description: Direct comparisons between galaxy simulations and observations that both reach scales < 100 pc are strong tools to investigate the cloud-scale physics of star formation and feedback in nearby galaxies. Here we carry out such a comparison for hydrodynamical simulations of a Milky Way-like galaxy, including stochastic star formation, HII region and supernova feedback, and chemical post-processing at 8 pc resolution. Our simulation shows excellent agreement with almost all kpc-scale and larger observables, including total star formation rates, radial profiles of CO, HI, and star formation through the galactic disc, mass ratios of the ISM components, both whole-galaxy and resolved Kennicutt-Schmidt relations, and giant molecular cloud properties. However, we find that our simulation does not reproduce the observed de-correlation between tracers of gas and star formation on < 100 pc scales, known as the star formation 'uncertainty principle', which indicates that observed clouds undergo rapid evolutionary lifecycles. We conclude that the discrepancy is driven by insufficiently-strong pre-supernova feedback in our simulation, which does not disperse the surrounding gas completely, leaving star formation tracer emission too strongly associated with molecular gas tracer emission, inconsistent with observations. This result implies that the cloud-scale de-correlation of gas and star formation is a fundamental test for feedback prescriptions in galaxy simulations, one that can fail even in simulations that reproduce all other macroscopic properties of star-forming galaxies.

The IR spectral energy distribution of the Seyfert 2 prototype NGC 5252

description: The complete mid- to far- infrared continuum energy distribution collected with the Infrared Space Observatory of the Seyfert 2 prototype NGC 5252 is presented. ISOCAM images taken in the 3--15 micron range show a resolved central source that is consistent at all bands with a region of about 1.3 kpc in size. Due to the lack of on going star formation in the disk of the galaxy, this resolved emission is associated with either dust heated in the nuclear active region or with bremsstrahlung emission from the nuclear and extended ionised gas. The size of the mid-IR emission contrasts with the standard unification scenario envisaging a compact dusty structure surrounding and hiding the active nucleus and the broad-line region. The mid-IR data are complemented with ISOPHOT aperture photometry in the 25--200 micron range. The overall IR spectral energy distribution is dominated by a well-defined component peaking at about 100$ micron, a characteristic temperature of T ~20 K, and an associated dust mass of 2.5 x 10E7 Msun, which greatly dominates the total dust mass content of the galaxy. The heating mechanism of this dust is probably the interstellar radiation field. After subtracting the contribution of this cold dust component, the bulk of the residual emission is attributed to dust heated within the nuclear environment. Its luminosity consistently accounts for the reprocessing of the X-ray to UV emission derived for the nucleus of this galaxy. The comparison of NGC 5252 spectral energy distribution with current torus models favors large nuclear disk structure on the kiloparsec scale.

The basic needs approach : its place in planning for core needs in Bangladesh's development strategy
Creators: name: Ejazul Huq, K. M
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1981
Subjects: subject: Bangladesh Economic conditions
subject: Bangladesh Economic policy

description: This study is concerned with exploring the prospect of adopting the Basic Needs Approach as a tool of development strategy for Bangladesh. It is suggested that food, health and education constitute the core of a basic needs programme. Also, development planning should be reoriented to meet these core needs as a step to economic development. As a method of examining the magnitudes of these core needs at the end of the century, as a guidance to target-setting and planning, the study uses projections under varying assumptions. In this illustrative study attempts have been made to bring out the relevant policy directions. The major conclusion of this study is that the key to successfully meeting basic needs lie in curbing population growth, and increasing productivity of food output. Redistributing income in favour of the poor is obviously required but has not been explicitly examined in the study. The major policy implication is that detailed policies should be formulated and rigorously implemented for population control and raising productivity of the food sub-sector, aiming also at increasing the valueadded share of the poor.

