description: We prove that, for a good meromorphic flat bundle with poles along a divisor with normal crossings, the restriction of the irregularity complex to each natural stratum of this divisor only depends on the formal flat bundle along this stratum. This answers a question raised by J.-B. Teyssier. This version takes into account the published erratum.

description: Our contribution aims kick off a nuanced debate about theories and theorising in higher education research. Drawing on sociological literature that reflects on theories and theorising, we introduce the notion of ‘theory work.’ Theory work emphasises that theories are practical tools that can be used for a variety of purposes. To make different forms of engagement with theories visible, we develop in a first step three conceptual lenses that facilitate a nuanced observation of different forms of engagement with theories in higher education research: the lenses focus on (1) ranges of theories, (2) ways of engaging with theories, and (3) degrees of epistemic autonomy of theory work. In a second step, we operationalise these lenses for two thematic fields: we discuss theory work in research concerned with organisation and governance, and theory work in research on academic careers. Our contribution shows that there are both differences and similarities in theory work across thematic fields with in higher education research. Across these differences and similarities our conceptual lenses reveal a variety of forms of theories and theory work in higher education research. We conclude by discussing several benefits a conceptual toolkit on theory work can have for higher education research more generally.

description: Veränderte Anforderungen in der Versorgungspraxis begründen maßgeblich die Entwicklung von erstausbildenden Pflegestudiengängen in Deutschland. Seit dem Jahr 2004 ist auf der Basis von Modellklauseln an ca. 50 Hochschulen eine große Vielfalt an Studiengängen bezogen auf die strukturelle und curriculare Konzeption entstanden. Mit der Überführung der hochschulischen Erstausbildung in den Regelbetrieb im Entwurf des neuen Berufsgesetzes von 2016 wird eine stärkere Vereinheitlichung erfolgen. Evaluationen der Modellstudiengänge ergeben, dass Absolventen durch das Studium wissenschaftliche Kompetenzen entwickeln und vermehrt Standards und Rituale reflektieren. Studien aus dem angloamerikanischen Raum belegen zudem, dass Patienten von einer steigenden Akademisierungsquote profitieren. Vor diesem Hintergrund gilt es in den nächsten Jahren, den Anteil an hochschulisch qualifizierten Pflegefachpersonen in der direkten Versorgung zu steigern und angemessene Einmündungskonzepte zu entwickeln.

description: A central question in quantum computation is to identify the resources that are responsible for quantum speed-up. Quantum contextuality has been recently shown to be a resource for quantum computation with magic states for odd-prime dimensional qudits and two-dimensional systems with real wavefunctions. The phenomenon of state-independent contextuality poses a priori an obstruction to characterizing the case of regular qubits, the fundamental building block of quantum computation. Here, we establish contextuality of magic states as a necessary resource for a large class of quantum computation schemes on qubits. We illustrate our result with a concrete scheme related to measurement-based quantum computation.

Kinetic Monte Carlo Simulation of Single-Electron Multiple-Trapping Transport in Disordered Media

description: The conventional single-particle Monte Carlo simulation of charge transport in disordered media is based on the truncated density of localized states (DOLS) which benefits from very short time execution. Although this model successfully clarifies the properties of electron transport in moderately disordered media, it overestimates the electron diffusion coefficient for strongly disordered media. The origin of this deviation is discussed in terms of zero-temperature approximation in the truncated DOLS and the ignorance of spatial occupation of localized states. Here, based on the multiple-trapping regime we introduce a modified single-particle kinetic Monte Carlo model that can be used to investigate the electron transport in any disordered media independent from the value of disorder parameter. In the proposed model, instead of using a truncated DOLS we imply the raw DOLS. In addition, we have introduced an occupation index for localized states to consider the effect of spatial occupation of trap sites. The proposed model is justified in a simple cubic lattice of trap sites for broad interval of disorder parameters, Fermi levels, and temperatures.

