Figs. 7–11
 Type material. HOLOTYPE female, West Canungra Creek at Blue Pool, Lamington National Park, Queensland, Australia, 15 November 2003 (QM).
 Diagnosis. Glandularia of fourth coxal plates shifted onto third coxal plates; genital field triangular; IV-leg-5 with four swimming setae, IV-leg-6 with three swimming setae.
 Description. Female: Idiosoma dorsally 672 long and 405 wide, ventrally 737 long. Fourth coxal plates extending onto dorsum, the dorsal parts scale-like. One pair of small eyes, which are hardly visible. Capitulum 244 long, including its a long anchoral process, which is approximately 114 long. First and second coxal plates ending posteriorly in a long, pointed extension. Posterior apodemes of fourth coxal plates short, 30 long. Posterior margin of fourth coxal plates sloping. Glandularia of fourth coxal plates shifted onto third coxal plates. Genital plates triangular, with three pairs of acetabula, 22 in diameter; acetabula occupying most of the space of genital plate. Genital plate 62 long and 37 wide, occupying only a small part of the genital field. Pregenital sclerite large, 92 wide. Lengths of PI–PV: 22, 58, 78, 86, 40. PII stocky; PIV ventrally straight, with well separated, thin setae; PV relatively long compared to other species. Lengths of I-leg-4–6: 128, 120, 108. Lengths of IV-leg-4–6: 206, 228, 204. IV-leg-5 with four long swimming setae, IV-leg-6 with three swimming setae. Legs I–III without swimming setae. All legs with claws, clawlet and small claw blade.
Male: Unknown.
 Remarks. No other Australiobates species has the glandularia of the fourth coxae shifted onto the third coxae. Moreover, the long swimming setae are also unusual, as most species have only two swimming setae on IV-leg-5. In most hyporheic species swimming setae are reduced, so it is somewhat questionable if the new species is truly hyporheic. However, the small, reduced eyes are an indication of a subterranean way of life.

Eccentric grazing envelope evolution towards type IIb supernova progenitors

description: We simulate the evolution of eccentric binary systems in the frame of the grazing envelope evolution (GEE) channel for the formation of Type IIb supernovae (SNe IIb), and find that extra mass removal by jets increases the parameter space for the formation of SNe IIb in this channel. To explore the role of eccentricity and the extra mass removal by jets we use the stellar evolutionary code MESA binary. The initial primary and secondary masses are M1i=15Mo and M2i=2.5Mo. We examine initial semi-major axes of 600-1000Ro, and eccentricities of e=0-0.9. Both Roche lobe overflow (RLOF) and mass removal by jets, followed by a wind, leave a hydrogen mass in the exploding star of M(H,f)=0.05Mo, compatible with a SN IIb progenitor. When the initial orbit is not circular the final orbit might have a very high eccentricity. In many cases, with and without the extra mass removal by jets, the system can enter a common envelope evolution (CEE) phase, and then gets out from it. For some ranges of eccentricities the jets are more efficient in preventing the CEE. Despite the large uncertainties, extra mass removal by jets substantially increases the likelihood of the system to get out from a CEE. This strengthens earlier conclusions for circular orbits. In some cases RLOF alone, without mass removal by jets, can form SN IIb progenitors. We estimate that the extra mass removal by jets in the GEE channel increases the number of progenitors relative to that by RLOF alone by about a factor of two.

description: The world tr~de model used for this study suggests that Japanese agricultural policies have depressed world rice prices substantially. The study also indicates that such policies have imposed considerable distortions in their domestic economy; costing consumers and taxpayers nearly $1.73 to provide a dollar of support to agricultural producers. The study concludes that while elimination of agricultural support could lower Japanese agricultural incomes considerably, such losses may not affect the living standards of most farmers because agriculture contributes less than 8 percent of total household incomes for nearly 70 percent of farmers.

