description: This quiz is designed to help a pilot meet his or her aircraft. Although no attempt is made to cover in depth all of the information contained in the typical Pilot's Operating Handbook (POH), Owner's Manual (OM), or Aircraft Flight Manual (AFM), the quiz will provide a review of some of the basic information a pilot should know before taking off on any flight and especially on a long cross-country flight with passengers. The quiz will also help a transitioning pilot better understand his or her new aircraft.

description: Longitudinal sound attenuation measurements in superfluid 3He in 98% aerogel were conducted at pressures between 14 and 33 bar and in magnetic fields up to 4.44 kG. The temperature dependence of the ultrasound attenuation in the A-like phase was determined for the entire superfluid region exploiting the field induced meta-stable A-like phase at the highest field. In the lower field, the A-B transition in aerogel was identified by a smooth jump in attenuation on both cooling and warming. Based on the transitions observed on warming, a phase diagram as a function of pressure (P), temperature (T) and magnetic field (B) is constructed. We find that the A-B phase boundary in aerogel recedes in a drastically different manner than in bulk in response to an increasing magnetic field. The implications of the observed phase diagram are discussed.

Informative cues affect proactive modulation of corticospinal excitability during a selective vs. global stop signal task
Creators: name: Lack, AL
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: The ability to inhibit and reprogram movement in response to changing goals is fundamental to successful engagement with the world (Bestmann & Duque, 2016). The current study utilised single pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to explore modulation of corticospinal excitability (CSE) in 23 (12 female) young adults during movement preparation in a task that required unimanual (selective) or bimanual (global) stopping of a bimanual button press. On some trials a cue informed participants of the stop type that might be required. Overall, CSE in the non-stopping hand was greater than in the hand that was cued to stop, which supports a facilitation model of CSE modulation. Behaviourally, there was a significantly reduced selective stopping cost (SSC) and improved stopping performance during cued trials. However, no significant differences in CSE modulation or stopping performance were observed between selective and global stopping. These findings support a flexible and generic mechanism for inhibition, rather than independent mechanisms for global and selective stopping. This research contributes to a body of literature aiming to elucidate the neural underpinnings of inhibition, which is essential for understanding how it is impaired in healthy ageing or conditions like Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD), Schizophrenia, or Tourette's Syndrome.

description: Low mass X-ray binaries that show thermonuclear bursts are ideal sources for constraining the equation of state of neutron star matter. The lack of independent distance measurements for most of these sources, however, prevents a systematic exploration of the masses and radii of the neutron stars, hence limiting the equation of state studies. We present here a measurement of the distance to the low mass X-ray binary 4U 1608-52 that is based on the study of the interstellar extinction towards the source. We first model the individual absorption edges of the elements Ne and Mg in the high resolution X-ray spectrum obtained with XMM-Newton. We then combine this information with a measurement of the run of reddening with distance using red clump stars and determine a minimum distance to the source of 3.9 kpc, with a most probable value of 5.8 kpc. Finally, we analyze time-resolved X-ray spectra of Type-I X-ray bursts observed from this source to measure the mass and the radius of the neutron star. We find a mass of M = 1.74 +/- 0.14 M_sun and a radius of R = 9.3 +/- 1.0 km, respectively. This mass and radius can be achieved by several multi-nucleon equations of state.

