description: The objectives of this study were to evaluate rectal temperature as a diagnostic tool in postpartum dairy cows and to compare body temperature and white blood cell counts in cows that remained healthy with those that became ill. Fifty Holstein dairy cows had complete physical examinations every four hours and a complete blood count once daily for the first 10 days after calving. Illness was defined as a rectal temperature of at least 104.5Â°F (40.3Â°C) in the absence of other clinical signs, or a clinical sign of illness other than increased temperature. Fifteen cows were diagnosed with illness and 35 remained healthy throughout the 10-day study period. No difference between mean rectal temperatures of cows that became ill and cows that remained healthy was found. Among cows that remained healthy, 23 (66%) had a rectal temperature of at least 103.1Â°F (39.5Â°C) at least once, 17 (49%) had a rectal temperature of at least 103.5Â°F (39.7Â°C) at least once and six (17%) had a rectal temperature of at least 104Â°F (40Â°C) at least once during the study period. Over the first three days after calving, mean total white blood cell counts and neutrophil counts were higher in healthy cows than in cows that became ill. Because rectal temperatures were frequently elevated in healthy postpartum cows, it was concluded that rectal temperature has low specificity for diagnosing illness in postpartum dairy cows in the absence of other clinical signs.

description: The frustrated one-dimensional (1D) quantum magnet LiCuSbO$_4$ is one rare realization of the $J_1-J_2$ spin chain model with an easily accessible saturation field, formerly estimated to 12~T. Exotic multipolar nematic phases were theoretically predicted in such compounds just below the saturation field, but without unambiguous experimental observation so far. In this paper we present extensive experimental research of the compound in the wide temperature (30mK$-$300K) and field (0$-$13.3T) range by muon spin rotation ($μ$SR), $^7$Li nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and magnetic susceptibility (SQUID). $μ$SR experiments in zero magnetic field demonstrate the absence of long range 3D ordering down to 30mK. Together with former heat capacity data [S.E. Dutton \emph{et al}, Phys. Rev. Lett. 108, 187206 (2012)], magnetic susceptibility measurements suggest short range correlated vector chiral phase in the field range $0-4$T. In the intermediate field values (5$-$12T), the system enters in a 3D ordered spin density wave phase with 0.75$μ_B$ per copper site at lowest temperatures (125mK), estimated by NMR. At still higher field, the magnetization is found to be saturated above 13T where the spin lattice $T_1^{-1}$ relaxation reveals a spin gap estimated to 3.2(2)K. We narrow down the possibility of observing a multipolar nematic phase to the range 12.5$-$13T.

description: A 2.5-year-old, mixed-breed rodeo bull was examined with a four-month history of ataxia and weakness in the pelvic limbs. The neurologic signs were noted while the bull was on pasture breeding cows. Spinal radiographs revealed a compression fracture of the 13th thoracic vertebrae, and myelography showed impingement of the spinal cord due to the fracture. Necropsy examination confirmed the diagnosis of a compression fracture of T13 with secondary damage to the spinal cord. Vertebral fractures are uncommon in adult cattle, yet this case appears to be unrelated to any previously published causes. Furthermore, myelography can be an effective diagnostic test in the evaluation of spinal cord disease in adult cattle.

description: This paper presents MiniBox, the first two-way sandbox for x86 native code. MiniBox not only isolates the memory space between OS protection modules and an application, but also provides a minimized and secure communication interface between OS protection modules and the application. MiniBox is cross-platform and can be applied in Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) cloud computing to provide two-way protection between a customer’s application and the cloud platform OS. We implement a prototype of MiniBox on both Intel and AMD multi-core systems and port several applications toMiniBox. Evaluation results show thatMiniBox is efficient and practical.

