) establishes a critical value of the asymmetry over which the pressure singularity occurs. We introduce the pressure singularity censorship which bounds the degree of asymmetry in the bulk cosmological constant. We also show as a model independent generic feature that the asymmetry source term due to the bulk cosmological constant increases in the early universe. In order to obey the nucleosynthesis constraints, the brane tension should be constrained therefore both from below and from above. With the maximal degree of asymmetry obeying the pressure singularity censorship, the higher limit is 10 times the lower limit. The degree of asymmetry allowed by present cosmological observations is however much less, pushing the upper limit to infinity.

description: This paper investigates the anti-jamming performance of the NR-DCSK system. We consider several practical jamming environments including broad-band jamming (BBJ), partial-time jamming (PTJ), tone jamming (TJ) consisting of both single-tone and multi-tone, and sweep jamming (SWJ). We first analytically derived the bit error rates of the considered system under the BBJ and the PTJ environments in closed-form expressions. Our derived results show that the system performances under these two jamming environments are enhanced as $P$ increases, where $P$ is the parameter of the NR-DCSK modulation scheme denoting the number of times a chaotic sample is repeated. In addition, our results demonstrate that for the PTJ, the optimal value of the jamming factor is close to zero when the jamming power is small, however, it increases and approaches one as the jamming power enlarges. We then investigate the performance of the considered system under the TJ and the SWJ environments via Monte-Carlo simulations. Our simulations show that single-tone jamming causes a more significant performance degradation than that provided by multi-tone jamming counterparts. Moreover, we point out that the system performance is significantly degraded when the starting frequency of the sweep jammer is close to the carrier frequency of the transmitted chaotic signals, the sweep bandwidth is small, and the sweep time is half of the transmitted bit duration.

description: Saturn's large and diffuse E ring is populated by microscopic water ice dust particles, which originate from the Enceladus plume. Cassini’s Cosmic Dust Analyser sampled these ice grains, revealing three compositional particle types with different concentrations of salts and organics. Here, we present the analysis of CDA mass spectra from several orbital periods of Cassini, covering the region from interior to Enceladus’ orbit to outside the orbit of Rhea, to map the distribution of the different particle types throughout the radial extent of the E ring. This will provide a better understanding of the potential impact of space weathering effects on to these particles, as the ice grains experience an increasing exposure age during their radially outward migration. In this context, we report the discovery of a new ice particle type (Type 5), which produces spectra indicative of very high salt concentrations, and which we suggest to evolve from less-salty Enceladean ice grains by space weathering. The radial compositional profile, now encompassing four particle types, reveals distinct radial variations in the E ring. At the orbital distance of Enceladus our results are in good agreement with earlier compositional analyses of E ring ice grains in the moon's vicinity. With increasing radial distance to Saturn however, our analysis suggests a growing degree of space weathering and considerable changes to the spatial distribution of the particle types. We also find that the proportion of Type 5 grains – peaking near Rhea's orbit – probably reflects particle charging processes in the E ring.

description: A new iso-C14 [Val2, Val7] surfactin isoform (1) together with eight known ones (2–9), was isolated from the culture of a mushroom derived bacterium, Bacillus halotolerans DMG-7-2. The structures of them were mainly elucidated by NMR and MS data, and the NMR data of 5 also was reported for the first time. The absolute configuration of 1 was determined by Marfey’s analysis (for amino acid residues) and the 13C NMR calculation of the two plausible epimers of 1 (for fatty acid). Compounds 1–9 showed moderate cytotoxicity against two human cancer cell lines (A549, MCF-7) and mice microglial BV2 cells, the IC50 values ranged from 8.91 to 33.00 µM, and the IC50 values of the positive control 5-FU were 99.94, 71.49 and 0.12 µM, respectively.

