description: This study presents a deep learning-based approach to seismic velocity inversion problem, focusing on both noisy and noiseless training datasets of varying sizes. Our Seismic Velocity Inversion Network (SVInvNet) introduces a novel architecture that contains a multi-connection encoder-decoder structure enhanced with dense blocks. This design is specifically tuned to effectively process time series data, which is essential for addressing the challenges of non-linear seismic velocity inversion. For training and testing, we created diverse seismic velocity models, including multi-layered, faulty, and salt dome categories. We also investigated how different kinds of ambient noise, both coherent and stochastic, and the size of the training dataset affect learning outcomes. SVInvNet is trained on datasets ranging from 750 to 6,000 samples and is tested using a large benchmark dataset of 12,000 samples. Despite its fewer parameters compared to the baseline model, SVInvNet achieves superior performance with this dataset. The performance of SVInvNet was further evaluated using the OpenFWI dataset and Marmousi-derived velocity models. The comparative analysis clearly reveals the effectiveness of the proposed model.

description: A general approach to the problem of positioning by means of pulsars or other pulsating sources located at infinity is described. The counting of the pulses for a set of different sources whose positions in the sky and periods are assumed to be known, is used to provide null emission, or light, coordinates for the receiver. The measurement of the proper time intervals between successive arrivals of the signals from the various sources is used to give the final localization of the receiver, within an accuracy controlled by the precision of the onboard clock. The deviation from the flat case is discussed, separately considering the different possible causes: local gravitational potential, finiteness of the distance of the source, proper motion of the source, period decay, proper acceleration due to non-gravitational forces. Calculations turn out to be simple and the result is highly positive. The method can also be applied to a constellation of satellites orbiting the Earth.

title: The identity trajectories of older academics: workplace affordances and individual subjectivities
Creators: name: Iwaniec-Thompson, Malgorzata
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2023

description: The changing landscape of the Higher Education sector impacts on academics’ identity.
This ethnographic thesis sets out to understand the identity development of older academics (aged 50 and over) as they engage in their everyday practice and negotiate their participation in such dynamic practice. Whilst recent trends and future projections indicate a growing number of older academics in the workplace, empirical research considering their identity development is scarce, despite a growth of literature conceptualising the workplace as a context in which academics’ identity is constructed and developed. 

An ethnographic approach is employed and involved 11 participants from three faculties at a distance learning university. The data was conducted at II phases and included three interviews and at least two observations with each participant. Thematic analysis was used to analyse the data. 

This study is drawing on two theoretical frameworks, Wenger’s communities of practice and Billett’s co-participation. First, the thesis explores tensions between the different identities assumed and suggests six identity trajectories that constitute the participation of academics in the landscape of communities of practice. The study suggests that through Wenger’s modes of identification: engagement, imagination and alignment, older academics' identities come to reflect the changing landscape of their practice in which they participate and exercise their subjectivities, and which constitute their dynamic identity trajectories. 

Second, this thesis explores the interconnected relationships between the affordances of the landscape of practice (factors which enable or constrain practice) and individual subjectivities (agency) and how these dynamics shape academics’ identity development and re-construction at work. This study explores agency enactment interrelated with five affordances: academic freedom, recognition, collaborative practice, time and values and motivations. 

This study provided valuable theoretical implications for broadening the concept of the COP to consider three new dimensions of modes of identification: unengagement, unalignment and unimagination viewed as a continuum, to capture the complexity and a changing nature of older academics’ identity trajectories.

