description: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease associated with the loss of both upper and lower motor neurons in the motor cortex, brain stem and spinal cord. The pathogenic mechanisms underlying ALS remaln largely unknown. The pathological hallmark of ALS is the presence of cytoplasmic inclusions containing misfolded proteins in degenerating motor neurons. These inclusions are present regardless of the site of symptom onset. age or gender of the patient. Moreover, these inclusions are present in both sporadic and familial forms of ALS. Misfolded protein accumulation triggers stress in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), inducing the unfolded protein response (UPR), and ER stress is now a well described feature of ALS. The UPR aims to restore proteostasis, but if unresolved triggers apoptosis. The UPR is also linked to autophagy, a self- degradative process that could clear protein aggregates. However. the presence of protein Inclusions suggests that both UPR and autophagy could be dysfunctional in ALS. One of the genes most recently identified In ALS encoded, TBK-1, a kinase involved in different forms of selective autophagy including mitophagy and xenophagy. Interestingly, TBK-1 phosphorylates optienurin an autophagy adaptor protein that is also linked genetically to ALS. In this project the effect of ALS-causing mutations in TBK1 on ER-stress, autophagy and the association between optienurin and TBK-1 autophagy were examined. Using site directed mutagenesis kinase and substrate binding deficient ALS·mutant TBK·1 overexpresslng constructs were generated and the effect of expression of the mutants was examined. Preliminary results showed that expresslon of kinase deficient mutants decreased expression of CHOP, a pro-apoptotic transcription factor, normally induced during ER-stress. This suggests that the kinase activity ofTBK-1 is associated with CHOP independent of ALS. Furthermore. a slight but significantly decrease In LC3-11 levels was detected upon ALS·mutant TBK-1 overexpresslon, suggesting AlS-mutants inhibit autophagy. Additionally, ALS-mutant optineurin failed to recruit endogenous TBK-1 to autophagosomes In NSC-34 cells. This thesis therefore provides novel insight into cellular pathways perturbed in ALS· associated mutants of TBK·1.

description: The ferromagnetic semiconductor Ba2NiOsO6 (Tmag ~100 K) was synthesized at 6 GPa and 1500 °C. It crystallizes into a double perovskite structure [Fm-3m; a = 8.0428(1) Å], where the Ni2+ and Os6+ ions are perfectly ordered at the perovskite B-site. We show that the spin-orbit coupling of Os6+ plays an essential role in opening the charge gap. The magnetic state was investigated by density functional theory calculations and powder neutron diffraction. The latter revealed a collinear ferromagnetic order in a >21 kOe magnetic field at 5 K. The ferromagnetic gapped state is fundamentally different from that of known dilute magnetic semiconductors such as (Ga,Mn)As and (Cd,Mn)Te (Tmag < 180 K), the spin-gapless semiconductor Mn2CoAl (Tmag ~720 K), and the ferromagnetic insulators EuO (Tmag ~70 K) and Bi3Cr3O11 (Tmag ~220 K). It is also qualitatively different from known ferrimagnetic insulator/semiconductors, which are characterized by an antiparallel spin arrangement. Our finding of the ferromagnetic semiconductivity of Ba2NiOsO6 should increase interest in the platinum group oxides, because this new class of materials should be useful in the development of spintronic, quantum magnetic, and related devices.

Non-governmental organisations and environmental governance in Russia
Creators: name: Sofronova, Ekaterina
Publisher: name: Macquarie University