description: Die derzeitige Personalausstattung zur pflegerischen Versorgung in der Langzeitpflege ist zu gering. Es fehlen Zahlen zum quantitativen und qualitativen Bedarf an zusätzlichem Personal. Um ein wissenschaftlich fundiertes Verfahren entwickeln zu können, das in der Lage ist, ausgehend von einer einrichtungsspezifischen Bewohnerstruktur die Menge und Qualifikation des zur pflegerischen Versorgung erforderlichen Pflegepersonals zu ermitteln, ist ein Qualifikationsmixmodell (QMM) notwendig, das angibt, welches Qualifikationsniveau zur fachgerechten Erbringung von Pflegeinterventionen mindestens vorliegen muss. Ein solches Modell lag bisher nicht vor. Aufgrund fehlender normativer oder empirisch fundierter Zuordnung von Interventionen und Qualifikationsniveaus, wurde für die Konzeption des QMM ein theoretischer Zugang unter Nutzung vorhandener Qualifikationsrahmen, Kompetenzmodelle, rechtlicher Festlegungen, des neuen Begutachtungsinstruments und pflegewissenschaftlicher Studien gewählt. Durch Unterscheidung der Komplexität der Arbeitsanforderungen wurden insgesamt 10 Interventionsklassen - zum Teil mit Unterklassen - gebildet, die jeweils mit einem von fünf Qualifikationsniveaus verknüpft wurden. Das so entstandene QMM ermöglicht die Zuordnung von Qualifikationen zu pflegerelevanten Interventionen als normative Grundlage für die Messung des Personalbedarfs und bietet außerdem eine Orientierung für eine stärker kompetenzorientierte Arbeits- und Verantwortungsverteilung in der stationären Langzeitpflege. Da es strukturkonservativ angelegt ist und sich auf die zum Erarbeitungszeitpunkt aktuellen rechtlichen Festlegungen stützt, handelt es sich um einen Mindeststandard.

Die Evaluation richtet sich auf die Auswirkungen der Vornoten auf die Höhe der Abschlussnoten und das Lernverhalten sowie auf die Einschätzung der Angemessenheit der Abschlussnoten. Methodisch wurde ein Mixed-Methods-Design zugrunde gelegt bestehend aus einer quasi-experimentellen Studie mit Befragungen von Schüler/innen und Lehrer/innen von Vergleichs- und Modellkursen sowie einer qualitativen Studie mit Gruppendiskussionen. Die Studie kommt zu dem Ergebnis, dass die Vornoten zu einer minimalen Verbesserung der Abschlussnoten einzelner, ausschließlich leistungsschwacher Schüler/innen führen. Die Einschätzung der Angemessenheit veränderte sich kaum. Nach wie vor besteht große Unzufriedenheit mit den praktischen Abschlussnoten sowohl aus Sicht der Lernenden als auch der Lehrenden. Beim Lernverhalten zeigten sich eine verstärkte Lernbereitschaft auf der einen und teilweise ein erhöhter Leistungsdruck auf der anderen Seite. Auf der Basis der Untersuchungsergebnisse empfehlen die Autorinnen die regelhafte Einführung der Vornotenanrechnung in die Pflegeausbildung.
title: Approaches to the 'thio-Arbuzov' reaction.
Creators: name: Evans, Graham Robert
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2023

