description: Crackling noise is observed in many disordered non-equilibrium systems in response to slowly changing external conditions. Examples range from Barkhausen noise in magnets to acoustic emission in martensites to earthquakes. Using the non-equilibrium random field Ising model, we derive universal scaling predictions for the dependence of the associated power spectra on the disorder and field sweep rate, near an underlying disorder-induced non-equilibrium critical point. Our theory applies to certain systems in which the crackling noise results from avalanche-like response to a (slowly) increasing external driving force, and is characterized by a broad power law scaling regime of the power spectra. We compute the critical exponents and discuss the relevance of the results to experiments.

description: We argue that the distribution of hadrons near the longitudinal light-cone in central high-energy pA collisions is computable in weak coupling QCD. This is because the density of gluons per unit transverse area in the dense target at saturation provides an intrinsic semi-hard momentum scale, Qs. We predict that the longitudinal distribution of (anti-)baryons and mesons steepens with increasing energy and atomic number of the target, and that the transverse momentum distribution broadens. We show that the evolution of high moments of the longitudinal net baryon distribution with Qs is determined by the anomalous dimension gamma_qq.

description: By using anholonomic frames in (pseudo) Riemannian spaces we define anisotropic extensions of Euclidean Taub-NUT spaces. With respect to coordinate frames such spaces are described by off-diagonal metrics which could be diagonalized by corresponding anholonomic transforms. We define the conditions when the 5D vacuum Einstein equations have as solutions anisotropic Taub-NUT spaces. The generalized Killing equations for the configuration space of anisotropically spinning particles (anisotropic spinning space) are analyzed. Simple solutions of the homogeneous part of these equations are expressed in terms of some anisotropically modified Killing-Yano tensors. The general results are applied to the case of the four-dimensional locally anisotropic Taub-NUT manifold with Euclidean signature. We emphasize that all constructions are for(pseudo) Riemannian spaces defined by vacuum soltions, with generic anisotropy, of 5D Einstein equations, the solutions being generated by applying the moving frame method.

description: Value-added management practices for cow-calf producers have become prevalent as feeders have recognized the value of calves raised with certified health and weaning programs. Export markets requiring age and source verification or non-hormone treated cattle and advancement of markets for naturally raised cattle have also presented profit opportunities for cow-calf producers. This study estimates the value of value-added calf production and marketing programs. Weaned steer calves sold with certified health programs realized $7 to $10 per cwt premiums. Age- and sourceverified steers received $1 to $2 per cwt premiums exceeding added costs of about $0.67 per cwt in 2010 despite rapidly expanding supply.

description: 20. Gelis sapporoensis (ASHMEAD, 1906)
 Hemiteles sapporoensis ASHMEAD, 1906 – Holotypus (♀) untersucht (Washington).
 Diese Art war bisher nur aus Japan und aus der Mongolei bekannt (SCHWARZ 2009) und wird hier erstmals aus der Westpaläarktis gemeldet. G. sapporoensis (ASHMEAD) ist G. areator (PANZER) sehr ähnlich und unterscheidet sich so gut wie nur im Färbungsmuster (siehe Bestimmungstabelle), wobei zu beachten ist, dass zumindest bei G. areator (PANZER) die Ausdehnung der orangen Färbung stark variiert. Bei G. sapporoensis (ASHMEAD) sind im weiblichen Geschlecht das Mesoscutum ganz schwarz oder nur am Vorderrand etwas orange sowie der Thorax lateral teilweise, und am Gaster sind zumindest das 2. und 3. Tergit orange. Bei den Weibchen von G. areator (PANZER) ist der Gaster entweder ganz schwarz oder unterschiedlich ausgedehnt orange. Wenn er teilweise orange ist, dann ist das Mesoscutum zumindest teilweise ebenfalls orange.
 Die europäischen Tiere von G. sapporoensis (ASHMEAD) weichen von den untersuchten asiatischen Exemplaren (siehe SCHWARZ 2009) durch den ganz oder fast ganz schwarzen Kopf ab. Orange sind bei den europäischen Exemplaren von G. sapporoensis (ASHMEAD) Fühler ausser apikal, selten Orbitae neben den Fühlern, Mandibeln ausser den Zähnen, Pronotum ganz oder fast ganz, Mesopleuren ganz oder grösstenteils, Metapleuren ganz oder fast ganz, Beine ganz oder fast ganz, Postpetiolus apikal, 2. und 3. Gastertergit ganz oder teilweise und meist 4. Tergit teilweise. Die Flügelbinden sind dunkler als bei den meisten Exemplaren von G. areator (PANZER), wobei der helle Fleck der äusseren Binde apikal des Pterostigmas nur schwach entwickelt ist und möglicherweise auch ganz fehlen kann.

