description: We probe photo-induced loss for chemically stable bosonic $^{23}$Na$^{87}$Rb and $^{23}$Na$^{39}$K molecules in chopped optical dipole traps where the molecules spend a significant time in the dark. We expect the effective two-body decay to be largely suppressed in chopped traps due to the small expected complex lifetimes of about $13μ$s and $6μ$s for $^{23}$Na$^{87}$Rb and $^{23}$Na$^{39}$K respectively. However, instead we do observe near-universal loss even at the lowest chopping frequencies we can probe. Our data thus either suggest a so far unknown loss mechanism or a drastic underestimation of the complex lifetime by at least one to two orders of magnitude.

description: We identify multiresolution subspaces giving rise via Hankel transforms to Bessel functions. They emerge as orthogonal systems derived from geometric Hilbert-space considerations, the same way the wavelet functions from a multiresolution scaling wavelet construction arise from a scale of Hilbert spaces. We study the theory of representations of the $C^{\ast}$-algebra $% O_{ν+1}$ arising from this multiresolution analysis. A connection with Markov chains and representations of $O_{ν+1}$ is found. Projection valued measures arising from the multiresolution analysis give rise to a Markov trace for quantum groups $SO_q$.

description: We propose a quantum non-demolition method - giant Faraday rotation - to detect a single electron spin in a quantum dot inside a microcavity where negatively-charged exciton strongly couples to the cavity mode. Left- and right-circularly polarized light reflected from the cavity feels different phase shifts due to cavity quantum electrodynamics and the optical spin selection rule. This yields giant and tunable Faraday rotation which can be easily detected experimentally. Based on this spin-detection technique, a scalable scheme to create an arbitrary amount of entanglement between two or more remote spins via a single photon is proposed.

Optimal Dynamic Resource Allocation for Multi-Antenna Broadcasting with Heterogeneous Delay-Constrained Traffic
Creators: name: Zhang, Rui
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: Information Theory (cs.IT)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: This paper is concerned with dynamic resource allocation in a cellular wireless network with slow fading for support of data traffic having heterogeneous transmission delay requirements. The multiple-input single-output (MISO) fading broadcast channel (BC) is of interest where the base station (BS) employs multiple transmit antennas to realize simultaneous downlink transmission at the same frequency to multiple mobile users each having a single receive antenna. An information-theoretic approach is taken for characterizing capacity limits of the fading MISO-BC under various transmission delay considerations. First, this paper studies transmit optimization at the BS when some users have delay-tolerant ``packet'' data and the others have delay-sensitive ``circuit'' data for transmission at the same time. Based on the convex optimization framework, an online resource allocation algorithm is derived that is amenable to efficient cross-layer implementation of both physical (PHY) -layer multi-antenna transmission and media-access-control (MAC) -layer multiuser rate scheduling. Secondly, this paper investigates the fundamental throughput-delay tradeoff for transmission over the fading MISO-BC. By comparing the network throughput under completely relaxed versus strictly zero transmission delay constraint, this paper characterizes the limiting loss in sum capacity due to the vanishing delay tolerance, termed the delay penalty, under some prescribed user fairness for transmit rate allocation.

description: This paper investigates quantum diffusion of matter waves in two-dimensional random potentials, focussing on expanding Bose-Einstein condensates in spatially correlated optical speckle potentials. Special care is taken to describe the effect of dephasing, finite system size, and an initial momentum distribution. We derive general expressions for the interference-renormalized diffusion constant, the disorder-averaged probability density distribution, the variance of the expanding atomic cloud, and the localized fraction of atoms. These quantities are studied in detail for the special case of an inverted-parabola momentum distribution as obtained from an expanding condensate in the Thomas-Fermi regime. Lastly, we derive quantitative criteria for the unambiguous observation of localization effects in a possible 2D experiment.