description: This thesis is introduced by a review of the Arbuzov reaction. The new concept of the analogous sulphur 'thio-Arbuzov' reaction is presented. This sulphur reaction should provide an alternative route to sulphoxides and with modification of the starting materials, optically active sulphoxides should result. The Introductory Chapter also describes in some detail the chemistry of this important class of compounds. The 'thio-Arbuzov1 reaction involves the conversion of S(II) esters to S(IV) compounds. The second Chapter examines the preparation and chemistry of sulphenic acid derivatives, with particular emphasis on the sulphenate esters, the starting material of the above reaction. The subsequent Chapters descibe the reaction of the sulphenate esters with organic halides. This has been divided into three categories; the first is soft electrophiles such as alkyl halides, the second hard electrophiles e.g. acyl chlorides and the third soft reactive electrophiles for example sulphenyl chlorides. The sulphenate-sulphenyl chloride reaction was extensively investigated by ¹H and ¹⁹F NMR and mass spectroscopy. During the course of these studies a novel 'ester exchange' reaction has been elucidated. The first stage of this complex reaction is thought to involve thiosulphinate formation. The thiosulphinate is labile and hence was not isolated, instead further reaction to a mixture of disulphides and sulphinate esters resulted. Two control reactions involving the thiosulphinate with i) sulphenate esters and ii) sulphenyl chlorides were then studied. Both gave rise to the same products (disulphide and sulphinate ester); the mechanistic implications are discussed. A brief study of the sulphinic acid derivatives were undertaken, to examine whether the 'thio-Arbuzov' reaction could be extended to S(IV) esters. Interestingly, sulphonyl chlorides were obtained when excess sulphonyl chlorides and sulphinate esters were mixed. A possible mechanism is also proposed for this reaction.

REACH Story of Change: Sustainable management of sedimentation risks in coastal rivers in southwest Bangladesh
Creators: name: REACH
Publisher: name: University of Oxford
Year: 2023

description: Bangladesh’s Delta Plan 2100 identified river sedimentation and associated water-logging as one of Coastal Bangladesh’s main water security issues. 1.3 million people in Coastal Bangladesh have been impacted by severe waterlogging since the early 1990s, restricting key livelihood activities, reducing agricultural yields, and affecting drinking water quality. As part of the REACH programme, a research team from the Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology and the Bangladesh Water Development Board (BWDB) have characterized hydrodynamic processes and sediment transport dynamics in the area, with potential implications for different types of interventions. Recommendations include increasing freshwater flows by restoring upstream river-river and river-floodplain connectivity and reducing “repeated dredging” of the same area.

description: For any $k\geq 1$, we study the distribution of the difference between the number of integers $n\leq x$ with $ω(n)=k$ or $Ω(n)=k$ in two different arithmetic progressions, where $ω(n)$ is the number of distinct prime factors of $n$ and $Ω(n)$ is the number of prime factors of $n$ counted with multiplicity . Under some reasonable assumptions, we show that, if $k$ is odd, the integers with $Ω(n)=k$ have preference for quadratic non-residue classes; and if $k$ is even, such integers have preference for quadratic residue classes. This result confirms a conjecture of Richard Hudson. However, the integers with $ω(n)=k$ always have preference for quadratic residue classes. Moreover, as $k$ increases, the biases become smaller and smaller for both of the two cases.

description: Digital phenotyping has the potential to revolutionize modern psychiatry. It promises improved prevention of mental disorders, more accurate measurements of mental states, and even predictions of psychiatric relapses. However, to fulfill this potential, the relevant stakeholders must accept digital phenotyping. This scoping review will explore the empirical evidence on the acceptability of digital phenotyping in mental health care from different stakeholders’ perspectives (e.g., patients, health care professionals). The scoping review will follow the updated Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) guidelines and will be reported according to the PRISMA-ScR checklist. The research team will search for relevant studies in the following electronic databases: PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Scopus, Ovid (PsycINFO, PsycArticles), ACM Digital Library, IEEE Xplore, and Epistemonikos. The review will include empirical conference proceedings, preprints, and peer-reviewed journal articles published since 2000. Two reviewers will perform title and abstract screening as well as full-text screening. Additional studies will be identified through forward and backward searches of the included studies’ reference lists. Data will be extracted and presented in graphical and tabular forms. The research questions are answered through a narrative synthesis approach.
Dreams and realities: E.J. Brady and Mallacoota
Creators: name: Mirams, Sarah Jane
Publisher: name: Monash University

