description: The transition metal pnictide CrAs exhibits superconductivity in the vicinity of a helimagnetic phase, where it has been found that the propagation vector is parallel to the c axis and the magnetic moments lie in the ab plane. Here we use ab initio calculations to study the magnetic interactions in the material. Mapping onto a Heisenberg Hamiltonian, we calculate the magnetic exchanges by using LDA+U calculations and we unveil the origin of the magnetic frustration. Finally, we reproduce the double helix magnetic order with a propagation vector Q = (0, 0, 0.456) and we obtain the magnetic transition temperature TN through Monte-Carlo simulations of the specific heat. Due to the limitations of the use of the Heisenberg Hamiltonian for itinerant magnetic systems, the theoretical TN underestimated the experimental value of the pure CrAs. However, our results are in good agreement with those found for the alloy CrAs0.5Sb0.5 belonging to the same space group, showing that our result can describe this material class.

description: Quantum computing, which is considered the next revolution of computing technology, brings together theories of mathematics, physics, and computer science. Building a quantum computer thus requires a synthesis of knowledge and skills from multiple disciplines. In this thesis, we take a step toward bridging and connecting the full "stack" of quantum computing technology which spans across theoretical foundations, hardware architecture, software and simulation. At the foundation level, we study one of the central problems of quantum computing, namely quantum error correction, from a control-engineering perspective. This approach not only complements the conventional coding-based interpretation but also provides a potential pathway to designing self-correcting quantum computers. First, we analyse the surface-code quantum error correction under a continuous feedback-based protocol. Second, we study the fundamental question of self-correcting quantum systems using the control method of reservoir engineering. Next, we study the scalability of a generic surface code quantum computer based on spin qubits such as quantum dots and donor atoms. Solid-state qubits (quantum dots and donor atoms), especially those that are Si-based, share similarities in device structures and manufacturing processes with advanced semiconductor CMOS industry. However, scaling up those quantum devices present immense challenges related to connectivity. By applying tools and methods from the semiconductor industry, we can concretely estimate the routing limitation of a planar connectivity scheme. Finally, as part of my PhD education at the Australian National University, I took part in an industry-based research internship to develop a high-performance quantum simulator. We provide the full description of the software architecture, implementation details, and benchmarking results of the simulator.

description: Transportation safety, one of the main driving forces of the development of vehicular communication (VC) systems, relies on high-rate safety messaging (beaconing). At the same time, there is consensus among authorities, industry, and academia on the need to secure VC systems. With specific proposals in the literature, a critical question must be answered: can secure VC systems be practical and satisfy the requirements of safety applications, in spite of the significant communication and processing overhead and other restrictions security and privacy-enhancing mechanisms impose? To answer this question, we investigate in this paper the following three dimensions for secure and privacy-enhancing VC schemes: the reliability of communication, the processing overhead at each node, and the impact on a safety application. The results indicate that with the appropriate system design, including sufficiently high processing power, applications enabled by secure VC can be in practice as effective as those enabled by unsecured VC.

description: We use a ten dimensional dual string background to aspects of the physics large N four dimensional SU(N) gauge theory, where its fundamental quarks are charged under a background electric field. The theory is N=2 supersymmetric for vanishing temperature and electric field. At zero temperature, we observe that the electric field induces a phase transition associated with the dissociation of the mesons into their constituent quarks. This is an analogue of an insulator-metal transition, since the system goes from being an insulator with zero current (in the applied field) to a conductor with free charge carriers (the quarks). At finite temperature this phenomenon persists, with the dissociation transition become subsumed into the more familiar meson melting transition. Here, the dissociation phenomenon reduces the critical melting temperature.

description: We wished to improve the efficacy and safety of ketamine/xylazine anaesthesia in C57Bl/6JRj mice and achieve a surgical anaesthesia lasting 20-30 minutes, aiming at fewer anaesthesia related deaths and using the subcutaneous injection route to inflict less stress and pain on the mice. This was achieved by adding midazolam to the ketamine/xylazine anaesthesia, at dosages of 193.55 mg/kg ketamine, 4.3 mg/kg xylazine and 3.76 mg/kg midazolam. This study demonstrated that subcutaneous administration of ketamine and xylazine in combination with midazolam resulted in surgical anaesthesia for at least 25 minutes. We also confirmed that oxygen supply is necessary to maintain physiological levels of peripheral blood oxygenation in order to avoid hypoxia during ketamine/xylazine anaesthesia.

