description: The New Horizons mission has provided resolved measurements of Pluto's moons Styx, Nix, Kerberos, and Hydra. All four are small, with equivalent spherical diameters of $\approx$40 km for Nix and Hydra and ~10 km for Styx and Kerberos. They are also highly elongated, with maximum to minimum axis ratios of $\approx$2. All four moons have high albedos ( $\approx$50-90 %) suggestive of a water-ice surface composition. Crater densities on Nix and Hydra imply surface ages $\gtrsim$ 4 Ga. The small moons rotate much faster than synchronous, with rotational poles clustered nearly orthogonal to the common pole directions of Pluto and Charon. These results reinforce the hypothesis that the small moons formed in the aftermath of a collision that produced the Pluto-Charon binary.

title: Action research and consultation to promote inclusive practices
Creators: name: Szucs, Brent

Subjects: subject: Inclusive education

description: A fundamental tenant of inclusive education is that students with exceptionalities have the right to pursue a quality education with supports in a general classroom setting; it promotes diversity, cooperation, and acceptance amongst all students. While Canada has progressed in promoting communities of diverse learners in schools and made advancements in policy, the shift has not been consistent throughout the country. Policies and practices vary from province to province, but beyond this individual schools and communities face a myriad of challenges due to a number of barriers including isolation, personnel, funding, and specialist supports. Schools lacking qualified special education personnel, experienced staff, access to specialists, or facing other constraints must be creative in meeting the needs of their students with disabilities. Small, rural and First Nations schools are some of the most affected by this. Developing capacity within these schools is essential. Models such as action research and directed consultation serve as a means to that end as they enable schools and educators to address issues of interest and concern, with regard to their unique contexts. Through supporting the professional development of educators, the needs of students with exceptionalities may be addressed and their right for inclusion promoted.

description: We present a brief description of noncompactified higher-dimensional theories from the perspective of general relativity. More concretely, the Space-Time-Matter theory, or Induced Matter theory, and the reduction procedure used to construct the modified Brans-Dicke theory and the modified Sáez-Ballester theory are briefly explained. Finally, we apply the latter to the Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) cosmological models in arbitrary dimensions and analyze the corresponding solutions.

description: We investigate a way of imposing simplicity constraints in a holomorphic Spin Foam model that we recently introduced. Rather than imposing the constraints on the boundary spin network, as is usually done, one can impose the constraints directly on the Spin Foam propagator. We find that the two approaches have the same leading asymptotic behaviour, with differences appearing at higher order. This allows us to obtain a model that greatly simplifies calculations, but still has Regge Calculus as its semi-classical limit.

title: Understanding and overcoming the cultural and ethnic stigma of an Autism/ASD diagnosis

Subjects: subject: Autism spectrum disorders

description: In Canada, we are surrounded by an abundance of cultures and a variance of ethnic origins, which is why it is important for educators to be culturally sensitive when it comes to Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and its diagnosis. The way that every culture handles an ASD diagnosis can be vastly different and this can be because one’s cultural or ethnic background, their educational background, the amount of access they have to information about ASD, how well they have been exposed to ASD in their own lives, etc. In Canada, many special education teachers are required to have a specific number of hours and/or courses on special education training - this is not a requirement in other countries and can cause an increase in frustration and a lack of overall understanding of why children with ASD act the way they do. With more knowledge and more hours of working with children with ASD, educators showed an increase in patience, understanding, and coping strategies to deal with their abnormal behaviours. In knowing this, it should not be surprising that parents and families who emigrate here from other countries do not have the same level of understanding about ASD as parents who are from North America. These parents will not have much understanding of how to help their child succeed academically and socially like they would here in North America. This project contains information about ASD and information specifically for parents, caregivers, and families of various cultural and ethnic backgrounds about cultural and ethnic stigma, under-representation, and cultural sensitivity tips. The main goals of this website and pamphlet is to relay an abundance of information in a culturally sensitive manner that is clear and concise and easy for the parents and family members to understand.

description: The New Horizons spacecraft mapped colors and infrared spectra across the encounter hemispheres of Pluto and Charon. The volatile ices CH$_4$, CO, and N$_2$, that dominate Pluto's surface, have complicated spatial distributions resulting from sublimation, condensation, and glacial flow acting over seasonal and geological timescales. Pluto's H$_2$O ice "bedrock" is also mapped, with isolated outcrops occurring in a variety of settings. Pluto's surface exhibits complex regional color diversity associated with its distinct provinces. Charon's color pattern is simpler, dominated by neutral low latitudes and a reddish northern polar region. Charon near infrared spectra reveal highly localized areas with strong NH$_3$ absorption tied to small craters with relatively fresh-appearing impact ejecta.

