description: Background and purpose — Literature describing long-term functional outcome and osteoarthritis (OA) in adjacent joints after femoral lengthening is rare. We evaluated physical function and the presence of radiographic OA in adjacent joints in 10 patients ≥ 27 years after femoral lengthening. Patients and methods — We conducted a cross-sectional study of 10 patients treated by unilateral femoral lengthening. Follow-up was between 27 and 34 years. Physical function was evaluated by the 30-second sit-to-stand (30sSTS) and a stair test and was compared with reference values. 4 single-legged hop tests were used to assess difference in physical function between the lengthened and contralateral limb. Radiographic OA was evaluated by joint space width (JSW) and Kellgren and Lawrence (KL) classification. Results — The patients scored worse compared with reference values on the 30sSTS and stair test, and worse on the lengthened limb on the single- and triple-hop test. Radiographic OA was found in the hip or knee in the lengthened limb in 3 of 10 patients based on JSW and 4 of 10 based on KL. No radiographic OA was found in unlengthened limbs. Interpretation — Our results showed impaired physical function both in general and of the lengthened limb. Additionally, we found a possible association between femoral lengthening and radiographic OA in adjacent joints in the long term. However, the sample size of the current study is small.

description: The main problem of agricultural land protection in China is the single farmland protection mode insuring arable land area only by issuing indicators, which brings great pressure to farmland’s production and service function. Through establishing the corresponding relationship between food structure and some land use types, this paper points out that there is asymmetry between farmland area and per capita food consumption structure in China in recent years. Based on the above study, the paper proposes four types for agricultural land production, namely subsistence, fairly well-off, ecological and discrete type. Finally, it concludes that establishing rational type for agricultural land protection and implementing diverse farmland protection modes is the trend of farmland protection in China in the future.

description: We compute, on the disk, the non-linear tachyon $β$-function, $β^T$, of the open bosonic string theory. $β^T$ is determined both in an expansion to the third power of the field and to all orders in derivatives and in an expansion to any power of the tachyon field in the leading order in derivatives. We construct the Witten-Shatashvili (WS) space-time effective action $S$ and prove that it has a very simple universal form in terms of the renormalized tachyon field and $β^T$. The expression for $S$ is well suited to studying both processes that are far off-shell, such as tachyon condensation, and close to the mass-shell, such as perturbative on-shell amplitudes. We evaluate $S$ in a small derivative expansion, providing the exact tachyon potential. The normalization of $S$ is fixed by requiring that the field redefinition that maps $S$ into the tachyon effective action derived from the cubic string field theory is regular on-shell. The normalization factor is in precise agreement with the one required for verifying all the conjectures on tachyon condensation. The coordinates in the space of couplings in which the tachyon $β$-function is non linear are the most appropriate to study RG fixed points that can be interpreted as solitons of $S$, $i.e.$ D-branes.

description: The endophytic fungus Periconia sp. TJ403-rc01 (Dematiaceae) isolated from the leaves of Rosa chinensis Jacq. (Rosaceae) was cultivated on rice medium and chemically investigated, affording two new lanostane-type triterpenoids, namely pericinones A and B (1 and 2). Their structures were determined mainly by 1 D and 2 D NMR and HRESIMS data. Notably, it is the first report of lanostane-type triterpenoids from species of Periconia. Compounds 1 and 2 showed moderate anti-inflammatory activity against the NO production with IC50 values of 24.12 ± 0.73 and 11.38 ± 1.56 μM, respectively.

description: We study the properties of the $n$-volumic scalar curvature in this note. Lott-Sturm-Villani's curvature-dimension condition ${\rm CD}(κ,n)$ was showed to imply Gromov's $n$-volumic scalar curvature $\geq nκ$ under an additional $n$-dimensional condition and we show the stability of $n$-volumic scalar curvature $\geq κ$ with respect to smGH-convergence. Then we propose a new weighted scalar curvature on the weighted Riemannian manifold and show its properties.

description: In the context of analog gravity the Hawking effect can be generalized to domains outside astrophysics. Arguably, the most successful systems for this analogy have been so far the sonic and the optical ones. However, problems arise in the analog systems as their dispersive effects are too large to be ignored, and this in turn modifies the usual thermal spectrum of Hawking radiation. In this work we perform analytical and numerical studies on how the velocity profile modifies the Hawking temperature in dispersive media, including some with direct experimental application.

