description: We study spin-transfer-torque driven magnetization dynamics of a perpendicular magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) nanopillar. Based on the combination of spin-torque ferromagnetic resonance and microwave spectroscopy techniques, we demonstrate that the free layer (FL) and the weak pinned reference layer (RL) exhibit distinct dynamic behaviors with opposite frequency vs. field dispersion relations. The FL can support a single coherent spin-wave (SW) mode for both parallel and antiparallel configurations, while the RL exhibits spin-wave excitation only for the antiparallel state. These two SW modes corresponding to the FL and RL coexist at an antiparallel state and exhibit a crossover phenomenon of oscillation frequency with increasing the external magnetic field, which could be helpful in the mutual synchronization of auto-oscillations for SW-based neuromorphic computing.

On modifications of Reichenbach's principle of common cause in light of Bell's theorem

description: Bell's 1964 theorem causes a severe problem for the notion that correlations require explanation, encapsulated in Reichenbach's Principle of Common Cause. Despite being a hallmark of scientific thought, dropping the principle has been widely regarded as a much less bitter medicine than the perceived alternative---dropping relativistic causality. Recently, however, some authors have proposed that modified forms of Reichenbach's principle could be maintained even with relativistic causality. Here we break down Reichenbach's principle into two independent assumptions---the Principle of Common Cause proper, and Factorisation of Probabilities. We show how Bell's theorem can be derived from these two assumptions plus Relativistic Causality and the Law of Total Probability for actual events, and we review proposals to drop each of these assumptions in light of the theorem. In particular, we show that the non-commutative common causes of Hofer-Szabo and Vecsernyes fail to have an analogue of the notion that the common causes can explain the observed correlations. Moreover, we show that their definition can be satisfied trivially by any quantum product state for any quantum correlations. We also discuss how the conditional states approach of Leifer and Spekkens fares in this regard.

V2: replaced with final published version (created June 16, 2014), which includes a more detailed discussion of how in the Leifer-Spekkens approach the requirement of factorisation of probabilities in Reichenbach's Principle must be replaced by factorisation of quantum channels (see Eq.(19))

description: To any closed subvariety $Y$ of a complex abelian variety one can attach a reductive algebraic group $G$ which is determined by the decomposition of the convolution powers of $Y$ via a certain Tannakian formalism. For a theta divisor $Y$ on a principally polarized abelian variety, this group $G$ provides a new invariant that naturally endows the moduli space $A_g$ of principally polarized abelian varieties of dimension $g$ with a finite constructible stratification. We determine $G$ for a generic principally polarized abelian variety, and for $g=4$ we show that the stratification detects the locus of Jacobian varieties inside the moduli space of abelian varieties.

description: Taking an ironic, Icarian twist on Steve Tomasula's Ascension, Stuart Moulthrop situates Tomasula's novel in a subterranean, encyclopedic lineage that includes print fictions like Joyce’s Ulysses, Dos Passos’ U.S.A. trilogy, Pynchon’s Gravity’s Rainbow, DeLillo’s Underworld, David Foster Wallace’s Infinite Jest, and Zadie Smith’s White Teeth – novels that are, as Edward Mendelson put it, “the products of an epoch in which the world's knowledge is larger than any one person can encompass.” It's an experimental lineage that is, arguably, one of the more noteworthy carryovers from print to digital literature; a genre that Moulthrop (2013) and his near contemporary Michael Joyce (2007) have termed the “novel of internet.”
Clean measurements of the nucleon axial-vector and free-neutron magnetic form factors

description: We discuss the feasibility of a weak charged current experiment using a low energy electron beam. A first goal is to measure the Q^2 dependence of the axial-vector form factor g_a(Q^2). It can be measured model-independently and as robustly as for electromagnetic form factors from typical electron scattering experiments, in contrast to the methods used so far to measure g_a(Q^2). If g_a(Q^2) follows a dipole form, the axial mass can be extracted with a better accuracy than the world data altogether. The most important detection equipment would be a segmented neutron detector with good momentum and angular resolution that is symmetric about the beam direction, and covers a moderate angular range. A high intensity beam (100 uA) is necessary. Beam polarization is highly desirable as it provides a clean measurement of the backgrounds. Beam energies between 70 and 110 MeV are ideal. This range would provide a Q^2 mapping of g_a between 0.01

