description: The performance of adaptive optics systems is partially dependant on the algorithms used within the real-time control system to compute wavefront slope measurements. We demonstrate use of a matched filter algorithm for the processing of elongated laser guide star (LGS) Shack-Hartmann images, using the CANARY adaptive optics instrument on the 4.2m William Herschel Telescope and the European Southern Observatory Wendelstein LGS Unit placed 40m away. This algorithm has been selected for use with the forthcoming Thirty Meter Telescope, but until now had not been demonstrated on-sky. From the results of a first observing run, we show that the use of matched filtering improves our adaptive optics system performance, with increases in on-sky H-band Strehl measured up to about a factor of 1.1 with respect to a conventional centre of gravity approach. We describe the algorithm used, and the methods that we implemented to enable on-sky demonstration.

Unlocking the role of proactive motivational processes in driving customer engagement with special events in Thailand
Creators: name: Meeprom, Supawat
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Enhancing customer engagement creates both opportunities and challenges for scholars and practitioners, especially in the service sector. One critical service sector of global importance is tourism. Specifically, tourism plays a critical role in many economies, and, because of its large contribution to GDP growth, is receiving growing attention from academics and practitioners (World Travel & Tourism Council, 2018). Specifically, Thailand, as a preferred destination, is expected to continue its fast growth and become the third biggest market for visitors by 2027 (Ministry of Foreign Affairs, 2017). Customer engagement, when viewed from an organisational perspective, is an organisation’s strategies that encourage customers to connect to their service and brand, and stimulate long-term relationships. The potential outcomes of customer engagement include the attraction of new customers, reduced marketing budget activities, and a competitive advantage. The benefit of customer engagement from a customer perspective is the interaction through unique experiences with services and brands that serve to address their goals, and contribute to their subjective well-being. This study develops a theoretical framework underpinned by proactive motivation theory and regulatory mode theory, proposing specific triggers for driving and fostering customer engagement with special event tourism. To uncover the underlying reasons for customer engagement with special events, proactive motivation theory is adopted to gain a deeper understanding of customers’ reasons to attend and actively engage with a special event. Further, the role of regulatory mode orientation is adopted to gain a deeper appreciation of “can do” motivation as a key to fostering the relationship between customer’s proactive motivation and engagement with a special event. In addition, this theoretical framework articulates the moderating role of self-image congruence and perceived event crowding in the relationship between customer engagement with a special event and perceived special event quality. To test the proposed effects, this study uses a quantitative research approach with data drawn from three distinct special events in Thailand – the Sukhothai Loy Krathong and Candle Festival, the Khon Kaen International Marathon, and the Chiang Mai International Flower Festival. The findings advance knowledge in service marketing and tourism by offering theoretical explanations for the influence of drivers and consequences of customer engagement with a special event. In a practical context, this study also provides implications for tourism organisations to generate a better understanding of customers’ perception of special event experiences.

description: We provide experimental and theoretical insight into single-emitter lasing effects in a quantum dot (QD)-microlaser under controlled variation of background gain provided by off-resonant discrete gain centers. For that purpose, we apply an advanced two-color excitation concept where the background gain contribution of off-resonant QDs can be continuously tuned by precisely balancing the relative excitation power of two lasers emitting at different wavelengths. In this way, by selectively exciting a single resonant QD and off-resonant QDs, we identify distinct single-QD signatures in the lasing characteristics and distinguish between gain contributions of a single resonant emitter and a countable number of off-resonant background emitters to the optical output of the microlaser. We address the important question whether single-QD lasing is feasible in experimentally accessible systems and show that, for the investigated microlaser, the single-QD gain needs to be supported by the background gain contribution of off-resonant QDs to reach the transition to lasing. Interestingly, while a single QD cannot drive the investigated micropillar into lasing, its relative contribution to the emission can be as high as 70% and it dominates the statistics of emitted photons in the intermediate excitation regime below threshold.

