description: We analyze the relationships between atomic, neutral hydrogen (HI) and star formation (SF) in the 12 low-mass SHIELD galaxies. We compare high spectral (~0.82 km/s/channel) and spatial resolution (physical resolutions of 170 pc - 700 pc) HI imaging from the VLA with Hαand far-ultraviolet imaging. We quantify the degree of co-spatiality between star forming regions and regions of high HI column densities. We calculate the global star formation efficiencies (SFE, $Σ_{\rm SFR}$ / $Σ_{\rm HI}$), and examine the relationships among the SFE and HI mass, HI column density, and star formation rate (SFR). The systems are consuming their cold neutral gas on timescales of order a few Gyr. While we derive an index for the Kennicutt-Schmidt relation of N ~ 0.68 $\pm$ 0.04 for the SHIELD sample as a whole, the values of N vary considerably from system to system. By supplementing SHIELD results with those from other surveys, we find that HI mass and UV-based SFR are strongly correlated over five orders of magnitude. Identification of patterns within the SHIELD sample allows us to bin the galaxies into three general categories: 1) mainly co-spatial HI and SF regions, found in systems with highest peak HI column densities and highest total HI masses, 2) moderately correlated HI and SF regions, found in systems with moderate HI column densities, and 3) obvious offsets between HI and SF peaks, found in systems with the lowest total HI masses. SF in these galaxies is dominated by stochasticity and random fluctuations in their ISM.

description: We introduce a class of "Lipschitz horizontal" vector fields in homogeneous groups, for which we show equivalent descriptions, e.g. in terms of suitable derivations. We then investigate the associated Cauchy problem, providing a uniqueness result both at equilibrium points and for vector fields of an involutive submodule of Lipschitz horizontal vector fields. We finally exhibit a counterexample to the general well-posedness theory for Lipschitz horizontal vector fields, in contrast with the Euclidean theory.
Seismic surveys of the Amery Ice Shelf, East Antarctica: an investigation of meteoric and marine ice, the ocean cavity and the anisotropic crystalline structure of strained ice

description: A multipurpose seismic study of the Amery Ice Shelf (AIS), East Antarctica, was undertaken between 2002/03 and 2005/06 with the aim of expanding glaciological knowledge of the structure of the AIS. Seismic reflection surveys were carried out at localities G2A, AM01, AM04, and CT. CT is situated across the Lambert Glacier (LG)-Mawson Escarpment Ice Stream (MEIS) flow boundary. The results show ~722 m total ice at G2A, and a sharp 15 m decrease from 672 m to 657 m at the LG-MEIS ice boundary at CT. Strong reflections just under the ice base correspond to cooler water temperatures, mapping an 18-36 m layer of basal melt. A pycnocline is present in most seismic records, showing the boundary between Ice Shelf Water (ISW) and High Salinity Shelf Water. ISW thicknesses are 137-140 m at G2A and CT, and 75-95 m at AM01. At sites of marine ice accretion (AM01 and AM04) seismic data reveals the meteoric-marine ice boundary at 277 m and 394-401 m respectively. This matches depths measured by the Amery Ice Shelf Ocean Research (AMISOR) hot-water drilling project. Interestingly, the ice shelf base depth as measured by AMISOR produced no reflection in the seismic data at AM01 and AM04. A reflection from the hydraulic connection depth instead appears at 376 m at AM01 and 533-544 m at AM04. Seafloor depth below the surface is ~1317-1357 m around G2A, 975-992 m around AM04, 814-824 m at AM01 and 1120 m at the CT Line, although here the seismic data also shows a hill with its crest at 1083 m depth. Perpendicular refraction surveys across major flow unit boundaries revealed negligible to weak azimuthal differences in P wave ice velocities, with no significant variation found within the upper ~100 m of ice shelf ice. The results showed a general range of 0.1-2.2% variation, with only one site displaying a 4.3% variation which may or may not indicate an anisotropic ice fabric.

