description: We propose beam division multiple access (BDMA) with per-beam synchronization (PBS) in time and frequency for wideband massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) transmission over millimeter-wave (mmW)/Terahertz (THz) bands. We first introduce a physically motivated beam domain channel model for massive MIMO and demonstrate that the envelopes of the beam domain channel elements tend to be independent of time and frequency when both the numbers of antennas at base station and user terminals (UTs) tend to infinity. Motivated by the derived beam domain channel properties, we then propose PBS for mmW/THz massive MIMO. We show that both the effective delay and Doppler frequency spreads of wideband massive MIMO channels with PBS are reduced by a factor of the number of UT antennas compared with the conventional synchronization approaches. Subsequently, we apply PBS to BDMA, investigate beam scheduling to maximize the achievable ergodic rates for both uplink and downlink BDMA, and develop a greedy beam scheduling algorithm. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of BDMA with PBS for mmW/THz wideband massive MIMO systems in typical mobility scenarios.

description: We present a new scheme for controlling the quantum state of a harmonic oscillator by coupling it to an anharmonic multilevel system (MLS) with first to second excited state transition frequency on-resonance with the oscillator. In this scheme that we call "ef-resonant", the spurious oscillator Kerr non-linearity inherited from the MLS is very small, while its Fock states can still be selectively addressed via an MLS transition at a frequency that depends on the number of photons. We implement this concept in a circuit-QED setup with a microwave 3D cavity (the oscillator, with frequency 6.4 GHz and quality factor QO=2E-6) embedding a frequency tunable transmon qubit (the MLS). We characterize the system spectroscopically and demonstrate selective addressing of Fock states and a Kerr non-linearity below 350 Hz. At times much longer than the transmon coherence times, a non-linear cavity response with driving power is also observed and explained.

Evolutionary history, seascape genetics and speciation in elasmobranchs from the Gulf of California

description: Speciation is one of the most important but less understood processes in nature. An identification of evolutionary and ecological processes promoting reproductive isolation and genetic differentiation is necessary to understand speciation. Although elasmobranchs generally show life histories thought to reduce the potential for regional genetic structure, we are largely unaware about the relative contribution of dispersal potential in shaping population structure and speciation in this group. The Gulf of California (GC) shows high ecological diversity, complex oceanography and active geological history, characteristics that make it a suitable scenario to study speciation. This study aims to elucidate ecological and biogeographic factors that influence genetic structure and speciation in co-distributed elasmobranchs from the Gulf of California and the Pacific coast of Baja California Peninsula (BCP), in Mexico. This was achieved using both nuclear and mitochondrial markers and a range of analytical tools in population and seascape genetics, phylogeography and phylogenetics. Tissue samples of three co-distributed groups of sharks and rays from the genera Rhinobatos, Squatina and Mustelus were obtained from several localities encompassing the major bioregions of the GC and the BCP. These taxa represent a range of dispersal ability, allowing testing the influence of mobility on genetic structure of elasmobranchs. Patterns of phylogeographic structure and genetic connectivity are described for each species and related to the geological history and the contemporary oceanographic setting of the GC. At a large spatial scale, patterns of genetic divergence were better explained by both vicariant geological events and oceanographic complexity. This indicates that ecological isolation via oceanographic discontinuities could be an important driver of marine biodiversity in the GC. Overall, genetic structure appeared inversely correlated with species vagility. This study also reports on previously unsuspected cryptic species and on well-delineated populations that should be managed separately. These results provide urgently needed information for conservation management of the heavily exploited elasmobranch fisheries in the region. This work represents the first comparative genetic analysis in elasmobranchs from the iconic GC ecosystem and has important implications for the study of the Gulf's biodiversity and its origin and for improving our understanding about speciation in the sea.

description: We estimate the radiative corrections of order $α/π$ to the magnetic moments of the proton and the neutron. The photon-loop diagram of the vertex-correction type is evaluated with phenomenological nucleon vector form factors. Infrared-finiteness and gauge-invariance require the inclusion of the wave-function renormalization factor from the self-energy diagram. Using recent empirical form factor parametrizations the corrections amount to $δκ_p= -3.42 \cdot 10^{-3}$ and $δκ_n= 1.34 \cdot 10^{-3}$. We study also the effects from photon-loops with internal $Δ(1232)$-isobars. For two customary versions of the $ΔNγ$-vertex and spin-3/2 propagator, these radiative corrections have values of $δκ_p^{(Δ)}= (-0.9,\, 0.0)\!\cdot\! 10^{-3}$ and $δκ_n^{(Δ)} = (1.2,\,-0.8)\!\cdot\! 10^{-3}$, respectively.

