Synoicum obscurum

description: Synoicum obscurum Kott, 1992
 Synoicum obscurum Kott 1992a, p 496.
 Distribution
 Previously recorded (see Kott 1992a): Victoria (Lakes Entrance); New South Wales (Arrawarra). New record: Tasmanian Canyons (MPA2 area—40.79269 ° E, 144.210916 ° S, 94.6 m).
 Description
The newly recorded colony is a large clump of inverted cones, fixed at their apices to one another. Three or four circles of zooids around common cloacal apertures open on the flat base of the cone, which is at the top of the colony. The internal test is soft and translucent and a thin layer of sand adheres to the outer surface of the cone. The atrial tongue arises from the body wall just anterior to the atrial opening. The stomach is smooth.
 Remarks
 The present temperate species is distinguished from S. sacculum, which has a lobed colony, by the shape of its conical (rather than cushion-like) lobes and irregular creases in the stomach wall (rather than the mulberry-like stomach wall of S. sacculum). Only three specimens of this species previously were known. The newly recorded colony has multiple colony lobes rather than the single one previously known.
Kott (1992a) found the irregular creases in the stomach wall that are present also in the newly recorded specimen. These probably are artefacts.

description: Currently, combination drug therapy is one of the most effective approaches to glioma treatment. However, due to the inherent dissimilar pharmacokinetics of individual drugs and blood brain barriers, it was difficult for the concomitant drugs to simultaneously be delivered to glioma in an optimal dose ratio manner. Herein, a cationic micellar core (Cur-M) was first prepared from d-α-tocopherol-grafted-ε-polylysine polymer to encapsulate the hydrophobic curcumin, followed by dopamine-modified-poly-γ-glutamic acid polymer further deposited on its surface as a anion shell through pH-sensitive linkage to encapsulate the hydrophilic doxorubicin (DOX) hydrochloride. By controlling the combinational Cur/DOX molar ratio at 3:1, a pH-sensitive core–shell nanoparticle (PDCP-NP) was constructed to simultaneously target the cancer stem cells (CSCs) and the differentiated tumor cells. PDCP-NP exhibited a dynamic diameter of 160.8 nm and a zeta-potential of –30.5 mV, while its core–shell structure was further confirmed by XPS and TEM. The ratiometric delivery capability of PDCP-NP was confirmed by in vitro and in vivo studies, in comparison with the cocktail Cur/DOX solution. Meanwhile, the percentage of CSCs in tumors was significantly decreased from 4.16% to 0.95% after treatment with PDCP-NP. Overall, PDCP-NP may be a promising carrier for the combination therapy with drug candidates having dissimilar physicochemical properties.
Diffraction of Bessel beams on 2D amplitude gratings -- a new branch in the Talbot effect study

description: In this paper, an analytical theory for the diffraction of a Bessel beam of arbitrary order $J_l(κr)$ on a 2D amplitude grating is presented. The diffraction pattern in the main and fractional Talbot planes under certain conditions is a lattice of annular microbeams, the diameters of which depend on the grating period, the illuminating beam diameter, the number of the Talbot plane, and the topological charge $l$. For the rings near the optical axis, the latter reproduces $l$ of the illuminating beam. Experiments carried out on the Novosibirsk free electron laser at a wavelength $λ= 141$$μ$m using gratings with hole diameters of down to $d \approx 2λ$, as well as, the numerical simulations, well support the theory. Since the Laguerre-Gaussian beams can be represented as a superposition of Bessel beams, results of this paper can be applied to the analysis of the Talbot effect with the Laguerre-Gaussian beams.

description: We theoretically consider possible errors in solid state quantum computation due to the interplay of the complex solid state environment and gate imperfections. In particular, we study two examples of gate operations in the opposite ends of the gate speed spectrum, an adiabatic gate operation in electron-spin-based quantum dot quantum computation and a sudden gate operation in Cooper pair box superconducting quantum computation. We evaluate quantitatively the non-adiabatic operation of a two-qubit gate in a two-electron double quantum dot. We also analyze the non-sudden pulse gate in a Cooper-pair-box-based quantum computer model. In both cases our numerical results show strong influences of the higher excited states of the system on the gate operation, clearly demonstrating the importance of a detailed understanding of the relevant Hilbert space structure on the quantum computer operations.

