Superannuation Reimagined: Moving Beyond the Origins to an Indigenous Focus
ABSTRACT Retirement income systems, such as superannuation, are meant to be non‐discriminatory and consider disadvantage faced by members of society. There are significant differences between the life expectancies of Indigenous and non‐Indigenous peoples. The gap in life expectancies is not considered when determining when Indigenous peoples can retire.

On the Prospects for African Philosophy in Australia
ABSTRACT This paper grapples with the situation of people of African descent in Australia by working through the constitution of the body of academic philosophy in the country. It contends with the parochialism of the Australian philosophical community and the prospects for the cultivation of greater pluralism. Taking African philosophy as one possible

Confessions of a Poverty Researcher: My Journey Through the Foothills of Scholarship
ABSTRACT This paper describes the key events, experiences and ideas that influenced the author's career as a poverty researcher. He describes how his early disillusion with economics was replaced by a spark of interest in social issues and how his migration from the UK to Australia in the mid‐1970s provided the impetus to begin what became a lifetime ...

Regioselectivities for epichlorohydrin ring‐opening over Brønsted and Lewis acid zeolites change by an order of magnitude upon replacing fractions of methanol with acetonitrile co‐solvent. Combining transient operando 13C‐NMR with traditional kinetic measurements reveals that these differences originate from competition between an SN1 pathway through ...

Excited States of Coherent Harmonic Qubits With Long‐Range Photon Coupling and Dissipation
When N qubits are strongly coupled with photons in a cavity, they can condense into a ground state with negative energy gap. Some new information is found on coherent transitions among excited states of this system, by simulating them numerically for small N.

The BRST invariant Lagrangian of the gravitationally interacting U(1)$U(1)$ gauge theory, namely the Quantum GraviElectro Dynamics (QGED). The Yan–Mills theory with the Hilbert–Einstein gravitational Lagrangian, namely the Yang–Mills–Utiyama (YMU) theory, is defined and quantised using the standard procedure. The theory is perturbatively renormalisable,
