description: Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted human societies around the world. This public health emergency was followed by a significant loss of human life; the ensuing social restrictions led to loss of employment, lack of interactions, and burgeoning psychological distress. As physical distancing regulations were introduced to manage outbreaks, individuals, groups, and communities engaged extensively on social media to express their thoughts and emotions. This internet-mediated communication of self-reported information encapsulates the emotional health and mental well-being of all individuals impacted by the pandemic. Objective: This research aims to investigate the human emotions related to the COVID-19 pandemic expressed on social media over time, using an artificial intelligence (AI) framework. Methods: Our study explores emotion classifications, intensities, transitions, and profiles, as well as alignment to key themes and topics, across the four stages of the pandemic: declaration of a global health crisis (ie, prepandemic), the first lockdown, easing of restrictions, and the second lockdown. This study employs an AI framework comprised of natural language processing, word embeddings, Markov models, and the growing self-organizing map algorithm, which are collectively used to investigate social media conversations. The investigation was carried out using 73,000 public Twitter conversations posted by users in Australia from January to September 2020. Results: The outcomes of this study enabled us to analyze and visualize different emotions and related concerns that were expressed and reflected on social media during the COVID-19 pandemic, which could be used to gain insights into citizens' mental health. First, the topic analysis showed the diverse as well as common concerns people had expressed during the four stages of the pandemic. It was noted that personal-level concerns expressed on social media had escalated to broader concerns over time. Second, the emotion intensity and emotion state transitions showed that fear and sadness emotions were more prominently expressed at first; however, emotions transitioned into anger and disgust over time. Negative emotions, except for sadness, were significantly higher (P

description: The paper proposes a Degree Phrase (DegP) and a Focus Phrase (FocP) before the comparative adjective in the typical comparative construction in Shanghainese, in which FocP is always base-generated higher than DegP, and thus form the pattern of FocP>DegP.It is further pointed out that the comparative subject can always be topicalized.Therefore, the typical comparative construction in Shanghainese is a topic structure in nature.The comparative standard can also be topicalized, providing that there is a DegP, or a FocP highlighting the comparative adjective as the new information in the comment.

description: Oat (Avena sativa) is a cereal crop whose grains are rich in (1,3;1,4)-β-D-glucan (mixed-linkage glucan or MLG), a soluble dietary fiber. In our study, we analyzed oat endosperm development in 2 Canadian varieties with differing MLG content and nutritional value. We confirmed that oat undergoes a nuclear type of endosperm development but with a shorter cellularization phase than barley (Hordeum vulgare). Callose and cellulose were the first polysaccharides to be detected in the early anticlinal cell walls at 11 days postemergence (DPE) of the panicle. Other polysaccharides such as heteromannan and homogalacturonan were deposited early in cellularization around 12 DPE after the first periclinal walls are laid down. In contrast to barley, heteroxylan deposition coincided with completion of cellularization and was detected from 14 DPE but was only detectable after demasking. Notably, MLG was the last polysaccharide to be laid down at 18 DPE within the differentiation phase, rather than during cellularization. In addition, differences in the spatiotemporal patterning of MLG were also observed between the 2 varieties. The lower MLG-containing cultivar AC Morgan (3.5% w/w groats) was marked by the presence of a discontinuous pattern of MLG labeling, while labeling in the same walls in CDC Morrison (5.6% w/w groats) was mostly even and continuous. RNA-sequencing analysis revealed higher transcript levels of multiple MLG biosynthetic cellulose synthase-like F (CSLF) and CSLH genes during grain development in CDC Morrison compared with AC Morgan that likely contributes to the increased abundance of MLG at maturity in CDC Morrison. CDC Morrison was also observed to have smaller endosperm cells with thicker walls than AC Morgan from cellularization onwards, suggesting the processes controlling cell size and shape are established early in development. This study has highlighted that the molecular processes influencing MLG content and deposition are more complex than previously imagined.

description: We report that the saturation/CGC model of gluon distribution is unstable under action of the chaotic solution in a nonlinear QCD evolution equation, and it evolves to the distribution with a sharp peak at the critical momentum. We find that this gluon condensation is caused by a new kind of shadowing-antishadowing effects, and it leads to a series of unexpected effects in high energy hadron collisions including astrophysical events. For example, the extremely intense fluctuations in the transverse-momentum and rapidity distributions of the gluon jets present the gluon-jet bursts; a sudden increase of the proton-proton cross sections may fill the GZK suppression; the blocking QCD evolution will restrict the maximum available energy of the hadron-hadron colliders.