A Resolution of the Cosmological Singularity with Orientifolds

description: We propose a new cosmological scenario which resolves the conventional initial singularity problem. The space-time geometry has an unconventional time-like singularity on a lower dimensional hypersurface, with localized energy density. The natural interpretation of this singularity in string theory is that of negative tension branes, for example the orientifolds of type II string theory. Space-time ends at the orientifolds, and it is divided in three regions: a contracting region with a future cosmological horizon; an intermediate region which ends at the orientifols; and an expanding region separated from the intermediate region by a past cosmological horizon. We study the geometry near the singularity of the proposed cosmological scenario in a specific string model. Using D-brane probes we confirm the interpretation of the brane singularity as an orientifold. The boundary conditions on the orientifolds and the past/future transition amplitudes are well defined. Assuming the trivial vacuum in the past, we derive a thermal spectrum in the future.

description: We investigate the role of non-uniform spatial density profiles of trapped atomic Bose-Einstein condensates in the propagation of Raman-matched laser pulses under conditions for electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT). We find that the sharp edged axial density profile of an interacting condensate (due to a balance between external trap and repulsive atomic interaction) is advantageous for obtaining ultra slow averaged group velocities. Our results are in good quantitative agreement with a recent experiment report [Nature {\bf 397}, 594 (1999)].

description: High-resolution, low-noise observations of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) planned for the near-future will enable new cosmological probes based on re-scattered CMB photons -- the secondary CMB. At the same time, enormous galaxy surveys will map out huge volumes of the observable Universe. Using the technique of kinetic Sunyaev Zel'dovich (kSZ) tomography these new probes can be combined to reconstruct the remote dipole field, the CMB dipole as observed from different vantage points in our Universe. The volume accessible to future galaxy surveys is large enough that general relativistic corrections to the observed distribution of galaxies must be taken into account. These corrections are interesting probes of gravity in their own right, but can also obscure potential signatures of primordial non-Gaussianity. In this paper, we demonstrate that correlations between the reconstructed remote dipole field and the observed galaxy number counts can in principle be used to detect general relativistic corrections. We show that neglecting general relativistic corrections leads to an $\mathcal{O}(1)$ bias on the inferred amplitude of primordial non-Gaussianity, $f_{\rm NL}$. In addition, we demonstrate that the reconstructed remote dipole field can provide useful constraining power on various bias parameters appearing in the galaxy number counts, and can significantly mitigate the effects of alignment bias.

Modern advances in genetic testing and molecular biology allow us the opportunity to efficiently identify these new candidate genes in previously unidentified cases of inherited arrhythmogenic diseases and potentially determine the molecular mechanisms that underlie them. Expanding our knowledge regarding these genotype-phenotype correlations will enable us to better assess risk and provide appropriate therapeutic avenues to best serve patients burdened with arrhythmogenic disease and identify and protect affected family members.

Star Formation and Metallicity History of the SDSS galaxy survey: unlocking the fossil record

description: Using MOPED we determine non-parametrically the star-formation and metallicity history of over 37,000 high-quality galaxy spectra from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) early data release. We use the entire spectral range, rather than concentrating on specific features, and we estimate the complete star formation history without prior assumptions about its form (by constructing so-called `population boxes'). The main results of this initial study are that the star formation rate in SDSS galaxies has been in decline for ~6 Gyr; a metallicity distribution for star-forming gas which is peaked ~3 Gyr ago at about solar metallicity, inconsistent with closed-box models, but consistent with infall models. We also determine the infall rate of gas in SDSS and show that it has been significant for the last 3 Gyr. We investigate errors using a Monte-Carlo Markov Chain algorithm. Further, we demonstrate that recovering star formation and metallicity histories for such a large sample becomes intractable without data compression methods, particularly the exploration of the likelihood surface. By exploring the whole likelihood surface we show that age-metallicity degeneracies are not as severe as by using only a few spectral features. We find that 65% of galaxies contain a significant old population (with an age of at least 8 Gyr), including recent starburst galaxies, and that over 97% have some stars older than 2 Gyr. It is the first time that the past star formation history has been determined from the fossil record of the present-day spectra of galaxies.

