Partialism, Executive Control, and the Deportation of Permanent Residents from Australia
Authors: Nethery Amy 
Published: June 2012

ABSTRACTMany migration policies in Western democracies can be categorised as what Matthew J. Gibney calls a ‘partialist’ approach to migration. Drawing from communitarian, conservative, and constitutionalist realist political theories, a partialist approach prioritises the interests and values of citizens and the community over the needs of non‐citizens. Stepping outside the normative debate, this paper examines the political implications of a partialist approach to migration policies. The paper argues that it is possible for such policies to be inconsistent with liberal democratic processes of government. Specifically, there is a risk that partialist ideas can be used to justify policies that set aside legal and administrative checks and balances in favour of executive control over migration policies. This is evident in the Australian policy of deportation of long‐term permanent residents on character grounds. The paper argues that partialist ideas have been used to justify a high level of executive control over deportations. Executive control is achieved in three ways: broad powers of ministerial discretion; a mechanical bureaucracy, and the use of immigration detention. The cumulative effect means that deportation policy is implemented without the checks and balances fundamental to ensuring limits to executive power. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

AbstractThe melt‐quenching method was used to prepare two groups of samples using CdO and V2O5 as starting materials. Taking into account that a crystalline‐amorphous phase transition would be expected for the CdO–V2O5 system, a first batch was prepared varying the proportions of CdO and V2O5 in the intervals 60–95 and 40–5 wt%, respectively. With the aim of investigating the effect of erbium in the phase transition and crystalline quality of the first group of samples, a second batch was fabricated with the same proportions of CdO and V2O5, with the addition of 5 wt% of Er(NO3)5H2O as source of Er3+ ions. It was found that crystalline or amorphous samples could be obtained depending on the relative concentrations of CdO and V2O5, and that the borderline between amorphous and crystalline samples was affected by the incorporation of Er. From X‐ray diffraction, it was possible to identify the formation of the ternary compound Cd2V2O7 in the crystalline cases. The Raman and infrared bands in these samples were in agreement with the lattice modes of Cd2V2O7. Additionally, an improvement in the crystalline quality of Cd2V2O7 was obtained for the Er‐doped samples. The effect of the local environment around the Er3+ ions on the room temperature photoluminescence was also investigated for the amorphous and crystalline samples.
Advantages of near‐ultraviolet light‐emitting diodes with polarization‐matched InGaN/AlGaInN multi‐quantum wells

Published: June 2012

AbstractAdvantages of near‐ultraviolet light‐emitting diodes with polarization‐matched InGaN/AlGaInN multi‐quantum wells (QWs) are investigated numerically. Simulation results show that, the polarization‐matched structure possesses improved efficiency droop and higher output power under high current injection due to better overlap of electron‐hole wavefunctions and slighter Auger recombination. The optical performance of the polarization‐matched structure can benefit from the enhanced capability of carrier confinement with the employment of larger bandgap electron‐blocking layer and wider QWs.
The Effect of Colour Contrast on Consumers' Attentive Behaviours and Perception of Fresh Produce

Published: June 2012

SUMMARYThe market for fruits and vegetables has received considerable interest in recent years, with much of its growth attributed to consumer interest in nutrition and health. Quality has been indicated to be the most important factor in produce sales, and appearance is of noted significance with regard to perceived quality.The broad objectives of this research were to identify the impact of simultaneous colour contrast (i.e. the produce viewed through a mesh bag) on (a) attentive behaviours as measured by eye tracking and (b) perceived quality, visual appeal and purchase intention as measured with a Likert scale. To accomplish these objectives, six different types of produce (red apples, oranges, lemons, green apples, purple onions and white onions) were photographed with four differently coloured mesh treatments: the same (as the produce), complementary, complementary‐analogous and analogous. Visual stimuli were then presented during the eye tracking study and in a subsequent questionnaire.Colour contrast was found to have a significant effect on both resultant eye tracking variables [number of visual fixations (p < 0.001) and time spent (p < 0.001)]. Produce shown with mesh of the same, or an analogous colour, induced significantly more visual fixations and more time than those depicted with complementary or complementary‐analogous treatments.Subsequent to the eye tracking study, subjects were shown the stimuli and asked to rate the expected quality, visual appeal and their purchase intention for the 24 photographs (6 types of produce × 4 colour contrasts) by using a Likert scale. Pairwise comparisons suggested that produce packaged in the same or analogous mesh were perceived by subjects to be of higher quality, more visually appealing and evoked a higher level of purchase intention than those packaged in complementary or complementary‐analogous mesh (α = 0.05).

