    A comparative study on the efficiency of water soluble phosphates and a dry phosphate lick for sheep fed on mature grass hay

    In a study with adolescent Merino sheep on a diet of mature grass hay, the supplementation with phosphates alone, either in the drinking water or as a dry lick, did not prevent loss of condition. Furthermore, in metabolism studies the phosphorus and nitrogen balances under these conditions were negative. However, the daily inclusion of small allowances of lucerne hay and maize samp to the diet resulted in increased intakes of protein and carbohydrate and ensured positive metabolism balances for phosphorus and nitrogen. Under these improved feeding conditions body weights increased. The result of feeding this diet suggested that phosphate feeding at certain times may be unnecessary under practical conditions.The journals have been scanned in colour with a HP 5590 scanner; 600 dpi.

    The SARAO MeerKAT 1.3 GHz Galactic Plane Survey

    Get PDF
    We present the SARAO MeerKAT Galactic Plane Survey (SMGPS), a 1.3 GHz continuum survey of almost half of the Galactic Plane (251○ ≤l ≤ 358○ and 2○ ≤l ≤ 61○ at |b| ≤ 1 5). SMGPS is the largest, most sensitive and highest angular resolution 1 GHz survey of the Plane yet carried out, with an angular resolution of 8″ and a broadband RMS sensitivity of ∼10–20 μJy beam−1. Here we describe the first publicly available data release from SMGPS which comprises data cubes of frequency-resolved images over 908–1656 MHz, power law fits to the images, and broadband zeroth moment integrated intensity images. A thorough assessment of the data quality and guidance for future usage of the data products are given. Finally, we discuss the tremendous potential of SMGPS by showcasing highlights of the Galactic and extragalactic science that it permits. These highlights include the discovery of a new population of non-thermal radio filaments; identification of new candidate supernova remnants, pulsar wind nebulae and planetary nebulae; improved radio/mid-IR classification of rare Luminous Blue Variables and discovery of associated extended radio nebulae; new radio stars identified by Bayesian cross-matching techniques; the realisation that many of the largest radio-quiet WISE H II region candidates are not true H II regions; and a large sample of previously undiscovered background H I galaxies in the Zone of Avoidance