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Edwin James Brady (1869-1952) is best known as a minor figure from the political and literary world of the 1890s and the author of Australia Unlimited, a book and a phrase that has come to represent the development ethos that characterised Australia in the inter-war years. Brady has been described as a writer who celebrated nature, but also encouraged the unsustainable exploitation of Australia’s natural resources. This biographical study, informed by environmental history, attempts to ‘flesh out’ the man behind ‘Australia Unlimited’ by exploring the relationship he had with the place he came to regard as his own domain, the small coastal settlement of Mallacoota, in far East Gippsland. This study traces Brady’s journey to Mallacoota, explores what expectations he had of this place and whether they were realised. I consider how the physical environment of Mallacoota and far East Gippsland helped shape the human experience of Brady and the local community, and how humans shaped and changed this environment over time. Brady came to see in Mallacoota’s wild beauty a place of poetic inspiration and solitude and also a source of natural wealth that should be closely populated and developed for the good of the nation. His dream was to create, in far East Gippsland, a model for a democratic and prosperous Australia. Brady was inspired by the social idealism of the 1890s, the progressive agenda of post Federation Australia, his commitment to socialism, as well as individual needs and desires. His visions for Mallacoota were formed and shaped by national and international events such as war, depression and technological change. In Mallacoota Brady wrote, farmed, ran a tourist business, helped establish a utopian socialist settlement and acted as an advocate for the region. This became his home for forty years and as such this study also considers his personal domestic life, and relationships between people living in this small remote community. This study, through the central figures of Mallacoota and Brady, therefore draws together national, local and domestic themes. Ultimately Brady failed to transform Mallacoota into a closely populated, economically diverse rural region through immigration and the exploitation of its natural resources. His principal legacy was rather to help shape the idea of Mallacoota as a tourist retreat for visitors, who wanted to experience the solitude and natural beauty that originally drew him there.

description: We report measurements of the infrared optical response of thin black phosphorus under field-effect modulation. We interpret the observed spectral changes as a combination of an ambipolar Burstein-Moss (BM) shift of the absorption edge due to band-filling under gate control, and a quantum confined Franz-Keldysh (QCFK) effect, phenomena which have been proposed theoretically to occur for black phosphorus under an applied electric field. Distinct optical responses are observed depending on the flake thickness and starting carrier concentration. Transmission extinction modulation amplitudes of more than two percent are observed, suggesting the potential for use of black phosphorus as an active material in mid-infrared optoelectronic modulator applications.

description: River-valley morphology preserves information on tectonic and climatic conditions that shape landscapes. Observations suggest that river discharge and valley-wall lithology are the main controls on valley width. Yet, current models based on these observations fail to explain the full range of cross-sectional valley shapes in nature, suggesting hitherto unquantified controls on valley width. In particular, current models cannot explain the existence of paired terrace sequences that form under cyclic climate forcing. Paired river terraces are staircases of abandoned floodplains on both valley sides, and hence preserve past valley widths. Their formation requires alternating phases of predominantly river incision and predominantly lateral planation, plus progressive valley narrowing. While cyclic Quaternary climate changes can explain shifts between incision and lateral erosion, the driving mechanism of valley narrowing is unknown. Here, we extract valley geometries from climatically formed, alluvial river-terrace sequences and show that across our dataset, the total cumulative terrace height (here: total valley height) explains 90%–99% of the variance in valley width at the terrace sites. This finding suggests that valley height, or a parameter that scales linearly with valley height, controls valley width in addition to river discharge and lithology. To explain this valley-width-height relationship, we reformulate existing valley-width models and suggest that, when adjusting to new boundary conditions, alluvial valleys evolve to a width at which sediment removal from valley walls matches lateral sediment supply from hillslope erosion. Such a hillslope-channel coupling is not captured in current valley-evolution models. Our model can explain the existence of paired terrace sequences under cyclic climate forcing and relates valley width to measurable field parameters. Therefore, it facilitates the reconstruction of past climatic and tectonic conditions from valley topography.

