How collaborative practices influence a global agricultural value chains' capability to co-innovate
Creators: name: Ayala, SA
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: This study used an interpretative qualitative multi-case study approach. Three frameworks were chosen as the underpinning theoretical frameworks due to their emerging relevance: 1) Hansen and Nohria's (2004) Four Barriers to Collaborative Advantage, to examine individual engagement; 2) Mohr and Nevin's (1990) Communication Strategies to investigate communication practices; and 3) MacCormack et al's (2007) Four Pillars of Collaborative Capabilities as a lens for chain architecture. These frameworks were also chosen explicitly for how they fit together for the purpose of addressing the research question. Participants were purposively sampled from three global agri-chains. Data were collected by interviewing 29 employees about their co-innovation projects and practices using convergent interviewing. Audio recordings were transcribed in N-Vivo for categorisation, coding and unitisation. Excel matrices and tables were used to draw conclusions and theory development. The collaborative chain participants showed greater willingness to collaborate and were better able to transfer tacit knowledge than the trading chain. The communication styles reported to be utilised in successful co-innovation projects were bi-directional, informal, indirect, transparent and face to face. None of the chains significantly organised their people, processes or platforms for collaboration however, the collaborative chains did take a programmed approach to co-innovation. The most significant contribution of this thesis is the proposed integrated model on how to establish co-innovation facilitators in global agri-chains. It is suggested that the collaborative practices influence co-innovation through three broad co-innovation facilitators: 1) strengthening chain relationships; 2) improving information exchange; and 3) creating a coinnovative environment.

Study of isotropic structure in atmospheric boundary layer turbulence
Creators: name: Webster, Ian Taylor
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The two purposes of this study were to determine at what turbulent scales in a high Reynold's number shear flow the transition to isotropy occurs and at what scales Taylor's 'frozen field' hypothesis is applicable. The flow studied was the wind at a height of z = 2 m. above a flat land surface. Four hot wire anemometers were mounted in a three dimensional array to collect data on the downwind turbulent velocity fluctuations. Cross spectra were computed from the observed data between three pairs of hot wires having the same spacing in different directions; these were varied between 1.8 m. and 2 cm. Knowing the observed spectrum of downwind velocity fluctuations and assuming the turbulence is isotropic, incompressible, and obeys Taylor's hypothesis, theoretical cross spectra were computed. The results of the comparison between the observed and theoretical cross spectra for different spacings revealed that in the flow studied the behaviour of the turbulence is consistent with the assumptions of both isotropy and Taylor's hypothesis for k₁z > 20, but for wave numbers less than this range either or both of the assumptions are not valid. However, between k₁z = 4 and k₁z = 20 the turbulence appears to be at least axisymmetric about the downstream direction and for k₁z > 3 that part of Taylor's hypothesis relating observed frequency at a stationary sensor to the downstream wave number component appears to be justified.

description: We present detailed structure and evolution calculations for the first transiting extrasolar planets discovered by the space-based CoRoT mission. Comparisons between theoretical and observed radii provide information on the internal composition of the CoRoT objects. We distinguish three different categories of planets emerging from these discoveries and from previous ground-based surveys: (i) planets explained by standard planetary models including irradiation, (ii) abnormally bloated planets and (iii) massive objects belonging to the overlapping mass regime between planets and brown dwarfs. For the second category, we show that tidal heating can explain the relevant CoRoT objects, providing non-zero eccentricities. We stress that the usual assumption of a quick circularization of the orbit by tides, as usually done in transit light curve analysis, is not justified a priori, as suggested recently by Levrard et al. (2009), and that eccentricity analysis should be carefully redone for some observations. Finally, special attention is devoted to CoRoT-3b and to the identification of its very nature: giant planet or brown dwarf ? The radius determination of this object confirms the theoretical mass-radius predictions for gaseous bodies in the substellar regime but, given the present observational uncertainties, does not allow an unambiguous identification of its very nature. This opens the avenue, however, to an observational identification of these two distinct astrophysical populations, brown dwarfs and giant planets, in their overlapping mass range, as done for the case of the 8 Jupiter-mass object Hat-P-2b.

