description: We introduced in a previous paper a general notion of asymptotic morphism of a given local net of observables, which allows to describe the sectors of a corresponding scaling limit net. Here, as an application, we illustrate the general framework by analyzing the Schwinger model, which features confined charges. In particular, we explicitly construct asymptotic morphisms for these sectors in restriction to the subnet generated by the derivatives of the field and momentum at time zero. As a consequence, the confined charges of the Schwinger model are in principle accessible to observation. We also study the obstructions, that can be traced back to the infrared singular nature of the massless free field in d=2, to perform the same construction for the complete Schwinger model net. Finally, we exhibit asymptotic morphisms for the net generated by the massive free charged scalar field in four dimensions, where no infrared problems appear in the scaling limit.

description: We use the two-point correlation function in redshift space, $ξ(s)$, to study the clustering of the galaxies and groups of the Nearby Optical Galaxy (NOG) sample, which is a nearly all-sky, complete, magnitude-limited sample of $\sim$7000 bright and nearby optical galaxies. The correlation function of galaxies is well described by a power law, $ξ(s)=(s/s_0)^{-γ}$, with slope $γ\sim1.5$ and $s_0\sim6.4 h^{-1}$Mpc (on scales $2.7 - 12 h^{-1}$Mpc), in agreement with previous results of several redshift surveys of optical galaxies. We confirm the existence of morphological segregation between early- and late-type galaxies and, in particular, we find a gradual decreasing of the strength of clustering from the S0 galaxies to the late-type spirals, on intermediate scales. Furthermore, luminous galaxies turn out to be more clustered than dim galaxies. The luminosity segregation, which is significant for both early- and late-type objects, starts to become appreciable only for galaxies brighter than $M_B\sim -19.5 + 5 \log h$ ($\sim 0.6 L^*$) and is independent on scale. The NOG group correlation functions are characterized by $s_0$-values ranging from $\sim 8 h^{-1}$ Mpc (for groups with at least three members) to $\sim10 h^{-1}$ Mpc (for groups with at least five members). The degree of group clustering depends on the physical properties of groups. Specifically, groups with greater velocity dispersions, sizes and masses tend to be more clustered than those with lower values of these quantities.

Some aspects of statistical theory in nuclear reactions
Creators: name: Lang, Donald Wilson
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1960
Subjects: Nuclear reactions statistics

description: At high enough energies it is apparent that the nucleus ought to be and is well described as a Fermi gas of independent particles. At lower energies the study of individual levels becomes possible and the prediction of their properties is in many cases possible from shell model studies. There is an energy region in which the statistical distribution only of levels is know and it is certainly different in its behaviour from that of an infinite Fermi gas. Whether the terms introduced to describe a finite Fermi gas instead of an infinite one are sufficient to overcome these discrepancies, and if not what sort of residual interactions must be postulated, has some bearing on the shell model calculations already mentioned. (First three paragraphs of introduction).

description: We present a many-body approach to calculate the ground state properties of a system of electrons in a half-filled Landau level. Our starting point is a simplified version of the recently proposed trial wave function where one includes the antisymmetrization operator to the bosonic Laughlin state. Using the classical plasma analogy, we calculate the pair-correlation function, the static structure function and the ground state energy in the thermodynamic limit. These results are in good agreement with the expected behavior at $ν=\frac12$.

Unified Theory

description: In this paper, we explore the hypothesis that electromagnetism (EM) arises as an emergent phenomenon driven by quantum entanglement constraints in the vacuum. Building on analogies from condensed matter physics, holography, and quantum information, we propose that photons—massless spin-1 excitations—can be viewed as “fungible” quanta born out of a deeply entangled ground state. We sketch a possible lattice-based framework wherein local constraints, reminiscent of Gauss’s law, generate an emergent  gauge invariance. We outline how one might test this idea by calculating entanglement measures and correlation functions, showing that in principle it can reproduce the low-energy physics of electromagnetism. Our purpose is not to claim definitive proof, but to highlight a conceptual and potentially verifiable path for treating the electromagnetic field as a product of fundamental entanglement.

