description: Coexistence of different geometric shapes at low energies presents a universal structure phenomenon that occurs over the entire chart of nuclides. Studies of the shape coexistence are important for understanding the microscopic origin of collectivity and modifications of shell structure in exotic nuclei far from stability. The aim of this work is to provide a systematic analysis of characteristic signatures of coexisting nuclear shapes in different mass regions, using a global self-consistent theoretical method based on universal energy density functionals and the quadrupole collective model. The low-energy excitation spectrum and quadrupole shape invariants of the two lowest $0^{+}$ states of even-even nuclei are obtained as solutions of a five-dimensional collective Hamiltonian (5DCH) model, with parameters determined by constrained self-consistent mean-field calculations based on the relativistic energy density functional PC-PK1, and a finite-range pairing interaction. The theoretical excitation energies of the states: $2^+_1$, $4^+_1$, $0^+_2$, $2^+_2$, $2^+_3$, as well as the $B(E2; 0^+_1\to 2^+_1)$ values, are in very good agreement with the corresponding experimental values for 621 even-even nuclei. Quadrupole shape invariants have been implemented to investigate shape coexistence, and the distribution of possible shape-coexisting nuclei is consistent with results obtained in recent theoretical studies and available data. The present analysis has shown that, when based on a universal and consistent microscopic framework of nuclear density functionals, shape invariants provide distinct indicators and reliable predictions for the occurrence of low-energy coexisting shapes. This method is particularly useful for studies of shape coexistence in regions far from stability where few data are available.

description: Bacillus cereus is a Gram-positive opportunistic pathogen closely related to the entomopathogen, Bacillus thuringiensis, both of which are involved in intestinal infections. Iron is an essential micronutrient for full growth and virulence of pathogens during infection. However, little is known about iron homeostasis during gut infection. Therefore, we aimed to assess the expression of B. cereus genes related to bacterial iron homeostasis, virulence and oxidative stress. The hypothesis is that the expression of such genes would vary between early and later stage colonization in correlation to gut cell damage. To perform the study, a germ-free Galleria mellonella model was set up in order to adapt the use of Laser-capture microdissection (LCM), to select precise areas in the gut lumen from frozen whole larval cryo-sections. Analyses were performed from alive larvae and the expression of targeted genes was assessed byspecific pre-amplification of mRNA followed by quantitative PCR. Firstly, the results reinforce the reliability of LCM, despite a low amount of bacterial RNA recovered. Secondly, bacterial genes involved in iron homeostasis are expressed in the lumen at both 3 and 16 hours post force-feeding. Thirdly, iron gene expression is slightly modulated during gut infection, and lastly, the mRNA of G. mellonella encoding for ferritin and transferrin iron storage and transport are recovered too. Therefore, iron homeostasis should play a role in B. cereus gut colonization. Furthermore, we demonstrate for the first time the value of using LCM for specific in situ gene expression analysis of extracellular bacteria in a whole animal.

description: In this work we use the semi-empirical atmospheric modeling method to obtain the chro-mospheric temperature, pressure, density and magnetic field distribution versus height in the K2 primary component of the RS CVn binary system HR 7428. While temperature, pressure, density are the standard output of the semi-empirical modeling technique, the chromospheric magnetic field estimation versus height comes from considering the possibility of not im-posing hydrostatic equilibrium in the semi-empirical computation. The stability of the best non-hydrostatic equilibrium model, implies the presence of an additive (toward the center of the star) pressure, that decreases in strength from the base of the chromosphere toward the outer layers. Interpreting the additive pressure as magnetic pressure we estimated a magnetic field intensity of about 500 gauss at the base of the chromosphere.