Decision usefulness of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) in financial reports: evidence from Australian bank-lending officers
Creators: name: Alresheedi, Adel Dhaher
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) reports that the objective of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) is to ensure that the financial information provided by companies is useful for the economic decision-making for a variety of users (IASB,2015). It is anticipated that bank-lending officers may not perceive all the disclosures, recognition and measurement concepts in IFRS financial reports and the subsequent amendments relating to disclosures as being primarily useful for assessing the credit risk or creditworthiness of companies when granting a term loan. Therefore, two primary objectives guide the overall study – determining whether bank-lending officers perceive the accounting disclosures and measurement requirements of the IFRS useful for making their lending decisions, and whether the bank-lending officers perceive the subsequent amendments to the IFRS to be useful. The study employs a mixed methods approach of data collection, that is, a combination of quantitative data, collected through questionnaire surveys, and qualitative data, collected through semi-structured interviews.

description: LC-HRMS technology has been theorised as the single most suitable technique for toxicology testing. Coupling the power to separate complex mixtures with the accurate mass determinations of high-resolution mass spectrometry, this technologies adoption and implementation into routine clinical practice at a tertiary hospital was investigated. The LC-HRMS was found suitable to perform general unknown toxicology testing, unequivocally determining a wide range of drugs and provide insights into illicit drug use in the hospital setting. The large raw data sets were also shown to allow retrospective analysis to identify drugs unknown at the time of initial testing.

Quantification of scattering forces in a microfluidic channel
Creators: name: White, James
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Biological imaging will advance when fluorescent markers overcome the limitations of toxicity and photo instability. Recent work by Brown indicates that fluorescent nanodiamonds avoid these limitations, as the carbon composition of the diamond removes toxicity and the embedding of defects in the diamond lattice increases photo stability. The current limitation to the use of nanodiamonds in imaging applications is the brightness variations from particle-to-particle. A new project at Macquarie University aims to improve the brightness uniformity of nanodiamond materials using optical forces to sort particles by brightness. This thesis targets the first aim of the recently funded Macquarie project (DP170103010) which is to quantify the effect of scattering forces on nanomaterials. Fulfilling this aim required the development of a microfluidic device that was capable of observing nanomaterials and of enabling laser access. Particles in the channels of the developed devices were observed under the impact of a high powered laser and video data was analysed to track and map the trajectory of each particle. The experiment did not observe an optical force as the particles were not significantly impacted by the path of the laser. We believe that insufficient laser power was entering the channel due to the shallow height of the optical access. Future work on this project will require additional control of the laser setup and a redesign of the devices' optical accessibility.

description: We develop a theoretical approach that uses physiochemical kinetics modelling to describe cell population dynamics upon progression of viral infection in cell culture, which results in cell apoptosis (programmed cell death) and necrosis (direct cell death). Several model parameters necessary for computer simulation were determined by reviewing and analyzing available published experimental data. By comparing experimental data to computer modelling results, we identify the parameters that are the most sensitive to the measured system properties and allow for the best data fitting. Our model allows extraction of parameters from experimental data and also has predictive power. Using the model we describe interesting time-dependent quantities that were not directly measured in the experiment, and identify correlations among the fitted parameter values. Numerical simulation of viral infection progression is done by a rate-equation approach resulting in a system of "stiff" equations, which are solved by using a novel variant of the stochastic ensemble modelling approach. The latter was originally developed for coupled chemical reactions.

Avoided criticality and slow relaxation in frustrated two dimensional models

description: Frustration and the associated phenomenon of "avoided criticality" have been proposed as an explanation for the dramatic relaxation slowdown in glass-forming liquids. To test this, we have undertaken a Monte-Carlo study of possibly the simplest such problem, the 2-dimensional XY model with frustration corresponding to a small flux, $f$, per plaquette. At $f=0$, there is a Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless transition at $T^*$, but at any small but non-zero $f$, this transition is avoided, and replaced (presumably) by a vortex-ordering transition at much lower temperatures. We thus have studied the evolution of the dynamics for small and moderate $f$ as the system is cooled from above $T^*$ to below. While we do find strongly temperature dependent slowing of the dynamics as $T$ crosses $T^*$, and that simultaneously the dynamics becomes more complex, neither effect is anywhere nearly as dramatic as the corresponding phenomena in glass-forming liquids. At the very least, this implies that the properties of supercooled liquids must depend on more than frustration and the existence of an avoided transition.

