description: Fluctuations of the current through a tunnel junction are measured using a Josephson junction. The current noise adds to the bias current of the Josephson junction and affects its switching out of the supercurrent branch. The experiment is carried out in a regime where switching is determined by thermal activation. The variance of the noise results in an elevated effective temperature, whereas the third cumulant, related to its asymmetric character, leads to a difference in the switching rates observed for opposite signs of the current through the tunnel junction. Measurements are compared quantitatively with recent theoretical predictions.

An overview of mobile commerce from a Tasmanian end users perspective
Creators: name: Wong, RYL
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania

description: As society has progressed into the 21st Century, conducting business via the Internet has become a common practice for many people. With the rapid innovation and advancement of mobile communication technology and the forthcoming third generation (3G) mobile network, a new way to conduct and deliver products and services has evolved. The concept known as mobile commerce (m-commerce) is now gaining more attention from both the IS research community as well as business organisations on a worldwide basis. However, at present there is only a limited understanding of how to promote the uptake of (m-commerce by end users. From a review of the literature it became apparent that there is a considerable body of know ledge in relation to m-commerce adoption from a perspective of end users as technology end users. However, it also became evident that the issue of the adoption of m-commerce from a perspective of end users as consumers has been largely ignored by IS researchers. In addition, the results of research that has focussed on the barriers and values related to m-commerce from an end user perspective have generally been inconclusive. In response the objective of the research presented in this thesis is to gain a '-better understanding from an end user consumer perspective, of the adoption of m-commerce. This research represents an exploratory study based on the general population in Tasmania, the island state of Australia. It was based on a quantitative approach with questionnaires administered to 300 people selected at random from the three Telstra telephone directories applicable in this state. The major findings of this research have identified the services where end users as consumers are more likely to adopt m-commerce. It has also identified that efficiency and mobility were the key value dimensions viewed by the respondents as most important in m-commerce. Even though the respondents expressed a willingness to use m-commerce, paradoxically they indicated a preference to use the services via a stationary PC in a fixed setting such as at home and at work. Among these respondents the difficulty inputting text data and perceived high usage cost were identified as keys barrier for end-user adoption of m-commerce. The findings were compared with research conducted in Finland. This provided an opportunity to consider the situation in Tasmania with respect to m-commerce adoption against that in a highly technologically advanced country. It is proposed that this research has made contributions to both knowledge and practice in relation to the adoption of m-commerce from all. end user as consumer perspective. Finally, based on the experience of conducting this research opportunities or future research were proposed.

La originalidad del tema gauchesco en la novela de Benito Lynch

description: Frente al hecho de la rápida desaparición del gaucho y su tradicional cuna pampera, Benito Lynch consagra sus dotes literarias a salvar los residuos de un tipo popular y prestigioso de la región rioplatense. En su producción literaria, Lynch se atiene a un período bien delimitado. Recorta una época específica correspondiente a su niñez y adolescencia - finales del siglo XIX y principios del siglo XX- , retratando al gaucho y a la campaña que él conoció. Al emprender esta tarea tenía muy en cuenta que el material literario sobre el gaucho ya estaba virtualmente agotado. Todo lo que se pudiera haber dicho sobre el gaucho ya fue dicho por los escritores que le precedieron. En este estudio intentaremos subrayar los elementos por medio de los cuales Lynch supera esta dificultad y logra dar originalidad a su obras. En el primer capítulo se intenta definir el tipo de gaucho que Lynch retrata en.su obra. En el segundo capítulo se exponen los datos biográficos del autor, por medio de los que se sugiere su afinidad con la materia gauchesca; el escenario y los personajes de sus obras. En el siguiente capítulo se anota su innovación temática, la función de los personajes más exóticos y cultos, los conflictos psicológicos, y la visión naturalista y filosofía personal del autor. Y en el último capítulo se estudia la estructura y el estilo y su relación con la materia y el asunto. En este estudio nos limitamos esencialmente a la producción novelesca de Lynch y usamos sólo como referencia algunas de las restantes obras en prosa del autor.

