description: We present the Large Area Radio Galaxy Evolution Spectroscopic Survey (LARGESS), a spectroscopic catalogue of radio sources designed to include the full range of radio AGN populations out to redshift z = 0.8. The catalogue covers roughly 800 square degrees of sky, and provides optical identifications for 19,179 radio sources from the 1.4 GHz Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty-cm (FIRST) survey down to an optical magnitude limit of i_mod < 20.5 in Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) images. Both galaxies and point-like objects are included, and no colour cuts are applied. In collaboration with the WiggleZ and Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) spectroscopic survey teams, we have obtained new spectra for over 5,000 objects in the LARGESS sample. Combining these new spectra with data from earlier surveys provides spectroscopic data for 12,329 radio sources in the survey area, of which 10,856 have reliable redshifts. 85% of the LARGESS spectroscopic sample are radio AGN (median redshift z = 0.44), and 15% are nearby star-forming galaxies (median z = 0.08). Low-excitation radio galaxies (LERGs) comprise the majority (83%) of LARGESS radio AGN at z < 0.8, with 12% being high-excitation radio galaxies (HERGs) and 5% radio-loud QSOs. Unlike the more homogeneous LERG and QSO sub-populations, HERGs are a heterogeneous class of objects with relatively blue optical colours and a wide dispersion in mid-infrared colours. This is consistent with a picture in which most HERGs are hosted by galaxies with recent or ongoing star formation as well as a classical accretion disk.

description: In the last decades we gained a much deeper knowledge about the historical context of Slavic unity.This unity was first of all of a linguistic nature and became one of the pillars of the Slavic ethnogenesis, which was anyway also the result of social and political factors. In this article are furthermore taken into account some concepts from contact linguistics: large phenomena of linguistic mixture are rather unlikely to have happened, whereas probably there were phenomena of linguistic shift to Slavic, in particular of Finnic peoples, with cultural (not linguistic) substratum traces of their past.

description: We used a combination of optical and near-UV Hubble Space Telescope photometry and FLAMES/ESO-VLT high-resolution spectroscopy to characterize the stellar content of the old and massive globular cluster (GC) NGC121 in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). We report on the detection of multiple stellar populations, the first case in the SMC stellar cluster system. This result enforces the emerging scenario in which the presence of multiple stellar populations is a distinctive-feature of old and massive GCs regardless of the environment, as far as the light element distribution is concerned. We find that second population (SG) stars are more centrally concentrated than first (FG) ones. More interestingly, at odds with what typically observed in Galactic GCs, we find that NGC121 is the only cluster so far to be dominated by FG stars that account for more than 65% of the total cluster mass. In the framework where GCs were born with a 90-95% of FG stars, this observational finding would suggest that either NGC121 experienced a milder stellar mass-loss with respect to Galactic GCs or it formed a smaller fraction of SG stars.

description: In this paper, we define a novel census signal temporal logic (CensusSTL) that focuses on the number of agents in different subsets of a group that complete a certain task specified by the signal temporal logic (STL). CensusSTL consists of an "inner logic" STL formula and an "outer logic" STL formula. We present a new inference algorithm to infer CensusSTL formulae from the trajectory data of a group of agents. We first identify the "inner logic" STL formula and then infer the subgroups based on whether the agents' behaviors satisfy the "inner logic" formula at each time point. We use two different approaches to infer the subgroups based on similarity and complementarity, respectively. The "outer logic" CensusSTL formula is inferred from the census trajectories of different subgroups. We apply the algorithm in analyzing data from a soccer match by inferring the CensusSTL formula for different subgroups of a soccer team.

