We have observed the G23 field of the Galaxy AndMass Assembly (GAMA) survey using the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) in its commissioning phase to validate the performance of the telescope and to characterise the detected galaxy populations. This observation covers ~48 deg2 with synthesised beam of 32.7 arcsec by 17.8 arcsec at 936MHz, and ~39 deg2 with synthesised beam of 15.8 arcsec by 12.0 arcsec at 1320MHz. At both frequencies, the root-mean-square (r.m.s.) noise is ~0.1 mJy/beam. We combine these radio observations with the GAMA galaxy data, which includes spectroscopy of galaxies that are i-band selected with a magnitude limit of 19.2. Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) infrared (IR) photometry is used to determine which galaxies host an active galactic nucleus (AGN). In properties including source counts, mass distributions, and IR versus radio luminosity relation, the ASKAP-detected radio sources behave as expected. Radio galaxies have higher stellar mass and luminosity in IR, optical, and UV than other galaxies. We apply optical and IR AGN diagnostics and find that they disagree for ~30% of the galaxies in our sample. We suggest possible causes for the disagreement. Some cases can be explained by optical extinction of the AGN, but for more than half of the cases we do not find a clear explanation. Radio sources aremore likely (~6%) to have an AGN than radio quiet galaxies (~1%), but the majority of AGN are not detected in radio at this sensitivity.

Experiments on the National Ignition Facility show that multi-dimensional effects currently dominate the implosion performance. Low mode implosion symmetry and hydrodynamic instabilities seeded by capsule mounting features appear to be two key limiting factors for implosion performance. One reason these factors have a large impact on the performance of inertial confinement fusion implosions is the high convergence required to achieve high fusion gains. To tackle these problems, a predictable implosion platform is needed meaning experiments must trade-off high gain for performance. LANL has adopted three main approaches to develop a one-dimensional (1D) implosion platform where 1D means measured yield over the 1D clean calculation. A high adiabat, low convergence platform is being developed using beryllium capsules enabling larger case-to-capsule ratios to improve symmetry. The second approach is liquid fuel layers using wetted foam targets. With liquid fuel layers, the implosion convergence can be controlled via the initial vapor pressure set by the target fielding temperature. The last method is double shell targets. For double shells, the smaller inner shell houses the DT fuel and the convergence of this cavity is relatively small compared to hot spot ignition. However, double shell targets have a different set of trade-off versus advantages. Details for each of these approaches are described.

A heuristic greedy algorithm is developed for efficiently tiling spatially dense redshift surveys. In its first application to the Galaxy and MassAssembly (GAMA) redshift survey we find it rapidly improves the spatial uniformity of our data, and naturally corrects for any spatial bias introduced by the 2dF multi-object spectrograph. We make conservative predictions for the final state of the GAMA redshift survey after our final allocation of time, and can be confident that even if worse than typical weather affects our observations, all of our main survey requirements will be met.

EMU is a wide-field radio continuum survey planned for the new Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) telescope. The primary goal of EMU is to make a deep (rms ∼ 10 μJy/beam) radio continuum survey of the entire Southern sky at 1.3 GHz, extending as far North as +30° declination, with a resolution of 10 arcsec. EMU is expected to detect and catalogue about 70 million galaxies, including typical star-forming galaxies up to z ∼ 1, powerful starbursts to even greater redshifts, and active galactic nuclei to the edge of the visible Universe. It will undoubtedly discover new classes of object. This paper defines the science goals and parameters of the survey, and describes the development of techniques necessary to maximise the science return from EMU.

Summary
INTRODUCTION
In 1903, the explorer Robert Scott was one of the first humans ever to see the dry valleys of Antarctica. He called them ‘valley(s) of the dead’ in which ‘we have seen no sign of life, … not even a moss or lichen’. A century later, we know that the soils and rocks are home to many microscopic organisms that Scott could not have seen.
The dry valleys are part of the small percentage of the land surface of the Antarctic continent that is ice-free, amounting to about 4000 km2, and thus have rock and soil surfaces that can be colonized by terrestrial organisms. They are an ancient polar desert, perhaps as much as 2 million years old, located in Victoria Land between about 77 and 79° south (Fig. 1). The valleys are in a precipitation shadow caused by the Transantarctic Mountains, which rise over 4000 m. The Antarctic dry valleys are now recognized as one of the harshest terrestrial environments on Earth, characterized by summer maximum temperatures that rarely exceed 0 °C and only a few tens of millimetres of precipitation, most of which falls as snow and is ablated by strong winds carrying dry air from the polar plateau - potential evaporation far exceeds precipitation (Fig. 1).

