Fundamental fields and compact objects: theory and astrophysical phenomenology

Epoch-making observational, theoretical and computational developments make this an exceptional time for the
understanding of gravity in the strong field regime. The recent detection of gravitational waves (GWs), together with other
ongoing experiments; the discovery of unexpected compact objects in General Relativity (GR); and the breakthroughs in the
field of Numerical Relativity (NR), make strong gravity a central player in the scientific scene. Exploring different scenarios in
this context is timely and synergies are mandatory, for such an endeavor.

This project focuses on the construction, theory, phenomenology and dynamics of new families of black holes (BHs) and
compact objects that are being discovered in GR in the presence of fundamental fields and alternative theories of gravity. Particular focus will be given to astrophysical phenomenology, including GW signals. The research proposed is split into three main items, which, however, are mutually connected:

(a) Construction and physical properties of ""hairy"" BHs and other compact objects, both in GR and other theories of gravity.
Using numerical methods for solving elliptic coupled PDEs, in different models, we shall construct solutions, and organize
them into publicly available libraries, of new types of compact objects, also addressing their physical and mathematical
properties.

(b) Astrophysical phenomenology I. We shall perform test-fields studies to address phenomenological properties of these
solutions, including shadows and lensing of light, accretion disks and X-ray spectrum, trajectories of stars, Quasi periodic oscillations, scattering of different fields. Using linear perturbation theory, linear stability of these objects and response to perturbations (such as ringdowns) will be studied.

(c) Astrophysical phenomenology II. Fully non-linear numerical evolutions will be performed, to study non-linear stability of these new objects and the GW signals of binaries, to be compared with observations.
Cezamat-Environment - self-organizing networks for real-time, wireless monitoring of natural environment

This Proposal aims to establish a new research Center of Excellence named CEZAMAT-Environment devoted to the fundamental study and practical implementation of self-organizing networks of chemical and biochemical sensors capable of massively parallel and spatially distributed sensing of environmental hazards and other parameters defining the status of natural resources (e.g., forests, or agricultural crop, aquatic ecosystems).The objective of the one-year action (covered by the CSA) is the development of a detailed and robust Business Plan for the setting-up the Center capable of attaining this long term vision.The goal will be achieved through joint management by the Teaming partners, i.e. The National Centre for Research and Development (Poland), CEZAMAT PW Sp. z o.o. (Poland), CEA-Tech (France), Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft (FhG, Germany), the two latter being Partners of Excellence.The Proposal responds to the work program “Spreading Excellence and Widening Participation,” which aims to reduce internal research and innovation disparities within the European Union by supporting research and innovation activities and systems in low performing countries. The Proposal addresses a specific challenge defined by the work program – namely, the presence of substantial disparities in the European Research and Innovation landscape, and also aims at establishing long-term and strategic partnership between Teaming partners. In the short-term perspective, we will actively seek the advice of the Partners how to best implement the operation and administrative protocols within our Center, especially how to foster cross-discipline collaboration while staying focused on the short-term milestones and long-term goals. In the long-term perspective, the Center will implement within its own structure and then promote to the entire region of Mazovia the best practices in research, innovation and management resulting in significant improvement of this Region’s research and innovation culture.
Influence of Freeze-Thaw Cycles on Mechanical Properties of Gypsum Determined Using the Impulse Excitation Method

Non-destructive methods for testing mechanical properties of materials spreads to many fields of investigation at present. A typical example of the use of non-destructive testing can be determination of the effect of freeze-thaw cycles on the mechanical properties of porous building materials. The great advantage of non-destructive testing, compared to destructive, is that still the same sample is tested and it excludes various negative effects such as technological indiscipline in the production of samples, different environment storage of samples prior to testing, recognition of cracks in the sample prior to testing, etc. The paper presents the development of modulus of elasticity on samples of hardened plaster according to the number of freeze-thaw cycles. Elastic moduli were determined using an impulse excitation method. For cyclic loading, the samples were saturated with water at 20 °C and tested in 8-hour cycles. Samples were removed from the water bath and placed in a freezer with a temperature lower than - 20 °C and after 8 hours they were placed again in the water bath for a period of eight hours. The temperature in the freezer was measured using platinum thermometers during the freeze-thaw cycles. The difference from 'dry' frost resistance was that the samples of hardened plaster were exposed to "wet" frost resistance, i.e. to the extreme load of the samples with the external climatic conditions.
A novel method for collective dimming of high intensity discharge lamps

