The Unnamed Society (1925-1931) : an evaluation of a literary group of the post 1919 (May fourth) era
Creators: name: Lock, Jane
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1983

description: The May Fourth era, and its aftermath, represents one of the most exuberant periods in Chinese literary history. Thus, it has attracted much research and debate amongst Chinese and Western scholars. It is not surprising that with the proliferation of literary societies and journals during that period, each advocating and asserting its Chinese or Western values; each competing against one another, that the most influential groups, or the most popular journals, would incite the most discussion. Due to their large numbers and a lack of reliable source materials, literary associations of minor importance were naturally ignored or inadequately described in publications on the intellectual revolution in Modern China. The Unnamed Society, Weiming She, one of many such groups, has until recently, remained in the background of the modern Chinese literary scene.

LECTOTYPE: Gender not known. Herein designated. Type locality: Amazones (Peru) (MNHN). CORPORAAL 1950: 100. It is not known how many specimens were available to Pic. He did not select a holotype, therefore, I invoke Recommendation 73F of the ICZN (1999) and designate a lectotype for this nominal species.
 A d d i t i o n a l m a t e r i a l e x a m i n e d (Fig. 99): In addition to the lectotype, I examined 6 specimens from: Peru: Provincia de San Marti n, Tarapoto,?-V-VIII-1886, M. de Mathan, Specimens are deposited in: BMNH, MNHN, and WOPC.
D i a g n o s i s: Forebody, antennae, pterothorax, legs, and abdomen castaneous; elytra mostly castaneous, each elytron with 4 yellow markings, one covering elytral base, one large, triangular conjoined with epipleural margin just anterior to elytral middle, one short, oblique line just behind elytral middle near sutural margin, one oval marking near elytral apex.

description: Investigation of momentum space correlations of particles produced in high energy reactions requires taking final state interactions into account, a crucial point of any such analysis. Coulomb interaction between charged particles is the most important such effect. In small systems like those created in e+e- or p+p collisions, the so-called Gamow factor (valid for a point-like particle source) gives an acceptable description of the Coulomb interaction. However, in larger systems such as central or mid-central heavy ion collisions, more involved approaches are needed. In this paper we investigate the Coulomb final state interaction for Levy-type source functions that were recently shown to be of much interest for a refined description of the space-time picture of particle production in heavy-ion collisions.

description: Five-brane distributions with no strong coupling problems and high symmetry are studied. The simplest configuration corresponds to a spherical shell of branes with S^3 geometry and symmetry. The equations of motions with delta-function sources are carefully solved in such backgrounds. Various other brane distributions with sixteen unbroken supercharges are described. They are associated to exact world-sheet superconformal field theories with domain-walls in space-time. We study the equations of gravitational fluctuations, find normalizable modes of bulk 6-d gravitons and confirm the existence of a mass gap. We also study the moduli of the configurations and derive their (normalizable) wave-functions. We use our results to calculate in a controllable fashion using holography, the two-point function of the stress tensor of little string theory in these vacua.

description: Objectives: Driving under the influence (DUI) of drugs or alcohol impairs driving performance and, as a result, increases the risk of crashes. The risk of DUI is five-fold higher for young drivers (aged 18-25 years), but little is known about what determines their DUI intentions. This study applied an extended model of the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) to address the research question of what factors might influence young drivers' future intentions to DUI. Methods: This study used a survey obtaining data from 329 young drivers (Mage = 20.92 years, SD = 2.16) in Australia. Beyond the standard TPB measures of attitudes, subjective norms and perceived behavioral control (PBC), the current study included demographic variables and additional predictors (i.e., moral norm, peers' norm, perceived risk, impulsivity and past DUI behavior). Results: A vast majority of the participants (85.1%) selected the maximum (9, never), meaning that they had no intention to DUI in the future. Overall, a stepwise multilevel logistic regression analysis (Step 1: demographics, Step 2: TPB measures, and Step 3: additional predictors) explained between 30.1% and 52.9% of the variance in DUI intentions. It showed past DUI behavior as the strongest predictor of DUI intention, followed by instrumental attitude and descriptive norms. Conclusions: This study explored an extended TPB model to understand young drivers' DUI intentions better. With this new knowledge of understanding the factors that influence DUI, researchers and practitioners can create interventions and strategies that are better tailored to the population of young drivers at higher risk.

