description: If the linear polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) is rotated in a frequency-independent manner as it propagates from the surface of last scatter, it may introduce a B-mode polarization. Here I show that measurement of higher-order TE, EE, EB, and TB correlations induced by this rotation can be used to reconstruct the rotation angle as a function of position on the sky. This technique can be used to distinguish primordial B modes from those induced by rotation. The effects of rotation can be distinguished geometrically from similar effects due to cosmic shear.

description: We give a very brief overview of collective effects in neutrino oscillations in core collapse supernovae where refractive effects of neutrinos on themselves can considerably modify flavor oscillations, with possible repercussions for future supernova neutrino detection. We discuss synchronized and bipolar oscillations, the role of energy and angular neutrino modes, as well as three-flavor effects. We close with a short summary and some open questions.

Comparison of mass diagram and linear programming methods of mass allocation in forest road design
Creators: name: Haudenschild, Urs Emanuel
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Accessibility of the forest is a basic requirement for a commercially managed forest. Logging in British Columbia often is carried out in remote areas where log transportation is primarily by truck hauling on forest roads. Forest road construction and particularly earth moving are significant elements in the total cost of forest products. Proper choice of road design elements will determine the optimum economy of any forest road. The derivation of road design elements is shown in detail as an introduction to the earth allocation problem. Minimization of costs of main forest access roads is studied in this thesis and alternate methods of mass allocation are presented. A semi-graphical method of mass allocation (mass diagram) is compared with a method employing the electronic computer and the tools of operations research (linear programming). The theory of linear programming (LP) is shown as the optimization technique used for minimizing the earth moving costs. The LP assumptions and limitations are discussed. The two methods were tested on the forest main haul road C in the University of British Columbia Research Forest. Calculations of volume distribution and the required intermediate calculations are carried out with an electronic computer for comparison with traditional methods. The mass diagram method might be used for a long time due to its simplicity, whilst LP provides a more precise solution. The costs of earthmoving and planning are $84.00 or 0.6% of the total earthwork and planning costs less by using LP rather than the mass diagram in the example calculated. The use of dynamic programming (DP) to determine the optimum road lay-out is suggested as a topic for further research, a preliminary step for optimization in mass allocation.

description: We present the first determination of the radial velocities and metallicities of 78 red giant stars in the isolated dwarf irregular galaxy WLM. Observations of the calcium II triplet in these stars were made with FORS2 at the VLT-UT2 in two separated fields of view in WLM, and the [Fe/H] values were conformed to the Carretta & Gratton (1997) metallicity scale. The mean metallicity is = -1.27 +/- 0.04 dex, with a standard deviation of 0.37. We find that the stars in the inner field are more metal rich by [Fe/H] =0.30 +/- 0.06 dex. These results are in agreement with previous photometric studies that found a radial population gradient, as well as the expectation of higher metallicities in the central star forming regions. Age estimates using Victoria-Regina stellar models show that the youngest stars in the sample (< 6 Gyr) are more metal rich by [Fe/H] = 0.32 +/- 0.08 dex. These stars also show a lower velocity dispersion at all elliptical radii compared to the metal-poor stars. Kinematics for the whole red giant sample suggest a velocity gradient approximately half that of the gas rotation curve, with the stellar component occupying a thicker disk decoupled from the HI rotation plane. Taken together, the kinematics, metallicities, and ages in our sample suggest a young metal-rich, and kinematically cold stellar population in the central gas-rich regions of WLM, surrounded by a separate dynamically hot halo of older, metal poor stars.

