description: The thermoelectric power factor of the narrow-gap semiconductor FeSb2 is greatly enhanced in comparison to the isostructural homologues FeAs2 and RuSb2. Comparative studies of magnetic and thermodynamic properties provide evidence that the narrow and correlated bands as well as the associated enhanced thermoelectricity are only specific to FeSb2. Our results point to the potential of FeSb2 for practical thermoelectric application at cryogenic temperatures and stimulate the search for new correlated semiconductors along the same lines.

\The right stamp of migrant\" : assisted migration from Britain to Tasmania in the 1920's and 1930's"
Creators: name: Furneaux-Young, Y
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: During the 1920's and 1930's in Tasmania as in the other Australian states the \Right Stamp of Migrant\" was unquestionably British. The idea of imperial migration had a strong appeal to many in the post Great War period. Sir Joseph Cook High Commissioner for Australia stated that 'The Empirewas greatly under-populated and a scientific readjustment of the population of the Empire opened up vistas of happiness and prosperity for millions of still unborn men as well as for-those now struggling against adversity and unemployment in Great Britain.\" Others saw it differently and suggested that Britain was using migration to solve the problems that the post Great War depression had created. The following extract from the editorial of a Tasmanian Labor Party newspaper typified this view. \"Australian Labor. . . does not want to see misery in any part of the globe if there is a way to prevent it. But Australian Labor does not want merely to transfer the unemployed problem of England out here and that is what the migration schemes of Nationalism mean.\" The Assisted Migration Scheme which was designed to attract people to come from Britain and settle in Australia by subsidising the cost of their passage was embodied in the Empire Settlement Act of 1922. There was an initial influx of migrants in 1921 and 1922 when British ex-servicemen received free passages. Migration continued steadily throughout the 1920's and then faded to a trickle in the 1930's. There were two types of migrants - nominated and selected. In Tasmania the majority who came were \"nominated\"; that is somebody in Tasmania agreed to take responsibility for the new-corner by meeting them and having accommodation and employment pre-arranged. \"Selected\" migrants were chosen in Britain by representatives of the Australian Government on the basis of requisitions by the various states. Schemes such as the \"Farm Boy Learners\" and the \"Girl Domestics\" were designed to cater for perceived demand in those specific areas of employment. This essay emphasises the early 1920's and will involve an examination of the patterns of experience of migrants rather than the development of policy. It is a story of who came why they came and what happened after they came. Underpinning this simplicity is a complex interplay involving political social and economic factors some of which are difficult to define or measure and the complete spectrum of human characteristics. We see despair but also determination small mindedness but also magnanimity tragedy but also occasional triumph. This is a story of struggle but it contains all that is quintessentially human."

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author. To advance the knowledge needed for the management of skate and ray species, the Dutch Elasmobranch Society has started a cooperative research project involving fishing operators in the Dutch demersal fleet. The project aims to bridge the knowledge gaps on ray demographics, catch and bycatch, as species specific landings data for rays is lacking for most areas, as well as developing a set of measures based on spatial/ temporal information, gear selectivity and best practice for on board handling to optimize discard survival. Cooperation between scientist and fishermen is a key part of the project as this will be essential for successful implementation of the proposed measures.

description: We model the binary black hole system OJ287 as a spinning primary and a non-spinning secondary. It is assumed that the primary has an accretion disk which is impacted by the secondary at specific times. These times are identified as major outbursts in the light curve of OJ287. This identification allows an exact solution of the orbit, with very tight error limits. Nine outbursts from both the historical photographic records as well as from recent photometric measurements have been used as fixed points of the solution: 1913, 1947, 1957, 1973, 1983, 1984, 1995, 2005 and 2007 outbursts. This allows the determination of eight parameters of the orbit. Most interesting of these are the primary mass of $1.84\cdot 10^{10} M_\odot$, the secondary mass $1.46\cdot 10^{8} M_\odot$, major axis precession rate $39^\circ.1$ per period, and the eccentricity of the orbit 0.70. The dimensionless spin parameter is $0.28\:\pm\:0.01$ (1 sigma). The last parameter will be more tightly constrained in 2015 when the next outburst is due. The outburst should begin on 15 December 2015 if the spin value is in the middle of this range, on 3 January 2016 if the spin is 0.25, and on 26 November 2015 if the spin is 0.31. We have also tested the possibility that the quadrupole term in the Post Newtonian equations of motion does not exactly follow Einstein's theory: a parameter $q$ is introduced as one of the 8 parameters. Its value is within 30% (1 sigma) of the Einstein's value $q = 1$. This supports the $no-hair theorem$ of black holes within the achievable precision. We have also measured the loss of orbital energy due to gravitational waves. The loss rate is found to agree with Einstein's value with the accuracy of 2% (1 sigma).