description: Cytochromes P450 (CYPs) are a group of monooxygenases that can be found in almost all kinds of organisms. For CYPs to receive electrons from co-substrate NADPH, the activity of NADPH-Cytochrome-P450-oxidoreductase (CPR) is required as well. In humans, CYPs are an integral part of liver-based phase-1 biotransformation, which is essential for the metabolization of multiple xenobiotics and drugs. Consequently, CYPs are important players during drug development and therefore these enzymes are implemented in diverse screening applications. For these applications it is usually advantageous to use mono CYP microsomes containing only the CYP of interest. The generation of mono-CYP containing mammalian cells and vesicles is difficult since endogenous CYPs are present in many cell types that contain the necessary co-factors. By obtaining translationally active lysates from a modified CHO-CPR cell line, it is now possible to generate mono CYPs in a cell-free protein synthesis process in a straightforward manner. As a proof of principle, the synthesis of active human CYPs from three different CYP450 gene families (CYP1A2, CYP2B6 and CYP3A4), which are of outstanding interest in industry and academia was demonstrated. Luciferase based activity assays confirm the activity of the produced CYPs and enable the individual adaptation of the synthesis process for efficient cell-free enzyme production. Furthermore, they allow for substrate and inhibitor screenings not only for wild-type CYPs but also for mutants and further CYP isoforms and variants. As an example, the turnover of selected CYP substrates by cell-free synthesized CYPs was demonstrated via an indirect luciferase assay-based screening setup.

description: Humidity influences the tribological performance of the head-disk interface in magnetic data storage devices. In this work a quartz crystal microbalance was used to measure the uptake of water on amorphous hydrogenated carbon (a-CHx) films at room temperature and pressures of water corresponding to relative humidities of ~25%: These experiments have used a-CHx films of varying thickness with and without lubricant. The lubricants used included Fomblin Z-03, Z-disoc, and Z-tetraol deposited on the surfaces of a-CHx films of various thickness. The amount of water adsorbed on the unlubricated a-CHx films is roughly independent of a-CHx film thickness. The presence of the lubricant reduces the amount of adsorbed water; however, the amount of water adsorbed in the presence of a lubricant does not depend significantly on the type of lubricant. These observations imply that water is adsorbed on the surfaces of the lubricant or the a-CHx film rather than being absorbed in their bulk.
Intervalley scattering, long-range disorder, and effective time reversal symmetry breaking in graphene

description: We discuss the effect of certain types of static disorder, like that induced by curvature or topological defects, on the quantum correction to the conductivity in graphene. We find that when the intervalley scattering time is long or comparable to $τ_ϕ$, these defects can induce an effective time reversal symmetry breaking of the hamiltonian associated to each one of the two valleys in graphene. The phenomenon suppresses the magnitude of the quantum correction to the conductivity and may result in the complete absence of a low field magnetoresistance, as recently found experimentally. Our work shows that a quantitative description of weak localization in graphene must include the analysis of new regimes, not present in conventional two dimensional electron gases.

description: Timelimited functions and bandlimited functions play a fundamental role in signal and image processing. But by the uncertainty principles, a signal cannot be simultaneously time and bandlimited. A natural assumption is thus that a signal is almost time and almost bandlimited. The aim of this paper is to prove that the set of almost time and almost bandlimited signals is not excluded from the uncertainty principles. The transforms under consideration are integral operators with bounded kernels for which there is a Parseval Theorem. Then we define the wavelet multipliers for this class of operators, and study their boundedness and Schatten class properties. We show that the wavelet multiplier is unitary equivalent to a scalar multiple of the phase space restriction operator. Moreover we prove that a signal which is almost time and almost bandlimited can be approximated by its projection on the span of the first eigenfunctions of the phase space restriction operator, corresponding to the largest eigenvalues which are close to one.
The Dairy practitioners' opportunity to improve the cow's environment
Creators: name: Jones, Gordon A.
Publisher: name: The Bovine Practitioner
Year: 1990

description: Performance is the new standard that dairy farms and dairy practitioners are being judged by. Everyday, a dairy practitioner has opportunities to view subpar performance of both the dairy livestock and the total system (housing, ventilation, feeding, cattle handling, etc.). Cow performance increases as the environment becomes more cow friendly. Many times, the environment may be healthy enough to keep the cow healthy, but not friendly enough to increase performance. Taking these opportunities and giving leadership to the dairy farm is rewarding to both the veterinarian and the dairyman. There are four major reasons for improving the environment. First, we can improve the animal's health, both clinically and subclinically. Healthy animals are needed to perform optimally but they are not necessarily profitable animals unless managed profitably. Second, we can improve and measure the improvement of the animal's performance, i.e., pounds of milk per cow per day, rate of gain, reproductive efficiency and labor efficiency. Third, we can improve the operator's health and safety. The last reason is that we can improve the building's health and longevity.