Insights into the perceptual moment theory: Experimental evidence from simultaneity judgment

Subjects: classificationCode: 520206
subject: Psychophysiology

description: The perception appears to flow in a continuous pattern but evidence suggest that perception may involve discrete temporal sampling of peripheral cues. Stroud’s perceptual moment theory proposes that perception occurs in discrete moments; however, more experimental evidence is required to support this theory. The present study characterized the decision function for asynchrony detection using variable stimulus-onset asynchronies (SOAs). Fourteen healthy volunteers (twelve males and two females), ages 21.5 ± 3.8 years (mean ± SD) participated in the study. A microcontroller was used to randomly present 280 events of paired stimuli (two red LEDs) with varying SOAs from −65 to 65 ms in steps of 5 ms. Participants were asked to press the “L” or “R” response key based on whether the left or right LED lit up first and to press the “S” key if they could not perceive the order. Asynchrony detection does not exhibit a fixed threshold value; instead, its decision function shows a monotonic increase with increasing SOAs. The asynchrony detection was 50% at an SOA of 27.8 ± 1.7 ms (mean ± SE). The curve plateaued off near 100% at SOA of 57.2 ms, which may correspond to the duration of one perceptual moment for visual perception. Data from a separate group of ten volunteers was used to validate the results. Results indicate that perception is temporally discretized rather than continuous, and the estimated duration of one perceptual moment is around 57.2 ms. This simple experiment gives objective evidence for Stroud’s perceptual moment theory.

description: Global climate change has led to more frequent and severe droughts, which can negatively affect instream invertebrate communities, but we lack a perspective on the global patterns and drivers of such drought effects. Here, using meta-analysis, we synthesized 997 paired observations extracted from 94 peer-reviewed publications to assess how drought affects the biomass, density, taxonomic richness, and diversity (Shannon–Wiener, Simpson, and Pielou indices) of instream invertebrates at a global scale. We found that (i) drought significantly decreased instream invertebrate density and taxonomic richness by an average of 4.9 and 5.0%, respectively, had marginal negative effects on Shannon–Wiener index, but did not affect biomass, Simpson index or Pielou index; (ii) the effects of drought on instream invertebrate biomass, density, and diversity were not affected by taxonomic level, indicating the robustness of our results; and (iii) stream water physiochemical characteristics such as water flow velocity, pH, conductivity, discharge, total nitrogen concentration, and chlorophyll-a concentration were important moderator variables of drought effects on instream invertebrate communities. Overall, our results clearly showed the global patterns and driving factors of drought effects on instream invertebrate biomass, density, richness, and diversity, which helps scientists better understand the responses of instream invertebrate communities under ongoing global climate change.
V1082-Sgr: A magnetic cataclysmic variable with a lobe-filling companion star

description: V1082 Sgr is a cataclysmic variable with accretion luminosity above $10^{34}$erg s$^{-1}$, indicating a mass transfer rate above $10^{-9}M_{\odot}$yr$^{-1}$. However, its K type companion was suggested to be under-filling its Roche lobe (RL), making the high mass transfer rate a mystery. In this work we propose a possible model to explain this discrepancy. The system is proposed to be an intermediate polar, with its K type companion filling its RL. The mass of the white dwarf star is evaluated to be $0.77\pm0.11M_{\odot}$ from both X-ray continuum fitting and Fe line flux ratio measurements. We make numerical simulations to search for the possible progenitors of the system. The results show that a binary with an initial 1.5--2.5$M_{\odot}$ companion in a 1--2 day orbit (or an initial 1.0--1.4$M_{\odot}$ companion in a 3.2--4.1 day orbit) may naturally evolve to a cataclysmic variable with a $\sim 0.55 \pm 0.11M_{\odot}$, Roche-lobe filling companion in a 0.86 day orbit. The effective temperature of the donor star, the mass transfer rate, and the derived V band magnitude are all consistent with previous observations.