High intensity discharge (HID) lamps take up a large percentage of the power consumption in the lighting. It is common to operate the HID lamps in 100% lighting state due to the difficulty of dimming control. This paper proposes a simple dimming method for them and manages to dim the lamp group collectively. A frequency control device is inserted between the power supply and the HID magnetic ballast. Because of the use of inductor in the magnetic ballast, its impedance increases with the frequency. Therefore, by changing the output frequency, the current flowing through HID lamps can be decreased/increased with the voltage being kept constant. Also, the generated waveforms of the frequency control device is discussed in this paper. Both simulation and experimental results are given to prove the dimming effect.
Resilience enhancement and risk control platform for communication infrastructure operators

Communications play a fundamental role in the economic and social well-being of the citizens and on operations of most of the CIs. Thus they are a primary target for criminals having a multiplier effect on the power of attacks and providing enormous resonance and gains. Also extreme weather events and natural disasters represents a challenge due to their increase in frequency and intensity requiring smarter resilience of the Communication CIs, which are extremely vulnerable due to the ever-increasing complexity of the architecture also in light of the evolution towards 5G, the extensive use of programmable platforms and exponential growth of connected devices. The fact that most enterprises still manage physical and cyber security independently represents a further challenge. 
RESISTO platform is an innovative solution for Communication CIs holistic situation awareness and enhanced resilience (aligned with ECSO objectives). Based on an Integrated Risk and Resilience analysis management and improvement process availing all resilience cycle phases (prepare, prevent, detect, absorb, etc.) and technical resilience capabilities (sense, model, infer, act, adopt), RESISTO implements an innovative Decision Support System to protect communication infrastructures from combined cyber-physical threats exploiting the Software Defined Security model on a suite of state of the art cyber/physical security components (Blockchain, Machine Learning, IoT security, Airborne threat detection, holistic audio-video analytics) and services (Responsible Disclosure Framework) for detection and reaction in presence of attacks or natural disasters.
Through RESISTO Communications Operators, will be able to implement a set of mitigation actions and countermeasures that significantly reduce the impact of negative events in terms of performance losses, social consequences, and cascading effects in particular by bouncing efficiently back to original and forward to operational states of operation.
And he built a crooked camera

The limitations of human perception make it impossible to grasp four spatial dimensions simultaneously. Visualization techniques of four-dimensional (4D) geometrical shapes rely on visualizing limited projections of the true shape into lower dimensions, often hindering the viewer's ability to grasp the complete structure, or to access its spatial structure with a natural 3D perspective. We propose a mobile visualization technique that enables viewers to better understand the geometry of 4D shapes, providing spatial freedom and leveraging the viewer's natural knowledge and experience of exploring 3D geometric shapes. Our prototype renders 3D intersections of the 4D object, while allowing the user continuous control of varying values of the fourth dimension, enabling the user to interactively browse and explore a 4D shape using a simple camera-lens-style physical zoom metaphor.
“Is It Really Confidential?” A Content Analysis of Online Information About Sexual and Reproductive Health Services for Adolescents

Many young people are not aware of their rights to confidential sexual and reproductive health (SRH) care. Given that online health information seeking is common among adolescents, we examined how health education Web content about SRH for young people addresses confidentiality.In Spring 2017, we conducted Google keyword searches (e.g., "teens" and "sex education") to identify health promotion Web sites operated by public health/medical organizations in the United States and providing original content about SRH for adolescents/young adults. Thirty-two Web sites met inclusion criteria. We uploaded Web site PDFs to qualitative analysis software to identify confidentiality-related content and conduct thematic analysis of the 29 Web sites with confidentiality content.Sexually transmitted infection testing and contraception were the SRH services most commonly described as confidential. Clear and comprehensive definitions of confidentiality were lacking; Web sites typically described confidentiality in relation to legal rights to receive care without parental consent or notification. Few mentioned the importance of time alone with a medical provider. Only half of the Web sites described potential inadvertent breaches of confidentiality associated with billing and even fewer described other restrictions to confidentiality practices (e.g., mandatory reporting laws). Although many Web sites recommended that adolescents verify confidentiality, guidance for doing so was not routinely provided. Information about confidentiality often encouraged adolescents to communicate with parents.There is a need to provide comprehensive information, assurances, and resources about confidentiality practices while also addressing limitations to confidentiality in a way that does not create an undue burden on adolescents or reinforce and exacerbate confidentiality concerns.

