description: Spectral features of a photonic crystal fiber generated supercontinuum were used in the optical read out of nanoparticle fluorescence. Three nanoparticles, in this case colloidal semiconductor quantum dots, were synthesized to produce particles with different fluorescence spectra. The quantum dots were then randomly dispersed into a polymer matrix. It was observed that three color fluorescence signals can be measured by the excitation by supercontinuum.

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Developing software engineering tools is a difficult task, and the environments in which these tools are deployed continually evolve as software developers' processes, tools and tool sets evolve. To more effectively develop such evolvable environments, we have been using component-based approaches to build and integrate a range of software development tools, including CASE and workflow tools, file servers and versioning systems, and a variety of reusable software agents. We describe the rationale for a component-based approach to developing such tools, the architecture and support tools we have used some resultant tools and tool facilities we have developed, and summarise the possible future research directions in this area.

description: In the shadow of an international outcry concerning a grotesque and speech-restrictive Polish law which would punish anyone attributing to Polish nation co-responsibility for crimes during the 2nd World War, a much more dangerous change has been quietly brought about, and just completed. A change which gives the ruling party Law and Justice (PiS) necessary mechanisms to “control” the election outcomes. To put it bluntly – a change of the electoral system which will make it possible for PiS to commit electoral fraud allowing it to stay in power, regardless of the voters’ preferences.

Wavelength multiplexed optical storage in plasmonic gold nanorods
Creators: name: Zijlstra, Peter
name: Chon, James
name: Gu, Min
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: In this paper we propose the use of wavelength as an extra recording dimension by exploiting the plasmonic properties of anisotropic gold nanorods. The wavelength of the longitudinal absorption band can be tuned from the visible to near infrared wavelength region by changing the aspect ratio of the nanorod. Data bits are recorded by femtosecond laser induced reshaping of nanorods in the focal volume. The data can be read out in transmission by monitoring the change in absorption at the recording wavelength.

Plusiocampa rybaki

description: Plusiocampa (Plusiocampa) rybaki Condé, 1956
Plusiocampa rybaki Condé, 1956a: 11.
Diagnosis
Plusiocampa (P.) rybaki was poorly described by Condé, based on specimens from three caves, one in Attica, Greece (Cave I in Rachi, northern part of Mt Ymittos) and two on Crete (Achyrospilo Cave on the Acrotiri Peninsula, Chania and Sarchos Cave, Irakleio). Troglomorphic species. Antennae with 40–44 antennomeres, large cupuliform organ with 13–21 olfactory chemoreceptors; frontal process with tubercular setae. Mesonotum with 3+3 la macrosetae, and mesonotum and metanotum with mp macrosetae. Pretarsus with large lateral crests. Urotergites V–VII with 5+5 post macrosetae.
Remarks
The specimens from Crete reported by Condé (1956a) as P. (P.) rybaki, as well as two specimens collected by P. Strinati on Crete (deposited in the Natural History Museum of Geneva on two slides labelled by B. Condé as Plusiocampa rybaki: 1 male from Melidoni Spilia, 2 Aug. 1983 and 1 female from Grotta “Sentoni”), are here considered to belong to P. (P.) hoffmanni sp. nov.

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Distributed, cooperating software agents are useful in many problem domains, such as task automation and work coordination in process-centered environments. We describe a visual language for specifying such software agents, which uses the composition of eventbased software components. These specifications may contain interfaces to remotely executing agents, and agents may be run locally or on distributed machines using a decentralized software architecture. As facilities to configure and monitor the state and activities of such distributed, cooperating software agents is essential, we provide primarily visual capabilities to achieve this. Our static and dynamic software agent visualization techniques have been used on several projects where distributed information processing, system interfacing, work coordination mad task automation axe required. We illustrate our visualization techniques with examples from these domains.

Such a focused evanescent beam is produced by a high numerical aperture objective with a central obstruction whose size satisfies the total internal reflection condition on the interface. The dependence of the lifting force on the obstruction size, the particle size, and the distance of the particle from the interface is revealed.

description: We report on a two-photon absorption-induced photoenhancement effect on a densely packed CdSe/ZnSe/ZnS core-shell semiconductor nanocrystal solid film. The enhancement is found to be irreversible without a noticeable blueshift in emission spectra, hence we attribute the enhancement to the photoannealing of interface defects rather than to the photo-oxidation or surface passivation by other molecules. The two-photon enhancement allows us to record the enhanced spots three dimensionally, hence demonstrating the feasibility of its application to multilayered optical data storage based on nanocrystal solids. © 2004 American Institute of Physics.