Synthesising multi-level perspective and multi-criteria analysis: comparing energy systems transition in Australia and Germany : a dissertation
Creators: name: Cheung, Grace

description: This thesis investigates the contemporary energy transitions and greenhouse gas reduction strategies of Australia and Germany. The thesis provides a comparative study to gain insights into the drivers of change within and between these two developed nations and contributes new perspectives which could support other countries decarbonising their economies to address the wicked problem of climate change. The thesis applied a multi-disciplinary (social, economic and political) and multi-dimensional (policies, actors, technology and comparative) approach. Research strategies were based on mixed-methods, Grounded Theory, longitudinal nested case-study strategies and the development of a multi-criteria analysis model. A combined multi-level perspective (MLP) and multi-criteria analysis tool was developed for the comparative analysis to explore the socio-technical transition processes in Australia and Germany. This applied mainstream Transition Theory and multi-level perspective concepts of the landscape, regime and niche as actors enacting through interwoven forces that shape transition outcomes in these two countries. The focus of the analysis covers the tenure of four Australian Prime Ministers and their governments between 1996 and 2017 and three German Chancellors and their governments between 1990 and 2017. Through a nested case study of each leader's term, a comparative analysis of assessment results uncovered four new perspectives. First, static landscape including fossil-energy endowment and economic structures, such as resources-based vs industry-based economy, of a country are foremost drivers of national energy decision-making. Second, these static landscape aspects can explain the motivation for delayed decarbonisation in Australia when compared to early action in Germany and therein the willingness to invest in new and decarbonised energy systems. Third, consistent economic growth is not a precursor to energy-transition achievement. Fourth, as renewable energy approaches grid parity with traditional and incumbent energy generation, economic investment will expedite socio-technical energy transitions beyond the more cumbersome political policy frameworks.

description: Most satellites decouple the acquisition of a panchromatic image at high spatial resolution from the acquisition of a multispectral image at lower spatial resolution. Pansharpening is a fusion technique used to increase the spatial resolution of the multispectral data while simultaneously preserving its spectral information. In this paper, we consider pansharpening as an optimization problem minimizing a cost function with a nonlocal regularization term. The energy functional which is to be minimized decouples for each band, thus permitting the application to misregistered spectral components. This requirement is achieved by dropping the, commonly used, assumption that relates the spectral and panchromatic modalities by a linear transformation. Instead, a new constraint that preserves the radiometric ratio between the panchromatic and each spectral component is introduced. An exhaustive performance comparison of the proposed fusion method with several classical and state-of-the-art pansharpening techniques illustrates its superiority in preserving spatial details, reducing color distortions, and avoiding the creation of aliasing artifacts.

Clumpy dust clouds and extended atmosphere of the AGB star W Hya revealed with VLT/SPHERE-ZIMPOL and VLTI/AMBER II. Time variations between pre-maximum and minimum light

description: Our recent visible polarimetric images of the well-studied AGB star W Hya taken at pre-maximum light (phase 0.92) with VLT/SPHERE-ZIMPOL have revealed clumpy dust clouds close to the star at ~2 Rstar. We present second-epoch SPHERE-ZIMPOL observations of W Hya at minimum light (phase 0.54) in the continuum (645, 748, and 820 nm), in the Halpha line (656.3 nm), and in the TiO band (717 nm) as well as high-spectral resolution long-baseline interferometric observations in 2.3 micron CO lines with the AMBER instrument at the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI). The high-spatial resolution polarimetric images have allowed us to detect clear time variations in the clumpy dust clouds as close as 34--50~mas (1.4--2.0 Rstar) to the star. We detected the formation of a new dust cloud and the disappearance of one of the dust clouds detected at the first epoch. The Halpha and TiO emission extends to ~150 mas (~6 Rstar), and the Halpha images reveal time variations. The degree of linear polarization is higher at minimum light (13--18%) than that at pre-maximum light. The power-law-type limb-darkened disk fit to the AMBER data in the continuum results in a limb-darkened disk diameter of 49.1+/-1.5 mas and a limb-darkening parameter of 1.16+/-0.49, indicating that the atmosphere is more extended with weaker limb-darkening compared to pre-maximum light. Our Monte Carlo radiative transfer modeling suggests the predominance of small (0.1 micron) grains of Al2O3, Mg2SiO4, and MgSiO3 at minimum light, in marked contrast to the predominance of large (0.5 micron) grains at pre-maximum light. The variability phase dependence of the grain size implies that small grains might just have started to form at minimum light in the wake of a shock, while the pre-maximum light phase might have corresponded to the phase of efficient grain growth.