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author. Over the last decades, views on fisheries have oscillated between mistrust and confidence in management progress. The predominating policy remedy to world fish crisis, promoted by the Johannesburg declaration, aims at Maximum Sustainable Yield (MSY) by adjusting gear selectivity and fishing effort. Here we show a strong case study on how the strive for higher yields from the Eastern Baltic cod stock by increasing selectivity has become exceedingly detrimental for its productivity. As fish number in non-‐fishable sizes successively increase, growth potential is severely reduced, whereas fishing mortality increases on fishable sizes. Our findings suggest that policies focusing on maximum yield and targeting greater sizes are risky and should instead be redirected towards more risk-‐‑averting combinations of selectivity and effort, giving less yield but higher catch-‐‑per-‐‑unit-‐‑effort. Disregard of dynamic interactions will have dire consequences for the cod stock functioning, profitability of the fishing industry and overall ecosystem structure and function.

Suicide prevention through social work intervention : a study examining the applicability of crisis intervention theory using an ethnographic approach
Creators: name: Craig, Diane J
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Suicide is a concept that is socially constructed in that the intention of the deceased is inferred after the death has occurred. The implication underlying the use of the term is that such deaths are somehow problematic for society. Society therefore defines a role for professionals in the prevention of suicide. Psychologists, psychiatrists, general practitioners and nurses have written extensively on the subject and their role in the prevention of suicide is well articulated. There is a dearth of social work literature on the subject. Few studies that have researched the help-seeking behaviour of suicidal people have included visits to social workers in them and little has been written about the extent to which social workers encounter suicidal behaviour in clients or about the action they take. This is an exploratory study which seeks to establish the extent to which social workers encounter suicidal behaviour in clients, how they assess level of risk and what kind of action they take to prevent suicide. The study aims to test out predictions about social workers' responses based on crisis intervention theory. A random sample of thirty qualified social workers who are employed in the Launceston area were interviewed. Social workers were found to lack consensus about how highly suicidal behaviour ought to be treated and differed in the action that they took to prevent it. Social workers face a range of dilemmas about the extent to which they believe they ought to intervene to prevent a death by suicide. Just over half the sample (16 respondents) took non-directive action in that they offered choices, explored options or made suggestions and left the client to choose. The remaining 14 social workers argued that suicidal thinking is a process of constriction and this group intervened in a directive way. They acted to make the client safe and applied pressure to clients for consent for action to be taken. Dilemmas about action were particularly pronounced when the scenario involved a young adult or adolescent but action was more likely to be directive than non-directive. The beliefs that social workers held about suicide, depression, mental illness and professional knowledge were found to determine, to a great extent, their response to clients deemed at high risk of suicide. As a result of the findings of the study, explanations are generated for the split in opinions across the sample. A number of recommendations are made about the education of social workers and their needs in working with highly suicidal clients. Gaps that have been identified within the service delivery network in Launceston are discussed.