description: Myocardial ischaemia-reperfusion injury (MI/RI) induces injury against cardiomyocytes and triggers myocardial infarction. Previously, we demonstrated that tetramethylprazine (TMP) was a promising therapeutic agent for attenuating MI/RI. However, poor absorption and low homing efficiency are two main obstacles to the further application of TMP. In this study, a platelet membrane-cloaking TMP-loaded microemulsion (P/TMP-MEs) capable of promoting in vivo absorption and decreasing non-targeted accumulation was fabricated for the improved MI/RI therapy. The average particle size and zeta potential of P/TMP-MEs were 35.9 ± 2.5 nm and −29.4 ± 3.1 mV, respectively. 35.4 ± 2.4 wt% TMP was released from P/TMP-MEs after 48 h of incubation with rat plasma. The coating of the platelet membrane significantly decreased the internalisation of P/TMP-MEs by THP-1 macrophage-like cells compared with the non-platelet modified TMP-loaded microemulsion (TMP-MEs). Besides, P/TMP-MEs did not activate the complement system. After treatment with P/TMP-MEs, the dehydrogenase (LDH) level of the cardiomyocytes was significantly lower than other controls. Rats single-administrated with P/TMP-MEs exhibited the area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) at 463796.7 ± 53614.3 ng/mL/h, and ∼400 ng/mL TMP could still be detected from the plasma after 24 h of administration, exhibiting a prolonged blood circulation time as the platelet membrane coating. More importantly, in the MI/RI therapy in vivo, the creatine kinase (CK) and LDH of the rats treated with P/TMP-MEs were remarkably decreased compared with the free TMP and TMP-MEs groups. The combinational strategy of platelet membrane coating and microemulsion assembly endows TMP with a better prospect for MI/RI therapy.
Defining the informatic person : exploring how socio-technical relationships are created and negotiated in informatic contexts
Creators: name: Lee, AJ
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Societies have become informatic in nature, with patterns of living that emerge from and depend upon access to large data banks and instantaneous transmission of messages‚ÄövÑvp (Hayles 1999:313). This thesis explores the social relationships and practices that emerge around informatic trends. To capture recent developments a novel conceptualisation, that of Informatic Context and Informatic Persons, is proposed. The Informatic Context is the context of data and data technologies in contemporary society, and is defined by the presence of Data Interfaces (that connect individuals to digital contexts), Data Circulation (trends in the movement and storage of data), and Data Abstraction (data manipulation practices). Informatic Persons are those who reside within this context. Using these concepts, this thesis asks what does it mean to be an Informatic Person, and live in an Informatic Context? It explores the kinds of relationships (between humans, nonhumans, or combinations of) assembled while living in the Informatic Context, and how Informatic Persons negotiate and manages these. A qualitative methodology is adopted to achieve this. A sample of twenty two, affluent technology users participated in in-depth, semi-structured interviews to collect data. Results were conceptualised using Irwin and Michael's (2003) theory of Ethno-Epistemic Assemblages. The adoption of informatic technologies, learning skills and technology, risks and surveillance, the benefits of living with Informatic Technologies, and tensions with nonhuman actors are identified as salient relationships that Informatic Persons negotiate. The original contribution of this research is in the identification of how these relationships are highly scalable, and negotiated through narratives of control. Digital mediations have the potential to change the scale of relationships, connecting any interactions to broader socio-technical contexts. These relationships are managed through a narrative of control, with Informatic Persons emphasising their heightened capacity for controlling life through the Informatic Context, despite the limitations of individual agency and technology.