description: Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) encountered the primary low-latitude magnetopause reconnection site when the inter-spacecraft separation exceeded the upstream ion inertial length. Classical signatures of the ion diffusion region (IDR), including a sub-ion-Alfvénic de-magnetized ion exhaust, a super-ion-Alfvénic magnetized electron exhaust, and Hall electromagnetic fields, are identified. The opening angle between the magnetopause and magnetospheric separatrix is $30^\circ\pm5^\circ$. The exhaust preferentially expands sunward, displacing the magnetosheath. Intense pileup of reconnected magnetic flux occurs between the magnetosheath separatrix and the magnetopause in a narrow channel intermediate between the ion and electron scales. The strength of the pileup (normalized values of 0.3-0.5) is consistent with the large angle at which the magnetopause is inclined relative to the overall reconnection coordinates. MMS-4, which was two ion inertial lengths closer to the X-line than the other three spacecraft, observed intense electron-dominated currents and kinetic-to-electromagnetic-field energy conversion within the pileup. MMS-1, 2, and 3 did not observe the intense currents nor the particle-to-field energy conversion but did observe the pileup, indicating that the edge of the generation region was contained within the tetrahedron. Comparisons with particle-in-cell simulations reveal that the electron currents and large inclination angle of the magnetopause are interconnected features of the asymmetric Hall effect. Between the separatrix and the magnetopause, high-density inflowing magnetosheath electrons brake and turn into the outflow direction, imparting energy to the normal magnetic field and generating the pileup. The findings indicate that electron dynamics are likely an important influence on the magnetic field structure within the ion diffusion region.

description: The observed neutrino oscillation data might be explained by new physics at a TeV scale, which is testable in the future experiments. Among various possibilities, the low-energy Higgs triplet model is a prime candidate of such new physics since it predicts clean signatures of lepton flavor violating processes directly related to the neutrino masses and mixing. It is discussed how various neutrino mass patterns can be discriminated by examining the lepton flavor violating decays of charged leptons as well as the collider signatures of a doubly charged Higgs boson in the model.

description: In this paper, we investigate the dynamics and the evolution of the scale factor of a probe Dp-brane which move in the background of source Dp-branes. Action of the probe brane is described by the Born-Infeld action and the interaction with the background R-R field. When the probe brane moves away from the source branes, it expands by power law, whose index depends on the dimension of the brane. If the energy density of the gauge field on the brane is subdominant, the expansion is decelerating irrespective of the dimension of the brane. On the other hand, when the probe brane is a Nambu-Goto brane, the energy density of the gauge field can be dominant, in which case accelerating expansion occurs for $p \leq 4$. The accelerating expansion stops when the brane has expanded sufficiently so that the energy density of the gauge field become subdominant.

description: The article discusses the progress of changes in the area structure of individual farms and related to this changes in the number of workers in agriculture as well as the issue of unused labour resources in Poland. The research material are public statistics data (Polish Statistical Office – GUS) and the results of own research carried out at IAFE-NRI. A detailed analysis of the decline in the share of people working in agriculture among the total number of employed in our country indicates that in the recent period the scale of decline in the value of this indicator is accelerating. These tendencies were mainly the result of a much larger than before increase in the number of non-agricultural workers, especially among rural residents.

description: Slovak agriculture has 2,44 mil. ha agricultural soil available for food and raw material production, of which 1,44 mil. ha are plough land. In comparison with the neighbouring countries (Czech Republic, Hungary, Austria) natural fertility of our soil is about 10-18% lower. It is an important fact because it reduces our competitiveness of production and food sale. In addition, in the structure of agricultural soil we register the so called threatened soil fond including immission threatened soils. The soils contaminated by exhalations produce lower crop yields, and production has to be oriented toward crops that are possible to grow but not those that are interesting to the market. As a result, property. loss arises (due to damage and losses). This loss changes, depending on soil contamination. It is in a range of 382 to 1,775 Sk. ha-1.
An investigation into a sustainable transport option for the UBC farm : a triple bottom line assessment

description: This report is an investigation into a sustainable transport option for the UBC farm. Specifically, the farm needs a new truck since the old one is failing to meet what is used for. This report investigates a triple bottom line assessment of three major options: diesel, biodiesel, and hybrid. A triple bottom line assessment covers the economical, environmental, and social aspects and impacts of option. The farm does have constraints and requirements when it comes to this issue. The truck must last for a minimum for three years and be able to haul heavy loads. Furthermore, it is used year round in rough terrain; therefore four-wheel drive is a necessity. In general, the truck is allowed to be manual and only travels short distances each day. In conclusion, using B20 fuel in the biodiesel option was found to be best. It abides to all the desired requirements and is the most well rounded choice. The following report will give an in-depth analysis of how this recommendation was made.