description: The exoplanet revolution is well underway. The last decade has seen order-of-magnitude increases in the number of known planets beyond the Solar system. Detailed characterization of exoplanetary atmospheres provide the best means for distinguishing the makeup of their outer layers, and the only hope for understanding the interplay between initial composition chemistry, temperature-pressure atmospheric profiles, dynamics and circulation. While pioneering work on the observational side has produced the first important detections of atmospheric molecules for the class of transiting exoplanets, important limitations are still present due to the lack of sys- tematic, repeated measurements with optimized instrumentation at both visible (VIS) and near-infrared (NIR) wavelengths. It is thus of fundamental importance to explore quantitatively possible avenues for improvements. In this paper we report initial results of a feasibility study for the prototype of a versatile multi-band imaging system for very high-precision differential photometry that exploits the choice of specifically selected narrow-band filters and novel ideas for the execution of simultaneous VIS and NIR measurements. Starting from the fundamental system requirements driven by the science case at hand, we describe a set of three opto-mechanical solutions for the instrument prototype: 1) a radial distribution of the optical flux using dichroic filters for the wavelength separation and narrow-band filters or liquid crystal filters for the observations; 2) a tree distribution of the optical flux (implying 2 separate foci), with the same technique used for the beam separation and filtering; 3) an exotic solution consisting of the study of a complete optical system (i.e. a brand new telescope) that exploits the chromatic errors of a reflecting surface for directing the different wavelengths at different foci.

description: Asymmetric hydrogenation as well as hydroformylation of 1,1-disubstituted olefins were investigated. Thus, an O-silylprotected dehydro lactate, a N,O-ketene acetal and a range of dehydro beta2-homoalanine derivatives were hydrogenated enantioselectively yielding chiral products with high stereoselectivities. Furthermore, the rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydroformylation of an alpha-phosphorylated styrene derivative was examined and the scope could be expanded using new phosphite-phosphoramidite ligands. In addition, HP-NMR experiments gave some indication of the active catalyst-complex.

Augmented Revolution: The Role of Social Media in the Arab Spring and the Hong Kong Umbrella Movement
Creators: name: HU, Qiyuan
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: This thesis explores the role of social media in social movements. It focuses on how social media changes the environment of communication in social movements; how activists operate in social movements through social media; and how social movements travel from one region to the next through social media. The thesis views social media as an extension of activists' fields of operation, enabling them to fight for change in the actual and virtual worlds simultaneously. Supported by the perspectives of public sphere, networked publics, affective publics and augmented reality, the thesis argues for "augmented revolutions" where online and offline actions interact. The thesis proceeds through a comparative analysis of two social movements where social media played an important role: The Arab Spring in 2011 and the Hong Kong Umbrella Movement in 2014. These case studies show that social media changes the activists' ways to participate, to express and deliver messages, and to mobilise crowds. It enables connective actions and the reconstruction of communal spaces. Based on these findings, this thesis asserts that social media may trigger social movements in other regions.

description: Continuum modelling of granular flow has been plagued with the issue of ill-posed equations for a long time. Equations for incompressible, two-dimensional flow based on the Coulomb friction law are ill-posed regardless of the deformation, whereas the rate-dependent $μ(I)$-rheology is ill-posed when the non-dimensional strain-rate $I$ is too high or too low. Here, incorporating ideas from Critical-State Soil Mechanics, we derive conditions for well-posedness of PDEs that combine compressibility with $I$-dependent rheology. When the $I$-dependence comes from a specific friction coefficient $μ(I)$, our results show that, with compressibility, the equations are well-posed for all deformation rates provided that $μ(I)$ satisfies certain minimal, physically natural, inequalities.
The growth and development of Albury-Wodonga 1972-2006: united and divided
Creators: name: Stein, Clara

