description: Bimetallic chlorodi-/triorganotin(IV) derivatives of general formulas R2(H2O)SnLCSSSn(Cl)R2 (R=Me: 1; Ph: 2) and R3Sn(Na)LCSSSnR3·H2O (R=Bu: 3; Ph: 4) were prepared by reaction of iminodiacetic acid disodium salt hydrate (Na2LH) with CS2 and R2SnCl2/R3SnCl in methanol. The reaction between Na2LH, CS2, and PdCl2 produced [Na2LCSS]2Pd·2H2O (5) which was treated with R3SnCl to synthesize the heterobimetallic derivatives [R3Sn(Na)LCSS]2Pd·2H2O (R=Me: 6; Ph: 7). The complexes were characterized by microanalysis, spectroscopic, and thermogravimetric analyses. Elemental analysis data, mass fragmentation, and thermal degradation patterns supported the molecular composition of the complexes. FT-IR data indicated monodentate binding of carboxylate while a chelating coordination mode of the dithiocarboxylate was verified in the solid state. A five-coordinate tin(IV) was demonstrated in the solid state. In solution, a tetrahedral/trigonal bipyramidal configuration around Sn(IV) and a square planar geometry of Pd(II) was indicated by multinuclear NMR (1H and 13C) and UV-visible studies. The Pd(II) derivatives showed interaction with salmon sperm-DNA and caused an inhibition of alkaline phosphatase (ALPs). The antibacterial/antifungal potential of the coordination products varied with the nature of incorporated metal and a substitution pattern at tin(IV); the palladium metallation decreased the antimicrobial activities. The triorganotin(IV) products exhibited more powerful action against bacteria/fungi as compared to their diorganotin(IV) counterparts. The complexes displayed sufficiently lower hemolytic effects in vitro as compared to triton X-100 and slightly higher than PBS.
Discourses, decisions, designs: an international comparative analysis of "special" educational policy making in New South Wales, Scotland, Finland and Malaysia

description: This research draws on a nested case-study approach to investigate the influence of neo-liberal and inclusive discourses in education policy decision-making and the design of student support structures in New South Wales (Australia), Scotland, Finland and Malaysia. Findings reveal that policies inspired by neo-liberal market theory work in opposition to the goals of inclusive education but both forces are present in varying degrees in the four jurisdictions. Largely as a result of federal direction, the New South Wales education system is the most marketised with increasing school choice, assessment benchmarking and “like-school” comparison of academic performance. Malaysia is following a similar path with a highly selective centralised education system, limited resources for inclusion and an increase in the adoption of neo-liberal steering mechanisms. More inclusive discourses can be identified from Scottish and Finnish data through active endorsement of the mainstreaming policy, equal social and academic participation for students with a disability and prompt individualised support. Telltale signs of neo-liberal policy borrowing are beginning to emerge but with little material effect to date. It is argued that an inclusive approach is conducive to the achievement of both excellence and equity in students’ learning outcomes, whereas countries that have pursued market-driven models involving competition for places in selective institutions tend to have poorer educational outcomes and wider levels of inequality.
Elucidating the role of Sn-substitution and Pb-$\Box$ in regulating stability and carrier concentration in CH$_3$NH$_3$Pb$_{1-X-Y}$Sn$_X$$\Box_Y$I$_3$

description: We address the role of Sn-substitution and Pb-vacancy (Pb-$\Box$) in regulating stability and carrier concentration of CH$_3$NH$_3$Pb$_{1-X-Y}$Sn$_X$$\Box_Y$I$_3$ perovskite using density functional theory, where the performance of the exchange-correlation functional is carefully analyzed, and validated w.r.t. available experimental results. We find the most stable configuration does not prefer any Pb at 50\% concentration of Sn. However, the Pb-$\Box$s become unfavourable above 250K due to the reduced linearity of Sn-I bonds. For n-type host the Sn substitution is more preferable than Pb-$\Box$ formation, while for p-type host the trend is exactly opposite. The charge states of both Sn and Pb-$\Box$ are found to be dependent on the Sn concentration, which in turn alters the perovskite from n-type to p-type with increasing $X$ ($>$0.5).

description: Experiments involving the two-dimensional passive diffusion of colloidal boomerangs tracked off their centre of mobility have shown striking non-Gaussian tails in their probability distribution function [Chakrabarty et al., Soft Matter 12, 4318 (2016)]. This in turn can lead to anomalous diffusion characteristics, including mean drift. In this paper, we develop a general theoretical explanation for these measurements. The idea relies on calculating the two-dimensional probability densities at the centre of mobility of the particle, where all distributions are Gaussian, and then transforming them to a different reference point. Our model clearly captures the experimental results, without any fitting parameters, and demonstrates that the one-dimensional probability distributions may also exhibit strongly non-Gaussian tops. These results indicate that the choice of tracking point can cause a considerable departure from Gaussian statistics, potentially causing some common modelling techniques to fail.