Coloniality and the Courtroom: Understanding Pre-trial Judicial Decision Making in Brazil
Creators: name: Khan, Omar
Publisher: name: University of Westminster
Year: 2022

description: This thesis focuses on judicial decision making during custody hearings in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The impetus for the study is that while national and international protocols mandate the use of pre-trial detention only as a last resort, judges continue to detain people pre-trial in large numbers. Custody hearings were introduced in 2015, but the initiative has not produced the reduction in pre-trial detention that was hoped. This study aims to understand what informs judicial decision making at this stage. The research is approached through a decolonial lens to foreground legacies of colonialism, overlooked in mainstream criminological scholarship. This is an interview-based study, where key court actors (judges, prosecutors, and public defenders) and subject matter specialists were asked about influences on judicial decision making. Interview data is complemented by non-participatory observation of custody hearings. The research responds directly to Aliverti et al.'s (2021) call to ‘decolonize the criminal question’ by exposing and explaining how colonialism informs criminal justice practices. Answering the call in relation to judicial decision making, findings provide evidence that colonial-era assumptions, dynamics, and hierarchies were evident in the practice of custody hearings and continue to inform judges’ decisions, thus demonstrating the coloniality of justice. This study is significant for the new empirical data presented and theoretical innovation is also offered via the introduction of the ‘anticitizen’. The concept builds on Souza’s (2007) ‘subcitizen’ to account for the active pursuit of dangerous Others by judges casting themselves as crime fighters in a modern moral crusade. The findings point to the limited utility of human rights discourse – the normative approach to influencing judicial decision making around pre-trial detention – as a plurality of conceptualisations compete for dominance. This study has important implications for all actors aiming to reduce pre-trial detention in Brazil because unless underpinning colonial logics are addressed, every innovation risks becoming the next lei para inglês ver (law [just] for the English to see).

description: We determine numerically the ground state of the two-dimensional, fully polarized electron gas within the Hartree-Fock approximation without imposing any particular symmetries on the solutions. At low electronic densities, the Wigner crystal solution is stable, but for higher densities ($r_s$ less than $\sim 2.7$) we obtain a ground state of different symmetry: the charge density forms a triangular lattice with about 11% more sites than electrons. We prove analytically that this conducting state with broken translational symmetry has lower energy than the uniform Fermi gas state in the high density region giving rise to a metal to insulator transition.

Ignoble robbers : bandits and pirates in the Roman world
Creators: name: Reardon, GD
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: This thesis begins with an examination of the Roman definition of banditry and piracy in the law codes. The close association between war and banditry, despite the formal importance of the iustum bellum, is revealed by the descriptions and terminology of the surviving literary authorities. Piracy is often referred to as being 'maritime banditry', since it was regarded as differing little from banditry, except that it occurred on the ocean. The position of bandits and pirates in the criminal 'ranks' was the lowest, and thus to the Roman sources, latro was a strong term of abuse associated with great dishonour. The unpredictable tactics of bandits and pirates also prompted the attitude that they were akin to a force of nature, such as a storm, and were thus an unpreventable occurrence. The second chapter discusses Hobsbawm's theories of social banditry and their applicability to the bandits and pirates of the Roman period. An examination reveals that 'social bandits' were not an ancient phenomenon, and that there was no perception of them as such, and suggests that local populations did not regard them as 'Robin Hoods'. Local support for bandits and pirates seems to have been limited mainly to a smaller group composed of their 'partners in crime', who harboured them and received stolen goods. Those who became bandits and pirates, for example deserters and shepherds, are often cited as being driven to banditry for reasons of poverty, and their motivation was to support themselves. An analysis in chapter threee of the activities of the Bagaudae in the late empire reveals them to be bandits rather than rebellious peasants. The attitude of abhorrence towards these criminals is seen in the harsh punishment of their acts and the popular reaction to their deaths, as detailed in chapter four. The fact that a man was considered a bandit was seen as a justification for his death. Retribution through capital punishment could be carried out instantly, or in a number of ways after interrogation and torture, such as beheading or crucifixion. Infamous bandits' deaths played a further role as entertainment for the crowds. The placing of such prisoners in triumphal processions also testifies to the attraction for seeing these prisoners in a humiliated position. Finally, a combination of the factors mentioned above and the value of personal gloria and triumphs in the Roman ethos strongly influenced the response to policing banditry and piracy, as seen in an analysis of a number of Roman laws, battles in the provinces and wars against bandits and pirates. The evidence from the empire suggests that attitudes had not changed though methods of policing had improved.