description: In the literature on singular perturbation (Lavrentiev regularization) for the stable approximate solution of operator equations with monotone operators in the Hilbert space the phenomena of conditional stability and local well-posedness and ill-posedness are rarely investigated. Our goal is to present some studies which try to bridge this gap. So we discuss the impact of conditional stability on error estimates and convergence rates for the Lavrentiev regularization and distinguish for linear problems well-posedness and ill-posedness in a specific manner motivated by a saturation result. The role of the regularization error in the noise-free case, called bias, is a crucial point in the paper for nonlinear and linear problems. In particular, for linear operator equations general convergence rates, including logarithmic rates, are derived by means of the method of approximate source conditions. This allows us to extend well-known convergence rates results for the Lavrentiev regularization that were based on general source conditions to the case of non-selfadjoint linear monotone forward operators for which general source conditions fail. Examples presenting the self-adjoint multiplication operator as well as the non-selfadjoint fractional integral operator and Cesàro operator illustrate the theoretical results. Extensions to the nonlinear case under specific conditions on the nonlinearity structure complete the paper.

description: This paper aims at extending the criterion that the quasi-stability of a polynomial is equivalent to the total nonnegativity of its Hurwitz matrix. We give a complete description of functions generating doubly infinite series with totally nonnegative Hurwitz and Hurwitz-type matrices (in a Hurwitz-type matrix odd and even rows come from two distinct power series). The corresponding result for singly infinite series is known: it is based on a certain factorization of Hurwitz-type matrices, which is absent in the doubly infinite case. A necessary condition for total nonnegativity of generalized Hurwitz matrices follows as an application.

An examination of selective imaging techniques

Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: An extensive empirical study of the frame selection method of high-resolution astronomical imaging, also known as lucky imaging, has been carried out. This method involves the capture of many hundreds or thousands of short exposure frames, the scanning and ranking of all the frames for sharpness, and the co-alignment and averaging of only the best frames into a final image. The performance of the selective imaging technique was tested by imaging several bright stars, binaries and clusters, and using the brightest pixel value in each frame as the sharpness metric. The lucky imaging parameters are the frame exposure time, telescope aperture, seeing, frame selection fraction, colour band, and distance from the co-alignment position. By using a range of aperture masks and colour filters, and a camera with adjustable exposure, we explored the widest range of parameter space of any frame selection study to date. -- The results from the stellar images show that frame selection is very effective at reducing the effects of atmospheric turbulence on astronomical images. When all frames in an observation are combined, the seeing disc is diminished and a bright central core is apparent. By selecting just the best 1% of frames the core is brighter while the halo almost vanishes. In many of these cases faint spikes and dark rings appeared, indicating difraction limited images. The results were best when small apertures were used, particularly at longer wavelengths. It was found that, for the Siding Spring site, the exposure time should be limited to 10 ms, although images were improved at all times tested. It was also found that when image frames of binaries and clusters were co-aligned on the brightest star, the improvement in sharpness was greatest at this point, and the improvement decreased with angular radius. -- To prepare for future research, solar system planets and lunar features were also imaged. These were processed with sharpness metrics suited to extended objects. It was found that frame selection was effective at improving the planetary images over traditional long exposure images. However the results were not as good as for the stellar images. Possible reasons for this are discussed.
Continuous and discontinuous transitions to synchronization

Subjects: subject: Chaotic Dynamics (nlin.CD)

description: We describe how the transition to synchronization in a system of globally coupled Stuart-Landau oscillators changes from continuous to discontinuous when the nature of the coupling is moved from diffusive to reactive. We explain this drastic qualitative change as resulting from the co-existence of a particular synchronized macrostate together with the trivial incoherent macrostate, in a range of parameter values for which the later is linearly stable. In contrast to the paradigmatic Kuramoto model, this particular state observed at the synchronization transition contains a finite, non-vanishing number of synchronized oscillators, which results in a discontinuous transition. We consider successively two situations where either a fully synchronized state or a partially synchronized state exist at the transition. Thermodynamic limit and finite size effects are briefly discussed, as well as connections with recently observed discontinuous transitions.