description: Red clump stars are fundamental distance indicators in astrophysics, although theoretical stellar models predict a dependence of absolute magnitudes with ages. This effect is particularly strong below 2 Gyr, but even above this limit a mild age dependence is still expected. We use seismically identified red clump stars in the Kepler field for which we have reliable distances, masses and ages from the SAGA survey to first explore this effect. By excluding red clump stars with masses larger than 1.6 Msun (corresponding to ages younger than 2 Gyr), we derive robust calibrations linking intrinsic colors to absolute magnitudes in the following photometric systems: Strömgren $by$, Johnson $BV$, Sloan $griz$, 2MASS $JHK_s$ and WISE $W1W2W3$. With the precision achieved we also detect a slope of absolute magnitudes 0.020(0.003) mag per Gyrin the infrared, implying that distance calibrations of clump stars can be off by up to 0.2 mag in the infrared (over the range from 2 Gyr to 12 Gyr) if their ages are unknown. Even larger uncertainties affect optical bands, because of the stronger interdependency of absolute magnitudes on colors and age. Our distance calibrations are ultimately based on asteroseismology, and we show how the distance scale can be used to test the accuracy of seismic scaling relations. Within the uncertainties our calibrations are in agreement with those built upon local red clump with Hipparcos} parallaxes, although we find a tension which if confirmed would imply that scaling relations overestimate radii of red clump stars by 2(+-20%. Data-releases post Gaia DR1 will provide an important testbed for our results.

Today, the control of strain becomes an important challenge to improve GeSn devices. Strain micro-measurements are usually performed by Raman spectroscopy. However, different relationships linking the Raman spectral shifts to the built-in strain can be found in the literature. They were deduced from studies on low Sn content GeSn layers (i.e. xSn<8%) or on GeSiSn layers. In this work, we have calibrated the GeSn Raman relationship for really high Sn content GeSn binaries (6

description: The propagation of electromagnetic waves in general media is modeled by the time-dependent Maxwell's partial differential equations (PDEs), coupled with constitutive laws that describe the response of the media. In this work, we focus on nonlinear optical media whose response is modeled by a system of first order nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs), which include a single resonance linear Lorentz dispersion, and the nonlinearity comes from the instantaneous electronic Kerr response and the residual Raman molecular vibrational response. To design efficient, accurate, and stable computational methods, we apply high order discontinuous Galerkin discretizations in space to the hybrid PDE-ODE Maxwell system with several choices of numerical fluxes, and the resulting semi-discrete methods are shown to be energy stable. Under some restrictions on the strength of the nonlinearity, error estimates are also established. When we turn to fully discrete methods, the challenge to achieve provable stability lies in the temporal discretizations of the nonlinear terms. To overcome this, novel strategies are proposed to treat the nonlinearity in our model within the framework of the second-order leap-frog and implicit trapezoidal time integrators. The performance of the overall algorithms are demonstrated through numerical simulations of kink and antikink waves, and third-harmonic generation in soliton propagation.

