description: Theoretical models of protoplanetary disks have shown the Vertical Shear Instability (VSI) to be a prime candidate to explain turbulence in the dead zone of the disk. However, simulations of the VSI have yet to show consistent levels of key disk turbulence parameters like the stress-to-pressure ratio $α$. We aim to reconcile these different values by performing a parameter study on the VSI with focus on the disk density gradient $p$ and aspect ratio $h := H/R$. We use full 2$π$ 3D simulations of the disk for chosen set of both parameters. All simulations are evolved for 1000 reference orbits, at a resolution of 18 cells per h. We find that the saturated stress-to-pressure ratio in our simulations is dependent on the disk aspect ratio with a \review{strong} scaling of $α\propto h^{2.6}$, in contrast to the traditional $α$ model, where viscosity scales as $ν\propto αh^2$ with a constant $α$. We also observe consistent formation of large scale vortices across all investigated parameters. The vortices show uniformly aspect ratios of $χ\approx 10$ and radial widths of approximately 1.5 $H$. With our findings we can reconcile the different values reported for the stress-to-pressure ratio from both isothermal and radiation hydrodynamics models, and show long-term evolution effects of the VSI that could aide in the formation of planetesimals.

description: The emergent properties of quantum materials, such as symmetry-broken phases and associated spectral gaps, can be effectively manipulated by ultrashort photon pulses. Impulsive optical excitation generally results in a complex non-equilibrium electron and lattice dynamics that involves multiple processes on distinct timescales, and a common conception is that for times shorter than about 100 fs the gap in the electronic spectrum is not seriously affected by lattice vibrations. Here, we directly monitor the photo-induced collapse of the spectral gap in a canonical charge-density-wave material, blue bronze Rb0.3MoO3. We find that ultra-fast (about 60 fs) vibrational disordering due to efficient hot-electron energy dissipation quenches the gap significantly faster than the typical structural bottleneck time corresponding to one half-cycle oscillation (about 315 fs) of the coherent charge-density-wave amplitude mode. This result not only demonstrates the importance of incoherent lattice motion in the photo-induced quenching of electronic order, but also resolves the perennial debate about the nature of the spectral gap in a coupled electron-lattice system.

description: We investigate the production efficiency of ultracold molecules in bosonic $^{85}$Rb and fermionic $^{40}$K when the magnetic field is swept across a Feshbach resonance. For adiabatic sweeps of the magnetic field, the conversion efficiency of each species is solely determined by the phase space density of the atomic cloud, in contrast to a number of theoretical predictions. Our novel model for the adiabatic pairing process, developed from general physical principles, accurately predicts the conversion efficiency for {\it both} ultracold gases of bosons and of fermions. In the non-adiabatic regime our measurements of the $^{85}$Rb molecule conversion efficiency follow a Landau Zener model, with a conversion efficiency that is characterized by the density divided by the time derivative of the magnetic field.

Three specific questions are: How effective has the funding on Environmental RS&T been? Is Environmental RS&T having a positive effect by delivering real benefits to New Zealand, particularly to the environment? What influences the link between research and tangible positive benefits? This paper reports how case studies applied to irrigated agriculture and mussel farming were used to provide partial answers to these three questions. The case studies proceed by noting the possible benefits that Environmental RS&T may have created, and then tracing the link back to specific research projects that contributed towards the benefits.

description: In July 2003, ZESPRI International merged the Technology Transfer team that had historically been focused on achieving uptake of new technologies with ZESPRI Innovation, the team that had been responsible for the development of new technologies. This change has combined skills in research, development and extension into a single, co-ordinated grouping to improve grower profitability through a greater contribution to supply chain developments and grower learning. The Industry Development strategy of ZESPRI Innovation is based upon a model of industry learning. The model takes into account the needs of a range of stakeholders in the supply chain, the technologies, the necessity for the industry to have clear market signals, and the different learning styles of growers. Applying the model will involve ZESPRI staff in traditional industry development events such as field days and industry development communiqués (e.g. newsletters) and a website, together with new technology development projects e.g. monitor orchards and “industry is the lab” projects. ZESPRI Innovation is moving beyond a historical “recipe-based” approach in technology transfer, to one that empowers industry participants to make effective commercial decisions based upon their own learning and knowledge. The application of developments in learning theory is an important component to the new strategy and to its on-going development.