Literacy and social disadvantage: an evaluation of research-based literacy interventions for low-progress readers in a school with high levels of socioeconomic disadvantage
Creators: name: Buckingham, Jennifer
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: This thesis has three main components. First, a literature review investigating the links between socioeconomic disadvantage and literacy, published in two parts. Part I looks at the early (prior to school) years and finds that the relationship between socioeconomic status and literacy is largely due to proximal factors associated with social disadvantage, including the quality of the early home learning environment and parenting practices. Part II focuses on the school years, finding that literacy gaps associated with socioeconomic status are mediated by other factors at both the individual level and, more powerfully, at the school level. This includes quality of literacy instruction. Second, results of experimental studies of school-based reading intervention trials are reported in four papers. Two papers report the results of randomised control trials of two small group interventions — one for young struggling readers (MiniLit) and one for older low-progress readers (MultiLit). Both found especially strong effects on measures of phonological recoding. Follow up studies of participants in these trials are also reported in two papers,which compare the responses to the intervention in the two phases. A fifth paper provides a case study of the implementation of the trials in the context of the participating school. A discussion chapter synthesises the findings of the literature reviews and the experimental studies, and draws conclusions for research and practice. Finally, a paper is included that argues that the literacy gap associated with socioeconomic status can be ameliorated with good instruction and intervention, and that these are still lacking in many schools due to inadequate teacher preparation and misguided policy.

description: Non-classical correlations arising in complex quantum networks are attracting growing interest, both from a fundamental perspective and for potential applications in information processing. In particular, in an entanglement swapping scenario a new kind of correlations arise, the so-called nonbilocal correlations that are incompatible with local realism augmented with the assumption that the sources of states used in the experiment are independent. In practice, however, bilocality tests impose strict constraints on the experimental setup and in particular to presence of shared reference frames between the parties. Here, we experimentally address this point showing that false positive nonbilocal quantum correlations can be observed even though the sources of states are independent. To overcome this problem, we propose and demonstrate a new scheme for the violation of bilocality that does not require shared reference frames and thus constitute an important building block for future investigations of quantum correlations in complex networks.

A Test of the Neutron Star Hypothesis for Fomalhaut b

description: Fomalhaut b is a directly imaged object in the debris disk of the star Fomalhaut. It has been hypothesized to be a planet, however there are issues with the observed colours of the object that do not fit planetary models. An alternative hypothesis is that the object is a neutron star in the near fore- or background of Fomalhaut's disk. We test if Fomalhaut b could be a neutron star using X-ray observations with Chandra's HRC-I instrument in the energy range of 0.08-10 keV. We do not detect X-ray emission from either Fomalhaut b or the star Fomalhaut itself. Our nondetection corresponds to an upper limit on the X-ray flux of Fomalhaut b of F_X < 1.3e-14 erg/cm/s^2 in the energy range 0.08-10 keV. For the A-type central star Fomalhaut, we derive an X-ray upper limit of L_X < 2e25 erg/s in the energy range 0.08-10 keV. Fomalhaut b's X-ray non-detection constrains the parameter space for a possible neutron star significantly, implying surface temperatures lower than 91000 K and distances closer than 13.3 pc to the solar system. In addition we find that reflected starlight from the central star fits the available optical detections of Fomalhaut b; a smaller planet with a large ring system might explain such a scenario.

The stellar initial mass function and total mass profiles of early-type galaxies
Creators: name: Poci, Adriano
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: The universality of the stellar Initial Mass Function (IMF) remains an open question to this day. Studies where individual stars can be counted provide strong evidence for universality in and around the Milky Way, while recent extragalactic studies find evidence for a dependence on galactic properties. In this work, we constrain the systematic variations of the IMF that have been observed in early-type galaxies, by constructing detailed dynamical models from kinematic observations. We account for the effects of spatially-varying stellar populations by computing star-formation histories from the observed spectra, and incorporating the resulting stellar mass-to-light ratio variations into the dynamical models. In addition, we determine total mass distributions, and separate the contributions from the stellar and dark matter components. This allows for inferences on the central dark matter fraction, as well as constraints on scaling relations of the total mass profile slope with galactic observables.

description: Mycobacterium (M.) abscessus infections in Cystic Fibrosis (CF) patients cause a deterioration of lung function. Treatment of these multidrug-resistant pathogens is associated with severe side-effects, while frequently unsuccessful. Insight on M. abscessus genomic evolvement during chronic lung infection would be beneficial for improving treatment strategies. A longitudinal study enrolling 42 CF patients was performed at a CF center in Berlin, Germany, to elaborate phylogeny and genomic diversification of in-patient M. abscessus. Eleven of the 42 CF patients were infected with M. abscessus. Five of these 11 patients were infected with global human-transmissible M. abscessus cluster strains. Phylogenetic analysis of 88 genomes from isolates of the 11 patients excluded occurrence of M. abscessus transmission among members of the study group. Genome sequencing and variant analysis of 30 isolates from 11 serial respiratory samples collected over 4.5 years from a chronically infected patient demonstrated accumulation of gene mutations. In total, 53 genes exhibiting non-synonymous variations were identified. Enrichment analysis emphasized genes involved in synthesis of glycopeptidolipids, genes from the embABC (arabinosyltransferase) operon, betA (glucose-methanol-choline oxidoreductase) and choD (cholesterol oxidase). Genetic diversity evolved in a variety of virulence- and resistance-associated genes. The strategy of M. abscessus populations in chronic lung infection is not clonal expansion of dominant variants, but to sustain simultaneously a wide range of genetic variants facilitating adaptation of the population to changing living conditions in the lung. Genomic diversification during chronic infection requires increased attention when new control strategies against M. abscessus infections are explored.

