description: One of the most important properties of a galaxy is the total stellar mass, or equivalently the stellar mass-to-light ratio (M/L). It is not directly observable, but can be estimated from stellar population synthesis. Currently, a galaxy's M/L is typically estimated from global fluxes. For example, a single global g - i colour correlates well with the stellar M/L. Spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting can make use of all available fluxes and their errors to make a Bayesian estimate of the M/L. We want to investigate the possibility of using morphology information to assist predictions of M/L. Our first goal is to develop and train a method that only requires a g-band image and redshift as input. This will allows us to study the correlation between M/L and morphology. Next, we can also include the i-band flux, and determine if morphology provides additional constraints compared to a method that only uses g- and i-band fluxes. We used a machine learning pipeline that can be split in two steps. First, we detected morphology features with a convolutional neural network. These are then combined with redshift, pixel size and g-band luminosity features in a gradient boosting machine. Our training target was the M/L acquired from the GALEX-SDSS-WISE Legacy Catalog, which uses global SED fitting and contains galaxies with z ~ 0.1. Morphology is a useful attribute when no colour information is available, but can not outperform colour methods on its own. When we combine the morphology features with global g- and i-band luminosities, we find an improved estimate compared to a model which does not make use of morphology. While our method was trained to reproduce global SED fitted M/L, galaxy morphology gives us an important additional constraint when using one or two bands. Our framework can be extended to other problems to make use of morphological information.

description: We show how to construct states for which a Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger type paradox occurs if each party measures either the position or momentum of his particle. The paradox can be ascribed to the anticommutation of certain translation operators in phase space. We then rephrase the paradox in terms of modular and binary variables. The origin of the paradox is then due to the fact that the associativity of addition of modular variables is true only for c-numbers but does not hold for operators.

description: Wearable wireless sensors are a part of human life in the future for applications such as healthcare, sports, navigating, security etc. The number of wearable wireless sensors for fitness and healthcare applications will reach 90 million shipments by 2017 base on ABI research report [1]. The IEEE Standard 802.15.6 for local and metropolitan area networks, part 15.6, “Wireless Body Area Networks” was published on February 2012 to specify the short range wireless communication in the vicinity or inside of the human body [2]. This shows the importance of research needed to maximize the quality of wireless communications around the body. The human body is a lossy medium that absorbs the radio frequency (RF) energy and this affects the propagation of electromagnetic waves used in wireless communication. The specific absorption rate (SAR) is defined by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to identify criteria for measuring the rate of absorption and amount of interaction between the body and a source of RF energy [3].

description: We consider production of additional relativistic particles coupled to the inflaton. We show that the imprints of these particles on the spectrum of primordial perturbations can be used for the direct measurement of the speed of sound of scalar perturbations, regardless of the mechanism of the production of this species. We study a model where these relativistic localized sources are decay products of heavier particles generated via a resonance mechanism. These particles emit in-phase inflaton particles which interfere constructively on the the so-called sound boom, leading to an "inflationary Cherenkov effect". The resulting shock waves lead to distinctive patterns on the temperature anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background. Moreover, we show that the model predicts unique features on the power spectrum of curvature perturbation and sizeable flattened non-gaussianity for a suitable range of parameters.

description: Current neural network-based conversational models lack diversity and generate boring responses to open-ended utterances. Priors such as persona, emotion, or topic provide additional information to dialog models to aid response generation, but annotating a dataset with priors is expensive and such annotations are rarely available. While previous methods for improving the quality of open-domain response generation focused on either the underlying model or the training objective, we present a method of filtering dialog datasets by removing generic utterances from training data using a simple entropy-based approach that does not require human supervision. We conduct extensive experiments with different variations of our method, and compare dialog models across 17 evaluation metrics to show that training on datasets filtered this way results in better conversational quality as chatbots learn to output more diverse responses.

description: We propose a realizable experimental scheme to prepare superposition of the vacuum and one-photon states by truncating an input coherent state. The scheme is based on the quantum scissors device proposed by Pegg, Phillips, and Barnett [Phys. Rev. Lett. 81, 1604 (1998)] and uses photon-counting detectors, a single-photon source, and linear optical elements. Realistic features of the photon counting and single-photon generation are taken into account and possible error sources are discussed together with their effect on the fidelity and efficiency of the truncation process. Wigner function and phase distribution of the generated states are given and discussed for the evaluation of the proposed scheme.

title: Impact and Documentary Filmmaking: Ethical Reflections On A Practice Based Study