On the theory of vortex quantum tunnelling in the dense Bose superfluid helium II

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: Condensed Matter (cond-mat)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The quantum tunnelling and nucleation theory of vortices in helium II is reviewed. Arguments are given that the only reliable method to calculate tunnelling probabilities in this highly correlated, strongly interacting many-body system is the semiclassical, large scale approach for evaluation of the tunnelling exponent, which does not make any assumptions about the unknown dynamical behaviour of the fluid on microscopic scales. The geometric implications of this semiclassical theory are represented in some detail and its relevance for the interpretation of experimental data is discussed.

description: Hooke's law states that the forces or stresses experienced by an elastic object are proportional to the applied deformations or strains. The number of coefficients of proportionality between stress and strain, i.e., the elastic moduli, is constrained by energy conservation. In this Letter, we lift this restriction and generalize linear elasticity to active media with non-conservative microscopic interactions that violate mechanical reciprocity. This generalized framework, which we dub odd elasticity, reveals that two additional moduli can exist in a two-dimensional isotropic solid with active bonds. Such an odd-elastic solid can be regarded as a distributed engine: work is locally extracted, or injected, during quasi-static cycles of deformation. Using continuum equations, coarse-grained microscopic models, and numerical simulations, we uncover phenomena ranging from activity-induced auxetic behavior to wave propagation powered by self-sustained active elastic cycles. Besides providing insights beyond existing hydrodynamic theories of active solids, odd elasticity suggests design principles for emergent autonomous materials.

description: There are at least three different types of secular effects in the two-point correlation functions in scalar quantum field theories in de Sitter space-time. The first one is specific to de Sitter massless and tachyonic minimally coupled scalar fields. The remaining two are generic and are encountered practically in any non-stationary situation in quantum field theory. Furthermore there are secular effects in the n-point correlation functions for low enough mass. They are also specific to de Sitter quantum field theory. In this paper we focus on the differences between the secular effects in two-point functions. We discuss also their character in different patches of de Sitter space-time - global, expanding and contracting Poincaré patches.

Torres Strait Islanders and Autonomy: a Borderline Case

description: During 1996 and 1997 an Australian parliamentary committee conducted an inquiry into greater autonomy for Torres Strait Islanders, but by 2000 the future of the issue seemed unclear. This thesis explores what the notion of autonomy has meant for Torres Strait and for Torres Strait Islanders in the past, and what it might mean in the future. The thesis uses material from the period before European contact to just after the end of the parliamentary inquiry. Although previous research and historical material are utilised, unique parts of the thesis include an analysis of: the formal submissions and hearings associated with the parliamentary inquiry; the Torres Strait’s location between Australia and Papua New Guinea; and the Strait’s small-island make-up. In this latter regard, comparisons are made with models and examples of autonomy found in small island states and territories in the Pacific. The findings include that we must consider two groups of Torres Strait Islanders, those in Torres Strait and those on mainland Australia. Whereas those in the Strait have been able to legitimise a case for a form of autonomy those on the mainland have not. Islanders in the Strait have achieved a degree of regional autonomy; those on the mainland are unable to make a case to be part of this regional autonomy, or to achieve a form of corporate autonomy. The status of Islanders in the Strait is influenced by several factors including the Strait’s location on the border with Papua New Guinea, the associated Treaty with that country, and the nature and the accessibility of the in-shore fishery. A major finding however is that although Islanders have achieved a degree of regional political autonomy, which may be progressed yet further, they have been unable to embrace non-Indigenous people within this. Their present aspiration for regional political autonomy therefore is limited to one that would apply only to Indigenous-specific affairs. This stands in some conflict with their aspiration for regional economic autonomy which would include their control over the entire regional fishery which they presently share with non-Islanders.

description: Traditionally, researchers employ human raters for scoring responses to creative thinking tasks. Apart from the associated costs this approach entails two potential risks. First, human raters can be subjective in their scoring behavior (inter-rater-variance). Second, individual raters are prone to inconsistent scoring patterns (intra-rater-variance). In light of these issues, we present an approach for automated scoring of Divergent Thinking (DT) Tasks. We implemented a pipeline aiming to generate accurate rating predictions for DT responses using text mining and machine learning methods. Based on two existing data sets from two different laboratories, we constructed several prediction models incorporating features representing meta information of the response or features engineered from the response’s word embeddings that were obtained using pre-trained GloVe and Word2Vec word vector spaces. Out of these features, word embeddings and features derived from them proved to be particularly effective. Overall, longer responses tended to achieve higher ratings as well as responses that were semantically distant from the stimulus object. In our comparison of three state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms, Random Forest and XGBoost tended to slightly outperform the Support Vector Regression.