Latex-coated stationary phases for preconcentration and separation in capillary electrochromatography
Creators: name: Hutchinson, JP
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: This work presents a systematic study on the use of latex-coated stationary phases for on-column ion-exchange preconcentration of anions by capillary electrochromatography with elution by a transient isotachophoretic gradient. Fully functionalised quaternary ammonium latex particles were electrostatically bound to open tubular (OT) capillaries and porous monolithic capillary columns. These columns were characterised and provided a reproducible and simple means for creating ion-exchange stationary phases with reversed electroosmotic flow. Monolithic columns provide a chromatographic support of high surface area, high phase ratio and are highly permeable. Adsorption of latex-particles provides superior mass-transfer properties ideal for ion-exchange preconcentration and ion-exchange capillary electrochromatography (IE-CEC). The prepared columns were characterised by their retention in IE-CEC when the ion-exchange interaction was varied through manipulating the strength and nature of the competing ion. Porosimetry and scanning electron microscopy were used to characterise the monolithic surface and architecture. Up to 300,000 plates/column were achieved using latex-coated silica monolithic columns and 164,000 plates/column were achieved on methacrylate analogues. Both silica and methacrylate latex-coated monolithic columns were of similar capacity and around 20 times greater when compared to OT counterparts. A monolayer coverage of latex particles was not evident on the monolithic columns created and resulted in mixed mode interaction for the separation of organic anions on a polymer support. Multi-mode columns were created using zero-dead volume unions to attach a second capillary segment for the purpose of separation and detection and allowed individual optimisation of the discrete segments. Decoupling of the preconcentration column allowed in situ preconcentration of a river water sample, which was brought back to the laboratory for analysis. Novel discontinuous electrolyte combinations were used to increase the range of analytes which could be preconcentrated and detected. Alkylsulfonates were found to be ideal strong electrolytes of low electrophoretic mobility and were able to efficiently elute a large range of inorganic and organic anions. Further efforts to increase the range of anions which can be preconcentrated and detected included the use of a miniaturised capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detector and indirect UV detection. High capacity monolithic columns were suitable for sample-cleanup procedures and were applied to the preconcentration of iodide in Southern Ocean seawater. Detection limits of 11 pM were achieved for iodide when selective focusing occurred at the isotachophoretic boundary using IE-CEC.

description: The liquid-gas phase diagram for polydisperse dipolar hard-sphere fluid with polydispersity in the hard-sphere size and dipolar moment is calculated using extension of the recently proposed thermodynamic perturbation theory for central force (TPT-CF) associating potential. To establish the connection with the phase behavior of ferrocolloidal dispersions it is assumed that the dipole moment is proportional to the cube of the hard-sphere diameter. We present and discuss the full phase diagram, which includes cloud and shadow curves, binodals and distribution functions of the coexisting daughter phases at different degrees of the system polydispersity. In all cases studied polydispersity increases the region of the phase instability and shifts the critical point to the higher values of the temperature and density. The larger size particles always fractionate to the liquid phase and the smaller size particles tend to move to the gas phase. At relatively high values of the system polydispersity three-phase coexistence is observed.

description: In the global economy, the tourism industry is an important constituent of economic growth and employment and its signicance is still on the rise. A competitive marketplace urges destinations to provide distinct and unique experiences while managing scarce resources. One way to approach the discussion on tourist destination attractiveness is to consider the impact of a superstar strongly associated with the destination. We conducted a quantitative study evaluating perceptions of the eect of Cristiano Ronaldo on tourism in continental Portugal and on the Island of Madeira. A survey was distributed online using social media. Results indicate that from the viewpoint of the respondents of the study (N=111) Cristiano Ronaldo positively aects the reputation of Portugal abroad and brings more tourists to Portugal and to the Island of Madeira. No association was found between the respondents' gender and their pride in being Portuguese because of Cristiano. Similarly, no association was found between the respondents' age and the main characteristic seen in Cristiano Ronaldo. However, a statistically signicant association was found between gender and the main characteristic seen in Cristiano Ronaldo female respondents tend to associate Cristiano to kindness and family values, whereas male respondents tend to associate Cristiano to spirit of sacrice.

