description: The average economic agent is often used to model the dynamics of simple markets, based on the assumption that the dynamics of many agents can be averaged over in time and space. A popular idea that is based on this seemingly intuitive notion is to dampen electric power fluctuations from fluctuating sources (as e.g. wind or solar) via a market mechanism, namely by variable power prices that adapt demand to supply. The standard model of an average economic agent predicts that fluctuations are reduced by such an adaptive pricing mechanism. However, the underlying assumption that the actions of all agents average out on the time axis is not always true in a market of many agents. We numerically study an econophysics agent model of an adaptive power market that does not assume averaging a priori. We find that when agents are exposed to source noise via correlated price fluctuations (as adaptive pricing schemes suggest), the market may amplify those fluctuations. In particular, small price changes may translate to large load fluctuations through catastrophic consumer synchronization. As a result, an adaptive power market may cause the opposite effect than intended: Power fluctuations are not dampened but amplified instead.

description: We use Monte Carlo and genetic algorithms to train neural-network feedback-control protocols for simulated fluctuating nanosystems. These protocols convert the information obtained by the feedback process into heat or work, allowing the extraction of work from a colloidal particle pulled by an optical trap and the absorption of entropy by an Ising model undergoing magnetization reversal. The learning framework requires no prior knowledge of the system, depends only upon measurements that are accessible experimentally, and scales to systems of considerable complexity. It could be used in the laboratory to learn protocols for fluctuating nanosystems that convert measurement information into stored work or heat.
The binary-outcome detection loophole

subject: Dewey Decimal Classification::500 | Naturwissenschaften::530 | Physik

description: The detection loophole problem arises when quantum devices fail to provide an output for some runs. If treating these devices in a device-independent manner, failure to include the unsuccessful runs in the output statistics can lead to an adversary falsifying security i.e. Bell inequality violation. If the devices fail with too high frequency, known as the detection threshold, then no security is possible, as the full statistics cannot violate a Bell inequality. In this work we provide an intuitive local hidden-variable strategy that the devices may use to falsify any two-party, binary-outcome no-signalling distribution up to a threshold of 2(mA + mB − 8)/(mAmB − 16), where mA, mB refer to the number of available inputs choices to the two parties. This value is the largest analytically predicted lower bound for no-signalling distributions. We strongly conjecture it gives the true detection threshold for mA = mB, and for computationally tractable scenarios we provide the Bell inequality which verifies this. We also prove that a non-trivial detection threshold remains, even when allowing one party an arbitrary number of input choices.

description: We classify origin limits of maximally helicity violating multi-gluon scattering amplitudes in planar $\mathcal{N}=4$ super-Yang-Mills theory, where a large number of cross ratios approach zero, with the help of cluster algebras. By analyzing existing perturbative data, and bootstrapping new data, we provide evidence that the amplitudes become the exponential of a quadratic polynomial in the large logarithms. With additional input from the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz at strong coupling, we conjecture exact expressions for amplitudes with up to 8 gluons in all origin limits. Our expressions are governed by the tilted cusp anomalous dimension evaluated at various values of the tilt angle.

description: We developed a novel two-photon polymerization (2PP) configuration for fabrication of high-aspect three-dimensional (3D) structures, with an overall height larger than working distance of the microscope objective used for laser beam focusing into a photosensitive material. This method is based on a modified optical 2PP setup, where a microscope objective (100× high N.A.), immersion oil and cover glass can be moved together into the photosensitive material, resulting in an effective higher and wider objective working range (WOW-2PP). The proposed technique enables the fabrication of high-aspect structures with sub-micrometer process resolution. 3D structures with a height of 7mmare demonstrated, which could hardly be built with the conventional 2PP set-up due to refractive index mismatch and laser beam disturbances.

description: Due to their ability to serve as fluorophores and drug delivery vehicles, quantum dots are a powerful tool for theranostics-based clinical applications. In this study, microneedle devices for transdermal drug delivery were fabricated by means of two-photon polymerization of an acrylate-based polymer. We examined proliferation of cells on this polymer using neonatal human epidermal keratinocytes and human dermal fibroblasts. The microneedle device was used to inject quantum dots into porcine skin; imaging of the quantum dots was performed using multiphoton microscopy. © 2011 The Royal Society of Chemistry.