description: We revisit the possibility that the Planck mass is spontaneously generated in scale invariant scalar-tensor theories of gravity, typically leading to a "dilaton." The fifth force, arising from the dilaton, is severely constrained by astrophysical measurements. We explore the possibility that nature is fundamentally Weyl-scale invariant and argue that, as a consequence, the fifth force effects are dramatically suppressed and such models are viable. We discuss possible obstructions to maintaining scale invariance and how these might be resolved.

description: We introduce the 2nd-power skewness and kurtosis, which are interesting alternatives to the classical Pearson's skewness and kurtosis, called 3rd-power skewness and 4th-power kurtosis in our terminology. We use the sample 2nd-power skewness and kurtosis to build a powerful test of normality. This test can also be derived as Rao's score test on the asymmetric power distribution, which combines the large range of exponential tail behavior provided by the exponential power distribution family with various levels of asymmetry. We find that our test statistic is asymptotically chi-squared distributed. We also propose a modified test statistic, for which we show numerically that the distribution can be approximated for finite sample sizes with very high precision by a chi-square. Similarly, we propose a directional test based on sample 2nd-power kurtosis only, for the situations where the true distribution is known to be symmetric. Our tests are very similar in spirit to the famous Jarque–Bera test, and as such are also locally optimal. They offer the same nice interpretation, with in addition the gold standard power of the regression and correlation tests. An extensive empirical power analysis is performed, which shows that our tests are among the most powerful normality tests. Our test is implemented in an R package called PoweR.
Prehistoric settlement in the western Cumberland Plain: resources, environment and technology

description: The study of prehistory is subject to the same bias and prejudice as any other scientific discipline. When the rewards are likely to be few and the effort required great, researchers will avoid problem areas in favour of more lucrative fields. One such neglected area of research has been the archaeology of the coastal plains and forests of southeastern Australia, where poor visibility and the diffuse nature of the archaeological record militate against the investment of valuable research time. In the Sydney region, the archaeological data accumulated relate almost exclusively to rock shelter deposits. While such sites do have the potential to provide a great deal of valuable information, they reflect only a fraction of the activities carried out by the prehistoric population. In order to counteract the bias evident in the archaeological investigations, I undertook a systematic archaeological survey of the western Cumberland Plain. In the early chapters of this thesis, I examine the environmental setting and the resources which were available to Aboriginal people at the time of European settlement in 1788. After evaluating the ethnographic accounts, a clear picture emerges of two major economic systems operating; one based on coastal resources and one reliant on a wider range of locally abundant foods. Associated with this dichotomy were linguistic, technological and social differences suggestive of dense Aboriginal populations exploiting relatively narrow territories. Archaeological surveys were undertaken, a representative rockshelter site and two open sites were excavated, and, in conjunction with the surface collections of artefacts, it was possible to identify patterns in the archaeological record suggesting that the technological changes evident in the stone tools were a reflection of a changing resource base. In the final chapters, the factors which have influenced the location of sites and the distribution of artefact types are examined, and a model proposed which accounts for the observed data. The model suggests that macropodids formed a major component of the diet for several thousand years following the introduction of the microlithic industry, but that over the last 2,000 years increasing Aboriginal population has necessitated a diversification into a wider range of resources.

description: In this paper, we enhance the traditional confusion network system combination approach with an additional model trained by a neural network. This work is motivated by the fact that the commonly used binary system voting models only assign each input system a global weight which is responsible for the global impact of each input system on all translations. This prevents individual systems with low system weights from having influence on the system combination output, although in some situations this could be helpful. Further, words which have only been seen by one or few systems rarely have a chance of being present in the combined output. We train a local system voting model by a neural network which is based on the words themselves and the combinatorial occurrences of the different system outputs. This gives system combination the option to prefer other systems at different word positions even for the same sentence.