description: We report the discovery of an eclipsing low-mass X-ray binary at the center of the 3FGL error ellipse of the unassociated Fermi/Large Area Telescope gamma-ray source 3FGL J0427.9-6704. Photometry from OGLE and the SMARTS 1.3-m telescope and spectroscopy from the SOAR telescope have allowed us to classify the system as an eclipsing low-mass X-ray binary (P = 8.8 hr) with a main sequence donor and a neutron star accretor. Broad double-peaked H and He emission lines suggest the ongoing presence of an accretion disk. Remarkably, the system shows shows separate sets of absorption lines associated with the accretion disk and the secondary, and we use their radial velocities to find evidence for a massive (~ 1.8-1.9 M_sun) neutron star primary. In addition to a total X-ray eclipse of duration ~ 2200 s observed with NuSTAR, the X-ray light curve also shows properties similar to those observed among known transitional millisecond pulsars: short-term variability, a hard power-law spectrum (photon index ~ 1.7), and a comparable 0.5-10 keV luminosity (~ 2.4 x 10^33 erg/s). We find tentative evidence for a partial (~ 60%) gamma-ray eclipse at the same phase as the X-ray eclipse, suggesting the gamma-ray emission may not be confined to the immediate region of the compact object. The favorable inclination of this binary is promising for future efforts to determine the origin of gamma-rays among accreting neutron stars.

Article – Speaking the Unspeakable? Nicola Lacey’s Unspeakable Subjects and Consent in the Age of #MeToo
Creators: name: Cooper, Chiara
Publisher: name: feminists@law
Year: 2018

description: In the midst of the #MeToo movement, a woman named Grace came forward describing an experience – that she had labelled sexual assault – with actor/comedian Aziz Ansari. This encounter did not reflect a clear and dichotomous giving or withholding of consent in line with a yes or no to sex. Because of this ambiguity, Grace’s assault became somewhat of a catalyst for #MeToo. The movement was divided into critics on the one hand, who argued her evening with Ansari was no more than an episode of bad heterosex, and supporters on the other, for whom Grace’s account resonated and who subsequently backed the need for deeper conversations on the topic of sexual consent. Considering these debates and Grace’s experience, this paper looks to the work of Nicola Lacey in Unspeakable Subjects to analyse how current ideas of sexual consent, in the 2003 Sexual Offences Act and beyond, fail to reflect a nuanced understanding of sexual harms, consequently neglecting ambiguous experiences in heterosex – like Grace’s – of consented to unwanted sex. Through an exploration of Lacey’s concept of sexual integrity, scholarship in the area of BDSM and other sociolegal approaches to considering consent and sex more ethically, this paper advocates expanding our view of consent to involve a critical analysis of how multiple power dynamics can intersect to affect individuals’ abilities to freely and meaningfully consent in heterosex.

description: We present kinematic analyses of the 12 galaxies in the "Survey of HI in Extremely Low-mass Dwarfs" (SHIELD). We use multi-configuration interferometric observations of the HI 21cm emission line from the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) to produce image cubes at a variety of spatial and spectral resolutions. Both two- and three-dimensional fitting techniques are employed in an attempt to derive inclination-corrected rotation curves for each galaxy. In most cases, the comparable magnitudes of velocity dispersion and projected rotation result in degeneracies that prohibit unambiguous circular velocity solutions. We thus make spatially resolved position-velocity cuts, corrected for inclination using the stellar components, to estimate the circular rotation velocities. We find circular velocities <30 km/s for the entire survey population. Baryonic masses are calculated using single-dish HI fluxes from Arecibo and stellar masses derived from HST and Spitzer imaging. Comparison is made with total dynamical masses estimated from the position-velocity analysis. The SHIELD galaxies are then placed on the baryonic Tully-Fisher relation. There exists an empirical threshold rotational velocity <15 km/s, below which current observations cannot differentiate coherent rotation from pressure support. The SHIELD galaxies are representative of an important population of galaxies whose properties cannot be described by current models of rotationally-dominated galaxy dynamics.

description: Natural methane gas release from the seafloor is a widespread phenomenon that occurs at cold seeps along most continental margins. Since their discovery in the early 1980s, seeps have been the focus of intensive research, partly aimed at refining the global carbon budget. However, deep-sea research is challenging and expensive and, to date, few programs have successfully monitored the variability of methane gas release over several weeks or more. Long-term monitoring is necessary to study the mechanisms that control seabed gas release. Located at 800 m depth on the Cascadia accretionary prism offshore Oregon, Southern Hydrate Ridge is one of the most studied seep sites where persistent, but variable gas release has been observed for more than 20 years. Using a series of instruments connected to the Ocean Observatories Initiative's (OOI) Regional Cabled Array observatory, we monitored the venting activity at Southern Hydrate Ridge over several months. We will present results from the systematic monitoring, which include in particular acoustic sensing of bubble plumes and time-lapse photography of selected vents at the seafloor. The data reveal a very dynamic system characterized by frequent and significant changes in seabed morphology and highly variable gas emissions. Acoustic data show how bubble plume variability is linked to the local tidal cycles. Photo and video imagery reveal how intense gas ebullition contributes to rapidly shaping the seabed morphology. This work is funded by the German Ministry of Education and Research (Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung). The OOI is funded by the National Science Foundation.