Toward the optimal integrated production of biodiesel with internal recycling of methanol produced from glycerol

Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: 90499 Chemical Engineering not elsewhere classified

description: In this article, we present the optimization of the production methanol from glycerol and its integration in the production of biodiesel from algae. We propose a limited superstructure where the glycerol from biodiesel is first reformed for which steam reforming and autoreforming are evaluated. The gas obtained is cleaned up and its composition is adjusted in terms of the ratio CO/H2 using three possible alternatives (bypass, PSA and water gas shift). Next, the removal of CO2 is performed by means of PSA and the syngas is fed to the methanol synthesis reactor and the products obtained are separated. This synthesis is coupled with the production of biodiesel from algae using heterogeneous catalyzed reaction based on previous results. The optimization of the system is formulated as a Mixed Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) that is solved for the simultaneous optimization and heat integration of the production of biodiesel with recycle of methanol followed by water integration. The best process involves the use of autoreforming for a production cost of $0.66 gal−1, 3.65 MJ/gal of energy consumption and water consumption of 0.79 gal/gal. The integrated process is $0.2 gal−1 more expensive than the one that directly uses methanol but reduces in more than half the dependency of the process on fossil fuels.

description: Despite the common expectation that conjugated organic molecules on metals adsorb in a flat-lying layer, several recent studies have found coverage-dependent transitions to upright-standing phases, which exhibit notably different physical properties. In this work, we argue that from an energetic perspective, thermodynamically stable upright-standing phases may be more common than hitherto thought. However, for kinetic reasons, this phase may often not be observed experimentally. Using first-principles kinetic Monte Carlo simulations, we find that the structure with lower molecular density is (almost) always formed first, reminiscent of Ostwald’s rule of stages. The phase transitions to the upright-standing phase are likely to be kinetically hindered under the conditions typically used in surface science. The simulation results are experimentally confirmed for the adsorption of tetracyanoethylene on Cu(111) using infrared and X-ray photoemission spectroscopy. Investigating both the role of the growth conditions and the energetics of the interface, we find that the time for the phase transition is determined mostly by the deposition rate and, thus, is mostly independent of the nature of the molecule.

description: Light manipulations such as spin-direction locking propagation, robust transport, quantum teleportation and reconfigurable electromagnetic pathways have been investigated at the boundaries of photonic systems. Recently by breaking Dirac cones in time-reversal invariant photonic crystals, valley-pseudospin coupled edge states have been employed to realize selective propagation of light. Here, without photonic boundaries, we realize the propagation of pseudospin states in three-dimensional bulk metacrystal waveguides by employing the ubiquitous valley degree of freedom. Valley-dependent pseudospin bands are achieved in three-dimensional metacrystal waveguides without Dirac cones. Reconfigurable photonic valley Hall effect is proposed after studying the variation of pseudospin states near K' and K valleys. Moreover, a prototype of photonic blocker is realized by cascading two inversion asymmetric metacrystal waveguides in which the pseudospin direction locking propagation exists. In addition, valley-dependent pseudospin bands are also discussed in a realistic metamaterials sample. These results show an alternative way towards molding the pseudospin flow in photonic systems.

description: This paper describes the mechanical design of the downstream beam transport line for the second axis of the Dual Axis Radiographic Hydrodynamic Test (DARHT II) Facility. The DARHT-II project is a collaboration between LANL, LBNL and LLNL. DARHT II is a 20-MeV, 2000-Amperes, 2-msec linear induction accelerator designed to generate short bursts of x-rays for the purpose of radiographing dense objects. The down-stream beam transport line is approximately 20-meter long region extending from the end of the accelerator to the bremsstrahlung target. Within this proposed transport line there are 15 conventional solenoid, quadrupole and dipole magnets; as well as several speciality magnets, which transport and focus the beam to the target and to the beam dumps. There are two high power beam dumps, which are designed to absorb 80-kJ per pulse during accelerator start-up and operation. Aspects of the mechanical design of these elements are presented.

description: Due to the broadcast nature of wireless medium, wireless communication is highly vulnerable to eavesdropping attack. Traditionally, secure wireless data transmission has relied on cryptographic techniques at the network layer which incur high computational power and complexity. As an alternative, physical layer security (PLS) is emerging as a promising paradigm to protect wireless systems by exploiting the physical characteristics of the wireless channels. Among various PLS approaches, the one based on cooperative communication is favorable and has got a lot of interest from the research community. Although PLS schemes with half-duplex relays have been extensively discovered, the issue of PLS in cooperative systems with full-duplex (FD) relays is far from being comprehensively understood. In this paper, we first present the state of the art on PLS approaches proposed for FD cooperative systems. We then provide a case study in which a source-based jamming scheme is proposed to enhance the secrecy performance of a cooperative system with an untrusted FD relay. Finally, we outline several interesting yet challenging future research problems in this topic.