description: Short internet video clips like vines present a significantly wild distribution compared to traditional video datasets. In this paper, we focus on the problem of unsupervised action classification in wild vines using traditional labeled datasets. To this end, we use a data augmentation based simple domain adaptation strategy. We utilise semantic word2vec space as a common subspace to embed video features from both, labeled source domain and unlablled target domain. Our method incrementally augments the labeled source with target samples and iteratively modifies the embedding function to bring the source and target distributions together. Additionally, we utilise a multi-modal representation that incorporates noisy semantic information available in form of hash-tags. We show the effectiveness of this simple adaptation technique on a test set of vines and achieve notable improvements in performance.

description: The electronic structure and magnetic properties of the 2H-NbS$_2$ compound intercalated by Cr, Mn and Fe, have been investigated by means of the Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker (KKR) method. The calculations demonstrate easy plane magneto-crystalline anisotropy (MCA) of Cr$_{1/3}$NbS$_2$ monotonously decreasing towards the Curie temperature in line with the experimental results. The modification of the electronic structure results in a change of the easy axis from in-plane to out-of-plane. It is shown, that for Cr$_{1/3}$NbS$_2$ and Mn$_{1/3}$NbS$_2$ the in-plane MCA and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions results in a helimagnetic structure along the hexagonal $c$ axis, following the experimental observations. The negative exchange interactions in the Fe$_{1/3}$NbS$_2$ compound results in a non-collinear frustrated magnetic structure if the MCA is not taken into account. It is shown, however, that a strong MCA along the hexagonal $c$ axis leads to a magnetic ordering referred to as an ordering of the third kind, which was observed experimentally.

description: In the past five years, most of the paradigmatic concepts employed in spintronics have been replicated substituting ferromagnets by antiferromagnets in critical parts of the devices. The numerous research efforts directed to manipulate and probe the magnetic moments in antiferromagnets have been gradually established a new and independent field known as antiferromagnetic spintronics. In this paper, we focus on the electrical control and detection of antiferromagnetic moments at a constant temperature. We address separately the experimental results concerning insulating and metallic thin films as they correspond to voltage and electrical current controlled devices, respectively. First, we present results on the voltage control of antiferromagnetic order in insulating thin films. The experiments show that voltage pulses can switch the chirality of a modulated antiferromagnetic structure. Second, we describe the recent advances in metallic antiferromagnetic systems. We present results obtained with the first USB-operated portable device able to perform the non-volatile electrical current-induced switching of an antiferromagnet combined with magnetoresistive readout at room temperature. We discuss on potential applications that can be realized using antiferromagnetic memory cells.
Dynamic response characteristics of pile group under axial harmonic loading

description: Pile-supported machine foundations are examined in this work to identify the dynamic features of linear and nonlinear theories. A three pile group with a 3 m pile length and an outer diameter of 0 114 m is given axial harmonic loading before field based forcing vibration testing For four distinct eccentric moments, tests are carried out at a static load of 12 kN. Each eccentric instant's reaction in terms of frequency and amplitude is examined. The continuum approach technique is also used for theoretical analysis, which employs both linear and nonlinear solutions. All of the eccentric moments' dynamic field test findings are compared to theoretically expected frequency amplitude responses. In comparison to the actual test findings, the linear solution's anticipated responses show lower resonant amplitudes and substantially higher resonant frequencies. The dynamic response curves predicted by the nonlinear solution fit the test findings rather well in this situation. To achieve this degree of agreement with nonlinear analysis results, precision in border zone parameters and soil pile separation lengths was necessary.