description: The NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) Rotation Measure (RM) catalogue is invaluable for the study of cosmic magnetism. However, the RM values reported in it can be affected by n$π$-ambiguity, resulting in deviations of the reported RM from the true values by multiples of +-652.9 rad m-2. We therefore set off to observationally constrain the fraction of sources in the RM catalogue affected by this ambiguity. New broadband spectro-polarimetric observations were performed with the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) at 1--2 GHz, with 23 n$π$-ambiguity candidates selected by their peculiarly high |RM| values. We identified nine sources with erroneous RM values due to n$π$-ambiguity and 11 with reliable RM values. In addition, we found two sources to be unpolarised and one source to be inconsistent with neither n$π$-ambiguity nor reliable RM cases. By comparing the statistical distributions of the above two main classes, we devised a measure of how much a source's RM deviates from that of its neighbours: $Δ/σ$, which we found to be a good diagnostic of n$π$-ambiguity. With this, we estimate that there are at least 50 sources affected by n$π$-ambiguity among the 37,543 sources in the catalogue. Finally, we explored the Faraday complexities of our sources revealed by our broadband observations.

description: This paper gives a leisurely introduction to Calabi-Yau manifolds and special Lagrangian submanifolds from the differential geometric point of view, followed by a survey of recent results on singularities of special Lagrangian submanifolds, and their application to the SYZ Conjecture. It is aimed at graduate students in Geometry, String Theorists, and others wishing to learn the subject, and is designed to be fairly self-contained. It is based on lecture courses given at Nordfjordeid, Norway and MSRI, Berkeley in June and July 2001. We introduce Calabi-Yau m-folds via holonomy groups, Kahler geometry and the Calabi Conjecture, and special Lagrangian m-folds via calibrated geometry. `Almost Calabi-Yau m-folds' (a generalization of Calabi-Yau m-folds useful in special Lagrangian geometry) are explained and the deformation theory and moduli spaces of compact special Lagrangian submanifolds in (almost) Calabi-Yau m-folds is described. In the final part we consider isolated singularities of special Lagrangian m-folds, focussing mainly on singularities locally modelled on cones, and the expected behaviour of singularities of compact special Lagrangian m-folds in generic (almost) Calabi-Yau m-folds. String Theory, Mirror Symmetry and the SYZ Conjecture are briefly discussed, and some results of the author on singularities of special Lagrangian fibrations of Calabi-Yau 3-folds are described.

title: The role of second-home tourism in urban development: A socio-spatial perspective
Creators: name: Yang, Yi
Publisher: name: Griffith University
Year: 2024
Subjects: subject: second-home tourism
subject: residential segregation
subject: socio-spatial impacts