These are simulated by the introduction of delta-like interactions with the walls. We show that, with a proper choice for the corresponding coupling constants, bag-model boundary condition are properly implemented. We obtain explicit expressions for the energies in 1+1 and 3+1 dimensions, for massless and massive fields.

Collisional Growth Within the Solar System's Primordial Planetesimal Disk and the Timing of the Giant Planet Instability

description: The large scale structure of the Solar System has been shaped by a transient dynamical instability that may have been triggered by the interaction of the giants planets with a massive primordial disk of icy debris. In this work, we investigate the conditions under which this primordial disk could have coalesced into planets using analytic and numerical calculations. In particular, we perform numerical simulations of the Solar System's early dynamical evolution that account for the viscous stirring and collisional damping within the disk. We demonstrate that if collisional damping would have been sufficient to maintain a temperate velocity dispersion, Earth mass trans-Neptunian planets could have emerged within a timescale of 10 Myr. Therefore, our results favor a scenario wherein the dynamical instability of the outer Solar System began immediately upon the dissipation of the gaseous nebula to avoid the overproduction of Earth mass planets in the outer Solar System.

description: We present a systematic study of line widths in the [\ion{O}{3}]$λ$5007 and H$α$ lines for a sample of 86 planetary nebulae in the Milky Way bulge based upon spectroscopy obtained at the \facility{Observatorio Astronómico Nacional in the Sierra San Pedro Mártir (OAN-SPM)} using the Manchester Echelle Spectrograph. The planetary nebulae were selected with the intention of simulating samples of bright extragalactic planetary nebulae. We separate the planetary nebulae into two samples containing cooler and hotter central stars, defined by the absence or presence, respectively, of the \ion{He}{2} $λ$6560 line in the H$α$ spectra. This division separates samples of younger and more evolved planetary nebulae. The sample of planetary nebulae with hotter central stars has systematically larger line widths, larger radii, lower electron densities, and lower H$β$ luminosities. The distributions of these parameters in the two samples all differ at significance levels exceeding 99%. These differences are all in agreement with the expectations from hydrodynamical models, but for the first time confirmed for a homogeneous and statistically significant sample of galactic planetary nebulae. We interpret these differences as evidence for the acceleration of the nebular shells during the early evolution of these intrinsically bright planetary nebulae. As is the case for planetary nebulae in the Magellanic Clouds, the acceleration of the nebular shells appears to be the direct result of the evolution of the central stars.

description: Gesture recognition is getting more and more popular due to various application possibilities in human-machine interaction. Existing multi-modal gesture recognition systems take multi-modal data as input to improve accuracy, but such methods require more modality sensors, which will greatly limit their application scenarios. Therefore we propose an end-to-end multi-task learning framework in training 2D convolutional neural networks. The framework can use the depth modality to improve accuracy during training and save costs by using only RGB modality during inference. Our framework is trained to learn a representation for multi-task learning: gesture segmentation and gesture recognition. Depth modality contains the prior information for the location of the gesture. Therefore it can be used as the supervision for gesture segmentation. A plug-and-play module named Multi-Scale-Decoder is designed to realize gesture segmentation, which contains two sub-decoder. It is used in the lower stage and higher stage respectively, and can help the network pay attention to key target areas, ignore irrelevant information, and extract more discriminant features. Additionally, the MSD module and depth modality are only used in the training stage to improve gesture recognition performance. Only RGB modality and network without MSD are required during inference. Experimental results on three public gesture recognition datasets show that our proposed method provides superior performance compared with existing gesture recognition frameworks. Moreover, using the proposed plug-and-play MSD in other 2D CNN-based frameworks also get an excellent accuracy improvement.

Such surface waves exist due to the interplay between repulsion from the interface and the defocusing thermal nonlinearity that deflect light beams from the bulk of the medium toward its edges.

description: We propose Uncertainty Augmented Context Attention network (UACANet) for polyp segmentation which consider a uncertain area of the saliency map. We construct a modified version of U-Net shape network with additional encoder and decoder and compute a saliency map in each bottom-up stream prediction module and propagate to the next prediction module. In each prediction module, previously predicted saliency map is utilized to compute foreground, background and uncertain area map and we aggregate the feature map with three area maps for each representation. Then we compute the relation between each representation and each pixel in the feature map. We conduct experiments on five popular polyp segmentation benchmarks, Kvasir, CVC-ClinicDB, ETIS, CVC-ColonDB and CVC-300, and achieve state-of-the-art performance. Especially, we achieve 76.6% mean Dice on ETIS dataset which is 13.8% improvement compared to the previous state-of-the-art method.