Publisher: name: Griffith University

Subjects: subject: Documentary films
subject: Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
subject: Ethics
subject: Impact

description: In this exegesis I examine my creative project, a series of seven short documentary films entitled The Ripple Effect of PTSD (Melzer 2016a), and its impact on community, on the film participants, and on me as a filmmaker. The films document the experience of caregivers and family members of veterans with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). The exegesis is framed by the literature on ethics and documentary film. In the first data chapter, I detail the work of building a community for my films, engaging with impact partners and producing a series of educational videos about PTSD. Also catalogued in this chapter is the success of the films. They were selected for film festivals, elicited positive feedback from the general public and were shared multiple times online. The following chapter discusses the impact of the creative project on the participants, highlighting their agency and empowerment as well as vulnerabilities. The discussion reveals the complex and multifaceted nature of power in documentary filmmaking. From impact on participants I move to consider the impact of the filmmaking process on me as a filmmaker drawing on the notions of ‘vicarious trauma’ and ‘emotion work/emotional labour’. I demonstrate that the fraught subject matter of the films, the distress of participants, and my novice status as a filmmaker exposed me to vicarious trauma. I further explain how different aspects of the filmmaking process, such as accessing and interviewing participants, and negotiating with the military, necessitated significant emotional labour. In the concluding chapter of the exegesis I highlight the key findings of research. Of particular importance is my illumination of the emotional dimensions of film production. I argue that quality documentary production requires significant emotional labour on behalf of a filmmaker, but the implications of this emotion work are rarely acknowledged in the literature. As such, I argue for the importance of expanding documentary filmmaking and ethics research to include a focus on the emotional health and wellbeing of the filmmaker.

description: Double-pair emission from type-II parametric down conversion results in a highly entangled 4-photon state. Due to interference, which is similar to bunching from thermal emission, this state is not simply a product of two pairs. The observation of this state can be achieved by splitting the two emission modes at beam splitters and subsequent detection of a photon in each output. Here we describe the features of this state and give a Bell theorem for a 4-photon test of local realistic hidden variable theories.

description: Do cool-core (CC) and noncool-core (NCC) clusters live in different environments? We make novel use of H$α$ emission lines in the central galaxies of redMaPPer clusters as proxies to construct large (1,000's) samples of CC and NCC clusters, and measure their relative assembly bias using both clustering and weak lensing. We increase the statistical significance of the bias measurements from clustering by cross-correlating the clusters with an external galaxy redshift catalog from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey III, the LOWZ sample. Our cross-correlations can constrain assembly bias up to a statistical uncertainty of 6%. Given our H$α$ criteria for CC and NCC, we find no significant differences in their clustering amplitude. Interpreting this difference as the absence of halo assembly bias, our results rule out the possibility of having different large-scale (tens of Mpc) environments as the source of diversity observed in cluster cores. Combined with recent observations of the overall mild evolution of CC and NCC properties, such as central density and CC fraction, this would suggest that either the cooling properties of the cluster core are determined early on solely by the local (<200 kpc) gas properties at formation or that local merging leads to stochastic CC relaxation and disruption in a periodic way, preserving the average population properties over time. Studying the small-scale clustering in clusters at high redshift would help shed light on the exact scenario.

description: We consider a generalized quantum teleportation protocol for an unknown qubit using non-maximally entangled state as a shared resource. Without recourse to local filtering or entanglement concentration, using standard Bell-state measurement and classical communication one cannot teleport the state with unit fidelity and unit probability. We show that using non-maximally entangled measurements one can teleport an unknown state with unit fidelity albeit with reduced probability, hence probabilistic teleportation. We also give a generalized protocol for entanglement swapping using non-maximally entangled states.

To probe the RG flow backgrounds at zero and finite temperatures we calculate the minimal surfaces of the corresponding string worldsheets. We show that a holographic RG flow at $T=0$, that mimics QCD behaviour of the running coupling, has a confining phase at long distances, while the RG flow with an AdS UV fixed point is non-confining.

description: Evaluating employee performance in organizations with varying workloads and tasks is challenging. Specifically, it is important to understand how quantitative measurements of employee achievements relate to supervisor expectations, what the main drivers of good performance are, and how to combine these complex and flexible performance evaluation metrics into an accurate portrayal of organizational performance in order to identify shortcomings and improve overall productivity. To facilitate this process, we summarize common organizational performance analyses into four visual exploration task categories. Additionally, we develop MetricsVis, a visual analytics system composed of multiple coordinated views to support the dynamic evaluation and comparison of individual, team, and organizational performance in public safety organizations. MetricsVis provides four primary visual components to expedite performance evaluation: (1) a priority adjustment view to support direct manipulation on evaluation metrics; (2) a reorderable performance matrix to demonstrate the details of individual employees; (3) a group performance view that highlights aggregate performance and individual contributions for each group; and (4) a projection view illustrating employees with similar specialties to facilitate shift assignments and training. We demonstrate the usability of our framework with two case studies from medium-sized law enforcement agencies and highlight its broader applicability to other domains.