description: The method of iterated resolvents is used to obtain an effective Hamiltonian for neighbouring qubits in the Kane solid state quantum computer. In contrast to the adiabatic gate processes inherent in the Kane proposal we show that free evolution of the qubit-qubit system, as generated by this effective Hamiltonian, combined with single qubit operations, is sufficient to produce a controlled-NOT (c-NOT) gate. Thus the usual set of universal gates can be obtained on the Kane quantum computer without the need for adiabatic switching of the controllable parameters as prescribed by Kane. Both the fidelity and gate time of this non-adiabatic c-NOT gate are determined by numerical simulation.

description: Charge transport in amorphous oxide semiconductors is often described as the band transport affected by disorder in the form of random potential barriers (RB). Theoretical studies in the framework of this approach neglected so far the percolation nature of the phenomenon. In this article, a recipe for theoretical description of charge transport in the RB model is formulated using percolation arguments. Comparison with the results published so far evidences the superiority of the percolation approach.

description: Speeding in work zones is common and poses significant safety hazards to motorists and workers. Previous studies have demonstrated that speeding is reduced when workers are visible to the drivers, suggesting that concern for the safety of workers influences drivers’ speed choice. Conversely, the extent of speeding when workers are not visible suggests that drivers underestimate the increased risk of crashes or other damage to their vehicles associated with the poorer road conditions common at roadworks (loose surfaces and debris, narrower lane width and drop-offs etc.). To better understand the factors influencing drivers’ speeds in work zones, this paper examined the extent to which drivers’ speed choices are influenced by their perceived likelihoods of injuring workers and damaging their own vehicles. Driver-nominated speeds and perceived likelihoods of worker injury and vehicle damage were collected in an online survey of 405 drivers from Queensland, Australia, by showing photographs of 12 real-world work zones. The data were analyzed using regression techniques to examine the factors influencing driver-nominated speeds and likelihood of speeding. The results supported the hypothesis that both drivers’ perceived likelihood of injuring workers and damaging vehicles strongly influence their nominated speeds (p In addition to driver demographic and work zone characteristics, drivers’ perceptions of safe speeds depend on their perceptions of the likelihood of worker injury and vehicle damage at work zones. These findings suggest that interventions to heighten drivers’ perceptions of the likelihood of damage to their vehicles may be useful in moderating speeds at roadworks.
Antara Kampung Dan Kota : rural bias in the novels of Shahnon Ahmad
Creators: name: Tahir, Ungku Maimunah Mohd
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1984
Subjects: subject: Shahnon Ahmad, 1933-

description: This thesis examines the rural bias in the novels of Shahnon Ahmad, its characteristics and its presentation. It sees this bias as a product of an active process between Shahnon the man, the writer, his craft, and the literary conventions which surround him. The thesis attempts firstly to locate Shahnon and his novels within the various manifestations of rural bias which characterize the development of modern Malay literature. It then explores the particular form which the rural bias takes in Shahnon's novels, firstly from the perspective of the core of values and perceptions which inform his works. It argues that Shahnon's novels propose a perception of class division in Malay society between the elite (golongan atasan) and the masses (rakyat), the latter made up of the proletariat and, more importantly, the peasantry. It stresses that the novels demonstrate the presence of an inherent conflict between the two classes, and also that of an active movement towards a resolution of this conflict. In presenting this clash, the novels assert certain potentials and features as innate to the peasantry, just as there are characteristics peculiar to the elite. Moreover, they emphasize that those qualities inherent in the peasantry are instrumental in determining and directing the course of the conflict, including its final outcome. The rural bias is explored also from the perspective of the intrinsic structure of the works. The thesis examines the use of the various elements of the craft of fiction in the novels. It proposes the presence of a pattern of conflict in the kampung (village) novels, and its corresponding muting or, ln some cases, effacement in the kota (city) ones. It suggests that the utilization and elaboration of this pattern of conflict underlies the presumed success and failure of the kampung and kota novels respectively.