Attitude of Students towards the Use of Library Facilities: A Case Study
Creators: name: Alokluk, Jamilah
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: Information is the most powerful tool in learning endeavours. Libraries are collections of information in organised ways to make it accessible to the target audience. The main challenge, however, is the underutilisation of library resources by students in many learning institutions. The purpose of this study was to determine the attitude of students towards the use of library facilities. The study involved 66 participants out of which 60 were students in different years of study, whereas 6 were library staff at Newcastle University, United Kingdom. Closed-ended questionnaires were administered to the students while structured face-to-face interviews were used to collect information from the library workers. The university recorded high rates of library usage of 92%. About49% of students used the library twice a week. The purposes of visiting the library in order of priority were finding space to read personal study notes, using the internet, using library materials within the building, reading newspapers, meeting friends and using printing and photocopy services. There was student dissatisfaction regarding the availability of comfortable space to study in the library. There was a lack of awareness about the inter-library borrowing facility, which was highly underutilised in the institution. Overall the study concluded that the students’ attitude towards the use of library facilities was positive. However, there was a need to implement the proposed recommendations to increase the use of library services.

description: The widespread adoption and dissemination of online news through social media systems have been revolutionizing many segments of our society and ultimately our daily lives. In these systems, users can play a central role as they share content to their friends. Despite that, little is known about news spreaders in social media. In this paper, we provide the first of its kind in-depth characterization of news spreaders in social media. In particular, we investigate their demographics, what kind of content they share, and the audience they reach. Among our main findings, we show that males and white users tend to be more active in terms of sharing news, biasing the news audience to the interests of these demographic groups. Our results also quantify differences in interests of news sharing across demographics, which has implications for personalized news digests.

description: The relative populations in rotational transitions of CO can be useful for inferring gas conditions and excitation mechanisms at work in the interstellar medium. We present CO emission lines from rotational transitions observed with Herschel/HIFI in the star-forming cores Orion S, Orion KL, Sgr B2(M), and W49N. Integrated line fluxes from these observations are combined with those from Herschel/PACS observations of the same sources to construct CO spectral line energy distributions (SLEDs) from $5\leq J_u\leq48$. These CO SLEDs are compared to those reported in other galaxies, with the intention of empirically determining which mechanisms dominate excitation in such systems. We find that CO SLEDs in Galactic star-forming cores cannot be used to reproduce those observed in other galaxies, although the discrepancies arise primarily as a result of beam filling factors. The much larger regions sampled by the Herschel beams at distances of several Mpc contain significant amounts of cooler gas which dominate the extragalactic CO SLEDs, in contrast to observations of Galactic star-forming regions which are focused specifically on cores containing primarily hot molecular gas.

The impacts of climate change on Australian reptiles

description: Climate change is anticipated to develop into one of the most significant threats to biodiversity this century. Reptiles are expected to be particularly vulnerable, yet they have received less attention in the climate change literature than some other taxonomic groups. In this thesis, I addressed this knowledge gap by investigating the impacts of climate change on the reptiles of Australia. In the first part of this thesis, I reviewed the published literature to assess why reptiles may be particularly vulnerable to climate change, and whether they have already started to respond in Australia. In the second part, I developed novel frameworks for evaluating the climate change vulnerability of three groups of reptiles - the elapid snakes, the skinks and the freshwater turtles - which integrated the output of environmental niche models and species ecological traits. In the final part, I performed a conservation planning exercise to identify areas within Australia that are important for reptile conservation, and remain important under future climate change. The results of this work were used to determine the species likely to be most vulnerable to climate change, and identify areas that may be particularly valuable additions to the existing National Reserve System.
FUN! What entertainment tells us about living a good life

Subjects: classificationCode: 470207
subject: Cultural theory

description: Combining media effects with aesthetic approaches this book offers the first substantial, systematic and coherent account of fun and its importance. But what exactly is fun and what purposes does it serve? Fun is a vital element of entertainment, and entertainment is the most important form of culture in modern Western democracies. It demonstrates that fun is at the heart of entertainment's effects – entertainment both offers its consumers fun and provides them with the intellectual materials to think about the nature of fun.More than this, the book argues that entertainment shows us that fun – pleasure without purpose – is at the heart of living a good life. Illustrated with detailed examples from entertainment – from the Urban Dictionary to The Simpsons, to the Culture novels of Iain M Banks – this book is intelligent, original, and even (dare we say it) fun.