Emission and Absorption Properties of Low-Mass Type 2 Active Galaxies with XMM-Newton

description: We present XMM-Newton observations of four low-redshift Seyfert galaxies selected to have low host luminosities (M_g>-20 mag) and small stellar velocity dispersions (sigma_star<45 km/s), which are among the smallest stellar velocity dispersions found in any active galaxies. These galaxies show weak or no broad optical emission lines and have likely black hole masses <10^6 M_sun. Three out of four objects were detected with >3sigma significance in ~25 ks exposures and two observations had high enough signal-to-noise ratios for rudimentary spectral analysis. We calculate hardness ratios (-0.43 to 0.01) for the three detected objects and use them to estimate photon indices in the range of Gamma=1.1-1.8. Relative to [OIII], the type 2 objects are X-ray faint in comparison with Seyfert 1 galaxies, suggesting that the central engines are obscured. We estimate the intrinsic absorption of each object under the assumption that the [OIII] emission line luminosities are correlated with the unabsorbed X-ray luminosity. The results are consistent with moderate (N_H~10^22 cm^-2) absorption over the Galactic values in three of the four objects, which might explain the non-detection of broad-line emission in optical spectra. One object in our sample, SDSS J110912.40+612346.7, is a near identical type 2 counterpart of the late-type Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4395. While the two objects have very similar [OIII] luminosities, the type 2 object has an X-ray/[OIII] flux ratio nearly an order of magnitude lower than NGC 4395. The most plausible explanation for this difference is absorption of the primary X-ray continuum of the type 2 object, providing an indication that obscuration-based unified models of active galaxies can apply even at the lowest luminosities seen among Seyfert nuclei, down to L_bol~10^40-10^41 erg/s.

description: In this paper we analyze the effects of virtual vector bileptons in polarized Bhabha scattering at the energies of the future linear colliders. In order to make the calculations of the differential cross sections more realistic, important beam effects such as initial state radiation, beamstrahlung, beam energy and polarization spreads are accounted for. The finite resolution of a typical electromagnetic calorimeter planned for the new linear colliders is also considered in the simulation. The 95% confidence level limits for bilepton masses in 331 models are evaluated.

We focus in particular on the purely analytical calculation of the boundary condition which we derive from a three-fold Mellin-Barnes representation. We also describe how the computation of the boundary condition is used to derive three non-trivial relations among harmonic polylogarithms of the sixth root of unity.

Epr of substitutional fe3 in a natural crystal of brookite (tio2)
Creators: name: Rostworowski, Juan Adalberto

Year: 2011

description: EPR spectra of Fe³⁺ in a natural crystal of brookite have been investigated at X- and Q-band frequencies at room temperature and 573°K. Part of the paramagnetic resonance spectrum observed has been interpreted on the assumption that Fe³⁺occupies eight equivalent Ti⁴⁺ sites in brookite, with four inequivalent orientations.. The spectra show an "intermediate" zero-field splitting at X-band and a "normal" zero field splitting at Q-band frequencies. The spin Hamiltonian parameters which fit the spectra are the following: g = 2.002 ± 0.005 . D = (1170 ± 30) x 10⁻⁴cm⁻¹ E = (330 ± 20) x 10⁻⁴cm⁻¹ [pa + (l/l2)qF]₀₁₀ = (13±10) x 10⁻⁴cm⁻¹ [pa + (l/l2)qF]₁₀₀ = (-13±15) x l0⁻⁴cm⁻¹ [pa + (l/l2)qF]₀₀₁ = (-66±4) x l0⁻⁴cm⁻¹

description: We exhibit a mapping identifying Kitaev's quantum double lattice models explicitly as a subclass of Levin and Wen's string net models via a completion of the local Hilbert spaces with auxiliary degrees of freedom. This identification allows to carry over to these string net models the representation-theoretic classification of the excitations in quantum double models, as well as define them in arbitrary lattices, and provides an illustration of the abstract notion of Morita equivalence. The possibility of generalising the map to broader classes of string nets is considered.