description: The analysis of the structure, chemical stability, electronic and ferroelectric properties of the interfaces between Pt(001) and PbZrTiO$_3$(001) (PZT) have been performed with $ab$ $initio$ methods. We show that the chemical environment plays a critical role in determining the interfacial reconstruction and charge redistribution at the metal/oxide interfaces. We demonstrate that the difference in interfacial bonds formed at the Pt/PZT interfaces with (TiZr)O$_2$ - and PbO- termination of PZT essentially defines the effectiveness of the screening, and ease of polarisation switching in PZT-based capacitors. The imperfect screening in Pt/PZT/Pt capacitors is caused by strong interfacial bonds formed at the interface with (TiZr)O$_2$-terminated film, which is accompanied by the suppressed polarisation of PZT film. In contrast, the capacitors with PbO-terminated PZT show a negligible depolarising field and high polarisation, which is the consequence of weak bonds formed at this type of interfaces. The latter also causes a higher switching barrier than that in the former system.

description: Winds from star-forming galaxies provide the most promising explanation for the enrichment of the intergalactic medium with heavy elements. Theoretical and observational arguments indicate that the pollution may have occurred at z > 6; however, direct observational tests of such a scenario are needed. We model starburst winds in the high-redshift universe and find that the fraction of space filled by enriched material varies strongly with the assumed star formation efficiency f_* and the fraction of supernova energy powering each wind, f_esc. We show that metals carried by these winds can be seen in absorption against bright background sources, such as quasars or gamma-ray bursts, in narrow lines with characteristic equivalent widths ~0.5 < W < 5 Angstrom. We argue that a substantial fraction of the metals in high-redshift winds are likely to reside in low ionization states (CII, OI, SiII, and FeII), but higher ionization states (CIV and SiIV) could also provide useful probes of the winds. The number of such lines can constrain both f_* and f_esc. Statistics of metal absorption lines can also be used to identify whether molecular hydrogen is an efficient coolant in the early universe and to study the initial mass function of stars at high redshifts.

description: We study transitions between the Floquet states of a periodically driven oscillator caused by the coupling of the oscillator to a thermal reservoir. The analysis refers to the oscillator that is driven close to triple its eigenfrequency and displays resonant period tripling. The interstate transitions result in a random ``walk'' over the states. We find the transition rates and show that the walk is nonlocal in the state space: the stationary distribution over the states is formed by the transitions between remote states. This is to be contrasted with systems in thermal equilibrium, where the distribution is usually formed by transitions between nearby states. The analysis of period tripling allows us to explore the features of the multi-state Floquet dynamics including those missing in the previously explored models of driven oscillators such as the absence of detailed balance for low temperatures. We use the results to study switching between the period-3 states of the oscillator due to quantum fluctuations and find the scaling of the switching rates with the parameters.

Detecting the progenitors of core collapse supernovae

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The masses and the evolutionary states of the progenitors of core-collapse supernovae are not well constrained by direct observations. Stellar evolution theory generally predicts that massive stars with initial masses less than about 30M_sol should undergo core-collapse when they are cool M-type supergiants. However the only two detections of a SN progenitor before explosion are SN1987A and SN1993J, and neither of these was an M-type supergiant. Attempting to identify the progenitors of supernovae is a difficult task, as precisely predicting the time of explosion of a massive star is impossible for obvious reasons. There are several different types of supernovae which have different spectral and photometric evolution, and how exactly these are related to the evolutionary states of the progenitor stars is not currently known. I will describe a novel project which may allow the direct identification of core-collapse supernovae progenitors on pre-explosion images of resolved, nearby galaxies. This project is now possible with the excellent image archives maintained by several facilities and will be enhanced by the new initiatives to create Virtual Observatories, the earliest of which ASTROVIRTEL is already producing results.