description: In the context of quark (as for lepton) mixing, we introduce the concept of the matrix of unitarity triangle angles $Φ$, emphasising that it carries equivalent information to the complex mixing matrix $V$ itself. The angle matrix $Φ$ has the added advantage, with respect to $V$, of being both basis-and phase-convention independent and consequently observable (indeed several $Φ$-matrix entries, eg. $Φ_{cs}=α$, $Φ_{us}=β$ etc. are already long-studied as directly measurable/measured in $B$-physics experiments). We give complete translation formulae between the mixing-matrix and angle-matrix representations. We go on to consider briefly the present state of the experimental data on the full angle matrix and some of the prospects for the future, with reference to both the quark and lepton cases.

Suburban consolidation : the future of the Australian dream?
Creators: name: Richardson, MC
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: It has become the conventional wisdom in planning that the Australian dream of a detached house on a large block is no longer an appropriate form of development to cater for the future housing and lifestyle needs of the urban population. For social, economic and environmental reasons, \urban consolidation\" is promoted as a way of achieving a more compact accessible and sustainable suburban form. Consolidation aims to achieve improvements m the quality price efficiency and range of housing by: ‚Äö reducing urban sprawl; ‚Äö increasing the efficiency of infrastructure provision; ‚Äö making housing more affordable; ‚Äö providing housing diversity; ‚Äö improving the design of residential environments. In addressing these issues urban consolidation policy focuses on the density and form of suburban housing. These are the central issues for discussion in this project. The project sets out to analyse the role and meaning of the Australian suburban form and in that context to investigate how policies of urban consolidation might be implemented to produce real improvements in the residential environment. Space is the central issue. It is why suburbia exists and consolidation is promoted. Little research has been conducted on the changing role of space in the suburbs. Unless we understand the role of private suburban space urban consolidation may provide simplistic and impractical solutions. The following assertions arise from the analysis: ‚Äö There is an intimate relationship - etween the function of space on the suburban block and the culture and lifestyle of suburbia. ‚Äö The predominant forms of altemativ~ housing currently being developed offer few of the advantages of the traditional suburban form. ‚Äö The methods used in planning practi:e which dictate the form of residential space do not lead to good design in residential development. The main conclusion is that: ‚Äö The resultant forms of consolidated housing are a poor compromise which lose the advantages of suburbia without substantially delivering any of the supposed benefits of urban consolidation. Given the pressing need for a new approach to suburban planning it is necessary to question what exactly is being done to achieve change in the outcomes of suburban development. Are the policies now being pursued 3ufficient to resolve the suburban problem? Or do they represent a form of planning compromise which creates more problems than it solves? Most importantly alternative approaches are sought which might produce modem suburban environments that satisfy the Australian dream"
Soft gluons and superleading logarithms in QCD

description: After a brief introduction to the physics of soft gluons in QCD we present a surprising prediction. Dijet production in hadron-hadron collisions provides the paradigm, i.e. h_1 +h_2 \to jj+X. In particular, we look at the case where there is a restriction placed on the emission of any further jets in the region in between the primary (highest p_T) dijets. Logarithms in the ratio of the jet scale to the veto scale can be summed to all orders in the strong coupling. Surprisingly, factorization of collinear emissions fails at scales above the veto scale and triggers the appearance of double logarithms in the hard sub-process. The effect appears first at fourth order relative to the leading order prediction and is subleading in the number of colours.