description: We have obtained new images of the protoplanetary disk orbiting TW Hya in visible, total intensity light with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), using the newly commissioned BAR5 occulter. These HST/STIS observations achieved an inner working angle $\sim$0.2\arcsec, or 11.7~AU, probing the system at angular radii coincident with recent images of the disk obtained by ALMA and in polarized intensity near-infrared light. By comparing our new STIS images to those taken with STIS in 2000 and with NICMOS in 1998, 2004, and 2005, we demonstrate that TW Hya's azimuthal surface brightness asymmetry moves coherently in position angle. Between 50~AU and 141~AU we measure a constant angular velocity in the azimuthal brightness asymmetry of 22.7$^\circ$~yr$^{-1}$ in a counter-clockwise direction, equivalent to a period of 15.9~yr assuming circular motion. Both the (short) inferred period and lack of radial dependence of the moving shadow pattern are inconsistent with Keplerian rotation at these disk radii. We hypothesize that the asymmetry arises from the fact that the disk interior to 1~AU is inclined and precessing due to a planetary companion, thus partially shadowing the outer disk. Further monitoring of this and other shadows on protoplanetary disks potentially opens a new avenue for indirectly observing the sites of planet formation.

description: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) of the ST1-SCCmecIV lineage has been associated with community-acquired (CA) infections in North America and Australia. In Brazil, multi-drug resistant ST1-SCCmecIV MRSA has emerged in hospital-associated (HA) diseases in Rio de Janeiro. To understand these epidemiological differences, genomic and phylogenetic analyses were performed. In addition, virulence assays were done for representative CA – and HA-MRSA strains. Despite the conservation of the virulence repertoire, some genes were missing in Brazilian ST1-SCCmecIV including lukSF-PV, fnbB, and several superantigen-encoded genes. Additionally, CA-MRSA lost the splDE while HA-MRSA strains conserved the complete operon. Most of these variable genes were located in mobile genetic elements (MGE). However, conservation and maintenance of MGEs were often observed despite the absence of their associated virulence markers. A Bayesian phylogenetic tree revealed the occurrence of more than one entrance of ST1 strains in Rio de Janeiro. The tree shape and chronology allowed us to infer that the hospital-associated ST1-SCCmecIV from Brazil and the community-acquired USA400 from North America are not closely related and that they might have originated from different MSSA strains that independently acquired SCCmecIV cassettes. As expected, representatives of ST1 strains from Brazil showed lower cytotoxicity and a greater ability to survive inside human host cells. We suggest that Brazilian ST1-SCCmecIV strains have adapted to the hospital setting by reducing virulence and gaining the ability to persist and survive inside host cells. Possibly, these evolutionary strategies may balance the biologic cost of retaining multiple antibiotic resistance genes.

In this article we generalize this mild Itô formula so that it is applicable to solutions and numerical approximations of SPDEs which are formulated as SEEs on UMD (unconditional martingale differences) Banach spaces. This generalization is especially useful for proving essentially sharp weak convergence rates for numerical approximations of SPDEs.