Three-photon excited band edge and trap emission of CdS semiconductor nanocrystals
Creators: name: Chon, James
name: Gu, Min
name: Bullen, Craig
name: Mulvaney, Paul
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: The three-photon excited band edge and trap emission of CdS semiconductor nanocrystals was studied. The band edge emission intensity was found to show a cubic dependence on excitation energy, that demonstrated a three photon absorption process, while the trap emission did not show such a cubic dependence. Using a simple theoretical model, it was suggested that the number of trap states played an important role in their emission intensity dependence of multiphoton excitation. The three photon absorption cross section of CdS nanocrystals was also measured, and found to be three to four orders of magnitude higher than those of the previously reported common UV fluorescent dyes.

It was found that due to the circular symmetric nature of illumination, the resulting evanescent wave constructively interferes at the center of the focus, and enhance the strength of the evanescent field and thereby reducing the lateral trapping size. The results confirm that this technique provides a reduced trapping volume due to the fast decaying nature of the evanescent field.

description: How should Polish judges respond, now that the Constitutional Court is being used in the day-to-day politics, and keeps delivering goods for its political masters? We have to be unequivocal here. Any future decisions taken by the „fake Court” with the “fake” judges sitting on the cases will be marred by invalidity. The ordinary judges will have a valid claim not to follow these rulings. Should they decide to follow decisions made with the participation of, or made by, “fake” judges, their own proceedings will be vitiated by invalidity.

Scanning total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy under one-photon and two-photon excitation: Image formation
Creators: name: Chon, James
name: Gu, Min
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: We propose a new type of total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy (TIRFM) called scanning TIRFM (STIRFM) that uses a focused ring-beam illumination and a high-numerical-aperture objective (NA = 1.65). The evanescent field produced by the STIRFM is focused laterally, producing a small excitation volume that can induce a nonlinear effect such as two-photon absorption. Experimental images of CdSe quantum dot nanocrystals and Rhodamine 6G-doped microbeads show that good lateral and axial resolutions are achieved with the current setup. The theoretical simulation of the focal spot produced in STIRFM geometry shows that the focused evanescent field is split into two peaks because of the depolarization effect of a high numerical-aperture objective lens. However, the point-spread function analysis of both one-photon and two-photon excitation cases shows that the detection of the focus-splitting effect is dependent on the detection pinhole size. The effect of pinhole size on image formation is theoretically investigated and confirmed experimentally with the nanocrystal images. © 2004 Optical Society of America.

description: Öffentliche Diskussionen sind kurzlebig: So schaute ganz Europa im Oktober 2016 gebannt auf das wallonische Regionalparlament, als dieses das CETA-Freihandelsabkommen mit Kanada zu blockieren drohte. Gegenwärtig besitzt der Freihandel auf unserem Kontinent mehr Freunde, was auch daran liegt, dass Donald Trump mit Schutzzöllen droht und wenig Europäer gerne dieselbe Politik verfolgen wie der US-Präsident. Mindestens ebenso wichtig wie Strafzölle auf europäischen Stahl oder amerikanischen Whisky bleibt freilich die Strukturfrage der Schiedsgerichtsbarkeit, die im Zentrum vieler Debatten um CETA und TTIP steht. Hier dürfte das jüngste EuGH-Urteil im Achmea-Verfahren sehr viel weitreichendere Folgen haben, als dies die deutsche Öffentlichkeit bislang realisierte.

Year: 2024

description: We present two-photon fluorescence near-field microscopy based on an evanescent field focus produced by a ring beam under total internal reflection. The evanescent field produced by this method is focused by a high-numerical-aperture objective, producing a tightly confined volume that can effectively induce two-photon excitation. The imaging system is characterized by the two-photon-excited images of the nanocrystals, which show that the focused evanescent field is split into two lobes because of the enhancement of the longitudinal polarization component at the focus. This feature is confirmed by the theoretical prediction. Unlike other two-photon near-field probes, this method does not have the heating effect and requires no control mechanism of the distance between a sample and the probe.
A comparative analysis of design principles for project-based IT courses
Creators: name: Grundy, John
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Project-based courses have become increasingly popular in Information Technology (IT) curricula. We have found the design of such courses needs to take into account a variety of desired learning outcomes in order to maximise the efectiveness of such courses. This paper describes four quite different project-based courses we have developed and run over several years, and are continuing to develop. We compare and contrast the different course objectives, group management, project characteristics, course content and student assessment used in these courses. We also reflect on the evolution of these courses and how feedback from diflerent kinds of course evaluation is used to continue their refinement. We have our experiences will be useful for others designing or refining their own project-based courses.

