description: Less than two years after the discovery of high temperature superconductivity in oxypnictide LaFeAs(O,F) several families of superconductors based on Fe layers (1111, 122, 11, 111) are available. They share several characteristics with cuprate superconductors that compromise easy applications, such as the layered structure, the small coherence length, and unconventional pairing, On the other hand the Fe-based superconductors have metallic parent compounds, and their electronic anisotropy is generally smaller and does not strongly depend on the level of doping, the supposed order parameter symmetry is s wave, thus in principle not so detrimental to current transmission across grain boundaries. From the application point of view, the main efforts are still devoted to investigate the superconducting properties, to distinguish intrinsic from extrinsic behaviours and to compare the different families in order to identify which one is the fittest for the quest for better and more practical superconductors. The 1111 family shows the highest Tc, huge but also the most anisotropic upper critical field and in-field, fan-shaped resistive transitions reminiscent of those of cuprates, while the 122 family is much less anisotropic with sharper resistive transitions as in low temperature superconductors, but with about half the Tc of the 1111 compounds. An overview of the main superconducting properties relevant to applications will be presented. Upper critical field, electronic anisotropy parameter, intragranular and intergranular critical current density will be discussed and compared, where possible, across the Fe-based superconductor families.
Potts model with $q=4,6,$ and 8 states on Voronoi-Delaunay random lattice

description: Through Monte Carlo simulations we study two-dimensional Potts models with $q=4, 6$ and 8 states on Voronoi-Delaunay random lattice. In this study, we assume that the coupling factor $J$ varies with the distance $r$ between the first neighbors as $J(r)\propto e^{-a r}$, with $a \geq 0$ . The disordered system is simulated applying the singler-cluster Monte Carlo update algorithm and reweigting technique. In this model both second-order and first-order phase transition are present depending of $q$ values and $a$ parameter. The critical exponents ratio $β/ν$, $γ/ν$, and $1/ν$ were calculated for case where the second-order phase transition are present. In the Potts model with $q=8$ we also studied the distribution of clusters sizes.

The Higgs sector of supersymmetric theories and the implications for high-energy colliders

description: One of the main motivations for low energy supersymmetric theories is their ability to address the hierarchy and naturalness problems in the Higgs sector of the Standard Model. In these theories, at least two doublets of scalar fields are required to break the electroweak symmetry and to generate the masses of the elementary particles, resulting in a rather rich Higgs spectrum. The search for the Higgs bosons of Supersymmetry and the determination of their basic properties is one of the major goals of high--energy colliders and, in particular, the LHC which will soon start operation. We review the salient features of the Higgs sector of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model and of some of its extensions and summarize the prospects for probing them at the LHC and at the future ILC.

Persistent entanglement in two coupled SQUID rings in the quantum to classical transition - A quantum jumps approach
Creators: name: Everitt, M. J.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We explore the quantum-classical crossover of two coupled, identical, superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) rings. The motivation for this work is based on a series of recent papers. In ~[1] we showed that the entanglement characteristics of chaotic and periodic (entrained) solutions of the Duffing oscillator differed significantly and that in the classical limit entanglement was preserved only in the chaotic-like solutions. However, Duffing oscillators are a highly idealised toy system. Motivated by a wish to explore more experimentally realisable systems we extended our work in [2,3] to an analysis of SQUID rings. In [3] we showed that the two systems share a common feature. That is, when the SQUID ring's trajectories appear to follow (semi) classical orbits entanglement persists. Our analysis in[3] was restricted to the quantum state diffusion unravelling of the master equation - representing unit efficiency heterodyne detection (or ambi-quadrature homodyne detection). Here we show that very similar behaviour occurs using the quantum jumps unravelling of the master equation. Quantum jumps represents a discontinuous photon counting measurement process. Hence, the results presented here imply that such persistent entanglement is independent of measurement process and that our results may well be quite general in nature.