description: Antigen-capture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ACE) testing of skin samples obtained by ear-notching is commonly used to detect animals persistently infected (PI) with bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV). At times practitioners may not have access to phosphate buffered saline (PBS) solution for specimen storage as suggested by the ACE kit manufacturer. The first objective of this study was to observe the effects of storing ear-notch samples in varying amounts of PBS on ACE results. The second objective was to observe the effects of delayed time before the ear-notch sample was placed in PBS on the ACE results. Using virus isolation and immunohistochemistry, nine PI-positive and eight PI-negative calves were identified to obtain ear notch biopsies for the study. The amount of PBS used to store both positive and negative ear-notch samples was varied (1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 mL) in the first trial. In the second trial, the addition of PBS to both positive and negative samples was delayed post-collection; phosphate buffered saline was added to ear-notch samples at 0, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours post-collection. Following sampling and application of treatments, all samples were tested in duplicate for BVDV antigen following the guidelines of the ACE kit manufacturer. Although the S/P ratios were different among treatment groups in both studies (P<0.05), neither varying the amount of PBS added to the sample vial nor delaying the addition of PBS to the sample affected the outcome when testing positive or negative samples.

Steers receiving TIL-MHT at processing had 17% fewer first time treatments for BRD (P=0.0002) than calves in the TIL group, and a 19% lower relapse rate (P=0.003). TIL-MHT calves had 22% less mortality (P=0.03) than calves in the TIL group. Calves receiving TIL-MHT had $1.37 (P<0.0001) and $13.14/head (P=0.03) lower therapy and mortality costs, respectively, than calves in the TIL group. In total, combined processing, therapy, railer (culls) and mortality costs for TIL-MHT calves were $14.77 lower (P=0.01) than TIL group calves.

description: Some modifications of a Rectangular Waveguide HOM couplers for TESLA superstructure have been investigated. These RWG HOM couplers are to be installed between the cavities of the superstructure and also at the both ends of it. We investigated a RWG HOM coupler attached to the beam pipe through the slots orientated along beam pipe axis (longitudinal slots), perpendicular to it (azimutal slots) and at some angle to this axis. For dipole modes of both polarizations damping two RWG in every design were used. This paper presents the results obtained for scaled-up setup at 3 GHz at room temperature. The advantages of HOM coupler with longitudinal slots for damping dipole modes and compact HOM coupler with slots at some angle to the axis are shown. Arrangement of HOM coupler in cryostat and heating due to HOM and FM losses are presented. Calculations and design of the feeding RWG coupler for superstructure are also presented.

description: We analyze the density and size dependence of the relaxation time $τ$ for kinetically constrained spin systems. These have been proposed as models for strong or fragile glasses and for systems undergoing jamming transitions. For the one (FA1f) or two (FA2f) spin facilitated Fredrickson-Andersen model at any density $ρ<1$ and for the Knight model below the critical density at which the glass transition occurs, we show that the persistence and the spin-spin time auto-correlation functions decay exponentially. This excludes the stretched exponential relaxation which was derived by numerical simulations. For FA2f in $d\geq 2$, we also prove a super-Arrhenius scaling of the form $\exp(1/(1-ρ))\leq τ\leq\exp(1/(1-ρ)^2)$. For FA1f in $d$=$1,2$ we rigorously prove the power law scalings recently derived in \cite{JMS} while in $d\geq 3$ we obtain upper and lower bounds consistent with findings therein. Our results are based on a novel multi-scale approach which allows to analyze $τ$ in presence of kinetic constraints and to connect time-scales and dynamical heterogeneities. The techniques are flexible enough to allow a variety of constraints and can also be applied to conservative stochastic lattice gases in presence of kinetic constraints.

description: The evolution of the luminosity distance in a contracting universe is studied. It is shown that for quite a lot of natural dynamical evolutions, its behavior is far from trivial and its value can even decrease with an increasing time interval between events. The consequences are investigated and it is underlined that this could both put stringent consistency conditions on bouncing models and open a new observational window on "pre Big Bang" physics using standard gravitational waves.

description: Recent studies have shown that router misconfigurations are pervasive and have dramatic consequences for the operations of networks. Not only can misconfigurations compromise the security of a single network, they can even cause global disruptions in Internet connectivity. Several solutions have been proposed that can detect a number of problems in real configuration files. However, these solutions share a common limitation: they are rule-based. Rules are assumed to be known beforehand, and violations of these rules are deemed misconfigurations. As policies typically differ among networks, rule-based approaches are limited in the scope of mistakes they can detect. In this paper, we address the problem of router misconfigurations using data mining. We apply association rules mining to the configuration files of routers across an administrative domain to discover local, network-specific policies. Deviations from these local policies are potential misconfigurations. We have evaluated our scheme on configuration files from a large state-wide network provider, a large university campus and a high-performance research network, and found promising results. We discovered a number of errors that were confirmed and later corrected by the network engineers. These errors would have been difficult to detect with current rule-based approaches.