description: An important part of children's reading development is the transition from laboriously sounding out a word to automatic word recognition, which is referred to as orthographic learning. In this thesis, I examine the role of phonological decoding in the process of orthographic learning. I also apply theories and findings generated in alphabetic languages to a non-alphabetic language, Chinese. This thesis is presented in three parts. Firstly, a broad literature review on the role of phonological decoding in reading development is presented. In particular, the phase theory and the self-teaching hypothesis are discussed, with empirical evidence in several languages examined. The review also identifies a lack of empirical studies of non-alphabetic languages, and proposes how phonological decoding can be investigated in orthographic learning in Chinese. Next, drawing on the literature review, an empirical study is presented to examine the mechanisms of phonological decoding in Chinese, and to address whether they make a direct contribution to orthographic learning. Two research questions are tested: 1) Whether and how Chinese children use phonetic radicals, the "internal approach" and, 2) Zhuyin, the "external approach" for phonological decoding and orthographic learning. The findings support that both approaches are adopted for phonological decoding in Chinese. However, only the internal approach directly contributes to orthographic learning. Finally, theoretical implications of the findings are discussed. Directions for future research are also outlined.

description: In response to the growing demand for precise and affordable solutions for Image-Guided Spine Surgery (IGSS), this paper presents a comprehensive development of a Robot-Assisted and Navigation-Guided IGSS System. The endeavor involves integrating cutting-edge technologies to attain the required surgical precision and limit user radiation exposure, thereby addressing the limitations of manual surgical methods. We propose an IGSS workflow and system architecture employing a hybrid-layered approach, combining modular and integrated system architectures in distinctive layers to develop an affordable system for seamless integration, scalability, and reconfigurability. We developed and integrated the system and extensively tested it on phantoms and cadavers. The proposed system's accuracy using navigation guidance is 1.020 mm, and robot assistance is 1.11 mm on phantoms. Observing a similar performance in cadaveric validation where 84% of screw placements were grade A, 10% were grade B using navigation guidance, 90% were grade A, and 10% were grade B using robot assistance as per the Gertzbein-Robbins scale, proving its efficacy for an IGSS. The evaluated performance is adequate for an IGSS and at par with the existing systems in literature and those commercially available. The user radiation is lower than in the literature, given that the system requires only an average of 3 C-Arm images per pedicle screw placement and verification

Critical thinking in English language teaching in the Vietnamese context: perceptions and university students' competence

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: This study examines the importance and feasibility of critical thinking (CT) in English language teaching (ELT) in the Vietnamese tertiary context. CT, which has now become a worldwide phenomenon, is considered to be one of the essential skills that students must learn in order to succeed in their studies at university and in their life after university. However, there exists a mismatch between a growing tendency in Vietnamese universities, due to globalization, to build CT into the curriculum of different disciplines, even the discipline of English Linguistics and Literature, on the one hand, and limited, dated literature on CT in ELT on the other hand. This study investigates CT in ELT in the perceptions of teachers and students at a leading public university in Vietnam, and examines senior students’ competence in CT. Evidence was collected through two questionnaires, two CT tasks and interviews in a qualitative case study within an interpretive research paradigm. Findings revealed (1) that CT, which all the participants could formulate an idea of, was perceived to be especially important in ELT, appropriate for Vietnamese students, and congruent with the Vietnamese context of ELT; (2) that a majority of the participants adopted positive attitudes towards the specification of CT as a programme/course learning outcome; and (3) that senior students’ CT competence was evaluated to vary along a continuum, though mainly gathering around the average level.

description: With dozens of Jovian and super-Jovian exoplanets known to orbit their host stars in or near the stellar habitable zones, it has recently been suggested that moons the size of Mars could offer abundant surface habitats beyond the solar system. Several searches for such exomoons are now underway, and the exquisite astronomical data quality of upcoming space missions and ground-based extremely large telescopes could make the detection and characterization of exomoons possible in the near future. Here we explore the effects of tidal heating on the potential of Mars- to Earth-sized satellites to host liquid surface water, and we compare the tidal heating rates predicted by tidal equilibrium model and a viscoelastic model. In addition to tidal heating, we consider stellar radiation, planetary illumination and thermal heat from the planet. However, the effects of a possible moon atmosphere are neglected. We map the circumplanetary habitable zone for different stellar distances in specific star-planet-satellite configurations, and determine those regions where tidal heating dominates over stellar radiation. We find that the `thermostat effect' of the viscoelastic model is significant not just at large distances from the star, but also in the stellar habitable zone, where stellar radiation is prevalent. We also find that tidal heating of Mars-sized moons with eccentricities between 0.001 and 0.01 is the dominant energy source beyond 3--5 AU from a Sun-like star and beyond 0.4--0.6 AU from an M3 dwarf star. The latter would be easier to detect (if they exist), but their orbital stability might be under jeopardy due to the gravitational perturbations from the star.