description: This article analyzes the status quo of social security for migrant workers in China, and points out that there are deep system and concept reasons for the lack of labor rights and interests security, social security, equality and the right to development, political participation channels for the current migrant workers. This article then expounds the adverse effects of lack of social security for migrant workers on building a harmonious society: the lack of social security for migrant workers poses an enormous hidden trouble to the social stability, restricting the urbanization process in China, and hampering China's agricultural development. To improve social security for migrant workers and promote the harmonious development of society, it is necessary to adhere to "people-oriented" outlook of development, give full play to migrant workers' social creativity; implement the development strategy of comparative advantage, enhance material basis of social security for migrant workers; break the trade barriers between urban and rural areas, build unified urban-rural labor market; based on the actual situation of various regions, use hierarchical classification method to progressively improve the social security mechanism for migrant workers.

Layer- and bulk roton excitations of 4He in porous media

Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Condensed Matter (cond-mat)

description: We examine the energetics of bulk and layer-roton excitations of 4He in various porous medial such as aerogel, Geltech, or Vycor, in order to find out what conclusions can be drawn from experiments on the energetics about the physisorption mechanism. The energy of the layer-roton minimum depends sensitively on the substrate strength, thus providing a mechanism for a direct measurement of this quantity. On the other hand, bulk-like roton excitations are largely independent of the interaction between the medium and the helium atoms, but the dependence of their energy on the degree of filling reflects the internal structure of the matrix and can reveal features of 4He at negative pressures. While bulk-like rotons are very similar to their true bulk counterparts, the layer modes are not in close relation to two-dimensional rotons and should be regarded as a third, completely independent kind of excitation.

description: The economic impact of the marine economy is poorly understood at both a national and regional level in Ireland. A recent paper by estimated the economic value of the marine sector for Ireland at the national level. This paper presents a follow up analysis of the Irish marine sector at the regional level for 2007. The paper examines the impact of the marine sector in addressing regional disparities in Ireland, and the key marine sectors that drive regional economic performance within the marine sector. The analysis finds that in absolute values Dublin and the South West provide the highest levels of marine GVA, however, as a percentage of regional GVA, the marine sector is more important in the West and South West region. In terms of employment, the West and South-West provide the highest levels of marine employment, and this relationship is maintained when one examines marine employment as a percentage of regional employment. Finally, productivity rates for the sector were highest in the Dublin region. However, productivity in the marine-based sector was higher than the overall regional rate for five of the eight Irish regions.

description: Taking a thermodynamic perspective, we study the weak gravity conjecture in the context of 4D Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton theory. We find closed-form expressions for the corrected thermodynamic quantities in the presence of four-derivative terms in the action, and in particular the charge-to-mass ratio and entropy, for several families of solutions of special magnetic-to-electric charge ratio or dilaton coupling constant. Assuming that dyonic black holes themselves are the conjectured charged states, this places constraints on the Wilson coefficients of the theory which we show are satisfied under mild assumptions on the UV theory.

Iranian Nuclear Diplomacy and Nuclear non-proliferation Negotiations (2002-2015)
Creators: name: Khoshnoudiparast, Firouzeh
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2021

description: Iranian nuclear diplomacy is a fascinating, but frustrating subject. Interpreting it requires new, sophisticated tools of analysis. My PhD study goes far beyond textbooks which examine Iranian nuclear diplomacy by way of diplomatic history. It provides a comprehensive, enduring and useful framework for understanding for Iranian nuclear decision making and diplomatic patterns of behaviour. For the past two decades, Iran has exercised a distinctive combination of rigidity and flexibility in its nuclear policy. This dual nature is summarised as 'staying firm in principle but flexible in tactics'. My study applies a blend of diplomatic theories and the linkage approach to make sense of the changing dynamics of Iranian nuclear diplomacy from 2002 to 2015. It examines the effect of fundamental changes on the patterns of its external behaviour at varying individual levels and their effect on the policy choices of decision-makers. By emphasising the interactions between micro policy-making and the three dimensions of the macrostructure -symbolic, institutional and power/regime- the research examines the link between different variables affecting Iranian nuclear diplomacy and decision-makers' choices including alternatives. Such an approach provides an interdisciplinary framework for analysis and should facilitate a better understanding of the country's nuclear diplomacy, its principal characteristics, and its future directions, as well as the policy-making process itself.