Clinical haemopoietic implications of fucoidan treatment
Creators: name: Irhimeh, MR
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Haematopoiesis is a term that describes the formation of mature cellular blood components from haemopoietic progenitor stem cells (HPC). The majority of HPC reside in the bone marrow (BM) with a small number continually escaping into the circulation then re-homing back into the BM in a process called trafficking. Stromal cells in the BM constitutively express and secrete stromal cell derived factor (SDF-1). This highly conserved chemokine binds to heparin and to CXCR4 receptor acting as a chemo-attractant for CXCR4\\(^+\\) cells; the system plays a role in regulating stem cell trafficking. This study examined the clinical effects of ingesting fucoidan extracted from brown macro-algae (Undaria pinnatifida) in vitro and in vivo in a series of single blinded placebo-controlled clinical trials. Fucoidans comprise sulphated long branched chains of sugar, containing large amounts of fucose and galactose. Fucoidan is biologically active and is known to modulate coagulation, inflammation, cell proliferation and adhesion, tumorigenesis and resistance to viral infection. To study its clinical value an ELISA assay based on a novel antibody was established to quantify the level of the bio-available fucoidan in human plasma after oral doses. The consequences of ingesting fucoidan on healthy volunteers were investigated in detail by studying different biological and pathological parameters including liver and kidney functions. This study established that daily ingestion of 3 g of different fucoidan extracts for 2 weeks is safe. To study the anticoagulant activity of fucoidan, haemostasis was examined closely in vitro and in vivo. Although, fucoidan is a highly potent anticoagulant in vitro there was limited activity when used orally. Fucoidan was found also to positively regulate the lipid profile by reducing cholesterol and triglyceride plasma levels. The effect of fucoidan on HSPC trafficking was tested. Ingestion of fucoidan increased the expression of CXCR4 on CD34\\(^+\\) cells and increased the plasma level of SDF-1 and IFN-˜í‚â•. A decrease in CD4\\(^+\\) and CD8\\(^+\\)+ cells was also observed in volunteers who ingested fucoidan. When either peripheral blood or cord blood CD34+ cells were cultured in vitro in a cytokine expansion system CXCR4 on CD34\\(^+\\) cells was down-regulated. This study also showed that fucoidan slows down the CD34\\(^+\\) cell cycle and interacts and binds with different cytokines (SCF, TPO, Flt-3 and SDF-1) and presents them to cells. In conclusion, this study showed that fucoidan has several clinical effects including effects on lipids regulation, haemostasis, immune system, haematopoiesis, trafficking of HSPC and related cytokines.

description: The 21-cm line fluctuations and the cosmic microwave background (CMB) are powerful probes of the epoch of reionisation of the universe. We study the potential of the cross-correlation between 21-cm line fluctuations and CMB anisotropy to obtain further constraints on the reionisation history. We compute analytically the 21-cm cross-correlation with the CMB temperature anisotropy and polarisation, and we calculate the signal-to-noise (SN) ratio for its detection with Planck together with LOFAR, MWA and SKA. We find, on the one hand, that the 21-cm cross-correlation signal with CMB polarisation from the instant reionisation can be detected with an SN ratio of $\sim 1$ for LOFAR and $\sim 10$ for SKA. On the other hand, we confirm that the detection of the 21-cm cross-correlation with CMB polarisation is practically infeasible.

description: The house cricket (Acheta domesticus) is considered one of the most promising farmed insect to be used as novel food, thanks to its attractive nutritional profile and its great taste. To the best of our knowledge, crickets in Europe are reared on soybean meal-rich feed which won’t be sustainable in the long run. Insect producers have shown interest in using more environmentally friendly substrates for cricket’s rearing. Among these, seaweed has been investigated as feed ingredients for insect rearing. However, no studies on crickets are available. We aimed to evaluate the potential use of the alga Palmaria palmata in the diet of house crickets (5%, 10% and 20% of the diet), in terms of insect performances and nutritional composition (protein, lipid, amino acids and fatty acids). Crickets fed seaweed-enriched diets showed good performance parameters (individual weight, cricket yield and survival) compared to crickets fed the control diet without presenting statistically significant differences (P > 0.05), while their nutritional composition changed significantly for some components. Protein content of the crickets increased when more seaweed was added to their diets (P = 0.0115), while the fat content decreased (P = 0.0451). Also, the amino acid composition of the crickets remained stable between dietary groups, except for histidine, methionine and lysine which increased in crickets fed more seaweed in the diet (P = 0.0430, P = 0.0342, P = 0.0302, respectively). Finally, the presence of seaweed in the diet led to a transfer of the omega-3 eicosapentaenoic acid from the seaweed to the crickets (P < 0.0001), which are naturally lacking this fatty acid. Based on this study, we conclude that the red alga Palmaria Palmata is a suitable substrate for cricket mass rearing up to 20 g/100 g of the diet. However, higher seaweed inclusion and longer dietary administration time could affect the nutritional composition of the house cricket differently, therefore they should be investigated.