description: We demonstrate the continuous and reversible tuning of the optical band gap of suspended monolayer MoS2 membranes by as much as 500 meV by applying very large biaxial strains. By using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) to grow crystals that are highly impermeable to gas, we are able to apply a pressure difference across suspended membranes to induce biaxial strains. We observe the effect of strain on the energy and intensity of the peaks in the photoluminescence (PL) spectrum, and find a linear tuning rate of the optical band gap of 99 meV/%. This method is then used to study the PL spectra of bilayer and trilayer devices under strain, and to find the shift rates and Grüneisen parameters of two Raman modes in monolayer MoS2. Finally, we use this result to show that we can apply biaxial strains as large as 5.6% across micron sized areas, and report evidence for the strain tuning of higher level optical transitions.

description: The Schmidt law (SF law) in the Milky Way was investigated using 3D distribution maps of HII regions, HI and molecular (\Htwo) gases with spatial resolutions of $\sim 1$ kpc in the Galactic plane and a few tens of pc in the vertical direction. HII regions were shown to be distributed in a star-forming (SF) disk with nearly constant vertical full thickness 92 pc in spatial coincidence with the molecular gas disk. The vertically averaged volume star formation rate (SFR) $ρ_{\rm SFR}$ in the SF disk is related to the surface SFR $Σ_{\rm SFR}$ by $ρ_{\rm SFR} /[{\rm M_\odot y^{-1} kpc^{-3}}] =9.26\times Σ_{\rm SFR}/[{\rm M_\odot y^{-1} kpc^{-2}}]$. The SF law fitted by a single power law of gas density in the form of $Σ_{\rm SFR} \propto ρ_{\rm SFR} \propto ρ_{\rm gas}^α$ and $\propto Σ_{\rm gas}^β$ showed indices of $α=0.78 \pm 0.05$ for $ρ_{\rm H_2}$ and $2.15 \pm 0.08$ for $ρ_{\rm total}$, and $β=1.14\pm 0.23$ for $Σ_{\rm total}$, where $ρ$ and $Σ$ denote volume and surface densities, respectively. The star formation rate is shown to be directly related to the molecular gas, but indirectly to HI and total gas densities. The dependence of the SF law on the gaseous phase is explained by the phase transition theory between HI and H$_2$ gases.

title: Computational Requirements Hidden Behind Encodings
Creators: name: Hoeberechts, Maia
Publisher: name: Institut für Informatik, Justus-Liebig-Universität Giessen
Year: 2018

description: In formal language theory, we are accustomed to defining, discussing, and developing
formal models of computation, often without considering their potential
applicability as practical computing devices. In the real world, however, we expect our computers to
do things for us: display images, solve differential equations, spell check documents,
and so on.
It is frequently assumed that
as long as an effective encoding of a problem in a
machine's input/output alphabet exists and providing that the machine can compute
a desired function, then that machine
is capable of solving that problem.  This approach hides
requirements which should be explicitly included as part of
the computation.
In this paper, the gap between machine models and their
encodings and one's ability to use those models to solve problems is explored, namely with
respect to the computational requirements hidden behind encodings.
The analysis provides some small steps in the direction of a model of computation which
more closely resembles real-world computation.
Firstly, computational requirements for using machine
descriptions for problem solving are analysed in detail. Definitions
of computing capability for individual machines are introduced.
Differences resulting from varied
input alphabets are discussed, in addition to implications for universal computation, and
consequences of using language acceptors and function calculators.
Secondly, the distinction
between formal descriptions and their interpretations in the problem
domain is considered. The idea that machine descriptions are labels
for functions is introduced.  The trade-off between the succinctness
of a description and its readiness for use as a computing device is
discussed. Finally, some conclusions regarding the computing power required
for solving problems are presented.