description: In this study, the biotransformation of ursolic acid by Circinella muscae CGMCC 3.2695 was investigated. Scaled-up biotransformation reactions yielded ten metabolites. Their structures were established based on extensive NMR and HR-ESI-MS data analyses, and four of them are new compounds. C. muscae could selectively catalyze hydroxylation, lactonisation, carbonylation and carboxyl reduction reactions. Furthermore, all the identified metabolites were evaluated for their anti-neuroinflammatory activities in LPS-induced BV-2 cells. Most metabolites displayed pronounced inhibitory effect on nitric oxide (NO) production. The results suggested that biotransformed derivatives of ursolic acid might be served as potential neuroinflammatory inhibitors.

description: The role of Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis in diseases of sheep and goats, particularly caseous lymphadenitis, is well recognized. However, there are few reports in the North American literature of Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis causing diseases of cattle. There is a case report of Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis associated with otitis media in feedlot cattle but there are no reports of its association with skin disease of cattle. By contrast, the Egyptian literature contains many case reports of an "oedematous skin" disease which occurs primarily in buffalo, but which has also been reported in cattle. Edematous skin disease is associated with C. pseudotuberculosis. In this report the clinical findings are described for a herd that was affected by an outbreak of severe skin disease associated with Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis. Pathology, microbiology and treatment of this condition are discussed. Herd outbreaks of this condition appear to be not uncommon in the San Joaquin Valley based on records of the California Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory System at Tulare (CVDLS) which record seven additional herd outbreaks since 1987. Herd outbreaks are characterized by the sudden onset of skin lesions in a number of animals. All outbreaks have occurred between October and February. The condition is severe and results in losses due to culling, treatment costs and problems with milking parlor cleanliness and disinfection.

description: Self-control is a personality dimension that is associated with better physical health and a longer lifespan. Here, we examined (1) whether self-control is associated with buccal and saliva DNA-methylation (DNAm) measures of biological aging quantified in children, adolescents, and adults, and (2) whether biological aging measured in buccal DNAm is associated with self-reported health. Following preregistered analyses, we computed two DNAm measures of advanced biological age (principal-component PhenoAge and GrimAge Acceleration) and a DNAm measure of pace of aging (DunedinPACE) in buccal samples from the German Socioeconomic Panel Study (SOEP-G[ene], n = 1058, age range 0–72, Mage = 42.65) and saliva samples from the Texas Twin Project (TTP, n = 1327, age range 8–20, Mage = 13.50). We found that lower self-control was associated with advanced biological age in older adults (PhenoAge Acceleration β = − .34, [− .51, − .17], p < .001; GrimAge Acceleration β = − .34, [− .49, − .19], p < .001), but not young adults, adolescents or children. These associations remained statistically robust even after correcting for possible confounders such as socioeconomic contexts, BMI, or genetic correlates of low self-control. Moreover, a faster pace of aging and advanced biological age measured in buccal DNAm were associated with self-reported disease (PhenoAge Acceleration: β = .13 [.06, .19], p < .001; GrimAge Acceleration: β = .19 [.12, .26], p < .001; DunedinPACE: β = .09 [.02, .17], p = .01). However, effect sizes were weaker than observations in blood, suggesting that customization of DNAm aging measures to buccal and saliva tissues may be necessary. Our findings are consistent with the hypothesis that self-control is associated with health via pathways that accelerate biological aging in older adults.
The Rapid detection of bovine respiratory syncytial virus antigens by use of a commercial enzyme immunoassay