description: Second homes have a long tradition as a supplementary form of accommodation used for tourism and leisure purposes in rural areas. Over the last two decades, they have become increasingly prevalent in urban areas. This shift has promoted a range of transitions in the social and governance structures pertaining to second-home tourism and in turn, has triggered a myriad of challenges associated with urban development and planning. The long-standing central debate around second-home tourism in rural areas is underpinned by sustainability concerns due to their impact on local communities and in particular, impacts pertaining to inequalities between second-home tourists and rural residents (i.e., socioeconomic status, social capital). The complexity of urban social spaces exacerbates this controversy in the urban context (i.e., cultural differences, wealth disparity, etc.). Yet, existing studies focusing on urban second-home tourism have to date, only adopted either a management or a marketing lens which arguably, does not provide a comprehensive understanding of the sociospatial impacts brought about by urban second-home development. Therefore, this research critically analyses and evaluates the extent to which second-home tourism facilitates sociospatial impacts on local residents in urban areas. To achieve this aim, the research is guided by two Research Objectives: Research Objective 1: To better understand the socio-spatial development of urban second-home tourism. Research Objective 2: To identify and measure the impacts of second-home tourism on the residential satisfaction of urban locals. This thesis is scaffolded by a post-structuralist approach. It is underpinned by enclave theory from urban geography literature and employs a mixed methods approach to data collection and analysis. Semi-structured interviews with 34 second-home industry stakeholders were conducted to better understand the socio-spatial impacts of residential segregation brought about by second-home tourism in urban areas. With the thematic coding using MAXQDA software, 15 themes were identified and coded. These results were then employed to underpin the latter phase of the study by identifying the four dimensions of segregation and providing empirical evidence for the measurement of residential segregation. Subsequently, to address Research Objective 2 of the thesis, quantitative data were collected from 626 valid surveys for the testing of a Residential Satisfaction Model using SPSS and Amos v28 statistical software packages.

 Material examined. Original description. The species has not been illustrated in the literature.
 Note. The species is unknown for us. It was illustrated neither in the original description, nor in the subsequent literature since its description. The species probably does not belong to the D. eurychlora group. Following to the original description the characters of the colouration of the head, thorax, abdomen, coloration and pattern of wings indicate for its association with other genus (supposely Belciana) rather than with Donda. Hampson (1894) separated D. lichenoides from D. eurychlora.

description: We compute with lattice field theory the vector and axial static structure factors of the unitary gas for arbitrary temperature above the superfluid transition and for fugacities 0.1 < z < 1.0. Using the lattice formulation, we calculate beyond the validity of the virial expansion, a commonly used technique in many-body physics. We find qualitative differences in the behavior of the structure factors at high fugacity compared to the predictions of the virial expansion. Due to the large scattering length of neutrons, we expect the unitary gas structure factors to approximate the structure factors of hot neutron gases, and we therefore expect our calculations to be useful in supernova simulations, where neutron gas structure factors are needed to compute in-medium neutrino-neutron scattering rates.

description: We infer the properties of massive star populations using the far-ultraviolet stellar continua of 61 star-forming galaxies: 42 at low-z observed with HST and 19 at z~2 from the Megasaura sample. We fit each stellar continuum with a linear combination of up to 50 single age and single metallicity Starburst99 models. From these fits, we derive light-weighted ages and metallicities, which agree with stellar wind and photospheric spectral features, and infer the spectral shapes and strengths of the ionizing continua. Inferred light-weighted stellar metallicities span 0.05-1.5 Z$_\odot$ and are similar to the measured nebular metallicities. We quantify the ionizing continua using the ratio of the ionizing flux at 900Å to the non-ionizing flux at 1500Å and demonstrate the evolution of this ratio with stellar age and metallicity using theoretical single burst models. These single burst models only match the inferred ionizing continua of half of the sample, while the other half are described by a mixture of stellar ages. Mixed age populations produce stronger and harder ionizing spectra than continuous star formation histories, but, contrary to previous studies that assume constant star formation, have similar stellar and nebular metallicities. Stellar population age and metallicity affect the far-UV continua in different and distinguishable ways; assuming a constant star formation history diminishes the diagnostic power. Finally, we provide simple prescriptions to determine the ionizing photon production efficiency ($ξ_{ion}$) from the stellar population properties. $ξ_{ion}$ has a range of log($ξ_{ion})=24.4-25.7$ Hz erg$^{-1}$ that depends on stellar age, metallicity, star formation history, and contributions from binary star evolution. These stellar population properties must be observationally determined to determine the number of ionizing photons generated by massive stars.