description: We carried out a small-scale study in order to gain a better understanding of the tools researchers use to collaborate around data, and to explore the barriers and difficulties that prevent researchers from using institutional tools and services. Six semi-structured interviews were conducted with researchers from the University of Edinburgh, representing different schools, and all of whom collaborate with other researchers on a regular basis on either small- or large-scale projects.
description: We found that participants use many different tools, both institutional and commercial, to collaborate, share, analyse and transfer documents and data files. Decisions about which tools to use are based on data types, data size, usability, network effect and whether their collaborators are in the same institution and country. Researchers tend to use institutional tools only if they are very simple and user friendly, if there is a special requirement for this from funders or principal investigators (PIs), or if it is directly beneficial for them from a data analysis perspective. Sharing beyond the immediate collaboration is only a secondary concern. A major issue was the need for tools that answer projects’ particular needs. Researchers are generally well aware of the need to keep their data where it will be safe and backed-up, and are not concerned about the risk of data loss.

Unnaturally natural: subjectivity and place in contemporary young adult dystopian fiction
Creators: name: Thompson, Stephanie
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Contemporary young adult dystopian fiction challenges adolescent readers to think about current social and political issues, and engage in debates about the relationship between people, technology, and nature. Above all, these narratives provide an opportunity for young people to consider and challenge the hierarchies that exist between these, and their own role in reinforcing or dismantling them. This thesis explores the representation of place and subjectivity in contemporary young adult dystopian fiction. My analysis of such narratives draws from ecocritical and posthumanist theories. While both ecocriticism and posthumanism have been (and continue to be) addressed separately in children's literature, it is through considering both theoretical approaches that the greater cultural debate of people, nature, and technology can be addressed. An ecocritical approach to the posthuman subject provides a framework within which the relationship between place and subjectivity in young adult fiction can be explored and understood. In addition to these theoretical approaches, I draw upon a topoanalytical approach to dystopian fiction for young adults from Jane Suzanne Carroll's study of British children's fantasy fiction. A topoanalytical approach to contemporary dystopian fiction for young adults highlights the relationship between place and subjectivity in these narratives. Michel Foucault's concept of heterotopic spaces is also influential in my textual analysis, which demonstrates how places tend to function to suppress or reward the development of subjectivity. The relationship between place and subjectivity in young adult fiction addresses the greater cultural debate of people, technology, nature, and their place in the twenty-first century. This thesis closely analyses contemporary young adult dystopian fiction that allows the adolescent reader to interrogate subjectivity through the perspective of posthuman protagonists that focalise the experience of identity-formation resulting from their relationship to place. I contend that individual subjectivity is embedded in the environment, and the individual's engagement with and perception of place informs their development of subjectivity. Contemporary young adult dystopian fiction narratives strategically use the environment to illustrate aspects of identity-formation. The protagonist's relationship to the spaces and places depicted in these narratives informs their development of subjectivity. The textual analysis in this thesis demonstrates how contemporary young adult dystopian fiction engages with ideas from posthumanism and ecocriticism, and represents place and place-connectedness as integral to the construction of a posthuman subjectivity -- abstract.

description: By using an exact analytical approach to the time evolution of decay we investigate the tunneling decay of ultracold single atoms, to discuss the conditions for deviations of the exponential decay law. We find that $R$, given by the ratio of the energy of the decaying fragment $\mathcal{E}_r$ to its corresponding width $Γ_r$, is the relevant quantity in this study. When $R$ is less than $0.3$ the decay of the atom goes to a good approximation for the first few lifetimes as $\exp(-Γ_rt/2\hbar)t^{-3/2}$. We also find that for values of $R \sim 1$, the nonexponential behavior occurs in a post-exponential regime that goes as $t^{-3}$ after around a dozen of lifetimes. The above conditions depend on suitable designed potential parameters and suggest that for values $R \lesssim 1$, the experimental verification of nonexponential decay might be possible.