(Figs 192–205)
 Diagnosis. Opsiphanes merianae stat. rest. and Opsiphanes fabricii are nearly indistinguishable based on their external morphology (Figs 192a, 193c), and are differentiated by their genitalia. While in the male of Opsiphanes merianae stat. rest. the anterior margin of the tegumen in dorsal view has a slight median concavity, in Opsiphanes fabricii the tegumen has an anteriorly projected margin. The female of Opsiphanes merianae stat. rest. has two parallel signa, while Opsiphanes fabricii has a C-shaped signum. Opsiphanes merianae stat. rest. is closely related to Opsiphanes fabricii, Opsiphanes jacobsorum, and Opsiphanes periphetes stat. nov. (genetic distance 1.2–1.9%, 1.2–1.6%, and 1.1–2.8%, respectively), and is not sympatric with any of them.
 Male genitalia. Tegumen in dorsal view with anterior margin with a slight concavity in the median region and as wide as the posterior margin; anterior projection of saccus in lateral view twice as long as dorsal arms of saccus; fultura inferior wider in the median portion (Fig. 199).
 Female genitalia. Lamella antevaginalis membranous medially and sclerotized laterally; lamella postvaginalis rounded medially; ostium membranous; initial portion of the ductus bursae sclerotized; corpus bursae longer than the ductus bursae, bearing two parallel signa (Fig. 200).
 Variation. Subspecies vary in the following characters: DFW, the width of the band in the discal cell, and in the recesses of the anterior and posterior margins of this band; and the width and length of the oblique band. DHW, near the distal margin of the humeral cell, with or without a spot of variable length that sometimes reaches and merges with the submarginal band. VFW, the width and length of the oblique band. VHW, the size and shape of the eyespot between Sc+R 1 and M 1, and the width of its dark-brown ring; the size and shape of the eyespot between M 3 and CuA 2; zigzag EIII submarginal line is not always evident (Figs 192–198).

description: We present X-ray and radio studies of sources which are brightabove 1 GeV (F_{>1GeV} > 4e-8 ph/cm^2/s. Only 11 out of ~30 of these gamma-ray sources have been identified with lower energy counterparts: 5 blazars and 6 pulsars. Three of these pulsars are surrounded by radio pulsar wind nebulae (PWN), two of which are also seen as bright, extended X-ray synchrotron nebulae. The ASCA X-ray telescope has observed 28 of the bright GeV sources, revealing an excess of F_{2-10keV} > 10e-12 ergs/cm^2/s sources within the {\it EGRET} error contours of the unidentified sources. Although several supernova remnants are positionally coincident with these sources, we find no X-ray evidence of high energy particle production in SNR shell shocks consistent with the GeV positions. We also present initial results from follow on radio imaging studies of several fields containing unidentified sources. We have discovered new X-ray/radio nebulae in three of these fields which are strong candidates for PWN. These sources, along with a similar nebula in CTA 1 and the PWN around PSR B1853+01 in W44, are all positionally coincident with variable EGRET sources. This suggests a class of variable gamma-ray sources associated with synchrotron emitting regions powered by the winds of young pulsars.

description: Calculating microscopic optical potentials for elastic nucleon-nucleus scattering has already led to large body of work in the past. For folding first-order calculations the nucleon-nucleon (NN) interaction and the one-body density of the nucleus were taken as input to rigorous calculations in a spectator expansion of the multiple scattering series. Based on the Watson expansion of the multiple scattering series we employ a nonlocal translationally invariant nuclear density derived from a chiral next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) and the very same interaction for consistent full-folding calculation of the effective (optical) potential for nucleon-nucleus scattering for light nuclei. We calculate scattering observables, such as total, reaction, and differential cross sections as well as the analyzing power and the spin-rotation parameter, for elastic scattering of protons and neutrons from $^4$He, $^{6}$He, $^{12}$C, and $^{16}$O, in the energy regime between 100 and 200~MeV projectile kinetic energy, and compare to available data. Our calculations show that the effective nucleon-nucleus potential obtained from the first-order term in the spectator expansion of the multiple scattering expansion describes experiments very well to about 60 degrees in the center-of-mass frame, which coincides roughly with the validity of the NNLO chiral interaction used to calculate both the NN amplitudes and the one-body nuclear density.