Second skin
Creators: name: Humphries, Trudy
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: The project examines the textile component of surgical dressing - the bandage. My search for the meaning of bandage has concentrated on three main areas: the performance of care in relation to bandage, the concept of bandage as a metaphor for healing, and bandage as an object that signifies both absence and presence. I found textile, with its capacity to convey meaning, to be the most appropriate medium to make the intangible 'seen' or 'felt'. Bandage has an alliance with the body where its ability to temporarily replace skin, together with its ability to record, absorb and imprint from the body, makes it suitable for the construction of bodily memory. These characteristics have been deliberately intensified through the scale of the artwork. A survey of long-term wearers of bandage revealed an array of personal thoughts and feelings of personal physical and emotional conditions. The data provided the primary focus for the work. This was further informed by a study of the history of bandage that revealed a history shrouded within literature on ancient dressings and colonial medicine - as well as those of textile and cultural origins. My bandages were created from gauze, cotton, linen, silk and hemp, as well as many synthetic fabrics that were either woven or non-woven. The fabrics have been dyed with natural dyes that I have extracted from the bark of Tasmanian trees, and commercial synthetic dyes, before being painted, stitched and sutured. They were then moulded with glues and varnishes. In my interpretation of the bandage experience, I have endeavoured to unravel the impalpable and unseeable effects and implications of wearing bandage. I have represented the effects as a void within each of the three dimensional textile bandage husks. This space was created with the aim of allowing viewers time to reflect on their own experience of bandage as well as the experience of others. These textile wrappings are second skins, vessels of remembered experience assembled in the format of a collection.

description: Protons accelerated in the internal shocks of a long duration gamma ray burst can escape the fireball as cosmic rays by converting to neutrons. Hadronic interactions of these neutrons inside a stellar wind bubble created by the progenitor star will produce TeV gamma rays via neutral meson decay and synchrotron radiation by charged pion-decay electrons in the wind magnetic field. Such gamma rays should be observable from nearby gamma ray bursts by currently running and upcoming ground-based detectors.

description: The paper assesses the factors that influence the location of hotel groups’ headquarters. The concentration of headquarters in a particular country is modelled by three different variables: share of Hotels 325 ranked hotel groups headquartered in the country, share of hotels in Hotels 325 ranked groups headquartered in the country and share of rooms in Hotels 325 ranked hotel groups headquartered in the country. Three groups of factors are assessed: hotel industry-specific factors (size of the hotel industry, average capacity and share of affiliated hotels in the local hotel industry), tourism-specific factors (size and importance of tourism industry, destination’s competitiveness) and the general business environment (GDP, GDP per capita, population size, levels of globalisation, human development, and corruption). The sample includes 116 countries. Findings reveal that highest concentration of hotel groups’ headquarters is in countries with large hotel industries, high share of affiliated properties, high tourism competitiveness index and in the USA. Tourism policy implication, limitations and future research directions are also discussed.

description: We analyze PHENIX near-side ridge data for central Au+Au collisions at \sqrt{s_{NN}}=200 GeV with the momentum kick model, in which a near-side jet emerges near the surface, kicks medium partons, loses energy, and fragments into the trigger particle and fragmentation products. The kicked medium partons subsequently materialize as the observed ridge particles, which carry direct information on the early parton momentum distribution and the magnitude of the momentum kick. We find that the PHENIX ridge data can be described well by the momentum kick model and the extracted early partons momentum distribution has a thermal-like transverse distribution and a rapidity plateau structure. We also find that the parton-parton scattering between the jet parton and the medium parton involves the exchange of a non-perturbative pomeron, for jet partons in momentum range considered in the near-side ridge measurements.

Planning and Executing Airborne Astronomy Missions for SOFIA

Subjects: subject: Instrumentation and Methods for Astrophysics (astro-ph.IM)

description: SOFIA is a 2.5 meter airborne infrared telescope, mounted in a Boeing 747SP aircraft. Due to the large size of the telescope, only a few degrees of azimuth are available at the telescope bearing. This means the heading of the aircraft is fundamentally associated with the telescope's observation targets, and the ground track necessary to enable a given mission is highly complex and dependent on the coordinates, duration, and order of observations to be performed. We have designed and implemented a Flight Management Infrastructure (FMI) product in order to plan and execute such missions in the presence of a large number of external constraints (e.g. restricted airspace, international boundaries, elevation limits of the telescope, aircraft performance, winds at altitude, and ambient temperatures). We present an overview of the FMI, including the process, constraints and basic algorithms used to plan and execute SOFIA missions.