Theoretical study of gas phase reactions of important SOA intermediates: (cis‐ and trans‐) BEPOX and β‐IEPOX with OH radical
Authors: Kong Chui‐Peng , Zhao Zeng‐Xia , Zhang Hong‐Xing 
Published: June 2012

AbstractMechanisms for hydroxide radicals reacting with 2,3‐epoxy‐1,4‐butanediol (BEPOX) and 2‐methyl‐2,3‐epoxy‐1,4‐butanediol (β‐IEPOX) in the gas phase are investigated using quantum chemistry computations. Geometries of all the structures are optimized at the X3LYP/6‐31+g(d,p) level. The ground‐state energy for each structure is then refined at the CCSD(T)/6‐31+g(d,p) level. All possible reaction paths for BEPOX and β‐IEPOX are analyzed. The results show that during BEPOX and β‐IEPOX gas phase reactions, hydrogen abstractions on CchainH are the most energetically favorable reaction paths (S3, S7) while the addition reactions (S6, S9) are not likely to occur. The present theoretical study is consistent with previous experimental results. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
Solvatofluorochromism and twisted intramolecular charge‐transfer state of the nile red dye
Authors: Ya. Freidzon Alexandra , Safonov Andrei A. , Bagaturyants Alexander A. , Alfimov Michael V. 
Published: June 2012

AbstractProfiles of the S1 potential energy surface of the Nile Red dye along the rotational coordinate of the amino group are computed using time‐dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) and XMCQDPT2/CASSCF. The calculated profiles exhibit two minima corresponding to a planar locally excited (LE) state and a twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) state. The profiles calculated by time‐dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) depend on the weight of the hartree‐fock (HF) exchange in the functional: at 0% exchange, only the TICT minimum exists, whereas at 50% exchange and more there is only the LE minimum. The profiles obtained by TDDFT at 20–25% HF exchange are in qualitative agreement with that obtained by XMCQDPT2/CASSCF calculations. The energy of the charge transfer state is lowered due to the participation of doubly excited configurations and dynamic correlations, which is implicitly included in the density functionals. The solvent effects on the relative energies of the LE and TICT states and on the barrier height are studied using the polarizable continuum model. The effect of hydrogen bonds is studied for a complex of Nile Red with two water molecules. The solvatochromism of Nile Red fluorescence in aprotic polar solvents is explained by nonspecific solvation, which stabilizes the LE state and causes Nile Red fluorescence solvatochromism; in water and alcohols, it is explained by the formation of hydrogen bonds, which stabilize the TICT state and facilitate the LE‐to‐TICT transition. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
GPS spoofer countermeasure effectiveness based on signal strength, noise power, and C/N0 measurements
Authors: Jafarnia Jahromi Ali , Broumandan Ali , Nielsen John , Lachapelle Gérard 
Published: June 2012

SUMMARYSpoofing sources can effectively disrupt a GPS receiver during the acquisition phase by generating multiple false correlation peaks and increasing the noise floor. Such deceptive correlation peaks can mislead the GPS receiver into acquiring the spoofer generated signals rather than the authentic signals. Also, the spoofer can increase the receiver noise floor to bury the authentic signals in the noise and at the same time generate correlation peaks with amplitudes commensurate with reasonable C/N0 expectations. The main focus of this paper is on assessment of the reduced effectiveness of the GPS spoofer countermeasure during acquisition where the GPS receiver utilizes C/N0 discrimination. As shown, whereas the C/N0 discrimination is of limited effectiveness, with a modest circuit modification, the receiver can measure the absolute power of the correlation peaks, which is an effective means of detecting and discriminating spoofer sources. It will be shown that employing absolute power monitoring technique considerably reduces the vulnerability region of the receiver compared with the C/N0 monitoring techniques.

Religious thought and behavior
Authors: Lawson Ernest Thomas 
Published: June 2012

AbstractWhile earlier approaches to religious thought and practice searched for ‘magic bullet’ approaches to explain religious thought and behavior, seeing it as an example of irrationality, illusion, integrative force, symbolism, or false explanations of origins, cognitive scientific approaches have suggested that we see it rather as an aggregate of the products of various cognitive mechanisms. Studies in the cognitive science of religion, informed by experimental work, have converged on a standard model of explaining religious thought and behavior by focussing on the role of minimally counter‐intuitive concepts, agent and animacy detection, ritual representations, notions of contagion and contamination avoidance, theory of mind, coalitions, and moral intuitions.WIREs Cogn Sci2012 doi: 10.1002/wcs.1189This article is categorized under:Psychology > Reasoning and Decision Making
QCD parton showers and NLO EW corrections to Drell-Yan
Authors: Richardson Peter , Sadykov Renat R. , Sapronov Andrey A. , Seymour Michael H. , Skands Peter Z. 
Published: June 2012

AbstractWe report on the implementation of an interface between the SANC generator framework for Drell-Yan hard processes, which includes next-to-leading order electroweak (NLO EW) corrections, and the Herwig++ and Pythia8 QCD parton shower Monte Carlos. A special aspect of this implementation is that the initial-state shower evolution in both shower generators has been augmented to handle the case of an incoming photon-in-a- proton, diagrams for which appear at the NLO EW level. The difference between shower algorithms leads to residual differences in the relative corrections of 2-3 % in thepT(μ) distributions atpT(μ) ≳ 50 GeV (where the NLO EW correction itself is of order 10 %).