description: Objective: This study aims to assess the measurement properties of the Major Depression Inventory (MDI) in a clinical sample of primary care patients. Design: General practitioners (GPs) handed out the MDI to patients aged 18–65 years on clinical suspicion of depression. Setting: Thirty-seven general practices in the Central Denmark Region participated in the study. Patients: Data for 363 patients (65% females, mean age: 49.8 years, SD: 17.7) consulting their GP were included in the analysis. Main outcome measures: The overall fit to the Rasch model, individual item and person fit, and adequacy of response categories were tested. Statistical tests for local dependency, unidimensionality, differential item functioning, and correct targeting of the scale were performed. The person separation reliability index was calculated. All analyses were performed using RUMM2030 software. Results: Items 9 and 10 demonstrated misfit to the Rasch model, and all items demonstrated disordered response categories. After modifying the original six-point to a five-point scoring system, ordered response categories were achieved for all 10 items. The MDI items seemed well targeted to the population approached. Model fit was also achieved for core symptoms of depression (items 1–3) and after dichotomization of items according to diagnostic procedure. Conclusion: Despite some minor problems with its measurement structure, the MDI seems to be a valid instrument for identification of depression among adults in primary care. The results support screening for depression based on core symptoms and dichotomization of items according to diagnostic procedure.Key pointsThe Major Depression Inventory (MDI) is widely used for screening, diagnosis and monitoring of depression in general practice.This study demonstrates misfit of items 9 and 10 to the Rasch model and a need to modify the scoring systemThe findings support screening for depression based on core symptoms and dichotomization of items according to diagnostic procedure.Minor problems with measurement structure should be addressed in future revisions of the MDI.

description: The present study evaluates the impact of two commercially available composts on the accumulation of trace metals in soil and spinach, and their potential health risks to humans. The treatments were municipal waste compost (MC) and agricultural waste compost (AC) applied at 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5% (w/w)—with the recommended dose of NPK fertilizers (50:25:0) as a control. Trace metals concentrations (Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn) in both composts were below the threshold level. The improved spinach yield with MC was 2.77, 16.88, and 42.34% and with AC 5.53, 17.19, and 53.38% over the control at 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5% levels, respectively. Concentrations of Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn in spinach leaves were found higher than permissible limits at all levels of MC. However, Cu, Pb, and Zn were recorded within safe limits with AC except for Cd (which was at 1.0% and 1.5%). The daily intake of trace metals and their health risk index were found higher at elevated levels (1.0% and 1.5%) of MC and AC. The results revealed that besides all the benefits of commercial composts, they must be regularly monitored to avoid buildup of trace metals in soils and plants as well as their potential risks to human health at higher dose.

"We are Australian": An Ethnographic Investigation of the convergence of community music and reconciliation

