Abstract:
With the death of Professor Sir Mark Oliphant, the first President of the Australian Academy of Science, Australia lost one of its most distinguished scientists. A tall, handsome man with a shock of white hair and a distinctive voice and laugh, he was well informed on a wide range of scientific matters and expressed firm views on their social consequences. He enjoyed wide respect throughout the nation as a great Australian, his influence spreading far beyond the discipline of physics, to which he made seminal contributions both through his own research and his leadership. The Academy will remember and honour him for his leading role in its establishment, and for his continuing association with it until the last years of his long life.Oliphant's outstanding international reputation was based on his pioneering discoveries in nuclear physics in Cambridge in the 1930s and his remarkable contributions to wartime radar research and to the development of the atomic bomb. In 1950, after an absence of 23 years, Oliphant returned to Australia, where he founded the Research School of Physical Sciences at the Australian National University and pioneered the creation in Canberra of a national university dedicated to the conduct of research at the highest international level.To the layman, Mark Oliphant was well known for his often outspoken comments on those matters about which he felt so strongly: social justice, peace, atomic warfare, the environment, academic freedom and autonomy, to name a few. The scientific community will remember him as a physicist for his pioneering experiments with Ernest Rutherford during momentous years that saw the birth of nuclear physics, as a physicist/engineer for his ingenuity and determination as one of the pioneers of high-energy particle accelerators, and as a science administrator and public advocate for science.

Abstract:
Abstract This article investigates the history of the International Television Federation, or Intertel. A collaboration between telecasters from the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia, Intertel throughout the 1960s produced and distributed public affairs documentaries for an international audience. Intertel’s members positioned public affairs programming in the 1960s as an “effective weapon for peace.” By making the nations of the world legible to one another, Intertel programs sought to deploy the international circulation of television texts as a means to diminish tensions in a world defined by uneven economic growth, Cold War ideological battles, and the specter of nuclear warfare. Drawing on archival materials, press reports, and the programs themselves, this essay offers an institutional history of the program’s development, expansion, and demise, as well as an analysis of its politics and ideological premises.

Abstract:
Western experts and media fail to decrypt the revolutionary military strategy of the Russian army in Ukraine. The West should move out of entrenched positions, analyze its own wars it has waged over the past three decades and observe what is really happening in order to perceive the Russian invasion of Ukraine as it actually is. The article presents an unbiased analysis of the first phase of Russia's military operation, from late February through most of March 2022. The author concludes that the new Russian art of warfare is based on a global multifaceted "hybrid" strategy encompassing nuclear deterrence, hypersonic weapons, precision fire strikes, limited use of ground troops and negotiations with the enemy. This military-political strategy of V. Putin could be qualified as "hypersonic".

Abstract:
Ian McCarthy was one of Australia's outstanding theoretical physicists. He was born in country South Australia and, after a PhD at the University of Adelaide, and periods of work in the UK and USA, he returned to South Australia where for several decades he led an outstanding research program at Flinders University. Ian's career had two major stages. In the first, he made major contributions to nuclear reaction theory, including very important insights into the physical consequences of the optical model and state-of-the-art calculations of proton knock-out from nuclei. In the second phase, he imported the concept of the knock-out reaction to atomic, molecular and solid state physics. Using the (e,2e) reaction, for which he and his colleagues developed the theoretical framework, his group made major contributions in these areas.

Abstract:
This article analyses the Japanese art collective Chim↑pom and their interventions in contemporary and historical aspects of nuclear politics and the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The study situates Chim↑pom’s artistic work in a context of a new governmentality, theoretically developed by the philosopher Brian Massumi (2009). The ”environmental” governmentality is – contrary to Michel Foucault’s (2008) concept biopolitics – not built on calculation and statistics, or securing a flourishing population, but on neoliberal economization of risk and disaster. Intertwined as a part of the environmental governmentality is the neoconservative militarization, that responds to the very same unstable processes, but with military force. These processes are ”environmental”, not because they are ecological or green, but because they act on the forces and powers of open and unstable processes, the forces that we sometimes call natural disasters or accidents. The aim of the article is to analyse Chim↑pom’s work on the Fukushima crisis and the historical traumas of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in the light of this new governmentality in Japan. Chim↑pom’s relational aesthetics also feeds on these open-ended and unstable of processes, however in terms of social and emotional orientations. The historical conditions that have discursively separated nuclear power as ”peaceful use of nuclear energy” from its disastrous military and warfare use is the hegemony of rational technocratic based in a modern liberal ”biopolitics”. This modernization has built on dichotomies such as that between body and mind, reason and emotion, nature and culture. Chim↑pom thematise nuclear politics from the perspective of those who has been silenced and ignored by this dichotomization, or those

Abstract:
This article explores artistic production in the region of Oceania that resists the ahistorical and future-oriented temporality of climate change discourse, as it perpetuates colonial structures of power by denying Indigenous futures and ignoring the violent histories that have led to the current climate breakdown. In the video poem Anointed (2018), prominent climate justice activist Kathy Jetñil-Kijiner strategically combines spoken word poetry with visual montage in order to situate Cold War nuclear tests by the US military within the same temporal plane as rising sea levels currently threatening the Marshall Islands. Katerina Teaiwa’s exhibition Project Banaba (2017) similarly mobilizes archival imagery in order to visualize the genealogical relationship between Banabans and the settler landscapes of Aotearoa New Zealand and Australia. Sean Connelly’s architectural and design practice in Hawaii Futures, an ongoing digital design project that engages with the threats of sea level rise and coastal erosion in Hawaii, problematizes linear formations of time and favours a future structured around cyclical, ecological time instead. Interacting with vastly different sites, strategies and temporalities, these three multidisciplinary projects provide critical alternatives to the ahistorical framing of colonial climate change in Oceania and thus play a crucial role in constructing a more just future.