Attribute grammars: an executable specification for CSS layout
Creators: name: Buckley, Scott
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: The World Wide Web is a technology used daily by billions of people internationally. The core technologies that make up the Web are specified by the World Wide Web Consortium, and implemented independently by various organisations in the form of web browsers, which are tools to retrieve and view HTML/CSS documents. The task of retrieving, parsing, and rendering an HTML document is very important and very complex. The specification that defines how an HTML page should be rendered (CSS) is more than 150,000 words long. It is well known that all web browsers render HTML differently in subtle ways, and we argue that the size and non-deterministic nature of the specification contributes to this problem. This project demonstrates a new method of a) describing the CSS specification, and b) implementing a CSS-compliant HTML renderer, that employs dynamic attribute grammars to achieve both tasks. Attribute grammars assist in specification by describing the relation-ship between the Document Object Model and its visual representation deterministically, and greatly reduce the gap between specification and implementation by writing the specification in an executable format. Furthermore, we show informally that this executable specification is human-readable, which we argue is because attribute grammars are the natural language to describe CSS.

description: To evaluate the variability of multi-phase flow properties of porous media at the pore scale, it is necessary to acquire a number of representative samples of the void-solid structure. While modern x-ray computer tomography has made it possible to extract three-dimensional images of the pore space, assessment of the variability in the inherent material properties is often experimentally not feasible. We present a novel method to reconstruct the solid-void structure of porous media by applying a generative neural network that allows an implicit description of the probability distribution represented by three-dimensional image datasets. We show, by using an adversarial learning approach for neural networks, that this method of unsupervised learning is able to generate representative samples of porous media that honor their statistics. We successfully compare measures of pore morphology, such as the Euler characteristic, two-point statistics and directional single-phase permeability of synthetic realizations with the calculated properties of a bead pack, Berea sandstone, and Ketton limestone. Results show that GANs can be used to reconstruct high-resolution three-dimensional images of porous media at different scales that are representative of the morphology of the images used to train the neural network. The fully convolutional nature of the trained neural network allows the generation of large samples while maintaining computational efficiency. Compared to classical stochastic methods of image reconstruction, the implicit representation of the learned data distribution can be stored and reused to generate multiple realizations of the pore structure very rapidly.

description: ABSTRACT Objective: The aim of this scoping review is mapping the evidence about the different nurses’ roles and their scope of practice in caring for elderly people within primary health care. Introduction: The community care is currently the primary setting for the care of elderly patients due to the global change in healthcare services toward community care over the past few decades. The recent COVID-19 pandemic has made chronic care services provided at the patient's home even more in demand. The expansion of nursing roles can be important in increasing and promoting quality of care by providing support to chronic patients through on-site follow-up activities, thereby reducing hospitalization and readmissions. Despite the importance of the topic, a scoping review mapping the breadth of different nurses’ roles in caring for elderly people within primary health care has not been conducted yet. Inclusion criteria: This review will consider studies that describe the scope of practice of different PHC nurses in caring for elderly people and, their collaboration with other health professionals. Quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-method primary and secondary studies will be included. Opinion papers and policy documents will also be considered. Methods: This review will be conducted in accordance with the JBI methodology, mainly though the PCC mnemonic and the reporting guidelines for Scoping Review. The overarching question “What are the scope of practices of different nurses’ roles in caring for elderly people within PHC” will be used to guide the review process. Data sources will include comprehensive searches of electronic databases (MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL), grey literature, and reference scanning of relevant studies. Two independent reviewers will screen the titles, abstracts, and full texts of the selected studies. Data extraction will be performed using a tool developed by the researchers on the standardized JBI tool. Descriptive frequencies and thematic analysis will be included along with the tabulated results and will be used to present how the results relate to the objectives of this review. Keywords: nurse; nurses’ role; multidisciplinary team; primary health care, scoping review.

description: "The aim of this thesis is to explore Antonioni's artistic process and the ways in which his visual vocabulary has been inspired by particular paintings of Turner, Rothko and de Chirico. Although Antonioni expressed himself through the medium of cinema, and these three artists were painters, their philosophical, visual and symbolic languages are strikingly similar. It is the purpose of this study to explore the very close connections between Antonioni's filmmaking and the artworks of these three painters." -- abstract.

description: We study the problem of a four-dimensional brane lying in the five-dimensional degenerate Schwarzschild-de Sitter (Nariai) black hole, in five-dimensional $F(R)$-gravity. We show that there cannot exist the brane in the Nariai bulk space except the case that the brane tension vanishes. We demonstrate that the five-dimensional Nariai bulk is unstable in a large region of the parameter space. In particular, the Nariai bulk can have classical (anti-)evaporation instabilities. The bulk instability back-reacts on the four-dimensional brane, in case that the brane tension vanishes, and the unstable modes propagate in their world-volume.