Year: 1974

description: Some University historians indicate that the Targum was first published as an annual in 1867, but of this we have no extant evidence. In January 1869, the Targum as we now know it, made its appearance as a monthly paper that concerned itself with student “literary contributions” and college news as well as serving as a vehicle for bringing news to alumni and the general public. The newspaper, which originally was for sale, varied in frequency over the years as did its title (The Targum, Rutgers Targum, Rutgers Daily Targum, and Daily Targum). The newspaper has continuously been published since 1869 with the exception of 19 months during the second world war, between February 1944 and October 1945. The Targum was published by the students of Rutgers College, and later Rutgers University—New Brunswick represented through the years as the Targum Association, Rutgers Targum Association, and Rutgers College Targum. As a student organization, the Targum operated under the oversight of the dean of students and student government but in October 1980, the Targum became an independent college paper.
Tra pubblico e privato: reti familiari e relazioni di genere nel lungo Ottocento
Creators: name: Varriale, Marcella
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II
Year: 2008

description: La ricerca ha come oggetto di studio le scritture edite e inedite di donne che sono legate a vario titolo con la figura di Antonio Ranieri, avvocato, letterato, deputato parlamentare, patriota napoletano. L’analisi abbraccia il lungo Ottocento italiano poiché il fondo Ranieri raccoglie lettere e scritti prodotti tra il Risorgimento e il primo conflitto mondiale. Attraverso la categoria di genere si sono mostrati gli sviluppi delle relazioni familiari in tre generazioni successive e l’apporto femminile e maschile alla costruzione dell’Italia. Enrichetta Capecelatro Carafa, nipote di Ranieri, scrive i Ricordi, che si configura non tanto un’autobiografia, quanto un’opera storica che raccoglie la descrizione della Napoli di fine ‘800 e della propria famiglia che ha partecipato al Risorgimento: l’onore della famiglia viene celebrato attraverso la presenza alle lotte nazionali. Il contributo delle donne alla storia è mostrato anche da altre figure: Cesira Pozzolini Siciliani e Fanny Arndt emergono come custodi delle memorie di patrioti o come studiose di storia. In quanto tali esse si sono adoperate per costruire testimonianze della storia del Risorgimento, che risulta sempre più come un movimento di massa. Infine è stato osservato lo stretto rapporto tra la sfera pubblica e privata. Le corrispondenti di Antonio Ranieri si rivolgono al deputato in qualità di interposta persona: chiedono infatti raccomandazioni per i propri mariti, padri, fratelli, figli, talora per altre donne o per se stesse. Un sistema clientelare consente loro di partecipare a quella sfera pubblica dalla quale sono escluse formalmente dopo l’Unità. Infine l’amicizia può essere considerato l’altro filo conduttore della corrispondenza con Antonio Ranieri. Si tratta di lunghe corrispondenze che molte mittenti italiane intrattengono con quest’ultimo, discutendo con lui di letteratura e di politica.

Nerve Conduction Studies: Normative Data from Side-To-Side Comparison
Creators: name: Zeenat Qureshi Stroke Institutes
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: Introduction— While side-to-side nerve conduction studies are assumed to be symmetric in healthy subjects, there are no evidence-based guidelines defining cutoff values for pathological side-to-side differences. A general rule of thumb is the 50% rule, the validity of which has not been proven in literature. The objective of this study is to determine normative reference data for side-to-side comparison of the following nerve conduction study parameters in healthy subjects: compound motor action potential (CMAP), motor and sensory nerve conduction velocity (NCV), motor distal latency (DL), motor F-wave (F), and sensory nerve action potential (SNAP).Methods— A total of 100 healthy subjects underwent nerve conduction studies using standard protocol. Side-to-side average difference and percent difference was calculated for each study parameter. Abnormal cut off values were established using the ‘two standard deviations’ rule. Average side-to-side differences were correlated with demographic variables.Results— For the motor parameters, the radial and plantar nerves had a high degree of side-to-side variability. For all other nerves, the range of cutoffs were well below 50% for every study parameter (NCV: 17-21%, DL: 20-43%, F:10-29%), with the exception of CMAP (37-67%). For the sensory nerves’ parameters, while SNAP had a high degree of side-to-side variability (64-81%), NCV had cutoff values below 50% for all nerves (17-41%). Side-to-side differences were not significantly associated with age or gender for any of the nerves studied.Discussion— This study provides normative reference values for the average side-to-side difference of motor and sensory nerve conduction, and identifies potential thresholds for pathological side-to-side differences, independent of age and gender.

description: This paper presents a comprehensive approach to the evaluation of macroscopic material parameters for natural stone and quarry masonry. To that end, a reliable non-linear material model on a meso-scale is developed to cover the random arrangement of stone blocks and quasi-brittle behaviour of both basic components, as well as the impaired cohesion and tensile strength on the interface between the blocks and mortar joints. The paper thus interrelates the following three problems: (i) definition of a suitable periodic unit cell (PUC) representing a particular masonry structure; (ii) derivation of material parameters of individual constituents either experimentally or running a mixed numerical-experimental problem; (iii) assessment of the macroscopic material parameters including the tensile and compressive strengths and fracture energy.