description: The Kepler mission's primary goal is the detection and characterization of Earth-like planets by observing continuously a region of sky for a nominal period of three-and-a-half years. Over 100,000 stars will be monitored, with a small subset of these having a cadence of 1 minute, making asteroseismic studies for many stars possible. The subset of targets will consist of mainly solar-type and planet-hosting stars, and these will be observed for a minimum period of 1 month and a maximum depending on the scientific yield of the individual target. Many oscillation frequencies will be detected in these data, and these will be used to constrain the star's fundamental parameters. I investigate the effect that an increase in a) the length of observation and b) the signal quality, has on the final determination of some stellar global parameters, such as the radius and the age.

description: There has been much recent interest in quantum optical interferometry for applications to metrology, sub-wavelength imaging, and remote sensing, such as in quantum laser radar (LADAR). For quantum LADAR, atmospheric absorption rapidly degrades any quantum state of light, so that for high-photon loss the optimal strategy is to transmit coherent states of light, which suffer no worse loss than the Beer law for classical optical attenuation, and which provides sensitivity at the shot-noise limit. This approach leaves open the question -- what is the optimal detection scheme for such states in order to provide the best possible resolution? We show that coherent light coupled with photon number resolving detectors can provide a super-resolution much below the Rayleigh diffraction limit, with sensitivity no worse than shot-noise in terms of the detected photon power.

description: Modeling the conditions for the emergence of extremism is a very important problem, with clear applications for describing the interaction among individuals. Traditional models either are not suited for the task, as in the case of discrete models, or, like Bounded Confidence models, are built with rules that make opinions tend to a common ground between agents or not change at all. Continuous Opinions and Discrete Actions (CODA) model allowed us to observe the emergence of extremist agents, even when every agent was initially a moderate, due to local influence effects. In this paper, the problem of emergence of extremism will be addressed by introducing a middle discrete option in the CODA model, making it similar to a Potts model. Different scenarios for the third option will be discussed: when it is equivalent to withholding judgment, when it is a real third option and when it is a real, middle option. The effects on the opinions will be studied and its effects on extremism discussed. Withholding judgment seems to have an unexpected effect, causing the diminishing of moderate opinions in the long run. For a central third opinion, we find that, under specific conditions, this new choice can act as a buffer between the extreme choices.

The relationship between government and non government sectors: the case of Tasmania
Creators: name: Webber, CJ
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: The role of Government in the 21st century has been dynamic and is rapidly changing beyond conventional understandings of public administration. Widespread reform to public administration across most developed countries has occurred, with Australia no exception. Whilst changes driven under 'new public management' (NPM) are well covered within public administration literature its transformation has not been limited to these restructuring efforts. This thesis examines the mechanisms available for actors and non-government organisations to participate in the policy process. In doings so it considers whether bureaucratic traditions are fundamentally resistant to consultative changes. Despite the span of literature on the increasing use of consultation in policy making, there is limited applied investigation of consultative changes. This thesis bridges the gap between theoretical understandings of consultation and its practice. In doing so it provides critical scrutiny of the challenges and barriers facing government and non-government sectors. Tasmania's Health and Community Sector provides an illuminating example of the challenges facing government and non-government organisations. This sector has undergone significant changes in the business of policy -making with several attempts made by the State to move towards partnership style arrangements. In doing so policy makers in both government and non-government sectors have faced significant challenges as they move into a new realm of policy making, one where each sector is increasingly reliant on working with the other. Overwhelmingly this thesis illustrates significant challenges and barriers faced in the new policy paradigm. Whilst consultation has indeed brought forward higher levels of trust and reciprocity in the policy process, there remain significant structural barriers to an effective working relationship. Key issues include organisational memory and long term policy planning. The case of Tasmania illustrates that consultation appears to be embraced in spirit if not in practice. These findings provide significant lessons to policy making; lessons not simply confined to Tasmania. With governance increasingly perceived as a 'balancing act' between government and community sectors, the findings of this dissertation are noteworthy. This thesis highlights challenges facing consultation and collaboration between these two sectors.
The scholastic and experimental methods in the works of B. G. Feijoo
Creators: name: Ayerbe, J. I.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The conflict between the scholastic and experimental methods in the works of Feijoo is essentially the conflict between traditional and contemporary thought. In this study, therefore, both methods are interpreted in a very wide sense. The scholastic method represents the traditional studies of grammar, rhetoric and logic. The experimental method represents the empirical attitude and the innovations in mathematics that begin in western Europe during the seventeenth century. The first chapter of this study defines the conflict between tradition and innovation as it appears in Feijoo's first published work, Apologia del Scepticismo Medico. The second chapter examines the traditional aspects of Feijoo's thought as they manifest themselves in his use of scholastic logic. The third chapter considers Feijoo’s debt to the innovations of Descartes. The fourth chapter examines his approach to traditional physics, modern physics and the experimental method. The final chapter shows how Feijoo's attitude to ancient and modern thought appears in his aesthetic theories.