description: Biochar production from biomass is a promising solution to tackle the energy and environmental challenges of rural China such as air pollution, soil contamination and degradation, sustainable agricultural waste management, and climate change. Small- and medium-scale (a few kW to 3 MW) gasification systems consisting of a gasification reactor and a gas engine had an energy efficiency of 15–20% and large-scale (>5 MW) systems via an integrated gasification combined cycle had an electrical efficiency of 26–30%. Low system efficiencies and high costs incurred by collection, transport, and pretreatment are some of the major barriers to the economic feasibility of biochar production systems in China. Mobile systems or distributed biochar production systems serve as promising solutions to reduce the biomass cost by utilizing locally generated waste biomass and catering for the bioenergy and biochar demands of local rural communities. From an energy application perspective, biochar production systems can generate heat and electricity, and biochar can serve as an energy storage material in supercapacitors and rechargeable batteries systems and can be used in anaerobic digestion to enhance overall energy recovery. Biochar can be used to achieve carbon sequestration and remediation of soil, and odor control in livestock farms. Systems converting locally generated biomass into energy and biochar that are used by local villages wait to be tested to clarify the intricacies of their viability and large-scale environmental and energy impacts in rural China.

description: We report the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) discovery of two Ly$α$ blobs (LABs), dubbed z70-1 and z49-1 at $z=6.965$ and $z=4.888$ respectively, that are Ly$α$ emitters with a bright ($\log L_{\rm Lyα}/{\rm [erg\ s^{-1}]}>43.4$) and spatially-extended Ly$α$ emission, and present the photometric and spectroscopic properties of a total of seven LABs; the two new LABs and five previously-known LABs at $z=5.7-6.6$. The z70-1 LAB shows the extended Ly$α$ emission with a scale length of $1.4\pm 0.2$ kpc, about three times larger than the UV continuum emission, making z70-1 the most distant LAB identified to date. All of the 7 LABs, except z49-1, exhibit no AGN signatures such as X-ray emission, {\sc Nv}$λ$1240 emission, or Ly$α$ line broadening, while z49-1 has a strong {\sc Civ}$λ$1548 emission line indicating an AGN on the basis of the UV-line ratio diagnostics. We carefully model the point-spread functions of the HSC images, and conduct two-component exponential profile fitting to the extended Ly$α$ emission of the LABs. The Ly$α$ scale lengths of the core (star-forming region) and the halo components are $r_{\rm c}=0.6-1.2$ kpc and $r_{\rm h}=2.0-13.8$ kpc, respectively. The average $r_{\rm h}$ of the LABs falls on the extrapolation of the $r_{\rm h}$-Ly$α$ luminosity relation of the Ly$α$ halos around VLT/MUSE star-forming galaxies at the similar redshifts, suggesting that typical LABs at $z\gtrsim5$ are not special objects, but star-forming galaxies at the bright end.

description: In quantum electrodynamics, photon--photon scattering can be the result of the exchange of virtual electron--positron pairs. Effectively, this gives rise to self-interaction terms in Maxwell's equations, similar to the nonlinearities due to polarization in nonlinear optics. These self-interaction terms vanish in the limit of parallel propagating waves. However if the modes generated in bounded regions are used, there will be a non-zero total effect. We show that stationary two-dimensional light bullets can form in guiding structures, due to the balancing effect of quantum electrodynamical vacuum nonlinearities on dispersion and diffraction. These light bullets are unstable and exhibit the possibility of self-focusing collapse. The consequences of our results are also discussed.

description: The sex pheromone of Ectropis grisescens, one of the primary defoliator insects of tea plantations, has been identified, but its trapping parameters have not been optimized for field application. In this study, we investigated the effects of pheromone dose, trap height and trap type on the effectiveness of trapping E. grisescens in the field. Our results show that the optimal pheromone dose is 800 μg. The bucket-funnel trap hung 40 cm below the tea canopy had the highest trapping efficiency. This study establishes optimized parameters for the pheromone trapping of E. grisescens in tea plantations.