title: Supporting students with exceptionalities through outdoor learning
Creators: name: Wood, Flora

Subjects: subject: Outdoor education

description: The purpose of this study was to answer the research question: How can we maximize the benefits of outdoor education for supporting students with exceptionalities in our school district? A scan of the existing literature reveals that outdoor learning helps students in developing self-regulation strategies, promotes stronger mental health, and provides improved opportunities for students to interact with peers in a positive way. Using Appreciative Inquiry as a framework with the dual purpose of building a community of practice and better understanding their experiences with outdoor learning, teachers in a Vancouver Island school district met for a focus group discussion and suggested strategies for teaching students with exceptionalities in an outdoor setting. The teachers also discussed strategies for finding support for taking their classes outside. While participants in this study found benefits for students learning in outdoor settings, suggestions were made for the support that is still needed to promote inclusive outdoor education in their district.

title: Inclusive learning teachers as co-teachers: improving planning and implementation for purposeful co-instruction in inclusive classrooms
Creators: name: Johnson, Amanda
Publisher: name: Electronic version published by Vancouver Island University
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Teaching teams

description: Alternate models of service delivery in Special Education can be used to support students with diverse needs within inclusive classrooms. Co-teaching is a service delivery model where generalist teachers and special education teachers work together in a collaborative partnership to co-plan, co-instruct, and co-assess students within the same physical space. Each of these three factors is considered as instrumental for effective co-teaching to occur. There are six coteaching models that outline the placement or role of each teacher and the arrangement of students. The co-teaching models can be utilized to organize students strategically into heterogeneous or homogeneous groups so that differentiated instruction may be delivered more successfully to meet the needs of all students including those with special needs. This self-study investigates how co-teaching may be used to improve special education service delivery in inclusive primary classrooms. As part of this research, the frequency of use of the co-teaching models was also explored. The collaborative nature of co-teaching can be beneficial to the professional growth of teachers as well as to the learning of students when planning is shared and the model is implemented well. For true inclusion to occur during co-taught lessons, there must be purposeful organization, instruction, adaptations and supports for students with complex special needs to be successful. Furthermore, achieving successful co-teaching demands that the necessary factors of co-planning, co-instructing and co-assessing are present. Given the potentially demanding roles of special education teachers, and for co-teaching to be effective, consideration must be given to teacher compatibility, ideal scheduling, and optimal models service delivery to meet the diverse needs of students.
Apokalyptische Gestalt oder „Feind Russlands“?

Publisher: name: Leipziger Universitätsverlag
Year: 2012

description: This article is devoted to “sacralized” imaginations of Napoleon and his army as enemies as they appear in Russian caricatures of 1812. It consists of three parts: the first one deals with the images of the “holy war,” Napoleon, and France in Russian official political manifestos and Church sermons from the beginning of the 19th century. The second part examines West European “demonic” images of the French Emperor. Finally, the third part explores whether Russian caricature interpreted the war of 1812 as an event in the history of Christian salvation. The analysis suggests that Russian caricaturists mostly ignored the “demonized” images of Napoleon and his army. They predominantly concentrated on depicting heroic fights of the common people with the French invaders. The reasons for this astonishing lack of Napoleon-Antichrist-images can be explained by both a new interest in „the Russian people“ and old traditions of the Russian Orthodox iconography which did not provide frightening devil images either.

description: In a recent work, we studied a novel precoding design for cell-free networks called team minimum mean-square error (TMMSE) precoding, which rigorously generalizes centralized MMSE precoding to distributed operations based on transmitter-specific channel state information (CSI). Despite its flexibility in handling different cooperation regimes at the CSI sharing level, TMMSE precoding assumes network-wide sharing of the data bearing signals, and hence it is inherently not scalable. In this work, inspired by recent advances on scalable cell-free architectures based on user-centric network clustering techniques, we address this issue by proposing a novel version of the TMMSE precoding design covering partial message sharing. The obtained framework is then successfully applied to derive a variety of novel, optimal, and efficient precoding schemes for a user-centric cell-free network deployed using multiple radio stripes. Numerical simulations of a typical industrial internet-of-things scenario corroborate the gains of TMMSE precoding over competing schemes in terms of spectral efficiency under different power constraints. Although presented in the context of downlink precoding, the results of this paper may be applied also on the uplink.