description: Eclipsing binaries provide a unique opportunity to determine fundamental stellar properties. In the era of wide-field cameras and all-sky imaging surveys, thousands of eclipsing binaries have been reported through light curve classification, yet their basic properties remain unexplored due to the extensive efforts needed to follow them up spectroscopically. In this paper we investigate three M2-M3 type double-lined eclipsing binaries discovered by cross-matching eclipsing binaries from the Catalina Sky Survey wtih spectroscopically classified M dwarfs from the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope survey data release one and two. Because these three M dwarf binaries are faint, we further acquire radial velocity measurements using GMOS on the Gemini North telescope with R~40000, enabling us to determine the mass and radius of individual stellar components. By jointly fitting the light and radial velocity curves of these systems, we derive the mass and radius of the primary and secondary components of these three systems, in the range between 0.28-0.42 M_sun and 0.29-0.67 R_sun, respectively. Future observations with a high resolution spectrograph will help us pin down the uncertainties in their stellar parameters, and render these systems benchmarks to study m dwarfs, providing inputs to improving stellar models in the low mass regime, or establishing an empirical mass-radius relation for M dwarf stars.

description: Although sawsharks are frequent by-catch in commercial deep-water fisheries, our understanding of their behaviour is limited; in particular with regards to how they use their barbels and rostrum. This project employed a variety of techniques to infer how sawsharks use their barbels and rostrum. Evidence from histology and preliminary fluorescent microscopy work suggests that the barbels serve a tactile function, since they lack sensory structures such as taste buds, free neuromasts and ampullae, and contain neurons in the epidermis that may be connected to tactile receptors or free nerve endings. Regression analysis also provided evidence to suggest that sawsharks may have a preference as to whether they use the left or right barbel to sense the environment (behavioural lateralisation). Microwear (i.e. scratches) on the rostral teeth of sawsharks and sawfishes was found to be similar, suggesting that both elasmobranchs use their rostrum for a similar purpose. Analysis of stomach contents from recently caught sawsharks showed that diet consisted of small fish and prawns; however, whole prey items did not show signs of impalement by rostral teeth. Histological investigation of the unusual structure on the tip of the rostrum (named the "fingerprint") regarding a possible sensory purpose was inconclusive. These results provide important first steps in understanding the biology and behaviour of sawsharks and may prove useful for the management of threatened sawshark species, as well as deep-water fisheries in general.

description: "Australian firms, already strong practitioners of creative accounting, are jumping on the bandwagon [of a change to an IASB standard allowing firms flexibility to amortise assets]" - Paul Kerin (The Australian, 13 April 2009). A search of articles in the Australian news media specifically using the words "creative accounting" reveals widespread use of this term. The world economic crisis of 2008 and 2009 has again placed a spotlight on financial reports of public companies and the accounting standards from which the reports are derived. -- Despite some studies having suggested that investors are not fooled by creative accounting practices (that investors somehow see through accounting techniques and adjust for differences (Dharan and Lev 1993 p493), it seems clear that the market has been fooled by financial reports which did not reflect the real-world phenomena, at least anecdotally (Sterling and Harrison 1974 p147). -- The accounting profession has a special franchise granted to it by the community, to appraise the value and legitimacy of end-of-year financial reports (Briloff 2002 p1). Some suggest creative accounting conjures perceptions of financial permissiveness, and the continued presence of creative accounting practices evidenced through autopsies of corporate failures is associated with a crisis of confidence in the Australian accounting profession (Clarke et al. 2003 pp29-30). -- There has been limited empirical work identifying creative accounting in Australia (Healy and Wahlen 1999). A central thesis of this dissertation is to ascertain empirically the extent creative accounting may be present in financial statements of Australian companies from 1998 to 2004. -- Three tests were utilised to obtain evidence which may be consistent with the potential presence of creative accounting: a histogram analysis (Holland and Ramsey 2003), a regression analysis based on the Jones (1991) model and a gamma regression model (developed within) with supporting company case studies. An initial sample comprised 71 firms (497 firm years) who were listed as top 200 Australia companies continuously in each of the seven years of the sample period. The financial sector has been included within this dissertation, in contrast to other Australian studies where this sector has been specifically excluded. -- The findings of this dissertation provide evidence that certain Australian ASX 200 companies' financial reports are likely to contain creative accounting. The histogram analysis of the reported profits provides the strongest evidence that creative accounting is within the financial reports of certain sample companies, whilst the Jones (1991) regression analysis proves to be a weak indicator of creative accounting within the sample companies. An explorative model was developed and identified the financial reports of three companies which exhibited likely signals of creative accounting.