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: This thesis examines the role of Non-Government Organisations (NGOs) in environmental governance in Russia. Environmental problems in Russia emerged as results of the rapid industrial development and over-exploitation of the natural resources. Today, environmental problems remain a persistent issue in Russia as the current Government has prioritised economic development of the country over environmental values. As a result, Environmental Non-Governmental Organisations (ENGOs) have accordingly begun to respond to the Russian Government’s environmental policies. While the growing roles of ENGOs in environmental governance have been explored in Western democracies, little attention has been paid to these developments in Russia. A key issue for the new roles of ENGOs is their agency - the capacities of ENGOs to produce environmental outcomes and respond to changes in governance in Russia. This thesis asks the question: do ENGOs have agency in environmental governance in Russia and what are the conditions for their agency? This study aims to broaden our understanding of the roles of ENGOs in environmental governance beyond Western democracies’ political domains. To achieve these aims, the thesis studies conditions and constraints for ENGOs effective, legitimate and authoritative participation in Russian environmental governance. This study draws on research interviews, reports and relevant literature. It examines the historical development of ENGOs in Russia, evaluates Russian laws regulating NGOs and compares these laws with those of other countries, explores changes in ENGO strategies and identifies implications of these changes for theory and the roles of ENGOs in governance. The findings reveal that although ENGOs have expanded their roles in Russian environmental governance, they are targets of strong governmental control and their public support is low. This conclusion leads the thesis to advance six principles that would help to enhance ENGO agency in Russia. The thesis also identifies two key contributions to the underexamined theoretical issue of ENGO agency, namely, what does agency mean in different contexts and what does agency beyond the state mean for understanding the state’s role? The findings demonstrated that the agency of ENGOs varies depending on the area of environmental governance, historical periods and political, legal and economic contexts, which can limit or enhance the agency of ENGOs. This thesis also finds that as ENGOs have achieved limited agency, there has been a related reconfiguration in the role of the Russian state. However, such reconfiguration has not meant a complete change of traditional state roles and, in many ways, appears conditional and tokenistic in the Russian context.

Speculative bubble detection in Australian housing markets
Creators: name: Rahman, Md Arafat
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Housing prices have risen significantly in all Australian capital cities over the past 30 years. Strong house price growth has led to the widespread belief that speculative bubbles exist in Australian housing markets. Whilst the issue of bubbles has been discussed in Australian housing market studies for some time, a robust investigation into the existence of speculative bubbles has not been given the same level of consideration. This paper investigates whether there is any evidence of speculative bubbles in the Australian national and the eight capital city housing markets during the period 1999 to 2017. We apply the bubble detection method proposed by Shi (2017), which controls for the impact of a large set of macroeconomic factors. The results are compared with those from the bubble detection method of Phillips et al. (2015a,b, PSY). The PSY real-time detection method controls for the impact of rent. Both approaches identify a significant speculative bubble during period 2003:Q2-2005:Q4 in most of the Australia's capital cities. While the method of PSY reveals significant evidences of speculation over the 2014-2017 period, the new method finds no evidence of speculation in all capital cities except Canberra since mid-2005. By taking into consideration the impact of macroeconomic factors (such as mortgage interest rate, disposable income, employment, population, and housing supply growth) on house prices, this study provides a better control for housing market fundamentals, which leads to a more precise detection of speculative bubbles. The outcomes of the study have important policy implications by aiding the control of speculative bubbles in house prices through smoother adjustments using housing market fundamentals.

description: We investigate the limiting factors in the standard implementation of the Ca magneto-optical trap. We find that intercombination transitions from the 4s5p 1P1 state used to repump electronic population from the 3d4s 1D2 state severely reduce the trap lifetime. We explore seven alternative repumping schemes theoretically and investigate five of them experimentally. We find all five of these schemes yield a significant increase in trap lifetime and consequently improve the number of atoms and peak atom density by as much as ~20x and ~6x, respectively. One of these transitions, at 453 nm, is shown to approach the fundamental limit for a Ca magneto-optical trap with repumping only from the 3d4s 1D2 state, yielding a trap lifetime of ~5 s.

description: We study the sensitivity of directed complex networks to the addition and pruning of edges and vertices and introduce the susceptibility, which quantifies this sensitivity. We show that topologically different parts of a directed network have different sensitivity to the addition and pruning of edges and vertices and, therefore, they are characterized by different susceptibilities. These susceptibilities diverge at the critical point of the directed percolation transition, signaling the appearance (or disappearance) of the giant strongly connected component in the infinite size limit. We demonstrate this behavior in randomly damaged real and synthetic directed complex networks, such as the World Wide Web, Twitter, the \emph{Caenorhabditis elegans} neural network, directed Erdős-Rényi graphs, and others. We reveal a non-monotonous dependence of the sensitivity to random pruning of edges or vertices in the case of \emph{Caenorhabditis elegans} and Twitter that manifests specific structural peculiarities of these networks. We propose the measurements of the susceptibilities during the addition or pruning of edges and vertices as a new method for studying structural peculiarities of directed networks.