description: Der Beitrag untersucht englische und russische Karikaturen aus der napoleonischen Ära. Im Vordergrund stehen Zeichnungen von George Cruikshank (1792–1878) und Ivan Terebenev (1780–1815). 1812 markierte für beide den Beginn ihrer Laufbahn als Karikaturisten. Terebenev zeigte sich inspiriert von englischen Karikaturen des 18. Jhs und wandte sich diesem Genre zu, um einen russischen Patriotismus zu motivieren. Noch im Jahr 1812 kaufte Cruikshank Terebenevs anti-napoleonische Karikaturen, zeichnete sie nach und verkaufte sie mit englischen Übersetzungen. Die Tatsache, dass ein englischer und ein russischer Künstler die gleichen visuellen Mittel und Motive anwenden konnten, wenn sie sich mit dem Geschehen von 1812 auseinandersetzten, weist darauf hin, dass die nationalen Diskurse in England und Russland einander ähnelten. Der Beitrag untersucht diese Ähnlichkeiten und stellt die Frage, welche Schlussfolgerungen sich daraus für die Entstehung moderner Nationen ergeben, wie diese mit der Geburt der politischen Karikatur zusammenhängt und welche transnationalen Verbindungen um 1812 in der europäischen Karikatur zu erkennen sind.

Subjects: subject: Self-efficacy--India

description: The goal of this study was to investigate how special educators in India, perceive their self-efficacy. The study was an anonymous where the participants completed a Teachers’ self-efficacy assessment form and engaged in a semi-structured interview. The results from the study indicated that the special-educators in India have a high sense of self-efficacy, along with showing competence in managing classroom, student management and providing instruction while they work with children with special needs. Although there was evidence of lower self-efficacy beliefs in managing difficult student behaviors, which were found to be a result of lack of experience. A point of significance is that limited research emphasises special educators’ perceptions of their self-efficacy. One major limitations for the study was a small sample size. Implications of the findings are discussed.

description: As one of the most intriguing intrinsic properties of quantum world, quantum superposition provokes great interests in its own generation. Oszmaniec [Phys. Rev. Lett. 116, 110403 (2016)] have proven that though a universal quantum machine that creates superposition of arbitrary two unknown states is physically impossible, a probabilistic protocol exists in the case of two input states have nonzero overlaps with the referential state. Here we report a heralded quantum machine realizing superposition of arbitrary two unknown photonic qubits as long as they have nonzero overlaps with the horizontal polarization state $|H\rangle$. A total of 11 different qubit pairs are chosen to test this protocol by comparing the reconstructed output state with theoretical expected superposition of input states. We obtain the average fidelity as high as 0.99, which shows the excellent reliability of our realization. This realization not only deepens our understanding of quantum superposition but also has significant applications in quantum information and quantum computation, e.g., generating non-classical states in the context of quantum optics and realizing information compression by coherent superposition of results of independent runs of subroutines in a quantum computation.

Considering that different detectors are scattered in a large area, the trigger system is designed based on a master-slave structure and fiber-based serial data transmission technique. The trigger logic is organized in hierarchies, and flexible reconfiguration of the trigger function is achieved based on command register access or overall field-programmable gate array (FPGA) logic on-line reconfiguration controlled by remote computers. We also conducted tests to confirm the function of the trigger electronics, and the results indicate that this trigger system works well.

„Wie schwer war dieses Jahr“ –
Creators: name: Winkler, Martina
Publisher: name: Leipziger Universitätsverlag
Year: 2012

description: The article is based on the premise that in many Russian memoirs, the loss of property during the events of 1812 appears in more prominent and dramatic ways than, for instance, physical violence. This suggests not only a certain modesty in the narratives, but also a strong concept of ownership and property. It also situates 1812 within the Russian process of propertization. In the memoirs, the experience of losing property is presented mostly as a problem of forfeited traditions and as emotional loss rather than as pure material damage. The analysis of these narratives of loss also leads to the question of how “the enemy” was described: on the one hand, members of the Grande Armée were perceived not only as adversaries, but also as preservers of justice. Russian peasants, on the other, could act either as allies within the emerging national community or as troublemakers who vandalized the nobility´s rightful property and disrupted the social order.