description: The area of stable motion for fictitious Trojan asteroids around Uranus' equilateral equilibrium points is investigated with respect to the inclination of the asteroid's orbit to determine the size of the regions and their shape. For this task we used the results of extensive numerical integrations of orbits for a grid of initial conditions around the points L4 and L5, and analyzed the stability of the individual orbits. Our basic dynamical model was the Outer Solar System (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune). We integrated the equations of motion of fictitious Trojans in the vicinity of the stable equilibrium points for selected orbits up to the age of the Solar system of 5 billion years. One experiment has been undertaken for cuts through the Lagrange points for fixed values of the inclinations, while the semimajor axes were varied. The extension of the stable region with respect to the initial semimajor axis lies between 19.05 < a < 19.3 AU but depends on the initial inclination. In another run the inclination of the asteroids' orbit was varied in the range 0 < i < 60 and the semimajor axes were fixed. It turned out that only four 'windows' of stable orbits survive: these are the orbits for the initial inclinations 0 < i < 7, 9 < i < 13, 31 < i < 36 and 38 < i < 50. We postulate the existence of at least some Trojans around the Uranus Lagrange points for the stability window at small and also high inclinations.

description: This paper studies the relationship between a vacancy population obtained from web crawling and vacancies in the economy inferred by a National Statistics Office (NSO) using a traditional method. We compare the time series properties of samples obtained between 2007 and 2014 by Statistics Netherlands and by a web scraping company. We find that the web and NSO vacancy data present similar time series properties, suggesting that both time series are generated by the same underlying phenomenon: the real number of new vacancies in the economy. We conclude that, in our case study, web-sourced data are able to capture aggregate economic activity in the labor market.
Gamma-ray angular distribution from the reaction D(p.[Delta])[3]He below 200 KeV
Creators: name: Olivo, Miguel Angel
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The angular distribution of the gamma-rays from the direct radiative capture reaction D(p,ɣ)³He has been measured for 70 KeV and 144 KeV protons in the laboratory system, using thin deuterated polyethylene targets. The study of this particularly simple reaction is of interest for determining some properties of the forces which bind nuclear particles to each other. In addition it plays a role in a number of astrophysical processes. The ground state of ³He is predominantly a symmetric ²S state with admixtures of a ⁴D state and ²S(m) state of mixed symmetry. These admixtues are related to specific components of the two body forces coupling the three particles. The measurements were made with a high current 180 KeV accelerator, built by the author, using an ORTEC duoplasmatron ion source. Technical problems involved in the development of the accelerator and the deuterated targets are discussed. The angular distribution at 144 ± 16 KeV in terms of Legendre polynomials P₁ is given in the centre of mass system by W(ɵ) = Aₒ[Pₒ+(.05±.02)P₁-(.94±.02)P₂-(.05±.02)P₃+(.03±.02)P₄] and at 70 ± 20 KeV the angular distribution is given by W(ɵ) = Aₒ[Pₒ+(.(.06±.04)P₁-(.93±.05)P₂-(.06i±.04)P₃+(.02±.05)P₄] The coefficients in the Legendre polynomial expansion are related to the various transitions between the continuum and bound states. Their significance in terms of the different components of the ³He ground state wave function is discussed. The absolute cross section (i.e. the coefficient Aₒ ) has not been measured. Plans for measuring it in the near future are discussed briefly.

description: We discuss general properties of D-brane model building at toric singularities. Using dimer techniques to obtain the gauge theory from the structure of the singularity, we extract results on the matter sector and superpotential of the corresponding gauge theory. We show that the number of families in toric phases is always less than or equal to three, with a unique exception being the zeroth Hirzebruch surface. With the physical input of three generations we find that the lightest family of quarks is massless and the masses of the other two can be hierarchically separated. We compute the CKM matrix for explicit models in this setting and find the singularities possess sufficient structure to allow for realistic mixing between generations and CP violation.