Questions and disjunction in child language

Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022

description: "Two major theories stemming from nature vs. nurture debates are available in recent research of child language acquisition. This thesis is aimed at providing some empirical evidence that contributes to the ongoing debate between the two competing models of language acquisition, by investigating children's comprehension and production of questions and those containing disjunction words. The thesis consists of three sets of studies. Chapter 2 presents the cross-linguistic studies investigating children's comprehension of yes/no questions containing disjunction (i.e., Did John drink coffee or tea?) in Japanese and Mandarin Chinese. It is argued that the findings from this study are best characterised by the continuity hypothesis offered by nativist models of language acquisition (Crain & Pietroski, 2001, 2002). The second set of studies presented in Chapter 3 investigates children's scope interpretation of negation and disjunction in yes/no questions (i.e., Did John not drink coffee or tea?) in Mandarin Chinese. Working within the Parameter-setting framework (Chomsky, 1981), it is proposed that children's interpretation of these questions is determined by the setting of a focus parameter associated with disjunction words. In Chapter 4, we report cross-linguistic similarities in children's production of questions. By analysing three longitudinal child speech corpora, we found that some Japanese-speaking children go through the stage in which question particle ka or no appear in yes/no questions, but the same question particles do not appear in wh-questions. This stage is analysed to be the same developmental stage in which English-speaking children invert an auxiliary or modal verb in yes/no questions, but not in wh-questions (e.g., Klima & Bellugi, 1966). The closing chapter (Chapter 5) summarises the three sets of the studies, and discuss some issues left open from the previous chapters." -- Abstract.
The Foreign Investment Review Board and the globalised environment

description: Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) can provide nations with capital to achieve higher economic growth and improve their competitive position within the global environment. FDI regulation at a state level, while necessary due to the instability that can arise from unregulated flows of large amounts of capital, will not be effective if it ignores the globalised environment. This paper considers this issue in respect to the Foreign Investment Review Board (FIRB). It concludes that the FIRB is not an effective regulator as it has failed to adapt to the needs of rational foreign investors in the global environment.

description: e-Science has been greatly enhanced from the developing capability and usability of cyberinfrastructure. This chapter explains how scientific workflow systems can facilitate e-Science discovery in Grid environments by providing features including scientific process automation, resource consolidation, parallelism, provenance tracking, fault tolerance, and workflow reuse. We first overview the core services to support e-Science discovery. To demonstrate how these services can be seamlessly assembled, an open source scientific workflow system, called Kepler, is integrated into the University of California Grid. This architecture is being applied to a computational enzyme design process, which is a formidable and collaborative problem in computational chemistry that challenges our knowledge of protein chemistry. Our implementation and experiments validate how the Kepler workflow system can make the scientific computation process automated, pipelined, efficient, extensible, stable, and easy-to-use.

The resulting observational library provides a comprehensive view of the physical, temporal and statistical properties of the SMC pulsar population across the luminosity range of $L_X= 10^{31.2}$--$10^{38}$~erg~s$^{-1}$. From a sample of 67 pulsars we report $\sim$1654 individual pulsar detections, yielding $\sim$1260 pulse period measurements. Our pipeline generates a suite of products for each pulsar detection: spin period, flux, event list, high time-resolution light-curve, pulse-profile, periodogram, and spectrum. Combining all three satellites, we generated complete histories of the spin periods, pulse amplitudes, pulsed fractions and X-ray luminosities. Some pulsars show variations in pulse period due to the combination of orbital motion and accretion torques. Long-term spin-up/down trends are seen in 12/11 pulsars respectively, pointing to sustained transfer of mass and angular momentum to the neutron star on decadal timescales. Of the sample 30 pulsars have relatively very small spin period derivative and may be close to equilibrium spin. The distributions of pulse-detection and flux as functions of spin-period provide interesting findings: mapping boundaries of accretion-driven X-ray luminosity, and showing that fast pulsars ($P

