description: The major depressive disorder has drawn wide attention and has been researched for decades in the fields of psychology, and many factors that may have significantly high correlations with depression were discovered and proposed. However, the relationship between these variables and depression during a world-wide epidemic of infectious diseases is unclear. This paper mainly focuses on the relationship between self-control, self-esteem, multiple demographic information, and depression among students of different educational levels during the quarantine of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic in Xiamen City, China. The significant gender and age differences on the score of self-control, the score of self-esteem, and the severity of depression for participants in either proportional of or the whole data are observed. Moreover, several solid correlations were discovered between the score of self-control, the score of self-esteem, and the severity of depression. The final model suggested the significant influence of the participants’ current educational level, parents’ marriage status, relationship with parents, electronic devices usage, score of self-control, and score of self-esteem on their severity of depression. The results of this study may draw parents’ attention to the mental health, especially depression, of young people during COVID-19 pandemic; moreover, it is imperative for the psychological professionals or educational practitioners to conduct prevention and intervention of mentally abnormal conditions in schools.

description: Universal scaling terms occurring in Renyi entanglement entropies have the potential to bring new understanding to quantum critical points in free and interacting systems. Quantitative comparisons between analytical continuum theories and numerical calculations on lattice models play a crucial role in advancing such studies. In this paper, we exactly calculate the universal two-cylinder shape dependence of entanglement entropies for free bosons on finite-size square lattices, and compare to approximate functions derived in the continuum using several different ansatzes. Although none of these ansatzes are exact in the thermodynamic limit, we find that numerical fits are in good agreement with continuum functions derived using the AdS/CFT correspondence, an extensive mutual information model, and a quantum Lifshitz model. We use fits of our lattice data to these functions to calculate universal scalars defined in the thin-cylinder limit, and compare to values previously obtained for the free boson field theory in the continuum.

description: American culture at large is saturated with images of war and war making. Dialogues about war, and cultural productions that are informed by war, continue to persist in the popular consciousness, creating a sense of "distant intimacy" between the American public and their relationship to warfare. This sense of militarism is ubiquitous, yet the paradox remains - Americans have become increasingly dislocated from the substantive processes of waging war. A new culture of war has emerged, evidenced through the transformations between military, civilian, and corporate spheres of interest. The question should be asked - what does "total war" mean for the twenty - first century? This thesis will argue that a concept of "remoteness" characterizes the complexion of "total war" in America's recent history. "Remoteness " informs how warfare is waged and conceived in a "post - heroic" era. Furthermore, this thesis will explore the complexity, significance, implications, and functions of these symptoms of "remoteness," as they resonate within the broader historical consciousness of America's contested cultural imagination - a survey of the cultural experiences of "total war." Finally, this project seeks to address and reconfigure our understandings of how a culture of war underpins some of the most fundamental questions that inform identity and citizenship in the United States.

A theory of shame: from trauma to self development
Creators: name: Thomas, Deborah Judith
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: This thesis draws upon a wide range of psychoanalytic, evolutionary, functional, developmental and social perspectives in order to present an integrated theory of shame. From within the body of shame literature, uniformities, disagreements and conflicts are identified and reviewed. By theoretically and empirically distinguishing shame from its close relative, guilt, the defining characteristics of shame are identified; most notably its intimate relationship to the global self. By then identifying those aspects of the self most pertinent to the phenomenology of shame, this theory is both theoretically and empirically extended to include perspectives from within trauma, neurobiology, self psychological, defense mechanism, and developmental fields of study. -- The impact of shame on the self in terms of bodily experience and the doubling of consciousness is argued to be highly detrimental. Theoretical analyses identify a pattern of dissolution to lower levels of experience and functioning, such that the highest levels of both consciousness and autonomic nervous system functioning are replaced by the engagement of evolutionarily more primitive operational levels. Empirical studies also identified shame as having a similarly regressive impact on the senses of self-cohesion and continuity in time, as well as disrupting attachment bonds and eliciting the engagement of primitive defense mechanisms. -- In contrast, in spite of its immediate detrimental impact, shame was also found to hold the potential, over time, to facilitate important developmental enhancements; promoting self-awareness and self-knowledge, as well as contributing to the development of a range of both intrapersonal and interpersonal functions. -- Throughout the thesis, an important distinction is made between state shame (the actual affect) and shame-proneness (a characterological disposition), with particular emphasis on the ubiquity of shame as a normal, healthy human experience which is independent of dispositional shame-proneness. Moreover, it is argued that the distinction between immature, dysfunctional shame and mature, healthy shame forms the foundation for the elucidation of a developmental theory of shame. Specifically, this theory identifies the points of divergence in the developmental trajectories of healthy shame and the two most extreme forms of shame-based psychopathology; shame-proneness and shamelessness. The thesis concludes with the identification of a range of clinical and research implications based on the theoretical and empirical data presented.