description: A novel technique for remote, non-contact, in situ monitoring of the protein crystal temperature has been developed for the new I23 beamline at the Diamond Light Source, a facility dedicated to macromolecular crystallography (MX) with long-wavelength X-rays. The temperature is derived from the temperature-dependant decay time constant of luminescence from a minuscule scintillation sensor (0.05 mm3) located in very close proximity to the sample under test. In this work we present the underlying principle of cryogenic luminescence lifetime thermometry, discuss the features of the detection method, the choice of temperature sensor and demonstrate how the temperature monitoring system was integrated within the viewing system of the end-station used for the visualisation of protein crystals. The thermometry system was characterised using a Bi4Ge3O12 (BGO) crystal scintillator that exhibits good responsivity of the decay time constant as function of temperature over a wide range (8-270 K). The scintillation sensor was calibrated and the uncertainty of the temperature measurements over the primary operation temperature range of the beamline (30-150 K) was assessed to be +-1.6 K. It has been shown that the temperature of the sample holder, measured using the luminescence sensor, agrees well with the expected value. The technique was applied to characterise the thermal performance of different sample mounts that have been used in MX experiments at the I23 beamline. The thickness of the mount is shown to have the greatest impact upon the temperature distribution across the sample mount. Altogether these tests and findings demonstrate the usefulness of the thermometry system in highlighting the challenges that remain to be addressed for the in-vacuum MX experiment to become a reliable and indispensable tool for structural biology

Understanding mathematical self-efficacy: student approaches to learning and conceptions of mathematics in learning mathematics

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: My research provides a unique contribution to the field of mathematics education by advancing our understanding of the nature of mathematical self-efficacy, student approaches to learning, and conceptions of mathematics. Influenced by theoretical frameworks of self-efficacy (Bandura, 1977, 1997), student approaches to learning (Biggs, 1987; Marton & Säljö, 1976, 2005) and students' mathematics-related beliefs (Op't Eynde, De Corte, & Verschaffel, 2002), my research aims to investigate the nature of and inter-relations of these constructs with examination performance. This research is important because successful completion of mathematics courses is a priority for higher education providers, whose goals are to improve mathematical skills and knowledge in business, science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education. This thesis incorporates three studies in Australia and New Zealand. Surveys are carried out with around 300 engineering and business students who study mathematics courses as service subjects. Three noteworthy findings would be of relevance to lecturers: firstly, that strong mathematical performance is predicted by mathematical self-efficacy (Study 1; N=67), secondly, that successful mathematics performance is strongly associated with deep approaches to learning, organised approaches to learning, and a cohesive conception of mathematics (Study 2; N=291), and thirdly, a low-level secondary mathematics education is associated with high examination scores in first-year mathematics courses (Study 3; N=73). These research findings would have practical implications on the development of mathematical self-efficacy, guided mastery experiences, deep learning strategies, real-life applications of mathematics, and authentic assessments for higher education students.

description: The increase in prevalence of antimicrobial-resistant bacteria in the past decade is a serious global threat, hence there is a need for new antimicrobial compounds to treat bacterial infections. One strategy to look for antimicrobial compounds is by prospecting for novel microorganisms. This thesis characterizes a novel bacterium, Burkholderia paludis along with its antimicrobial compound which is pyochelin. Pyochelin is able to inhibit the growth of antimicrobial-resistant bacteria by enhancing the generation of free radicals. This finding reveals a new function of pyochelin and signifies a promising alternative to treat infections caused by antimicrobial-resistant bacteria.

description: Rapid and accurate determination of hydrogen peroxide is necessary in biochemistry and environmental science. In this paper, a sensitive hydrogen peroxide electrochemical sensor was developed by cyclic voltammetry deposition of polyaniline–copper nanocomposite film on a glassy carbon electrode. The synthesized polyaniline/Cu composites were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. With a typical working potential of 0.4 V (versus Ag/AgCl) and a pH value of 6.0, the prepared electrochemical sensor achieved linear range of 1.0–500 µM for hydrogen peroxide detection. A relative standard deviation of 4.9% for n = 7 and 10.0 µM of H2O2 and a limit of detection of 0.33 µM at a signal-to-noise ratio = 3 were observed. The sensor was successfully used for the analysis of tap water, and a spiked recovery of 93.0 ± 2.1% was obtained, further confirming the sensor’s accuracy and feasibility.