description: Ozone measurements taken with a ground based microwave instrument at Lindau (51.66° N, 10.13° E) over some years showed strong ozone decrease events within the stratopause region, particularly during the winter half-year. These events are characterized by a marked drop of the ozone mixing ratio from two to three ppmv to less than half a ppmv in extreme cases. Simultaneous water vapor measurements at the same place, also carried out by a microwave instrument, showed a strong increase of its mixing ratio and the temperature was also enhanced during these episodes. The theoretical analysis brought evidence that these events result from a positive feedback in the complex radiatively-chemical system between the ozone column density and the ozone dissociation rate.

description: In this work, two silicon nitride (SiNx) layers with two different refraction indices, deposited on polished or damageetched silicon wafers were locally irradiated by laser pulses. The focus was set on the investigation of the ablation mechanisms. Thereby, an ultra-short laser source (pulse duration 10 ps, wavelength 532 nm, Gaussian profile) was used. The irradiated areas were investigated by electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) in order to analyze the nearsurface crystallographic orientation and crystallinity. In this work an indirect ablation was observed for SiN x (n = 1.9). Further, a change from an indirect ablation to a partial lift-off for SiNx (n = 2.1) was determined to be fluence dependent. At low fluences, the SiNx was completely removed. However, at higher fluences, SiNx was not completely removed, due to direct ablation. The two-photonabsorption coefficient of SiNx (n = 2.1) was estimated to be 2·105 cm/TW.
Optical studies of the internal acceptor states in boron-doped silicon
Creators: name: Parsons, Robert Raymond
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The introduction of boron into a silicon crystal lattice produces two sets of acceptor impurity states: (i) the "external" states (which include the acceptor ground state) which are associated with the P₃/₂ valence band maxima and are the usual impurity states lying in the forbidden gap, (ii) the "internal" states which are associated with the P₁/₂ valence band maximum and are degenerate with P₃/₂ continuum states. The energies of the transitions from the ground state to the so-called 2p', 3p' and 4p' internal acceptor states are such that the 2p', 3p' and 4p' internal absorption peaks are seen in the infrared. Three different experiments are performed to study the "internal" spectrum of boron-doped silicon. (i) The stress-perturbed behavior of the 2p' and 3p' absorption peaks is studied with the use of calibrated uniaxial stress (≤ 10⁹ dynes/cm² ) and polarized light. From these data it is deduced that the ground state has a ⌈8 symmetry while the 2p' and 3p' internal states each have a ⌈6 symmetry. In addition the deformation potential parameters of the ground state are calculated to be: b' = -0.66 ± 0.04 eV. and d' = -2.1 ± 0.2 eV. These calculated parameters for the ground state are used to obtain indirectly some information about the deformation potential parameters of the P₃/₂ valence band edge. (ii) For the temperature range 5°K ≤ T ≤ 60°K the temperature dependences of the breadths of the 2p' and 3p' peaks are measured. These temperature dependences are attributed to phonon broadening. The phonon broadening mechanism for the 2p' and 3p' peaks is shown to be primarily due to a lifetime effect caused by electron-phonon coupling of the 2p' and 3p' states to the P₃/₂ valence band states. (iii) For the impurity concentration range 2.6 x 10¹⁵ boron/cm³ ≤ N ≤ 4.5 x 10¹⁷ boron/cm³ the 2p' absorption peak is measured. With increasing concentration this peak is observed to broaden and become very asymmetrical. Explanations to the above data are presented.

description: We present morphological classifications obtained using machine learning for objects in SDSS DR6 that have been classified by Galaxy Zoo into three classes, namely early types, spirals and point sources/artifacts. An artificial neural network is trained on a subset of objects classified by the human eye and we test whether the machine learning algorithm can reproduce the human classifications for the rest of the sample. We find that the success of the neural network in matching the human classifications depends crucially on the set of input parameters chosen for the machine-learning algorithm. The colours and parameters associated with profile-fitting are reasonable in separating the objects into three classes. However, these results are considerably improved when adding adaptive shape parameters as well as concentration and texture. The adaptive moments, concentration and texture parameters alone cannot distinguish between early type galaxies and the point sources/artifacts. Using a set of twelve parameters, the neural network is able to reproduce the human classifications to better than 90% for all three morphological classes. We find that using a training set that is incomplete in magnitude does not degrade our results given our particular choice of the input parameters to the network. We conclude that it is promising to use machine- learning algorithms to perform morphological classification for the next generation of wide-field imaging surveys and that the Galaxy Zoo catalogue provides an invaluable training set for such purposes.