description: In this work, we perform steady-state continuous wave (cw) photoluminescence (PL) measurements on a MAPbI$_3$ thin film in the temperature range of 10-160 K, using excitation densities spanning over almost seven orders of magnitude, in particular investigating very low densities, rarely used in the published literature. The temperature range used in this study is below or at the edge of the orthorhombic-tetragonal phase transition in MAPbI$_3$. In particular, we show that even in high quality MAPbI$_3$, capable of providing high photovoltaic efficiency, the defect density is high enough to give rise to an energy level band. Furthermore, we show that the intensity ratio between the two PL components related to the two crystalline phases, is a function of temperature and excitation. At high excitation intensities, we show that amplified spontaneous emission is attainable even in cw conditions. Time-resolved PL is also performed to justify some assignments of the PL features. Finally, our systematic approach, typical for the characterization of semiconductors, suggests that it should also be applied to hybrid halide perovskites and that, under suitable conditions, the PL characteristics of MAPbI$_3$ can be reconciled with those of conventional inorganic semiconductors.

description: The link between trade and the environment has aroused considerable interest both in terms of the impact of trade liberalisation on the environment, and also the impact of environmental policy on production and trade. Of key environmental concern at present is global warming and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Global attempts to limit GHG emissions will also impact on agricultural trade and producer returns, particularly in countries such as NZ, where relatively large proportions of GHG emissions originate from the agricultural sector. This study uses a partial equilibrium agricultural trade model, extended to include production systems and GHG emissions, to analyse the effects of GHG mitigation policies on agricultural production and trade.
Communication in intermittently-connected networks
Creators: name: Kempe, Gregory
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Communication in the face of intermittent, short-lived and possibly unreliable connectivity can be difficult when relying solely on Internet protocols, such as IP and TCP, which have an implicit assumption of well-connectedness. Furthermore, use of these protocols is impossible when there is no fully connected end-to-end path between hosts. We present Euonym, an architecture that uses a layer of persistent names to identify hosts, networks and services, and allows arbitrary intermediate helper hosts to be interposed between endpoints on-the-fly. These helper hosts can provide routing, buffering and other support services to help relieve reliance on end-to-end paths. They can be placed to take advantage of intermittent connectivity when and as it arises and be used to supplement connectivity with untraditional networking and transport mechanisms, such as data mules and the postal network, without any additional support at the end hosts. We show that simple disconnection tolerance and use of intermediate hosts facilitates communication and promotes connectivity in intermittently-connected networks.

description: We report ALMA observations of NGC 1052 to quest mass accretion in a gas-poor active galactic nucleus (AGN). We detected CO emission representing a rotating ring-like circumnuclear disk (CND) seen edge-on with the gas mass of $5.3 \times 10^{5}$ M$_{\odot}$. The CND has smaller gas mass than that in typical Seyfert galaxies with circumnuclear star formation and is too gas-poor to drive mass accretion onto the central engine. The continuum emission casts molecular absorption features of CO, HCN, HCO$^+$, SO, SO$_2$, CS, CN, and H$_2$O, with H$^{13}$CN and HC$^{15}$N and vibrationally-excited (v$_2 = 1$) HCN and HCO$^+$. Broader absorption line widths than CND emission line widths imply presence of a geometrically thick molecular torus with a radius of $2.4 \pm 1.3$ pc and a thickness ratio of $0.7 \pm 0.3$. We estimate the H$_2$ column density of $(3.3 \pm 0.7) \times 10^{25}$ cm$^{-2}$ using H$^{12}$CN, H$^{13}$CN, and HCO$^{+}$ absorption features and adopting abundance ratio of $^{12}$C-to-$^{13}$C and a HCO$^{+}$-to-H$_2$, and derived the torus gas mass of $(1.3 \pm 0.3) \times 10^7$ M$_{\odot}$, which is $\sim 9$\% of the central black-hole mass. The molecular gas in the torus is clumpy with the estimated covering factor of $0.17^{+0.06}_{-0.03}$. The gas density of clumps inside the torus is inferred to be $(6.4 \pm 1.3) \times 10^7$ cm$^{-3}$, which meets the excitation conditions of H$_2$O maser. Specific angular momentum in the torus exceeds a flat-rotation curve extrapolated from that of the CND, indicating a Keplerian rotation inside a 14.4-pc sphere of influence.