Die politische Bedeutung von „Polizeihilfe“ in Afghanistan zwischen den fünfziger und siebziger Jahren des 20. Jahrhunderts

Year: 2012

description: The Political Meaning of “Police Assistance” in Afghanistan between the 1950s and 1970s Following World War II, the Afghan government asked the Federal republic of Germany for German police advisors, initiating the longest period of German-Afghan “technical collaboration” within the field of police assistance. This period came to an end in the aftermath of Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979. Based on archival resources from the Political Archive of the Federal foreign Office, this article analysis the performative construction of German police assistance for the period between 1952 and 1979 and discusses this type of “technical collaboration” by drawing on analytical insights from the field of “translation studies”. It is argued that the political meaning of police assistance was more based upon abstract theoretical assumptions regarding development and social transformations processes than on an evaluation of the content, objectives and impact of this form of technical collaboration.

Die Grenzen liberaler Intervention:
Creators: name: Veit, Alex
Publisher: name: Leipziger Universitätsverlag
Year: 2012

description: International interventions, whose aim is the fostering of peace and state building in conflict zones, are guided by ideas of a liberal police governmentality. However, in order to pursue their peace building and state building agendas on the ground, intervening actors depend upon the collaboration with local institutions. When such intermediaries of transnational rule do not share the agenda of liberal interventionism, intervening actors are confronted with the “paradox of intermediary rule”. By offering an analysis of the reform of the Congolese army in the district Ituri (Democratic Republic of Congo), this article demonstrates that the joint Peace Enforcement by international actors and the local army did not lead to the emergence of a peaceful liberal order. Instead, because of the dependence of international actors form local institutions (and interests), the intervening forces became accomplices in the (re-)production of an overly illiberal order of violence, indicating how the implementation of an international liberal police governmentality encountered its limits in the paradoxical interactions between national and international actors.

We prove that when the damping is effective, the solution is approximated by that of the corresponding heat equation as time tends to infinity. Our proof is based on semigroup estimates for the corresponding heat equation and weighted energy estimates for the damped wave equation. The optimality of the decay late for solutions is also established.

description: (Post-)Colonial Governance in an Imperial Metropolis: The Police Intendancy of Rio de Janeiro, 1808–1821 The transfer of the Portuguese Court to Brazil in 1807/1808 signaled the emergence of a new spatio-political order within the Portuguese Empire. This transfer implied that the imperial center shifted from Lisbon to Rio de Janeiro, transforming the city within a couple of years from a “typical” colonial city into a “tropical Versaille.” Through an analysis of the city’s Police Intendancy, an institution that substantially shaped this “metropolization process” (Schultz), and by drawing on archival police documents, this article offers an analysis of the changing patterns of governance and rule that accompanied this transition process in Rio de Janeiro. After locating the Police Intendancy within the overall workings of imperial governmentality, the article addressed the following questions: Were local authorities consciously aware that colonial practices had to be changed after the transfer of the Court? Which problems and paradoxes accompanied the emergence of new technologies of power that accompanied the shift from a colonial to a metropolitan, and thus post-colonial, space?

description: Policing the Periphery – Policing, Violence and State Formation in Colonial South Carolina This article analyses the transfer of policing and legal structures from England to colonial South Carolina. Situated at the periphery of the British Empire, South Carolina was the only plantation colony in North America with a majority “black” population and its economic, social, geographic and demographic structures differed significantly from those in England. Such differences shaped the reception and adaption processes that shaped the transfer of legal and policing structure from England to the North American colonial context, thereby shaping local governance structures and supplanting them with informal modes of coercion-backed political ordering. In light of these observations, the article to critically interrogates dominant “top down” approaches on the history of state formation by arguing that colonial state formation was an overly negotiated and “bottom up” process, which was decisively shaped by the periphery.

description: We report the first successful simulation of spontaneous formation of surface magnetic structures from a large-scale dynamo by strongly-stratified thermal convection in Cartesian geometry. The large-scale dynamo observed in our strongly-stratified model has physical properties similar to those in earlier weakly-stratified convective dynamo simulations, indicating that the $α^2$-type mechanism is responsible for it. Additionally to the large-scale dynamo, we find that large-scale structures of the vertical magnetic field are spontaneously formed in the convection zone surface only for the case of strongly-stratified atmosphere. The organization of the vertical magnetic field proceeds in the upper convection zone within tens of convective turn-over time and band-like bipolar structures are recurrently-appeared in the dynamo-saturated stage. We examine possibilities of several candidates as the origin of the surface magnetic structure formation, and then suggest the existence of an as-yet-unknown mechanism for the self-organization of the large-scale magnetic structure, which should be inherent in the strongly-stratified convective atmosphere.

