[Austrian Low Countries, Europe's animal health pioneer, 1769-1776].

Rev Sci Tech 25(3):951-60 (2006) PMID 17361762

Two previously unpublished manuscripts reveal how innovative the Austrian Low Countries were when they introduced an animal health policy to control rinderpest in 1769. The policy was novel in that it replaced the slaughter of individual sick animals with herd slaughter. Unfortunately, a number of neighbouring countries failed to emulate this sure-fire method of controlling rinderpest, among them France.

    We use a radiation hydrodynamic simulation that models the growth of galaxies And the extragalactic ultraviolet ionizing background (EUVB) self-consistently To study the sources of OI absorption during the hydrogen reionization epoch. Diffuse regions in the intergalactic medium (IGM) are reionized b...