description: UV-transmitting (UVT) acrylic is a commonly used light-propagating material in neutrino and dark matter detectors as it has low intrinsic radioactivity and exhibits low absorption in the detectors' light producing regions, from 350 nm to 500 nm. Degradation of optical transmittance in this region lowers light yields in the detector, which can affect energy reconstruction, resolution, and experimental sensitivities. We examine transmittance loss as a result of short- and long-term UV exposure for a variety of UVT acrylic samples from a number of acrylic manufacturers. Significant degradation peaking at 343 nm was observed in some UVT acrylics with as little as three hours of direct sunlight, while others exhibited softer degradation peaking at 310 nm over many days of exposure to sunlight. Based on their measured degradation results, safe time limits for indoor and outdoor UV exposure of UVT acrylic are formulated.

description: Two matrix product states (MPS) are in the same phase in the presence of symmetries if they can be transformed into one another via symmetric short-depth circuits. We consider how symmetry-preserving measurements with feedforward alter the phase classification of MPS in the presence of global on-site symmetries. We demonstrate that, for all finite abelian symmetries, any two symmetric MPS belong to the same phase. We give an explicit protocol that achieves a transformation between any two phases and that uses only a depth-two symmetric circuit, two rounds of symmetric measurements, and a constant number of auxiliary systems per site. In the case of non-abelian symmetries, symmetry protection prevents one from deterministically transforming symmetry-protected topological (SPT) states to product states directly via measurements, thereby complicating the analysis. Nonetheless, we provide protocols that allow for asymptotically deterministic transformations between the trivial phase and certain SPT phases.

Crustal seismology
Creators: name: Richardson, R. G.
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: A reversed seismic profile has been recorded across northern Tasmania using mine blasts as the western source and several marine blasts as the eastern source. The initial west to east profile was recorded using a 24-channel exploration seismograph which was adapted for crustal studies by the construction of magnetic recording and timing systems to allow digital frequency filtering and stacking of the data as well as correction for undesirable instrument characteristics. During the profile reversal the 24-channel system was used in conjunction with five 3-channel systems designed using parameters determined from the initial profile. Plots of the logarithm of the instantaneous seismic \energy\" incident at a recording site were confirmed as a reliable indicator of arrival times. The Tasmanian crust has an average P1 velocity of 5.86 km/sec and overlies a mantle with an average Pn velocity of 7.95 km/sec. A combination of near vertical-incidence and wide-angle reflection data shows three crustal layers the upper layer being consistent with the granitic and Precambrian rocks near the sources. This thin crust is underlain by a layered mantle. Strong reflections from the Mohorovicic discontinuity on near vertical-incidence recordings correlate with wide-angle reflection arrivals and indicate a crustal thickness varying from 22.3 kilometres to 27.4 kilometres. An asymmetric depression four kilometres below the average level of the Moho is the expression of a major fracture zone between northeast and northwest Tasmania. Arrivals from the mine blasts recorded at the fixed stations of the Tasmania University Seismic Net indicate a Q value for the crust between 114 and 328 corresponding to absorption coefficients between 15.0 x 10-3/km and 5.2 x 10-3/km. Arrivals from these mine blasts recorded along the profile have arrival amplitudes in the first five seconds that are expressed by A= 4.6 x 10-5C0 ¬¨‚àë6˜ívÆ- 1 exp(-7.3 x 10- 3˜ívÆ) m/sec where C is the charge weight in kilograms and ˜ívÆ is the source seismometer distance in kilometres. Arrival amplitudes from the marine shots are given by A= 3.3 x 10-3C0¬¨‚àë33˜ívÆ-1exp(-7.3 x 10- 3˜ívÆ) m/sec and within the charge range used are at least 17 times more efficient than the mine blasts. 1he lower exponent of C in the latter case results from the use of blow-out to reduce bubble-pulse effects from the marine shots."

This phase is close in energy to the known low-temperature structure and becomes the stabler phase above 320 K, thanks to a larger vibrational entropy associated with AlH4 rotational modes. The structural similarity of gamma-NaAlH4 to alpha-Na3AlH6 suggests it acts as a key intermediate during hydrogen release. Findings are consistent with recent experiments recording an unknown phase during dehydrogenation.