description: We present charged particle densities as a function of pseudorapidity and collision centrality for the 197Au+197Au reaction at sqrt{s_{NN}}=130 GeV. An integral charged particle multiplicity of 3860+/-300 is found for the 5% most central events within the pseudorapidity range -4.7 <= eta <= 4.7. At mid-rapidity an enhancement in the particle yields per participant nucleon pair is observed for central events. Near to the beam rapidity, a scaling of the particle yields consistent with the ``limiting fragmentation'' picture is observed. Our results are compared to other recent experimental and theoretical discussions of charged particle densities in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions.

description: A quantity known as the contact plays a fundamental role in quantum many-body systems with short-range interactions. The determination of the temperature dependence of the contact for the unitary Fermi gas of infinite scattering length has been a major challenge, with different calculations yielding qualitatively different results. Here we use finite-temperature auxiliary-field quantum Monte Carlo (AFMC) methods on the lattice within the canonical ensemble to calculate the temperature dependence of the contact for the homogeneous spin-balanced unitary Fermi gas. We extrapolate to the continuum limit for 40, 66, and 114 particles. We observe a dramatic decrease in the contact as the superfluid critical temperature is approached from below, followed by a gradual weak decrease as the temperature increases in the normal phase. Our results are in excellent agreement with the most recent precision ultracold atomic gas experiments. We also present results for the energy of the unitary gas as a function of temperature in the continuum limit.

description: Many panel data have the latent subgroup effect on individuals, and it is important to correctly identify these groups since the efficiency of resulting estimators can be improved significantly by pooling the information of individuals within each group. However, the currently assumed parametric and semiparametric relationship between the response and predictors may be misspecified, which leads to a wrong grouping result, and the nonparametric approach hence can be considered to avoid such mistakes. Moreover, the response may depend on predictors in different ways at various quantile levels, and the corresponding grouping structure may also vary. To tackle these problems, this article proposes a nonparametric quantile regression method for homogeneity pursuit in panel data models with individual effects, and a pairwise fused penalty is used to automatically select the number of groups. The asymptotic properties are established, and an ADMM algorithm is also developed. The finite sample performance is evaluated by simulation experiments, and the usefulness of the proposed methodology is further illustrated by an empirical example.

description: We evaluated the effects of fatty acid (FA) supplement blends containing 60% palmitic acid (C16:0) and either 30% stearic acid (C18:0) or 30% oleic acid (cis-9 C18:1) on nutrient digestibility and milk production of low and high producing dairy cows. Twenty-four multiparous Holstein cows (118 ± 44 DIM) were divided into two blocks by milk production and then randomly assigned to treatment sequence in four 3×3 Latin squares within production level, balanced for carryover effects in 3 consecutive 21-d periods. Cows were blocked by milk yield and assigned to one of two groups (n=12/group): a) low group (42.5 ± 3.54 kg/day; 147 ± 42 DIM) and b) high group (55.8 ± 3.04 kg/day; 101 ± 34 DIM). Commercially available fat supplements were combined to provide treatments that consisted of: 1) control (CON; diet with no supplemental FA), 2) FA supplement blend containing 60% C16:0 and 30% C18:0 (PA+SA), and 3) FA supplement blend containing 60% C16:0 and 30% cis-9 C18:1 (PA+OA) The FA blends were fed at 1.5% DM and replaced soyhulls in CON. Preplanned contrasts were (1) overall effect of FA treatments [CON vs. the average of the FA treatments (FAT); 1/2 (PA+SA + PA+OA)], and (2) effect of FA supplement (PA+SA vs. PA+OA). Regardless of production level, overall FAT reduced DMI compared with CON. Also, regardless of level of milk production, PA+OA increased total tract FA digestibility compared with PA+SA. Treatment by production level interactions were observed for NDF digestibility, total FA intake, and the yields of 3.5% FCM, ECM, and milk fat. In low-producing cows, FAT increased DM and NDF digestibility compared with CON. In high-producing cows PA+SA increased DM and NDF digestibility compared with PA+OA. In low-producing cows, PA+SA increased 3.5% FCM, ECM, and milk fat yield compared with PA+OA. However, in high-producing cows PA+OA tended to increase 3.5% FCM compared with PA+SA.In conclusion, low-producing cows responded better to a FA blend containing 60% C16:0 and 30% C18:0, whereas high-producing dairy cows responded more favorably to a FA blend containing 60% C16:0 and 30% cis-9 C18:1. However, further research is required to validate our observations that higher-yielding cows have improved production responses when supplemented with cis-9 C18:1 compared to C18:0.