description: We present vacuum spacetime solutions of first order gravity, which are described by the exterior Schwarzschild geometry in one region and by degenerate tetrads in the other. The invertible and noninvertible phases of the tetrad meet at an intermediate boundary across which the components of the metric, affine connection and field-strength are all continuous. Within the degenerate spacetime region, the noninvertibility of the tetrad leads to nonvanishing torsion. In contrast to the Schwarzschild spacetime which is the unique spherically symmetric solution of Einsteinian gravity, all the field-strength components associated with these vacuum geometries remain finite everywhere.

description: In the present paper, we propose a source camera identification method for mobile devices based on deep learning. Recently, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have shown a remarkable performance on several tasks such as image recognition, video analysis or natural language processing. A CNN consists on a set of layers where each layer is composed by a set of high pass filters which are applied all over the input image. This convolution process provides the unique ability to extract features automatically from data and to learn from those features. Our proposal describes a CNN architecture which is able to infer the noise pattern of mobile camera sensors (also known as camera fingerprint) with the aim at detecting and identifying not only the mobile device used to capture an image (with a 98\% of accuracy), but also from which embedded camera the image was captured. More specifically, we provide an extensive analysis on the proposed architecture considering different configurations. The experiment has been carried out using the images captured from different mobile devices cameras (MICHE-I Dataset was used) and the obtained results have proved the robustness of the proposed method.

description: We present first results from pilot observations using a phased array feed (PAF) mounted on the Parkes 64-m radio telescope. The observations presented here cover a frequency range from 1150 to 1480 MHz and are used to show the ability of PAFs to suppress standing wave problems by a factor of $\sim10$ which afflict normal feeds. We also compare our results with previous HIPASS observations and with previous HI images of the Large Magellanic Cloud. Drift scan observations of the GAMA G23 field resulted in direct HI detections at $z=0.0043$ and $z=0.0055$ of HIPASS galaxies J2242-30 and J2309-30. Our new measurements generally agree with archival data in spectral shape and flux density, with small differences being due to differing beam patterns. We also detect signal in the stacked HI data of 1094 individually undetected galaxies in the GAMA G23 field in the redshift range $0.05 \leq z \leq 0.075$. Finally, we use the low standing wave ripple and wide bandwidth of the PAF to set a $3σ$ upper limit to any positronium recombination line emission from the Galactic Centre of $<0.09$ K, corresponding to a recombination rate of $<3.0\times10^{45}\,\mathrm{s}^{-1}$.

description: In an attempt to understand the source and propagation of galactic cosmic rays we have employed the Modified Weighted Slab technique along with recent values of the relevant cross sections to compute primary to secondary ratios including B/C and Sub-Fe/Fe for different galactic propagation models. The models that we have considered are the disk-halo diffusion model, the dynamical halo wind model, the turbulent diffusion model and a model with minimal reacceleration. The modified weighted slab technique will be briefly discussed and a more detailed description of the models will be given. We will also discuss the impact that the various models have on the problem of anisotropy at high energy and discuss what properties of a particular model bear on this issue.

description: The design of a detector based on MICROMEGAS (MICRO MEsh GAseous Structure) technology is presented. Our detector is characterized by a large active area of 398(\times)281 mm(^{2}), a pad read-out with 20(\times)22 mm(^{2}) segmentation, and an uniform amplification gap obtained by insulating spacers (100 (μ)m high and 200 (μ)m in diameter). The performances of several prototypes have been evaluated under irradiation with secondary beams of 2 GeV/c momentum charged pions and electrons. We consider such a detector as the basic element for a pre-shower detector to equip the PHOton Spectrometer (PHOS) of the ALICE experiment. Its assets are modularity, small amount of material, robustness and low cost.