description: We report measurements of the thickness and temperature (T) dependencies of current-induced spin-orbit torques, especially the field-like (FL) component, in various heavy metal (HM)/normal metal (NM) spacer/ferromagnet (FM)/Oxide (MgO and HfOx/MgO) heterostructures. The FL torque in these samples originates from spin current generated by the spin Hall effect (SHE) in the HM. For a FM layer sufficiently thin that a substantial portion of this spin current can reach the FM/Oxide interface, T-dependent spin scattering there can yield a strong FL torque that is, in some cases, opposite in sign to that exerted at the NM/FM interface.

description: Since batch algorithms suffer from lack of proficiency in confronting model mismatches and disturbances, this contribution proposes an adaptive scheme based on continuous Lyapunov function for online robot dynamic identification. This paper suggests stable updating rules to drive neural networks inspiring from model reference adaptive paradigm. Network structure consists of three parallel self-driving neural networks which aim to estimate robot dynamic terms individually. Lyapunov candidate is selected to construct energy surface for a convex optimization framework. Learning rules are driven directly from Lyapunov functions to make the derivative negative. Finally, experimental results on 3-DOF Phantom Omni Haptic device demonstrate efficiency of the proposed method.

description: Of late there has been a surge of interest in localised phonon polariton resonators which allow for sub-diffraction confinement of light in the mid-infrared spectral region by coupling to optical phonons at the surface of polar dielectrics. Resonators are generally etched on deep substrates which support propagative surface phonon polariton resonances. Recent experimental work has shown that understanding the coupling between localised and propagative surface phonon polaritons in these systems is vital to correctly describe the system resonances. In this paper we comprehensively investigate resonators composed of arrays of cylindrical SiC resonators on SiC substrates. Our bottom-up approach, starting from the resonances of single, free standing cylinders and isolated substrates, and exploiting both numerical and analytical techniques, allows us to develop a consistent understanding of the parameter space of those resonators, putting on firmer ground this blossoming technology.

description: In May 2023, the University of Maryland Libraries announced a major upgrade to the Pool Reports Digital Collection Website. This release marks a milestone in the White House Correspondents’ Association (WHCA) project as it moves from a prototype pilot to a dynamic and active collection now available for the study and teaching of US Presidential reporting. The collection can be accessed at https://whpool.lib.umd.edu/. This new iteration is greatly enhanced with content about the White House Correspondents' Association. It includes profiles of past and present White House pool reporters; feature stories on a variety of related topics, complete news & press releases; resource lists of materials both within the UMD Libraries Collection; and important material beyond the Libraries' walls. This presentation provides an overview of the project timeline, milestones, content, and innovative digital tools being developed. As part of the Pool Reports Collection, the University Libraries are developing such a tool not only for this collection but for future digital collections. The UMD email processing and redaction tool, SCUTES (named for the protective scales on a turtle's shell), will auto-redact Personal Identification Information (PII) and reformat emails so that they are uniformly displayed in the collection regardless of the email service provided.
Predictive Maintenance in Fusion Devices

description: Fusion power plants will need to run in a reliable way, in order to maximize the power output and avoid delays due to unscheduled maintenance or damage to components. Predictive maintenance is an approach that can contribute to this requirement by periodic or continuous monitoring of the condition of equipment. The goal is to predict when the equipment will require maintenance and, ultimately, to provide an estimate of the remaining useful lifetime of devices and components. This allows better maintenance scheduling and can help avoiding damage due to equipment failure. In this work, we introduce a number of statistical techniques that can be employed toward predictive maintenance in fusion devices. We then present an application to circuit breakers in the JET Ohmic heating circuit, powering the central solenoid. These circuit breakers are an important cause of failed pulses at JET, because they endure physical fatigue due to the large currents required for plasma formation. Using voltage and current data in the circuit, we employ on-line Change Point Detection (CPD) algorithms to determine if the circuit breakers operate in a healthy or deteriorated stage. In general, this approach can provide an advance warning of the deteriorating condition of subsystems and components in fusion devices, allowing maintenance as needed and prevent asset damage.