description: Albury and Wodonga are contiguous twin towns astride the Murray River the border between New South Wales and Victoria and at a casual glance appear to be functioning as one town. In 1972 the Federal Labor Whitlam government and the States of Victoria and New South Wales established the Albury-Wodonga Growth Centre and appointed the Albury-Wodonga Development Corporation to plan and develop the project which included the building of two new satellite towns, Thurgoona and Baranduda. The Growth Centre policy is underpinned by the popular Growth Poles and Growth Centre theories of the day, which were circulating in Europe and North America. Albury and Wodonga were selected for development as a Growth Centre as they had already shown evidence of economic development and population growth. The theories of spatial concentration, industrial location, and regional agglomeration explain the development of the Growth Centre over three historical periods in Australia including the end of the Long Boom which encompasses the Whitlam years, the lead up to and the restructuring of the Australian economy by the Hawke-Keating governments (1976-1991), and the return to prosperity under the Howard government (1996-2006). Three issues were examined in this thesis. First, the reasons why Albury-Wodonga continued to grow in its unique way as an inland centre. Second, the role of the cross border location in generating reasons for growth and creating anomalies. Third an understanding of the brief and unique Federal intervention which has shaped Albury-Wodonga. The development of the Albury-Wodonga Growth Centre has been the first and last occasion, in the past forty years, that the Federal government has directly intervened in State regional affairs. Fieldwork provided a contemporary narrative from stakeholders in the Growth Centre about events over the three historic periods and the impact of anomalies on commerce, industry and residents. The thesis attempts to add to the research about internal borders and inland centres in Australia...

description: The nonequilibrium dynamics of anharmonic chains is studied by imposing an initial domain-wall state, in which the two half lattices are prepared in equilibrium with distinct parameters. We analyse the Riemann problem for the corresponding Euler equations and, in specific cases, compare with molecular dynamics. Additionally, the fluctuations of time-integrated currents are investigated. In analogy with the KPZ equation, their typical fluctuations should be of size $t^{1/3}$ and have a Tracy-Widom GUE distributed amplitude. The proper extension to anharmonic chains is explained and tested through molecular dynamics. Our results are calibrated against the stochastic LeRoux lattice gas.

description: Since the Lalpha rocket observations of (Gabriel, Solar Phys. 21, 392, 1971), it has been realized that the hydrogen (H) lines could be observed in the corona and offer an interesting diagnostic for the temperature, density, and radial velocity of the coronal plasma. Moreover, various space missions have been proposed to measure the coronal magnetic and velocity fields through polarimetry in H lines. A necessary condition for such measurements is to benefit from a sufficient signal-to-noise ratio. The aim of this article is to evaluate the emission in three representative lines of H for three different coronal structures. The computations have been performed with a full non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (non-LTE) code and its simplified version without radiative transfer. Since all collisionnal and radiative quantities (including incident ionizing and exciting radiation) are taken into account, the ionization is treated exactly. Profiles are presented at two heights (1.05 and 1.9 solar radii, from Sun center) in the corona, and the integrated intensities are computed at heights up to five solar radii.We compare our results with previous computations and observations (e.g. Lalpha from UVCS) and find a rough (model-dependent) agreement. Since the Halpha line is a possible candidate for ground-based polarimetry, we show that in order to detect its emission in various coronal structures, it is necessary to use a very narrow (less than 2 A wide) bandpass filter.

description: The mid-infrared provides a unique view of galaxy stellar populations, sensitive to both the integrated light of old, low-mass stars and to individual dusty mass-losing stars. We present results from an extended Spitzer/IRAC survey of M31 with total lengths of 6.6 and 4.4 degrees along the major and minor axes, respectively. The integrated surface brightness profile proves to be surprisingly diffcult to trace in the outskirts of the galaxy, but we can also investigate the disk/halo transition via a star count profile, with careful correction for foreground and background contamination. Our point-source catalog allows us to report on mid-infrared properties of individual objects in the outskirts of M31, via cross-correlation with PAndAS, WISE, and other catalogs.

description: State of the art qubit systems are reaching the gate fidelities required for scalable quantum computation architectures. Further improvements in the fidelity of quantum gates demands characterization and benchmarking protocols that are efficient, reliable and extremely accurate. Ideally, a benchmarking protocol should also provide information on how to rectify residual errors. Gate Set Tomography (GST) is one such protocol designed to give detailed characterization of as-built qubits. We implemented GST on a high-fidelity electron-spin qubit confined by a single $^{31}$P atom in $^{28}$Si. The results reveal systematic errors that a randomized benchmarking analysis could measure but not identify, whereas GST indicated the need for improved calibration of the length of the control pulses. After introducing this modification, we measured a new benchmark average gate fidelity of $99.942(8)\%$, an improvement on the previous value of $99.90(2)\%$. Furthermore, GST revealed high levels of non-Markovian noise in the system, which will need to be understood and addressed when the qubit is used within a fault-tolerant quantum computation scheme.

description: Gravitational forces are expected to excite spiral density waves in protoplanetary disks, disks of gas and dust orbiting young stars. However, previous observations that showed spiral structure were not able to probe disk midplanes, where most of the mass is concentrated and where planet formation takes place. Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array we detected a pair of trailing symmetric spiral arms in the protoplanetary disk surrounding the young star Elias 2-27. The arms extend to the disk outer regions and can be traced down to the midplane. These millimeter-wave observations also reveal an emission gap closer to the star than the spiral arms. We argue that the observed spirals trace shocks of spiral density waves in the midplane of this young disk.