Summary
SUMMARY
In many ecological studies, soil carbon is regarded as a barely differentiated whole with little attention paid to its underlying characteristics.
Although it is widely appreciated that decomposer organisms are nearly infallible as degraders of organic molecules, there are marked differences in the utilisation of different components of organic matter by organisms depending on chemical and physical characteristics, location and availability in time in soil.
We discuss the characteristics of soil carbon as a substrate and emphasise a ‘soil metabolomic’ approach for characterising the range of molecules in complex, composite substrates, and the potential that stable isotope probing offers for linking organisms to their substrates via enrichment of their biomolecules as they exploit isotopically enriched substrates.
Using selected examples, we examine the influence of the chemical characteristics/quality, quantity, location and timing of supply of organic matter on the amount, activity and, where possible, the diversity of soil organisms.
We are some way from unifying relationships between the quality, quantity, location and timing of delivery or availability of soil carbon on the size, activity and diversity of soil organisms. However, we point ways forward in which the information on the physics, chemistry and management are linked to the biology of soils.
Introduction
Currency of soil carbon
Humans view soil carbon in various physical (e.g. aggregates, density fractions), chemical (e.g. carbohydrates, aromatic compounds), biological (e.g. microbial biomass) and even economic (e.g. dollars per tonne or carbon credits) ways which are not usually ecological.

To ensure the effective conservation of biodiversity the distribution of species needs to be accurately characterized and areas of high species richness located. For many taxa this can be achieved only by experienced taxonomists. Taxonomic research has a large input from non-professional or amateur researchers, in addition to professionals working at museums or universities. The decline of taxonomy and the number of taxonomists within the professional community has been widely publicized, but the trends in the activities of amateur taxonomists are unclear. Because amateurs contribute many valuable records of species occurrence this may have a disproportionate impact upon the information available for conservation planning and represents an underappreciated threat to conservation planning. We use taxonomic research by UK entomologists in order to evaluate the changing role of both amateur and professional taxonomists. We reviewed contributions by British-based authors to Entomologist's Monthly Magazine over the past century. Our results show that both amateur and professional taxonomy have undergone a long and persistent decline since the 1950s, in terms of both the number of contributors and the number of papers contributed. It is argued that the conservation community needs to help try and reverse the decline of taxonomy.

Sporadic medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) usually presents with a thyroid mass, cervical lymphadenopathy or other local cervical symptoms. Often the diagnosis is unsuspected pre-operatively. We report a unique case of a mixed follicular medullary thyroid carcinoma presenting as a tumour with extreme vascularity. The management of hypervascular thyroid tumours is discussed together with current controversies regarding persistent hypercalcitoninaemia.

An investigation was made during 1988 to test the hypothesis that ‘Grasslands Huia’ white clover (Trifolium repens L.) could be eliminated under close sheep grazing. The effects of grazing management, topography and fertilizer on the contribution of Huia plants to the white clover population in an 85 ha experimental upland pasture ecosystem in the southern North Island, New Zealand (lat. 40° 20′ S, long. 175° 50′ E, 125–350 m altitude) were quantified 11 years after oversowing. Replicated sampling sites (108 in total) were located on nine combinations of slope and aspect within grazing management treatments comprising rotational grazing with cattle (RC), rotational grazing with sheep (RS) and continuous grazing with sheep (CS), with high and low fertilizer treatments in each case. White clover occurrence, leaf area, phosphoglucoisomerase-2 (PGI-2) allele frequencies and the proportion of Grasslands Huia plants in the white clover population were determined at each site. White clover frequency was lower on steeper slopes. Aspect, slope and grazing management affected area of individual clover leaves. The proportion of Huia plants in the white clover population averaged 54·9, 49·0 and 33·6% for RC, RS and CS, respectively (P < 0·039, 5 D.F.). Fertilizer and topography did not affect the proportion of Huia. It was concluded that although Huia did persist after 11 years of close sheep grazing, its contribution to the total white clover population was unsatisfactory in some cases, and use of better adapted cultivars is suggested.