description: This thesis is an elaboration of recent results on the holographic re-construction of metric-like interactions in higher-spin gauge theories on anti-de Sitter space (AdS), employing their conjectured holographic duality with free conformal field theories (CFTs). After reviewing the general approach and establishing the necessary intermediate results, we extract explicit expressions for the complete cubic action on AdS$_{d+1}$ and the quartic self-interaction of the scalar on AdS$_4$ for the type A minimal bosonic higher-spin theory from the three- and four- point correlation functions of single-trace operators in the free scalar $O\left(N\right)$ vector model. For this purpose tools were developed to evaluate tree-level three-point Witten diagrams involving fields of arbitrary integer spin and the conformal partial wave expansions of tree-level four-point Witten diagrams, which are underpinned by the ambient space formulation of AdS space and CFT. We also discuss the implications of the holographic duality on the locality properties of interactions in higher-spin gauge theories.

description: In the paper, we make use of Manton's analytical method to investigate the force between kink and the anti-kink with large distance in $1+1$ dimensional field theory. The related potential has infinite order corrections of exponential pattern, and coefficients for each order are determined. These coefficients can also be obtained by solving the equation of the fluctuation around the vacuum. At the lowest order, the kink lattice represents the Toda lattice. With higher order correction terms, the kink lattice can represent one kind of the generic Toda lattice. With only two sites, the kink lattice is classically integrable. If the number of sites of the lattice is larger than two, the kink lattice is not integrable but a near integrable system. We take use of the Flaschka's variables to study the Lax pair of the kink lattice. These Flaschka's variables have interesting algebraic relations and the non-integrability can be manifested. We also discussed the higher Hamiltonians for the deformed open Toda lattice, which has a similar result as the ordinary deformed Toda.
The Indonesian press in the era of keterbukaan : a force for democratisation?
Creators: name: Hanazaki, Yasuo
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: After developing through the stages of being a tool of the nationalist cause and being tied to political parties, the evolution of Indonesian press was stalled by the political power of the New Order. As the nation's economy was boosted by the New Order, improvements in living standards and education expanded newspaper readership, and newspapers increased their financial status and broke away from dependence on political parties. Instead, Indonesian newspapers were put under restrictive control by the New Order Government. This stalled the further evolution of the press into a fully fledged news industry, on the path trodden by the Western press. The mechanism which stalled the evolution of the press was government press control through the Press Publishing Business Licence (SIUPP). Under this system, the journalistic performance of the Indonesian press declined. On the other hand, Indonesia's economic development has activated investment in the media from other fields of industry. This new phenomenon suggests a possibility: media owners may oppose the government's restrictions on the media industry in order to seek greater opportunities for business. Meanwhile, keterbukaan or the so-called "openness policy" in the early 1990s vitalised Indonesian journalism. Keterbukaan was a product of gradually proceeding structural change inside the regime, and, in a broader sense, it was a fault line caused by regime fatigue and newly emerging civil energy. Riding the wave of keterbukaan, some unprecedented scenes occurred during this period, such as the birth and miraculous growth of a weekly political tabloid. The press banning in 1994 and subsequent developments brought about several important changes in Indonesian politics and society. The banning was deplored by certain armed forces leaders. Moreover, the banned weekly, Tempo, was encouraged by some army members to file a lawsuit against the Information Minister. After the banning, despite a mood of great fear, a few journalists came to take a clearer stance against the press policy of the regime, and established a new journalists' association, which opposed the Information Department and the Indonesian Journalists' Association (PWI). Their cause was supported more strongly than ever by other elements in society. In 1995, two courts of law judged that the revocation of Tempo's SIUPP was unlawful and ordered the Information Minister to return the licence to the magazine. lndonesia's economic growth and experience of keterbukaan have started to change the consciousness of members of Indonesian civil society. Then they have helped the press resume its stalled evolution towards a fully fledged commercial news industry and urged the press to commit itself to the nation's democratisation as well, unshackling the press from political bondage.