 Synoicum sacculum Kott 1992a, p 499 and synonymy.
 Distribution
Previously recorded (see Kott 1992a): South Australia (Great Australian Bight, Gulf St Vincent, West I., Thorny Passage); Victoria (Flinders); Tasmania (W. Granville Harbour). New records: South Australia (Kangaroo I., Vivonne Bay, 2–3 m, SAM E2864; ‘‘The Arches’’, 10–12 m, E3288).
 Description
The colonies consist of irregular sandy cushions to 3 cm diameter or lobes up to 1 cm high and 0.5 cm diameter. The lobes are concave on the upper surface. Basally they are attached to a common basal mat. Sand is present on and in the test and is absent only from around the thoraces at the top of each lobe. The especially small (4 mm long) zooids, obscured by sand, are arranged in two or three circular systems (each of up to 10 zooids) per lobe. The common cloacal openings can be seen only when the sand is removed from the delicate test. Zooids have the usual short synoicid atrial siphon with an atrial lip from the upper rim of the opening and a small median papillum from the mid-line just behind the atrial aperture. Stomach walls are mulberry-like with rounded pouches in the internal lining. In preservative the test and zooids are a yellowish colour and the preservative is also stained yellow.
 Remarks
The specimens, including their colour and the colour of the preservative, are consistent with previous descriptions of this species. A projecting brood pouch containing a single embryo from the postero-dorsal corner of the thorax has been reported in previously described specimens although these pouches were not found in the present material. The mulberry-like stomach, small colony lobes together with the numerous larval lateral ampullae help to distinguish this temperate species.

description: The process of stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP) provides a possible route for the generation of a coherent molecular Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) from an atomic BEC. We analyze this process in a three-dimensional mean-field theory, including atom-atom interactions and non-resonant intermediate levels. We find that the process is feasible, but at larger Rabi frequencies than anticipated from a crude single-mode lossless analysis, due to two-photon dephasing caused by the atomic interactions. We then identify optimal strategies in STIRAP allowing one to maintain high conversion efficiencies with smaller Rabi frequencies and under experimentally less demanding conditions.

 Distribution
 Type locality. South Australia (Kangaroo I. between Western River Cove and Snug Cove, ‘‘ The Arches’ ’, on rock wall, 10–14 m, coll. K. Gowlett Holmes, 14 November 2001, holotype SAM E3283).
 Description
The colony is a solid sandy mass, although the sand is crowded only on the surface and is sparse internally. The upper surface has dome-like elevations surrounded by about 10 branchial apertures and with a terminal common cloacal aperture. Broad sandy rounded ridges surround the domes. The branchial apertures are in the groove between the central dome and the marginal rounded ridge. The atrial aperture is on a brown-coloured siphon with a large, rounded muscular atrial lip projecting from the anterior rim of the opening. About three fine-pointed papillae are on the posterior rim of the atrial opening. Distinct sphincter muscles surround the atrial and branchial siphons. Gonads were not detected in the type colony. A small papillum projects from the mid-dorsal line just behind the atrial opening. The zooids are obscured by the sand on the colony. The branchial sac has 18 rows of stigmata with about 20 in each half row. The anus opens level with the seventh row of stigmata. The stomach is relatively small with 12 shallow, internal longitudinal folds, although these are not always seen in smaller zooids. Gonads were not detected, but the posterior abdomen is present with two narrow longitudinal muscles from the thorax extending along it.
 Remarks
 Although the zooids and the systems are like those of S. concavitum Kott, 1992a, the sphincter muscles around the siphons are more conspicuous and the colony has more sand. Synoicum obscurum Kott, 1992a has different colonies with two or three systems per lobe and only irregular creases (rather than longitudinal folds) in the stomach wall. The larva of the present species is not known.