description: The manipulation of small objects with light has become an indispensable tool in many areas of research ranging from physics to biology and medicine. Here we demonstrate how to implement micro-manipulation at the optimal level of efficiency for targets of arbitrary shape and inside complex environments such as disordered media. Our approach is to design wave-fronts in the far-field that have optimal properties in the near-field of the target such as to apply to it the strongest possible force, pressure or torque as well as to achieve the most efficient focus at the target position. Free of any iterative optimization, our approach only relies on a simple eigenvalue problem established from the scattering matrix of the system and its dependence on the target parameters. To illustrate this theoretical concept, we perform a proof-of-principle experiment in the microwave regime, which fully confirms our predictions.

Sensitivity of Transit Searches to Habitable Planets

description: Photon-limited transit surveys in V band are in principle about 20 times more sensitive to planets of fixed size in the habitable zone around M stars than G stars. In I band the ratio is about 400. The advantages that the habitable zone lies closer and that the stars are smaller (together with the numerical superiority of M stars) more than compensate for the reduced signal due to the lower luminosity of the later-type stars. That is, M stars can yield reliable transit detections at much fainter apparent magnitudes than G stars. However, to achieve this greater sensitivity, the later-type stars must be monitored to these correspondingly fainter magnitudes, which can engender several practical problems. We show that with modest modifications, the Kepler mission could extend its effective sensitivity from its current M_V=6 to M_V=9. This would not capture the whole M dwarf peak, but would roughly triple its sensitivity to Earth-like planets in the habitable zone. However, to take advantage of the huge bump in the sensitivity function at M_V=12 would require major changes.

description: This course consists of two lectures. In the first lecture I discuss why a non perturbative formulation of QCD is needed, and I show that lattice formulation copes with this need, even if it mainly produces numerical results. In the second lecture I discuss how lattice can help to understand the deconfinement transition.Such understanding is also important to predict parameters that can help in the interpretation of heavy ions high energy experiments.

The patriote convicts : a study of the 1838 rebellion in Lower Canada and the transportation of some participants to New South Wales

description: The patriote convicts were transported from Lower Canada to New South Wales after their participation in the 1838 Rebellion. It is contended in this thesis that a prosopographical study, both literary and statistical, of these convicts - a limited but representative group - reveals the motivation of the rebels better than a demographical study of all participants. Many of those taking up arms in the parishes south of Montreal in November 1838 were motivated by a deeply felt sense of injustice. Some were angered by the savage suppression of their compatriots after the failure of the 1837 Rebellion. For others who saw the gradual breakdown of their habitant, traditional life (in Beauharnois particularly), the 1838 Rebellion should be more accurately termed a social riot. This study also brings to light many other aspects of the Rebellion period usually ignored in the standard texts. The prosopographical microscope reveals, for example, the political manipulation which lay behind the subsequent Courts Martial. The study of the patriote convicts' experiences and perceptions of life in New South Wales reveals a great deal about the convict period. Pain, which is an integral part of human life, has been a curiously ignored subject for social historians - particularly that felt by the convict settlers of early Australia. While it is well recognised that there was an excessive amount of flogging, for example, few have worried about the effects such brutality had on the lives and values of the convicts and the possible legacies to Australian identity from such men and women. The patriote convicts felt intense agony when forcibly dislocated from their loved families and country. This thesis documents that pain and the efforts made by the convicts from Lower Canada to remain unaffected by the brutality in early Sydney and it raises questions about the legacy of pain on the emerging Australian character.