Subjects: Community music

description: This thesis examines the convergence of the community music movement and the reconciliation movement in Australia. It analyses the contextualised, contested and complicated nature of the movements as well as the expression of the convergence in community choral events and choirs that bring together Indigenous and non-Indigenous singers into the layered and textured lived experienced of ‘singing in between’. The community music movement in Australia reclaims music, making it accessible to everyone. It declares the individual and social benefits of making music, particularly with others. The reconciliation movement prompts cross-cultural engagement, recognition of Indigenous contributions to Australia, and, most recently, constitutional change. It seeks, of course, reconciliation between Australia’s Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples. Both these popular movements provide opportunities for engagement in social and cultural justice. Both movements, however, are embedded with rhetorical discourses and threaded with notions that cloud and clutter. As a multi-sited ethnography the thesis provides a methodological and theoretical foundation that delivers a descriptive and interpretative analysis of the specific and localised expressions from case study choirs based in South East Australia, South West Australia and Central Australia. An interdisciplinary research project, the thesis also examines field research methodology and the creation of intimacy and knowledge, engaging with discussions within ethnomusicology and other disciplines about these aspects of ethnographic research. The thesis engages with academic research from numerous disciplines: Ethnomusicology, Anthropology, Musicology, Popular Music Research, Cultural Studies, Sociology, Cultural Geography, Music Psychology, History and others. It draws on publications on and from within Community Music, Reconciliation, Arts, and Community Development. I incorporate the voices of the singers through conversations, comments and communication and through the publications and documents of choirs, choir leaders, and music organisations, including their online presence. In this thesis I provide a snapshot of the way in which the community interactions explore, express and represent reconciliation through music making, and in so doing, how they prompt the reshaping of individual, local and national notions of identity, community and the practice of music.

description: Three flavonoid compounds were isolated from the roots of medicinal plant Tadehagi triquetrum (L.) H.Ohashi, also known as Desmodium triquetrum (Fabaceae). On the basis of the chemical and spectral analysis, the compounds were identified as baicalein (Flavone), naringin and neohesperidin (Flavonone). To the best of our knowledge and based on the literature survey all three compounds were first time reported from this medicinal plant.

description: Optimization of applications for supercomputers of the highest performance class requires parallelization at multiple levels using different techniques. In this contribution we focus on parallelization of particle physics simulations through vector instructions. With the advent of the Scalable Vector Extension (SVE) ISA, future ARM-based processors are expected to provide a significant level of parallelism at this level.

Subjects: subject: leadership
subject: Kyaka
subject: New Guinea Highland
subject: Kyaka

description: This thesis discusses leadership among the Kyaka, a New Guinea Highland people who have been under European Administration since about 1947. It does this by examining the role of the numi, or Big Man, in the main fields of social activity and in relation to the formally recognised social groups and relationships, which are conceived mainly in terms of kinship and descent. In particular, it attempts to relate the patterm of achieved leadership to the loose or irregular nature of the segmentary patrilineal descent groups which diverge from the standard lineage model in the incompleteness of their genealogical frames.

description: We analyzed 6 hours of data from the TAMA300 detector by matched filtering, searching for gravitational waves from inspiraling compact binaries. We incorporated a two-step hierarchical search strategy in matched filtering. We obtained an upper limit of 0.59/hour (C.L.=90%) on the event rate of inspirals of compact binaries with mass between 0.3M_solar and 10M_solar and with signal-to-noise ratio greater than 7.2. The distance of 1.4M_solar (0.5M_solar) binaries which produce the signal-to-noise ratio 7.2 was estimated to be 6.2kpc (2.9kpc) when the position of the source on the sky and the inclination angle of the binaries were optimal.

Cancer

description: Dehydrocurvularin (DCV) is a promising lead compound for anti-cancer therapy. Unfortunately, the development of DCV-based drugs has been hampered by its poor solubility and bioavailability. Herein, we prepared a DCV-loaded mPEG-PLGA nanoparticles (DCV-NPs) with improved drug properties and therapeutic efficacy. The spherical and discrete particles of DCV-NPs had a uniform diameter of 101.8 ± 0.45 nm and negative zeta potential of −22.5 ± 1.12 mV (pH = 7.4), and its entrapment efficiency (EE) and drug loading (DL) were ∼53.28 ± 1.12 and 10.23 ± 0.30%, respectively. In vitro the release of DCV-NPs lasted for more than 120 h in a sustained-release pattern, its antiproliferation efficacy towards breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7, MDA-MB-231, and 4T1) was better than that of starting drug DCV, and it could be efficiently and rapidly internalised by breast cancer cells. In vivo DCV-NPs were gradually accumulated in tumour areas of mice and significantly suppressed tumour growth. In summary, loading water-insoluble DCV onto nanoparticles has the potential to be an effective agent for breast cancer therapy with injectable property and tumour targeting capacity.