description: A new class of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras given a name of Lax operator algebras, and the related unifying approach to finite-dimensional integrable systems with spectral parameter on a Riemann surface, such as Calogero--Moser and Hitchin systems, are presented. In particular, our approach includes (the non-twisted) Kac--Moody algebras and integrable systems with rational spectral parameter. The presentation is based on the quite simple ideas related to gradings of semisimple Lie algebras, and their interaction with the Riemann--Roch theorem. The basic properties of the Lax operator algebras, as well as the basic facts of the theory of integrable systems in question, are treated (and proven) from this general point of view, in particular existence of commutative hierarchies and their Hamiltonian properties. We conclude with an application of the Lax operator algebras to prequantization of finite-dimensional integrable systems.

Subjects: subject: Social phobia--India

description: Social anxiety disorder (SAD)is far beyond typical shyness or fear to attempt any uncomfortable social situation; it creates intense fear about being scrutinized or embarrassed regarding that particular exposure. This project designs a website that includesinformation regarding social anxiety, its impact, and provides otherhelpful resources related to classroom awareness to inform Indian school teachers about SAD. Teacher’s attitudes towards student in the classroom plays a crucial role in order to overcome any easy or difficult hurdles in the child’s learning phase. This project plans to help teachers tackle or understand a student’s difficult situation with respect to SAD in a classroom which will easily amelioratethe future negative impact on that particular child’s life. The purpose of this project is to increase awareness about SAD, its impacts, and various intervention and support for school teachers in India and provide a resource for them to learn about it, so no children go un-helped.
Entropy of Bernoulli convolutions and uniform exponential growth for linear groups

description: The exponential growth rate of non polynomially growing subgroups of $GL_d$ is conjectured to admit a uniform lower bound. This is known for non-amenable subgroups, while for amenable subgroups it is known to imply the Lehmer conjecture from number theory. In this note, we show that it is equivalent to the Lehmer conjecture. This is done by establishing a lower bound for the entropy of the random walk on the semigroup generated by the maps $x\mapsto λ\cdot x\pm 1$, where $λ$ is an algebraic number. We give a bound in terms of the Mahler measure of $λ$. We also derive a bound on the dimension of Bernoulli convolutions.
description: Added the requirement to Remark 6 that lambda is a unit. This is relevant only in the case of generalised Bernoulli convolutions, when the coefficients are not +/-1. Final accepted version. To appear in J. Anal. Math. 33 pages
Quantum Transport of Dirac fermions in graphene with a spatially varying Rashba spin-orbit coupling

description: We theoretically study electronic transport through a region with inhomogeneous Rashba spin-orbit (RSO) coupling placed between two normal regions in a monolayer graphene. The inhomogeneous RSO region is characterized by linearly varying RSO strength within its borders and constant RSO strength in the central region. We calculate the transmission properties within the transfer matrix approach. It is shown that the amplitude of conductance oscillations reduces and at the same time the magnitude of conductance increases with increasing border thickness. We also investigate how the Fano factor can be modified by the border thickness of RSO region.

Additive noise destroys the random attractor close to bifurcation

description: We provide an example for stabilization by noise. Our approach does not rely on monotonicity arguments due to the presence of higher order differential operators or mixing properties of the system as the noise might be highly degenerate. In the examples a scalar additive noise destroys a high-dimensional random attractor of a PDE on an unbounded domain. In the presence of small noise close to bifurcation all trajectories converge to a single stationary solution.

description: This article is an arts-based, autoethnographic account of the deep learning experience of launching an innovative art therapy text, Art Therapy in Australia: Taking a Postcolonial, Aesthetic Turn, for two different Australian contexts and audiences: Indigenous colleagues on Wathaurong country at the Institute of Koorie Education (IKE), Deakin University, and the art therapy community on Darug country at Western Sydney University. This article extends the (post)colonial and aesthetic concerns of the book as we reflect on and respond with artmaking and writing to an immersive ten-day retreat with Indigenous colleagues at IKE and seek to respectfully engage with First Nation ways and knowledges. The accounts offered here become a microcosm of the problematics of ethically encountering difference, in a landscape still shadowed by colonial violence.