Published: June 2012

AbstractBackgroundThe purpose of this study was to clarify the surgical indications for gastrectomy combined with distal or partial pancreatectomy (GP) in patients with gastric cancer.MethodsFrom January 1994 to December 2009, 29 patients with primary gastric cancer surgically invading the pancreas without distant organ metastasis underwent GP for R0 resection. The patients’ characteristics, surgical data, and clinicopathological features were used for the analysis of survival and prognostic factors.ResultsThe median disease‐free survival and median survival time (MST) of all patients were 15 and 30 months, respectively. Only pN3 status (characterized by 7 or more pathologically metastatic lymph nodes) according to the Japanese Classification of Gastric Carcinoma, 14th edition, was shown to be a prognostic factor in a multivariate analysis. The MST of the patients with pN3 and the other patients were 12 and 51 months, respectively (p < 0.001).ConclusionsWe suggest that pancreas invasion should not be considered a contraindication for gastrectomy and that patients with a small number of lymph node metastases (six or fewer) might be candidates for GP in the case of gastric cancer that requires pancreatectomy for R0 resection.
Venturia inaequalis resistance in local Spanish cider apple germplasm under controlled and field conditions
Authors: Martínez-Bilbao Alejandro , Ortiz-Barredo Amaya , Montesinos Emilio , Murillo Jesús 
Published: June 2012

AbstractHost resistance is a key method for the integrated management of apple scab caused by Venturia inaequalis, which is one of the most important diseases of apple. Artificial inoculation of 92 cider apple cultivars with a mixed inoculum of V. inaequalis identified 19 weakly resistant and 19 resistant cultivars. Twelve of these resistant cultivars were previously classified as having low susceptibility to fire blight, and four of them showed complete or weak resistance to races (1), (1, 6) and (6, 7, 13) of V. inaequalis. The analysis of a selection of 72 cultivars for 6 years under field conditions identified 14 cultivars that were classified as resistant to apple scab under high disease pressure involving one to six Mills periods of severe risk of infection each year. Eight out of these 14 cultivars previously showed high levels of resistance to fire blight, which would allow the incorporation of genetic resistance in the integrated production of cider apples in Spain through their use in breeding programs.
Molekulare Karyotypisierung in der genetischen Diagnostik
Authors: Hackmann K. , Engels H. , Schröck E. 
Published: June 2012

Zusammenfassung
Die molekulare Karyotypisierung durch Array-CGH („comparative genomic hybridization“) und SNP-Arrays (SNP: „single nucleotide polymorphism“) ermöglicht die hochauflösende Untersuchung des gesamten Genoms, um so Gewinne und/oder Verluste (Kopienzahlvarianten, „copy number variants“, CNVs) zu detektieren, die die Ursache einer genetischen Erkrankung sein können. Diese Technik wird in erster Linie zur Ursachenklärung bei syndromalen und nichtsyndromalen (geistigen) Entwicklungsstörungen und zur genetischen Charakterisierung von Tumoren eingesetzt. Auch in der pränatalen Diagnostik könnte die molekulare Karyotypisierung bei auffälligem sonographischem Befund zur Klärung der Ursachen hilfreich sein. Der Artikel gibt eine kurze Übersicht über die grundlegenden Methoden, deren Grenzen und Stärken sowie einen Ausblick in die Zukunft.
The REE species and their distribution in ferromanganese crusts in the Sea of Japan
Authors: Astakhova N.V. , Sattarova V.V. 
Published: June 2012

Abstract
Polished sections of ferromanganese crusts on underwater rises in the Sea of Japan were studied with a JXA8100 microprobe analyser. Mineral phases of REE have been detected. They have Ln2O3 chemical composition, where Ln is La–Ce–Pr–Nd, La–Ce–Nd, or, much more rarely, La–Ce and La–Ce–Pr. With regard to the same chemical composition of REE grains in the ore crusts and basalts from Medvedev Volcano, it has been concluded that these REE were supplied during postvolcanic gas–hydrothermal processes.
Tectonic evolution of the Siberian paleocontinent from the Neoproterozoic to the Late Mesozoic: paleomagnetic record and reconstructions
Authors: Metelkin D.V. , Vernikovsky V.A. , Kazansky A.Yu. 
Published: June 2012

Abstract
In this paper we present the results of a generalization of paleomagnetic data for the territory of the Siberian craton and its folded framing that were obtained during the last fifteen years. We propose a new version of the apparent polar wander path for the Siberian continental plate, including the interval from the Mesoproterozoic–Neoproterozoic boundary up to the end of the Mesozoic. The constructed path forms the basis for new concepts on the tectonics of the Siberian paleocontinent and the paleooceans that surrounded it. We present a series of paleotectonic reconstructions based on paleomagnetic data, which not only displays the paleogeographic position of the Siberian continent, but also reveals the features of the tectonic evolution of its margins during the last billion years. In particular it has been established that large-scale strike-slip motions played an important role in the tectonic regime of the continental plate at all stages of its development.