Vortex lattices and critical fields in anisotropic superconductors

description: A method is developed to compute minimal energy vortex lattices in a general Ginzburg-Landau model of a superconductor subjected to an applied magnetic field. The model may have any number of components and may be spatially anisotropic. The novelty of this method is that it makes no assumptions about the orientation of the vortex lines or the period vectors of the lattice's unit cell: these are all determined dynamically. Methods to compute the first and second critical magnetic fields, $H_{c_1}$ and $H_{c_2}$, in this class of models are also developed.
 These methods are applied to a simple anisotropic single-component model, and to an anisotropic two-component model of strong current theoretical interest (a so-called $s+id$ model). It is found, in both cases, that at low applied field the vortex lines can tilt very significantly away from the direction of the applied field (by as much as $40^\circ$ for the single-component and $30^\circ$ for the $s+id$ model). The optimal lattice in the $s+id$ model is qualitatively very different from the conventional triangular Abrikosov lattice, exhibiting a phase transition from a system of Skyrmion chains when the external field is orthogonal to the basal plane to a deformed Abrikosov lattice when applied in the basal plane.

Dimensional Coherence: An Information-Theoretic Framework for Cosmological Evolution
Creators: name: Todd, Ian
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: This paper introduces the dimensional coherence framework, a novel information-theoretic approach to understanding universal evolution. We conceptualize dimensions as informational patterns with distinct coherence properties rather than static geometric constructs. Dimensional coherence refers to stable informational relationships that emerge between different degrees of freedom, optimizing energy processing efficiency and enabling structured complexity. By examining how low-frequency stabilizing signals (such as primordial density fluctuations or neural oscillations) create coherence patterns across dimensional configurations, we demonstrate how symmetry breaking events can be understood as dimensional mergers that lock in specific informational signatures. Measurement itself emerges as a thermodynamic process requiring energy to create entropy gradients, naturally establishing boundaries between different information domains. This framework offers new perspectives on fine-tuning, physical laws, and complex structure formation from stars to neural systems, while providing testable predictions across multiple scales of organization.

Sensitivity of public debt to macroeconomic shocks: An application to the Egyptian economy

description: This paper aims at assessing the vulnerability of public debt to various shocks in macroeconomic variables in Egypt. This is particularly relevant for the Egyptian economy since it has currently witnessed high levels of public debt and has adopted a structural reform program that encompasses fiscal and monetary reforms to ensure macroeconomic stability. Hence, it is crucial to provide insights to policy makers on the most influential variables that affect the public debt to boost the reform efforts and guarantee fiscal sustainability. Accordingly, this work utilizes a structural vector auto regressive model (SVAR) for the Egyptian economy during the period (2005-2015) to investigate the relationship between gross public debt and a set of macroeconomic, monetary and fiscal variables. The results indicate a positive relationship between government debt and major economic variables - except inflation and government revenues. A positive shock in economic growth, government expenditures, real effective exchange rates or interest rates are all expected to cause a higher level of public debt. This result is consistent with the upward trend of rising public debt through the time interval of the study. Meanwhile, an increase in the inflation rate erodes the real value of public debt, and hence has a negative impact on the debt-to-GDP ratio. Finally, an increase in government revenues leads to a reduction in the debt-to-GDP ratio but after a transitory period of 3 quarters. This negative relationship does not occur instantly, as it takes time to reverse the upward trend in public debt and overcome the inclination to borrow more even if revenues are increasing. Consequently, sufficient measures need to be taken to ensure a sustainable increase in government revenues, while cutting and prioritizing government expenditures to decrease the overall level of public debt.

description: This paper analyses the efficiency of cryptocurrency markets by applying econometric models to different short-term investment horizons. A number of experiments are carried out to demonstrate that small training sets can still be used to build efficient and useful forecasts, which in turn can be transformed into straightforward investment strategies. It also compares the application of selected models on cryptocurrency and mature stock markets. The forecasting accuracy of the models is explored using different error metrics and different horizons. The results suggest that the variation of the error estimates doesn’t appear to be tightly related to the maturity of the markets, but rather depends on the intrinsic characteristics of the analyzed time series.

description: Discrete models provide concise descriptions of complex physical phenomena, such as negative refraction, topological insulators, and Anderson localization. While there are multiple tools to obtain discrete models that demonstrate particular phenomena, it remains a challenge to find metamaterial designs that replicate the behavior of desired nontrivial discrete models. Here we solve this problem by introducing a new class of metamaterial, which we term 'perturbative metamaterial', consisting of weakly interacting unit cells. The weak interaction allows us to associate each element of the discrete model (individual masses and springs) to individual geometric features of the metamaterial, thereby enabling a systematic design process. We demonstrate our approach by designing 2D mechanical metamaterials that realize Veselago lenses, zero-dispersion bands, and topological insulators. While our selected examples are within the mechanical domain, the same design principle can be applied to acoustic, thermal, and photonic metamaterials composed of weakly interacting unit cells.