description: We construct multiloop superparticle amplitudes in 11d using the pure spinor formalism. We explain how this construction reduces to the superparticle limit of the multiloop pure spinor superstring amplitudes prescription. We then argue that this construction points to some evidence for the existence of a topological M theory based on a relation between the ghost number of the full-fledged supersymmetric critical models and the dimension of the spacetime for topological models. In particular, we show that the extensions at higher orders of the previous results for the tree and one-loop level expansion for the superparticle in 11 dimensions is related to a topological model in 7 dimensions.

description: Zero-shot learning uses semantic attributes to connect the search space of unseen objects. In recent years, although the deep convolutional network brings powerful visual modeling capabilities to the ZSL task, its visual features have severe pattern inertia and lack of representation of semantic relationships, which leads to severe bias and ambiguity. In response to this, we propose the Graph-based Visual-Semantic Entanglement Network to conduct graph modeling of visual features, which is mapped to semantic attributes by using a knowledge graph, it contains several novel designs: 1. it establishes a multi-path entangled network with the convolutional neural network (CNN) and the graph convolutional network (GCN), which input the visual features from CNN to GCN to model the implicit semantic relations, then GCN feedback the graph modeled information to CNN features; 2. it uses attribute word vectors as the target for the graph semantic modeling of GCN, which forms a self-consistent regression for graph modeling and supervise GCN to learn more personalized attribute relations; 3. it fuses and supplements the hierarchical visual-semantic features refined by graph modeling into visual embedding. Our method outperforms state-of-the-art approaches on multiple representative ZSL datasets: AwA2, CUB, and SUN by promoting the semantic linkage modelling of visual features.

description: Brane inflation in superstring theory ends when branes collide, initiating the hot big bang. Cosmic superstrings are produced during the brane collision. The cosmic superstrings produced in a D3-brane-antibrane inflationary scenario have a spectrum: $(p,q)$ bound states of $p$ fundamental (F) strings and $q$ D-strings, where $p$ and $q$ are coprime. By extending the velocity-dependent one-scale network evolution equations for abelian Higgs cosmic strings to allow a spectrum of string tensions, we construct a coupled (infinite) set of equations for strings that interact through binding and self-interactions. We apply this model to a network of $(p,q)$ superstrings. Our numerical solutions show that $(p,q)$ networks rapidly approach a stable scaling solution. We also extract the relative densities of each string type from our solutions. Typically, only a small number of the lowest tension states are populated substantially once scaling is reached. The model we study also has an interesting new feature: the energy released in $(p,q)$ string binding is by itself adequate to allow the network to reach scaling. This result suggests that the scaling solution is robust. To demonstrate that this result is not trivial, we show that choosing a different form for string interactions can lead to network frustration.

description: This research estimates the commercial costs and benefits associated with selected aquaculture projects in the Canterbury region. Mussel farming employment will most likely be generated in coastal communities that at present have few employment opportunities. These communities are likely to profit as well from increased infrastructure needs for the marine farming enterprise. Any development in the marine farming industry will take many years to reach full potential. This means that the costs and benefits from increased marine farming activities will be staggered over a number of years. It is acknowledged that the gains might be achieved at different locations than the losses occur. The effects on other stakeholders are often uncertain.
From the jungle to the garden : growing trees for Markov chain Monte Carlo inference in undirected graphical models
Creators: name: Rivasseau, Jean-Noël
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: In machine-learning, Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) strategies such as Gibbs sampling are important approximate inference techniques. They use a Markov Chain mechanism to explore and sample the state space of a target distribution. The generated samples are then used to approximate the target distribution. MCMC is mathematically guaranteed to converge with enough samples. Yet some complex graphical models can cause it to converge very slowly to the true distribution of interest. Improving the quality and efficiency of MCMC methods is an active topic of research in the probabilistic graphical models field. One possible method is to "block" some parts of the graph together, sampling groups of variables instead of single variables. In this thesis, we concentrate on a particular blocking scheme known as tree sampling. Tree sampling operates on groups of trees, and as such requires that the graph be partitioned in a special way prior to inference. We present new algorithms to find tree partitions on arbitrary graphs. This allows tree sampling to be used on any undirected probabilistic graphical model.