(Re)Envisioning the Tourism Experiences of People with Vision Impairment
Creators: name: Richards, Victoria
Publisher: name: Cardiff Metropolitan University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Tourism not elsewhere classified

description: Whilst tourism has been recognised as a tool for tackling social exclusion, disability has been a neglected area of tourism. Moreover, few studies have focused on the experiences of vision impaired people in part due to an assumption that they can derive little from seeing 'the sights' and experiencing a place at its full potential. My research aims to gain a profound and in-depth understanding of the tourism experiences of vision impaired people to discover the meaning and significance of tourism in their lives while also capturing embodied experiences in tourism places and spaces. Underpinned by the social, sociology of impairment and affirmation models of disability, the studyâ€™s emancipatory disability research philosophy places vision impaired peopleâ€™s voices at its heart as the studyâ€™s co-researchers. Phase One involved four focus groups of vision impaired people at Cardiff Vale and Valleys while Phase Two is based on in-depth conversations with five vision impaired people and their families in South East Wales. Phase One identifies individual, social and environmental barriers to positive participation while Phase Two highlights the need for effective staff training, universal design, accessible information and illustrates that embodied experiences involve the synaesthesia of the senses connecting with multi-sensory tourism environments. Vision impairment does not necessarily preclude appreciation of visual impressions and my co-researchers have demonstrated from non-vision and low vision perspectives that meaningful tourism experiences are achievable. However, the research also presents a complex and diverse picture of needs and aspirations in tourism engagement. The thesis concludes with a series of recommendations for enquiry, practice and policy. It is suggested that inclusive thinking by the tourism industry, scholars and vision impaired people themselves hold the key to improving rights of citizenship and enabling vision impaired people to find an equal sense of place in the world.

title: Light: the diegetic world-builder in J.R.R. Tolkien’s secondary world
Creators: name: Bulbul, Asli
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2022

description: This project explores light imagery in J.R.R. Tolkien’s secondary world as the diegetic world-builder. While doing this, it uses the cosmogony narrative in The Silmarillion followed by the First and Second Age stories. This project also introduces specific ideas from The Lord of the Rings when relevant, and analyses specific stories and quotations from The History of Middle-earth series as the external chronology. The aim to introduce the external chronology has been to compare and contrast Tolkien’s ideas about his world-building throughout his authorship to show what has changed and what has remained the same regarding the light imagery in the secondary world. While using these texts, this project engages in formalist and critical world-building approaches. The formalist framework as reanalysed by Caroline Levine (2017) enables a contemporary approach to the close-reading of the keyword light to reveal how light imagery as the diegetic world-builder is formed, ordered and patterned throughout the secondary world narrative. The critical world-building framework as introduced by Stefan Ekman and Audrey Isabel Taylor (2016) enables me to address Tolkien’s secondary world as a self-referential product and highlights the significance of my role as a critic in this project. The main aim of this project is to assign the diegetic task of world-building to a single imagery, light. This aim confronts the overall assumption and discussion by the relevant previous scholarship that a task like world-building can only be associated with authors or their subcreated characters. Therefore, this aim makes this project unique in a sense that as the narrow aim, it also reveals the overall potential of fantasy as a genre in providing new insights into a subcreation, and thus inescapably, the primary world.