description: We present a multiwavelength examination of the supernova remnant (SNR) S26 in the nearby galaxy NGC 300 using data from Chandra X-ray Observatory, XMM-Newton X-ray Observatory, Hubble Space Telescope (HST), the Very Large Array, and the Australia Telescope Compact Array. We simultaneously fit all of the available X-ray data with a thermal plasma model and find a temperature of $0.77 \pm 0.13$ keV with a hydrogen column density of ($9.7^{+6.4}_{-4.8}$)$\times 10^{20}$ cm$^{-2}$. HST imaging allows us to measure a semimajor axis of $0.78 \pm 0.10$ arcsec ($7.5 \pm 1.0$ pc) and a semiminor axis of $0.69^{+0.14}_{-0.12}$ arcsec ($6.7^{+1.2}_{-1.4}$ pc). This precise size helps to constrain the age and velocity of the shock to be ($3.3^{+0.7}_{-0.6}$)$\times 10^{3}$ yr and $411^{+275}_{-122}$ km s$^{-1}$. We also fit photometry of the surrounding stars to infer the age and mass of the progenitor star to be $8 \pm 1$ Myr and $25^{+1}_{-5}$ M$_{\odot}$. Based on measured radio properties of the source and assuming equipartition, the estimated radio luminosity of $\sim 1.7 \times 10^{34}$ erg s$^{-1}$ over the $10^{8}-10^{11}$ Hz frequency range results in a minimum magnetic field associated with this SNR of $0.067$ mG and the minimum energy needed to power the observed synchrotron emission of $1.5 \times 10^{49}$ erg. The size and temperature of N300-S26 appear to be similar to the Galactic SNR G311.5-0.3 except that G311.5-0.3 has a significantly lower X-ray luminosity, is older, and has a slower shock velocity.

 Hemiteles speciosus HELLÉN, 1949 – Lectotypus (♀) untersucht (Helsinki).
 Der Lectotypus von Teneriffa, das einzig untersuchte Exemplar von G. speciosus (HELLÉN), ähnelt sehr stark G. ilicicola (SEYRIG) und unterscheidet sich nur durch ausgedehnter glänzende Thoraxseiten und durch die relativ lange Area superomedia mit fast glattem Untergrund. Der Postpetiolus ist nicht gestreift, wie das bei G. ilicicola (SEYRIG) meist der Fall ist. Ob diese Unterschiede konstant sind, kann erst nach Untersuchung umfangreicheren Materials von den Kanarischen Inseln beurteilt werden.

description: This paper examines the effect of variety attributes on adoption of improved sorghum varieties in Kenya. Using data from 140 farmers, the paper uses a multivariate probit to identify variety-specific drivers of adoption. The results on the perception of farmers variety attributes show that improved varieties had desirable production and marketing attributes while the local varieties were perceived to have the best consumption attributes. Evidence further indicates that the major sorghum variety attributes driving rapid adoption are taste, drought tolerance, yield, ease of cooking and the variety’s ability to fetch a price premium. Early maturity, a major focus of research has no effect on adoption. The findings of the study imply that, while developing improved seed varieties, breeders should also focus on non yield attributes like taste and ease of cooking. Secondly, it is important that both producers and consumers of sorghum be involved in the seed evaluation process.

description: We use observations of heavy elements in very metal-poor stars ([Fe/H] < -2.5) in order to place constraints on the viability of collapsar models as a significant source of the r-process. We combine bipolar explosion nucleosynthesis calculations with recent disk calculations to make predictions of the observational imprints these explosions would leave on very metal-poor stars. We find that a source of low (~ 0.1-0.5 $M_\odot$) Fe mass which also yields a relatively high (> 0.08 $M_\odot$) r-process mass would, after subsequently mixing and forming new stars, result in [r/Fe] abundances up to three orders of magnitude higher than those seen in stars. In order to match inferred abundances, 10-10$^3 M_\odot$ of Fe would need be efficiently incorporated into the r-process ejecta. We show that Fe enhancement and hence [r/Fe] dilution from other nearby supernovae is not able to explain the observations unless significant inflow of pristine gas occurs before the ejecta are able to form new stars. Finally, we show that the inferred [Eu/Fe] abundances require levels of gas mixing which are in conflict with other properties of r-process enhanced metal-poor stars. Our results suggest that early r-process production is likely to be spatially uncorrelated with Fe production, a condition which can be satisfied by neutron star mergers due to their large kick velocities and purely r-process yields.