Theory of Parabolic Arcs in Interstellar Scintillation Spectra

description: Our theory relates the secondary spectrum, the 2D power spectrum of the radio dynamic spectrum, to the scattered pulsar image in a thin scattering screen geometry. Recently discovered parabolic arcs in secondary spectra are generic features for media that scatter radiation at angles much larger than the rms scattering angle. Each point in the secondary spectrum maps particular values of differential arrival-time delay and fringe rate (or differential Doppler frequency) between pairs of components in the scattered image. Arcs correspond to a parabolic relation between these quantities through their common dependence on the angle of arrival of scattered components. Arcs appear even without consideration of the dispersive nature of the plasma. Arcs are more prominent in media with negligible inner scale and with shallow wavenumber spectra, such as the Kolmogorov spectrum, and when the scattered image is elongated along the velocity direction. The arc phenomenon can be used, therefore, to constrain the inner scale and the anisotropy of scattering irregularities for directions to nearby pulsars. Arcs are truncated by finite source size and thus provide sub micro arc sec resolution for probing emission regions in pulsars and compact active galactic nuclei. Multiple arcs sometimes seen signify two or more discrete scattering screens along the propagation path, and small arclets oriented oppositely to the main arc persisting for long durations indicate the occurrence of long-term multiple images from the scattering screen.

description: Accurate diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) followed by effective rehabilitation is essential for the management of this disorder. Artificial intelligence (AI) techniques can aid physicians to apply automatic diagnosis and rehabilitation procedures. AI techniques comprise traditional machine learning (ML) approaches and deep learning (DL) techniques. Conventional ML methods employ various feature extraction and classification techniques, but in DL, the process of feature extraction and classification is accomplished intelligently and integrally. DL methods for diagnosis of ASD have been focused on neuroimaging-based approaches. Neuroimaging techniques are non-invasive disease markers potentially useful for ASD diagnosis. Structural and functional neuroimaging techniques provide physicians substantial information about the structure (anatomy and structural connectivity) and function (activity and functional connectivity) of the brain. Due to the intricate structure and function of the brain, proposing optimum procedures for ASD diagnosis with neuroimaging data without exploiting powerful AI techniques like DL may be challenging. In this paper, studies conducted with the aid of DL networks to distinguish ASD are investigated. Rehabilitation tools provided for supporting ASD patients utilizing DL networks are also assessed. Finally, we will present important challenges in the automated detection and rehabilitation of ASD and propose some future works.
Synthetic Running Coupling of QCD

description: Based on a study of the analytic running coupling obtained from the standard perturbation theory results up to four-loop order, the QCD ``synthetic'' running coupling α_{syn} is built. In so doing the perturbative time-like discontinuity is preserved and nonperturbative contributions not only remove the nonphysical singularities of the perturbation theory in the infrared region but also decrease rapidly in the ultraviolet region. In the framework of the approach, on the one hand, the running coupling is enhanced at zero and, on the other hand, the dynamical gluon mass m_g arises. Fixing the parameter which characterize the infrared enhancement corresponding to the string tension σand normalization, say, at M_τcompletely define the synthetic running coupling. In this case the dynamical gluon mass appears to be fixed and the higher loop stabilization property of m_g is observed. For σ= (0.42 GeV)^2 and α_{syn}(M^2_τ) = 0.33 \pm 0.01 it is obtained that m_g = 530 \pm 80 MeV.

description: MoRST is performing an evaluation of the funds invested in environmental research. The two case studies discussed in this paper contribute to the ongoing decision-making about this investment. Substantial funds have been invested in both research programmes identified. Because the main benefits associated with research output are environmental, they are difficult to value monetarily. Preliminary analysis suggests that at a discount rate of 6%, annual future benefit flows of $7 - $10 million will justify the water quality/clarity research. The expenditure on possum biocontrol will be justified if the research generates an annual future benefit flow of $20 million.

description: We consider the so-called length-interacting Arak-Surgailis polygonal Markov fields with V-shaped nodes - a continuum and isometry invariant process in the plane sharing a number of properties with the two-dimensional Ising model. For these polygonal fields we establish a low-temperature phase separation theorem in the spirit of the Dobrushin-Kotecky-Shlosman theory, with the corresponding Wulff shape deteremined to be a disk due to the rotation invariant nature of the considered model. As an important tool replacing the classical cluster expansion techniques and very well suited for our geometric setting we use a graphical construction built on contour birth and death process, following the ideas of Fernandez, Ferrari and Garcia.