description: We have investigated the formation of tungsten oxide nanowires under different CVD conditions. We find that exposure of oxidized tungsten films to hydrogen and methane at 900C leads to the formation of a dense array of typically 10 nm diameter nanowires. Structural and chemical analysis shows that the wires are crystalline WO3. We propose a chemically-driven whisker growth mechanism in which interfacial strain associated with the formation of tungsten carbide stimulates nanowire growth. This might be a general concept, applicable also in other nanowire systems.

description: Software upgrades are one of the leading causes of downtime in IT infrastructures. Long running data migration processes require intensive up-front preparation, extended maintenance windows and close monitoring, and they impose a significant burden on the system administrators. Even worse, major upgrades sometimes fail due to complex, hidden dependencies within the system, causing unplanned downtime and loss of critical data. In this paper, we propose a technique for converting an offline data-migration process into a dependency-agnostic online upgrade that requires minimal administrative intervention and that eliminates the need for planned downtime. We illustrate our technique by walking the reader through a hypothetical, but realistic online upgrade scenario in a medium-sized IT infrastructure – namely, hot-swapping the wiki software that underlies Wikipedia with an entirely different wiki engine.

description: The Milky Way's Galactic Center harbors a gamma-ray excess that is a candidate signal of annihilating dark matter. Dwarf galaxies remain predominantly dark in their expected commensurate emission. In this work we quantify the degree of consistency between these two observations through a joint likelihood analysis. In doing so we incorporate Milky Way dark matter halo profile uncertainties, as well as an accounting of diffuse gamma-ray emission uncertainties in dark matter annihilation models for the Galactic Center Extended gamma-ray excess (GCE) detected by the Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope. The preferred range of annihilation rates and masses expands when including these unknowns. Even so, using two recent determinations of the Milky Way halo's local density leave the GCE preferred region of single-channel dark matter annihilation models to be in strong tension with annihilation searches in combined dwarf galaxy analyses. A third, higher Milky Way density determination, alleviates this tension. Our joint likelihood analysis allows us to quantify this inconsistency. We provide a set of tools for testing dark matter annihilation models' consistency within this combined dataset. As an example, we test a representative inverse Compton sourced self-interacting dark matter model, which is consistent with both the GCE and dwarfs.

Chemical tagging experiment with the Gaia-ESO open clusters

description: Stars observed in the field of an open cluster are ideal for a controlled test of chemical tagging. Using chemical tagging, one should identify the cluster members, i.e., those stars of similar chemical composition, if their composition is indeed different from that of all the non-member stars of the field. Moreover, the abundance-based membership can be checked against membership based on radial velocities and proper motions. Here, I report preliminary results of such an experiment using data from the Gaia-ESO Survey. Although the three membership criteria usually agree, a few interesting examples of discrepant membership classification have been found. In addition, the mean composition of each open cluster was compared to a sample of 1600 Gaia-ESO field stars. Some cases of field stars with abundances matching those of the open clusters were identified. This experiment suggests that open clusters do not necessarily have unique abundance patterns that set them apart from all other clusters.

description: Floors of trucks or trailers were sampled for Salmonella before culled dairy cows were loaded from cooperating farms and auction markets in New York (East) and California (West) prior to transport to slaughter establishments. Sampling occurred during two periods, winter and summer. These vehicles were sampled again after cattle were unloaded at slaughter establishments. Four of six vehicles picking up cattle from dairy farms were positive for Salmonella spp. before cattle were loaded at East locations during winter, while five of seven were positive during the summer. One of five vehicles picking up cattle from auction markets was positive for Salmonella spp. at an East location during winter, while all four sampled during the summer period were positive. During winter at the West location all trucks or trailers were positive for Salmonella . During the summer sampling, nine of 13 vehicles that arrived at dairy farms and four of six that arrived at auction markets to pick up cattle were positive for Salmonella before cattle were loaded. Biosecurity procedures need to address the risk of Salmonella contamination from cattle transport.