Abstract:
This portfolio examines the possibility of my project ‘Just Keep Going’ series to nurture resilience for those experiencing uncanniness during periods of change and re-organization in the aftermath of extreme experiences. Experiences in an action-oriented non-verbal polyphony environment that prioritizes the uniqueness of a holistic self while accepting the existence of diverse individuals who are participating in collective survival could foster that resilience. My practice-led research aims to explore an expanded application of my Ikebana practice to my public Spatial Neural-Architectures while exploring a new way of understanding security, survival, and wellbeing. My research informs my art practice that includes the practices arising out of my life experience as a transnational voluntary evacuee to Australia from the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster in Japan. My portfolio shows the transformation of my artwork and my everyday life. I investigate how my art practice could offer a therapeutic experience as well as a new cultural framework by examining the methods of Open Dialogue, the Biophilia Hypothesis, Ikebana Philosophy, and Sand-play Therapy. These methods open up new possibilities for a socially engaged practice that addresses collective traumas in the midst/aftermath of global crisis and the social changes necessary for collective survival.

Abstract:
OPAL is a 20 MWth multi-purpose open-pool type Research Reactor located at Lucas Heights, Australia. It was designed, built and commissioned by INVAP between 2000 and 2006 and it has been operated by the Australia Nuclear Science and Technology Organization (ANSTO) showing a very good overall performance. On November 2016, OPAL reached 10 years of continuous operation, becoming one of the most reliable and available in its kind worldwide, with an unbeaten record of being fully operational 307 days a year. One of the enhanced safety features present in this state-of-art reactor is the availability of an independent, diverse and redundant Second Shutdown System (SSS), which consists in the drainage of the heavy water reflector contained in the Reflector Vessel. As far as high quality experimental data is available from reactor commissioning and operation stages and even from early component design validation stages, several models both regarding neutronic and thermo-hydraulic approaches have been developed during recent years using advanced calculations tools and the novel capabilities to couple them. These advanced models were developed in order to assess the capability of such codes to simulate and predict complex behaviours and develop highly detail analysis. In this framework, INVAP developed a three-dimensional CFD model that represents the detailed hydraulic behaviour of the Second Shutdown System for an actuation scenario, where the heavy water drainage 3D temporal profiles inside the Reflector Vessel can be obtained. This model was validated, comparing the computational results with experimental measurements performed in a real-size physical model built by INVAP during early OPAL design engineering stages. Furthermore, detailed 3D Serpent Monte Carlo models are also available, which have been already validated with experimental data from reactor commissioning and operating cycles. In the present work the neutronic and thermohydraulic models, available for OPAL reactor, are coupled by means of a shared unstructured mesh geometry definition of relevant zones inside the Reflector Vessel. Several scenarios, both regarding coupled and uncoupled neutronic & thermohydraulic behavior, are presented and analyzed, showing the capabilities to develop and manage advanced modelling that allows to predict multi-physics variables observed when an in-depth performance analysis of a Research Reactor like OPAL is carried out.

Abstract:
Production of cloned nonhuman primate embryos has been reported using mature oocytes obtained from donors treated in vivo with a high dose of recombinant human FSH (r-hFSH, 35 IU per day for 10 days). The disadvantages of this approach are the high cost of hormones and the need to use the oocytes shortly after collection. Our study aimed to investigate the possibility of using initial in vivo treatment with a reduced FSH dose followed by in vitro culture for long periods of up to 3 days to produce mature monkey oocytes as host ooplasts for somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT). Adult female long-tailed Macaque (Macaca fascicularis) monkeys were treated with r-hFSH (Serono, Aubonne, Switzerland, 35 IU per day, i.m.) either for 10 days with an injection of hCG (1000 IU, i/m) 34 h before oocyte collection (G.I) or with only r-hFSH for 7 days (G.II). Cumulus oocyte complexes (COCs) were collected by follicular aspiration and then cultured in TCM-199 medium (GIBCO) supplemented with estradiol-17β, FSH, LH, and 10% FCS at 39°C in an incubator with 5% CO2 in air. The maturation rate based on the level of cumulus expansion and the presence of the first polar body was recorded at the moment of collection and during 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h of in vitro maturation (IVM). For SCNT, the mature Metaphase II oocytes were separated from cumulus cells and selected for enucleation in the presence of cytochalasin B (Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA). Skin fibroblasts obtained from adult monkeys were cultured in DMEM+ 10% FCS and induced to quiescence in DMEM 0% FCS 2 days before use. A single cell was transferred under the zona of each enucleated oocyte. Couplets were fused with two direct current (DC) pulses of 220 V/mm for 25 μs in Zimmerman medium. Fused oocytes were cultured in medium containing cyclohexamide for 6 h before placing them into monkey culture medium (Cook, Brisbane, Australia). The average number of oocytes collected per animal were 21.2 (n = 18) and 18.6 (n = 12) for the G.I and G.II treatments, respectively. For G.I, the rate of COCs with fully expanded cumulus was 42% at collection and was maximal (80%) at Day 1 of IVM. For G.II, fully expanded cumulus was not observed at the time of collection and during the first 2 days of IVM, but 75% of COCs had full cumulus expansion by Day 3 of IVM. The rates of intact and fused oocytes were 50.3% for G.I and 55.4% for G.II. From the fused oocytes, 67.8% and 64.4% developed to the 4- to 8-cell stages at Days 2–3 after nuclear transfer for G.I and G.II, respectively. From these data, it can be concluded that this approach can be applied to optimize production of mature oocytes for non-human primate SCNT and ART (assisted reproductive technologies) programs.