Towards a determination of the chiral critical surface of QCD
Creators: name: Philipsen, Owe
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The chiral critical surface is a surface of second order phase transitions bounding the region of first order chiral phase transitions for small quark masses in the {m_{u,d}, m_s,μ} parameter space. The potential critical endpoint of the QCD (T,μ)-phase diagram is widely expected to be part of this surface. Since for μ=0 with physical quark masses QCD is known to exhibit an analytic crossover, this expectation requires the region of chiral transitions to expand with μfor a chiral critical endpoint to exist. Instead, on coarse N_t=4 lattices, we find the area of chiral transitions to shrink with μ, which excludes a chiral critical point for QCD at moderate chemical potentials μ_B < 500 MeV. First results on finer N_t=6 lattices indicate a curvature of the critical surface consistent with zero and unchanged conclusions. We also comment on the interplay of phase diagrams between the N_f=2 and N_f=2+1 theories and its consequences for physical QCD.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author. Cephalopods are a high profile fishery resource. The capture of cuttlefish in Galicia is one of the most traditional fisheries, with major socioeconomic importance, and basically made artisanal fleet. Thus, within the MRFI of Ría de Cedeira, the sepia is the most important revenue and catches for this fleet. Since it is a reserve of fishing interest, is of great importance to know if there is the expected positive effect of protection on the evolution of catches and habitat use of this species and can thus develop a sustainable model. This study aims at characterizing the cuttlefish fishery within the MRFI, and proposes sustainable management, on the basis of CPUE, fishing areas, spatial behavior of fishing vessels, etc. To do this, we conducted a monitoring of fishing days of the artisanal fleet dedicated to the cuttlefish fishery that operates in the MRFI from October 2008 to May 2011. The results show an increase in catches in recent years within the MRFI. The monthly evolution of catches shows a time of increased catchability from mid-winter to late spring. There was a change in the behavior of the vessels after the implementation of the reservation, eliminating fishing pressure on the area of special protection.
Construction, viewing and perception of anamorphograms
Creators: name: Gregory, RL-A
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: In this thesis we mathematically describe various means of constructing pictures which are camouflaged, and which can only be recognized when viewed in an uncon-ventional, but prescribed manner. Such hidden, or distorted, pictures are referred to as anamorphoses or anamorphograms. We begin by considering some physiology of the eye and examine some psycho-physical research in Vision and Perception, particularly related to stereo psis. Some confusion in this area is identified and discussed. The reader is guided through simple, but increasingly complex, experiments. These facilitate the viewing of, and the understanding of how we 'see' three-dimensional images in, Single-Image Stereograms (commercially referred to as 'Magic Eye' pictures). Construction of examples of these is one of our main foci. Various viewing techniques are described, and we identify some parallels between the psycho-physical analysis of stereopsis, and the likely results obtained by the reader in viewing the simple dot stereograms presented in our experiments. We construct anamorphograms by applying a perspective drawing rule and some basic results of Optics. To be recognizable, our initial examples must be viewed monocularly from a prescribed viewpoint; or as a reflection in a given mirror; or wrapped around a given curved surface. Some of these examples are duplicated for binocular viewing in the form of anaglyphs, which allow the viewer to perceive a three-dimensional image. Further anamorphograms, for binocular viewing, in the form of Single-Image Stereograms, are constructed. Some related geometry results are presented, culmi-nating in the non-conventional representation of Single-Image Stereograms in terms of some results of Projective Geometry. We introduce the notion of a geometrical stereoscope which leads to the definition of a special central collineation and a con-sideration of a theorem related to fixed conics. Application of this result leads to the construction of a new Single-Image Stereogram of a sphere. This stereogram has special properties. We note the implications of the results of our introductory experimental section, for its viewing. Finally, we present anamorphograms which are compositions of the preceding cases and we include transcripts, together with explanations, of the computer pro-grams for creating all of our anamorphograms. These are written in Mathematica.

By numerically simulating the response of the IceTop tanks, which are thick Cherenkov detectors with multiple thresholds deployed at high altitude with no geomagnetic cut-off, we determined the particle energy spectrum in the energy range 0.6 to 7.6 GeV. This is the first such spectral measurement using a single instrument with a well defined viewing direction. We compare the IceTop spectrum and its time evolution with previously published results and outline plans for improved resolution of future solar particle spectra.