Accretion column disruption in GX 1+4

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: Daily observations of the binary X-ray pulsar GX 1+4 were made with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) satellite between 1997 May 16-20 as part of a four-month monitoring program. On May 17 the sharp dips normally observed in the lightcurve were all but absent, resulting in a pulse fraction f_p approx. 0.5 instead of the more typical value of approx. 0.8 measured before and after. Also observed was a dramatic hardening of the 2-40 keV phase-averaged spectrum. The power-law photon index was 1.16 +/- 0.02, whereas values of 1.6-2.0 are more typical. In terms of a Comptonization continuum component, the optical depth for scattering was tau approx 19, with 4-6 the usual range for RXTE spectra (Galloway 2000). Pulse-phase spectrosopy indicates that tau is decreased relative to the phase-averaged value around the primary minimum, where an increase is normally observed. The reduced depth of the dip is interpreted as disruption of the accretion column, and the accompanying spectral variation suggests a substantially different accretion regime than is usual for this source.

description: We build on a long-standing tradition in astronomical adaptive optics (AO) of specifying performance metrics and error budgets using linear systems modeling in the spatial-frequency domain. Our goal is to provide a comprehensive tool for the calculation of error budgets in terms of residual temporally filtered phase power spectral densities and variances. In addition, the fast simulation of AO-corrected point spread functions (PSFs) provided by this method can be used as inputs for simulations of science observations with next-generation instruments and telescopes, in particular to predict post-coronagraphic contrast improvements for planet finder systems. We extend the previous results and propose the synthesis of a distributed Kalman filter to mitigate both aniso-servo-lag and aliasing errors whilst minimizing the overall residual variance. We discuss applications to (i) analytic AO-corrected PSF modeling in the spatial-frequency domain, (ii) post-coronagraphic contrast enhancement, (iii) filter optimization for real-time wavefront reconstruction, and (iv) PSF reconstruction from system telemetry. Under perfect knowledge of wind velocities, we show that $\sim$60 nm rms error reduction can be achieved with the distributed Kalman filter embodying anti- aliasing reconstructors on 10 m class high-order AO systems, leading to contrast improvement factors of up to three orders of magnitude at few $λ/D$ separations ($\sim1-5λ/D$) for a 0 magnitude star and reaching close to one order of magnitude for a 12 magnitude star.

Diagnosing twin pregnancies in Holstein cows
Creators: name: Smith, Billy I.
Publisher: name: The Bovine Practitioner
Year: 2008

description: Cattle are capable of carrying twins to term, and the pregnancy can be unicornual or bicornual. Risk factors associated with twinning include genetics, breed, parity, ovulation rate and milk production. Methods such as palpation per rectum and transrectal ultrasonography can be used to diagnose twin pregnancies in cattle. This case report demonstrates the usefulness of transrectal ultrasonography for early detection of twin pregnancies between 55 and 83 days of gestation over an approximately two-year period (2001-2003), and provides information on the outcome of 64 cows (case population) randomly identified with twin pregnancies. Of the 64 cows, 48 (75%) animals delivered twins, one (1.6%) animal delivered a single calf, 13 (20.3%) cows aborted the pregnancy and two (3.1%) animals died prior to calving. This study should support the importance of accurately diagnosing and understanding outcomes of twin pregnancies in cattle. Further research is warranted to better understand the dynamics surrounding twin pregnancies in cattle.

description: As small mobile devices such as mobile phones become increasingly sophisticated, they are beginning to be used for highly securitysensitive applications such as payment systems, stock trading, and access control systems. The increasing importance ofmobile phones exposes the tremendous lack of access control systems that restrict access to the legitimate user. In fact, a lost mobile phone “delegates” all rights to its new owner. The main challenges in designing a secure user authentication system for small mobile devices are the miniaturization as well as the requirement for usability across a wide range of people. In this paper, we propose and evaluate a novel mechanism for user authentication. The cognitive process we rely on is the human ability to recognize degraded images; degraded images are easily recognized by legitimate users who have been being exposed to the original picture. On the other hand, without knowledge of the original image, it is difficult to mentally “revert” from the degraded image to the original image, which provides a line of defense against guessing attacks. We implement a prototype user authentication system in Nokia N70 cellular phones, and conduct a usability study of our scheme with 54 participants. We find that all users manage to authenticate, even after four weeks, which is a strong indication that the scheme is usable by a wide range of people, even on miniaturized portable devices. We anticipate that this research will revitalize and encourage research in the important topic of portable device based user authentication.
