At a fixed point in spacetime (say, x0), gravitational phase space consists of the space of symmetric matrices {F ab} [corresponding to the canonical momentum π(x0)] and of symmetric matrices {Gab} [corresponding to the canonical metric gab(x0)], where 1 ≤ a, b ≤ n, and, crucially, the matrix {Gab} is necessarily positive definite, i.e. ∑ uGabu b > 0 whenever ∑ (ua)2 > 0. In an alternative quan...

Archival tagging studies of southern bluefin tuna (SBT , Thunnus maccoyii) have revealed that juveniles residing in the Great Australian Bight (GAB) over the austral summer undertake seasonal cyclic migrations to the southeast Indian Ocean and the Tasman Sea during winter. However, there remains disagreement about the extent of mixing between juvenile SBT regularly caught by longline fleets sou...

Few field measurements are available to constrain the diffuse discharge (or vertical leakage) component of the water balance of the Great Artesian Basin (GAB), even though numerical modelling indicates that it accounts for over half of the outflow of the GAB in South Australia. High leakage rates are observed along the southwestern margin of the GAB where the aquifer is close to the surface wit...

Zusammenfassung Aus dem Bereich der Schulbuchforschung beschreiben wir exemplarisch, welche Herausforderungen, Chancen und Stolpersteine es gab, ein Rechercheinstrument einer deutschen Schulbuchsammlung zu einem internationalem Rechercheinstrument auszubauen. Hierbei standen vor allem das Erstellen und Erweitern einer gemeinsamen Repräsentationsbasis, sowie das Wiederverwenden existierender Lös...

We report the first complete nucleotide sequence of an African human T-cell lymphotropic virus type II. This new strain, called HTLV-II-Gab (Gab), was obtained from the uncultured peripheral blood mononuclear cells of a 44-year-old healthy Gabonese male who lived in a remote rural area, with neither history of blood transfusion nor sexual intercourse with non-Africans. Using nested PCR, 25 over...

In unsupervised domain mapping, the learner is given two unmatched datasets A and B. The goal is to learn a mapping GAB that translates a sample in A to the analog sample in B. Recent approaches have shown that when learning simultaneously both GAB and the inverse mapping GBA, convincing mappings are obtained. In this work, we present a method of learning GAB without learning GBA. This is done ...