description: Themis is an old and statistically robust asteroid family populating the outer main belt, and resulting from a catastrophic collision that took place 2.5$\pm$1.0 Gyr ago. Within the old Themis family a young sub-family, Beagle, formed less than 10 Myr ago, has been identified. We present the results of a spectroscopic survey in the visible and near infrared range of 22 Themis and 8 Beagle families members. The Themis members investigated exhibit a wide range of spectral behaviors, while the younger Beagle family members look spectrally bluer with a smaller spectral slope variability. The best meteorite spectral analogues found for both Themis and Beagle families members are carbonaceous chondrites having experienced different degrees of aqueous alteration, prevalently CM2 but also CV3 and CI, and some of them are chondrite samples being unusual or heated. We extended the spectral analysis including the data available in the literature on Themis and Beagle families members, and we looked for correlations between spectral behavior and physical parameters using the albedo and size values derived from the WISE data. The analysis of this larger sample confirm the spectral diversity within the Themis family and that Beagle members tend to be bluer and to have an higher albedo. The differences between the two family may be partially explained by space weathering processes, which act on these primitive surfaces in a similar way than on S-type asteroids, i.e. producing reddening and darkening. However we see several Themis members having albedos and spectral slopes similar to the young Beagle members. Alternative scenarios are proposed including heterogeneity in the parent body having a compositional gradient with depth, and/or the survival of projectile fragments having a different composition than the parent body.

Spectral Houses, the Analyst’s Drawings: Postscript to the Dying Patient in Psychotherapy
Creators: name: Schaverien, Joy
Publisher: name: Art Therapy Online
Year: 2020

description: This article is written in response to a timely request from the editors of ATOL to write for the 10thAnniversary edition. It was a very encouraging request inviting thoughts about the past 10 years and it came at a time when I was just completing the new edition of my bookThe Dying Patient in Psychotherapy. In 2002 I published an account of my work in analysis with a dying man and now, in 2020, a new edition of this book is to be published by Routledge. Whilst planning the second edition I remembered that I had made some drawings during the process of the work with this patient. I searched them out and wrote a chapter based on them, with a view to publishing it in the book. However my own pictures just did not seem to fit anywhere within the context of the book and so I discarded the chapter. At the point that I was thinking the chapter was redundant the request from the editors of ATOL came. So this article is based on that chapter. It is presented here as both, a postscript to the new edition of the book, and as a stand-alone article in celebration of ATOL.

description: A modified gravity theory with $f(R)=R^2$ coupled to a dark energy lagrangian $L=-V(ϕ)F(X)$ , $X=\nabla_μϕ\nabla^μϕ$, gives plausible cosmological scenarios when the modified Friedman equations are solved subject to the scaling relation $X (\frac{dF}{dX})^{2}=Ca(t)^{-6}$. This relation is already known to be valid, for constant potential $V(ϕ)$, when $L$ is coupled to Einstein gravity. $ϕ$ is the k-essence scalar field and $a(t)$ is the scale factor. The various scenarios are: (1) Radiation dominated Ricci flat universe with deceleration parameter $Q=1$. The solution for $ϕ$ is an inflaton field for small times. (2) $Q$ is always negative and we have accelerated expansion of the universe right from the beginning of time and $ϕ$ is an inflaton for small times. (3)The deceleration parameter $Q= -5$, i.e. we have an accelerated expansion of the universe. $ϕ$ is an inflaton for small times.(4)A generalisation to $f(R)= R^n$ shows that whenever $n > 1.780$ or $n < - 0.280$ , $Q$ will be negative and we will have accelerated expansion of the universe. At small times $ϕ$ is again an inflaton.

Australian motor vehicle emissions policy, 1970-96: a case of non-market failure
Creators: name: Grenning, Mark
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: This is not intended to be the standard type of economics thesis. It examines a public policy - Australian motor vehicle emissions policy - from a public policy perspective. Public policy inevitably involves disciplines wider than pure economics, and emissions policy is no different. These disciplines included chemistry, medicine, engineering, administration and politics. However, the discussion of the contributions these other disciplines make is not an end in itself but a contribution to my overall aim of answering an economic question - is the policy efficient? The cost of this public policy approach is that the thesis is longer than normal. The length has also been influenced by this thesis being the first comprehensive evaluation of the policy, so I had to give you a lot of history which is presently not readily available. [...]