An SL_2-tiling is a bi-infinite matrix of positive integers such that each adjacent 2 x 2-submatrix has determinant 1. We construct a large class of new SL_2-tilings which contains the previously known ones. More precisely, we show that there is a bijection between our class of SL_2-tilings and certain combinatorial objects, namely triangulations of the strip.

Advocates’ immunity – a great divide in the privileges accorded to legal professions around the world
Creators: name: Xu, Gregory Weicheng
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Advocates’ immunity accords protection from civil liability, most notably claims in negligence, to advocates when undertaking tasks which are “intimately connected” with the conduct of a client’s case in court. The doctrine had a longstanding history in English law and was adopted in many common law jurisdictions such as New Zealand and Australia. Most recently, however, the House of Lords abolished the advocates’ immunity doctrine in England and Wales. The House of Lords held that the many factors upon which the immunity had been based were no longer sufficient to warrant its retention. A short time later, the High Court of Australia reached an entirely different view. The High Court declined to abolish advocates’ immunity and has, arguably, even extended its scope. When the issue arose before the Supreme Court of New Zealand, that court examined these recent developments in English and Australian law in detail and concluded that advocates’ immunity should be abolished. This thesis examines these differing international developments on advocates’ immunity. Given similarities in the development of the advocates’ immunity doctrine in Australia, New Zealand and England, an emphasis will be placed on these jurisdictions. An evaluation of the reasons enunciated by the High Court of Australia in support of retaining advocates’ immunity will reveal that “finality” of litigation will not be threatened by the abolition of the immunity. It will also be argued that the administration of justice would not be prejudiced by the abolition of advocates’ immunity. In order to provide a “solution” to the present dilemma existing within the Australian legal system, the thesis will also consider four possible law reform possibilities. These are: complete abolition of the advocates’ immunity doctrine; reduction of the scope of the advocates’ immunity doctrine; preservation of the status quo; or broadening of the advocates’ immunity doctrine. The thesis will also consider the soundness of the secondary arguments which were adopted by the High Court of Australia in support of the retention of the advocates’ immunity doctrine. It will be argued that none of the reasons accepted by the High Court to support the immunity do in fact provide a coherent basis for the immunity. Accordingly, the thesis will recommend the abolition of advocates’ immunity in Australia. At the very least, the advocates’ immunity doctrine should be revitalised and only be triggered under a narrower scope of conduct. The thesis will conclude that any substantive reform to advocates’ immunity should be taken by legislatures rather than the courts as this would lead to superior results. This thesis will also briefly discuss prospective developments and consider opportunities for further research into this area of the law.

description: The city of Athens is characterised by urbanisation and migratory waves. In relation to the changing climate with an overall increasing temperature and a significantly higher amount of extreme events, the city is especially vulnerable to the urban heat island effect. Spacing and orientation of buildings as well as outdoor spaces influence the microclimate of cities in a strong way (KLEEREKOPER et al. 2012, 30). The city of Athens is challenged by high temperatures within central city districts, because the high rate of dense construction is dominating and leaves little space for free and green areas. The urban heat island effect represents a serious danger for inhabitant’s health and well-being (KLEEREKOPER et al 2012, 31). Thus, the need for new solid solutions to develop the city in a more resilient and climate-proof was arises. A major challenge is to create policies and measures that meet the demand for more green ‘lungs’ in the city. Within this research project, strategic solution to tackle urban heat were developed on a small scale. Therefore, a central part of Athens was analysed to create a concept with detailed measures to mitigate and adapt to urban heat. With the help of further research and observations, the concept of ‘Inclusive Green’ was developed based on the conditions and problems in the study area. Different measures are proposed in order to deal with the grave situation of urban heat with which architects, planners, environmentalists, and civilians are confronted.