It begins with an overview of the goals of New Materials Physics and then presents important ideas and techniques for the design and growth of new materials. An emphasis is placed on the use of compositional phase diagrams to inform and motivate solution growth of single crystals. The second half of this review focuses on the vital process of generating actionable ideas for the growth and discovery of new materials and ground states. Motivations ranging from (1) wanting a specific compound, to (2) wanting a specific ground state to (3) wanting to explore for known and unknown unknowns, will be discussed and illustrated with abundant examples. The goal of this review is to inform, inspire, an even entertain, as many practitioners of this field as possible.

description: A short questionnaire was devised during the 4th ISAP conference in Halifax (2011) to gather some information on the algal eating habits of the participants. Responses were also collected from random members of the general public in Galway and Copenhagen. Most phycologists had eaten algae before (93%), but few participants ate it more regularly than per month. The general public responses were similar. A probability model tested the likelihood of a participant eating algae. Neither age nor nationality significantly influenced this probability, although gender increased the probability of eating algae regularly by 9% if the participant was male (at the 90% confidence limit). As hypothesised, being a conference attendee highly significantly increased the probability of eating algae by 22%, in comparison with non-conference attendees (i.e. the general public). The type of phycological research studied also had a significant effect. Researchers working with macroalgae were 22% more likely to eat algae, whereas microalgal researchers 15% less likely to eat algae on a monthly or more regular basis. The main reasons for eating algae by both groups were ‘taste’, followed by ‘other’ (undefined) reasons. Phycologists also ate algae for the perceived ‘health benefits’, whereas few members of the general public chose this option. The difference in eating habits between the groups may be attributable to the lack of algal knowledge within the general public group.

description: An approximate analytic solution is constructed for the 2-d space charge limited emission by a cathode surrounded by non emitting conducting ledges of width Lambda. An essentially exact solution (via conformal mapping) of the electrostatic problem in vacuum is matched to the solution of a linearized problem in the space charge region whose boundaries are sharp due to the presence of a strong magnetic field. The current density growth in a narrow interval near the edges of the cathode depends strongly on Lambda. We obtain an empirical formula for the total current as a function of Lambda which extends to more general cathode geometries.

Rotational sweepback of magnetic field lines in geometrical models of pulsar radio emission

Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We study the rotational distortions of the vacuum dipole magnetic field in the context of geometrical models of the radio emission from pulsars. We find that at low altitudes the rotation deflects the local direction of the magnetic field by at most an angle of the order of r_n^2, where r_n = r/Rlc, r is the radial distance of the radio emission and Rlc is the light cylinder radius. To the second order in r_n, this distortion is symmetrical with respect to the plane containing the dipole axis and the rotation axis (Omega-mu plane). The lowest order distortion which is asymmetrical with respect to the Omega-mu plane is third order in r_n. We show, however, that the influence of the sweepback on the outer boundary of the open field line region (open volume) is a much larger effect, of the order of r_n^1/2. The open volume is shifted backwards with respect to the rotation direction by an angle delta_ov ~ 0.2 sin(alpha) r_n^1/2 where alpha is the dipole inclination with respect to the rotation axis. The associated phase shift of the pulse profile Delta_phi_ov ~ 0.2 r_n^1/2 can easily exceed the shift due to combined effects of aberration and propagation time delays (=~ 2r_n). This strongly affects the misalignment of the center of the PA curve and the center of the pulse profile, thereby modifying the delay-radius relation. Contrary to intuition, the effect of sweepback dominates over other effects when emission occurs at low altitudes. For r_n

description: In this paper, we present an extension of Shaw’s (1988) and Englin and Shonkwiler’s (1995) count data travel cost models corrected for on-site sampling to a panel data setting. We develop a panel data negative binomial count data model that corrects for endogenous stratification and truncation. We also incorporate a latent class structure into our panel specification which assumes that the observations are drawn from a finite number of segments, where the distributions differ in the intercept and the coefficients of the explanatory variables. Results of this model are compared to some of the more common modelling approached in the literature. The chosen models are applied to revealed and contingent travel data obtained from a survey of visitors to a beach on the outskirts of Galway city in Ireland. The paper argues that count data panel models corrected for on-site sampling may still be inadequate and potentially misleading if the population of interest is heterogeneous with respect to the impact of the chosen explanatory variables.