description: To study the possible origin of the huge helium enrichment attributed to the stars on the blue main sequence of Omega Centauri, we make use of a chemical evolution model that has proven able to reproduce other major observed properties of the cluster, namely, its stellar metallicity distribution function, age-metallicity relation and trends of several abundance ratios with metallicity. In this framework, the key condition to satisfy all the available observational constraints is that a galactic-scale outflow develops in a much more massive parent system, as a consequence of multiple supernova explosions in a shallow potential well. This galactic wind must carry out preferentially the metals produced by explosive nucleosynthesis in supernovae, whereas elements restored to the interstellar medium through low-energy stellar winds by both asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars and massive stars must be mostly retained. Assuming that helium is ejected through slow winds by both AGB stars and fast rotating massive stars (FRMSs), the interstellar medium of Omega Centauri's parent galaxy gets naturally enriched in helium in the course of its evolution.

description: In this study, we investigated the volumetric properties of water/sodium 1,4-bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate(AOT)/ethoxylated-2,5,8,11-tetramethyl-6-dodecyne-5,8-diol(Dynol-604)/isooctane mixed microemulsions by density measurement at T = 303.15 K. It was observed that the volumetric interaction between the microemulsion droplets decreased with the increase of the content of Dynol-604 due to the reduction of electrostatic repulsion between the AOT head groups. The volumetric properties were analyzed by a proposed thermodynamic model to obtain the critical microemulsion concentrations and the maximum molar ratios ω
 d,max of water to surfactants, which are the stable boundaries of the microemulsion droplets to accommodate the maximal content of water in their cores. It was found that ω
 d,max increased from 62 to 77 as the mole fraction of Dynol-604 in mixed surfactants varied from 0 to 0.5. This result is further confirmed by conductivity measurements.

Violation of non-interacting $\cal V$-representability of the exact solutions of the Schrödinger equation for a two-electron quantum dot in a homogeneous magnetic field

description: We have shown by using the exact solutions for the two-electron system in a parabolic confinement and a homogeneous magnetic field [ M.Taut, J Phys.A{\bf 27}, 1045 (1994) ] that both exact densities (charge- and the paramagnetic current density) can be non-interacting $\cal V$-representable (NIVR) only in a few special cases, or equivalently, that an exact Kohn-Sham (KS) system does not always exist. All those states at non-zero $B$ can be NIVR, which are continuously connected to the singlet or triplet ground states at B=0. In more detail, for singlets (total orbital angular momentum $M_L$ is even) both densities can be NIVR if the vorticity of the exact solution vanishes. For $M_L=0$ this is trivially guaranteed because the paramagnetic current density vanishes. The vorticity based on the exact solutions for the higher $|M_L|$ does not vanish, in particular for small r. In the limit $r \to 0$ this can even be shown analytically. For triplets ($M_L$ is odd) and if we assume circular symmetry for the KS system (the same symmetry as the real system) then only the exact states with $|M_L|= 1$ can be NIVR with KS states having angular momenta $m_1=0$ and $|m_2|=1$. Without specification of the symmetry of the KS system the condition for NIVR is that the small-r-exponents of the KS states are 0 and 1.

description: The article is devoted to issues of improving the quality of education when studying a chemistry course at a technical university. The results have shown that increasing the amount of active independent work of students, as a component of the system-activity approach, is effective for creating additional motivation for learning in students, developing cognitive activity and forming strong knowledge. This approach helps students develop the ability to set goals effectively and find solutions to problems through systematization of knowledge and multilateral analysis.