description: In the Sudano-Guinean and Sahelian zones of Mali, the decline in soil fertility is a key challenge for a sustainable enhancement of agricultural productivity. In addition, studies on the diversity of bacteria associated with Mungbeans are rare, with very few studies conducted on their identification and molecular characterization in the soils of the major agricultural production basins in the Sudano-Guinean and Sahelian Guinean zones of Mali. This study was therefore motivated not only by these different challenges of productivity and soil fertility, but also by the numerous nutritional and agronomic interests of mung beans and the possibility of using its associated bacteria as bio-fertilizers. It aims at contributing to the improvement of mung bean (Vigna radiata L) productivity and the promotion of its cultivation using inocula based on indigenous and efficient bacteria. To achieve this objective, soil samples were taken from various farmers' fields in the two studied areas. The Physico-chemical characteristics of the soils were determined, and trapping trials were conducted in the greenhouse on these soils with Mung bean as the trap plant. The nodules formed on the plants were harvested, the rhizobia contained in these nodules were isolated, the IGS of the 16S-23S rDNA of the isolates was analyzed using PCR-RFLP, and an inoculation test was carried out in a growth chamber to verify the infectivity of the isolates. Eighty-three (83) isolates divided into two groups according to their color (whitish, yellowish) and three (03) IGS types (I, II, III) were encountered with a large dominance of IGS type I in the Guinean zone and that of IGS types I and II in the Sahel zone. Two (02) isolates of type IGS I showed a higher infectivity. These results show a low diversity of rhizobium strains associated with Mung bean in the studied soils. It would be interesting to extend this study to other areas of Mali for strains that associate with Mung bean.

Peeking beneath the precision floor I: metallicity spreads and multiple elemental dispersions in the globular clusters NGC 288 and NGC 362

description: The view of globular clusters (GCs) as simple systems continues to unravel, revealing complex objects hosting multiple chemical peculiarities. Using differential abundance analysis, we probe the chemistry of the Type I GC, NGC 288 and the Type II GC, NGC 362 at the 2\% level for the first time. We measure 20 elements and find differential measurement uncertainties on the order 0.01-0.02 dex in both clusters. The smallest uncertainties are measured for Fe I in both clusters, with an average uncertainty of $\sim$0.013 dex. Dispersion in the abundances of Na, Al, Ti I, Ni, Fe I, Y, Zr, Ba and Nd are recovered in NGC 288, none of which can be explained by a spread in He. This is the first time, to our knowledge, a statistically significant spread in $s$-process elements and a potential spread in metallicity has been detected in NGC 288. In NGC 362, we find significant dispersion in the same elements as NGC 288, with the addition of Co, Cu, Zn, Sr, La, Ce, and Eu. Two distinct groups are recovered in NGC 362, separated by 0.3 dex in average differential $s$-process abundances. Given strong correlations between Al and several $s$-process elements, and a significant correlation between Mg and Si, we propose that the $s$-process rich group is younger. This agrees with asymptotic giant branch star (AGB) enrichment between generations, if there is overlap between low- and intermediate-mass AGBs. In our scenario, the older population is dominated by the $r$-process with a $Δ^{\mathrm{La}}-Δ^{\mathrm{Eu}}$ ratio of $-0.16\pm0.06$. We propose that the $r$-process dominance and dispersion found in NGC 362 are primordial.

description: Nucleosomes form the basic unit of compaction within eukaryotic genomes and their locations represent an important, yet poorly understood, mechanism of genetic regulation. Quantifying the strength of interactions within the nucleosome is a central problem in biophysics and is critical to understanding how nucleosome positions influence gene expression. By comparing to single-molecule experiments, we demonstrate that a coarse-grained molecular model of the nucleosome can reproduce key aspects of nucleosome unwrapping. Using detailed simulations of DNA and histone proteins, we calculate the tension-dependent free energy surface corresponding to the unwrapping process. The model reproduces quantitatively the forces required to unwrap the nucleosome, and reveals the role played by electrostatic interactions during this process. We then demonstrate that histone modifications and DNA sequence can have significant effects on the energies of nucleosome formation. Most notably, we show that histone tails are crucial for stabilizing the outer turn of nucleosomal DNA.