description: A survey was conducted to assess goat production system and production constraints under two farming systems (Agro-pastoral (AP) and mixed crop livestock (MCL)) in the rural areas of Dire Dawa Administration, Ethiopia. Semi structured questionnaire was used to collect information from 150 goat owning households. Household goat holding was higher in AP (32.00±2.3) as compared to MCL farming system (14.13±1.08). Lower age at first kidding (16.08±0.24 months) and shorter kidding interval (7.64±0.11 months) was reported in MCL as compared to AP farming system (17.00±0.21 and 8.23±0.14 months, respectively). Age at marketing in AP (13.83±0.89 months) was lower than MCL farming system (17.55±0.75 months). In both farming systems, cash income from sales of live goat was the primary objective of goat production. Grazing on natural pasture in wet season and crop stubble after crop harvest were the main sources of feed. About 79.3% of the total respondents have got their own buck. Higher proportion of respondents in AP farming (84%) practice breeding buck selection as compared to MCL farming system (53.3%). In both farming systems, size, parent performance and body conformation were the three main criteria to select breeding buck. Goats are kept overnight in an open kraal in AP farming (72%) and with human in the same main living house in MCL farming system (48%). Feed scarcity was ranked as the first important constraint of goat rearing, while disease and predator attack in MCL, and scarcity of water and market access in AP farming system ranked as second and third important constraints, respectively. Thus, enhancement of goat production in the study area requires improvement in quality and quantity of the available feed, improved breeding practices, housing practices, utilization of health services, and access to water and market.

description: Semi-empirical quantum chemical approaches are known to compromise accuracy for feasibility of calculations on huge molecules. However, the need for ultrafast calculations in interactive quantum mechanical studies, high-throughput virtual screening, and for data-driven machine learning has shifted the emphasis towards calculation runtimes recently. This comes with new constraints for the software implementation as many fast calculations would suffer from a large overhead of manual setup and other procedures that are comparatively fast when studying a single molecular structure, but which become prohibitively slow for high-throughput demands. In this work, we discuss the effect of various well-established semi-empirical approximations on calculation speed and relate this to data transfer rates from the raw-data source computer to the results visualization front end. For the former, we consider desktop computers, local high performance computing, as well as remote cloud services in order to elucidate the effect on interactive calculations, for web and cloud interfaces in local applications, and in world-wide interactive virtual sessions. The models discussed in this work have been implemented into our open-source software SCINE Sparrow.

description: We have identified 469 MgII doublet systems having W_r >= 0.02 Å in 252 Keck/HIRES and UVES/VLT quasar spectra over the redshift range 0.1 < z < 2.6. Using the largest sample yet of 188 weak MgII systems (0.02 Å <= W_r < 0.3 Å), we calculate their absorber redshift path density, dN/dz. We find clear evidence of evolution, with dN/dz peaking at z ~ 1.2, and that the product of the absorber number density and cross section decreases linearly with increasing redshift; weak MgII absorbers seem to vanish above z ~ 2.7. If the absorbers are ionized by the UV background, we estimate number densities of 10^6 - 10^9 per Mpc^3 for spherical geometries and 10^2 - 10^5 per Mpc^3 for more sheetlike geometries. We also find that dN/dz toward intrinsically faint versus bright quasars differs significantly for weak and strong (W_r >= 1.0 Å) absorbers. For weak absorption, dN/dz toward bright quasars is ~ 25% higher than toward faint quasars (10 sigma at low redshift, 0.4 <= z <= 1.4, and 4 sigma at high redshift, 1.4 < z <= 2.34). For strong absorption the trend reverses, with dN/dz toward faint quasars being ~ 20% higher than toward bright quasars (also 10 sigma at low redshift and 4 sigma at high redshift). We explore scenarios in which beam size is proportional to quasar luminosity and varies with absorber and quasar redshifts. These do not explain dN/dz's dependence on quasar luminosity.

description: Laser beam shaping offers remarkable possibilities to control and optimise process stability and tailor material properties and structure in laser-based welding and additive manufacturing. However, little is known about the influence of laser beam shaping on the complex melt-pool behaviour, solidified melt-track bead profile and microstructural grain morphology in laser material processing. A simulation-based approach is utilised in the present work to study the effects of laser beam intensity profile and angle of incidence on the melt-pool behaviour in conduction-mode laser melting of stainless steel 316L plates. The present high-fidelity physics-based computational model accounts for crucial physical phenomena in laser material processing such as complex laser-matter interaction, solidification and melting, heat and fluid flow dynamics, and free-surface oscillations. Experiments were carried out using different laser beam shapes and the validity of the numerical predictions is demonstrated. The results indicate that for identical processing parameters, reshaping the laser beam leads to notable changes in the thermal and fluid flow fields in the melt pool, affecting the melt-track bead profile and solidification microstructure. The columnar-to-equiaxed transition is discussed for different laser-intensity profiles.