description: Opsiphanes cuspidatus Stichel, 1904 stat. nov.
(Figs 213–218)
 Diagnosis. Opsiphanes cuspidatus stat. nov. is distinguished from Opsiphanes invirae by the DFW without an isolated spot in the discal cell and by the oblique yellow band that may or may not reach 2A. Opsiphanes cuspidatus stat. nov. has the FW with a more acute apex than in Opsiphanes invirae (Fig. 213). Geographical distributions can also be used to separate the two species; while Opsiphanes cuspidatus stat. nov. subspecies are trans-Andean, Opsiphanes invirae subspecies are cis-Andean. Molecular analyses recovered Opsiphanes cuspidatus stat. nov. as closely related to Opsiphanes invirae (Fig. 2) (1.9–2.8% genetic distance).

description: This interim report describes the approach taken to creating training materials in the FREYA project and provides an overview of the materials created and links to them. Up to this point in the project the team has migrated and update the FREYA Knowledge Hub to a new location on pidforum.org. FREYA has also collaborated with a wide range of stakeholders, including other European projects, to broaden the reach of the training materials and co-organise events which appeal to a broader audience, including co-organising several joint events and creating a guide on personal identifiers. The report also discusses the successes and challenges encountered in creating training materials thus far. In the next six months, prior to submission of the final report, the project will evaluate the training materials created and refine them where possible to better suit users’ needs.The sustainability of the Knowledge Hub content will also be addressed. In addition, with the ongoing development of the PID Graph, further materials will be created to support early adopters and all events will be evaluated to inform and improve future events.
Formalizing Cyber--Physical System Model Transformation via Abstract Interpretation

description: Model transformation tools assist system designers by reducing the labor--intensive task of creating and updating models of various aspects of systems, ensuring that modeling assumptions remain consistent across every model of a system, and identifying constraints on system design imposed by these modeling assumptions. We have proposed a model transformation approach based on abstract interpretation, a static program analysis technique. Abstract interpretation allows us to define transformations that are provably correct and specific. This work develops the foundations of this approach to model transformation. We define model transformation in terms of abstract interpretation and prove the soundness of our approach. Furthermore, we develop formalisms useful for encoding model properties. This work provides a methodology for relating models of different aspects of a system and for applying modeling techniques from one system domain, such as smart power grids, to other domains, such as water distribution networks.

description: By using finiteness related result of non-abelian tensor product we prove finiteness conditions for the homotopy groups $π_n(X)$ in terms of the number of tensors. In particular, we establish a quantitative version of the classical Blakers-Massey triad connectivity theorem. Moreover, we study others finiteness conditions and equivalence properties that arise from the non-abelian tensor square. In the end, we give applications to homotopy pushout, especially in the case of Eilenberg-MacLane spaces.
Negotiation for arms control, 1955-60

Publisher: name: The Australian National University

Subjects: disarmament

description: The chief negative aim of this thesis is to avoid duplicating the narrative accounts of post-war negotiations already published by certain Western authors. Bechhoefer's book is the most thorough narrative account of post-war negotiations, and also the only account which systematically goes behind the negotiations to study policy debates in the Western camp, and especially in the United States. I have avoided this large subject almost completely in order to focus attention on the more formal ele ents of the negotiating process. (First paragraph of Preface).
Delocalization in an open one-dimensional chain in an imaginary vector potential

description: We present first results for the transmittance, T, through a 1D disordered system with an imaginary vector potential, ih, which provide a new analytical criterion for a delocalization transition in the model. It turns out that the position of the critical curve on the complex energy plane (i.e. the curve where an exponential decay of is changed by a power-law one) is different from that obtained previously from the complex energy spectra. Corresponding curves for or are also different. This happens because of different scales of the exponential decay of one-particle Green's functions (GF) defining the spectra and many-particle GF governing transport characteristics, and reflects higher-order correlations in localized eigenstates of the non-Hermitian model.

Australia

description: This thesis is a study of industrial development in Australia between 1920 and 1930. The study has been conducted at several levels of analysis. Chapters II to VI examine the growth of some of the leading industries and firms engaged in manufacturing; their selection is based on an assessment - for which support is offered - of the character and conditions of the industrial expansion during this decade. In chapters VII to IX some of the more general problems and processes associated with this growth are examined. The introductory chapter reviews the industrial development of the twenties as a whole.