Samples were collected from the shoots of one-month-old C. intermedia seedlings at 0.5, 1, 3, 6, 12, 24 or 48 h following high-pH treatment, and untreated plants were employed as the control. The expression levels of 28 CiWRKYs with full-length sequences were examined via qRT-PCR. Expression values were estimated using the 2-ΔΔCT method, and CiEF1α was used as reference gene. The error bars represent the means of three technical replicates ± SD. (PDF 257 kb)
The geology of the sideling range
Creators: name: Thompson, D
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: The Sideling Range is comprised of Mathinna Group sediments on the western margin of the Scottsdale Batholith. The Sideling Range is situated close to an informally proposed stratigraphic transition within the Mathinna Group that has been documented but not comprehensively mapped or defined. The Sideling Sandstone has been informally proposed as a distinct unit from the underlying Bellingham Formation. Recent prospecting around the Sideling Range has also revealed a small area of gold mineralisation within a contact aureole, opening the possibility that the gold is related to granite intrusion rather than a typical turbidite hosted mesothermal gold vein style. This thesis studies the structure and sedimentology of the Sideling Range. It defines the Sideling Sandstone and discusses the proposed stratigraphic transition. It also investigates the nature of the gold mineralising fluid. The Sideling Range consists of first generation NNW trending folds that conform to the regional structure of the Mathinna Group. Faulting within the Sideling Range is rare and small-scale and post Dl deformation is mainly only evident within the contact aureole. The Sideling Sandstone unit is approximately 1500 metres thick. It is a fine to medium-grained sandstone that is dominated by thick and massively bedded sandstones that are interlayered with thinner bedded classical turbidites as well as siltstone. The Sideling Sandstone is more thickly bedded than the Bellingham Formation and is from a more proximal environment on the submarine fan. The Sideling Sandstone was deposited in an ancient channel environment. The study of sulphides within the gold mineralised veins revealed that the fluid, which formed the veins, had a magmatic component.
Quasi-evaporating black holes and cold dark matter

description: Vilkovisky has claimed to have solved the black hole backreaction problem and finds that black holes lose only ten percent of their mass to Hawking radiation before evaporation ceases. We examine the implications of this scenario for cold dark matter, assuming that primordial black holes are created during the reheating period after inflation. The mass spectrum is expected to be dominated by 10-gram black holes. Nucleosynthesis constraints and the requirement that the earth presently exist do not come close to ruling out such black holes as dark matter candidates. They also evade the demand that the photon density produced by evaporating primordial black holes does not exceed the present cosmic radiation background by a factor of about one thousand.

description: Binding of noble gases (NGs) is commonly considered to be the realm of highly reactive electophiles with cationic or at least non-charged character. Herein, we summarize our latest results evidencing that the incorporation of a strongly electrophilic site within a rigid cage-like anionic structure offers several advantages that facilitate the binding of noble gases and stabilize the formed NG adducts. The anionic superelectrophiles investigated by us are based on the closo-dodecaborate dianion scaffold. The record holder [B12(CN)11]− binds spontaneously almost all members of the NG family, including the very inert argon at room temperature and neon at 50 K in the gas phase of mass spectrometers. In this perspective, we summarize the argumentation for the advantages of anionic electrophiles in binding of noble gases and explain them in detail using several examples. Then we discuss the next steps necessary to obtain a comprehensive understanding of the binding properties of electrophilic anions with NGs. Finally, we discuss the perspective to prepare bulk ionic materials containing NG derivatives of the anionic superelectophiles. In particular, we explore the role of counterions using computational methods and discuss the methodology, which may be used for the actual preparation of such salts. © Copyright © 2020 Rohdenburg, Azov and Warneke.
On the Non-Coherent Wideband Multipath Fading Relay Channel