Using an analytical mesoscopic approach it is shown that plasma balls of fire belong to the same class of Turing structures like the Brusselator. It is also mathematically proved that the existence of these self-organized plasma structures is related with a negative differential resistance. There are also established the mathematical conditions which the negative differential resistance must satisfy for obtaining a stationary ball of fire at the anode of a plasma diode.

description: Wireless communication enables a broad spectrum of applications, ranging from commodity to tactical systems. Neighbor discovery (ND), that is, determining which devices are within direct radio communication, is a building block of network protocols and applications, and its vulnerability can severely compromise their functionalities. A number of proposals to secure ND have been published, but none have analyzed the problem formally. In this paper, we contribute such an analysis: We build a formal model capturing salient characteristics of wireless systems, most notably obstacles and interference, and we provide a specification of a basic variant of the ND problem. Then, we derive an impossibility result for a general class of protocols we term "time-based protocols," to which many of the schemes in the literature belong. We also identify the conditions under which the impossibility result is lifted. Moreover, we explore a second class of protocols we term "time- and location-based protocols," and prove they can secure ND.

description: The EC report, Alcohol in Europe. A public health perspective (Anderson & Baumberg, 2006),

considered unrecorded alcohol as a dimension of the economic and public health impact of

alcohol in Europe. Based on Hvalkof & Anderson (1995), the report defined unrecorded alcohol

consumption as “alcohol consumption which is not reflected in official statistics on alcohol

consumption”.

Although unrecorded consumption is by its nature difficult to measure, WHO figures (Rehm et

al., 2004) show that illicit and cross-border consumptions seem to be highest in eastern Europe

(particularly the Baltic countries, Bulgaria and Slovenia). Based on a tentative estimate of trends

in unrecorded consumption, such consumption has been increasing since the mid-1970s in the

Nordic countries and the United Kingdom while remaining stable elsewhere in the countries

belonging to the EU before May 2004 (Leifman, 2001). No information on trends was available

in the countries joining the EU in May 2004.

This package also allows the analysis of relevant properties of those resonances such as the wave functions at the origin, their corresponding derivatives for l \neq 0 states, typical heavy quark velocities, and mean square radii. Besides, it includes a tool to analize the spin-dependent contributions to the heavy quarkonia spectrum, providing the hyperfine splittings, as well as the nPJ energy levels. Finally, a simple software implemented in QQ-onia to compute E1 transition rates is presented.

description: [ABRIDGED]We study the carbon abundances with a twofold objective. On the one hand, we want to evaluate the behaviour of carbon in the context of Galactic chemical evolution. On the other hand, we focus on the possible dependence of carbon abundances on the presence of planets and on the impact of various factors (such as different oxygen lines) on the determination of C/O elemental ratios. We derived chemical abundances of carbon from two atomic lines for 757 FGK stars in the HARPS-GTO sample. The abundances were derived with the code MOOG using automatically measured EWs and a grid of Kurucz ATLAS9 atmospheres. Oxygen abundances, derived using different lines, were taken from previous papers in this series and updated with the new stellar parameters. We find that thick- and thin-disk stars are chemically disjunct for [C/Fe] across the full metallicity range that they have in common. Moreover, the population of high-$α$ metal-rich stars also presents higher and clearly separated [C/Fe] ratios than thin-disk stars up to [Fe/H]\,$\sim$\,0.2\,dex. The [C/O] ratios present a general flat trend as a function of [O/H] but this trend becomes negative when considering stars of similar metallicity. We find tentative evidence that stars with low-mass planets at lower metallicities have higher [C/Fe] ratios than stars without planets at the same metallicity, in the same way as has previously been found for $α$ elements. Finally, the elemental C/O ratios for the vast majority of our stars are below 0.8 when using the oxygen line at 6158A however, the forbidden oxygen line at 6300A provides systematically higher C/O values. Moreover, by using different atmosphere models the C/O ratios can have a non negligible difference for cool stars. Therefore, C/O ratios should be scaled to a common solar reference in order to correctly evaluate its behaviour.