A nuclear magnetic resonance study of the quadrupolar interaction in dilute aluminum alloys

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Satellite lines originating from the first nearest neighbours have been observed on the Al²⁷ N.M.R. spectrum in dilute single crystal samples of Al-Mn and Al-Cr. The field and orientation dependence of the satellite position has revealed the quadrupole coupling constant and asymmetry parameter of [formula omitted] = 60 ± 1kHz and [formula omitted] = -0.01 ± 0.005 for Al-Cr, and [formula omitted] = 19 ± 1kHz, [formula omitted] = -0.08 ± 0.02 for Al-Mn. An anisotropic magnetic perturbation of ∆ K[₁₁₁] = -0.05 ± 0.01% and ∆ K[₀₀₁] = -(0.07 ± 0.1)% in Al-Mn is attributed to a spin density perturbation at the impurity sites. The Al-Cr results agree with those of Janossy and Gruner [18] and Minier and Berthier [22]. The satellite line observed in the Al-Mn system was also seen by Launois and Alloul [2], with approximately the same values of [formula omitted] and ∆ K.

A political history of Tasmanian local government : seeking explanations for decline
Creators: name: Ruzicka, ER
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Reforming local government in Tasmania has a varied history of success since its introduction in the early nineteenth century. Failures to meet State government desired economic, environmental and social policy changes have created poor perceptions of local government capacity and generated continual demands for institutional reform such as amalgamation. Large scale boundary reforms have a varied history of resistance and success with explanations for this focused on institutional responses. This thesis reverses the policy gaze by looking at the ideas and beliefs that people bring to their local government practice. Drawing on the body of interpretive theory work of Bevir and Rhodes, a qualitative approach looks for evidence of ideas and beliefs that have persisted over time and which people bring to local government practice. It analyses historical and policy materials to derive sets of beliefs and ideas (as traditions‚ÄövÑvp) which have persisted over time in informing practice and the reaction of people to challenges (dilemmas‚ÄövÑvp). Three traditions (localism, voluntarism, representation) are proposed from English local government practice over its long history. Analysis of historical and policy materials since colonisation concludes the ideas and beliefs people bought to Tasmania were largely located in the period prior to the second English 19th century period of municipal reform. Tasmania's geography and its social and economic (largely agricultural) history contributed to the longevity of pre-secondary period English traditions and practices. Some ideas and beliefs are persistent today however others are now in decline at varying rates across existing municipal areas. By providing a groundbreaking understanding and analysis of Tasmania's local government this thesis argues the need for understanding the ideas and beliefs that still drive local government practice today in any reform process. It provides fertile ground for further research using this approach.

description: We present a near-infrared spectroscopic study of HD 114762B, the latest-type metal-poor companion discovered to date and the only ultracool subdwarf with a known metallicity, inferred from the primary star to be [Fe/H] = -0.7. We obtained a medium-resolution Keck/OSIRIS J-band spectrum and a low-resolution IRTF/SpeX 0.8-2.4 um spectrum of HD 114762B. HD 114762B exhibits spectral features common to both late-type dwarfs and subdwarfs, and we assign it a spectral type of d/sdM9 +/- 1. We use a Monte Carlo technique to fit PHOENIX/GAIA synthetic spectra to the observations, accounting for the coarsely-gridded nature of the models. Fits to the entire OSIRIS J-band and to the metal-sensitive J-band atomic absorption features (Fe I, K I, and Al I lines) yield model parameters that are most consistent with the metallicity of the primary star and the high surface gravity expected of old late-type objects. The effective temperatures and radii inferred from the model atmosphere fitting broadly agree with those predicted by the evolutionary models of Chabrier & Baraffe, and the model color-absolute magnitude relations accurately predict the metallicity of HD 114762B. We conclude that current low-mass, mildly metal-poor atmospheric and evolutionary models are mutually consistent for spectral fits to medium-resolution J-band spectra of HD 114762B, but are inconsistent for fits to low-resolution near-infrared spectra of mild subdwarfs. Finally, we develop a technique for estimating distances to ultracool subdwarfs based on a single near-infrared spectrum. We show that this "spectroscopic parallax" method enables distance estimates accurate to < 10% of parallactic distances for ultracool subdwarfs near the hydrogen burning minimum mass. (abridged)