description: In this work, we examine the finite temperature properties of the CPT-even and Lorentz-invariance-violating (LIV) electrodynamics of the standard model extension, represented by the term $W_{ανρϕ}F^{αν}F^{ρϕ}$. We begin analyzing the hamiltonian structure following the Dirac's procedure for constrained systems and construct a well-defined and gauge invariant partition function in the functional integral formalism. Next, we specialize for the non-birefringent coefficients of the tensor $W_{ανρϕ}$. In the sequel, the partition function is explicitly carried out for the parity-even sector of the tensor $W_{ανρϕ}$. The modified partition function is a power of the Maxwell's partition function. It is observed that the LIV coefficients induce an anisotropy in the black body angular energy density distribution. The Planck's radiation law, however, retains its frequency dependence and the Stefan-Boltzmann law keeps the usual form, except for a change in the Stefan-Boltzmann constant by a factor containing the LIV contributions.

Study of program sequencing in computer- assisted instruction
Creators: name: Struthers, Telford
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This study was undertaken to investigate how program sequencing would effect a sixth-grade group of Ss. A linear program of 111 frames that taught base five arithmetic was chosen for the study. The program presented in its original order was called the logically sequenced program. The program whose frame sequence was determined by a table of random numbers was called the scrambled sequenced program. On the basis of IQ scores, two groups of students were formed. Equal numbers from each of these two groups were then assigned at random to one of the two programs of instruction. The two programs of instruction were presented to the Ss by means of computer terminals. A posttest was then administered to test the effect of program sequencing on learning facts and skills that were taken directly from the program. Also tested was the effect of program sequencing on the student's ability to use the principles developed in the program to solve problems that are an extension of these principles. There was found to be a significant increase in the program error rate and program completion time for the scrambled sequenced program when compared to the logically sequenced program, implying that the program chosen for the study contained dependency among the frames. The results of the posttest indicated that there was no significant difference between the mean scores of the two groups although in each case the logically sequenced group did achieve a higher mean score. It was also found that there was no significant interaction between sequence of instruction and ability level. Many previous studies in program sequencing have dealt with an older population in comparison to the population chosen for this study. The conclusions from these studies have generally been that sequence of instruction has been overemphasized as a variable for consideration in program construction. While the results of this study indicate that sequence of instruction may be more important for a younger population, some doubt is raised as to the importance of attempting to obtain a carefully sequenced, small error rate program.

description: The bovine respiratory disease complex (BRDC) is the most common disease problem in feedlot cattle, accounting for 65-75% of feedlot morbidity and mortality. The annual cost of BRDC to the cattle industry has been estimated at $167.2 million to $232.4 million (Perino, 1992). BRDC is caused by a complex interaction of stresses and microorganisms on the host animal. In most outbreaks, it is not possible to diagnose with certainty which infectious agents are present by clinical examination alone. Diagnosis of infectious causes of BRDC has primarily been done on tissue samples obtained from postmortem examinations. This method has resulted in a low diagnosis rate for viral infections. In addition, antibiograms done on bacterial isolates from the lungs of treated dead cattle or chronically ill cattle are of questionable value since these samples were obtained from "treatment failures". We have adopted a new program combining nasal swabs and tracheal swabs to improve viral diagnosis rates and provide more meaningful sensitivity data on bacterial isolates. The goal of this program is to provide more timely and accurate information so informed decisions can be made on treatment, vaccination, and herd health programs when BRDC outbreaks occur.

description: The quantization of the simple one-dimensional Hamiltonian H=xp is of interest for its mathematical properties rather than for its physical relevance. In fact, the Berry-Keating conjecture speculates that a proper quantization of H=xp could yield a relation with the Riemann hypothesis. Motivated by this, we study the so-called Wigner quantization of H=xp, which relates the problem to representations of the Lie superalgebra osp(1|2). In order to know how the relevant operators act in representation spaces of osp(1|2), we study all unitary, irreducible star representations of this Lie superalgebra. Such a classification has already been made by J.W.B. Hughes, but we reexamine this classification using elementary arguments.