description: While closed timelike curves (CTCs) are not known to exist, studying their consequences has led to nontrivial insights in general relativity, quantum information, and other areas. In this paper we show that if CTCs existed, then quantum computers would be no more powerful than classical computers: both would have the (extremely large) power of the complexity class PSPACE, consisting of all problems solvable by a conventional computer using a polynomial amount of memory. This solves an open problem proposed by one of us in 2005, and gives an essentially complete understanding of computational complexity in the presence of CTCs. Following the work of Deutsch, we treat a CTC as simply a region of spacetime where a "causal consistency" condition is imposed, meaning that Nature has to produce a (probabilistic or quantum) fixed-point of some evolution operator. Our conclusion is then a consequence of the following theorem: given any quantum circuit (not necessarily unitary), a fixed-point of the circuit can be (implicitly) computed in polynomial space. This theorem might have independent applications in quantum information.

description: In this paper we study further when tangles embed into the unknot, the unlink or a split link. In particular, we study obstructions to these properties through geometric characterizations, tangle sums and colorings. As an application we determine when each prime 2-string tangle with up to seven crossings embeds into the unknot, the unlink or a split link.

description: Recently, Cardoso et al. [arXiv:2109.00005] found an exact solution describing the black hole immersed in a galactic-like distribution of matter. There, the properties of gravitational radiation were studied. Here we continue analysis of properties of this geometry via consideration of the electromagnetic radiation. We calculate quasinormal modes, asymptotic tails and grey-body factors for electromagnetic radiation. In addition, we discuss the Unruh temperature for this spacetime. Estimations made in the regime which is best fitting the galaxies behavior show that influence of the environment on classical and quantum radiation around such black holes must be relatively small.

description: We present a photometric analysis of four galaxies classified as compact elliptical (cE) galaxies in the FS90 Antlia Group catalogue. Only 6 members of this rare type of galaxies are known until now. Using data in various photometric systems, we measured brightness and colour profiles, as well as structural parameters. By comparing them with those of other galaxies in the Antlia cluster, as well as with confirmed cE galaxies from the literature, we found that two of the FS90 cE candidates, albeit being spectroscopically confirmed Antlia members, are not cE galaxies. However, one of these objects presents strong ellipticity and position angle variations that resemble those already reported for M32, leading us to speculate about this kind of objects being progenitors of cE galaxies. The other two FS90 cE candidates, for which radial velocities are not available, match some features typical of cE galaxies like being close in projection to a larger galaxy, displaying flat colour profiles, and having a high degree of compactness. Only one of the remaining cE candidates shows a high central surface brightness, two components in its brightness profile, distinct changes in ellipticity and position angle where the outer component begins to dominate, and seems to follow the same trend as other confirmed cE galaxies in a luminosity versus mean effective surface brightness diagram. Moreover, it shows a distorted inner structure with similar characteristics to those found by simulations of interacting galaxies, and an extremely faint structure that seems to link this object with one of the Antlia dominant galaxies, has been detected in MOSAIC-CTIO, FORS1-VLT, and ACS-HST images. The cE nature of this galaxy as well as the possible interaction with its bright companion, still have to be confirmed through spectroscopy.