We denote by P(A, B), -I ‚Äöv¢¬ß B < A ‚Äöv¢¬ß I, the class of functions p(z) = l+p l z+... regular in lz1 < I and such that p(z)=[1+Aw(z)]/[1+Bw(z)]for some w(z) ˜í¬µ B. This thesis is concerned with establishing bounds on z1=r<1 for functionals of the form Re{ap(z) + Up l (z)/p(z)} , a,˜í‚â§ real , where p(z) varies in P(A, B) or one of the following subclasses: Pk (A, B) = {p(z) = 1 +Pkzk+P2kz2k+‚ÄövÑvÆ ˜í¬µ P(A, B), k = 1,2,3,...} Pb (A, B) = {P(z) ˜í¬µ P(A2 B) ; P ' (0) = b(A-B) , 0 ‚Äöv¢¬ß b ‚Äöv¢¬ß 1} , P [a,b] = {P(z) ˜í¬µ P = P(1,-1) p(a)=b , 0 < a < I , b > 0} The bounds obtained are used to derive the distortion theorems, the covering theorems and the radii of convexity for the classes of regular or meromorphic starlike functions associated with P(A, B) or the above-mentioned subclasses. Furthermore, we obtain bounds for the functional Re{p(z)a-azp 1 (z)/p(z)}, 0 < a ‚Äöv¢¬ß 1 , p(z) E p , and establish the above theorems for the class of meromorphic strongly starlike functions of order a. The problem of minimising the functional Re{zp' (z)/p(z)} over P(A, B) is also examined for the case in which we may have A ‚Äöv¢‚Ä¢ I . This situation arises from the investigation of the starlikeness of functions f(z) normalised, regular in Iz| < I and satisfying |f(z)/[Af(z)+(1-A)g(z)]-y|

description: Self-doping in graphene has been studied by examining single-layer epitaxially grown graphene samples with differing characteristic lateral terrace widths. Low energy electron microscopy was used to gain real-space information about the graphene surface morphology, which was compared with data obtained by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to study the effect of the monolayer graphene terrace width on the low energy dispersions. By altering the graphene terrace width, we report significant changes in the electronic structure and quasiparticle relaxation time of the material, in addition to a terrace width-dependent doping effect.