Cats vs. Spectre: An Axiomatic Approach to Modeling Speculative Execution Attacks

Subjects: subject: Cryptography and Security (cs.CR)

description: The Spectre family of speculative execution attacks have required a rethinking of formal methods for security. Approaches based on operational speculative semantics have made initial inroads towards finding vulnerable code and validating defenses. However, with each new attack grows the amount of microarchitectural detail that has to be integrated into the underlying semantics. We propose an alternative, light-weight and axiomatic approach to specifying speculative semantics that relies on insights from memory models for concurrency. We use the CAT modeling language for memory consistency to specify execution models that capture speculative control flow, store-to-load forwarding, predictive store forwarding, and memory ordering machine clears. We present a bounded model checking framework parametrized by our speculative CAT models and evaluate its implementation against the state of the art. Due to the axiomatic approach, our models can be rapidly extended to allow our framework to detect new types of attacks and validate defenses against them.

Study of the t-channel single top quark production and decay through
t → Wb → eνb at LHC with the CMS Experiment
Creators: name: Merola, Mario
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II
Year: 2011

description: The thesis presents a data analysis work performed in the context of the CMS experiment at the LHC, with the aim of measuring the cross section of single top produced in t-channel and decaying through t → Wb → eνb.

First a brief introduction on the Standard Model of elementary particles is given, followed by a description of the LHC accelerator and the CMS detector. Then the main physics results obtained by LHC in the first years of data-taking are presented and a section devoted to theoretical and experimental state of the art concerning the top quark physics concludes the introductory part of the thesis. The last two chapter are dedicated to a detailed description of the analysis performed. It is based on data collected by CMS in 2010, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.1/pb, with an update using 920.7/pb of 2011 data taking. The measurement of single top t-channel cross section is in the end reported together with a measurement of the CKM matrix element |Vtb|.
Interaction of peptides and small molecules with biological targets

Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II
Year: 2011

description: During my PhD course, I focused my attention on the conformational analysis of peptides that interact with GPCR and ligand-receptor interactions from NMR spectroscopy with possible application to cytotoxic agents binding to DNA.
In particular, I investigated the conformational behaviour of peptide analogues of Urotensin, Melanocortin and Somatostatin in water solution and membrane mimetic environment (SDS and DPC micelles).
Another research field was the NMR-based screening as potent technique for the identification of small molecules that interact with macromolecule targets. Several methods based on the ligand observation have been proposed in the literature, among these WaterLOGSY (water-ligand observed via gradient spectroscopy), and STD-NMR (saturation transfer difference) experiments. I applied these NMR techniques for the evaluation of the DNA interactions of a new series of thiophen-naphthoquinones with interesting cytotoxic activity.
Oncolytic adenovirus dl922-947 targets the DNA damage signaling pathway and enhances the effects of radiation therapy
Creators: name: Abagnale, Antonella
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II
Year: 2011

description: Replication selective oncolytic viruses (OVs) are a rapidly expanding
therapeutic platform for cancer treatment. OVs are characterized by genetic
alterations that ablate critical viral protein functions essential for viral
replication in normal cells, but non-essential in tumor cells, thus targeting viral
replication to tumor cells.
dl1520 was the first oncolytic virus described, and we have demonstrated that
dl1520 is effective against anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) cells and tumor
xenografts; its antineoplastic effects are enhanced by paclitaxel, doxorubicin,
lovastatin and ionising radiation. We have also shown that the second
generation oncolytic adenovirus dl922-947 possesses a greater antitumor effect
than dl1520 against ATC cells, and that the anti-VEGF monoclonal antibody,
Bevacizumab, increased the effects of dl922-947 by improving viral
distribution within the tumor mass. Furthermore, we have also shown that
AZD1152, a selective Aurora B kinase inhibitor, negatively affects the growth
of anaplastic thyroid carcinoma cells and enhances the effects of oncolytic
virus dl922-947.
So far, preclinical and clinical studies have clearly shown the antineoplastic
potential of oncolytic viruses, at least for local treatment, but have also
highlighted the need to find associations that could improve their activity.
Association of viruses with specific combinations, not only able to directly kill
tumor cells but also to increase viral oncolytic activity, would represent a
powerful therapeutic tool for the treatment of human neoplasia, in particular for
diseases lacking of effective treatment.
The main treatment of ATC consists of irradiation plus chemotherapeutic
drugs. In order to identify novel treatment able to enhance the effects of OVs, I
have evaluated the effects of ionising radiation in combination with dl922-947,
focusing my attention on which type of cell death was activated in the
combined treatment. Moreover, I have studied the effects of dl922-947 on the
DNA damage response pathway and I have also evaluated the effects of an
ATM inhibitor on dl922-947’s activity.

