Email: [email protected] Abstract In an era of rapid technological advancement, it is easy to overlook those who established the knowledge base that underpins today’s research programs. This paper traces the history of plant and soil nematology in Australia and New Zealand and recognises six pioneers who contributed significantly to its development, namely N. A. Cobb, R. C. Colbran, H. R. Wallace, A. F. Bird, J. M. Fisher and W. C. Clark. Collectively, these scientists described many unique and economically important nematodes, advanced our understanding of the biology and ecology of both plant-parasitic and free-living species, laid the foundation for many of the nematode control measures that are in use today and also contributed to the development of the discipline of nematology at an international level.G.

    An x-ray timing analysis of NGC 6814

    1 online resource (vii, 42 pages) : charts (some colour), graphs (some colour)Includes abstract.Includes bibliographical references (pages 40-42).We perform an X-ray timing analysis of the type 1.5 Seyfert galaxy NGC 6814 to characterise its variability as a means of understanding the structure and properties of its active galactic nucleus (AGN). Using data from five observations by the XMMNewton and NuSTAR observatories, we employ a number of X-ray timing analysis techniques to investigate the relationships between the different components of the AGN. We find that variability in NGC 6814 during the 2016 eclipse was dominated by changes in the absorption, and that at all other epochs behaviour was similar to that of normal AGN. Our analysis of hardness ratio against flux confirms that NGC 6814 follows the “softer when brighter” trend observed in other AGN, and, from the fractional variabilities, the amplitude of these variations is found to decrease with increasing energy. No significant frequency or energy dependent lags are detected in any of the observations, indicating that the inner-disc blurred reflection component is quite weak in this source. We discuss the implications of these findings and how they support previous works that suggest a compact source of high-energy X-rays and the possibility of a non-standard accretion disc

    A Study of the Effects of Surface Active Materials on Oxygen Transfer

    No full text
    The effect of surface active on the rate of gas absorption into water was investigated. Pure oxygen was absorbed into quiescent de-gasified distilled water through-adsorbed monomolecular films of alkylbenzene Sulphonate (ABS) or sodium lauryl sulphate (NaLS). The rate of absorption was characterized by effective diffusivity as measured in detergent solutions up to 20 mg/1 and temperatures between 10 and 30°C. Gas transfer mechanistic models plus physical and chemical properties of surface films were reviewed in order to understand the fundamental processes of interfacial interference which would account for anomolies in results reported in the literature.ThesisMaster of Engineering (MEngr