Predictors of organizational involvement : a test of the generality of Etzioni's (1961) compliance relations

description: The primary aim of this study was to test the generality of Etzioni' s (1961) compliance relations (between particular kinds of organizational power and involvement) over different ranks of a variety of organizations whose members were relatively free to stay or leave. A secondary aim was to compare organizational power to other predictors of involvement suggested in the literature. Four hundred and sixty-six members of 85 groups were solicited from 27 local business, health, welfare, and educational organizations. In addition, for each group, to provide a check on members' replies to some questions, the researcher and (most often) two administrators and two outsiders familiar with the group provided their own ratings of group-level variables. The organization measures used in the analyses were administrator-reponed organizational power (coercive, remunerative, and normative) and organization size. Group measures included observers' reports of the group's cohesion and its members' self-assertiveness, member-reponed group goals (relational and altruistic), and group size. Individual characteristics included age, sex, education level, plans for future education, time in the organization, opportunity for advancement, opportunities elsewhere, union membership, achievement motivation, personal autonomy, and liking for change. Alienative and moral involvement were confounded but their composite (net commitment) was distinct from calculative involvement Hierarchical regression analyses were carried out with the two kinds of involvement as dependent variables, at both the group and individual levels of analysis. The relevant kind of organizational power was entered first, followed by other organization, group, and individual characteristics. Finally, interactions between each kind of organizational power and members' achievement motivation were investigated. The individual-level analyses were the most infonnative because all appropriate variables were considered. Remunerative power tended to increase calculative involvement among low achievers, and this was secondary only to the overall negative effect of achievement motivation at high levels of total power. Also tending to reduce calculative involvement were high altruistic group goals, a liking for change, age, high normative power exercised over high achievers, small organization size,low personal autonomy, and low coercive power. Net commitment tended to be increased most by a conjunction of low coercive and high normative power, followed by age, opportunities elsewhere, low personal autonomy, opportunity for advancement, small organization size, and high achievement motivation.
Bourgeois morals/public punishment England c.1750s-1860s

description: Violence in the penal system and the changing attitudes to it as a spectacle in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries is the primary subject of this thesis. I begin my story with the public (and usually violent) forms of punishment as they existed in the eighteenth century. I treat them as cultural phenomena which are to be understood as part of a wider context of attitudes to the body and rituals. This chapter acts as the counterpoint to the following chapters where I try to explain why all these public forms of punishment disappear by the 1860s. These chapters cover three main themes. Firstly the influence of labour demands as manifested in the mercantilist period, when criminals are discovered as useful subjects (many are set to work in colonies and houses of correction instead of punishment by death and mutilation), and later how the labour requirements of the industrial revolution (freedom of movement and a reduction in the cost of the poor law by modifying diet and social activities) necessitates an internalisation of morals and habits (via the new prisons and plans for a system of national education) instead of the more negative treatment of crime by public exposure. Secondly the role of the soft/hard dichotomy, whereby the nervous system of women is portrayed as peculiarly delicate and weak in late eighteenth and early nineteenth century medical tracts, a portrayal which is, in turn, used to reinforce the domestic subordination of women. As a result the 'softer' sex are not expected to enjoy spectacles of punishment, which is a contradictory notion as women were as liable to execution or flogging as men. Finally the changes in the attitudes to death and representations of the dead body are reflected in the abolition of public dissections and the gibbet; there is also the fear that public executions (as well as exhibitions of the dead criminal) are perversely attractive to some individuals, which completely undermines their value as a deterrent. These various themes are united by the constant reference to the body: the body as the object of public and violent forms of punishment and changes in the perception of the body as the basis of their demise.

Dynamical Decay of Brane-Antibrane and Dielectric Brane

description: Using D-brane effective field theories, we study dynamical decay of unstable brane systems : (i) a parallel brane-antibrane pair with separation l and (ii) a dielectric brane. In particular we give explicitly the decay width of these unstable systems, and describe how the decay proceeds after the tunnel effect. The decay (i) is analysed by the use of a tachyon effective action on the Dp-Dpbar. A pair annihilation starts by nucleation of a bubble of a tachyon domain wall which represents a throat connecting these branes, and the tunneling decay width is found to be proportional to exp(-l^{p+1} T_{Dp}). We study also the decay leaving topological defects corresponding to lower-dimensional branes, which may be relevant for recent inflationary braneworld scenario. As for the decay (ii), first we observe that Dp-branes generically ``curl up'' in a nontrivial RR field strength. Using this viewpoint, we compute the decay width of the dielectric D2-branes by constructing relevant Euclidean bounce solutions in the shape of a funnel. We also give new solutions in doughnut shape which are involved with nucleation of dielectric branes from nothing.