description: Epitaxial films of NdFeAsO were grown on GaAs substrates by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). All elements including oxygen were supplied from solid sources using Knudsen cells. The x-ray diffraction pattern of the film prepared with the optimum growth condition showed no indication of impurity phases. Only (00l) peaks were observed, indicating that NdFeAsO was grown with the c-axis perpendicular to the substrate. The window of optimum growth condition was very narrow, but the NdFeAsO phase was grown with a very good reproducibility. Despite the absence of any appreciable secondary phase, the resistivity showed an increase with decreasing temperature.

Combined effects of tidal and rotational distortions on the equilibrium configuration of low-mass, pre-main sequence stars

description: In close binary systems, rotation and tidal forces of the component stars deform each other and destroy their spherical symmetry. We present new models for low-mass, pre-main sequence stars that include the combined distortion effects of tidal and rotational forces on the equilibrium configuration of stars. We investigate the effects of interaction between tides and rotation on the stellar structure and evolution. The Kippenhahn & Thomas (1970) approximation, along with the Clairaut-Legendre expansion for the gravitational potential of a self-gravitating body, is used to take the distortion effects into account. We obtained values of internal structure constants for low-mass, pre-main sequence stars from stellar evolutionary models that consider the combined effects of rotation and tidal forces due to a companion star. We also derived a new expression for the rotational inertia of a tidally and rotationally distorted star. Our distorted models were successfully used to analyze the eclipsing binary system EK Cep, reproducing the stellar radii, effective temperature ratio, lithium depletion, rotational velocities, and the apsidal motion rate in the age interval of 15.5-16.7 Myr. In the low-mass range, the assumption that harmonics greater than j=2 can be neglected seems not to be fully justified, although it is widely used when analyzing the apsidal motion of binary systems. The non-standard evolutionary tracks are cooler than the standard ones, mainly for low-mass stars. Distorted models predict more mass-concentrated stars at the zero-age main-sequence than standard models.
A Model for Conductive Percolation in Ordered Nanowire Arrays

description: The combined processes of anodization and electrodeposition lead to highly ordered arrays of cylindrical nanowires. This template-based self-assembly fabrication method yields nanowires embedded in alumina. Commonly, chemical etching is used to remove the alumina and free the nanowires. However, it has been experimentally observed during the etching process that the nanowires tend to form clumps. In this work, the nanowires are modeled as elastic rods subject to surface interaction forces. The dynamics of the model give rise to the aforementioned clumping behavior which is studied via percolation theory. This work finds that percolation takes place with probability $P \sim (t-t_c)^x$, where the exponent $x = 2.8$ and $t_c$ is the time at which percolation takes place. The critical exponents which entirely determine the system are found to be for (dimension) $d = 2$, $β= 2.1, γ= 0.57, Δ= 2.7, α= -2.8, ν= 2.4,$ and $δ= 1.3$.

description: Cluster observations in the near-Earth magnetotail have shown that sometimes the current sheet is bifurcated, i.e. it is divided in two layers. The influence of magnetic turbulence on ion motion in this region is investigated by numerical simulation, taking into account the presence of both protons and oxygen ions. The magnetotail current sheet is modeled as a magnetic field reversal with a normal magnetic field component $B_n$, plus a three-dimensional spectrum of magnetic fluctuations $δ{\bf B}$, which represents the observed magnetic turbulence. The dawn-dusk electric field E$_y$ is also included. A test particle simulation is performed using different values of $δ{\bf B}$, E$_y$ and injecting two different species of particles, O$^+$ ions and protons. O$^+$ ions can support the formation of a double current layer both in the absence and for large values of magnetic fluctuations ($δB/B_0 = 0.0$ and $δB/B_0 \geq 0.4$, where B$_0$ is the constant magnetic field in the magnetospheric lobes).