Wela wang: technologies, markets, and morals in Thai leisure culture, 1830s - 1932
Creators: name: Hongsaton, Preedee
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2015

description: This thesis traces how the concept of leisure (wela wang) emerged in Siamese/Thai society during the period 1830s-1932. The rise of the Western-dominated world order from the early nineteenth century brought drastic changes to Siam, and the Siamese aristocratic elites responded to this new order strategically. These changes did not only occur in the political and economic spheres, but also in the cultural and intellectual dimensions of the Siamese society. This study analyses three closely imbricated aspects of social processes that provided the foundations for Siamese leisure culture to emerge. Firstly, the impact of new technology upon Siam's cultural sphere is considered. The adoption of the twenty-four hour mechanical clock and the Western calendar were two determining factors for the creation of the work/non-work time binary in Siamese society. Leisure time, in this aspect, was the time that was clocked and calendared. No less important, however, this study also shows that reforms in Buddhist calendrical calculation also contributed significantly to the separation of work from leisure, and without reform the process would not have been completed. The second crucial aspect of Siamese leisure culture is the role of the market. The expansion of the market economy in Siam from the middle of the nineteenth century led to the commodification of both work time and leisure time. It is argued that the market economy impacted as much upon leisure as upon work, and economic processes turned leisure activities into commodities. This new leisure economy, in turn, also became one of the most important sources of revenue for the absolutist Siamese state. The third aspect of Siamese leisure culture studied here is its subjection to Buddhist moralising discourses. For the absolutist state, leisure time had to be spent "productively" (hai pen prayot). The meaning of "productive" leisure time included the senses of both economically and morally useful employment of one's time. These both sides of Siamese leisure culture coexisted uneasily, and in tension with the state's need of revenue from the morally dubious leisure activities such as gambling and drinking. Two lines of dialectically related forms of inquiry are considered through this thesis. One is the attempt to trace the genealogy of the concept of wela wang (free time), and how this idea was contested and negotiated during the period of focus. The second related line of enquiry is a look at the meanings and practices of leisure activities, which will be portrayed through the lens of social and cultural history. This thesis focuses on case studies of dance-drama, "leisure plazas" (new urban spaces of markets, transport hubs, gambling houses, pawn shops, liquor stores, opium houses, and brothels), sports, and foreign and Siamese clubs to show how leisure was not peripheral, but in fact integral to the emergence of modern Siam.

title: The Role of Elite Sport Policies, Pathways and Inter-Organisational Relationships in Developing Elite Tennis Players

description: Many countries globally support and continuously seek ways to achieve and sustain elite athlete success. Governments spend significant sums of public or government controlled funding in elite sport to improve or maintain success at the international level. However, elite athlete development is the result of a combination of elite sport policies, athlete development pathways and interactions between various stakeholders that are involved in the delivery of athlete development pathways. These factors make elite athlete development a complex, multi-layered and multi-faceted field of study that necessitates specific research efforts that focus on how these factors contribute to elite athlete development in specific sports. This thesis examines these factors and progresses from a macro-level examination of broad international policies to a meso-level exploration of specific strategies for player development pathways. Then, it moves into a micro-level analysis of the inter-organisational relationships (IORs) between tennis clubs and a tennis federation. Three studies were used to undertake these examinations and shape the body of this thesis.
The detection of neutron clusters

description: A new approach to the production and detection of bound neutron clusters is presented. The technique is based on the breakup of beams of very neutron-rich nuclei and the subsequent detection of the recoiling proton in a liquid scintillator. The method has been tested in the breakup of 11Li, 14Be and 15B beams by a C target. Some 6 events were observed that exhibit the characteristics of a multineutron cluster liberated in the breakup of 14Be, most probably in the channel 10Be+4n. The various backgrounds that may mimic such a signal are discussed in detail.

