Abstract:

Past studies of honey bee populations, in both natural and laboratory settings have allowed researchers to elucidate the dance language of honey bees within the hive. While the intent and meaning of the waggle dance is thoroughly understood, the area within the hive on which the bees dance is poorly understood. Several factors that may contribute to waggle dancing were studied: substrate, scent and hive entrance proximity. Two separate honey bee colonies were placed in three-frame observation hives. After establishing the dance floor, new experimental conditions were introduced by changing the

Abstract:

Cortical cultures are increasingly implemented as an in vitro model of cortical networks for the study of network level learning and memory using planar multi-electrode arrays. However the recurrent, culture-wide synchronous activity (termed 'global bursts') exhibited by cortical cultures is not representative of the predominantly asynchronous activity characteristic of the intact cortex. Moreover, it has been demonstrated that such activity can interfere with the induction of plasticity and thus result in findings which cannot be related to networks in vivo. Critically, the mechanisms underly

Ces systèmes permettent un contrôle précis de paramètres clés, tels que la dimensionnalité, les interactions, la vitesse initiale des atomes et le potentiel externe. Utilisant cette flexibilité, il a été possible de réaliser des expériences en régime fortement et faiblement localisé. La première expérience traite de l’expansion d’un condensat, dont une fraction maximale de 20% est localisée, permettant ainsi l’observation de la localisation d’Anderson en 3D. L

Abstract:

Despite the benefits of sexual reproduction, sharing a genome can put constraints on the evolvability of a species. This is due to sexual conflict, where the interests of each sex is in direct opposition to one another, and the benefit of one sex can be the cost of the other sex (i.e. sexual antagonism). Sex chromosomes have been the focus of much of the research done on sexual conflict due to their unique nature and are particularly interesting in the context of sexually antagonistic variance. In the first experiment (Chapter 2), I used experimental evolution to investigate the standing sexua

An experiment demonstrates aspirational incomes to be dramatically altered by a textual narrative despite it not presenting any new information. The narrative is constructed to elicit peer comparison effects, a common element of a variety of media formats. The effect of the narrative rapidly dissipates when concentration is redirected to unrelated tasks however, suggesting any influence media presentations have on a

Weighted voting games are classic cooperative games which provide compact representation for coalition formation models in human societies and multiagent systems. As useful as weighted voting games are in modeling cooperation among players, they are, however, not immune from the vulnerability of manipulations (i.e., dishonest behaviors) by strategic players that may be present in the games. With the possibility of manipulations, it becomes difficult to establish or maintain trust, and, more importantly, it becomes difficult to assure fairness in such games.

Trapped ions are currently one of the most promising architectures for realising the quantum information processor. The long lived internal states are ideal for representing qubit states and, through controlled interactions with electromagnetic radiation, ions can be manipulated to execute coherent logic operations.

Since ion energy can limit the coherence of qubit manipulations, characterisation of an ion trap heating rate is vital. Using a trapped 174Yb+ ion a heating rate consistent with previous meas

Nonclassical states of light are of increasing interest due to their applications in the emerging field of quantum information processing and communication. Squeezed light is such a state of the electromagnetic field in which the quantum noise properties are altered compared with those of coherent light. Squeezed light and squeezed vacuum states are potentially useful for quantum information protocols as well as optical measurements, where sensitivities can be limited by quantum noise. We experimentally study a source of squeezed vacuum resulting from the interaction of near-resonant light wit

Abstract:

Digital microfluidics (DMF) system or device can be used as a significant and useful tool for chemical, bio-chemical and bio-medical applications because of its capability to perform basic fluidic functions and sequential chemical reactions on miniscule (nanolitre) droplets with better precision and accuracy. Application of sufficient electric potential in a sequence of electrodes manipulates the droplet in an electro wetting on dielectric (EWOD)-based DMF system. The successful implementation and the reliability of an EWOD-based DMF system depends on perfect design and fabrication of the lab-

No caso de propulsão usando combustível líquido, tradicionalmente o bocal é conectado ao corpo do foguete através de uma junta cardânica. Dois atuadores hidráulicos são colocados ao redor do bocal para controlar sua orientação. Nesta tese, o TVC é tratado como uma plataforma robótic