description: The potential impact of future quantum networks hinges on high-quality quantum entanglement shared between network nodes. Unavoidable real-world imperfections necessitate means to improve remote entanglement by local quantum operations. Here we realize entanglement distillation on a quantum network primitive of distant electron-nuclear two-qubit nodes. We demonstrate the heralded generation of two copies of a remote entangled state through single-photon-mediated entangling of the electrons and robust storage in the nuclear spins. After applying local two-qubit gates, single-shot measurements herald the distillation of an entangled state with increased fidelity that is available for further use. In addition, this distillation protocol significantly speeds up entanglement generation compared to previous two-photon-mediated schemes. The key combination of generating, storing and processing entangled states demonstrated here opens the door to exploring and utilizing multi-particle entanglement on an extended quantum network.

description: Capturing and harvesting RF energy, using small antennas with an effective conversion of RF energy to DC energy with minimal losses, presents a significant research problem. The project addresses the opportunity to harvest RF energy from dedicated or ambient sources using a rectenna. The overall objective of this project is to successfully design, create and implement and effective rectenna system for low-cost, low-power operation at the 2.45GHz ISM band, the aim is to manufacture a prototype of an optimal rectenna design that is effective. The prototype is used to demonstrate the operating principle of the rectenna, its effectiveness and real world performance. This thesis presents two rectenna systems designed to harvest RF energy. Rectenna system 1 comprises of sybsystem 1, a single microstrip patch antenna, while rectenna system 2 comprises of subsystem 3, a microstrip patch antenna array. Both rectenna systems utilise subsystem 2, the two stage Cockcroft Walton rectifier and multiplier circuit. The rectenna systems and their related subsystems achieved exceptional effectiveness and real world performance with the ability to harvest a significant amount of RF power at 2.45GHz. As a result, the operating principle of the rectenna systems, their effectiveness and real world performance are demonstrated, harvesting enough energy to operate a selection of typical electronic devices such as a 2.1v green LED, digital clock timer and digital humidity sensor, up to a range of 3.5 meters.

description: Tributyltin (TBT), an organotin compound, is hazardous in aquatic ecosystems. However, the mechanisms underlying TBT-induced central nervous system (CNS) toxicity remain to be determined especially in freshwater aquatic vertebrates. The aim of present study was to investigate the effects of chronic exposure to TBT on brain functions in a freshwater teleost the adult wild-type zebrafish (Danio rerio). Fish were exposed to sublethal concentrations of TBT (10, 100 or 300 ng/L) for 6 weeks. The influence of long-term TBT exposure was assessed in the brain of zebrafish with antioxidant related indices including malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and total antioxidant capacity, neurological parameters such as activities of acetylcholinesterase, and monoamine oxidase as well as levels of nitric oxide, dopamine, 5-hydroxytryptamine. In addition indices related to sensitivity of toxic insult such as cytochrome P450 1 regulation and heat shock protein 70 were determined. The regulation of related genes involved in endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS), apoptosis and Nrf2 pathway were measured. Adverse physiological and biochemical responses were significantly enhanced in a concentration-dependent manner reflecting neurotoxicity attributed to TBT exposure. Our findings provide further insight into TBT-induced toxicity in wild-type zebrafish. and enhance our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying TBT-initiated CNS effects.

Withstanding heat waves: proteomic analysis of adaptive thermotolerance in Eucalyptus grandis seedlings

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Heat wave events have been implicated in an increasing number of large scale die-off events in eucalypt-dominated forest throughout Australia. Being sedentary, plants in part rely on the expression of a specific set of proteins for heat acclimation and survival. However, the specific patterns of protein expression that underlie variability in important ecological traits like thermotolerance are rarely investigated in native plant species. This study tested the capacity of six provenances of Eucalyptus grandis (Flooded Gum) arrayed along a strong temperature gradient to respond to experimental manipulations of heat shock. Recently sequenced, E. grandis is a dominant species in forests along the east coast of Australia and a key species in forestry plantings. A comparative proteomic approach was used to characterise types and abundances of proteins involved in the heat shock response between seedlings grown from different provenances. We focused on seedlings as they are most vulnerable to intense heat conditions at the soil surface and to have limited access to soil moisture due to shallow root systems. Synthesis: Seedlings from southern provenances that experience more frequent heat stress, demonstrated higher levels of acquired thermotolerance and may have greater adaptive capacity to cope with increased heat waves under climate change.