description: In this note, we derive a new logarithmic Sobolev inequality for the heat kernel on the Heisenberg group. The proof is inspired from the historical method of Leonard Gross with the Central Limit Theorem for a random walk. Here the non commutative nature of the increments produces a new gradient which naturally involves a Brownian bridge on the Heisenberg group. This new inequality contains the optimal logarithmic Sobolev inequality for the Gaussian distribution in two dimensions. We compare this new inequality with the sub-elliptic logarithmic Sobolev inequality of Hong-Quan Li and with the more recent inequality of Fabrice Baudoin and Nicola Garofalo obtained using a generalized curvature criterion. Finally, we extend this inequality to the case of homogeneous Carnot groups of rank two.

description: Completely open systems can exchange heat, work, and matter with the environment. While energy, volume, and number of particles fluctuate under completely open conditions, the equilibrium states of the system, if they exist, can be specified using the temperature, pressure, and chemical potential as control parameters. The unconstrained ensemble is the statistical ensemble describing completely open systems and the replica energy is the appropriate free energy for these control parameters from which the thermodynamics must be derived. It turns out that macroscopic systems with short-range interactions cannot attain equilibrium configurations in the unconstrained ensemble, since temperature, pressure, and chemical potential cannot be taken as a set of independent variables in this case. In contrast, we show that systems with long-range interactions can reach states of thermodynamic equilibrium in the unconstrained ensemble. To illustrate this fact, we consider a modification of the Thirring model and compare the unconstrained ensemble with the canonical and grand canonical ones: the more the ensemble is constrained by fixing the volume or number of particles, the larger the space of parameters defining the equilibrium configurations.

description: The explicit density (rho) dependence in the coupling coefficients of the non-relativistic nuclear energy-density functional (EDF) encodes effects of three-nucleon forces and dynamical correlations. The necessity for a coupling coefficient in the form of a small fractional power of rho is empirical and the power often chosen arbitrarily. Consequently, precision-oriented parameterisations risk overfitting and loss of predictive power. Observing that the Fermi momentum kF~rho^1/3 is a key variable in Fermi systems, we examine if a power hierarchy in kF can be inferred from the properties of homogeneous matter in a domain of densities which is relevant for nuclear structure and neutron stars. For later applications we want to determine an EDF that is of good quality but not overtrained. We fit polynomial and other functions of rho^1/3 to existing microscopic calculations of the energy of symmetric and pure neutron matter and analyze the fits. We select a form and parameter set which we found robust and examine the parameters' naturalness and the resulting extrapolations. A statistical analysis confirms that low-order terms like rho^1/3 and rho^2/3 are the most relevant ones. It also hints at a different power hierarchy for symmetric vs. pure neutron matter, supporting the need for more than one rho^a terms in non-relativistic EDFs. The EDF we propose accommodates adopted properties of nuclear matter near saturation. Importantly, its extrapolation to dilute or asymmetric matter reproduces a range of existing microscopic results, to which it has not been fitted. It also predicts neutron-star properties consistent with observations. The coefficients display naturalness. Once determined for homogeneous matter, EDFs of the present form can be mapped onto Skyrme-type ones for use in nuclei. The statistical analysis can be extended to higher orders and for different ab initio calculations.

Chronicles of progress : the illustrated newspapers of colonial Australia, 1853-1896