The impact of advanced manufacturing technology on small Welsh companies
Creators: name: Walters, Andrew
Publisher: name: Cardiff Metropolitan University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Manufacturing processes and technologies (excl. textiles)

description: This research is concerned with the impact of advanced manufacturing technologies on small Welsh companies. The use of technology has been demonstrated to be a mechanism for increasing competitiveness in manufacturing. With increasing global competition, such improvements in competitiveness are important for manufacturers. However, despite the use of such technology being advocated as an important tool in developing competitive advantage, little research has been undertaken into how small companies might utilise such tools. This research draws on the technology adoption experiences of twelve case-study companies to gain an understanding of the impact of such technology and the critical factors that influence successful development. The research is presented in two stages. The first stage is the development of case-studies from interviews with ten manufacturing managers. This is followed by a stage of longitudinal research that observed attempts to introduce advanced manufacturing technology in two further companies over a one- to two-year period. The conclusions of the research demonstrate that for these small companies, availability of support is at least as important as cost. In addition, the study reveals a distinction between inherent and integrated benefits from technology. Inherent benefits refer to a match between company requirements and technology capabilities. Integrated benefits refer to achievable benefits as a result of technology use in a wider system. The case-studies show that these small companies are not employing sophisticated methods of evaluation to assist in selecting technologies. The observations also demonstrate that the companies are failing to properly assess the impacts of their technology investments and are not adequately developing internal support. This research condenses the observed issues into a series of recommendations to assist managers in assessing the impact of AMT and develops recommendations configured into a flowchart for staged consideration of issues at an appropriate level of sophistication for small company use.

Publisher: name: Cardiff Metropolitan University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other commerce, management, tourism and services not elsewhere classified

description: The research sets out to identify factors that have brought change in the government UK Intellectual Property Office in the context of change in the public sector and Civil Service. The research explores the historical background to public sector change over a 70 year period in terms of what, how, and why such changes have arisen and the factors that have intended to influence change. The research reviews the Civil Service from an agencification concept perspective in terms of executive agency creation, "Next Steps" agencies and determination of practice and status. The research explores the perspective of executive agencies in terms of role, model, purpose and key characteristics, management and focus, performance measurement, target setting and performance and determines characteristics of executive agencies. The research explores the context of the UK Intellectual Property Office pre and post agency status and identifies factors related and unrelated to agency status affecting change and continuity pre and post agencification from a general, policy, performance, strategy and management perspective as well as identifying the reasons for change and continuity pre and post agency status. The research analyses the findings in the UKIPO in relation to the historical review, agencification concept and from the UKIPO perspective research material from a general, policy, performance, strategy and management perspective. Conclusions are drawn of change and the factors of most influence affecting the agency from these perspectives over a 20 year period are set out together with the reasoning believed to be behind change and continuity. Conclusions about the study and the general implications from the study are reported and the related factors and outside factors unrelated to agency status which have contributed to this change are shown in diagrammatical form. Ideas for the future and identification of strategic directional tools for assessing organisation capability conclude the research.

description: Continuum elasticity is a powerful tool applicable in a broad range of physical systems and phenomena. Yet, understanding how and on what scales material disorder may lead to the breakdown of continuum elasticity is not fully understood. We show, based on recent theoretical developments and extensive numerical computations, that disordered elastic networks near a critical rigidity transition, such as strain-stiffened fibrous biopolymer networks that are abundant in living systems, reveal an anomalous long-range linear elastic response below a correlation length. This emergent anomalous elasticity, which is non-affine in nature, is shown to feature a qualitatively different multipole expansion structure compared to ordinary continuum elasticity, and a slower spatial decay of perturbations. The potential degree of universality of these results, their implications (e.g. for cell-cell communication through biological extracellular matrices) and open questions are briefly discussed.