Representations of Chinese men in Australian fiction 1973-2000: an analytical interpretation and a novella
Creators: name: Pan, Zijie Ken
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: The thesis examines a number of representations of Chinese men in Australian fiction in the years after the end of white Australia policy and up to the year 2000. Integrated with the thesis is a creative component of fiction. The theoretical and creative components are weighted equally at 50 per cent. -- The thesis is premised upon the assertion that two major spatial practices have historically shaped and continue to shape in different ways the national imaginary of Australians. These practices have been the dispossession of Aboriginal people upon European colonisation, and the institution of the white Australia policy which excluded immigrants of non-European, and specifically Asian and Pacific islands backgrounds. The thesis contends that despite the official end of the white Australia policy literary representations continue to configure Chinese men in various forms of exclusion. -- The thesis argues that the institutionalisation of multiculturalism has not repressed race-based attitudes, that since the end of the white Australia policy race remains textually alive and continues to affect people's lives in a conscious and not merely "subterranean" manner. The thesis examines the literary works of seven prominent Australian authors who have written novels with Chinese male characters. The thesis seeks to examine in this literature a particular manner of representation that is effected through a spatialisation bearing on the figure of the Chinese man. This spatialising effect produces a distancing from the centrality of whiteness and includes forms of marginalisation, orientalising, absence and loss through fetishism and melancholy, the search for a central Chinese masculine potency, and the appropriations of minority positions when the white narrating subject attempts to stand in and occupy the space of the Chinese male. -- The research and creative components integrate to explore the positionality of the Chinese male figure in Australian literature. The research component establishes, through analytical readings of selected Australian fiction, the confusion of incorporating the Chinese man within Australian society, lurching between acceptance and exclusion; the creative component tracks through the journey of its protagonist in Australian and Asian space, what might be a response of the Chinese male figure when exclusion and inclusion become unpredictable.

description: Preconditioning (PC) generally refers to methods used to adequately prepare a calf for a successful feedlot experience. The details of various preconditioning programs have been annotated elsewhere. In all programs, calves are vaccinated for viral respiratory diseases and seven to eight clostridial organisms; dewormed; treated for lice and grubs; bulls are castrated; and horned calves are dehorned. In most programs calves are weaned for ≥ 30 days, and calves are trained to eat from a bank and drink from a fountain or tank.

description: Jos Metropolis is witnessing rapid urban growth, which in turn puts pressure on development space. From a small mining town of less than 10,000 in 1920, it is now a buzzing state capital of over 1 million people. Hills and valleys that were earmarked in the 1975 and 2009 Master Plansas urban green, parks and conservation corridors are being swamped by low and medium income groups for housing developments resulting into unplanned spatial growth characterized of poor access and lack of basic infrastructure. Settlements on steep slopes and hilltops pose unique planning challenges arising from their topography, costs of construction and extension of social services and public facilities; poor drainage, irregular developments and propensity to environmental hazards. This paper analyzes physical and social characteristics of five sampled hilltop settlements in Jos metropolis. It is recommended that such settlements need special attention not only in terms of their planning but even more so in terms of their management, provision of basic services and infrastructure, integration with other parts of the city. Governments and the planning authorities should provide land for development for the urban poor at desirable locations at subsidized rate as a strategy of prohibiting housing developments on very steep slopes and difficult terrain.