description: Propolis is a resinous product collected by honey bees from plant-derived materials, with high content of polyphenols associated to various bioactivities. In this study, a powerful separation and identification method of polyphenol compounds from Chinese propolis samples were investigated using off-line two-dimensional reversed-phase liquid chromatography (2D-RPLC/RPLC) in combination with Q-TOF-MS. A Click OEG and an XTerra C18 column were employed for the first and second dimensional separation, respectively. The identification efficacy of 2D-RPLC/RPLC and unidimensional LC (1D-LC) were compared, and 81 components involving 60 polyphenol compounds were characterized by the former method. In contrast, only 36 peaks were detected by the 1D-LC method. The proposed method was demonstrated to be more efficient for the existence or absence of target compounds identification, and that would provide a promising means for accurate determination and quality evaluation of Chinese propolis.

description: Electroluminescence from individual carbon nanotubes within split-gate devices is investigated. By characterizing the air-suspended nanotubes with photoluminescence spectroscopy, chirality is identified and electroluminescence peaks are assigned. We observe electroluminescence linewidth comparable to photoluminescence, indicating negligible heating and state-mixing effects. Split-gate and bias voltage dependences are consistent with emission from an electrostatically formed $pn$-junction.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

Realism, ontology, and latent variables

description: Drawing on scientific realism, recent psychometric literature presents a claim for ontology for latent variable analysis. The purpose of such presentation is to underlabourapurported causal relationship between psychological attributes and manifest outcomes, which is said to drive the use of these analyses in psychological research. This thesis examines the principles of this claim in three steps. Firstly, a meta-analysis of three approaches to philosophical realism is conducted with specific focus on causality and relations, clarifying the logical ground of the claim for a realist ontology for latent variables. The outcomes are used in conceptual analysis of the terms „ontology‟, „causality‟ and „latent variable‟, and the assumptions of scientific realism are tested against the principles of philosophical realism. The implications of factor indeterminacy and realist measurement theory for latent variable modelling as measurement theory are set clear. Finally, the conceptual analysis and meta-analysis are brought together to examine a suggestion of interchangeability between observed and latent variables. These three forms of analysis, logical, conceptual and empirical together form a critical inquiry that indicates minimal support for the claim for a realist ontology for the use of latent variable modelling in psychological research.

description: Vertical graphene nanosheets (VGNs) are the material of choice for next-generation electronic device applications. The growing demand for flexible devices in electronic industry brings in restriction on growth temperature of the material of interest. However, VGNs with better structural quality is usually achieved at high growth temperatures. The difficulty associated with the direct growth on flexible substrates can overcome by adopting an effective strategy of transferring the well grown VGNs onto arbitrary flexible substrates through soft chemistry route. Hence, we demonstrated a simple, inexpensive and scalable technique for the transfer of VGNs onto arbitrary substrates without disrupting its morphology and structural properties. After transfer, the morphology, chemical structure and electronic properties are analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy and four probe resistive methods, respectively. Associated characterization investigation indicates the retention of morphological, structural and electrical properties of transferred VGNs compared to as-grown one. Furthermore the storage capacity of the VGNs transferred onto flexible substrates is also examined. A very lower sheet resistance of 0.67 kOhm/sq. and excellent supercapacitance of 158 micro-Farrad/cm2 with 91.4% retention after 2000 cycles confirms the great prospective of this damage-free transfer approach of VGNs for flexible nanoelectronic device applications

A Radio Emission Analysis of Classical Nova V351 Pup (1991)

description: Previously, Nova Puppis 1991 (V351 Pup) was measured to host one of the most massive ejections claimed in the literature. Multi-frequency radio detections from one epoch were published for this nova in the 1990's, and yet, the remaining data collected by the Very Large Array (VLA) have remained unpublished. In this paper, we analyze the remaining unpublished data sets for V351 Pup at frequencies of 4.9, 8.4, 14.9, and 22.5 GHz. We fit the resulting light curve to a model of expanding thermal ejecta, under the assumption that the radio emission is dominated by free-free radiation and accounting for high levels of clumping in the ejecta. Images of V351 Pup in both the radio (from the VLA) and H$α$+[N II] (from HST) exhibit no aspherical structure, strengthening our assumption of spherical symmetry. From expansion parallax methods, we estimate the distance to V351 Pup to be $5.0 \pm 1.5$ kpc. Our light curve fit yields a value of $log_{10}(M_{ej})={-5.2} \pm {0.7}$ M$_{\odot}$ for the ejecta mass, implying that V351 Pup is on the low end of expectations for ejecta mass from classical novae. A comparison between our derived ejecta mass and theoretical models gives evidence for a very massive (1.25 M$_{\odot}$) white dwarf, which is consistent with spectroscopic evidence for an oxygen-neon white dwarf.