title: Evaluation of the complexity of cell cycle effects induced by anticancer drugs
Creators: name: Lupi, Monica
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2006

description: The time- and dose-dependence of the blocking activity, cell loss and recycling from block that follow a treatment with anticancer agents is not always easy to interpret, especially because of the superimposition of cytostatic and cytotoxic effects. Their separate quantification, in terms of the cellular control mechanisms that regulate the response to a drug treatment, is important to deeply understand the mode of action of an anticancer compound.

We investigated cell cycle effects induced by different drugs on a cell line growing in vitro with an approach including experimental data coming from cell counting and different flow cytometric techniques and a mathematical model reproducing the perturbed cell growth after drug treatment. In this way we could quantify the effects induced by treatments performed with topotecan, doxorubicin and melphalan on IGROV1 cells, evaluating separately cytostatic and cytotoxic effects. For each one of the considered drugs we obtained and compared a set of parameters describing the time- and dose-dependence of cell cycle effects. These results were compared with those previously published by our group (Sena et al., 1999; Montalenti et al., 1998).

Besides the classical flow cytometric techniques, we used the method of carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester staining to quantify and appreciate the heterogeneity of the effects induced by a treatment on the cells of the same population. The results obtained could be simulated with our mathematical model. In the last part of the project, the previously listed tools were used to obtain two sets of parameters describing the effects induced by a short treatment of cisplatin on HCT-116 and HCT-116 p53-/-. This allowed the quantification of the role of p53 in the cell response to cisplatin treatment, finding that this protein has a more important role in the activation of the apoptosis than in the cytostatic effects induced by this drug.

description: The construction of the new Student Union Building (SUB) at the University of British Columbia (UBC) provides a perfect opportunity to make changes to the existing food container system. UBC strives to reduce solid waste and carbon footprint in order to establish a more sustainable campus. Alma Master Society (AMS) is proposing their eleven food outlets to implement the Bring Your Own Container (BYOC) concept in the new SUB. The BYOC is a system in which customers are required to bring their own reusable container instead of the store providing disposable take-out containers. The program aims to reduce the solid waste produced by disposable containers. For the investigation, it is assumed that the food outlets will only supply food to customers who bring reusable containers. A triple bottom line analysis for sustainability is conducted to determine the feasibility of adopting the BYOC program in the new SUB. A survey is created to collect the opinions of students around the campus for the social aspect. The economic and environmental aspect is investigated by studying the similar programs that currently exists in UBC and other universities. The reusable containers have an apparent positive impact on the environment. However, they take more energy to produce, so the reusable containers must be used at least a specific amount of time before it generates a net benefit on the environment. Customers benefit from the BYOC containers economic wise; conversely, food outlets have to subsidize the discount program creating a negative impact on stores. Overall, the economic aspect can be considered as having a neutral effect. The social aspect has a neutral standpoint in the sustainability analysis. Data from the survey suggests that a majority of survey candidates are neutral for willingness to participate in the BYOC program. It is recommended that food outlets should still provide disposable take-out container, but with a surcharge.

description: Based on the extended optical model approach in which the polarization potential is decomposed into direct reaction (DR) and fusion parts, simultaneous $χ^{2}$ analyses are performed for elastic scattering, DR, and fusion cross section data for the $^{9}$Be+$^{208}$Pb system at near-Coulomb-barrier energies. Similar $χ^{2}$ analyses are also performed by only taking into account the elastic scattering and fusion data as was previously done by the present authors, and the results are compared with those of the full analysis including the DR cross section data as well. We find that the analyses using only elastic scattering and fusion data can produce very consistent and reliable predictions of cross sections particularly when the DR cross section data are not complete. Discussions are also given on the results obtained from similar analyses made earlier for the $^{9}$Be+$^{209}$Bi system.