VALUTAZIONE DELLE CELLULE T REGOLATORIE IN CANI NATURALMENTE INFETTI DA LEISHMANIA INFANTUM
Creators: name: Serretiello, Serena
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II
Year: 2011

description: La Leishmaniosi canina (CL) è una grave malattia sistemica parassitaria endemica in molti paesi del bacino del Mediterraneo inclusa l’Italia. La reazione immunitaria al parassita è fondamentale per l’esito dell’infezione e la risposta al trattamento. Un complesso sistema di meccanismi aspecifici è alla base della risposta del sistema immunitario. I sistemi protettivi comprendono meccanismi intrinseci legati all’attivazione da parte dell’antigene e alla differenziazione delle cellule T, oltre che meccanismi mediati da popolazioni cellulari soppressorie, recentemente identificate come CD4+, FoXP3 e cellule T regolatorie (Treg). Nell’uomo il ruolo delle T reg nella prevenzione di una risposta autoimmune dannosa ed il loro coinvolgimento attivo nella modulazione della risposta immunitaria contro gli agenti infettivi e le cellule “trasformate” mutate, è stato ampiamente descritto. Nel cane il ruolo di questa sottopopolazione cellulare nella partecipazione alla risposta immunitaria contro agenti infettivi è tutt’ora poco conosciuto. Questo lavoro studia il ruolo delle cellule T reg in cani con Leishmania tramite l’analisi delle varie sottopopolazioni di linfociti T e dei valori del gruppo di T reg in 20 cani infetti  e 10 cani sani. I nostri risultati indicano che i soggetti  con infezione da Leishmania sono caratterizzati da un notevole incremento della percentuale di cellule T citotossiche (CD8+ e CD3+) con un decremento del rapporto CD4/CD8. Una significativa riduzione delle T reg è stata inoltre osservata nei cani infetti. E’ stata anche dimostrata una correlazione negativa tra i livelli di T reg e dei linfociti T citotossici (CD8+, CD3+) in tutti gli animali.
Questi risultati dimostrano che in corso di CL la risposta infiammatoria  caratterizzata da aumentati livelli di cellule T citotossiche è correlata ad un notevole decremento dei meccanismi regolatori cellulo- mediati, rappresentati dalle cellule T reg. In questo contesto, la persistenza del parassita potrebbe rappresentare un potente elemento di attivazione utile al mantenimento di una attiva risposta immunitaria citotossica tramite la riduzione dei meccanismi difensivi dipendenti dalle T reg. Si può ipotizzare che quanto descritto possa essere alla base di patologie immunomediate, ampiamente descritte in corso di CL.