description: We present a type-III version of inverse seesaw or, equivalently an inverse version of type-III seesaw. Naturally small neutrino masses arise at low-scale from the exchange of neutral fermions transforming as hyperchargeless SU(2) triplets. In order to implement tri-bimaximal lepton mixing we supplement the minimal SU(3)xSU(2)xU(1) gauge symmetry with an A4-based flavor symmetry. Our scenario induces lepton flavour violating (LFV) three body decays that can proceed at the tree level, while radiative li to lj gamma decays and mu-e conversion in nuclei are also expected to be sizeable. LFV decays are related by the underlying flavor symmetry and the new fermions are also expected to be accessible for study at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).

Nonequilibrium fluctuation dissipation relations of interacting Brownian particles driven by shear

Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Soft Condensed Matter (cond-mat.soft)

description: We present a detailed analysis of the fluctuation dissipation theorem (FDT) close to the glass transition in colloidal suspensions under steady shear using mode coupling approximations. Starting point is the many-particle Smoluchowski equation. Under shear, detailed balance is broken and the response functions in the stationary state are smaller at long times than estimated from the equilibrium FDT. An asymptotically constant relation connects response and fluctuations during the shear driven decay, restoring the form of the FDT with, however, a ratio different from the equilibrium one. At short times, the equilibrium FDT holds. We follow two independent approaches whose results are in qualitative agreement. To discuss the derived fluctuation dissipation ratios, we show an exact reformulation of the susceptibility which contains not the full Smoluchowski operator as in equilibrium, but only its well defined Hermitian part. This Hermitian part can be interpreted as governing the dynamics in the frame comoving with the probability current. We present a simple toy model which illustrates the FDT violation in the sheared colloidal system.

The effect of space at constant densities on growth in a cichlid Aequidens pulcher Gill
Creators: name: Minchin, J. Daniel DeC. E.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The effect of impoundment size on fish has been investigated. Investigators have reported that greatest growth has taken place in large in some instances and in small impoundments in others. The effect of varying space on the cichlid Aequidens pulcher Gill, was examined in four tanks of equal volume. Each tank was divided into two replicates in the compartment ratios 9:3:1 and each contained 90:30:10 fish respectively. A higher density tank had twice the fish number in all compartments and had lowest growth due to either reduced oxygen availability, increased biomass, increase in activity or stress due to small nearest neighbour distances. Fish in a tank with mirrors on all compartment walls had a reduced growth possibly due to visual stress compared to a control lacking mirrors. A further tank had twice the surface area of the control, a greater distance between nearest neighbours and greatest fish growth. Growth was significantly greater, at the 95 percent confidence limit, in all small compartments of tanks and activity was significantly greater in large compartments. In an identical treatment design to that of the control fish were shown to lose weight while being starved. The fish in the larger compartments were more active and lost most weight. A strong suggestion that the lower growth rate in large compartments was due to greater activity, possibly this was related to the total available swimming space per fish. Fish aggression was greatest in small compartments and decreased over time, possibly as a result of conditioning.

description: We calculate the drag force on a heavy quark hit by a shock wave, thus generalizing the strongly coupled AdS/CFT heavy quark drag calculations to both hot and cold nuclear matter. The derivation employs the trailing string configuration, similar to that used in the literature for a quark moving through a thermal medium, though in the shock metric the string profile is described by a much simpler analytic function. Our expression for the drag depends on the typical transverse momentum scale of the matter in the shock. For a thermal medium this scale becomes proportional to the temperature, making our drag coefficient and momentum limit of applicability identical to those found previously. As the shock wave can be composed of either thermalized or non-thermalized media, our derivation extends the existing drag calculations to the case of arbitrarily distributed matter.