title: Development of a PCR assay to quantify take-all pathogens of wheat
Creators: name: Wilson, Ruth Kathrine
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2005

description: Take-all is a disease in wheat which can cause significant yield losses. If it was possible to predict these losses, by competitive PCR, agronomic decisions could be made to reduce them. As the causal agent, Gaeumannomyces graminis, is found in the soil organic matter, soil DNA extraction methods were tested for their efficacy. An inhibition assay was designed to test the level of inhibition present in DNA extracted from soil. Of the extractions tested the CTAB extraction was the most successful at removing inhibitors and the commercially available Soil DNA Isolation Kit ™ was the least successful. All extraction methods tested required some dilution to enable the amplification of the inhibition standard. Soil DNA extraction was found to be time consuming so stem bases and roots were used with the competitive PCR assay. To create a quantitative competitive PCR assay published primers were amplified with known G. graminis isolates. They produced unexpected results which meant that they were unsuitable for use in a competitive PCR assay.

Consequently HAGG primers were designed and successfully amplified known G. graminis var. tritici and var. avenae isolates, and isolated G. graminis from take-all infected wheat plants. The HAGG competitive PCR assay was used to quantify the presence of the take-all pathogen in a large number of plant samples ranging in age. Regressions of DNA concentration and visual symptoms or yield did not result in strong correlations. Analysis suggested the variability between the fields explained a large proportion of variability.

A large scale experiment was completed to compare the impact of various seed treatments on pathogen DNA concentration, visual disease assessment, grain quality and yield. Early assessment of the plant material demonstrated the heterogeneous nature of this disease. When taking the pathogen DNA concentration at stubble into account a Latitude® (silthiofam) seed treatment achieved the greatest yield; Baytan® (triadimenol and fuberidazole) resulted in the lowest yield. The experiment demonstrated that this competitive PCR assay has the potential in field experiments to take account of the initial inoculum load.

description: The narrow-gap magnesium silicide semiconductor Mg2Si is a promising mid-temperature (600–900 K) thermoelectric material. It intrinsically possesses n-type conductivity, and n-type dopants are generally used for improving its thermoelectric performance; however, the synthesis of p-type Mg2Si is relatively difficult. In this work, the hole doping of Mg2Si with various impurity atoms is investigated by performing first principles calculations. It is found that the Ag-doped systems exhibit comparable formation energies ΔE calculated for different impurity sites (Mg, Si, and interstitial 4b ones), which may explain the experimental instability of their p-type conductivity. A similar phenomenon is observed for the systems incorporating alkali metals (Li, Na, and K) since their ΔE values determined for Mg (p-type) and 4b (n-type) sites are very close. Among boron group elements (Ga and B), Ga is found to be favorable for hole doping because it exhibits relatively small ΔE values for Si (p-type) sites. Furthermore, the interstitial insertion of Cl and F atoms into the crystal lattice leads to hole doping because of their high electronegativity.

description: An integral domain (or a commutative cancellative monoid) is atomic if every nonzero nonunit element is the product of irreducibles, and it satisfies the ACCP if every ascending chain of principal ideals eventually stabilizes. The interplay between these two properties has been investigated since the 1970s. An atomic domain (or monoid) satisfies the finite factorization property (FFP) if every element has only finitely many factorizations, and it satisfies the bounded factorization property (BFP) if for each element there is a common bound for the number of atoms in each of its factorizations. These two properties have been systematically studied since being introduced by Anderson, Anderson, and Zafrullah in 1990. Noetherian domains satisfy the BFP, while Dedekind domains satisfy the FFP. It is well known that for commutative cancellative monoids (in particular, integral domains) FFP $\Rightarrow$ BFP $\Rightarrow$ ACCP $\Rightarrow$ atomic. For $n \ge 2$, we show that each of these four properties transfers back and forth between an information semialgebras $S$ (i.e., a commutative cancellative semiring) and their multiplicative monoids $T_n(S)^\bullet$ of $n \times n$ upper triangular matrices over~$S$. We also show that a similar transfer behavior takes place if one replaces $T_n(S)^\bullet$ by the submonoid $U_n(S)$ consisting of unit triangular matrices. As a consequence, we find that the chain FFP $\Rightarrow$ BFP $\Rightarrow$ ACCP $\Rightarrow$ atomic also holds for the classes comprising the noncommutative monoids $T_n(S)^\bullet$ and $U_n(S)$. Finally, we construct various rational information semialgebras to verify that, in general, none of the established implications is reversible.