description: Learning – the specialty of human race. Learning stands for all those changes and modifications in the behavior of the individual which he/she undergoes during his/her life time. According to Kimble (1961) learning is a relatively permanent change in behavioral personality that occurs as a result of reinforced practice (Mangal, 2008). Human learning can be constructed; that is the learners can build new knowledge upon the foundation of previous learning. This previous learning or knowledge influences what new or modified knowledge of an individual will construct from new learning experiences (Phillips, 1995) and this is the core idea behind Constructivism. Constructivism is ‘an approach to learning that holds that people actively construct or make their own knowledge and that is reality determined by the experiences of the learner’ (Elliott et al., 2000, p. 256).

description: We report specific heat measurements on the heavy fermion compound CePd2Si2 in magnetic fields up to 16 T and in the temperature range 1.4-16 K. A sharp peak in the specific heat signals the antiferromagnetic transition at T_N ~ 9.3 K in zero field. The transition is found to shift to lower temperatures when a magnetic field is applied along the crystallographic a-axis, while a field applied parallel to the tetragonal c-axis does not affect the transition. The magnetic contribution to the specific heat below T_N is well described by a sum of a linear electronic term and an antiferromagnetic spin wave contribution. Just below T_N, an additional positive curvature, especially at high fields, arises most probably due to thermal fluctuations. The field dependence of the coefficient of the low temperature linear term, gamma_0, extracted from the fits shows a maximum at about 6 T, at the point where an anomaly was detected in susceptibility measurements. The relative field dependence of both T_N and the magnetic entropy at T_N scales as [1-(B/B_0)^2] for B // a, suggesting the disappearance of antiferromagnetism at B_0 ~ 42 T. The expected suppression of the antiferromagnetic transition temperature to zero makes the existence of a magnetic quantum critical point possible.

self-healing concrete
standardization
expansive minerals
crack sealing
durability

description: Self-healing concrete has the potential to optimise traditional design approaches; however, commercial uptake requires the ability to harmonize against standardized frameworks. Within EU SARCOS COST Action, different interlaboratory tests were executed on different self-healing techniques. This paper reports on the evaluation of the effectiveness of proposed experimental methodologies suited for self-healing concrete with expansive mineral additions. Concrete prisms and discs with MgO-based healing agents were produced and precracked. Water absorption and water flow tests were executed over a healing period spanning 6 months to assess the sealing efficiency, and the crack width reduction with time was monitored. High variability was reported for both reference (REF) and healing-addition (ADD) series affecting the reproducibility of cracking. However, within each lab, the crack width creation was repeatable. ADD reported larger crack widths. The latter influenced the observed healing making direct comparisons across labs prone to errors. Water absorption tests highlighted were susceptible to application errors. Concurrently, the potential of water flow tests as a facile method for assessment of healing performance was shown across all labs. Overall, the importance of repeatability and reproducibility of testing methods is highlighted in providing a sound basis for incorporation of self-healing concepts in practical applications.

description: We investigate the dynamical effects of an interaction between an initially barred galaxy and a small spherical companion using an N-body/SPH algorithm. In the models described here the small companion passes through the disc of the larger galaxy near-perpendicular to its plane. The impact positions and times are varied with respect to the phase of the bar and the dynamical evolution of the disc. The interactions produce expanding ring structures, offset bars, spokes,and other asymmetries in the stars and gas. These characteristic signatures of the interaction are present in the disc for about 1 Gyr. We find that in some cases it is possible to destroy the bar while keeping the disc structure. In general the central impacts cause larger damage to the bar and the disc than the peripheral ones. The interaction tends to accelerate the transition from a strongly barred galaxy to a weakly or non-barred galaxy. The final disc morphology is determined more by the impact position relative to the bar rather than the impact time.