The targum (1970:May 1 - 1970:May 15)
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: Targum Association
Year: 1970

description: Some University historians indicate that the Targum was first published as an annual in 1867, but of this we have no extant evidence. In January 1869, the Targum as we now know it, made its appearance as a monthly paper that concerned itself with student “literary contributions” and college news as well as serving as a vehicle for bringing news to alumni and the general public. The newspaper, which originally was for sale, varied in frequency over the years as did its title (The Targum, Rutgers Targum, Rutgers Daily Targum, and Daily Targum). The newspaper has continuously been published since 1869 with the exception of 19 months during the second world war, between February 1944 and October 1945. The Targum was published by the students of Rutgers College, and later Rutgers University—New Brunswick represented through the years as the Targum Association, Rutgers Targum Association, and Rutgers College Targum. As a student organization, the Targum operated under the oversight of the dean of students and student government but in October 1980, the Targum became an independent college paper.
title: Governance Gone Wild: Epic Misbehavior at Uber Technologies
Creators: name: Larcker, David F.

Publisher: name: Corporate Governance Research Initiative
Year: 2017

description: In this Closer Look, we examine the roles that leadership and culture play in contributing to chronic misbehavior and the manner in which it takes root in an organization. We use the example of Uber Technologies. Between 2012 and 2017, Uber Technologies faced a series of governance challenges including regulatory battles, relations with drivers, intellectual property theft, cybersecurity breaches, allegations of sexual harassment, and boardroom battles. We discuss these in detail and ask: Did Uber’s early risk-seeking behavior cause larger problems down the road? How important is CEO personality and behavior in influencing the collective behavior of an organization? How difficult is it to change culture, once it is established? To what extent is culture created top down and to what extent bottom up? Does Uber need a substantial turnover of management and key non-management employees to successfully complete a cultural shift?

description: Our present knowledge of neutrinos can be summarized in terms of the "standard neutrino scenario". Phenomenology of this scenario as well as attempts to uncover physics behind neutrino mass and mixing are described. Goals of future studies include complete reconstruction of the neutrino mass and flavor spectrum, further test of the standard scenario and search for new physics beyond it. Developments of new experimental techniques may lead to construction of new neutrino detectors from table-top to multi-Megaton scales which will open new horizons in the field. With detection of neutrino bursts from the Galactic supernova and high energy cosmic neutrinos neutrino astrophysics will enter qualitatively new phase. Neutrinos and LHC (and future colliders), neutrino astronomy, neutrino structure of the Universe, and probably, neutrino technologies will be among leading topics of research.

Visual arts education in Tasmanian primary schools : the perceptions of generalist teachers
Creators: name: Brooke, S
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: The perceptions generalist primary school teachers have of visual arts education in Tasmanian primary schools gives insight into what visual arts experiences Tasmanian primary school students are receiving throughout primary school. The study was developed in order to explore the learning and experiences that Tasmanian generalist primary school teachers provide for their students in visual arts in the primary school classroom, and the rationale behind these. This study came about because as a high school art teacher, the researcher had noticed that a lot of students when they reached high school were disinterested in visual arts or did not believe they were any good at it. Therefore, the researcher wanted insight into what visual arts primary school teachers were teaching, how they were teaching visual arts and how confident and competent they were in their visual arts teaching. With the aim that this would help to develop an understanding of what visual arts 'looks like' in Tasmanian primary schools, and in so doing establish what further research may be developed to continue to improve visual arts teaching in Tasmanian primary schools. A naturalistic, mixed methods approach was used to uncover the perceptions and opinions of Tasmanian generalist primary school teachers in regards to their visual arts teaching. The inductive analysis of both qualitative (interview/ survey) and quantitative (survey) data as well as an examination of the literature expanded on the perceptions generalist primary school teachers. The study was of all Tasmanian generalist primary school teachers and a survey was conducted and made available to all from the Department of Education, Catholic Education and Independent Schools via email. Those who then wanted to offer their time to participant in an interview could do so. The interview participants were then purposefully selected. The use of both qualitative and quantitative data allowed for a deeper understanding of the perceptions of Tasmanian generalist primary school teachers. The findings of this study help to understand what visual arts Tasmanian generalist primary school teachers are teaching, with the intention of helping advocacy for the importance of visual arts education.