description: In an electromagnetic cavity, photons can be created from the vacuum state by changing the cavity's properties with time. Using a simple model based on a massless scalar field, we analyze resonant photon creation induced by the time-dependent conductivity of a thin semiconductor film contained in the cavity. This time dependence may be achieved by irradiating periodically the film with short laser pulses. This setup offers several experimental advantages over the case of moving mirrors.

description: We discuss modifications to the concept of an ``antiparticle'', induced by a breakdown of the CPT symmetry at a fundamental level, realized within an extended class of quantum gravity models. The resulting loss of particle-antiparticle identity in the neutral-meson system induces a breaking of the EPR correlation imposed by Bose statistics. The latter is parametrized by a complex parameter controlling the amount of contamination by the ``wrong'' symmetry state. The physical consequences are studied, and novel observables of CPT-violation in $ϕ$ factories are proposed.

title: Evaluation of ensiled whole-crop legumes for ruminants
Creators: name: Hart, Kenton James
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2005

description: Experiments evaluating the production methods and nutritive values of ensiled whole-crop legumes for ruminants were conducted. The initial experiment studied the effect of direct-cutting or wilting and additive type on ensiling profile and nutritive value of whole-crop pea (WCP) and bean silages differing in condensed tannin (CT) content. All treatments produced lactic-type silages with a mean DM, pH, CP and NH3-N content of 209 g kg-1, 4.1, 158 g kg-1 DM and 80 g kg-1 TN respectively. Mean WCP had a higher (P<0.050) DM, CP, IVDOMD and estimated ME content compared to beans.

In subsequent experiments degradation characteristics of WCP silages differing in CT content were determined. In addition, the effect of dietary inclusion of WCP on lamb growth rate, nitrogen balance and dairy cow milk production were investigated. WCP had a greater (P0.001) nitrogen degradation and higher (P<0.050) effective degradability compared to grass silage (GS). Lambs were fed diets containing GS or GS/WCP supplemented with barley, with or without an additional 200 g d-1 soya-bean meal (SBM). Feeding WCP silage increased (P<0.050) mean growth rate by 21.9 g d-1 but forage DM intake was not affected, equating to a SBM replacement equivalent of 95 g d-1. Including WCP silage in diets did not affect lamb nitrogen balance (mean 11.3 g d-1) or microbial protein synthesis (mean 14.8 g N d-1). WCP silage was added to dairy cow rations which were supplemented with either 1.1 kg d-1 of SBM or wheat. Performance was evaluated against a control diet supplemented with SBM. Feeding WCP silage in dairy rations increased (P<0.050) forage DM intake in contrast to the control diet. However, no effect on milk or milk component yield (mean 24.0 kg, 1.02 kg fat and 0.83 kg protein d-1 respectively) was observed, equating to a daily SBM replacement of 1.1 kg.

description: Lattice QCD simulations of the potential between two baryons, each containing a heavy quark and two light quarks, such as the Lambda_Q-Lambda_Q potential, will provide insight into the nucleon-nucleon interaction. As one-pion exchange does not contribute to the Lambda_Q-Lambda_Q potential, the long-distance behavior is dominated by physics that contributes to the intermediate-range attraction between two nucleons. We compute the leading long-distance contributions to the Lambda_Q-Lambda_Q potential in QCD and in partially-quenched QCD in the low-energy effective field theory.

description: This paper is concerned with the problem of testing a subset of the parameters which characterize the error variance-covariance matrix in the general linear regression model. Formulae for likelihood ratio, Wald, Lagrange multiplier and asymptotically locally most mean powerful test statistics based on the likelihood of a maximal invariant statistic or an equivalent marginal likelihood are given. Specific applications discussed are the problems of testing against AR(4) disturbances in the presence of AR(1) disturbances and testing for a Hildreth-Houck (1968) random coefficient against the alternative of a Rosenberg (1973) random coefficient. Monte Carlo size and power calculations for these two testing problems are reported. These results provide further evidence that supports the proposed approach to test construction. It also suggests that better handling of nuisance parameters is likely to improve the small-sample properties of asymptotically based inference procedures.