description: I biomarcatori attualmente disponibili non sono in grado di identificare l'ischemia miocardica in assenza di necrosi concomitante. Al fine di superare questo limite e per incrementare la potenza diagnostica, abbiamo valutato l'attivazione di tre MAP-chinasi, ERK 1/2, JNK e p38, nei linfociti T di pazienti con sindrome coronarica acuta. Abbiamo incluso nel nostro studio sessanta pazienti consecutivi ricoverati nel nostro Istituto per angina instabile (UA, N=22), infarto miocardico senza sopraslivellamento del tratto ST (NSTEMI, N=19) o infarto miocardico con sopraslivellamento del tratto ST (STEMI, N=19). Due differenti gruppi sono stati confrontati come controlli: soggetti sani (CTRL, N=20) e pazienti con cardiopatia ischemica cronica (CAD, N=21). L'attivazione delle MAP-chinasi in linfociti T, misurata dai livelli di fosfo-ERK 1/2, fosfo-JNK e fosfo-p38, è stata valutata mediante analisi citofluorimetrica che ha rilevato livelli significativamente aumentati di fosfo ERK 1/2 in pazienti con angina instabile rispetto ai controlli. Nei pazienti con angina instabile non sono state riscontrate variazioni significative dei livelli di fosfo-JNK rispetto ad entrambe i gruppi di controllo. I gruppi NSTEMI e STEMI hanno mostrato un incremento statisticamente significativo sia di fosfo-ERK 1/2 che di fosfo-JNK rispetto ai controlli. In tutti i gruppi con sindrome coronarica acuta sono stati riportati livelli significativamente aumentati di fosfo-p38 rispetto ai controlli, eccetto che nel gruppo con cardiopatia ischemica cronica (CAD). Le curve ROC hanno mostrato che un valore cut-off di intensità del segnale citofluorimetrico di 22.5 per fosfo-ERK 1/2 è in grado di discriminare in maniera significativa pazienti con angina instabile da pazienti con angina stabile con una sensibilità del 78% ed una specificità del 90%. Perciò una attivazione differenziale delle MAP-chinasi nei linfociti T identifica i pazienti con sindrome coronarica acuta. Dunque pazienti con angina instabile sono identificati con elevata specificità da livelli aumentati di ERK 1/2 attivata e normali di JNK. Questi dati potrebbero indicare quindi un nuovo strumento molecolare da utilizzare nella diagnosi di angina instabile.

description: We show that a certain superfield formalism can be used to find an off-shell supersymmetric description for some supersymmetric field theories where conventional superfield formalism does not work. This "new" formalism contains even auxiliary variables in addition to conventional odd super-coordinates. The idea of this construction is similar to the pure spinor formalism developed by N.Berkovits. It is demonstrated that using this formalism it is possible to prove that the certain Chern-Simons-like (Witten's OSFT-like) theory can be considered as an off-shell version for some on-shell supersymmetric field theories. We use the simplest non-trivial model found in [2] to illustrate the power of this pure spinor superfield formalism. Then we redo all the calculations for the case of 10-dimensional Super-Yang-Mills theory. The construction of off-shell description for this theory is more subtle in comparison with the model of [2] and requires additional Z_2 projection. We discover experimentally (through a direct explicit calculation) a non-trivial Z_2 duality at the level of Feynman diagrams. The nature of this duality requires a better investigation.

description: Herein, we have compared the performance of SVM and MLP in emotion recognition using speech and song channels of the RAVDESS dataset. We have undertaken a journey to extract various audio features, identify optimal scaling strategy and hyperparameter for our models. To increase sample size, we have performed audio data augmentation and addressed data imbalance using SMOTE. Our data indicate that optimised SVM outperforms MLP with an accuracy of 82 compared to 75%. Following data augmentation, the performance of both algorithms was identical at ~79%, however, overfitting was evident for the SVM. Our final exploration indicated that the performance of both SVM and MLP were similar in which both resulted in lower accuracy for the speech channel compared to the song channel. Our findings suggest that both SVM and MLP are powerful classifiers for emotion recognition in a vocal-dependent manner.

description: La ricerca nel campo dell'ingegneria tissutale applicata alla patologia cardiaca ha compiuto notevoli progressi negli ultimi anni,numerosi studi in vivo ed in vitro ne attestano le notevoli potenzialità terapeutiche. In questo studio abbiamo esaminato l’efficacia di scaffold a base di collagene di tipo I per il trapianto di cellule cardiache in un modello animale di infarto miocardico. Il disegno sperimentale ha previsto l’isolamento di cardiomiociti neonatali di ratto, i quali sono stati successivamente piastrati su membrane di collagene di tipo I, cross-linkate con 1,4-butanediol diglicidil etere (BDDGE) ed arricchite con fibronectina.Il tessuto ingegnerizzato creato in vitro ha mostrato contrazione spontanea 5-9 giorni dopo il piastramento. Gli scaffold sono stati impiantati nell’area infartuale di ratti adulti. Gli animali da esperimento sono stati divisi i maniera casuale in tre gruppi: 1) ratti sottoposti a toracotomia senza alcun impianto; 2)ratti sottoposti ad apposizione sulla superficie epicardica di una matrice di collagene di tipo I senza elementi cellulari; 3)ratti sottoposti ad apposizione sulla superficie epicardica di una matrice di collagene di tipo I precedentemente sedimentata con cellule. Ecocardiocgrafie seriate, effettuate sui ratti prima del trapianto e dopo 4 e 8 settimane, hanno dimostrato che i ratti trattati con membrane di collagene precedentemente seminate con cellule contrattili, mostravano un miglioramento della funzione cardiaca dopo 8 settimane. Le analisi immunoistochimiche condotte sui cuori espiantati hanno mostrato la permanenza delle membrane di collagene nel tessuto anche dopo 8 settimane e la penetrazione di nuovi vasi sanguigni nell’area ischemica sottesa alle membrane.
 I nostri risultati suggeriscono come le membrane di collagene possano rappresentare un buon sistema di “delivery” di cellule a livello cardiaco, un supporto per sostenere la neovascolarizzazione nelle aree ischemiche danneggiate e nel complesso quindi un potenziale strumento nell’ambito delle biotecnologie per il riparo del tessuto cardiaco.