description: Diagnosis of infections with BRSV have previously been limited to histopathologic descriptions of atypical interstitial pneumonia with microscopic lesions of large, multinucleated giant cells and syncytial cells in the lung. False negative fluorescent antibody (FA) tests on tissue sections may be a result of a viral infection of only superficial bronchial cells. Virus isolation is even a less successful method of identification than FA with a report in one study of 1.7% positive isolations. Most isolates require numerous subpassaging before a cytopathic effect is noticed, but even after numerous passages, the viral titers remain low. Another method for identifying current infections with BRSV is the indirect fluorescent antibody on paired sera to detect a rise in antibody titer. New rapid assays for diagnosing human respiratory syncytial virus have been compared to the slower and less sensitive conventional methods of serology and viral isolation. The enzyme immunoassays have been found to be a highly sensitive and specific technique for the identification of human respiratory syncytial virus antigens. The antigenic similarities between bovine and human respiratory syncytial virus allowed the use of the human assay for the detection of the bovine virus. The Oklahoma Animal Disease Diagnostic Laboratory evaluated the Abbott TestPack® RSV, which requires less than 30 minutes, and compared it to the slower determinations of virology, necropsy, histopathology and bacteriology.

description: Interferons (IFNs) are a group of proteins which control virus replication, exhibit anti-proliferative effectson cells, and modulate immune effector cell functions. The results of five semi-field trials summarized in the present article demonstrate that rBoIFN-αl1 affords significant protection to fattening calves against natural outbreaks of ECP. The product has proved to be similarly promising in the control of shipping fever under North American feedlot conditions.

description: Several reports indicate a positive relationship between weaning weights of beef calves and treatment of beef cows and/or calves with anthelmintics. This study was conducted to determine the effect on the weaning weight of calves when North Dakota beef cows and their calves were treated with fenbendazole. This study involved two calf crops in four different herds over a two-year period (1988-1989).

Reconstruction of a scalar voltage-based neural field network from observed time series
Creators: name: Pikovsky, A.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Chaotic Dynamics (nlin.CD)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We present a general method for reconstruction of a network of nonlinearly coupled neural fields from the observations. A prominent example of such a system is a dynamical random neural network model studied by Sompolinsky et. al [Phys. Rev. Lett., v. 61, 259 (1988)]. We develop a technique for inferring the properties of the system from the observations of the chaotic voltages. Only the structure of the model is assumed to be known, while the nonlinear gain functions of the interactions, the matrix of the coupling constants, and the time constants of the local dynamics are reconstructed from the time series.

Thermodynamics of dyonic black holes with Thurston horizon geometries

description: In five dimensions, we consider a model described by the Einstein gravity with a source given by a scalar field and various Abelian gauge fields with dilatonic-like couplings. For this model, we are able to construct two dyonic black holes whose three-dimensional horizons are modeled by two nontrivial homogeneous Thurston's geometries. The dyonic solutions are of Lifshitz type with an arbitrary value of the dynamical exponent. In fact, the first gauge field ensures the anisotropy asymptotic while the remaining Abelian fields sustain the electric and magnetic charges. Using the Hamiltonian formalism, the mass, the electric and magnetic charges are explicitly computed. Interestingly enough, the dyonic solutions behave like Chern-Simons vortices in the sense that their electric and magnetic charges turn to be proportional. The extension with an hyperscaling violating factor is also scrutinized where we notice that for specific values of the violating factor, purely magnetic solutions are possible.

description: Wetland restoration has received increasing attention to compensate for the continuing loss of natural wetlands and revive biodiversity and associated ecological functions. The development of methods for assessing the effectiveness of restoration measures is important for wetland management. However, most studies assessing restoration success in freshwater ecosystems are based on taxonomic biodiversity; trait-based approaches remain limited, particularly in wetland ecosystems. Here, we assess the effectiveness of wetland restoration in the Sanjiang Plain, Northeast China, based on the trait composition and functional diversity of aquatic insect assemblages. We found that functional richness in restored wetlands was significantly higher than impacted wetlands but lower than natural wetlands. Compared to natural wetlands, functional beta diversity of impacted wetlands was higher. In terms of dissimilarity between wetland types, trait composition of aquatic insects in restored wetlands showed a higher similarity to natural wetlands compared to those in impacted wetlands. Trait compositions of aquatic insect assemblages in restored wetlands were more similar to impacted wetlands in May but showed a greater similarity to natural wetlands in October. Our study shows that restoration measures have facilitated the partial recovery of functional diversity and trait composition of aquatic insect assemblages in the Sanjiang Plain wetlands. Our study confirms the potential of using trait-based approach to assess the effectiveness of wetland restoration. Given that assessments based on taxonomic and trait data can provide complementary information, we recommend incorporating both taxonomic and functional metrics and considering seasonal dynamics of wetlands in post-restoration monitoring and assessment in wetlands.