description: One of the proposed strategies for the development of a more efficient HIV-1 vaccine is based on the identification of proteins binding to a paratope of chosen broadly neutralizing antibody (bNAb) that will mimic cognate HIV-1 Env (glyco)protein epitope and could be used as potent immunogens for induction of protective virus-neutralizing antibodies in the immunized individuals. To verify this “non-cognate ligand” concept, we developed a highly complex combinatorial library designed on a scaffold of human myomesin-1 protein domain and selected proteins called Myomedins specifically binding to variable regions of HIV-1 broadly neutralizing antibody 10E8. Immunization of mice with these Myomedin variants elicited the production of HIV-1 Env-specific antibodies. Hyperimmune sera bound to Env pseudotyped viruses and weakly/moderately neutralized 54% of tested clade A, B, C, and AE pseudotyped viruses variants in vitro. These results demonstrate that Myomedin variants have the potential to mimic Env epitopes and could be used as potential HIV-1 vaccine components.

description: To investigate the role of social cognitive processes in underage drinking, this thesis presents three studies which examined two social cognitive processes (moral disengagement and anticipated social outcomes) and how they relate to adolescents' engagement in underage drinking and experience of alcohol-related harm. The first study, based primarily on a sample of 636 (386 females) adolescents (14-17 years), developed a reliable and valid Underage Drinking Disengagement Scale (UDDS). Further, moderated mediation analyses revealed that associations between negative evaluations about underage drinking, anticipatory guilt, and engagement in underage drinking, or experience of alcohol-related harm, were weaker at high compared to low scores on the UDDS. In the second study, based on data collected from 651 (329 female) adolescents (12-16 years), two scales assessing the social outcomes adolescents anticipate for drinking alcohol (Drink ASO Scale) and for being drunk (Drunk ASO Scale) were developed. For each scale, factor analyses confirmed separate sub-scales representing anticipated social outcomes for mothers, fathers, and peers. Additionally, results revealed that anticipation of less social censure for drinking alcohol related to greater engagement in underage drinking, while for underage drinkers, less social censure for being drunk more strongly related to greater experience of alcohol-related harm. In the third study, participants, derived from the same sample as study two, were 347 (161 female) underage drinkers who were assessed at three time points, eight months apart. Latent growth modelling revealed that, across time, underage drinking disengagement and anticipated social outcomes for being drunk independently contributed to an increase in adolescents' alcohol use and experience of alcohol-related harm. The findings from this thesis highlight the importance of understanding how adolescents self-regulate their drinking and ways that such self-regulation may be disengaged. Further, this thesis highlights the self-regulatory influences of parents and peers on adolescents' use of alcohol and experience of alcohol-related harm.

description: The functionality of GooFit, a GPU-friendly framework for doing maximum-likelihood fits, has been extended to extract model-independent S-wave amplitudes in three-body decays such as $D^+ \to h^+h^+h^-$. A full amplitude analysis is done where the magnitudes and phases of the S-wave amplitudes are anchored at a finite number of $m^2(h^+h^-)$ control points, and a cubic spline is used to interpolate between these points. The amplitudes for P-wave and D-wave intermediate states are modeled as spin-dependent Breit-Wigner resonances. GooFit uses the Thrust library, with a CUDA backend for NVIDIA GPUs and an OpenMP backend for threads with conventional CPUs. Performance on a variety of platforms is compared. Executing on systems with GPUs is typically a few hundred times faster than executing the same algorithm on a single CPU.

description: Candida auris is an emerging multidrug-resistant fungal pathogen responsible for nosocomial outbreaks of invasive candidiasis. Although several studies on the pathogenicity of this species have been reported, the knowledge on C. auris virulence is still limited. This study aims to analyze the pathogenicity of C. auris, using one aggregating isolate and eleven non-aggregating isolates from different clinical origins (blood, urine and oropharyngeal specimens) in two alternative host models of candidiasis: Caenorhabditis elegans and Galleria mellonella. Furthermore, possible associations between virulence, aggregation, biofilm-forming capacity, and clinical origin were assessed. The aggregating phenotype isolate was less virulent in both in vivo invertebrate infection models than non-aggregating isolates but showed higher capacity to form biofilms. Blood isolates were significantly more virulent than those isolated from urine and respiratory specimens in the G. mellonella model of candidiasis. We conclude that both models of candidiasis present pros and cons but prove useful to evaluate the virulence of C. auris in vivo. Both models also evidence the heterogeneity in virulence that this species can develop, which may be influenced by the aggregative phenotype and clinical origin.