description: Among the several approaches that have been attempted at studying opinion dynamics, the Sznajd model provides some particularly interesting features, such as its simplicity and ability to represent some of the mechanisms believed to be involved in opinion dynamics. The standard Sznajd model at zero temperature is characterized by converging to one stable state, implying null diversity of opinions. In the present work, we develop an approach -- namely the adaptive Sznajd model -- in which changes of opinion by an individual (i.e. a network node) implies in possible alterations in the network topology. This is accomplished by allowing agents to change their connections preferentially to other neighbors with the same state. The diversity of opinions along time is quantified in terms of the exponential of the entropy of the opinions density. Several interesting results are reported, including the possible formation of echo chambers or social bubbles. Additionally, depending on the parameters configuration, the dynamics may converge to different equilibrium states for the same parameter setting, which suggests that this phenomenon can be a phase transition. The average degree of the network strongly influences the resultant opinion distribution, which means that echo chambers are easily formed in lower connected systems.

description: There is an increasing demand for scientists to make the results of their research available for scrutiny by members of the public, and for scientists to demystify science. In response to this pressure, research organisations are adopting a variety of methods to communicate with the public. One approach taken by CSIRO in the mid 1990s was to build a multipurpose building, the Discovery Centre, which incorporated an exhibition, an education centre, and laboratories that featured floor to ceiling glass walls so visitors could view researchers at work. This sub-thesis documents the design phase of the Discovery building and looks at how the researchers feel about working in a ‘lab-in-view’ laboratory. It also addresses some aspects of internal communication between researchers in Discovery laboratories. The impact of being more or less in view of the public was identified as well as the role of increased contact for informal communication opportunities afforded by the convenient location of the cafe. Opportunities for further research are also identified.

Quantum-Classical Correspondence for the Equilibrium Distributions of Two Interacting Spins

Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: We consider the quantum and classical Liouville dynamics of a non-integrable model of two coupled spins. Initially localised quantum states spread exponentially to the system dimension when the classical dynamics are chaotic. The long-time behaviour of the quantum probability distributions and, in particular, the parameter-dependent rates of relaxation to the equilibrium state are surprisingly well approximated by the classical Liouville mechanics even for small quantum numbers. As the accessible classical phase space becomes predominantly chaotic, the classical and quantum probability equilibrium configurations approach the microcanonical distribution, although the quantum equilibrium distributions exhibit characteristic `minimum' fluctuations away from the microcanonical state. The magnitudes of the quantum-classical differences arising from the equilibrium quantum fluctuations are studied for both pure and mixed (dynamically entangled) quantum states. In both cases the standard deviation of these fluctuations decreases as $(\hbar/{\mathcal J})^{1/2}$, where ${\mathcal J}$ is a measure of the system size. In conclusion, under a variety of conditions the differences between quantum and classical Liouville mechanics are shown to become vanishingly small in the classical limit (${\mathcal J}/\hbar \to \infty$) of a non-dissipative model endowed with only a few degrees of freedom.

description: This paper addresses the so-called inverse problem which consists in searching for (possibly multiple) parent target Hamiltonian(s), given a single quantum state as input. Starting from $Ψ_0$, an eigenstate of a given local Hamiltonian $\mathcal{H}_0$, we ask whether or not there exists another parent Hamiltonian $\mathcal{H}_\mathrm{P}$ for $Ψ_0$, with the same local form as $\mathcal{H}_0$. Focusing on one-dimensional quantum disordered systems, we extend the recent results obtained for Bose-glass ground states [M. Dupont and N. Laflorencie, Phys. Rev. B 99, 020202(R) (2019)] to Anderson localization, and the many-body localization (MBL) physics occurring at high energy. We generically find that any localized eigenstate is a very good approximation for an eigenstate of a distinct parent Hamiltonian, with an energy variance $σ_\mathrm{P}^2(L)=\langle\mathcal{H}_\mathrm{P}^2\rangle_{Ψ_0}-\langle\mathcal{H}_\mathrm{P}\rangle_{Ψ_0}^2$ vanishing as a power law of system size $L$. This decay is microscopically related to a chain-breaking mechanism, also signalled by bottlenecks of vanishing entanglement entropy. A similar phenomenology is observed for both Anderson and MBL. In contrast, delocalized ergodic many-body eigenstates uniquely encode the Hamiltonian in the sense that $σ_\mathrm{P}^2(L)$ remains finite at the thermodynamic limit, i.e., $L\to+\infty$. As a direct consequence, the ergodic-MBL transition can be very well captured from the scaling of $σ_\mathrm{P}^2(L)$.