description: M band spectra of two late-type T dwarfs, 2MASS J09373487+2931409, and Gliese 570D, confirm evidence from photometry that photospheric CO is present at abundance levels far in excess of those predicted from chemical equilibrium. These new and unambiguous detections of CO, together with an earlier spectroscopic detection of CO in Gliese 229B and existing M band photometry of a large selection of T dwarfs, suggest that vertical mixing in the photosphere drives the CO abundance out of chemical equilibrium and is a common, and likely universal feature of mid-to-late type T dwarfs. The M band spectra allow determinations of the time scale of vertical mixing in the atmosphere of each object, the first such measurements of this important parameter in late T dwarfs. A detailed analysis of the spectral energy distribution of 2MASS J09373487+2931409 results in the following values for metallicity, temperature, surface gravity, and luminosity: [M/H]~-0.3, T_eff=925-975K, log g=5.20-5.47, log L/L_sun=-5.308 +/- 0.027. The age is 3-10 Gyr and the mass is in the range 45-69 M_Jup.

Development of a laser oscillator-amplifier combination and a multi-channel spectral detection system for light scattering experiments
Creators: name: Albach, Gary George
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: In preparation for laser light scattering experiments on plasmas in magnetic fields a pulsed ruby laser has been developed in conjunction with a multichannel spectral analyser for detection of the scattered light. The laser, consisting of separate oscillator and amplifier rods has a spectral line width of .08 Å at powers up to 100 Megawatts. The use of a Pockels Cell as the Q-switch permits accurate synchronization with the spectral analyser and all external electronics. For the multichannel detection system five fiber optics slit bundles transmit light from the output of a monochromater to five photomultipiier tubes, which are gated on for 100 nsec during the laser pulse. The pulses are displayed sequentially to give an intensity vs. wavelength profile on an oscilloscope screen.
title: Netflix Approach to Governance: Genuine Transparency with the Board
Creators: name: Larcker, David F.
name: Tayan, Brian
Publisher: name: Corporate Governance Research Initiative
Year: 2018

description: The hallmark of good corporate governance is an independent board of directors to oversee management. However, it is not clear that independent directors receive the information they need to make fully informed decisions on all key matters. Partly, this is due to an information gap, whereby outside directors know substantially less about the business and market because of their limited exposure to the day-to-day activities of the company. Netflix has devised a unique approach to information sharing with the goal of significantly increasing transparency among the CEO, executive team, and board of directors: Board members attend senior management meetings throughout the year, and board presentations are structured as online memos in narrative form with direct links to supporting analysis as well as all data and information on the company’s internal shared systems. We examine these practices in detail and ask: Does greater transparency improve board decisions? Would other boards benefit from more active interaction with management and an open view of its decision-making processes? How transferable is the Netflix approach to other companies? What qualities are required of a CEO to be willing to engage with board members in this manner? Could a company adopt one of these practices and not the other and still benefit from greater transparency?
Complementary use of TEM and APT for the investigation of steels nanostructured by severe plastic deformation