description: This thesis is a study of the imagery in the illustrated newspapers of colonial Australia over the period of their publication, 1853-1896. The distinguishing feature of these papers was that the illustrations were printed from engraved woodblocks. The thesis is pioneering in the sense that whilst historians have regularly used images from the papers to illustrate books on a wide variety of topics, no one has researched the illustrated newspapers as a primary source in their own right. This has led to the thesis also being a study of the printing technology that was associated with producing the papers and how this influenced the range of imagery they contain. It has also involved researching the evolution of illustrated newspapers in colonial Australia. It will be argued that the key to success with the publication of illustrated newspapers in colonial Australia was to change from weekly issue to monthly issue in the early 1860s. Monthly issue was more suited to the demographics of colonial Australia as well as for sending papers to Great Britain by the monthly Royal Mail service. With regard to printing technology, the invention of photographic processes had considerable impact on the production of imagery in the illustrated newspapers. It lead to both the producers and readers of illustrated newspapers gradually reconsidering their ideas about the authenticity of news illustration. This occurred most obviously in terms of the photographer challenging the illustrator with regard to on-the-spot recording of news at a visual level. It also occurred more subtly in terms of photomechanical image reproduction challenging the craft of wood engraving in the faithful reproduction of images regardless of the original medium in which they were produced: photographic print, sketch or oil painting. The argument, in this context, is that in the same way photography confronted art in the nineteenth century in terms of truth to nature, so too did the development of photomechanical processes confront wood engraving in relation to image reproduction. Finally, a content analysis methodology has been used to approach in a systematic way the image subject matter of the papers. Illustrations were then grouped into three brackets: MATERIAL PROGRESS which included imagery of buildings, streetscapes, panoramas, manufacturing, exhibitions and maritime affairs; THE CULTURE OF PROGRESS which was concerned with imagery depicting military affairs, civic occasions, the arts and leisure; and PROGRESS AND THE FRONTIER which comprised imagery relating to the landscape, mining, the wool industry, Aborigines and natural history. The changes in the subject matter of these various categories of imagery reflected very closely the progress of Australia in the second half of the provided their readers with the visual representation of progress in colonial Australia; indeed, they were Chronicles of Progress.

description: Transverse-momentum-dependent (TMD) gluon distributions have different operator definitions, depending on the process under consideration. We study that aspect of TMD factorization in the small-x limit, for the various unpolarized TMD gluon distributions encountered in the literature. To do this, we consider di-jet production in hadronic collisions, since this process allows to be exhaustive with respect to the possible operator definitions, and is suitable to be investigated at small x. Indeed, for forward and nearly back-to-back jets, one can apply both the TMD factorization and Color Glass Condensate (CGC) approaches to compute the di-jet cross-section, and compare the results. Doing so, we show that both descriptions coincide, and we show how to express the various TMD gluon distributions in terms of CGC correlators of Wilson lines, while keeping Nc finite. We then proceed to evaluate them by solving the JIMWLK equation numerically. We obtain that at large transverse momentum, the process dependence essentially disappears, while at small transverse momentum, non-linear saturation effects impact the various TMD gluon distributions in very different ways. We notice the presence of a geometric scaling regime for all the TMD gluon distributions studied: the "dipole" one, the Weizsäcker-Williams one, and the six others involved in forward di-jet production.

Life in between The post-migration narratives of Indonesian returning domestic workers

description: This study examines the experiences of Indonesian returning domestic workers post-migration. It offers an analysis of in-depth interviews with twenty returned migrant women gathered during nine months of fieldwork in Pontianak and Pemangkat, West Kalimantan, Indonesia. It considers the links between migration, the changes in women’s perspectives regarding family, gender roles and their understanding of themselves, and their surroundings. In the thesis study, I found migration experiences significantly changed how women negotiated their gender roles in connection with their families and communities. While economic drivers were significant in migration, women often indicated that a desire to alter or reshape their social situation was an important aspect of their decision-making. While migration experiences were often empowering, women also considered that they felt caught between two worlds on return; between Malaysia and Indonesia; between life prior to migration and post-migration; between existing social expectations and their own aspirations. They experienced challenges negotiating what their parents or their partners expect of them. The case of these women is explicated to show that gendered labour migration leads to changes in women’s socio-economic and socio-cultural environment of personal and family life. This thesis contributes to existing work on gendered migration by close attention to the complex factors that shape women’s decisions to migrate for employment; their experiences during the migration process; and the social and cultural challenges and changes that they experience on return.