description: Ultra-compact high velocity clouds (UCHVCs) were identified in the ALFALFA HI survey as potential gas-bearing dark matter halos. Here we present higher resolution neutral hydrogen (HI) observations of twelve UCHVCS with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT). The UCHVCs were selected based on a combination of size, isolation, large recessional velocity and high column density as the best candidate dark matter halos. The WSRT data were tapered to image the UCHVCs at 210" (comparable to Arecibo) and 105" angular resolution. In a comparison of the single-dish to interferometer data, we find that the line flux recovered in the WSRT observations is comparable to that from the single-dish ALFALFA data. In addition, any structure seen in the ALFALFA data is reproduced in the WSRT maps at the same angular resolution. At 210'" resolution all the sources are generally compact with a smooth HI morphology, as expected from their identification as UCHVCs. At the higher angular resolution, a majority of the sources break into small clumps contained in a diffuse envelope. These UCHVCs also have no ordered velocity motion and are most likely Galactic halo clouds. We identify two UCHVCs, AGC 198606 and AGC 249525, as excellent galaxy candidates based on maintaining a smooth HI morphology at higher angular resolution and showing ordered velocity motion consistent with rotation. A third source, AGC 249565, lies between these two populations in properties and is a possible galaxy candidate. If interpreted as gas-bearing dark matter halos, the three candidate galaxies have rotation velocities of 8-15 km/s, HI masses of 0.6-50 x 10^5 Msun, HI radii of 0.3-2 kpc, and dynamical masses of 2-20 x 10^7 Msun for a range of plausible distances. These are the UCHVCs with the highest column density values in the ALFALFA HI data and we suggest this is the best way to identify further candidates.

description: Coherence of a quantum state intrinsically depends on the choice of the reference basis. A natural question to ask is the following: if we use two or more incompatible reference bases, can~there be some trade-off relation between the coherence measures in different reference bases? We show that the quantum coherence of a state as quantified by the relative entropy of coherence in two or more noncommuting reference bases respects uncertainty like relations for a given state of single and bipartite quantum systems. In the case of bipartite systems, we find that the presence of entanglement may tighten the above relation. Further, we find an upper bound on the sum of the relative entropies of coherence of bipartite quantum states in two noncommuting reference bases. Moreover, we provide an upper bound on the absolute value of the difference of the relative entropies of coherence calculated with respect to two incompatible bases.

Consumer and brand engagement on Facebook brand pages

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

description: Social media has sparked a remarkable change in the way brands engage with consumers and has empowered consumers to collectively voice their opinions with unprecedented scale. Challenged by the empowerment that consumers have gained, marketers are continuously engaging consumers through dedicated brand communities on social media platforms. Facebook brand pages are widely used by brands to engage with consumers because they support multi-way interactions between brands and consumers and among consumers themselves. These interactive experiences are what marketers call consumer brand engagement, a concept with much debate as to its scope and dimensions, but less attention is given to decipher the intricacies between brand engagement and consumer engagement behaviors, to understand its emotional dynamics, and to examine the role of webcare strategies to manage consumer conversations on Facbook brand pages. To fill those gaps, this thesis contains three co-authored papers. The first paper is an empirical analysis of the interplay between brand engagement and consumer engagement behaviors as well as among consumers themselves on Facebook brand pages. The paper develops a conceptual model of engagement behaviors, translates its components into measurable constructs and empirically investigates the effects of brand engagement on consumer engagement and among consumers in 2,740 Facebook brand pages. The second paper examines the impact of 64,347 webcare interventions embedded within 24,557 consumer conversations on Facebook brand Pages to determine whether type (proactive versus of reactive), voice (personal versus impersonal), timing (early versus late) and number (single versus multiple) of webcare interventions influence the volume and valence of consumer conversations. The third paper tackles the emotional perspective of consumer brand engagement. Drawing on emotional branding and contagion research, the paper examines the dynamics of emotional brand content and consumer reactions in 942 Facebook brand pages.

We were able to train both setups successfully using very little training data. The joint setup offers better performance, surpassing state-of-the-art with regards to n-gram-based scores while providing more relevant outputs.