Year: 2010

subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: We investigate the multipath fading relay channel in the limit of a large bandwidth, and in the non-coherent setting, where the channel state is unknown to all terminals, including the relay and the destination. We propose a hypergraph model of the wideband multipath fading relay channel, and show that its min-cut is achieved by a non-coherent peaky frequency binning scheme. The so-obtained lower bound on the capacity of the wideband multipath fading relay channel turns out to coincide with the block-Markov lower bound on the capacity of the wideband frequency-division Gaussian (FD-AWGN) relay channel. In certain cases, this achievable rate also meets the cut-set upper-bound, and thus reaches the capacity of the non-coherent wideband multipath fading relay channel.

description: The setting of Braided Ribbon Networks is used to present a general result in spin-networks embedded in manifolds: the existence of an infinite number of species of conserved quantities. Restricted to three-valent networks the number of such conserved quantities in a given network is shown to be invariant barring a single case. The implication of these conserved quantities is discussed in the context of Loop Quantum Gravity.

description: Music in early childhood can enhance the development of communication, language, cognitive, and social emotional skills. Music therapy administered by a board-certified music therapist can be tailored to fit the specific developmental needs of children with and without disabilities. The purpose of this comprehensive clinical project was to develop a music therapy program for the Early Learning Center at the Lexington Hearing and Speech Center and a grant proposal to fund this program. First, I piloted a mini program through my Graduate Clinical Placement in Music Therapy (MUS 633) and supervisory experiences through my teaching assistantship. I then developed a program proposal that originated from an assignment in MUS 630: Medical Music Therapy. I tailored that program based on iterative feedback from various sources and based on the needs of the center identified by communication with the Director of the Early Learning Center. The program is grounded in the Affirmative Model of Disability, and I incorporated information gleaned from the Therapeutic Function of Music process to develop the music therapy components. Once I established the refined program proposal, I searched for an appropriate funding source for nonprofit organizations. After I identified an appropriate funding source (Toyota Motor Manufacturing, Kentucky, Inc.), I completed the grant application and received and reflected on feedback from various professional sources and my thesis chair. The completed clinical project is a detailed process on how I developed a music therapy program and grant proposal for an inclusive early learning center and a reflection on what I learned and the barriers I faced while completing this project. Music therapists may use this project as a model for program development and funding acquisition.

Dissecting the software patent problem : an argument against patentability based on the relationship between software and mathematics
Creators: name: Hughes, AR
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Should software be patentable? Despite a US Presidential Commission answering in the negative in 1968, and a legislative exclusion operating in the UK since 1977, the patenting of software has become a regular occurrence in the US, the UK and Australia. But even now software's patentability is not settled, as evidenced by the widespread protests against the EU Software Directive in 2005, and the level of anticipation of the US Supreme Court decision in Bilski v Kappos in 2010. The reason for this continuing unrest is that the patenting of software provides a number of practical problems for the software industry and theoretical challenges to the coherence of the patent regime. In all of this, software's relationship with mathematics has been overlooked. Software is both a product of and isomorphic to mathematics. This makes for an interesting avenue of inquiry, both because of mathematics' long history, and courts' acceptance of it as inherently non-patentable. This thesis explores historical and philosophical accounts of mathematics in pursuit of a better understanding of its nature. That account demonstrates why many theories as to mathematics' non-patentability are largely unsatisfactory. However, by refocusing the debate on the conditions necessary for mathematical advancement, a three-dimensional analytical framework emerges, centred around the concept of the useful arts. This analysis both explains mathematics' non-patentability, and offers a theory of patentable subject matter consistent with Australian, American and European patent law. The analysis is then applied to the field of software to explain why software falls so close to the boundary, but ultimately ought not be considered patentable subject matter.