description: To investigate the effect of a classical environment on a quantum mechanical system we consider two two-level atoms in a free radiation field in the presence of a screen. By assuming that the screen causes continuous ideal measurements on the free radiation field we derive a quantum jump description for the state of the atoms. Our results are consistent with the master equations for dipole interacting atoms, but give more insight in the time evolution of a single system. To illustrate this we derive a necessary and sufficient criterion for interference in a two-atom double-slit experiment and analyse bunching in the statistics of photons emitted in a certain direction.

description: There has been extensive research into road user behavior, although how pedestrians express their anger has yet to be explored. This is important given the high vulnerability of pedestrians and the additional risks that angry people often undertake. The present study developed a tool to measure one’s tendency to engage in aggressive acts while walking: The pedestrian anger expression inventory (PAX). The survey consisted of 37 items adapted from the Driving Anger Expression Inventory as well as a subset of items from the Pedestrian Behavior Questionnaire. Ten items from the Trait Anger Scale (TAS) questionnaire were also used to assess the general anger tendencies of individuals. A total of 475 participants from Tehran provided complete responses to a questionnaire administered via paper and pencil. A Principal Component Analysis showed a 30-item, 3-factor model describing three ways of expressing anger: 1) Anger Expression-In (internalizing anger), 2) Anger Expression-Out (in the form of aggression), and 3) Adaptive/Constructive Expression (dealing with anger in a constructive way). Hierarchical linear regression showed that trait anger was a significant predictor of pedestrian anger expression, above other demographic variables (age and gender). However, age and gender remained significant predictors of pedestrian anger. As age increased, the tendency to become angry while walking decreased. Male pedestrians were also significantly more likely to express their anger aggressively than female pedestrians. In this study, we developed a questionnaire to measure anger expression in pedestrians, highlighting three broad ways pedestrians deal with their anger (internally, externally, or constructively). This questionnaire was used in Iran and therefore, further research is required to validate these tools among different samples and populations.
On the structure of covariant phase observables

description: We study the mathematical structure of covariant phase observables. Such an observable can alternatively be expressed as a phase matrix, as a sequence of unit vectors, as a sequence of phase states, or as an equivalent class of covariant trace-preserving operations. Covariant generalized operator measures are defined by structure matrices which form a W*-algebra with phase matrices as its subset. The properties of the Radon-Nikodym derivatives of phase probability measures are studied.

description: Intersection-related crashes account for approximately 40% of all crashes and tend to be more severe. Red-light running (RLR) crashes are most severe as almost half of these crashes result in injuries and fatalities. To reduce RLR crashes, agencies have been deploying red light cameras (RLCs). The main objective of this study was to evaluate the safety effectiveness of RLCs in the City of Miami Beach, Florida. The full Bayes (FB) approach was conducted based on five treatment intersections with six RLCs and 14 comparison intersections without RLCs. The analysis focused on target crash types, including rear-end, sideswipe, and angle/left-turn/right-turn crashes, and crash severity. The FB analysis indicated a significant sudden drop in all types of target crashes immediately after the installation of RLCs. Compared to the before-period, the after-period experienced: fewer angle/left-turn/right-turn crashes, fewer sideswipe crashes, and more rear-end crashes. The sideswipe and angle/left-turn/right-turn crashes dropped immediately after the installation of RLCs and then continued to increase, but they were still lower than the before- period. The rear-end crashes dropped immediately after the installation of RLCs and then continued to increase, but they increased at a steeper rate. Major and minor approaches AADT, higher speed limit, longer amber time, length of pedestrian crosswalk, and number of driveways within the intersection influence area increased the frequency of total target, PDO, and FI crashes. Intersections with all-red interval more than two seconds, major approach with more than two through lanes, and minor approach with more than one through lane, on the contrary, resulted in a fewer number of the total target, PDO, and FI crashes. The treatment indicator showed that treatment intersections experienced fewer FI, angle/left-turn/right-turn, and sideswipe crashes and more total, PDO, and rear-end crashes compared to the non-treatment intersections. This study provides reliable estimates of the safety effectiveness of RLCs since it accounts for uncertainties in the data, regression-to-the-mean, and spillover effects.