description: Recent interpretation of the color$-$magnitude diagrams of the Milky Way (MW) bulge has suggested that the observed double red-clump feature can be a natural consequence of He-enhanced stellar populations in the MW bulge. This implies that globular clusters (GCs), where the He-enhanced second-generation (SG) stars can be efficiently created, are the most likely candidate contributors of He-rich stars to the MW bulge. We extend this idea to the Galactic inner halo and investigate the fraction of the SG stars as a function of the Galactocentric distance. We use bluer blue-horizontal branch (bBHB) stars, which are assumed to be originated from He-rich SG populations, as proxies of SG stars, and find that the fraction of bBHB stars increases with decreasing Galactocentric distance. Simulations of the GC evolution in the MW tidal field qualitatively support the observed trend of bBHB enhancement in the inner halo. In these simulations, the increasing tidal force with decreasing Galactocentric distance leads to stripping of stars not only from the outskirts but also from the central regions of GCs, where SG stars are more abundant. We discuss the implication and prospect of our findings concerning the formation history of the bulge and inner halo of the MW.

description: Speech perception tests are commonly used as indices reflecting hearing ability in daily life. In Japan, the CI-2004 test, first developed in 2004, is widely used as standard, but it was not validated against a large number of normal hearing controls and hearing loss patients. The primary objective of the present study was to develop and validate iPad-based software for the Japanese monosyllable speech perception test, ‘iCI2004’. Seven universities and two medical centers participated in this study. The hearing threshold and Japanese monosyllable speech perception test results of 77 people with normal hearing and 459 people with hearing loss were collected. All participants with normal hearing achieved almost perfect perception results both in quiet and in noise. For cochlear implant users, the average monosyllable speech perception score was 55.1 ± 19.6% in quiet and 40.3 ± 19.2% in noise (SNR + 10dB). We developed iPad-based Japanese monosyllable speech perception test software and validated it by testing a large number of controls and hearing loss patients with cochlear implants or hearing aids. The developed monosyllable speech perception test has a sufficiently large dynamic range for assessing improvement in speech perception in Japanese cochlear implant users.

description: We consider a $2\times 2$ system of 1D semiclassical differential operators with two Schrödinger operators in the diagonal part and small interactions of order $h^ν$ in the off-diagonal part, where $h$ is a semiclassical parameter and $ν$ is a constant larger than $1/2$. We study the absence of resonance near a non-trapping energy for both Schrödinger operators in the presence of crossings of their potentials. The width of resonances is estimated from below by $Mh\log(1/h)$ and the coefficient $M$ is given in terms of the directed cycles of the generalized bicharacteristics induced by two Hamiltonians.

Mass Protest Mobilisation in Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan (2010-2016)
Creators: name: Pijacka, Paulina
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2021

description: This thesis seeks to uncover the background, motivations, and drivers of two mass protests that represent some of the largest instances of mass mobilisation in both number and scope in Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan (or indeed in Central Asia as a whole) in recent years. These protests took place in Kyrgyzstan in 2010 and in Kazakhstan in 2016 respectively, leading to regime change in the former and government concessions to the protesters in the latter. Explanation and analysis in this thesis stems from original data, collected in both countries on an eight-month field trip in 2017 that has enabled a detailed reconstruction of these national events. In total, eighty participants were interviewed, including members of the government and non-governmental elites, the opposition, businessmen, analysts, journalists, academics and the public. This data facilitated consideration of the micro- meso- and macro- drivers of mass protest events in the two states and expedited analysis of the nature of patron-client relations between the elites and the masses in Central Asia. In identifying what impels people to protest, this thesis concludes that patron-client relations (between the elites and the masses) were consistently used to drive mobilisation efforts in Kyrgyzstan and to a lesser extent in Kazakhstan. However, the thesis also notes the role of patronal settings in inducing mass protest in both states, and the role of horizontal ties in driving mobilisation. Thus, this work contributes to but also challenges the elite-dominated approach to the study of protests in post-Soviet societies. Further, this work theorises a three-actor model of mass mobilisation and argues that protests in factional political settings, such as those seen in contemporary Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan are largely determined by the relationships between the local leaders (termed brokers) and the local communities (referred to as clients). The thesis concludes with comparative remarks on mobilisation for mass protests in the two countries.
A new determination of the extragalactic diffuse gamma-ray background from EGRET data

description: We use the GALPROP model for cosmic-ray propagation to obtain a new estimate of the Galactic component of gamma rays, and show that away from the Galactic plane it gives an accurate prediction of the observed EGRET intensities in the energy range 30 MeV - 50 GeV. On this basis we re-evaluate the extragalactic gamma-ray background. We find that for some energies previous work underestimated the Galactic contribution at high latitudes and hence overestimated the background. Our new background spectrum shows a positive curvature similar to that expected for models of the extragalactic emission based on the blazar population.