Situating the self in spaces of sorrow: an analysis of Instagram self-representations at the 9/11 Memorial

description: If you visited New York City’s 9/11 Memorial, would you take a selfie? Instagram is frequently used to share experiences at Ground Zero, a popular tourist destination commemorating those who lost their lives in the 9/11 terror attack. Often accompanied by emotional written reflections, the visually striking features of the 9/11 Memorial appear prominently across amateur photography and videography shared to Instagram. However, despite personal photography being permitted in visitor guidelines, self-portraits taken at the 9/11 Memorial and shared online are widely considered to be disrespectful. Commentators seek out the most polarising examples to shame visitors in news and opinion articles, rather than considering them as part of a broader, nuanced act of witnessing that allows people to connect to places of trauma. Through a content analysis of over 500 Instagram posts shared under the 9/11 World Trade Center (WTC) Memorial and Museum geo-tag in 2022, this thesis maps the visual and written patterns that form this complex mode of representation.Building upon the growing fields of self-representation and memorial scholarship, I assert that videos, photographs and Instagram carousels constitute a representation of the self. By doing so, this thesis challenges reductive narratives which focus only on the selfie or self-portrait, when in fact these categories only constitute 10% of 9/11 Memorial geo-tag content. This holistic approach forms part of platform vernacular, a theoretical framework used widely in Instagram research that considers the influence of platform-specific technical affordances and their everyday uses. However, the fraught political history of the 9/11 Memorial site complicates this reading. In dialogue with key debates across visual culture, photography, memorial and memory studies, this thesis also considers wider cultural factors such as the American exceptionalism narrative that consciously and unconsciously shapes 9/11 Memorial self-representations.

description: We exploit theoretically the occurrence and tunability of photonic Bloch oscillations (PBOs) in one-dimensional photonic crystals (PCs) containing nonlinear composites. Because of the enhanced third-order nonlinearity (Kerr type nonlinearity) of composites, photons undergo oscillations inside tilted photonic bands, which are achieved by the application of graded external pump electric fields on such PCs, varying along the direction perpendicular to the surface of layers. The tunability of PBOs (including amplitude and period) is readily achieved by changing the field gradient. With an appropriate graded pump AC or DC electric field, terahertz PBOs can appear and cover a terahertz band in electromagnetic spectrum.

description: This resource is a single blog post created as part of the Day of Archaeology initiative. The Day of Archaeology project aimed to provide a window into the daily lives of archaeologists from all over the world. The project asked people working, studying or volunteering in the archaeological world to participate in a 'Day of Archaeology' each year by recording their day and sharing it through text, images or video on the Day of Archaeology blog.
The project asked anyone with a personal, professional or voluntary interest in archaeology to get involved, and help highlight the reasons why archaeology is vital to protect the past and inform our futures. The resulting Day of Archaeology project archive demonstrates the wide variety of work the archaeological profession undertakes day-to-day across the globe, and helps to raise public awareness of the relevance and importance of archaeology to the modern world.
The first ever Day of Archaeology was held in 2011 and, since then, the project had thousands of archaeologists take part in the event, from those working in the field through to specialists working in laboratories and behind computers. The last Day of Archaeology was on Friday 28th July 2017.

description: The problem of missing link prediction in complex networks has attracted much attention recently. Two difficulties in link prediction are the sparsity and huge size of the target networks. Therefore, the design of an efficient and effective method is of both theoretical interests and practical significance. In this Letter, we proposed a method based on local random walk, which can give competitively good prediction or even better prediction than other random-walk-based methods while has a lower computational complexity.

description: The origin of stochastic fluctuations in gene expression has received considerable attention recently. Fluctuations in gene expression are particularly pronounced in cellular systems because of the small copy number of species undergoing transitions between discrete chemical states and the small size of biological compartments. In this paper, we propose a stochastic model for gene expression regulation including several binding sites, considering elementary reactions only. The model is used to investigate the role of cooperativity on the intrinsic fluctuations of gene expression, by means of master equation formalism. We found that the Hill coefficient and the level of noise increases as the interaction energy between activators increases. Additionally, we show that the model allows to distinguish between two cooperative binding mechanisms.