description: We propose a novel method of determination of the dust particle spatial distribution in dust clouds that form in three-dimensional (3D) complex plasmas under microgravity conditions. The method utilizes the data obtained during the 3D scanning of a cloud and provides a reasonably good accuracy. Based on this method, we investigate the particle density in a dust cloud realized in gas discharge plasma in the PK-3 Plus setup onboard the International Space Station. We find that the treated dust clouds are both anisotropic and inhomogeneous. One can isolate two regimes, in which a stationary dust cloud can be observed. At low pressures, the particle density decreases monotonically with the increase of the distance from the discharge center; at higher pressures, the density distribution has a shallow minimum. Regardless of the regime, we detect a cusp of the distribution at the void boundary and a slowly varying density at larger distances (in the foot region). A theoretical interpretation of obtained results is developed that leads to reasonable estimates of the densities for both the cusp and foot. The modified ionization equation of state, which allows for violation of the local quasineutrality in the cusp region, predicts the spatial distributions of ion and electron densities to be measured in future experiments.

Radar emitter recognition using hierarchical feature extraction within magnitude and frequency domains
Creators: name: Newport, Robert A.
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Radar Emitter Recognition (RER) is used in Electronic Warfare (EW) to avoid being detected during stealth operations, or to detect specific radar installations for targeting in an offensive campaign.Its role in both offensive and defensive measures make it a critical component within the scope of a larger Electronic Countermeasure (ECM) strategy. Radar spectrograms are captured from emissions, measuring frequency and power over time. The emission samples vary in the amount of time spent in each frequency, making a single approach to feature extraction ineffective. This thesis attempts to address RER challenges using modified radar signals from spectrograms sampled from five different classes, each containing 250 unique examples. A hierarchical approach is used where spectrograms with fewer time intervals have their features extracted from the magnitude spectrum, while signals with more time intervals have features extracted from the frequency domain. Both of these feature extraction methods are tested using k-Nearest Neighbor (kNN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithms. Experiments show that the hierarchical approach to feature extractionis a viable new way of thinking about spectrogram based RER.

description: Recently, we developed an effective theory of pions and a light dilatonic meson for gauge theories with spontaneously broken chiral symmetry that are close to the conformal window. The pion mass term in this effective theory depends on an exponent $y$. We derive the transformation properties under dilatations of the renormalized fermion mass, and use this to rederive $y=3-γ_m^*$, where $γ_m^*$ is fixed-point value of the mass anomalous dimension at the sill of the conformal window. This value for $y$ is consistent with the trace anomaly of the underlying near-conformal gauge theory.

description: We present the spatially resolved star formation history (SFH) of the Carina dwarf spheroidal galaxy, obtained from deep, wide-field g,r imaging and a metallicity distribution from the literature. Our photometry covers $\sim2$ deg$^2$, reaching up to $\sim10$ times the half-light radius of Carina with a completeness higher than $50\%$ at $g\sim24.5$, more than one magnitude fainter than the oldest turnoff. This is the first time a combination of depth and coverage of this quality has been used to derive the SFH of Carina, enabling us to trace its different populations with unprecedented accuracy. We find that Carina's SFH consists of two episodes well separated by a star formation temporal gap. These episodes occurred at old ($>10$ Gyr) and intermediate ($2$-$8$ Gyr) ages. Our measurements show that the old episode comprises the majority of the population, accounting for $54\pm5\%$ of the stellar mass within $1.3$ times the King tidal radius, while the total stellar mass derived for Carina is $1.60\pm0.09\times 10^{6} M_{\rm{\odot}}$, and the stellar mass-to-light ratio $1.8\pm0.2$. The SFH derived is consistent with no recent star formation which hints that the observed blue plume is due to blue stragglers. We conclude that the SFH of Carina evolved independently of the tidal field of the Milky Way, since the frequency and duration of its star formation events do not correlate with its orbital parameters. This result is supported by the age/metallicity relation observed in Carina, and the gradients calculated indicating that outer regions are older and more metal poor.