We generalise Fowler-Nordheim relations. Just below the Fermi edge, we find a power-law vanishing current distribution with the density of states exponent. The current distribution above the Fermi edge owes its existence to a peculiar interplay of interactions and correlated tunnelling. It displays a non-trivial power-law divergence just above the Fermi energy.

description: Nonrelativistic systems exhibiting collective magnetic behavior are analyzed within the framework of effective Lagrangians. The method, which formulates the dynamics of the system in terms of Goldstone bosons, allows to investigate the consequences of spontaneous symmetry breaking from a unified point of view. Analogies and differences with respect to the Lorentz-invariant situation (chiral perturbation theory) are pointed out. We then consider the low-temperature expansion of the partition function both for ferro- and antiferromagnets, where the spin waves or magnons represent the Goldstone bosons of the spontaneously broken symmetry $O(3) \to O(2)$. In particular, the low-temperature series of the staggered magnetization for antiferromagnets and the spontaneous magnetization for ferromagnets are compared with the condensed matter literature.

description: We report high-sensitivity AC susceptibility measurements of the penetration depth in the Meissner state of the layered organic superconductor kappa-(BEDT-TTF)2Cu[N(CN)2]Br. We have studied nominally pure single crystals from the two different syntheses and employed controlled cooling procedures in order to minimize intrinsic remnant disorder at low temperatures associated with the glass transition, caused by ordering of the ethylene moieties in BEDT-TTF molecule at T_G = 75 K. We find that the optimal cooling procedures (slow cooling of -0.2 K/h or annealing for 3 days in the region of T_G) needed to establish the ground state, depend critically on the sample origin indicating different relaxation times of terminal ethylene groups. We show that, in the ground state, the behavior observed for nominally pure single crystals from both syntheses is consistent with unconventional d-wave order parameter. The in-plane penetration depth lambda_in(T) is strongly linear, whereas the out-of-plane component lambda_out(T) varies as T^2. In contrast, the behavior of single crystals with long relaxation times observed after slow (-0.2 K/h) cooling is as expected for a d-wave superconductor with impurities (i.e. lambda_in(T) propto lambda_out(T) propto T^2) or might be also reasonably well described by the s-wave model. Our results might reconcile the contradictory findings previously reported by different authors.

description: Planar normal state resistivity data taken from three families of cuprate superconductors are compared with theoretical calculations from the recent extremely correlated Fermi liquid theory (ECFL). The two hole doped cuprate materials $LSCO$ and $BSLCO$ and the electron doped material $LCCO$ have yielded rich data sets at several densities $δ$ and temperatures T, thereby enabling a systematic comparison with theory. The recent ECFL resistivity calculations for the highly correlated $t$-$t'$-$J$ model by us give the resistivity for a wide set of model parameters. After using X-ray diffraction and angle resolved photoemission data to fix parameters appearing in the theoretical resistivity, only one parameter, the magnitude of the hopping $t$, remains undetermined. For each data set, the slope of the experimental resistivity at a single temperature-density point is sufficient to determine $t$, and hence the resistivity on absolute scale at all remaining densities and temperatures. This procedure is shown to give a fair account of the entire data.

 Distribution
 Type locality. Queensland (site no. 144, 17.905 ° S, 146.815 ° E, 63 m, 25 September 2003, CSIRO Biodiversity Survey, holotype QM G308757).
 Description
The mushroom-like colony (about 5 cm diameter across the flat upper surface) narrows abruptly to a short basal stalk from the centre of the lower surface.Sand is thick in the outer layer of test but is only moderately crowded in the central test. Long, thin zooids criss-cross in the central transparent test. Zooids of the holotype are darkly pigmented. They have relatively long abdomina and long and thread-like posterior abdomina. The atrial tongue arises from the body wall just anterior to the opening. Both zooids and their arrangement are obscured by sand.
 Remarks
 The species differs from many others in this genus by the origin of the atrial lip from the body wall anterior to the atrial opening. The atrial opening itself often is on a small siphon with a distinct sphincter muscle. The only other species of the genus which have a similar arrangement of the atrial lip and siphon are Synoicum macroglossum (Hartmeyer, 1919) which also is a tropical species, and S. papilliferum (Michaelsen, 1930), a temperate Australian species. Both these species have large, tough, irregular colonies unlike the mushroom-like colonies of the present species. They all have an external layer of sand, although in the present species and S. papilliferum some sand is present throughout the colony and the external layer is thicker than it is in S. macroglossum, which also lacks sand on the upper surface. Zooids of S. macroglossum and S. papilliferum are similarly long and thread-like, although the former may be larger and have slightly more stigmata. Zooids of the present species are obscured by contraction.