Molecular assessment of resistance to amoebic gill disease

description: Amoebic gill disease (AGD) is the most significant health issue affecting the culture of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) in Tasmania, Australia. Recent research has suggested that heritable variation in AGD resistance exists within the Tasmanian Atlantic salmon population. Subsequently, enhancing this resistance through selective breeding has become a major research focus in Tasmania. The mechanisms controlling this commercially important trait remain poorly understood. To this end, an investigation of the molecular mechanisms controlling AGD resistance was conducted. Due to their high polymorphism and important immune function genes of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) - known as the MH genes in Atlantic salmon - represent some of the best candidate loci with a possible influence upon AGD resistance. With this in mind, the amount of MH variation and its association with resistance to AGD was investigated. In contrast to what has been previously reported at non-coding microsatellite loci, a high level of MH class II diversity has been maintained in the Australian Atlantic salmon population compared to the ancestral population. The use of an AGD challenge test with subsequent MH genotyping demonstrated that the presence of one MH class II alpha allele known as Sasa-DAA-3UTR 239 was significantly associated with reduced disease severity. Individuals containing a copy of this allele had 4.0% less gill filaments infected by AGD compared to individuals without this allele. Next utilising a cDNA microarray with real-time PCR verification the transcriptional changes associated with AGD and AGD resistance were investigated. Comparing the gene expression profiles within the gill, liver and anterior kidney between naive and AGD affected (at 19 days post inoculation) Atlantic salmon suggests the host response to AGD upon acute first infection is largely suppressive and localised to the site of infection, the gill. Next, the gill transcriptome response between Atlantic salmon deemed putatively resistant and putatively susceptible to AGD following chronic natural infection was investigated. Results suggested that compared to the susceptible individuals, Atlantic salmon resistant to AGD demonstrate an up-regulation of adaptive immune genes and negative regulators of the cycle cell. Further characterisation of the full length mRNA sequence and expression distribution of one unknown transcript which was significantly up-regulated in both previous microarray experiments was investigated. This research has provided the first molecular assessment of resistance to AGD in Atlantic salmon. The implications of this research in terms of the understanding of the molecular mechanisms of AGD resistance and the ultimate development of genetic markers linked to resistance will be considered.

description: Conformational energies of n-butane, n-pentane, and n-hexane have been calculated at the CCSD(T) level and at or near the basis set limit. Post-CCSD(T) contribution were considered and found to be unimportant. The data thus obtained were used to assess the performance of a variety of density functional methods. Double-hybrid functionals like B2GP-PLYP and B2K-PLYP, especially with a small Grimme-type empirical dispersion correction, are capable of rendering conformational energies of CCSD(T) quality. These were then used as a `secondary standard' for a larger sample of alkanes, including isopentane and the branched hexanes as well as key isomers of heptane and octane. Popular DFT functionals like B3LYP, B3PW91, BLYP, PBE, and PBE0 tend to overestimate conformer energies without dispersion correction, while the M06 family severely underestimates GG interaction energies. Grimme-type dispersion corrections for these overcorrect and lead to qualitatively wrong conformer orderings. All of these functionals also exhibit deficiencies in the conformer geometries, particularly the backbone torsion angles. The PW6B95 and, to a lesser extent, BMK functionals are relatively free of these deficiencies. Performance of these methods is further investigated to derive conformer ensemble corrections to the enthalpy function, $H_{298}-H_0$, and the Gibbs energy function, ${\rm gef}(T)\equiv - [G(T)-H_0]/T$, of these alkanes. While $H_{298}-H_0$ is only moderately sensitive to the level of theory, ${\rm gef}(T)$ exhibits more pronounced sensitivity. Once again, double hybrids acquit themselves very well.