Re-invigorating and re-defining the practice of qualitative inquiry within a business context
Creators: name: Keegan, Sheila
Publisher: name: University of Hertfordshire
Year: 2005

description: This thesis aims to develop new understanding of commercial qualitative research, informed primarily by thinking from complex responsive processes, social constructionism and the philosophy of social science, supported by approaches to validity and legitimacy which are epistemologically appropriate to this understanding. Commercial qualitative research has the over-riding aim of helping to guide the decision making of the commissioning client; its purpose - and the way in which it is evaluated- is, essentially, determined by its perceived usefulness, rather than methodological considerations. Until recently there has been little interest within the qualitative industry in theory that informs practice. One result of this pragmatism is conflicting paradigms; an unquestioned 'positivism' sitting alongside-and intermingled with-a variety of 'interpretivist' approaches. This has resulted in much confusion, contradiction and, I believe, has stunted the development of the qualitative research industry. This thesis explores the meaning of 'inquiry'; how research 'data', and the processes of making sense of this 'data', can be understood within a commercial research context. I propose a view of qualitative research -'emergent inquiry' -which is not hidebound by research structure but which involves a process of joint and evolving sense-making. Starting from the premise that reliability and validity (as understood in their scientific application) are inappropriate ways of understanding 'emergent inquiry', I explore an understanding of legitimacy which, I believe, is more appropriate to the inquiry method that I have outlined. My intention, in this doctoral research, is to strengthen theoretical understanding, practice and legitimisation of commercial qualitative research practice. Through challenging taken for granted assumptions, I am attempting to contribute to the ongoing development of professional practice; highlighting a different understanding of qualitative practice-'emergent inquiry' -with appropriate legitimisation, rather than 'borrowing' legitimacy from an inappropriate 'positivist' epistemology.

description: While for a long time iron based superconductors have been investigated looking at the average crystalline structure there is now growing interest on the divergence of local from the average structure. Here we use advanced data analysis of EXAFS, a fast and local probe, which has key advantages compared to crystallographic measurements, in unveiling the dynamics of the local structure. The results show that the Fe-As pair oscillates in the double-well potential both in undoped and in cobalt doped LaFeAsO crystals. The parameters and the characteristics of the double-well potential are determined by curve fits of the polarized EXAFS data. Temperature dependent Fe-As pair distribution and tunneling frequency are derived from selected model of two potential wells. We observe the softening of the Fe-As oscillations at the tetragonal to orthorhombic structural phase transition at 150 K in LaFeAsO. A weak broad softening is observed while decreasing the temperature from 70 to 40 K in superconducting LaFe0.89Co0.11AsO which could be correlated with the onset of short range charge density wave order.

Conceptions of nymphomania in British medicine 1790-1900

description: In nineteenth-century British medical discourse, nymphomania was understood as a disorder of excessive or insatiable erotic desire. It did not refer, as many assume, to a woman's frequent sexual intercourse. This thesis traces how excessive erotic desire in women constituted a somatic disorder in the eyes of physicians. It explores the central role accorded both the clitoris and beliefs about the female body in physicians' understanding of this disorder. Generations of physicians subscribed to the view that the clitoris was inherently dysfunctional, and that woman was innately prone to disorder. This examination seeks to understand why this was so. For physicians in the nineteenth century, nymphomania raised a number of contradictions. The incongruity they confronted arose from a clash between the legacy of medical thinking about woman they inherited, and social preoccupations of their age. Women were considered weak, irrational, lacking control and prone to immoderate erotic desire. Yet at the same time, they were expected to repress their natural urges, and strictly control their behaviour. Examining the way nymphomania was conceived offers insight into the complexities surrounding women's sexuality that so pervaded the nineteenth century. At the same time, it also shows how nineteenth century medical discourse not only supported dominant expectations about woman, but fundamentally challenged such ideals.

description: The evaluation of generic Cachazo-He-Yuan(CHY)-integrands is a big challenge and efficient computational methods are in demand for practical evaluation. In this paper, we propose a systematic decomposition algorithm by using cross-ratio identities, which provides an analytic and easy to implement method for the evaluation of any CHY-integrand. This algorithm aims to decompose a given CHY-integrand containing higher-order poles as a linear combination of CHY-integrands with only simple poles in a finite number of steps, which ultimately can be trivially evaluated by integration rules of simple poles. To make the method even more efficient for CHY-integrands with large number of particles and complicated higher-order pole structures, we combine the $Λ$-algorithm and the cross-ratio identities, and as a by-product it provides us a way to deal with CHY-integrands where the $Λ$-algorithm was not applicable in its original formulation.