description: Evidence regarding patient experiences within the paediatric oncology outpatient context is limited. This study examined the patient/carer experience focussing on patient wait times, patient-clinician interactions and progression through outpatient visits. A mixed-methods design using a time and motion study and semi-structured interviews was employed. Quantitative data collection from 20 patients/family units generated timing evidence of the outpatient visit, while qualitative data obtained from 24 interviews of patients and carers provided vital information from the patient/carer perspective. The results showed that, during an outpatient visit of over 4 hours' duration, patients spend almost 3.5 hours of 'waiting' (including over one hour of waiting before a doctor consultation, and over 2 hours receiving treatment), and participate in an average doctor-patient consultation of approximately 12 minutes. Key factors influencing the outpatient experience included the unpredictable duration of wait intervals, patient-clinician relationships, communication and provision of information, lack of autonomy and oncology-derived complexities. Patients and carers most valued ongoing relationships with their care providers, and the quality of service provided by the clinic. Obtaining patient-centric evidence of a health service is essential in monitoring service quality, understanding service impacts and for future service improvements. Investigation of the patient perspective provides a more comprehensive understanding of the service and ensures that the patient voice is considered -- abstract.

description: Understanding past Southern Ocean climate is important for predicting future climate scenarios. Siliceous microfossil tests preserved in seafloor sediment can be used as proxies to investigate and reconstruct the timing of glacial/interglacial cycles and to estimate past sea-surface temperature. Well-preserved radiolarian tests were sampled from two 2.5 m sediment cores obtained from the continental slope of the Sabrina Coast region, East Antarctica, during RV Investigator voyage IN2017-V01. The radiolarian assemblages were used to verify that the microfossil record can be used as a proxy to reconstruct palaeoclimatic parameters in this region and to estimate summer sea-surface palaeotemperatures using the Imbrie-Kipp transfer function. This research demonstrates that the timing of glacial/interglacial cycles can be identified in Sabrina Coast sediment using the fossil radiolarian record. The Holocene and previous glacial period (i.e. Marine isotope stages 1 and 2) are clearly differentiated with Holocene oceanographic conditions being conducive to biosiliceous sedimentation, whilst conditions during glacial periods are not. Holocene summer sea-surface palaeotemperature estimates range between -3.26 °C and 3.26 °C. Future research will include a Ph.D. project using radiolarians from longer Sabrina Coast cores for palaeoclimate reconstruction over multiple glacial/interglacial cycles.

description: The presence of dust in the intracluster medium (ICM) has been a long-standing problem that is still awaiting elucidation. Direct observational diagnostics are rather challenging (though not impossible) either because of a sparse distribution of dust in the intracluster space that makes extinction measurements difficult or because of a low surface brightness of infrared emission from dust. Complex indirect approaches are currently available that can overcome uncertainties and provide a reasonable understanding of the basic regulations of the physical state of dust in the ICM. Contrary to the common opinion that the hot ICM does not allow dust to survive and manifest, many sparse observational data either directly point out that dust exists in the intracluster space or its presence is consistent with the data. Highly divergent data in direct evidence and highly uncertain indirect indicators are often connected either with dust fragility in a hot environment, the possible compactness of spatial (clumpy) dust distribution in the ICM, or dynamical features of dust transport. The source of dust is obviously connected with galaxies, and it turns out that in most cases, dust is carried from galaxies into the ICM while being thermally and dynamically shielded against the hostile influence of high-energy ions. In this review, we briefly discuss related issues from observational and theoretical points of view, including the transport of dust into the ICM, and the associated destructive and protective mechanisms and their characteristic time scales.

description: On January 21, 2000, the MAB/UNESCO Committee recognized the Can Gio mangrove forest as an International Biosphere Reserve. The MAB/UNESCO committee requires every potential biosphere reserve to be assessed for a period of 10 years. During this time, the ecology of the area is closely reviewed, including the vegetation cover. This study used 45 sample plots in the field and utilized Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems (RS & GIS) technology for mapping, allowing for the close observation of changes in the mangrove forest during a 20 year period (1996-2016). The results show that, from the SPOT, Landsat 8 OLI satellite imagery, we can categorize the land cover maps in Can Gio Mangrove Biosphere Reserve, including periods of 1996, 1999, 2004, 2009 and 2016, into six classes: dense mangrove forest, open mangrove forest, young mangrove forest and scrub, agriculture land, water body, and barren land. The accuracy of the land cover maps for 1996, 1999, 2004, 2009 and 2016 was high, with scores of 84.89 percent, 83.89 percent, 87.78 percent, 82.78 percent, and 84.44 percent, respectively.