description: We report on the theoretical derivation of macroscopic thermal properties (specific heat, thermal conductivity) of an electrically insulating rod connected to two reservoirs, from the linear superposition of its mechanical mode Brownian motions. The calculation is performed for a weak thermal gradient, in the classical limit (high temperature). The development is kept basic as far as geometry and experimental conditions are concerned, enabling an almost fully analytic treatment. In the modeling, each of the modes is subject to a specific Langevin force, which enables to produce the required temperature profile along the rod. The theory is predictive: the temperature gradient (and therefore energy transport) is linked to motion amplitude cross-correlations between nearby mechanical modes. This arises because energy transport is actually mediated by mixing between the modal waves, and not by the modes themselves. This result can be tested on experiments, and shall extend the concepts underlying equipartition and fluctuation-dissipation theorems. The theory links intimately the macroscopic size of the clamping region where the mixing occurs to the microscopic lengthscale of the problem at hand: the phonon mean-free-path. This clamping region, which is key, has received recently a renewed attention in the field of nanomechanics with topical works on "phonon shields" and "soft clamping". We believe that our work should impact the domain of thermal transport in nanostructures, with future developments of the theory toward the quantum regime.

description: A cross-sectional study was conducted from November 2011 to May, 2012 to estimate the prevalence of major bacteria associated with subclinical mastitis in lactating animals. Lactating animals were screened for subclinical mastitis using California mastitis test (CMT). The CMT positive milk samples were cultured on media to isolate major bacterial pathogens. An overall prevalence of 31.6, 26.3, 21.1, 15.8 and 5.3% were recorded for Staphylococcus aureus, coagulase-negative Staphylococcus (CNS), Acinetobacter species, Micrococcus species and coliforms, respectively. The result revealed a subclinical mastitis of 48, 30.8 and 25% in cows, goats and ewes, respectively. The dominant bacteria isolated in cow milk was S. aureus (33.3%) followed by CNS species (25%), Micrococcus species (16.7%), Acinetobacter species (16.7%) and coliforms (8.3%). Similar frequency of S. aureus, CNS and Acinetobacter species were obtained for doe (25%) and ewe (33.3%). The prevalence of Micrococcus species in doe was 25%, while it was not present in ewes. Among the isolated bacteria, S. aureus and coliform species are important in clinical as well as subclinical mastitis, and they are human pathogens that cause septicemia and gastrointestinal illness. Therefore, attention should be given to the management of the dairy animals in the farm in order to reduce potential loses of productivity as well as risk of human illness due to infection and intoxication.

description: Kurzfassung: Ausgangspunkt des Beitrages ist die Annahme, dass nachhaltige Raumentwicklung in substanzieller Hinsicht an ein relationales Raumverständnis und prozedural an die Auseinandersetzung mit Konflikten gebunden ist. Diese Anforderungen werden auf einen konkreten Gegenstand der räumlichen Planung bezogen: landschafts-bezogene Identitäten. Deren Konzeptualisierung erfolgt als individuelle Deutungen landschaftlicher Spezifik, die sich der Materialität ebenso wie gesellschaftlicher Deutungsmuster bedienen. Für die empirische Erfassung werden landschaftsbezogene Identitäten als Zuspitzung der ‚angeeigneten physischen Landschaft‘ konkretisiert. Im Zentrum des Interesses stehen also solche Merkmale, die zur individuellen Konstruktion spezifischer Landschaft ‚zusammen-geschaut‘ werden und auf die sich Zugehörigkeits- bzw. Zusammengehörigkeitsvorstellungen sowie emotionale Zuwendungen beziehen. An diesen als Referenzpunkte bezeichneten Merkmalen kommen auch identitätsrelevante Konflikte zum Ausdruck, also gegensätzliche Deutungen landschaftlicher Spezifik. In einer ländlichen Fallstudien-region werden so verstandene landschaftsbezogene Identitäten mit qualitativ-rekonstruktiven Methoden sichtbar gemacht. Die Ergebnisse von 28 leitfadengestützten Interviews belegen ein vielfältiges Spektrum an Referenz-punkten, die zwar individuell unterschiedlich besetzt sind, aber dennoch wiederholt auftreten. Zudem zeigen sich gegensätzliche Deutungsmuster: Dieselben Merkmale gelten den einen als identitätsstiftend, den anderen nicht. Die Diskussion resümiert die theoretisch-konzeptionellen und methodologischen Überlegungen vor dem Hintergrund der empirischen Ergebnisse und leitet Implikationen für die räumliche Planung ab. Ein besonderer Fokus liegt dabei auf Handlungsempfehlungen zur Bearbeitung konfliktär verfasster Lesarten landschaftsbezogener Identität.