Accommodating Sharia: : A Feminist Institutionalist Analysis of Sharia law in Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom
Creators: name: Aftab, Amira
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: The debates around Sharia law in Western multicultural societies are ongoing, and often draw on feminist arguments opposing multiculturalism to illustrate the "perils" of accommodating minority religious groups. An alternative focus of Sharia discussions is to consider the possibilities of legal pluralism within the state, and whether accommodation of minority religious laws is even possible. Whilst interesting, these debates do not adequately address how and why Sharia councils and tribunals have seemingly flourished in the United Kingdom, but not so in the comparable multicultural contexts of Australia and Canada. This thesis moves beyond the existing discussions of legal pluralism and the normative value of multiculturalism to examine the competing political interests that arise in debates around accommodating religious laws (specifically Sharia law), and the issues of gender equality. Drawing on theories of feminist institutionalism, I will offer a comparative analysis of the political conditions within Australia, Canada, and the UK. The key questions explored are: how has each institution influenced the experience with Sharia in each state; and what are the outcomes for women that arise within the institutional landscape. This institutional discussion will focus on two formal institutions, the legal structures of each state, and state multicultural policies; as well as two informal institutions, the influence of dominant Christian religious groups, and informal networks of men. These formal and informal institutions are examined to provide context, and better understand the development of the Sharia debate and experience in each country, as well as the outcomes for women. State law is often positioned within these debates as the "best" alternative for gender justice, as it is considered secular and "neutral". However, this fails to account for the reality that institutions, such as the law, are gendered. By adopting a feminist institutionalist approach, this thesis aims to move beyond the liberal rights framework that is typically used to discuss Muslim women and Sharia in the West. By doing so, we are better able to understand the institutional nuances that shape the experience with Sharia within countries such as Australia, Canada and the UK.

description: The use of laser pulse sequences to drive the cascaded difference frequency generation of high energy, high peak-power and multi-cycle terahertz pulses in cryogenically cooled periodically poled lithium niobate is proposed. Detailed simulations considering the coupled nonlinear interaction of terahertz and optical waves show that unprecedented optical-to-terahertz energy conversion efficiencies > 5%, peak electric fields of hundred(s) of Mega volts/meter at terahertz pulse durations of hundred(s) of picoseconds can be achieved. The proposed methods are shown to circumvent laser-induced damage at Joule-level pumping by 1$μ$m lasers to enable multi-cycle terahertz sources with pulse energies >> 10 milli-joules. Various pulse sequence formats are proposed and analyzed. Numerical calculations for periodically poled structures accounting for cascaded difference frequency generation, self-phase-modulation, cascaded second harmonic generation and laser induced damage are introduced. Unprecedented studies of the physics governing terahertz generation in this high conversion efficiency regime, limitations and practical considerations are discussed. Varying the poling period along the crystal length and further reduction of absorption is shown to lead to even higher energy conversion efficiencies >>10%. An analytic formulation valid for arbitrary pulse formats and closed-form expressions for important cases are presented. Parameters optimizing conversion efficiency in the 0.1-1 THz range, the corresponding peak electric fields, crystal lengths and terahertz pulse properties are furnished.

Subjects: subject: Superconductivity (cond-mat.supr-con)

description: Multi-gap superconductors exhibit interesting properties. In an $N$-gap superconductor, we have in general $U(1)^N$ phase invariance. This multiple-phase invariance is partially or totally spontaneously broken in a superconductor. The Nambu-Goldstone modes, as well as Higgs modes, are important and will play an important role in multi-condensate superconductors. The additional phase invariance leads to a new quantum phase, with help of frustrated Josephson effects, such as the time-reversal symmetry breaking, the emergence of massless modes and fractionally quantized-flux vortices. There is a possibility that half-flux vortices exist in two-component superconductors in a magnetic field. The half-quantum flux vortex can be interpreted as a monopole, and two half-flux vortices form a bound state connected by a domain wall. There is an interesting analogy between quarks and fractionally quantized-flux vortices in superconductors.

description: High-resolution observations in the region, centered at 4400 Å and those of the lines HeII 4686, Hbeta and HeI 6678 of the spectrum of the symbiotic binary Z And were performed during its outburst in 2006. The line Hbeta had additional satellite high-velocity emission components situated on either side of its central peak. The lines of neutral helium presented two components, consisting of a nebular emission situated close to the reference wavelength and a highly variable P Cyg absorption. Close to the optical maximum the line HeII 4686 was weak emission feature, but with the fading of the light it changed into an intensive emission consisting of a central narrow component and a broad component with a low intensity. The lines of NIII and CIII were very broadened. We demonstrate that all of these groups of lines with very different profiles can be interpreted in the light of the same model, where a disc-shaped material surrounding the compact object collimates its stellar wind and gives rise to bipolar outflow.