description: The complexity of an ecological community can be distilled into a network, where diverse interactions connect species in a web of dependencies. Species interact not only with each other but indirectly through environmental effects, however the role of these ecosystem engineers has not yet been considered in models of ecological networks. Here we explore the dynamics of ecosystem assembly, where the colonization and extinction of species within a community depends on the constraints imposed by trophic, service, and engineering dependencies. We show that our assembly model reproduces many key features of ecological systems, such as the role of generalists during assembly, realistic maximum trophic levels, and increased nestedness with higher frequencies of mutualisms. We find that ecosystem engineering has large and nonlinear effects on extinction rates, facilitating robustness by creating niche space, but at the same time increasing the magnitude of extinction cascades. We emphasize the importance of redundancies in engineered effects and show that such redundancy lowers the barriers to colonization, promoting community diversity. Together, our results suggest that ecological engineers may enhance community diversity while increasing persistence by facilitating colonization and limiting competitive exclusion.

Microtubules in the Law of Observation Framework: Supporting Quantum Coherence in Consciousness
Creators: name: Sambey, Stanley Everett
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: The Law of Observation posits that reality and consciousness emerge from quantumfield interactions refined by observation, a universal process quantified by equations suchas Ω(t, x), Ω(C, ψ), and coherence parameter ξ. This paper integrates microtubules, piv-otal to the Penrose-Hameroff Orchestrated Objective Reduction (Orch OR) theory, withinthe Law of Observation framework, reinforcing their role as quantum coherence hubs whileoffering a complementary perspective on foundational concepts. Microtubules are mod-eled as high-coherence observers, with their signal modulation likened to a semi-permeablemembrane, enhanced by tryptophan’s pi resonance and autofluorescence. The Law of Ob-servation’s sleep for coherence mechanism addresses Orch OR’s challenge of maintainingquantum coherence in warm brain environments, providing a dynamic solution to decoher-ence. This synergy highlights how the Law of Observation supports and extends Orch OR’sinsights, fostering a unified approach to consciousness studies. Published under Zenodo ID:10.5281/zenodo.15237299.
Accelerating expansion of the universe may be caused by inhomogeneities

description: We point out that, due to the nonlinearity of the Einstein equations, a homogeneous approximation in cosmology leads to the appearance of an additional term in the Friedmann equation. This new term is associated with the spatial inhomogeneities of the metric and can be expressed in terms of density fluctuations. Although it is not constant, it decays much slower (as t^(-2/3)) than the other terms (like density) which decrease as t^(-2). The presence of the new term leads to a correction in the scale factor that is proportional to t^2 and may give account of the recently observed accelerating expansion of the universe without introducing a cosmological constant.

Microtubules within the Law of Observation Framework: A Quantum-Observer Perspective
Creators: name: Sambey, Stanley Everett
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: The Law of Observation posits that reality and consciousness emerge from quantum fieldinteractions refined by observation, a universal process quantified by equations such as Ω(t, x)and Ω(C, ψ). This paper integrates microtubules, central to the Penrose-Hameroff Orches-trated Objective Reduction (Orch OR) theory, within the Law of Observation framework,reinterpreting their development as observer-driven structures. Microtubules are modeled ashigh-coherence observation nodes, with their origin, role, and enhancement described usingthe coherence parameter ξ and scalable emotional responses. Contrasted with Orch OR’sbrain-specific, qualia-centric model, this framework generalizes microtubules as universalobservers, offering a broader paradigm for consciousness studies and addressing potentialacademic reluctance to engage with the Law of Observation.
X-wave mediated instability of plane waves in Kerr media
Creators: name: Conti, C.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Optics (physics.optics)

description: Plane waves in Kerr media spontaneously generate paraxial X-waves (i.e. non-dispersive and non-diffractive pulsed beams) that get amplified along propagation. This effect can be considered a form of conical emission (i.e. spatio-temporal modulational instability), and can be used as a key for the interpretation of the out of axis energy emission in the splitting process of focused pulses in normally dispersive materials. A new class of spatio-temporal localized wave patterns is identified. X-waves instability, and nonlinear X-waves, are also expected in periodical Bose condensed gases.