Residing between languages: writing fiction in a second language, a theoretical and practical approach
Creators: name: Skoglund, Linn
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: This thesis investigates the practice of writing fiction in a second language in relation to the creative processes involved in such writing. In its investigations and analysis the thesis is concerned with international mobility and cross-cultural exchanges, and the concomitant rise of the translingual writer from several perspectives. In presenting the thesis writer's own short stories C written in her second language English C together with reflections on the writing of these stories, and in interviewing writers who write and publish in their second language, and analysing their responses, the thesis is principally concerned with the following interrelated themes: firstly, the extent to which writing fiction in a second language influences creative process, and secondly the writer!> experiences and perceptions of the influence of one language on another in their writing. The thesis argues that both residing and writing between languages has a positive influence on the creative process in that this situation of 'in-betweenness' generates conflict in a number of ways. This conflict relates to areas such as cultural and individual identity as well as the sense of one's own identity as a writer, but more significantly these areas of conflict are related to language. The thesis argues that it is this element of conflict for the 'in-between' writer that fuels creativity. As the interviewees and the thesis writer reside between languages, so does this research reside between disciplines. To understand the premise for this research, as well as to analyse and to interpret its findings, it has been necessary to consult theoretical and disciplinary approaches from fields such as psychology, anthropology, linguistics, philosophy, English and literature studies, and creative writing research. Research on language and creativity in the post-colonial context has been a significant source in the theoretical framing of this project. The research framework of this project is in line with the 'Iterative Cyclic Web' model of creative and research processes outlined by Hazel Smith and Roger Dean (2009) in the book Practice-led Research, Research-led Practice in the Creative Arts: the practice of creative writing has led the research, and the research has led back into the practice. This is also reflected in the presentation of the research, so that this thesis is structured and presented accordingly with alternating sections of analytical, reflective, and creative writing.

description: Harmonia axyridis (Pallas) (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae; the Multicolored Asian Lady Beetle; MALB) is a vineyard pest in many winemaking regions of the world due to its ability to taint juice and wine (‘ladybug taint’) through excretion or extraction of 2-isopropyl-3-methoxypyrazine (IPMP) when the beetles are incorporated with the grapes at harvest. A common vineyard intervention is the use of insecticidal sprays and the resulting dead beetles are often incorporated in with the harvested fruit. The main objective of this study was to quantify the impact of dead MALB on IPMP concentrations in red wine. Duplicate 'Cabernet Sauvignon' wines were produced with the addition of 10 beetles·l-1 juice, added either live or at 1, 3, 7, or 60-days postmortem. A control wine with no added beetles was included. IPMP concentration was substantially higher in live-beetle wines, and decreased to base-line levels at approximately 6.5 days post-mortem. These results should assist in decisions on viticultural interventions, such as timing of insecticidal sprays, as well as the establishment of grape quality parameters.

Nutritional Informatics: Mining Supermarket Sales Data as a Nutritional Assessment Method

Subjects: Nutrition - Evaluation

description: Many nutritional assessment techniques, including food frequency questionnaires (FFQs) and 24-hour dietary recalls have innate limitations such as expensive protocols, high respondent burden, and self-reporting biases. Supermarket sales data have shown promise as a new, indirect, inexpensive nutritional assessment method in recent studies. The goals of the research in this dissertation were to link nutritional content to supermarket sales data and to determine the relationship between supermarket purchases and traditional nutritional measures through correlation and regression analyses. Nutritional data was mapped to sales data at the nutrient and food group levels. One year retrospective supermarket sales data, household food inventory data, and FFQ results were then obtained for 50 households recruited for the study. A correlation analysis was completed to compare percentage of food groups purchased over 52 weeks against food groups in the household inventory and in the FFQ results. Additionally, stepwise regression models were created to predict BMI, energy intake, fat intake, and saturated fat intake based on supermarket sales data. Nutritional content was mapped to 100% of the supermarket sales data at the food group level and at 69% for the nutrient level. The correlation coefficients between the household inventory and sales data over the course of 52 weeks ranged from -0.13 to 0.83 with an average value of 0.23 at week 32, while correlation for the comparison between the FFQ and sales data ranged from -0.17 to 0.47 with an average of 0.23 at 32 weeks. 5 The regression models to predict BMI, energy intake, fat intake, and saturated fat intake each yielded significant results for several food group purchases from the sales data. Mapping nutritional content to sales data was successful, given that there are potential strategies to increase the linkage for nutrient data. The correlation results are in line with other studies comparing nutritional assessment methods against each other and the regression models produced many significant food groups that are substantiated by multiple studies. Overall, the work presented gives an excellent starting point for further informatics research into the untapped potential of supermarket sales data as a nutritional assessment method and public health tool.

description: When the Standard-Model Extension (SME) is applied in curved spacetime, the Lorentz-violation coefficients must depend on spacetime position. This work describes some of the consequences of this spacetime variation. We focus on effects that appear at a nonrelativistic scale and extract sensitivity of completed experiments to derivatives of SME coefficient fields.