A study of matrilineal kin relations in contemporary Minangkabau society of West Sumatra
Creators: name: Afrizal,
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: For a period, it was argued by analysts that as society develops wider kin relations are weakened, while ties within a nuclear family are strengthened. In the case of matrilineal kinship systems, it was argued that economic change, which involves movement towards a capitalist economy, weakens the matrilineal descent group and transforms it. Recently, analysts in the field of family and kinship argue that despite economic and demographic changes, kinship continues to be important in providing a support network. Kin remain a source of economic and social support when people face economic and social difficulty. This thesis examines kin relations in contemporary Minangkabau matrilineal society of West Sumatra, Indonesia. It studies kinship as providing networks of support. The main question addressed in this thesis is: Are kin ties weakening in contemporary Minangkabau society? The extent to which members of matrilineal kin groups who live in both rural and urban areas exchange financial, labour and social support with each other is examined. Kin relationships such as that between a mother's brother and his sister's children are examined, and views of social responsibilities between a range of kin are also analysed. The research findings show that although Minangkabau have undergone significant economic and demographic changes, ties within matrilineal kin groups are still strong. The members of matrilineal kin groups continue to exchange financial and labour support and mother's brothers are still involved in organising marriages and in the socialisation of their sisters' children. However, the thesis also raises the problems of limitations to the provision of care and support, and relates kin-based support to the lack of alternatives in this social setting. The findings also reveal that it is very important to take account of both male and female roles within a kin group when examining kin relations rather than to over emphasise the role of men.

description: The emotional turn in the humanities takes place to a great extent without taking Max Scheler into consideration, even if he is the real theorist of emotions as the basis of the social-cultural lifeworld. The background for this constellation is that Scheler has lost his status as a classical author of sociology already years ago – in favour of Alfred Schütz and his rational approach. Due to this starting point the paper deals with two issues: (1) It reconstructs the Emotional turn (without Scheler), its performance and its reasons; (2) it reconsiders Scheler’s theory of emotions for a foundation of the cultural und social world and its analysis of the modern world. The paper collects Scheler’s different relevant texts and assembles them to a virtual Scheler-book on the „Emotional turn“, which could have made the Emotional turn sustainable.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author. In the Bay of Biscay, cephalopod catches were in the past by-catches of demersal trawl fisheries that targeted hake, anglerfish, megrim or sole among others. However, in the last years cephalopods obtained in multispecies fisheries are becoming more important in terms of the share of the catch that they represent or the income for fishers. They have even become target species for some trips in certain seasons of the year. Due to this increase in catches and economic importance, there has been an increasing effort within ICES to compile all the information available on cephalopods in the North East Atlantic with the objective of providing management advice in the short term. One of these species is the common squid (Loligo vulgaris) in the Bay of Biscay (ICES divisions VIIIa,b,d). This work represents the first attempts for providing management advice for this stock. After compiling and reviewing the available data, two alternative methods in which to base the management advice are tested: the ICES approach for data-limited stocks and a biomass dynamic assessment model. Trends in abundance indices are compared to model outputs. Although the results are promising, the shortlived nature and the high fluctuations of the stock motivate further method developments.

description: For many years veterinarians have searched for an effective way to treat retained placentas and postpartum metritis. Many remedies have been used and many have gone by the wayside. In the 70's the prevailing approach was the volume uterine treatment (VUT) infusion of various formulations. It replaced the insertion of boluses in the uterus approach used prior to VUT. In the 1980's most practitioners finally settled on tetracycline in the uterus as the drug of choice after Olsen's work that was presented at the Oklahoma City AABP in 1983.

description: A filament disappearance event was observed on 22 May 2008 during our recent campaign JOP 178. The filament, situated in the southern hemisphere, showed sinistral chirality consistent with the hemispheric rule. The event was well observed by several observatories in particular by THEMIS. One day before the disappearance, H$α$ observations showed up and down flows in adjacent locations along the filament, which suggest plasma motions along twisted flux rope. THEMIS and GONG observations show shearing photospheric motions leading to magnetic flux canceling around barbs. STEREO A, B spacecraft with separation angle 52.4 degrees, showed quite different views of this untwisting flux rope in He II 304 Å images. Here, we reconstruct the 3D geometry of the filament during its eruption phase using STEREO EUV He II 304 Å images and find that the filament was highly inclined to the solar normal. The He II 304 Å movies show individual threads, which oscillate and rise to an altitude of about 120 Mm with apparent velocities of about 100 km s$^{-1}$, during the rapid evolution phase. Finally, as the flux rope expands into the corona, the filament disappears by becoming optically thin to undetectable levels. No CME was detected by STEREO, only a faint CME was recorded by LASCO at the beginning of the disappearance phase at 02:00 UT, which could be due to partial filament eruption. Further, STEREO Fe XII 195 Å images showed bright loops beneath the filament prior to the disappearance phase, suggesting magnetic reconnection below the flux rope.