Stellar disruption by a supermassive black hole: is the light curve really proportional to $t^{-5/3}$?

description: In this paper we revisit the arguments for the basis of the time evolution of the flares expected to arise when a star is disrupted by a supermassive black hole. We present a simple analytic model relating the lightcurve to the internal density structure of the star. We thus show that the standard lightcurve proportional to $t^{-5/3}$ only holds at late times. Close to the peak luminosity the lightcurve is shallower, deviating more strongly from $t^{-5/3}$ for more centrally concentrated (e.g. solar--type) stars. We test our model numerically by simulating the tidal disruption of several stellar models, described by simple polytropic spheres with index $γ$. The simulations agree with the analytical model given two considerations. First, the stars are somewhat inflated on reaching pericentre because of the effective reduction of gravity in the tidal field of the black hole. This is well described by a homologous expansion by a factor which becomes smaller as the polytropic index becomes larger. Second, for large polytropic indices wings appear in the tails of the energy distribution, indicating that some material is pushed further away from parabolic orbits by shocks in the tidal tails. In all our simulations, the $t^{-5/3}$ lightcurve is achieved only at late stages. In particular we predict that for solar type stars, this happens only after the luminosity has dropped by at least two magnitudes from the peak. We discuss our results in the light of recent observations of flares in otherwise quiescent galaxies and note the dependence of these results on further parameters, such as the star/hole mass ratio and the stellar orbit.

description: We investigate the degree distribution $P(k)$ and the clustering coefficient $C$ of the line graphs constructed on the Erdös-Rényi networks, the exponential and the scale-free growing networks. We show that the character of the degree distribution in these graphs remains Poissonian, exponential and power law, respectively, i.e. the same as in the original networks. When the mean degree $$ increases, the obtained clustering coefficient $C$ tends to 0.50 for the transformed Erdös-Rényi networks, to 0.53 for the transformed exponential networks and to 0.61 for the transformed scale-free networks. These results are close to theoretical values, obtained with the model assumption that the degree-degree correlations in the initial networks are negligible.

Picloram residues in potatoes and carrots and picloram photodecomposition.
Creators: name: Soniassy, Ranjit Nunderdass
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Residues of picloram in four varieties of potatoes, given pre-emergence treatments with picloram at 2 oz per acre and picloram at 2 oz + linuron at 24 oz per acre were determined by electron capture gas chromatography. Average residue levels of 3.9 and 2.7 ppb (fresh weight) were obtained for the picloram and picloram + linuron treatments. This difference was significant at the 1% level. Tuber injury, ranging from formation of corky tissues on the surface to splitting, was observed with the picloram treatments. No such injury was observed with the picloram + linuron treatments. Yields were noticeably higher in the picloram + linuron treatments. The reduced picloram residues could thus be associated with the diluting effect of higher yields which resulted from the addition of linuron. A similar experiment using four varieties of carrots given either pre-emergence or post-emergence treatments with picloram at ½ and 2 oz per acre respectively gave no detectable picloram residues. Using ¹⁴C carboxyl labeled picloram this finding was further investigated and it was shown that picloram was absorbed by the foliage and roots and translocated throughout the whole plant. The leaves accumulated four times more radioactivity than the taproots. The radioactivity in the leaves and taproots was in the form of the parent picloram molecule. The picloram present in the taproot was located mainly in the xylem. A study of the stability of picloram, its potassium salt and its methyl ester under short wave ultraviolet light (253.7 nm) revealed that all three compounds were degraded into several photoproducts. The methyl ester was the least stable, being 85% degraded after one hour exposure. Picloram and its potassium salt were more stable, each being 50% decomposed after one hour exposure. Partial polymerization of all three compounds may also have taken place.