As an example, we construct noncommutative deformations of all two-dimensional dilaton gravity models thus overcoming some difficulties of earlier approaches. One of such models appears to be integrable. We find all classical solutions of this model and discuss their properties.

description: It has long been a primary objective of cosmology to understand the apparent isotropy in our universe and to provide a mathematical formulation for its evolution. A school of thought for its explanation is quiescent cosmology, which already possesses a mathematical framework, namely the definition of an Isotropic Singularity, but only for the initial state of the universe. A complementary framework is necessary in order to also describe possible final states of the universe. Our new definitions of an Anisotropic Future Endless Universe and an Anisotropic Future Singularity, whose structure and properties differ significantly from those of the Isotropic Singularity, offer a promising realisation for this framework. The combination of the three definitions together may then provide the first complete formalisation of the quiescent cosmology concept.

For chordal graphs, we show that $\operatorname{J}_{t}$ has a linear resolution iff the tree is $t$-gap-free, and that this is equivalent to having linear quotients. We then show that if $G$ is any gap-free and $t$-claw-free graph, then $\operatorname{J}_{t}(G)$ has linear quotients and, hence, linear resolution.

description: Developing countriesâ€™ consumption of high-value agricultural products, including animalsourced foods, is anticipated to grow rapidly in the coming decades, fuelled by population growth, gains in real per capita income, and urbanization. Given that a large share of rural households in such countries keep some animals, a question arises as to whether the expanding market for animal protein represents a business opportunity for small-scale livestock producers. If consumers are anticipated to demand high-quality, highly-processed food products and do their shopping in supermarkets, there will be few opportunities for small-scale producers, who typically have insufficient human and financial capacity to meet that type of demand. Conversely, should consumers demand relatively low-quality and low-processed food products, then the growing market for animal-sourced foods will represent a major business opportunity for small-scale livestock producers. Available datasets and projections, however, while providing information on current and projected quantity of the different livestock products consumed at the commodity level, do not give details of preferred retail forms, outlets used and the desired safety and quality attributes. This paper presents the results of a rapid consumer survey undertaken by the Tanzanian Ministry of Livestock and Fisheries Development in collaboration with the World Bank-FAO-ILRI Livestock Data Innovation in Africa Project in Tanzania. The survey aimed at identifying preferred quality and safety attributes, retail forms and retail outlets for major livestock products and by type of consumers. Results of the survey, combined with nationally representative household datasets, allows describing both the quantitative and qualitative dimensions of the coming market for animal-sourced foods, which is anticipated to provide major business opportunities for smallscale livestock producers in the medium and short term.

description: We study the lensing phenomena of the strong gravity regime of five-dimensional charged, equally rotating black holes with a cosmological constant, familiarly known as the Cveti\v c-Lü-Pope black holes. These black holes are characterized by three observable parameters, the mass $M$, the charge $Q$ and the angular momentum $J$, in addition to the cosmological constant. We investigate the strong gravitational lensing observables, mainly the photon sphere radius, the minimum impact parameter, the deflection angle, the angular size, and the magnification of the relativistic images. We model the $M87$ and $SgrA^*$ for these observables. We also focus on the relativistic time delay effect in the strong-field regime of gravity and the impact of the observable on it. The analytical expressions for the observables of the relativistic images with vanishing angular momentum ($j=0$) are discussed in some detail. We shed a light on the gravitational time delay effect by incorporating the lensing observables. The gravitational time delay has a direct consequence on the photon sphere radius and hence on the quasinormal modes.

description: Achieving high strength-ductility synergy in hard-to-deform high-alloyed Mg-Gd-Y-Zn-Zr alloys by rolling remains a great challenge. In this work, a Mg-8.2Gd-3.8Y-1.0Zn-0.4Zr (wt.%) alloy sheet possessing a high yield strength (YS) of ∼385 MPa, ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of ∼420 MPa and elongation of ∼19% was achieved via a single-pass hard-plate rolling (HPR) process. The high YS is mainly from amounts of submicron FGs and strong interactions between densely distributed γ′ precipitates and pyramidal dislocations in CGs. The activation of multiple slip systems, HDI-hardening effect, and crack suppression effect from γ′ particles, endow the excellent ductility. The hard-to-deform WE94 alloy sheet exhibiting a superior strength-ductility synergy has been prepared by a single-pass HPR process. The bimodal grain structure containing substantial ultrafine grains coupling with inhomogeneously-distributed nano-scale precipitates accounts for the superior mechanical properties.