description: The genus Pinus represents more than a hundred different tree species, most of them forming stems that can be commercially utilised for both timber and wood pulp industry. Pines are native to most of the Northern Hemisphere, while introduced and often naturalized in the Southern Hemisphere. The sapwood of pines is considered ‘not durable’ but generally easy to impregnate. On the contrary, the coloured heartwood of pines is difficult to impregnate and considered ‘less to moderately durable’ against decay fungi, but due to varying content and composition of extractives, both moisture performance and inherent durability vary within and between species. This study reviewed the literature to quantify the extent of variability of pine wood and its potential causes. Literature data from durability tests performed under laboratory and field conditions made it possible to compile reference factors for 26 pine species. The inter-species variation of biological durability is more prominent in above-ground exposure (0.7–14.9 times higher compared to the non-durable pine sapwood) compared to soil contact scenarios (1.0–2.4). The latter might be explained by fungicidal and hydrophobic extractives of pines, which play a more dominant role in above-ground exposure compared to soil exposure with permanent wetting.
A housing market model for the metropolitan area of Ottawa-Hull
Creators: name: Miller, Richard Douglas
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Much of the literature on the residential building industry pertains to studies that aggregate the national production of housing. Since land development, including housing, is restricted to a particular place, the author has attempted to model a local housing market and to estimate the relationship between the production of ground-oriented housing units in a specified market area and certain specified factors postulated to affect the supply and demand of the commodity. The housing market model has been based on the assumption that the number of dwelling starts responds proportionally to the desired number of units under construction, the opening level of such an inventory, and the number of completions. With respect to the desired number of dwelling units under construction, particular attention has been made to the estimation of the potential profitability of developing houses as well as the severity of credit conditions. An hypothesis was made of the effect of credit availability, or non-price credit terms, on housing starts; and, a model of the supply of new ground-oriented housing has been postulated with optional specifications for a credit conditions variable to identify the relationship with the important determining variables and to determine the effect of credit availability. The model was tested with estimates for all the dependent and determining variables for the Ottawa-Hull Metropolitan Area. Specifications of the model have been applied to data covering the period from 1968 to 1977, and multiple regression techniques have been used to estimate the coefficients of the explanatory variables. The performance of the housing starts model, including the use of the credit conditions variables, has been assessed on the basis of a number of measurements of the goodness of fit over the original ten year period as well as the following two year period (1978 and 1979). The testing of the housing starts model appeared to confirm the hypothesis that given a level of profitableness of developing land and the investment required per unit, developers would desire to maintain a certain number of units under construction. The study was generally successful in showing the relationship between the number of housing starts, in a limited market area, and the major determining variables attributed to the local and national economic environment. The credit conditions variables used appeared to successfully indicate the effect of the price and availability of credit, but there was little convincing evidence to support the hypothesis of the symmetric effect of credit availability in favour of a hypothesis of the asymmetric effect.
Understanding the relation between oncoprotein DEK and chromatin organisation in breast
Creators: name: Pierzynska-Mach, Agnieszka

description: DEK protein is a ubiquitous nuclear factor that has been consistently associated with tumour progression. Its overexpression in cancer cells raises the possibility of using DEK as a tumour marker. It is also an architectural chromatin factor that influences gene activity. This work aims to investigate the spatial correlation between the organization of DEK oncoprotein and the local chromatin structure depending on the degree of cell malignancy. Methods: The study is based on dual-colour confocal and STED (STimulated Emission Depletion) super-resolution microscopy images obtained by immunolabelling of DEK and active/inactive chromatin epigenetic markers and RNA-FISH technique in human model breast cancer cell lines. Dynamics of DEK protein was obtained thanks to 12h time-lapses of breast cancer living cell. Results: We show the differences of the nanoscale distribution of DEK in relation to chromatin organisation pattern. Live-cell imaging enabled observation of formation of DEK protein bodies necessary for the DNA replication process in close proximity of inactive genes in normal-like breast cells. This study provides novel insights into the tumour-promoting activity of DEK, its role in crucial cellular processes such as DNA replication and gene regulation and thus makes a progress of our understanding of basic mechanisms of carcinogenesis.
Shell States of Neutron Rich Matter

description: The equation of state (EOS) for nuclear and neutron rich matter is investigated in a Relativistic Mean Field (RMF) model. New shell states are found that minimize the free energy per baryon, calculated in a spherical Wigner-Seitz (WS) approximation, over a significant range of baryon densities. These shell states, that have both inside and outside surfaces, minimize the Coulomb energy of large proton number configurations at the expense of a larger surface energy. This is related to a possible depression in the central density of super heavy nuclei. As the baryon density increases, we find the system changes from normal nuclei, to shell states, and then to uniform matter.

description: The aim of this paper was to determine the moisture desorption isotherms and certain thermodynamic properties of Eucalyptus gomphocephala wood using the static gravimetric method at five temperatures: 40°C, 50°C, 60°C, 70°C and 80°C, and relative humidity ranging from 5% to 90%. A “thermodynamic” equation was selected to describe the desorption isotherms under controlled conditions. Desorption isotherms were a “type II” sigmoid. The Clausius–Clapeyron relationship was applied to determine the isosteric heat of desorption. Results showed that for equilibrium moisture content less than 6%, the differential enthalpy and entropy decreased with increasing moisture content according to an exponential law from 26 to 0.5 kJ/mol and from 44 to 0.16 J/(mol K), respectively. The difference in isokinetic and harmonic temperature confirmed the enthalpy-entropy compensation theory of desorption reaction. The negative value of Gibbs free energy (−208.2 kJ/mol) indicated the spontaneous wood-water desorption reaction. Spreading pressure decreased with increasing temperature from 1 J/m² at 40°C to 0.16 J/m² at 80°C and increased with increasing water activity with the rate of 0.014% J/m² per relative humidity.