description: Terrestrial dark matter detection experiments probe the velocity-space distribution of dark matter particles in the vicinity of the Earth. We present a novel method, to be used in conjunction with standard cosmological simulations of hierarchical clustering, that allows one to extract a truly local velocity-space distribution in exquisite detail. Preliminary results suggest a new picture for this distribution which is decidedly non-Maxwellian but instead is characterized by randomly positioned peaks in velocity space. We discuss the implications of these results for both WIMP and axion detection experiments.

 Distribution
 Type locality. Tasmania (Port Davey, 6–8 m, coll. K Gowlett Holmes, 12 March 2003, holotype SAM E3268).
 Description
A whitish, flattened, sandy colony with numerous zooids and common cloacal systems. Zooids are along each side of the narrow common cloacal canals that appear to converge to the numerous common cloacal apertures, which sometimes are conspicuous, sessile openings, or they are on the top of slight surface elevations. The translucent zooids sometimes look black owing to the black faecal pellets in their gut. However, there also are some black spherical bodies in the test over the zooids. Zooids have a long pointed atrial lip arising from the upper rim of the atrial aperture. Muscles are relatively delicate. The thorax is long with 11 rows of about eight stigmata per side, a short stomach with five longitudinal folds is in the abdomen. The posterior abdomen is short with bunched testis follicles. Two to four cigar-shaped larvae are being incubated in the atrial cavity. The larval trunk is 0.44 mm long and the long tail is wound about three-quarters of the way around the trunk. Single median ampullae alternate with the three antero-median adhesive organs and epidermal vesicles were not detected.
 Remarks
 The Gulf of Suez/Red Sea tropical species, Aplidium lobatum Savigny, 1816 has similar cloacal systems, the same number of rows of stigmata, and a short posterior abdomen with bunched testis follicles like the present species, although it has more stigmata and the present species appears to be a temperate one. Aplidium ritteri (Sluiter, 1895) is a tropical species with a similar branchial sac, small zooids, five stomach folds, and testis follicles bunched in the posterior abdomen, but its larva is more decorated than the present species, having crowded epidermal vesicles. The present species is distinguished by its relatively small branchial sac, short posterior abdomen with bunched male follicles, and small larvae with median ampullae but without lateral ampullae or epidermal vesicles.

(Figure 10E)
 Aplidium brevilarvaceum Kott 1963, p 113; 1992a, p 527 and synonymy.
 Distribution
Previously recorded (see Kott 1992a): Western Australia (Point Peron, Cape Naturaliste); South Australia (northern Great Australian Bight). New record: South Australia (Kangaroo I., 14–17 m, SAM E3284). Kott (1992a) reports a specimen from Heron I., but this may be incorrect as all other records are from temperate waters.
 Description
Sandy cylindrical stalks, branching once or twice along their length, have terminal translucent heads that slightly overlap the stalks. Sand is crowded in and around the stalks but is sparse in and on the heads.
Zooids open all around the head and they appear to be arranged in double rows, a row along each side of a longitudinal common cloacal canal. Common cloacal canals converge to a terminal common cloacal aperture. Thoraces and abdomina are about the same, relatively short, length. Stomachs have about 10 vertical parallel stomach folds.
 Remarks
 The long, branched stalks are characteristic of colonies of this species, and these stalks, short terminal heads and long vertical double rows of zooids resemble colonies of Distaplia turboensis Kott, 2004 or Distaplia australiensis Brewin, 1953, both of which can be readily distinguished by generic characters. The species has been reported on only four previous occasions. The newly recorded specimen conforms to previous descriptions of this species.