description: The detonation of a thin ($\lesssim$$0.03\,\mathrm{M_\odot}$) helium shell (He-shell) atop a $\sim$$1\,\mathrm{M_\odot}$ white dwarf (WD) is a promising mechanism to explain normal Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), while thicker He-shells and less massive WDs may explain some recently observed peculiar SNe Ia. We present observations of SN 2020jgb, a peculiar SN Ia discovered by the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF). Near maximum light, SN 2020jgb is slightly subluminous (ZTF $g$-band absolute magnitude $M_g$ between $-18.2$ and $-18.7$ mag depending on the amount of host galaxy extinction) and shows an unusually red color ($g_\mathrm{ZTF}-r_\mathrm{ZTF}$ between 0.4 and 0.2 mag) due to strong line-blanketing blueward of $\sim$5000 $Å$. These properties resemble those of SN 2018byg, a peculiar SN Ia consistent with a thick He-shell double detonation (DDet) SN. Using detailed radiative transfer models, we show that the optical spectroscopic and photometric evolution of SN 2020jgb are broadly consistent with a $\sim$$0.95\,\mathrm{M_\odot}$ (C/O core + He-shell; up to $\sim$$1.00\,\mathrm{M_\odot}$ depending on the total host extinction) progenitor ignited by a thick ($\sim$$0.13\,\mathrm{M_\odot}$) He-shell. We detect a prominent absorption feature at $\sim$1 $μ\mathrm{m}$ in the near-infrared (NIR) spectrum of SN 2020jgb, which could originate from unburnt helium in the outermost ejecta. While the sample size is limited, similar 1 $μ\mathrm{m}$ features have been detected in all the thick He-shell DDet candidates with NIR spectra obtained to date. SN 2020jgb is also the first subluminous, thick He-shell DDet SN discovered in a star-forming galaxy, indisputably showing that He-shell DDet objects occur in both star-forming and passive galaxies, consistent with the normal SN Ia population.

description: When a distributed algorithm must be executed by strategic agents with misaligned interests, a social leader needs to introduce an appropriate tax/subsidy mechanism to incentivize agents to faithfully implement the intended algorithm so that a correct outcome is obtained. We discuss the incentive issues of implementing economically efficient distributed algorithms using the framework of indirect mechanism design theory. In particular, we show that indirect Groves mechanisms are not only sufficient but also necessary to achieve incentive compatibility. This result can be viewed as a generalization of the Green-Laffont theorem to indirect mechanisms. Then we introduce the notion of asymptotic incentive compatibility as an appropriate solution concept to faithfully implement distributed and iterative optimization algorithms. We consider two special types of optimization algorithms: dual decomposition algorithms for resource allocation and average consensus algorithms.

description: Crystallization and vitrification are two different routes to form a solid. Normally these two processes suppress each other, with the glass transition preventing crystallization at high density (or low temperature). This is even true for systems of colloidal hard spheres, which are commonly used as building blocks for novel functional materials with potential applications, e.g. photonic crystals. By performing Brownian dynamics simulations of glassy systems consisting of mixtures of active and passive hard spheres, we show that the crystallization of such hard-sphere glasses can be dramatically promoted by doping the system with small amounts of active particles. Surprisingly, even hard-sphere glasses of packing fraction up to $ϕ= 0.635$ crystallize, which is around $0.5\%$ below the random close packing at $ϕ\simeq 0.64$. Our results suggest a novel way of fabricating crystalline materials from (colloidal) glasses. This is particularly important for materials that get easily kinetically trapped in glassy states, and crystal nucleation hardly occurs.

description: We describe an extension to the SOFTSUSY program that provides for the calculation of the sparticle spectrum in the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM), where a chiral superfield that is a singlet of the Standard Model gauge group is added to the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) fields. Often, a $\mathbb{Z}_{3}$ symmetry is imposed upon the model. SOFTSUSY can calculate the spectrum in this case as well as the case where general $\mathbb{Z}_{3}$ violating (denoted as $\,\mathbf{\backslash}\mkern-11.0mu{\mathbb{Z}}_{3}$) terms are added to the soft supersymmetry breaking terms and the superpotential. The user provides a theoretical boundary condition for the couplings and mass terms of the singlet. Radiative electroweak symmetry breaking data along with electroweak and CKM matrix data are used as weak-scale boundary conditions. The renormalisation group equations are solved numerically between the weak scale and a high energy scale using a nested iterative algorithm. This paper serves as a manual to the NMSSM mode of the program, detailing the approximations and conventions used.