description: In 1991, Yannakakis (J. Comput. System Sci., 1991) proved that no symmetric extended formulation for the matching polytope of the complete graph K_n with n nodes has a number of variables and constraints that is bounded subexponentially in n. Here, symmetric means that the formulation remains invariant under all permutations of the nodes of K_n. It was also conjectured in the paper mentioned above that "asymmetry does not help much," but no corresponding result for general extended formulations has been found so far. In this paper we show that for the polytopes associated with the matchings in K_n with log(n) (rounded down) edges there are non-symmetric extended formulations of polynomial size, while nevertheless no symmetric extended formulations of polynomial size exist. We furthermore prove similar statements for the polytopes associated with cycles of length log(n) (rounded down). Thus, with respect to the question for smallest possible extended formulations, in general symmetry requirements may matter a lot. Compared to the extended abtract that has appeared in the Proceedings of IPCO XIV at Lausanne, this paper does not only contain proofs that had been ommitted there, but it also presents slightly generalized and sharpened lower bounds.

Capitalizing on community music : a case study of the manifestation of social capital in a community choir
Creators: name: Langston, Thomas W
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: This study examines the manifestation of social capital in a Community Choir and explores the links between community music, and the generation and use of social capital in community settings. Whilst there is an extensive literature on social capital and its generation and use in communities, little is known about the ways in which social capital is manifested in community music settings. The literature identifies social capital through the presence of 'indicators' such as 'trust', 'community and civic involvement',and 'networks'. This study sought to identify those indicators of social capital that are present in a Community Choir in regional Tasmania. There is considerable debate in the literature as to what constitutes 'community music'. In this study, I distinguish between two forms of community music: Community Music (CM), characterised by professional intervention in community settings; and. Music in the Community (MiC), characterised by music-making that arises from 'grass-roots' activity in and by the community. Whilst both forms of community music can generate social capital, in this study I suggest that the social capital generated by MiC is more sustainable. This qualitative, interpretive case study employs multiple data generation methods including surveys, field notes, and semi-structured interviews. Narrative analysis of data from a Quartet of choir members is employed to construct individual stories of engagement within the choir, and participation in the generation and use of social capital. An analysis of narrative approach is used to interrogate data from the main body of the Community Choir, {Tutti), and to identify those social capital indicators present in the Community Choir. Through analysis of the data, it is evident that the social capital indicators identified in the literature, specifically those of shared norms and values,trust, civic and community involvement, networks, knowledge resources, and, contact with families and friends, are present in the Community Choir. Further, a previously unemphasized social capital indicator that of Fellowship, is identified as a key component in group cohesion and social capital development within the Community Choir. A key element in the generation of social capital in the choir is the identification of a 'new' form of community, a community of common histories. I suggest that the identification of such communities has significance for understanding why individuals participate in community groups, and how social capital and groups develop. The literature suggests that those who participate in community activities keep their minds and bodies active, live longer, and maintain health and well-being more effectively. The study of MiC activities such as the Community Choir holds potential to inform policy development and community practice in relation to Australia's aging population.

Long tunneling contact as a probe of fractional quantum Hall neutral edge modes

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)

description: We study the tunneling current between edge states of quantum Hall liquids across a single long contact region, and predict a resonance at a bias voltage set by the scale of the edge velocity. For typical devices and edge velocities associated with charged modes, this resonance occurs outside the physically accessible bias domain. However, for edge states that are expected to support neutral modes, such as the $ν={2/3}$, and $ν={5/2}$ Pfaffian and anti-Pfaffian states, the neutral velocity can be orders of magnitude smaller than the charged mode and if so the resonance would be accessible. Therefore, such long tunneling contacts can resolve the presence of neutral edge modes in certain quantum Hall liquids.

