AN ECONOMIC COMPARISON OF TIMOTHY HARVESTED AS HAY, DIRECT-CUT SILAGE, OR WILTED SILAGE
Mclsaac, J. A., and J. Lovering. 1982. An economic comparison of timothy harvested as hay, direct-cut silage or wilted silage. Can. Agric. A computermodelwasusedto comparethree modes of harvesting and storingtimothy: direct-cutsilage, wiltedsilage, and hay. Hay was found to be the most profitable of the harvest modes for 40-, 80-and 120-cow herds when two cuts of timothy were taken, in the circumstances where land was not a constraint. In the situation where land was a constraint (the area available on which to grow forage could not be increased) and the herd size could be increased to consume all the forage available, the silage systems were more profitable than the hay system, with direct-cut silage being more profitable thanwilted silage. If bothlandandherdsizewere constraining the expansion of the dairyfarm, the hay system would be the most profitable one

Noiseless optical amplification in quasi-phase-matched bulk lithium niobate
An optical parametric amplifier (OPO) has been demonstrated in bulk, periodically poled lithium niobate and is shown to operate with a noise figure well below the classical limit. In contrast to conventional OPSs, this device uses quasi-phase matching to provide the coupling between the pump and the signal. Comparison of the measured performance with that of a theoretical model reveals that the main intrinsic contribution to the output noise is due to spatial and temporal mode mixing, which arises as a consequence of tight focusing of the incident beams. Factors that affect the performance of this amplifier are identified theoretically and their relative importance investigated for both amplification and squeezing
Noiseless, quasi-phase-matched parametric amplifier in bulk lithium niobate
Although noiseless optical amplification has been demonstrated in bulk KTP crystals, and is well understood, there have been no observations of noiseless optical amplification in bulk quasi-phase-matched (QPM) systems. That such an amplifier is possible was predicted recently and indeed squeezing has already been observed in QPM waveguides (using KTP and LiNbO3). QPM materials are attractive for use in quantum-optical devices because they give access to certain (large) components of the nonlinear susceptibility tensor that cannot be used in conventional birefringent phase-matching schemes. They also extend the range of materials accessible for use in parametric amplifiers to include some low-birefringence crystals exhibiting large nonlinearities. Even with the technological advantages offered by certain QPM crystals, efforts to find practical applications for optical parametric amplifiers are hampered by the need for enormous pump-field strengths. The obvious solution to the problem of the pump-field requirement is to confine the incident energy to a narrow interaction region thereby increasing the energy density. However, this approach can only be realised at the expense of sacrificing the homogeneity of the parametric interaction between pump and signal waves. This in turn causes vacuum field fluctuations from parasitic modes to be mixed into the signal mode thereby degrading the signal to noise ratio and negating the advantage of using an optical parametric amplifier. In the experiments presented here, optical signals have been amplified with up to 9dB of gain, yet with a noise figure (NF) of only 1.09, as compared to the minimum possible NF of a classical amplifier with the same gain which would equal 1.86. Furthermore, the interaction is achieved with tightly focused incident fields in a sample of bulk QPM lithium niobate. The entire interaction region is only 200µm thick and 2.8mm long. This performance was achieved with the aid of a theoretical model m which the effect of wavefront curvature and mode distortion are treated within a quantised mode framework using a spatial mode basis. Such a simulation permits the fundamental origin of the excess quantum noise to be easily traced to zero-point fluctuations of high-order spatial modes which couple to the signal mode via the parametric interaction. Furthermore the simulation enabled an experimental geometry to be selected in which an optimal compromise is made between wavefront matching bump beam smaller than signal) and pump-homogeneity (pump larger than signal), so that the overall noise figure remains well into the quantum-performance region