description: Nel presente lavoro di tesi viene presentato un nuovo tipo di approccio per la progettazione delle reti di drenaggio, siano esse urbane o rurali, caratterizzate dal deflusso di portate variabili sia nel tempo che nello spazio.L' approccio proposto è di tipo probabilistico, in quanto valuta le portate al colmo di piena che affluiscono a specifiche sezioni di riferimento, debitamente posizionate lungo i vari tronchi della rete, a partire da piogge di assegnato periodo di ritorno; inoltre, l‟approccio presentato è, nel contempo, sia idrologicamente che idraulicamente basato, in quanto è in grado di sfruttare un qualsiasi modello semi-distribuito, nell‟ ambito del quale può essere fatto uso di un qualsiasi modello idraulico per la modellazione delle modalità con cui si verifica la propagazione delle piene. Nel lavoro svolto, si è voluto fornire un modello idraulico di propagazione delle piene che, seppure “semplificato” rispetto ai modelli di moto vario completo, fosse, da un lato, in grado di descrivere i vari fenomeni che si realizzano durante il passaggio di un onda di piena (rigurgiti da valle, regimi di corrente mista  “veloce/lenta” o “lenta-veloce”, presenza di uno o più risalti idraulici lungo il percorso, possibilità di trattare il passaggio da moto a superficie libera a moto in pressione nelle fognature, propagazione di perturbazioni negative verso monte dovute alla presenza di idrovore, ecc.); dall‟altro, di facile e pratico utilizzo anche in campo tecnico, in modo da consentirne la divulgazione e una rapida estenzione in campo tecnico.

description: There exist several theorems which state that when a matroid is representable over distinct fields F_1,...,F_k, it is also representable over other fields. We prove a theorem, the Lift Theorem, that implies many of these results. First, parts of Whittle's characterization of representations of ternary matroids follow from our theorem. Second, we prove the following theorem by Vertigan: if a matroid is representable over both GF(4) and GF(5), then it is representable over the real numbers by a matrix such that the absolute value of the determinant of every nonsingular square submatrix is a power of the golden ratio. Third, we give a characterization of the 3-connected matroids having at least two inequivalent representations over GF(5). We show that these are representable over the complex numbers. Additionally we provide an algebraic construction that, for any set of fields F_1,...,F_k, gives the best possible result that can be proven using the Lift Theorem.
description: 41 pages, 1 figure. Contains minor revisions, the most substantial being a new Section 4.1 that shows how Tutte's characterization of regular matroids follows from our theorem, a new proof of Theorem 5.1 (a partial field can be embedded in a ring), and a new appendix listing partial fields.

description: With growing role of social media in shaping public opinions and beliefs across the world, there has been an increased attention to identify and counter the problem of hate speech on social media. Hate speech on online spaces has serious manifestations, including social polarization and hate crimes. While prior works have proposed automated techniques to detect hate speech online, these techniques primarily fail to look beyond the textual content. Moreover, few attempts have been made to focus on the aspects of interpretability of such models given the social and legal implications of incorrect predictions. In this work, we propose a deep neural multi-modal model that can: (a) detect hate speech by effectively capturing the semantics of the text along with socio-cultural context in which a particular hate expression is made, and (b) provide interpretable insights into decisions of our model. By performing a thorough evaluation of different modeling techniques, we demonstrate that our model is able to outperform the existing state-of-the-art hate speech classification approaches. Finally, we show the importance of social and cultural context features towards unearthing clusters associated with different categories of hate.