description: The efficiency of a container terminal is usually evaluated by two main indicators: vessel docking time and truck turnaround time. These two indicators are significantly affected by the time of arrival and departure of trucks at the container terminal. In the truck scheduling problem, it is required to determine for each truck the time slot for picking up/delivering a container from/to the container terminal, while considering the goals and constraints of the terminal and trucking companies. Truck assignment systems are considered as a solution to control the arrival of trucks and improve the efficiency of the terminal. In addition, the impact of the introduction of information and communication technology on the problem of scheduling appointments with external truck transportation is examined.

Appalachian Adaptations

description: Just recently, I have read several articles that question the abilities of women that have chosen to specialize in bovine practice, especially small women. These articles have questioned the capabilities of small women handling cattle properly when approached by an uncooperative patient. Well, let me ease your minds. I know from personal experience that a small female can become a successful bovine expert. Due to the poor economic status of eastern Kentucky, the Appalachian coal fields, the application of treating a family pet as well as a food producing animal is rewarding, and trying. There are few cow/calf type operations on reclaimed strip jobs in this area. Usually, there are 10-50 heads of cattle turned loose on these reclaimed strip jobs. By educating the owners on nutrition and handling facilities, I learned that the care of these animals does improve.

description: We study the ground state and classify its phase diagram for a mixture of two spin-1 condensates in the absence of external magnetic (B-) field according to atomic parameters for intra- and inter-species spin exchange coupling and singlet pairing interaction. Ignoring the inter-species singlet pairing interaction, the ground state phases are found analytically. Numerical approach of simulated annealing is adopted when the singlet pairing interaction is present. Our results on the phase diagram and the boundaries between phases allow for easy identifications of quantum phase transitions, that can be induced through the tuning of optical traps and atom numbers. They provide the first insight and guidance for several ongoing experiments on mixtures of spinor condensates.

Urine pH to Monitor Anionic Salt Programs
Creators: name: Jardon, Phillip W.
Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 1994

description: Anionic salts help prevent milk fever by causing a mild compensated metabolic acidosis. The acidosis also leads to acid urine. Dr. Jesse Goff of the National Animal Disease Laboratory in Ames, Iowa suggests closeup dry cow urinary pH values above 8 indicates cows that are at greater risk of milk fever. Values below 7.3 indicate decreased risk of milk fever. These values have not been well worked out and over interpretation should be avoided. However, if anionic salts are fed and the method of action is through a metabolic acidosis, it is reasonable to expect some level of aciduria.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author. Dynamic factor analysis was used to explore monthly landings per unit effort (LPUE) series of Octopus vulgaris and environmental variables recorded in the southwest Iberian Peninsula, south Portugal. Despite the large fluctuations in the octopus abundance series, results showed a strong aggregation pattern for the last 3 months of the year, possibly related to the input of new recruits to the fishery. The calculated common trend for the 12 months time-series presented significant correlations with autumn rainfall of the previous year (lag − 1), particularly for the October, November, and December series. Other important correlations were found for the Western Mediterranean Oscillation index (lag − 1), Ekman transport, summer river run-off (lag − 1), horizontal and vertical component of windstress, among others. The main trend describes a moderate steady increase in LPUE during the last 10 years, suggesting that octopus abundance has increased from 1990 to 2010. The strong correlations of the monthly octopus LPUE series, together with the annual life cycle, suggest that after environmentally controlled recruitment, population dynamics is largely fishery driven, resulting in strong seasonality in the landings.