Published: June 2012

AbstractThe shape of a plume conduit produced by melting solid paraffin block above a local heat source was studied experimentally as a function of the relative thermal power of the plume Ka = N/N1, where N1 is the power of the plume source and N1 is the power corresponding to the amount of heat transferred by conduction through the plume conduit to the surrounding solid paraffin block. The limiting power of the plume source at which the plume erupts at the Earth’s surface (Nlim1 = (1.35–1.60) × 1010 W) and the power at which the mushroom-shaped plume head formed at the base of the refractory layer (Nlim2 = (1.78–1.90) × 1010 W) with no horizontal mantle flow were determined. The dependence of the diameter of the base of the plume on the Ka number was established. The Ka value and the diameter of the plume base were determined for the Hawaiian and Iceland plumes, for the plume responsible for the formation of the Tunguska syneclise and for the McKenzie and Central Atlantic continental plateau-basalt provinces and for the Ontong Java and Manihiki oceanic lava plateaus.

Published: June 2012

BackgroundLittle is known about suicide risk among offspring of parents hospitalized for schizophrenia and the mechanisms behind this association.MethodWe applied a nested case–control design based on linkage of Swedish population-based registers. Among 12- to 30-year-old offspring, we identified 68 318 offspring with suicidal behavior (attempted and completed suicide) and their parents. Five healthy control–parent pairs were matched to each suicidal case–parent pair and conditional logistic regression used to obtain odds ratios (ORs). Further, to disentangle familial confounding from causal environmental mechanisms, we compared the population-based suicide risk with the risk found within full-cousins and half-cousins differentially exposed to parental schizophrenia.ResultsOffspring of parents with schizophrenia had significantly increased suicide risk after accounting for socio-economic status, parental suicidal behavior and offspring mental illness [OR 1.68, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.53–1.85]. Suicide risks in offspring of schizophrenic mothers and fathers were similar in magnitude; so were risks across different developmental periods. Importantly, offspring suicide risk remained essentially unchanged across genetically different relationships; offspring of siblings discordant for schizophrenia had equivalent risk increases within full-cousins (OR 1.96, 95% CI 1.66–2.31) and half-cousins (OR 1.69, 95% CI 1.17–2.44).ConclusionsParental schizophrenia was associated with increased risk of offspring suicidal behavior, independent of gender of the schizophrenic parent, and persisting into adulthood. The suicide risk in offspring remained at a similar level when comparing genetically different relationships, which suggests that at least part of the association is due to environmental mechanisms. These findings should inspire increased attention to suicidal ideation and prevention efforts in offspring of parents with schizophrenia.
A longitudinal analysis of the impact of family support on the morale of older parents in Japan: does the parent's normative belief in filial responsibilities make a difference?
Authors: TAKAGI EMIKO , SAITO YASUHIKO 
Published: June 2012

ABSTRACTJapan presents a unique social laboratory in which to examine how family support impacts on older adults’ psychological wellbeing. This is because of its cultural climate where distinctively different expectations of old-age independence and the traditional norm of filial piety coexist. This study investigated how structural and functional dimensions of the family support of older Japanese parents influence their psychological morale, and whether the impacts of family support on parents’ morale vary depending on the parents’ belief in the traditional cultural norm of filial piety. Four waves of data from the Nihon University Japanese Longitudinal Study of Aging (NUJLSOA) collected in 1999, 2001, 2003 and 2006 were analysed. Combining the two- or three-year span of longitudinal data between each wave (N=3,882), an ordered logistic regression analysis was undertaken. The results reveal that although parents who were widowed or received emotional support from a child tended to report a lower level of morale, the negative influences of such support tended to be mitigated if the parent agreed with the traditional cultural norm of filial responsibilities. These results imply that the meaning and benefit of family support may differ depending on the degree to which Japanese older parents support the traditional norm of filial responsibilities.

By the kindness of Mr. Nightingale I am enabled to lay before the Society a drawing of various Ancient Beads in his collection.I know of no objects of antiquity which, while they present so distinct a character, are at the same time so difficult to assign to a precise period, as these beads. Some may be ascribed with tolerable certainty to particular countries; but others are so widely distributed as to render the place of their fabrication a difficult point to settle.