description: Introduction— Breakthrough infections with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is still a major concern in fully vaccinated individuals due to the waning immunity over time. Herein, we have provided a detailed insight into the current recommendations for Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna, and Johnson and Johnson (J&J) booster vaccinations for clinicians, other healthcare professionals, and the public.Methods— We reviewed guidelines from healthcare authorities, press releases, webpages, and various studies published in peer-reviewed journals relevant to our topic. Data recommending or supporting booster vaccinations for SARS-CoV-2 were obtained. Multiple reviewers reviewed and analyzed the data, and any discrepancy was resolved by discussion.Results— The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) was the first to issue an emergency use authorization (EUA) and recommended receiving a Pfizer-BioNTech booster vaccine at least six months after completion of primary immunization. Shortly after, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued guidelines that are consistent with the FDA recommendations of administering a booster vaccine to those over the age of 65 years, and those between the ages of 18-64 years, with a high risk of severe disease or working in occupational/institutional settings with high exposure risks. The FDA also approved booster immunization using Moderna and J&J vaccines in eligible populations with at least 6 months and 2 months, respectively, after completion of primary immunization.Conclusions— FDA has approved the booster doses of Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna, and J&J vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 in eligible patients who have completed primary immunization. Moreover, either of the three vaccines can also be used interchangeably.

description: We report on automating the Catani-Seymour dipole subtraction which is a general procedure to treat infrared divergences in real emission processes at next-to-leading order in QCD. The automatization rests on three essential steps: the creation of the dipole terms, the calculation of the color linked squared Born matrix elements, and the evaluation of different helicity amplitudes. The routines have been tested for a number of complex processes, such as the real emission process gg --> t anti-t ggg.

CLINICAL AND DIAGNOSTICAL ASPECTS
IN DAIRY MEDITERRANEAN BUFFALO MASTITIS

description: The goal of the present study was the verify the qualitative and quantitative numerical linear correlation between the most common diagnostics test (electrical conductivity, California Mastitis Test, somatic cells count and bacteriological milk culture) employed for detection of mastitis in Mediterranean Buffalo (Bubalus Bubalis).
Four hundred and eighteen primiparous Mediterranean Buffaloes, randomly chosen between December 2011 and September 2012, were enrolled in the study. All the subjects with traumatic evidences of mastitis were discarded. A composite milk sample (pool of the 4 quarts) was collected from each animal, between days 30 and 150 after calving, during evening milking and send to laboratory for somatic cell count and bacteriological milk culture. Electrical conductivity and California Mastitis Test were recorded and performed, respectively, in farm after milking.
Low correlation values between the most of variables were found, but a moderate strong coefficient between California Mastitis Test and somatic cells count was detected (0,657). The lowest correlation’s values were recorded between electrical conductivity and the other test because it showed a low ability to rightly identify buffalo udder health status.
The diagnostic characteristic of electrical conductivity and California Mastitis Test measurements cannot adequately reflect Mediterranean Buffalo’s udder bacteriological status. A few informations, depending by selected threshold, can be reached by somatic cells count (sensibility and specificity of 41% and 88%, respectively, with cutoff of 100’000 cells/ml; 25,6% and 100% with that one of 200’000 cells/ml). At present, between the investigated diagnostic test, no association can be considered an efficient alternative to the gold standard for mastitis diagnosis, created for dairy cow and also used in Mediterranean Buffalo, represented by combined used of somatic cells count and bacteriological milk culture.

description: Motivated by the recent work on a new physical interpretation of quasinormal modes by Maggiore, we utilize this new proposal to the interesting case of Kerr black hole. In particular, by modifying Hod's idea, the resulting black hole horizon area is quantized and the resulting area quantum is in full agreement with Bekenstein's result. Furthermore, in an attempt to show that the area spectrum is equally spaced, we follow Kunstatter's method. We propose a new interpretation as a result of Maggiore's idea, for the frequency that appears in the adiabatic invariant of a black hole. The derived area spectrum is similar to that of the quantum-corrected Kerr black hole but it is not equally spaced.