description: The controllability of current quantum technologies allows to implement spin-boson models where two-photon couplings are the dominating terms of light-matter interaction. In this case, when the coupling strength becomes comparable with the characteristic frequencies, a spectral collapse can take place, i.e. the discrete system spectrum can collapse into a continuous band. Here, we analyze the thermodynamic limit of the two-photon Dicke model, which describes the interaction of an ensemble of qubits with a single bosonic mode. We find that there exists a parameter regime where two-photon interactions induce a superradiant phase transition, before the spectral collapse occurs. Furthermore, we extend the mean-field analysis by considering second-order quantum fluctuations terms, in order to analyze the low-energy spectrum and compare the critical behavior with the one-photon case.

description: We report on the temperature stability of pseudomorphic GeSn films grown by molecular beam epitaxy on Ge(001) substrates. Both the growth temperature-dependence and the influence of post-growth annealing steps were investigated. In either case we observe that decomposition of metastable epilayers with Sn concentrations around 10% sets in above 230°C, the eutectic temperature of the Ge/Sn system. Time-resolved annealing experiments in a scanning electron microscope reveal the crucial role of liquid Sn droplets in this phase separation process. Driven by a gradient of the chemical potential, the Sn droplets move on the surface along preferential crystallographic directions, thereby taking up Sn and Ge from the strained GeSn layer at their leading edge. While Sn-uptake increases the volume of the melt, dissolved Ge becomes re-deposited by a liquid-phase epitaxial process at the trailing edge of the droplet. Secondary droplets are launched from the rims of the single-crystalline Ge trails into intact regions of the GeSn film, leading to an avalanche-like transformation front between the GeSn film and re-deposited Ge. This process makes phase separation of metastable GeSn layers particularly efficient at rather low temperatures.

Cool brands

description: ‘Cool’ is a concept that is highly relevant for many marketing researchers and practitioners. This is because cool brands can positively influence consumers’ attitudes and behaviours. While cool is commonly targeted through approaches such as ‘coolhunting’, very little research has been conducted to explicate and develop empirical models of cool in the context of brands. In particular, there is a lack of a unified definition of cool and established scales that operationalise cool in different contexts. This thesis addresses these gaps through a series of three interconnected studies that: (1) develop a conceptual framework to understand cool as a concept; (2) empirically test a model of brand cool; and (3) develop and test an 18-item scale to measure brand cool. The first study consists of a systematic review that identifies seven key dimensions of cool: deviating from norms, subversive, evasive, attractive, self-expressive, pro-social, and indicative of maturity. A holistic framework of cool is then developed that integrates existing knowledge on cool from different contexts. Study 2 involves a qualitative interview study involving consumers and marketing experts. This study generated attributes of cool brands and an initial list of items to measure cool that align with the dimensions identified in study 1. Study 2 also provides new insights on how consumer perceptions of cool evolve from adolescence to adulthood. Study 3 is a scale development study that first refines the list of items identified in study 2 and then through a series of four surveys examines the dimensionality, convergent and concurrent validity, and test-retest reliability of the scale. The results lead to a four-dimension model of brand cool (dynamism, composure, subversion, and confidence) that can be measured through a scale. These results clarify the nature of cool and provide marketers with a robust scale to assess cool in different contexts.

description: We study the heavy neutral scalar decays into standard model electroweak gauge bosons in the context of the Littlest Higgs model. We focus our attention on the $Φ^0 \to WW, γV$ processes induced at the one-loop level, with $V=γ, Z$. Since the branching ratios of the $Φ^0 \to γV$ decays result very suppressed, only the $Φ^0 \to WW$ process is analyzed in the framework of possible experimental scenarios by using heavy scalar masses between 1.6 TeV until 3.3 TeV. The branching ratio for the $Φ^0 \to WW$ decay is of the order of $10^{-3}$ throughout the interval 2 TeV $< f