description: The properties of bulk nanostructured materials are often controlled by atomic scale features like segregation along defects or composition gradients. Here we discuss about the complimentary use of TEM and APT to obtain a full description of nanostructures. The advantages and limitations of both techniques are highlighted on the basis of experimental data collected in severely deformed steels with a special emphasis on carbon spatial distribution.
Mood and maladaptive behaviour: the effect of emotional intelligence, personality, and mood on emotional manipulation
Creators: name: Allen, C
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: The current study aimed to investigate mechanisms of emotional manipulation, by examining the combined predictive utility of emotional intelligence, agreeableness, conscientiousness and mood, within a correlational design, with an experimental longitudinal component. Participants (155 male and female undergraduate students) completed measures of personality and emotional intelligence before undergoing a mood induction procedure (happy, sad, and neutral). Participants then reported their ability and willingness to emotionally manipulate, as well as to adopt specific emotional manipulation strategies. It was hypothesised that personality and emotional intelligence would predict emotional manipulation, with strongest effects with mood-worsening and inauthentic strategies. It was also expected that worse moods would be associated with greater emotional manipulation. Hypotheses received mixed support. Personality and emotional intelligence did predict emotional manipulation, however this did not differ across aspects of emotional manipulation. Only the use of inauthentic strategies was predicted by sad moods. Future research could explore these findings across different contexts, in addition to using ability measures of emotional manipulation. It can be concluded that emotional intelligence, agreeableness, and conscientiousness are predictors of emotional manipulation. The current study has implicated mood as predictor for the first time, however further research is needed clarify its role.

description: We present a relativistic formulation of noncommutative mechanics were the object of noncommutativity $θ^{μν}$ is considered as an independent quantity. Its canonical conjugate momentum is also introduced, what permits to obtain an explicit form for the generators of the Lorentz group in the noncommutative case. The theory, which is invariant under reparametrization, generalizes recent nonrelativistic results. Free noncommutative bosonic particles satisfy an extended Klein-Gordon equation depending on two parameters.

The protective effect of mindfulness after meaning threat: controlling implicit racial biases
Creators: name: Cocker, CM
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Racial prejudice against Indigenous Australians contributes to their substantial marginalisation and discrimination. Implicit associations of Indigenous persons with negative connotations can unconsciously activate thoughts and behaviours that reinforce negative racial attitudes. Mindfulness research suggests focused attention on present awareness can enhance attentional control, consequently reducing automatic racial bias. Conversely, meaning threats violate normal expectancies, induce uncertainty and enhance association bias. The current study investigated whether mindfulness training protects against elevated implicit racial bias after an uncertainty threat. 112 Caucasian adults (M = 29.17, SD = 12.48) were allocated into one of four conditions: double active (n = 26), mindfulness active (n = 25), meaning threat active (n = 30), or double control (n = 31). A mindfulness exercise was followed by a meaning threat story with implicit racial bias measured through a newly constructed Indigenous Australian Race Implicit Association Test. No significant interaction of racial bias was revealed across conditions `(p = .858, ˜í‚àëp^2= 0.00)`. The hypothesis that mindfulness training would reduce racial bias after meaning threat was not supported. 10-minutes of non-mindful attention may result in dissipated mindfulness effects due to a transient mindful state being induced for novice meditators.
The Effect of a Chameleon Scalar Field on the Cosmic Microwave Background

description: We show that a direct coupling between a chameleon-like scalar field and photons can give rise to a modified Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). The coupling induces a mixing between chameleon particles and the CMB photons when they pass through the magnetic field of a galaxy cluster. Both the intensity and the polarization of the radiation are modified. The degree of modification depends strongly on the properties of the galaxy cluster such as magnetic field strength and electron number density. Existing SZ measurements of the Coma cluster enable us to place constraints on the photon-chameleon coupling. The constrained conversion probability in the cluster is P_Coma(204 GHz) < 6.2 * 10^{-5} at 95% confidence, corresponding to an upper bound on the coupling strength of g_eff < 2.2 * 10^{-8} GeV^-1 or g_eff < 7.2-32.5 * 10^{-10} GeV^-1, depending on the model that is assumed for the cluster magnetic field structure. We predict the radial profile of the chameleonic CMB intensity decrement. We find that the chameleon effect extends further towards the edges of the cluster than the thermal SZ effect. Thus we might see a discrepancy between the X-ray emission data and the observed SZ intensity decrement. We further predict the expected change to the CMB polarization arising from the existence of a chameleon-like scalar field. These predictions could be verified or constrained by future CMB experiments.