Microbial oxidation of n-alkane hydrocarbons
Creators: name: Liu, Dickson Lee Shen
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: A four-part investigation was described in which first, the use of thiolignin and lignosulfonate to remove a factor involved in growth limitation in hydrocarbon fermentation was investigated; secondly, the performance of the Cyelone-fermenter in hydrocarbon fermentation was evaluated; thirdly, continuous hydrocarbon fermentation with reference to hydrocarbon, nitrogen, thiolignin and dilution rate was studied; and fourthly, the mechanism of n-decane oxidation was studied manometrically and gas chromatographically. The addition of polymerized lignosulfonate and thiolignin into the hydrocarbon fermentation media greatly, increased the fermentation rate and the yield of biomass. Lignin itself did not appear to be decomposed during the fermentation. Resting cell studies of Pseudomonas desmolytica S(11) indicated that the oxygen consumption increased with the decreasing n-alkane carbon number and did not parallel the production of total biomass. The greatest biomass occurred using n-undecane and decreased sharply with lower and higher n-alkanes. The individual n-alkanes in kerosene were not degraded uniformly, the lower ones were used preferentially. Thiolignin not only increased the rate of utilization of these lower n-alkanes but also extended microbial acceptability to the higher n-alkanes. Gas chromatographic analyses revealed that five monocarboxylic fatty acids corresponding to C(8), C(9), C(10, C(11), and C(12) were present in the fermentation fluid. The Cyclone-fermenter was found to be very suitable for hydrocarbon fermentation. The hydrocarbon, kerosene, was fermented with a pure bacterial culture in a continuous process for 250 hours without any noticeable change in the culture behavior. Moreover, the addition of various culture medium ingredients could be optimized to produce maximum cell yield or maximum acid production. Manometric and gas chromatographic studies revealed that cell-free extracts of 2(11) oxidized n-decane to n-decanol and n-decanoic acid, whereas the partially purified hydrocarbon-oxidizing enzyme only oxidized n-decane to decanol. The n-decane-oxidizing enzyme could be precipitated by 30% (NH4)2 SO4 and had a narrow optimal pH around 7.0. The enzyme also required a dialyzed, heat stable 60% (NH4)2 SO4 supernatant fraction and NAD for maximum enzyme activity. Ferrous, manganous and calcium ions did not stimulate the enzyme activity. It seemed that the enzymatic attack on n-decane occurred primarily at the terminal carbon atom and this was manifested by the fact that n-decanol, n-decanal and n-decanoic acid supported good growth for S(11).
Developments in plane and concave gratings: theory and experiment
Creators: name: Brown, Barbara Joan
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: The developments in grating performance described in this thesis fall naturally into two parts according to whether the grating blank is plane or concave. For plane diffraction gratings, this study utilizes both experimental work and rigorous electromagnetic theories to achieve improved grating and instrument performance. The section concerned with concave gratings is entirely theoretical, drawing on the manipulation of geometric theories to design high quality gratings. Three types of plane diffraction grating grooves currently generated by holographic techniques are investigated. A discussion of methods for accurately measuring the groove profile is presented with particular reference to quasi-sinusoidal groove profiles. The spectral performance of blazed holographic gratings is shown numerically to be comparable to that of triangular groove gratings. Consideration is then given to simple optical arrangements which permit Fourier synthesis of complex distributions and groove profiles. Experimental investigations of the behaviour of resonance anomalies exhibited by gratings having surface layers of discontinuous conductivity are presented. It is demonstrated that a coating consisting of a dielectric overlaid with a metal of high conductivity drastically reduces energy absorption. A theoretical search to determine the optimum groove modulation of both blazed and sinusoidal plane reflection gratings is presented. This will assist with the development of high-gain dye lasers utilizing gratings at grazing incidence. Aberration coefficients derived using Fermat's principle are used for an examination of aberration-correction for Rowland circle spectrographs. Attention is focussed on the case where the mounting and recording points lie on the Rowland circle. Correction at two wavelengths of primary astigmatism or primary coma under this constraint is demonstrated. Alternatively, primary astigmatism and primary coma can be simultaneously corrected over a restricted wavelength range. Some practical implications are discussed. The geometric theory of concave gratings is extended to accommodate higher order aberration terms. The magnitude of the individual terms of the light path function, which describes image formation by an aberration-corrected grating, is investigated. Similarly, the behaviour of the image height under these restraints is studied for various values of the relative aperture. Finally, aberration minimization techniques are employed in the design of a uni-axial, double concave grating monochromator. The performance of this instrument is evaluated for ruled and holographic gratings.
On the nature of the Cygnus X-2 like Z-track sources

description: Based on the results of applying the extended ADC emission model for low mass X-ray binaries to three Z-track sources: GX340+0, GX5-1 and CygX-2, we propose an explanation of the CygnusX-2 like Z-track sources. The Normal Branch is dominated by the increasing radiation pressure of the neutron star caused by a mass accretion rate that increases between the soft apex and the hard apex. The radiation pressure continues to increase on the Horizontal Branch becoming several times super-Eddington. We suggest that this disrupts the inner accretion disk and that part of the accretion flow is diverted vertically forming jets which are detected by their radio emission on this part of the Z-track. We thus propose that high radiation pressure is the necessary condition for the launching of jets. On the Flaring Branch there is a large increase in the neutron star blackbody luminosity at constant mass accretion rate indicating an additional energy source on the neutron star. We find that there is good agreement between the mass accretion rate per unit emitting area of the neutron star mdot at the onset of flaring and the theoretical critical value at which burning becomes unstable. We thus propose that flaring in the CygnusX-2 like sources consists of unstable nuclear burning. Correlation of measurements of kilohertz QPO frequencies in all three sources with spectral fitting results leads to the proposal that the upper kHz QPO is an oscillation always taking place at the inner accretion disk edge, the radius of which increases due to disruption of the disk by the high radiation pressure of the neutron star.