Lo scudo d’oro. Lingue e ritratti dell’alterità in una zingaresca romana del Seicento

Caratteristiche del panorama culturale romano, le zingaresche sono commediole in versi rivolte a un pubblico popolare rappresentate sia in occasione di celebrazioni cittadine che di festeggiamenti privati. Nonostante godessero di un ampio successo, per molto tempo non hanno beneficiato di un’adeguata attenzione da parte degli studiosi. Il presente contributo si inserisce in una più ampia rivalutazione del teatro seicentesco intrapresa negli ultimi anni dalla critica ed ha come oggetto d’indagine Lo scudo d’oro, ovvero li dui arricchiti di Andrea della Grazia romano, zingaresca che ho recentemente scoperto in un fascicolo della biblioteca dell’Università di Harvard (Houghton Library, *IC6 A100 B670z). Lo scudo d’oro per il suo carattere plurilingue e per la peculiarità dei personaggi rappresentati può essere considerato una significativa testimonianza della Roma barocca, città cosmopolita in cui coesistevano diverse varietà linguistiche e altrettante figure sociali trasposte sulla scena teatrale attraverso le maschere della Zingara, del Norcino e del Giudeo.

Illuminating aptamers and ribozymes for biomolecular tagging and fluorogen activation

RNAs are linear biopolymers that consist of only four types of building blocks, but can fold into complex three-dimensional structures that are endowed with selective, high-affinity ligand-binding abilities known as aptamers, and catalytic activities known as ribozymes. Genome projects have brought the surprising insight that a large part of the human genome is transcribed into RNAs, but only a very small fraction is translated into proteins. The actual number of noncoding RNAs with specific functions is currently unknown, but many are considered as prominent regulators of cellular functions. Posttranscriptional modifications of RNA add an extra layer of complexity, but their regulatory roles in RNA metabolism are only poorly understood. Despite the relative simplicity in molecular composition, the available methodological repertoire for manipulation, interrogation and visualization of RNA is rather limited. This project aims to solve the challenge of RNA labeling in both fixed and living cells, using aptamers and ribozymes for RNA imaging and functional characterization. We introduce the term illumizymes for novel tools that attach bio-orthogonal tags and fluorophores to specific RNA sequences, in vitro and in vivo. Ribozymes and aptamers for small, stable, and specific labels will be identified by in vitro selection and systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX) to activate the fluorescence of latent chromophores by restricting their conformational flexibility and/or formation of covalent bonds by new bio-orthogonal reactions. Using naturally inspired, cell-permeable and non-toxic ligands, we will specifically select for increased brightness and photostability, and evolve illumizymes into color-switching probes for RNA microscopy. The new genetically encodable RNA devices will find widespread applications in diverse disciplines to enlighten our understanding of cellular RNA functions in health and disease.
Cloud4Psi: cloud computing for 3D protein structure similarity searching

Popular methods for 3D protein structure similarity searching, especially those that generate high-quality alignments such as Combinatorial Extension (CE) and Flexible structure Alignment by Chaining Aligned fragment pairs allowing Twists (FATCAT) are still time consuming. As a consequence, performing similarity searching against large repositories of structural data requires increased computational resources that are not always available. Cloud computing provides huge amounts of computational power that can be provisioned on a pay-as-you-go basis. We have developed the cloud-based system that allows scaling of the similarity searching process vertically and horizontally. Cloud4Psi (Cloud for Protein Similarity) was tested in the Microsoft Azure cloud environment and provided good, almost linearly proportional acceleration when scaled out onto many computational units.Cloud4Psi is available as Software as a Service for testing purposes at: http://cloud4psi.cloudapp.net/. For source code and software availability, please visit the Cloud4Psi project home page at http://zti.polsl.pl/dmrozek/science/cloud4psi.htm.
Submicrosecond-timescale readout of carbon nanotube mechanical motion

We report fast readout of the motion of a carbon nanotube mechanical resonator. A close-proximity high electron mobility transistor amplifier is used to increase the bandwidth of the measurement of nanotube displacements from the kHz to the MHz regime. Using an electrical detection scheme with the nanotube acting as a mixer, we detect the amplitude of its mechanical motion at room temperature with an intermediate frequency of 6 MHz and a timeconstant of 780 ns, both up to five orders of magnitude faster than achieved before. The transient response of the mechanical motion indicates a ring-down time faster than our enhanced time resolution, placing an upper bound on the contribution of energy relaxation processes to the room temperature mechanical quality factor.