description: Modification of proteins with polyubiquitin chains is a key regulatory mechanism to control cellular behavior and alterations in the ubiquitin system are linked to many diseases. Linear (M1-linked) polyubiquitin chains play pivotal roles in several cellular signaling pathways mediating immune and inflammatory responses and apoptotic cell death. These chains are formed by the linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex (LUBAC), a multiprotein E3 ligase that consists of 3 subunits, HOIP, HOIL-1L, and SHARPIN. Herein, we describe the discovery of inhibitors targeting the active site cysteine of the catalytic subunit HOIP using fragment-based covalent ligand screening. We report the synthesis of a diverse library of electrophilic fragments and demonstrate an integrated use of protein LC-MS, biochemical ubiquitination assays, chemical synthesis, and protein crystallography to enable the first structure-based development of covalent inhibitors for an RBR E3 ligase. Furthermore, using cell-based assays and chemoproteomics, we demonstrate that these compounds effectively penetrate mammalian cells to label and inhibit HOIP and NF-κB activation, making them suitable hits for the development of selective probes to study LUBAC biology. Our results illustrate the power of fragment-based covalent ligand screening to discover lead compounds for challenging targets, which holds promise to be a general approach for the development of cell-permeable inhibitors of thioester-forming E3 ubiquitin ligases.

description: We present three dimensional maps in monochromatic extinction $A_{\rm 0}$ and the extinction parameter $R_0$ within a few degrees of the Galactic plane. These are inferred using photometry from the Pan-STARRS1 and Spitzer Glimpse surveys of nearly $20$ million stars located in the region $l = 0-250^{\circ}$ and from $b = -4.5^{\circ}$ to $b=4.5^{\circ}$. Given the available stellar number density, we use an angular resolution of $7' \times 7'$ and steps of $1{\rm mag}$ in distance modulus. We simultaneously estimate distance modulus and effective temperature $T_{\rm eff}$ alongside the other parameters for stars individually using the method of \citet{Hanson2014} before combining these estimates to a complete map. The full maps are available via the MNRAS website.

High power continuous-wave frequency conversion in the visible and ultraviolet using diamond
Creators: name: Jasbeer, Hadiya
Publisher: name: Macquarie University

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Solid-state Raman lasers are a convenient technology for shifting the wavelength of conventional lasers to exotic wavelengths with enhanced brightness. Recently, diamond has emerged as an outstanding Raman medium due to its capacity for power handling with demonstrations of very high output powers (hundreds of watts) in the continuous wave regime. To date, these demonstrations have been performed in the near-infrared. However, t here is demand for continuous high brightness output at shorter wavelengths (visible and UV). This thesis aims to address this challenge by intracavity nonlinear frequency mixing. As nonlinear mixing is a polarization dependent process, the polarization behaviour of the Raman laser is critical to efficient operation. Thus as a first step, this thesis investigates the polarization properties of external cavity diamond Raman lasers including a detailed investigation of anomalous polarization effects that had been previously reported. In-grown stress-induced birefringence in the diamond is identified as critical to the polarization behaviour. Birefringence was characterized using Mueller polarimetry, a technique that provides a complete description of the Mueller matrix. Surprisingly, substantial circular retardance is observed in some locations of the sample and of sufficient magnitude to induce errors in measurements obtained using more standard polarimetric techniques such as Metripol. The analysis finds that most significant parameter influencing the laser performance is the linear birefringence axis direction. This parameter is found to dictate the threshold for laser operation and the polarization of the Stokes output. These outcomes provide a firm basis for selecting crystals, optimizing the input pump polarization. The knowledge was used to develop a high power intracavity frequency doubled CW diamond Raman laser operating in Quasi-CW mode. Using an external cavity Raman configuration and 1064 nm pumping, a 620 nm laser of output power 30W and M²<1.1, parameters that are difficult to achieve presently using any other laser technology. The critical design parameters that affects the visible conversion efficiency was evaluated experimentally. Furthermore, a model was developed to predict design parameters for optimum laser performance and power scaling. The concepts were also adapted to a DRL pumped at 532 nm. First Stokes output in the yellow (573 nm) was demonstrated with 15 W and 22.7% conversion efficiency. A model for the laser is presented to optimize efficiency and further increase power. The results were used to predict the design for deep-UV generation, a wavelength range that is otherwise very challenging to generate with high power in the CW regime.