Gauge dependence of renormalization constants
Creators: name: Beven, Terence Patrick
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: This thesis presents a complete, self-contained list of the renormalization constants Z in unified gauge models to second order in the gauge coupling constant g for four gauge choices. These are the Lorentz covariant (parameter c) gauges, the axial and Coulomb gauges, and a general non-covariant gauge (parameter a2/b2). Specific details of the calculation of the one-loop infinities are provided. It is thus possible to explicitly verify the Ward-Slavnov-Taylor identities to this order. Comparisons are made which suggest parallelisms between the non-covariant gauges and certain covariant gauges. For instance, the infinities in the axial gauge are exactly what one would find in the Lorentz gauge with c = -3. Similarly, less clear correspondences are found between the Coulomb and Fermi (c = 1) gauges, and between a general non-covariant gauge with a2/b2 = -3 and the Landau (c = 0) gauge. Finally, we are able to present for every Lorentz gauge an 'equivalent' non-covariant gauge, and viceversa.
Testing the potential and limitations of seismic data

description: I describe the advantage of using singular value decomposition as a diagnostic tool for exploring the potential and limitations of seismic data. Using stellar models coupled with the expected errors in seismic and complementary data we can predict the precision in the stellar parameters. This in turn allows us to quantify if and to what extent we can distinguish between various descriptions of the interior physical processes. This method can be applied to a wide range of astrophysical problems, and here I present one such example which shows that the convective core overshoot parameter can be constrained with one identified mode if the pulsating component is in an eclipsing binary system.

description: A four field television star acquisition and guiding system incorporating image intensification has been designed, constructed and evaluated. The system which includes a 152mm objective, a three stage cascaded electrostatic image intensifier, a newvicon target low light level television camera is mounted on the 1.04 metre reflecting telescope of the Canopus Hill Observatory near Hobart. An extensive testing programme on fields of 3¬¨Œ©, 9, 25 and 60 arc min has yielded the excellent results of a limiting sensitivity of 13 vï¬¥ .7 and a resolution in the 3¬¨Œ© arc min. field of 1.4 arc sec. Some proposals are discussed to push these limits even further.

description: We consider the influence of extra dimensions on the force in Casimir pistons. Suitable analytical expressions are provided for the Casimir force in the range where the plate distance is small, and that where it is large, compared to the size of the extra dimensions. We show that the Casimir force tends to move the center plate toward the closer wall; this result is true independently of the cross-section of the piston and the geometry or topology of the additional Kaluza--Klein dimensions. The statement also remains true at finite temperature. In the limit where one wall of the piston is moved to infinity, the result for parallel plates is recovered. If only one chamber is considered, a criterion for the occurrence of Lukosz-type repulsion, as opposed to the occurrence of renormalization ambiguities, is given; we comment on why no repulsion has been noted in some previous cosmological calculations that consider only two plates.

High-Energy Neutrino Signatures of Dark Matter Decaying into Leptons

description: Decaying dark matter has previously been proposed as a possible explanation for the excess high energy cosmic ray electrons and positrons seen by PAMELA and the Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope (FGST). To accommodate these signals however, the decays must be predominantly leptonic, to muons or taus, and therefore produce neutrinos, potentially detectable with the IceCube neutrino observatory. We find that, with five years of data, IceCube (supplemented by DeepCore) will be able to significantly constrain the relevant parameter space of decaying dark matter, and may even be capable of discovering dark matter decaying in the halo of the Milky Way.

Are antitrust authorities equipped for the assessment of environmental effects that do not affect consumers in the market? And, if not, could they still have a significant role, without distorting their mission and their independence? This brief paper tries to provide some tentative answers to these challenging questions.