description: The sensitivity of light and matter-wave interferometers to rotations is based on the Sagnac effect and increases with the area enclosed by the interferometer. In the case of light, the latter can be enlarged by forming multiple fibre loops, whereas the equivalent for matter-wave interferometers remains an experimental challenge. We present a concept for a multi-loop atom interferometer with a scalable area formed by light pulses. Our method will offer sensitivities as high as 2×10−11 rad/s at 1 s in combination with the respective long-term stability as required for Earth rotation monitoring.

description: We analyse the $f(R)$ gravity in the so-called Jordan frame, as implemented to the isotropic Universe dynamics. The goal of the present study is to show that, according to recent data analyses of the supernovae Ia Pantheon sample, it is possible to account for an effective redshift dependence of the Hubble constant. This is achieved via the dynamics of a non-minimally coupled scalar field, as it emerges in the $f(R)$ gravity. We face the question both from an analytical and purely numerical point of view, following the same technical paradigm. We arrive to establish that the expected decay of the Hubble constant with the redshift $z$ is ensured by a form of the scalar field potential, which remains essentially constant for $z\lesssim0.3$, independently if this request is made a priori, as in the analytical approach, or obtained a posteriori, when the numerical procedure is addressed. Thus, we demonstrate that an $f(R)$ dark energy model is able to account for an apparent variation of the Hubble constant due to the rescaling of the Einstein constant by the $f(R)$ scalar mode.

description: The stability of nonvolatile thin liquid films and of sessile droplets is strongly affected by finite size effects. We analyze their stability within the framework of density functional theory using the sharp kink approximation, i.e., on the basis of an effective interface Hamiltonian. We show that finite size effects suppress spinodal dewetting of films because it is driven by a long-wavelength instability. Therefore nonvolatile films are stable if the substrate area is too small. Similarly, nonvolatile droplets connected to a wetting film become unstable if the substrate area is too large. This instability of a nonvolatile sessile droplet turns out to be equivalent to the instability of a volatile drop which can attain chemical equilibrium with its vapor.

description: The vertex model of epithelia describes the apical surface of a tissue as a tiling of polygonal cells, with a mechanical energy governed by deviations in cell shape from preferred, or target, area, $A_0$, and perimeter, $P_0$. The model exhibits a rigidity transition driven by geometric incompatibility as tuned by the target shape index, $p_0 = P_0 / \sqrt{A_0}$. For $p_0 > p_*(6) = \sqrt{8 \sqrt{3}} \approx 3.72$, with $p_*(6)$ the perimeter of a regular hexagon of unit area, a cell can simultaneously attain both the preferred area and preferred perimeter. As a result, the tissue is in a mechanically soft compatible state, with zero shear and Young's moduli. For $p_0 < p_*(6)$, it is geometrically impossible for any cell to realize the preferred area and perimeter simultaneously, and the tissue is in an incompatible rigid solid state. Using a mean-field approach, we present a complete analytical calculation of the linear elastic moduli of an ordered vertex model. We analyze a relaxation step that includes non-affine deformations, leading to a softer response than previously reported. The origin of the vanishing shear and Young's moduli in the compatible state is the presence of zero-energy deformations of cell shape. The bulk modulus exhibits a jump discontinuity at the transition and can be lower in the rigid state than in the fluid-like state. The Poisson's ratio can become negative which lowers the bulk and Young's moduli. Our work provides a unified treatment of linear elasticity for the vertex model and demonstrates that this linear response is protocol-dependent.