description: Effect of numerical aperture (NA) on the spectral splitting feature near phase singularities of focused waves was analyzed. The spectral splitting feature near the maximum-intensity points under polychromatic illumination existed neither in the incident polarization direction nor in the axial direction. A critical NA value in the incident polarization direction was found to be small as 0.05.

description: Although measurement error in agricultural field area and productivity data for developing countries is widely acknowledged, there is still a shortage of evidence on what the errors imply for researchers, and even less evidence on what the implications may be for farmers. In this study we investigate field size measurement errors on Zambian maize fields to examine the nature of these errors and the implications they have for: 1) our ability to understand productivity, 2) actual productivity, and 3) our broader understanding of total land use. Using a nationally representative dataset on Zambian smallholder maize plots, we compare self-reported (SR) and global positioning system (GPS) measures of land area on a farm’s largest maize plot to assess how measurement error might affect productivity estimates and farmer input use. Consistent with other studies, we find strong evidence that the land area of relatively smaller fields is overstated, and relatively larger fields is understated. However, correcting for this measurement error using GPS measurements appears to strengthen the evidence of an inverse relationship between field size and productivity. Additionally, we find strong evidence to suggest farmers themselves believe the area figures they report to enumerators and that their input use is more closely aligned with the reported field sizes than actual field sizes. Based on these results and insights from semi-structured interviews with farmers and extension agents, we argue that measurement error may affect real productivity in addition to productivity estimates. Strengthening extension efforts to improve farmer understanding of land area measurements may be an important and affordable way to improve productivity. Moreover, improving the accuracy of datacollection for area seems feasible and will improve researchers’ understanding of productivity.
Use of quantum dot nanocrystals for spectrally encoded optical data storage

description: In this paper, we demonstrate the spectral encoding capability of quantum dot nanocrystals (QDs). We mixed two different sizes of QDs in a resin, and two-photon excitation at various wavelengths showed that the relative intensities of the fluorescence from two QDs varied significantly. Such a difference in level of absorption at different wavelengths allows one to record information only on one size of QDs, without affecting the other sized QDs. This property can be applied to optical data storage, so that storage density can be greatly improved.
Identifying Mechanosensing Pathway Differences in Vein and Arterial Endothelial Cells

description: Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgeries redirect blood flow from an obstruction in a vessel in order to maintain adequate blood flow within the cardiovascular system using a graft from the saphenous vein or radial artery. Five to seven years after a CABG procedure saphenous vein grafts have a success rate of 75-86%, whereas radial artery grafts have patencies of 90-98%. Reductions in vein success rate are due to thrombosis, intimal hyperplasia, and atherosclerosis. However, on a cellular level these changes could be initiated by sensors on endothelial cell surfaces that detect changes in shear stress experienced by the cell. Thus, we hypothesized that the differences between arterial and venous endothelial cell responses to fluid shear stress mediated by mechanosensors could contribute to earlier venous patency reduction in arterial settings. Using microfluidic devices to mimic blood flow we were able to show that vein endothelial cells do not respond to fluid shear stress as effectively as arterial endothelial cells. In addition, bulk RNA sequencing data shows that the upregulation of an ion channel known as Piezo2 could cause this decrease in sensitivity in vein endothelial cells. Furthermore, knockdown and knockout of PIEZO2 in vein endothelial cells did show increased sensitivity to shear stress. The results of this study show that vein endothelial cells do not have the same mechanosensitive abilities as arterial endothelial cells; however, mechanosensitive function can be rescued by PIEZO2 knockdown. These insights could potentially be crucial in synthesizing vessel grafts that are resistant to adverse vascular pathologies thus leading to better long term outcomes for CABG and vascular disease patients.

Auf Täter verweisende Stolpersteine pervertieren die Idee des Opfergedenkens durch Stolpersteine. Sie sind historische Fußnoten im bleiernen Getriebe des Weiter-so. In der Beibehaltung der Namensgebung des Kurzkommentars kommt eine Traditionslinie der deutschen Rechtswissenschaft zum Ausdruck, die nahtlos an den Nationalsozialismus anknüpft. Erst eine Tilgung des Namens Palandt macht mit dieser Politik des zustimmenden Schweigens Schluss.