We have demonstrated a 3 to 13 times increase in the effective electro-optic (EO) coefficient of electrode poled nonlinear optical polymers using a conductive polymer cladding, compared to using passive polymer claddings. We have also demonstrated the lowest poling voltage to date, 300 V, for a 2 μm thick NLO polymer film. Since the cladding material is more conductive than the core material, the majority of the applied poling voltage is dropped across the core, realizing a higher EO coefficient than for conventional devices using passive polymer claddings and has the potential for in-situ poling. These results show promise for shorter, lower operating voltage devices.

Deep level Transient Spectroscopy (DLTS), Electron Beam Induced Current (EBIC), EBIC Diffusion Length Mapping (EBIC-DLM) and contactless Photoconductive Decay (PCD) were used to characterize both bulk substrates and epitaxially grown Silicon Carbide films. Traps as deep as 0.93 eV were observed via DLTS. These traps may play a role in the persistent photoconductivity effect. EBIC reveals the electrical activity of the well known triangular defects. However, only some of these defects display electrical activity consistent with that of 3C-SiC inclusions, others do not. Additionally, not all defects identified in the EBIC images are observable in the topographic SEM image, possibly indicating a new, yet unidentified defect. EBIC revealed the electrical activity of defects including micro-pipes, dislocations (or possibly growth step edge decoration), surface polish damage, and bulk defects. Diffusion length maps of SiC indicate wide variations in diffusion length on both microscopic and macroscopic scales. EBIC-DLMindicatedepitaxial 4H SiC resulted in diffusion lengths from 0.1 to 3 μm, while bulk values were less than 0.07 μm. PCD measurements indicate tens of nanosecond to microsecond variations in lifetime. Lifetime verses injection level variations are observed and explained on the basis of trap energy. The injection level dependence of lifetime was observed at various nitrogen doping concentrations. Finally, electron beam annealing is found to dramatically improve the minority carrier lifetime in epitaxial SiC.

Hall effect, deep level transient spectroscopy, optical absorption, and optical admittance spectroscopy were employed to determine the position of the vanadium acceptor and vanadiumnitrogen complex in vanadium- and nitrogen-doped 4H and 6H SiC. Hall effect results indicate that the acceptor position in 4H(6H) SiC is 0.80(0.66) eV beneath the conduction band edge. The DLTS signature of the defect in the 4H polytype showed an ionization energy of 806 meV and a capture cross section of 1.8×10−16 cmr−2 The optical absorption measurements proved that the acceptor level investigated is related to isolated vanadium, and therefore the vanadium acceptor level. Based upon DLTS and SIMS measurements, the maximum solubility of vanadium in SiC was determined to the 3×10−17 crn3. An examination of polarized light experiments indicates that vanadium also complexes with another element to form electronic(at 5000 cm−1) and vibrational absorption(at 683 cm−1) bands. While the other constituent cannot be identified, evidence suggests that nitrogen is a likely candidate. This complex introduces a deep level at Ec−0.78 eV as determined using optical admittance spectroscopy.

Schoenberg and the ‘Logic’ of Atonality
- G. W. Hopkins

- Article

In his recent biography of Schoenberg, Willi Reich quotes the composer's acknowledgement of ‘the compulsion of an inexorable but unconscious logic of harmonic construction’, and of ‘an inner compulsion that is stronger than education’, without making the point that musical analysts still tend to find atonal logic inextricable, and that the compositional procedures of a piece such as Op. 11 No. 3 can still not adequately be taught—even if it has made an appearance in a recent GCE syllabus. Reich himself ‘explains’ the emancipation of the dissonance as a thickening of polyphonic thought: there are ‘no dissonant chords’ in a horizontal line. It is, of course, a great deal less simple than that.