Evolutionary Dynamics of Group Formation

description: We introduce a model, based on the Evolutionary Game Theory, for studying the dynamics of group formation. The latter constitutes a relevant phenomenon observed in different animal species, whose individuals tend to cluster together forming groups of different size. Results of previous investigations suggest that this phenomenon might have similar reasons across different species, such as improving the individual safety (e.g. from predators), and increasing the probability to get food resources. Remarkably, the group size might strongly vary from species to species, and sometimes even within the same species. In the proposed model, an agent population tries to form homogeneous groups. The homogeneity of a group is computed according to a spin vector, that characterizes each agent, and represents a set a features (e.g. physical traits). We analyze the formation of groups of different size, on varying a parameter named 'individual payoff'. The latter represents the gain one agent would receive acting individually. In particular, the agents choose whether to form a group (receiving a 'group payoff'), or if to play individually (receiving an 'individual payoff'). The phase diagram representing the equilibria of our population shows a sharp transition between the 'group phase' and the 'individual phase', in correspondence of a critical 'individual payoff'. In addition, we found that forming (homogeneous) small groups is easier than forming big groups. To conclude, we deem that our model and the related results supports the hypothesis that the phenomenon of group formation has evolutionary roots.

Prospects of odd and even harmonics generation by an atom in high-intensity laser field

description: New approach to study the spontaneous emission of the atomic system in the presence of the high-intensity laser field is used to study the process of harmonic generation. The analysis is based on the consideration of quantum system interaction with quantized field modes beeing in vacuum state, while the intense laser field is considered classically beyond the perturbation theory. The numerical analysis of the emission from the single one-electron one dimensional atom irradiated by the femtosecond laser pulse of Ti-Sa laser is discussed. It is demonstrated that not only odd but also even harmonics can be emitted if the laser field is strong enough. The origin of appearance of even harmonics is studied. The obtained results are compared with that found in the frames of semiclassical approach widely used to study the harmonic generation. It is found that semiclassical approach is inapplicable in the strong-field limit.

Cooper pairs without 'glue' in high-$T_c$ superconductors

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

description: We address the origin of the Cooper pairs in high-$T_c$ cuprates and the unique nature of the superconducting (SC) condensate. Itinerant holes in an antiferromagnetic background form pairs spontaneously, without any `glue', defining a new quantum object the `pairon'. In the incoherent pseudogap phase, above $T_c$ or within the vortex core, the pairon binding energies are distributed statistically, forming a `Cooper-pair glass'. Contrary to conventional SC, it is the mutual pair-pair interaction that is responsable for the condensation. We give a natural explanation for the {\it ergodic rigidity} of the excitation gap, being uniquely determined by the carrier concentration $p$ and $J$. The phase diagram can be understood, without spin fluctuations, in terms of a single energy scale $\sim J$, the exchange energy at the metal-insulator transition.

Genetic identification of sharks traded and consumed in Australia

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Shark species worldwide are under threat mainly from over harvesting either as by catch or in targeted fisheries. In Australia shark flesh is mostly sold under the name 'flake' and distributed around the country. The Australian Fish Names Standard state that sharks sold under the name flake must be either Australian Gummy shark (Mustelus antarcticus) or New Zealand rig (Mustelus lenticulatus), however labelling is not mandatory. In this study we hypothesized that many sharks sold as flake did not qualify under the naming standard, and that threatened species were being traded. We used DNA barcoding to identify species from 91 samples obtained from 29 seafood retailers across the country. To determine species composition we used Sanger sequencing of two genes, the Cytochrome Oxidase subunit one gene (CO1) and the 12S mitochondrial RNA gene (12S). We identified 67 cases (78.8%) of misllabeling and 16 cases (35.6%) of threatened species being traded, including the Scalloped Hammerhead (Sphryna lewini) and School Shark (Galeorhinus galeus). Our results showed that mislabelling of shark flesh is occurring in Australia, and that threatened species make up a sizeable portion of the species sold. These data demonstrate the need to improve labelling standards to work towards minimizing our impact on threatened shark species -- abstract