Non-adiabatically detecting the geometric phase of the macroscopic quantum state with symmetric SQUID

description: We give a simple way to detect the geometric phase shift and the conditional geometric phase shift with Josephson junction system. Comparing with the previous work(Falcl G, Fazio R, Palma G.M., Siewert J and Verdal V, {\it Nature} {\bf 407}, 355(2000)), our scheme has two advantages. We use the non-adiabatic operation, thus the detection is less affected by the decoherence. Also, we take the time evolution on zero dynamic phase loop, we need not take any extra operation to cancel the dynamic phase.

description: We study simulation and quantum resources in the setting of the sheaf-theoretic approach to contextuality and non-locality. Resources are viewed behaviourally, as empirical models. In earlier work, a notion of morphism for these empirical models was proposed and studied. We generalize and simplify the earlier approach, by starting with a very simple notion of morphism, and then extending it to a more useful one by passing to a co-Kleisli category with respect to a comonad of measurement protocols. We show that these morphisms capture notions of simulation between empirical models obtained via `free' operations in a resource theory of contextuality, including the type of classical control used in measurement-based quantum computation schemes.

description: Spectroscopic observations covering the wavelength range 3600--4600Åare presented for a large flare on the late type M dwarf AT Mic (dM4.5e). A procedure to estimate the physical parameters of the flaring plasma has been used which assumes a simplified slab model of the flare based on a comparison of observed and computed Balmer decrements. With this procedure we have determined the electron density, electron temperature, optical thickness and temperature of the underlying source for the impulsive and gradual phases of the flare. The magnitude and duration of the flare allows us to trace the physical parameters of the response of the lower atmosphere. In order to check our derived values we have compared them with other methods. In addition, we have also applied our procedure to a stellar and a solar flare for which parameters have been obtained using other techniques.

description: We present ~1" resolution (~2 kpc in the source plane) observations of the CO(1-0), CO(3-2), Halpha, and [N II] lines in the strongly-lensed z=2.26 star-forming galaxy SDSS J0901+1814. We use these observations to constrain the lensing potential of a foreground group of galaxies, and our source-plane reconstructions indicate that SDSS J0901+1814 is a nearly face-on (i~30 degrees) massive disk with r_{1/2}>~4 kpc for its molecular gas. Using our new magnification factors (mu_tot~30), we find that SDSS J0901+1814 has a star formation rate (SFR) of 268^{+63}_{-61} M_sun/yr, M_gas=(1.6^{+0.3}_{-0.2})x10^11x(alpha_CO/4.6) M_sun, and M_star=(9.5^{+3.8}_{-2.8})x10^10 M_sun, which places it on the star-forming galaxy "main sequence." We use our matched high-angular resolution gas and SFR tracers (CO and Halpha, respectively) to perform a spatially resolved (pixel-by-pixel) analysis of SDSS J0901+1814 in terms of the Schmidt-Kennicutt relation. After correcting for the large fraction of obscured star formation (SFR_Halpha/SFR_TIR=0.054^{+0.015}_{-0.014}), we find SDSS J0901+1814 is offset from "normal" star-forming galaxies to higher star formation efficiencies independent of assumptions for the CO-to-H_2 conversion factor. Our mean best-fit index for the Schmidt-Kennicutt relation for SDSS J0901+1814, evaluated with different CO lines and smoothing levels, is n=1.54+/-0.13; however, the index may be affected by gravitational lensing, and we find n=1.24+/-0.02 when analyzing the source-plane reconstructions. While the Schmidt-Kennicutt index largely appears unaffected by which of the two CO transitions we use to trace the molecular gas, the source-plane reconstructions and dynamical modeling suggest that the CO(1-0) emission is more spatially extended than the CO(3-2) emission.