Towards a framework for performance management in a Higher Education institution

Publisher: name: Cardiff Metropolitan University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Educational administration, management and leadership

description: The increased emphasis on improving performance and accountability in higher education has seen the introduction of league tables, the development of key performance indicators and the requirement to make explicit in HR strategies action to tackle poor performance. At the same time, the need to attract, recruit, develop and retain the right calibre of employees is now widely recognised as a source of competitive advantage. It is through their staff, that universities are able to respond to the challenges of the changing HE environment and the effective management of performance at organisational, school/unit and individual level is therefore critical to success. A literature review on performance management (with a particular emphasis on HR policies underpinning the Employee Life Cycle) culminated in the development of a unified theoretical model. This action research investigated managers’ perspectives of performance management in a post-92 HEI. It sought to establish current performance management practices and identify areas of congruence and dissonance between three different management groups. Research methods included a case study of the university’s journey towards improving performance, one-to-one interviews with 21 executive and senior managers and an on-line survey questionnaire returned by 44 academic and support middle managers. The research revealed that the holistic, complex and multidisciplinary phenomenon of performance management was not fully understood amongst managers and whilst many good practices were evidenced, opportunities for setting out performance expectations and planning, supporting and reviewing performance were sometimes under-developed or not sufficiently deployed. All management groups experienced difficulties when managing individual performance, exacerbated by a general dislike of having to tackle issues of poor performance. The study concludes that compliance is a major issue that threatens the performance of the institution. A performance management framework to assist managers in optimising the right performance management tools and opportunities is proffered as a solution.

description: Open-shell benzenoid polycyclic hydrocarbons (BPHs) are promising materials for future quantum applications. However, the search and realization of open-shell BPHs with desired properties is a challenging task due to the gigantic chemical space of BPHs, requiring new strategies for both theoretical understanding and experimental advancement. In this work, by building a structure database of BPHs through graphical enumeration, performing data-driven analysis, and combining tight-binding and mean-field Hubbard calculations, we discovered that the number of the internal vertices of the BPH graphs is closely correlated to their open-shell characters. We further established a series of simple rules, the triangle counting rule (TCR), to predict the magnetic ground state of BPHs. These findings not only provide a database of open-shell BPHs, but also extend the well-known Lieb's theorem and Ovchinnikov's rule and provide a straightforward method for designing open-shell carbon nanostructures. These insights may aid in the exploration of emerging quantum phases and the development of magnetic carbon materials for technology applications.

description: AbstractDuring fieldwork among older adults in middle‐class families in the city of Bhaktapur (2018–2019), I recurrently came across comparative narratives of moral decline, depicting a stark contrast between the present time and a mythical past where ageing parents were treated “as gods.” In this paper, I analyze how, through acts of comparisons involving the weighing of opportunities between the past and the present and between difficulties facing parents and children, older people define their “moralities of expectation,” through which intimate politics of giving and taking are weighed against perceptions of hardship in the context of precarious middle‐class livelihoods. I suggest that comparison functions as a social practice with epistemological and affective connotations and that by comparing with real and imagined others, older people validate themselves as virtuous by anchoring to fluid and ever‐changing social systems. Ultimately, these findings shed light on how moral selfhoods are shaped through comparison with models of the past and the present, revealing how it is in this careful and purposeful evaluation of one's own behavior and that of others that social change is negotiated and the broader ethos revised.