description: In the present work we investigate the combined influence of magnetic background and boundaries on the thermodynamic properties of effective relativistic mean field models, like the so-called Walecka model. This is done by making use of generalized zeta-function approach and mean-field approximation at effective chemical equilibrium, focusing on the dependence with the size of compactified spatial dimension, the temperature and the magnetic field strength. The findings suggest a rich phase structure in the parameter space. The maintenance of long-range correlations is strongly affected under the change of these parameters, with the symmetric phase being favoured due to both inverse magnetic catalysis effect and the reduction of size of compactified dimension.

Year: 2021

description: In this study, we explored the abundance, distribution, and biodiversity of bryophytes and lichen on old-growth tree stumps in south-west Pacific Spirit Park. We measured the percent cover of 11 bryophyte species and total percent cover of lichen on the north, east, south, and west sides of stumps. Although we did not observe a relationship between total bryophyte cover and lichen cover, a moderate positive correlation between bryophyte diversity and lichen cover was found. Total bryophyte cover was significantly greater on the north side of stumps than on the South; however, among individual bryophyte species, only the most common, Leptidozia reptans, was more abundant on the North than on the South. We also investigated relationships between stump height, stump diameter, and bryophyte and lichen cover.

description: The NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) Rotation Measure (RM) catalogue has enabled numerous studies in cosmic magnetism, and will continue being a unique dataset complementing future polarisation surveys. Robust comparisons with these new surveys will however require further understandings in the systematic effects present in the NVSS RM catalogue. In this paper, we make careful comparisons between our new on-axis broadband observations with the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array and the NVSS RM results for 23 sources. We found that two unpolarised sources were reported as polarised at about 0.5% level in the RM catalogue, and noted significant differences between our newly derived RM values and the catalogue values for the remaining 21 sources. These discrepancies are attributed to off-axis instrumental polarisation in the NVSS RM catalogue. By adopting the 0.5% above as the typical off-axis instrumental polarisation amplitude, we quantified its effect on the reported RMs with a simulation, and found that on average the RM uncertainties in the catalogue have to be increased by $\approx$ 10% to account for the off-axis instrumental polarisation effect. This effect is more substantial for sources with lower fractional polarisation, and is a function of the source's true RM. Moreover, the distribution of the resulting RM uncertainty is highly non-Gaussian. With the extra RM uncertainty incorporated, we found that the RM values from the two observations for most (18 out of 21) of our polarised targets can be reconciled. The remaining three are interpreted as showing hints of time variabilities in RM.

description: ABSTRACT Despite the research efforts to introduce the newly developed, improved banana ’Matooke’ hybrids to the farming communities in Uganda, to date no attempt has been made to document the likelihood of farmer adoption of these hybrid bananas in Uganda. The paper has analyzed farmers’ perceptions regarding the newly developed improved Matooke hybrid banana attributes in Uganda to ex ante understand farmers’ likelihood of adoption of these varieties. Descriptive statistics and data reduction techniques (like factor analysis) were used to define the potential explanatory variables affecting adoption. Following this, a Zero Inflated Poisson (ZIP) regression model was applied to estimate the effect of farmers’ perceptions about the hybrid banana attributes and other factors on the likelihood of adoption of the Matooke hybrid banana variety. The results show that, compared to Mbwazirume – a local variety used as a reference, four of the hybrid banana varieties considered are perceived to be better in terms of production characteristics (resistance to sigatoka, weevils, nematodes, tolerance to poor soils, good bunch size, sucker production) but are regarded as inferior in terms of consumption characteristics (taste, colour when cooked, flavour). The hybrid M9 is regarded as having a relatively good performance with respect to most of the production and consumption characteristics. The results of the ZIP regression analysis, including farmer characteristics like gender, family size, age and farmer perceptions of varietal attributes, disease and pests, yield and agronomic attributes, were positively associated with the likely adoption of most of the hybrid bananas. In collaboration with extension agents, variety M9 could be disseminated to a wider farming community targeting, larger households, younger farmers and relatively farmers with large size of land.