An investigation of cryptomarkets: assessing the online drugs trade from the perspectives of Australian health and law enforcement agencies
Creators: name: Nasseri, Romal
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: The development of cryptomarkets is a new criminological phenomenon. Cryptomarkets are defined as a platform that operates on an encrypted part of the Internet and enables its users to anonymously communicate and conduct illicit transactions. This research analyses cryptomarkets through current Australian drug policy. The findings of this research reveal that different organisations such as law enforcement agencies and the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare have different perspectives and priorities when exploring the operations of cryptomarkets. These agencies often have contradictory views when analysing drug-related issues through current Australian drug policy, as they have different agendas on how those issues should be addressed. From the perspective of law enforcement agencies, it is necessary to disrupt the infrastructure of cryptomarkets and prevent people from conducting illicit transactions. However, from the perspective of the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, disrupting cryptomarkets would have negative consequences for the Australian Government and Australian communities. In conclusion, this research argues that although cryptomarkets are a transformative platform that enables individuals to conduct illicit transactions, they should not be disrupted because they offer a less violent alternative to conventional drug distribution networks.
Antiprotons from dark matter annihilation through light mediators and a possible excess in AMS-02 $\bar{p}/p$ data

description: We show that in the scenario where dark matter (DM) particles annihilate through light mediators, the energy spectra of the final state cosmic-ray particles depend strongly on the mediator mass. For final state antiprotons, a spectrum with relatively narrow peak occurs when the mediator mass is comparable to the $\pbar p$ production threshold. Of interest, the latest AMS-02 data on the $\pbar/p$ flux ratio hint at a bump-like excess over the expected background in the energy range $\sim100-450$ GeV. We show that such a light mediator scenario is favoured by the latest AMS-02 data over the scenarios of DM direct annihilation into the standard model particles and that of antiprotons produced from inside supernova remnants (SNRs), and is consistent with the upper limits derived from the Fermi-LAT data on the gamma rays towards the dwarf spheroidal galaxies. The $\pbar/p$ flux ratio with energy above 450 GeV is predicted to fall with energy quickly, which can be easily distinguished from the other two scenarios as they predict the ratio to be flattening or rising up to multi-TeV region.

Tactile disgust

description: Tactile objects are reported to be important elicitors of disgust. However, only two studies have assessed what makes objects disgusting to touch. The first found that softness and wetness were disgust eliciting, and the second that oily and sticky textures could also elicit disgust (Oum et al., 2011; Skolnick, 2013). As these studies manipulated only a few tactile qualities, the ability of other qualities to elicit disgust remains untested. Further, it is unclear if one’s belief about what the object is (and the disease-risk it poses) influences disgust. Thus, two questions remain unanswered about tactile disgust. First, what is the full range of tactile qualities which elicit disgust, and second, is tactile disgust influenced by belief of what the elicitor is, and the disease risk it poses? To answer these questions, 120 participants aged 17 to 42 were asked to feel a range of objects, which represented the major tactile qualities (i.e., sticky, hard, soft, oily, lumpy, viscous, wet, grainy, cold, warm), and rate how the objects felt (i.e., how sticky, hard, etc., it was), how the objects made them feel (i.e., disgust, fear and other emotions), and their disease risk belief (primarily how sick they thought the objects would make them). There were four groups, one could see the objects and the other three could not. To assess if participants’ belief about what they were touching influenced disgust, labelling was used on participants who could not see the objects. Objects were either disgust labelled, truly labelled or not labelled and participants reported what they thought they were touching. The results show sticky and wet textures are highly disgust eliciting, and viscosity, cold and lumpy also elicit disgust (but to a lesser extent). This suggests the adherence-quality of objects predicts disgust. Further, labelling had a significant impact, with the Disgust-Label group having the highest disgust and fear ratings, and belief the objects would make them sick. Fear and sickness belief were powerful predictors of tactile disgust and explained the increased disgust in the Disgust-Label group. The results argue for a comprehensive model oftactile disgust, which takes into account sensory-level features and disease-risk beliefs.

description: Effects of wave-wave interactions on ocean swell are studied. Results of extensive simulations of swell evolution within the duration-limited setup for the kinetic Hasselmann equation at long times up to $10^6$ seconds are presented. Basic solutions of the theory of weak turbulence, the so-called Kolmogorov-Zakharov solutions, are shown to be relevant to the results of the simulations. Features of self-similarity of wave spectra are detailed and their impact on methods of ocean swell monitoring are discussed. Essential drop of wave energy (wave height) due to wave-wave interactions is found to be pronounced at initial stages of swell evolution (of order of 1000 km for typical parameters of the ocean swell). At longer times wave-wave interactions are responsible for a universal angular distribution of wave spectra in a wide range of initial conditions.

Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Instrumentation and Methods for Astrophysics (astro-ph.IM)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: HfS is a tool to fit the hyperfine structure of spectral lines, with multiple velocity components. The HfS_nh3 procedures included in HfS fit simultaneously the hyperfine structure of the NH$_3$ (J,K)= (1,1) and (2,2) transitions, and perform a standard analysis to derive $T_\mathrm{ex}$, NH$_3$ column density, $T_\mathrm{rot}$, and $T_\mathrm{k}$. HfS uses a Monte Carlo approach for fitting the line parameters. Especial attention is paid to the derivation of the parameter uncertainties. HfS includes procedures that make use of parallel computing for fitting spectra from a data cube.

Is 'Sexual' a Sub-type of Disgust, or is it a Separate Basic Emotion?
Creators: name: Hardwick, Kate
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Disgust is a crucial emotion that guides a variety of avoidance and rejection behaviours in humans. These avoidance behaviours function to keep us safe from potentially harmful stimuli. A current adaptationist theory proposes three distinct sub-types of disgust based on their unique adaptive function, called the 'Three Domains of Disgust,' (pathogen, moral and sexual) (Tybur et al, 2013). The function of pathogen disgust is to maintain physical health through the avoidance of infectious and disease-causing agents; the function of moral disgust is to maintain group cohesion by avoiding or punishing moral transgressors and the function of sexual disgust promotes reproductive success through the avoidance of unfit mating opportunities. The theory holds that moral and sexual disgust co-opted pathogen disgust mechanisms to solve new adaptive problems. According to discrete emotion theory, subtypes of a basic emotion share: neural profiles, physiological and behavioural signatures. Therefore, if moral and sexual disgust co-opted pathogen disgust mechanisms, then common behavioural and neural mechanisms should emerge in response to stimuli in the three domains. In this thesis, I undertake four experiments to explore the behavioural and neural correlates of the three domains of disgust. I use linguistic stimuli and manipulate the semantic properties of sentences and words such that each category induces disgust, although still resembling its distinct sub-type. Overall, the results from each experiment reveal that the sexual category differs from both pathogen and moral categories. I tentatively propose that the sexual response is not a form of disgust but could be considered a distinct discrete emotion.

description: Energy levels of 30 low-lying states of Lu2+ and allowed electric-dipole matrix elements between these states are evaluated using a relativistic all-order method in which all single, double and partial triple excitations of Dirac-Fock wave functions are included to all orders of perturbation theory. Matrix elements are critically evaluated for their accuracy and recommended values of the matrix elements are given together with uncertainty estimates. Line strengths, transition rates and lifetimes of the metastable 5d(3/2) and 5d(5/2) states are calculated. Recommended values are given for static polarizabilities of the 6s, 5d and 6p states and tensor polarizabilities of the 5d and 6p(3/2) states. Uncertainties of the polarizability values are estimated in all cases. The blackbody radiation shift of the 6s(1/2)-5d(5/2) transition frequency of the Lu2+ ion is calculated with the aid of the recommended scalar polarizabilities of the 6s(1/2) and 5d(5/2) states. Finally, A and B hyperfine constants are determined for states of 175Lu2+ with n <= 9. This work provides recommended values of transition matrix elements, polarizabilities and hyperfine constants of Lu2+, critically evaluated for accuracy, for benchmark tests of high-precision theoretical methodology and planning of future experiments.

description: Existing methods can perform likelihood-based clustering on a multivariate data matrix of ordinal data, using finite mixtures to cluster the rows (observations) of the matrix. These models can incorporate the main effects of individual rows and columns, as well as cluster effects, to model the matrix of responses. However, many real-world applications also include available covariates, which provide insights into the main characteristics of the clusters and determine clustering structures based on both the individuals’ similar patterns of responses and the effects of the covariates on the individuals' responses. In our research we have extended the mixture-based models to include covariates and test what effect this has on the resulting clustering structures. We focus on clustering the rows of the data matrix, using the proportional odds cumulative logit model for ordinal data. We fit the models using the Expectation-Maximization algorithm and assess performance using a simulation study. We also illustrate an application of the models to the well-known arthritis clinical trial data set.