description: Definitions of quality are many and varied but focus on three key issues: the customer, the product and/or the manufacturing process. Quality must be appropriate and consistent. Quality is one of the most often-used words in relation to food service operations. The quality of the food that a hotel delivers to its customers is a key part of its product offering. Reputations of hotels ride on consistent food quality and thus food production operations are a critical issue. At present, quality is a source of competitive advantage, but as client demands continue to increase, quality will become essential simply for surviving and succeeding in business. Food production operations can be managed through the application of a systems approach considering the input, process, and output of food. One of the quality management systems used in food production to provide products of consistent quality is the ISO standard, but its manufacturing origins made it too complicated to be applied in service industries, such as hotel operations. This study aims to develop a workable food quality management system to achieve consistent level of food quality through food production processes within hotels using the ISO quality system as a foundation. This research adopts a pragmatic approach as a properly-integrated strategy using a multiple case study of hotel food production operations in and around the Cardiff area. The methodology combined quantitative and qualitative methods to answer the research questions and achieve the aim and objectives. Data collection involved multiple sources of evidence, i.e. an online survey to obtain preliminary information about the hotel approached; semi-structured interviews with managers in charge of food quality in hotels; a management questionnaire; a staff attitude questionnaire with hotel food production staff; non-participant observation of food production processes within hotel food production areas. The results indicated that there was often an over-reliance on individuals rather than systems to provide food of consistent quality in hotel food production operations. A workable system based on effective documentation is needed to ensure consistent level of food quality. Based on the findings, a quality management system based on ISO standards and appropriate for the production of food of consistent quality in hotels is developed. The thesis concludes with recommendations for hotel food production operators to be taken into account to ensure consistency of food quality

description: In this article, we propose a Frozen Gaussian Sampling (FGS) algorithm for simulating nonadiabatic quantum dynamics at metal surfaces with a continuous spectrum. This method consists of a Monte-Carlo algorithm for sampling the initial wave packets on the phase space and a surface-hopping type stochastic time propagation scheme for the wave packets. We prove that to reach a certain accuracy threshold, the sample size required is independent of both the semiclassical parameter $\varepsilon$ and the number of metal orbitals $N$, which makes it one of the most promising methods to study the nonadiabatic dynamics. The algorithm and its convergence properties are also validated numerically. Furthermore, we carry out numerical experiments including exploring the nuclei dynamics, electron transfer and finite-temperature effects, and demonstrate that our method captures the physics which can not be captured by classical surface hopping trajectories.

Breeding sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum) for chilling tolerance using advanced genetic and phytochemical techniques
Creators: name: Brindisi, Lara Jordan
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2023

description: Sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum L). is a popular culinary herb grown worldwide. To extend shelf life and reduce postharvest loss, most herbs and vegetables are stored and shipped at low temperatures to maintain freshness and texture and to inhibit losses to postharvest pathogens. Sweet basil is a chilling sensitive crop with injury appearing when fresh leaves are subjected to temperatures as low as 12°C, with severe injuries occurring as low as 10°C. Chilling injury symptoms manifest in leaf browning and wilting in sweet basil, rendering the produce unmarketable. This limits the inclusion of shipping sweet basil with other fresh produce, leading growers and supply chains to use costly separate shipping arrangements or risk significant economic losses. A basil gene homologous to the freezing tolerant gene AtMYB14 was edited using a CRISPR/Cas9 integrating vector to explore if a knockout of the transcription factor increased chilling tolerance. Simultaneously, a chilling tolerant basil line ‘CB15’ was identified through chilling assays at the pre- and postharvest stages with visual ratings using five-level indices and high-throughput image phenotyping. This line was used to construct an F2 mapping population with the commercial cultivar, ‘Rutgers Obsession DMR’. Seven significant QTL were identified from the genetic linkage map for response to chilling temperatures. Two QTL were also detected for major aroma compounds in basil including estragole and eucalyptol. Candidate F2 lines are currently being selected for cultivar development in terms of chilling tolerance, aroma profiles and downy mildew resistance. The sensory and chemical profiles of a related, chilling tolerant basil ‘CB19’ and commercial cultivars were evaluated by a trained panel and GC/MS and LC/MS analyses to determine if additional taste, flavor or aroma compounds should be incorporated into the goals of the breeding program. Compounds that were newly correlated with sensory attributes in basil included β-pinene with green flavor; myrcene with cinnamon and lemon aromas and ginger and flavors; γ-terpinene with green aroma and flavor; borneol with cinnamon and lemon aromas; bornyl acetate with black pepper aroma and spicy flavor; and eugenol with clove flavor. This information will be important in the future of sweet basil breeding programs by using the knowledge of genetics and biochemistry to improve sweet basil cultivars and minimize postharvest losses.