Simulations of Electron Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Earth and Planetary Astrophysics (astro-ph.EP)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We present numerical simulations of electron magnetohydrodynamic (EMHD) and electron reduced MHD (ERMHD) turbulence. Comparing scaling relations, we find that both EMHD and ERMHD turbulence show similar spectra and anisotropy. We develop new techniques to study anisotropy of EMHD turbulence. Our detailed study of anisotropy of EMHD turbulence supports our earlier result of k_par ~ k_perp^(1/3) scaling. We find that the high-order statistics show a scaling that is similar to the She-Leveque scaling. We observe that the bispectra, which characterize the interaction of different scales within the turbulence cascade, are very different for EMHD and MHD turbulence. We show that both decaying and driven EMHD turbulence have the same statistical properties. We calculate the probability distribution functions (PDFs) of MHD and EMHD turbulence and compare them with those of interplanetary turbulence. We find that, as in the case of the solar wind, the PDFs of the increments of magnetic field strength in MHD and EMHD turbulence are well described by the Tsallis distribution. We discuss implications of our results for astrophysical situations, including the ADAFs and magnetic reconnection.

 Poecilimon inflatus Brunner von Wattenwyl (1891): 28.
 P. inflatus has a narrow range in the south-west corner of Anatolia and its range is geographically very heterogeneous. Some other lineages restricted to the same area, exhibit interesting patterns of diversity and the Demre district seems to be special (Veith et al. 2008; Boztepe et al. 2013; Kaya et al. 2015). This speciality is also observed for P. inflatus group and the extensive material showed that the Kemer-Demre population of P. inflatus differs morphologically from that in the remaining western part of the range. We decided to indicate this diversity to the taxonomy of species by defining the Demre population as a separate taxon. As reproductive isolation between these forms needs further testing we defined the latter population as a separate subspecies, P. inflatus lyciae subsp. n. Description of P. inflatus was supplemented by Heller (2004) and is also valid for the new subspecies except for the diagnostic characters.
Karabağ (1958) reported this species from Bölüntü (Aydın Province of Turkey) on the basis of one male and one female. Although field studies by one of the authors (SK) has been done in this locality on the same date as reported no sample was found. This locality is far from the presently confirmed range of the species and needs confirmation. On the other hand it is difficult to assign it to any subspecies without examining the specimens.

Studies in nature conservation
Creators: name: Kirkpatrick, James
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: The papers enclosed in this volume were all created with one major motivation, to contribute to the conservation of nature, defining nature in its dualistic sense. In paper 1.1, I described several ways in which biogeographers/ecologists can help create positive outcomes for nature through the research work that they choose to undertake, ranging from revealing interesting stories that might arouse public interest in nature conservation to the provision of a technical and knowledge foundation for conservation measures in matters of public dispute. Paper 1.2 argues the proposition that the particular may be more important than the general in gaining the types of ecological understandings that might enable practical nature conservation. Some of the ethical underpinnings of my research work are discussed in paper 1.3, the main, and unexceptional, point being that ecologists should base their public utterances on an honest reading of their always inadequate data. Attachment to ideas/generalizations/hypotheses can be bad for both science and the living world. The few people who will read this volume will probably pick up some instances of hypothesis drift, where the initial guiding proposition proves less interesting than a byproduct of the research process, and many instances of hypothesis reversal, where an idea that seemed excellent in relation to the data available at the time proves to be incorrect in a context of more data or a wider understanding. The work in the present thesis was focused largely on Tasmania, a State of islands in the Commonwealth of Australia, constituting approximately 6.9 million ha of land, of which approximately 70% had not been cleared or inundated by 2005. The late Professor Bill Jackson believed that plant ecologists could only be proficient in their trade by knowing an area for decades. Whatever the truth of this proposition, longevity in a place does allow decades scale observations that can often be more powerful than natural or induced experiments in contributing towards an understanding of natural processes (e.g. 6.3.2, 3.1.16; 3.1.17; 5.4). The size and environmental heterogeneity of Tasmania have made it an excellent laboratory for the development and testing of ecological and conservation planning ideas and techniques, many of which have much wider relevance than to one small set of islands.