description: We initiate the construction of integrable $λ$-deformed WZW models based on non-semisimple groups. We focus on the four-dimensional case whose underlying symmetries are based on the non-semisimple group $E_2^c$. The corresponding gravitational backgrounds of Lorentzian signature are plane waves which can be obtained as Penrose limits of the $λ$-deformed $SU(2)$ background times a timelike coordinate for appropriate choices of the $λ$-matrix. We construct two such deformations which we demonstrate to be integrable. They both deform the Nappi-Witten plane wave and are inequivalent. Nevertheless, they have the same underlying symmetry algebra which is a Saletan-type contraction of that for the $λ$-deformed $SU(2)$ background with a timelike direction. We also construct a plane wave from the Penrose limit of the $λ$-deformation of the $\nicefrac{SU(2)}{U(1)}$ coset CFT times a timelike coordinate which represents the deformation of a logarithmic CFT constructed in the past. Finally, we briefly consider contractions based on the simplest Yang-baxter $σ$-models.

description: Quadruped robots have emerged as an evolving technology that currently leverages simulators to develop a robust controller capable of functioning in the real-world without the need for further training. However, since it is impossible to predict all possible real-world situations, our research explores the possibility of enabling them to continue learning even after their deployment. To this end, we designed two continual learning scenarios, sequentially training the robot on different environments while simultaneously evaluating its performance across all of them. Our approach sheds light on the extent of both forward and backward skill transfer, as well as the degree to which the robot might forget previously acquired skills. By addressing these factors, we hope to enhance the adaptability and performance of quadruped robots in real-world scenarios.

description: A cross sectional study was conducted from October 2012 to July 2013 to determine the prevalence of hydatidosis in cattle slaughtered at Halaba kulitto municipal abattoir. A total of 384 cattle organ were examined and the result revealed an overall hydatidosis prevalence of 24.21% (93/384). The distribution of hydatid cysts in different internal organ were 12.8% (49/384), 3.1% (12/384), 0%, 0.5% (2/384), 1.3% (5/384), 4.7% (18/384), 0.8% (3/384) and 1.0% (4/384), respectively in lungs, liver, kidney, heart, spleen, lung and liver, lung, liver and spleen and in lung and spleen. The lung was the most affected organ followed by the liver. Sex and age of the animal did not have statistically significant effect (P>0.05). A total of 70 cysts were examined for viability and fertility test. Accordingly, 82.86% (58/70) and 53% (37/70) cysts were fertile and viable, respectively. The findings of the present study disclosed that hydatidosis was prevalent in cattle of the study area and responsible for high level of condemnation of different organs. Hence, an integrated control approach involving strategic de-worming of the final hosts with strong surveillance system and good management practice of animals are essential for the reduction of the parasite prevalence.

description: We present a new and complete library of synthetic spectra for modeling the component of emission that is reflected from an illuminated accretion disk. The spectra were computed using an updated version of our code XILLVER that incorporates new routines and a richer atomic data base. We offer in the form of a table model an extensive grid of reflection models that cover a wide range of parameters. Each individual model is characterized by the photon index Γof the illuminating radiation, the ionization parameter ξat the surface of the disk (i.e., the ratio of the X-ray flux to the gas density), and the iron abundance A_{Fe} relative to the solar value. The ranges of the parameters covered are: 1.2 \leq Γ\leq 3.4, 1 \leq ξ\leq 10^4, and 0.5 \leq A_{Fe} \leq 10. These ranges capture the physical conditions typically inferred from observations of active galactic nuclei, and also stellar-mass black holes in the hard state. This library is intended for use when the thermal disk flux is faint compared to the incident power-law flux. The models are expected to provide an accurate description of the Fe K emission line, which is the crucial spectral feature used to measure black hole spin. A total of 720 reflection spectra are provided in a single FITS file{\url{http://hea-www.cfa.harvard.edu/~javier/xillver/}} suitable for the analysis of X-ray observations via the atable model in XSPEC. Detailed comparisons with previous reflection models illustrate the improvements incorporated in this version of XILLVER.

description: The implications of the Lorentz reciprocity theorem for a scatterer connected to waveguides with arbitrary modes, including degenerate, evanescent, and complex modes, are discussed. In general it turns out that a matrix $CS$ is symmetric, where $C$ is the matrix of generalized orthogonality coefficients, and $S$ is the scattering matrix. Examples are given, including a scatterer surrounded by waveguides or free space, and discontinuities of waveguides.