Quenching the magnetic flux in 1d fermionic ring: Loschmidt echo and edge singularity

description: We consider the non-equilibrium dynamics of a system of interacting massless fermions in a ring threaded by a magnetic flux. We focus on the quench where the flux is initially vanishing and is then turned on. We show that the definition of the limit of abrupt quench is problematic due to the presence of gauge invariance that has to be taken into account. We then propose a specific protocol where the dynamics is non-trivial. Employing techniques coming from the Algebraic Bethe-Ansatz, we present an exact formula for the Loschmidt echo valid at all times as a Fredholm determinant at the free fermionic point. From the analysis of the asymptotic behavior of the Fredholm determinant, we show that the distribution of work done at small energies present an edge singularity whose exponent can be explicitly computed. Using the correspondence between the edge singularity and the decay of the fidelity at finite-size we propose a general formula for the exponent valid also in the interacting case.

Enhancing coaches' experiential learning through 'communities of practice' (Lave & Wenger, 1991)

Subjects: Sport and exercise psychology

description: Significant work in the social sciences has argued the nature of learning as a collaborative, social process (Lave & Wenger, 1991). Similarly, research within coaching has positioned interaction and experience within practical coaching contexts as the principal knowledge source of both novice and experienced coaches (Cushion, Armour & Jones, 2006; Jones, Armour & Potrac, 2004; Potrac, Jones & Armour, 2002). Despite such developments, a dearth of research exists examining the complexities inherent in establishing, developing and facilitating such a social learning environment. This is particularly so in terms of exploring the effectiveness of pedagogical frameworks used to develop coaches' experiential knowledge. The aim of this PhD thesis was to explore how, through an action research based study, coaches' experiential learning could be harnessed and better developed within Lave and Wenger's (1991) shared "communities of practice" (CoPs). The study involved two groups of coaches; one of elite and the other of developmental football players. Using an action research methodology, data on coaches' learning were gathered both through on-going observations and focus groups interviews over the course of a nine-month season. The data were inductively analysed and presented as a series of unfolding narratives. The plot hinges on my attempts as a facilitator to encourage the respective groups of coaches to engage and develop within their CoPs. Findings revealed that whilst the developmental coaches were generally positive about participating in a "community of practice" (CoP) and appeared to engage with its processes, the elite coaches were much less cooperative. The results contribute to the body of evidence-based studies that seek to examine, problematise and build credible pedagogies for coach education, whilst bringing to light the issues associated with the messy nature of such research and the constant everyday demands placed on coaches working at a variety of levels

description: We discuss strange stars admixed with fermionic dark matter in the presence of a strong magnetic field using the two-fluid Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkov equations. We describe strange quark matter using the MIT bag model and consider magnetic fields in the range $\sim 10^{17}-10^{18}$ G. For the fermionic dark matter, we consider the cases of free particles and strongly self-interacting particles, with dark fermion masses $m=5, 100, 500$ GeV. We discuss the effects of dark matter and a strong magnetic field on the masses and radii of the stars, as well as on its tidal deformability. Even though strong magnetic fields contribute to decreasing the total mass of the star, they attenuate the rate of decrease in the maximum mass brought about by increasing the dark matter fraction in the admixed system. The most intensely affected observable, however, is the tidal deformability, with variations on the range of $70\%-90\%$ for reasonable values of the magnetic field or dark matter central energy density.