description: Training a state-of-the-art deep neural network (DNN) is a computationally-expensive and time-consuming process, which incentivizes deep learning developers to debug their DNNs for computational performance. However, effectively performing this debugging requires intimate knowledge about the underlying software and hardware systems---something that the typical deep learning developer may not have. To help bridge this gap, we present Skyline: a new interactive tool for DNN training that supports in-editor computational performance profiling, visualization, and debugging. Skyline's key contribution is that it leverages special computational properties of DNN training to provide (i) interactive performance predictions and visualizations, and (ii) directly manipulatable visualizations that, when dragged, mutate the batch size in the code. As an in-editor tool, Skyline allows users to leverage these diagnostic features to debug the performance of their DNNs during development. An exploratory qualitative user study of Skyline produced promising results; all the participants found Skyline to be useful and easy to use.

Concrete - A versatile Composite Material
Creators: name: Flintoff, Andrew
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2021

description: It is not simply that concrete is used widely in construction for various needs. It is used for the building of foundations and to give structural support to buildings, it is also used in the building of homes and schools and tall industrial buildings, pavements, warehouses, walls, compounds and even floors. Additionally, even shops and restaurants may be built using concrete. The reason behind its popularity is due to the fact that it is so versatile that it can be used in many different ways as the construction necessitates. For example Commercial Concrete Supplier can be mixed in a certain way and can be used in the construction of foundations. How it is used Concrete is a compound material that is made up of other ingredients such as certain stones, cement and water. During construction the concrete is in its powder form which is then mixed with water and used as needed. The right mix of concrete, with its various ingredients, is decided according to the composition of the soil in the place where the building is to be built as well as the type of building. For instance , in places where the soil has a high sodium content and therefore will eventually affect the foundations of the building, special care is taken with the concrete mix, wherein the ingredients are adjusted accordingly and further ingredients if needed are added to combat this issue. Some Commercial Concrete Supplier even add sulfites to the concrete in order to enable it to resist any damage that may be caused due to the chemicals that are present in the soil. Additional Information Furthermore the perfect mix of concrete also depends on the type of building to be built. In the case of homes, regular concrete or ready-mix concrete is used. When it comes to tall commercial buildings that are going to see a lot of foot traffic or other impacts upon it, a stronger mix of Commercial Concrete Is used. Nowadays there are volumetric concrete mixer trucks that have all the ingredients that are needed to make the different types of concrete, and are mixed and delivered at the construction site as is required. The Making of Concrete Concrete for construction is usually mixed in a batch plant according to the construction site requirements and then is poured on to trucks and is delivered at the construction sites. The Commercial Concrete Supplier usually makes different mixes of concrete as the order is placed and then it is delivered by trucks that protect it from the elements and from drying out before delivering it to the construction site. This is especially useful for larger constructions as it is not feasible to be mixing the concrete on site for this. Some concerns As mentioned above for larger constructions concrete just cannot be mixed on site, as it tends to dry quickly. Dry concrete and fresh concrete do not adhere to each other all, there one needs to practice due diligence when working with Commercial Concrete Supplier.

description: Quantum transport has far-reaching applications in modern electronics as it enables the control of currents in nanoscale systems such as quantum dots. In this paper we introduce tinie: a state-of-the-art quantum transport simulation framework, which can efficiently perform first-principle calculations based on the Landauer-Büttiker formalism. The computational repertoire of tinie includes calculations of transmission, conductivity, and currents running through arbitrary multi-terminal two-dimensional transport devices, with additional tools that enable the computation of the local density of states. The generality of tinie ranges from wide-band approximation calculations to investigating systems subject to an external magnetic field. The future prospects of tinie include the simulation of, e.g., two-dimensional cavities, quantum dots, or molecular junctions. The package is written in Python 3.6, and its well-documented modular structure is designed with an intent to create a platform suited for continuous expansion and development. With tinie it is possible to obtain specific information about the effects of impurities and imperfections in quantum devices, particularly between ballistic and diffusive transport regimes.