The Waler horse : a unique Australian
Creators: name: Robinson, PE
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: The first horses, Cape Colony Barbs, arrived on the continent of Australia with the first fleet in 1788. These were to be the foundation stock from which the Australian horse, the Waler, would develop. Australians called these horses 'stock horses'. When the remount trade began, supplying horses to the British army in India, the name 'waler' was coined to describe these tough, durable horses from the colony of New South Wales. Even after horse breeding for export began in earnest in other parts of Australia, the name 'waler' remained.

description: A study in patients with CHRLC revealed a predominance of anxiety-phobic disorders and depression. Its manifestations vary from absence in the mild course of the disease to subclinical forms in the course of moderate severity, and depressive states that are more severe are also determined. Research results prove the need for psychological assistance to patients with CHRLC, adapted to the severity of the clinical course of lip pathology.

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Energetic young pulsars and expanding blast waves (supernova remnants, SNRs) are the most visible remains after massive stars, ending their lives, explode in core-collapse supernovae. The Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope has unveiled a radio quiet pulsar located near the center of the compact synchrotron nebula inside the supernova remnant CTA 1. The pulsar, discovered through its gamma-ray pulsations, has a period of 316.86 ms, a period derivative of 3.614 x 10-13 s s-1 . Its characteristic age of 104 years is comparable to that estimated for the SNR. It is conjectured that most unidentified Galactic gamma ray sources associated with star-forming regions and SNRs are such young pulsars.

NPR - CALCULATING THE DISCOUNT FOR INTRA FAMILY SALE OF ASSETS
Creators: name: Baker, John R.
Publisher: name: Unknown
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Farm Management
subject: Succession
subject: Discount
subject: Appreciation

description: Intra-family family farm business succession often requires the faming heir to purchase long term assets, land and facilities, from the non-faming heirs. The mechanisms for such purchases include option to buy, right of first refusal and buy/sell agreements. The control of these mechanisms is either in the hands of the buyer or the seller. The common factor is establishing the price to be used in the sale and purchase. Many farm family business succession plans require that asset(s) to be discounted from the fair market value. The discount recognizes the contribution of the farming heir to the preservation and addition to the estate of the owner. The owner generation must strike a balance between the farming and non-farming heirsâ€™ bequests and the ability of the farm business to fund the farming heirâ€™s purchase of the long term assets. A common approach is to discount the sale price to enable the farming heir to purchase the long term assets. Herein lies the problem: By what amount should the sale price be discounted? A second, but equally difficult problem, is how to insure the farming heir does not receive a windfall profit from an immediate sale of the long term assets after purchasing them at a discounted price. A useful approach is to determine the amount of debt service that the farm business can absorb. The second problem can be resolved by requiring a shared appreciation agreement for the purchase of the long term assets at a discounted price.

subject: net revenue
subject: benefit-cost

description: In order to explore the interference extent of non-economic factors upon Egyptian farmers' crop production plan, benefit-cost ratios, net revenues and domestic resources costs were estimated and their viability tested in variant productive areas for major export crops. The distorting influence of noneconomic factors upon response toward profitability potentials in crops acreage specification was revealed. Marketing problems, uncertainty and fear of risk beside specialization expertise may be the most interfering non-economic factors. As such, price raises and/or cost funding may not be sufficient to encourage production expansion for strategic crops unless considering the well-established production habits. Specifically considering cotton, regaining its past position in international markets requires much effort paid to solve its marketing problems and not only bid up its farm-gate prices.
