Corporate crime: applicabilità al settore sportivo e nuovi sistemi di prevenzione

Year: 2014

description: L’intervento del legislatore nazionale nel settore degli enti attuato col D.Lgs. 231/2001, si inquadra nella visione più ampia del legislatore europeo di attribuire importanza fondamentale alla concezione di società come organizzazione che sappia sviluppare, oltre ai propri fini istituzionali, strumenti e prassi che creino valori comuni di riferimento di buona organizzazione, mantenuti attraverso un adeguato sistema di controllo e di coinvolgimento delle singole componenti rispetto alle azioni di compliance normativa.. Tali principi sono i medesimi rinvenibili nella recente riforma del diritto societario italiano che ha fatto buon uso di modelli di governance europei, quello tedesco e quello anglosassone, già sperimentati ampiamente e con validi risultati ma che evolveranno ancora sulla spinta comunitaria di un’etica commerciale nuova che sta per essere delineata nel progetto di legge comunitaria al vaglio del legislatore europeo.Un siffatto modello ha ricadute anche nell’ordinamento sportivo, su quegli enti che rientrano nell’ambito di applicazione del D.Lgs. 231/2001 e che sono in verità copiosi, vista l’ampiezza della casistica ivi prevista. V’è anche un’altra ragione di questa ricaduta in ambito sportivo, ed è l’ampliamento della fattispecie dei reati introdotto con l’emanazione del D.Lgs. 61/2002 che ha spinto le società professionistiche e non solo a certificare i propri modelli organizzativi interni richiesti ai fini dell’esclusione della responsabilità. Ciò soprattutto per i reati contro la persona che conseguono alla violazione della copiosa legislazione sulla sicurezza nei luoghi di lavoro che sono anche quelli sportivi.

The role of monosodium glutamate in headache
Creators: name: O'Brien, Melissa
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: Consumption of monosodium glutamate (MSG) can induce headache in young healthy individuals and migraine-like headache in migraineurs. Blood plasma levels of glutamate are also elevated in migraineurs, but it is unknown how elevated levels of glutamate contribute to headache. The current study was undertaken to investigate the hypothesis that monosodium glutamate induces headache through activation of peripheral glutamate receptors. To test the hypothesis, we combined in vivo electrophysiology, laser Doppler recordings of dural vasculature, and immunohistochemistry to investigate the effect of systemic administration of MSG on the trigeminovascular pathway. Immunohistochemical analysis of the dura, determined that the nerve fibres innervating dural blood vessels express NMDA, AMPA, kainate and mGlur5 receptors. The glutamate transporter EAAT2, but not EAAT1 or 3, is expressed by dural blood vessels. Systemic administration of 50mg/kg MSG induced a 24.5 and 20.6 percent increase in dural blood flow in male and female rats, respectively, as measured by laser Doppler flowmetry. Dural blood flow returned to baseline values by a mean of 170 seconds. In in vivo extracellular recordings of spinal trigeminal subnucleus caudalis (SpVc) neurons with dural receptive fields, intravenously administered MSG evoked an increase in neuronal discharge in 5/6 neurons in both male and female rats. MSG also induced mechanical sensitization in both sexes. When the NMDA receptor selective antagonist APV (5, 50mg/kg) was co-administered with MSG, it attenuated both the MSG evoked activation and mechanical sensitization of SpVc neurons. My results suggest that MSG induced headache is mediated, in part, through activation of the peripheral NMDA receptor.
Autonomia finanziaria degli enti locali

description: La riforma tributaria del 1971 affidò il finanziamento degli enti locali ad un sistema misto che comprendeva autofinanziamento con tributi ed entrate patrimoniali e finanziamenti del governo centrale. Tale sistema non rese all’aumento esponenziale della spesa pubblica, verificatosi nei decenni successivi, ed i trasferimenti erariali finirono per avere il sopravvento. Parallelamente, la corruzione e lo spreco del denaro pubblico alimentavano la richiesta dei cittadini di un maggior controllo della spesa e del suo collegamento al prelievo, dando vita alla richiesta sempre crescente di decentramento e, quindi, di federalismo fiscale, nel quale l’autonomia impositiva degli enti locali assunse la sua giusta rilevanza.

description: Using the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA), we have observed the radio continuum emission from the young stellar object HW 9 in the Cepheus A star-forming region at ten epochs between 2007 February and 2009 November. Due to its strong radio variability, the source was detected at only four of the ten epochs. From these observations, the trigonometric parallax of HW 9 was determined to be $π$ = 1.43 $\pm$ 0.07 mas, in excellent agreement with a recent independent VLBA determination of the trigonometric parallax of a methanol maser associated with the nearby young stellar source HW 2 ($π$ = 1.43 $\pm$ 0.08 mas). This concordance in results, obtained in one case from continuum and in the other from line observations, confirms the reliability of Very Long Baseline Array trigonometric parallax measurements. By combining the two results, we constrain the distance to Cepheus A to be 700$_{-28}^{+31}$ pc, an uncertainty of 3.5%.

description: Il Vertice del G8 di Sea Island, in Georgia, lanciò, nel 2004, un’iniziativa denominata Partnership for Progress and a Common Future in associazione con i Paesi del Medio Oriente Allargato e Nord Africa, Broader Middle East and North Africa (BMENA), la cui finalità risiedeva nel desiderio di sostenere, in tale ambito geo-politico, gli sviluppi di libertà, democrazia e prosperità. Entro tale quadro si è particolarmente sviluppata l’iniziativa denominata Dialogo di Assistenza per la Democrazia (DAD), di cui l’Italia è protagonista, insieme a Turchia e Yemen.La democrazia è o non è un bene “esportabile”? Forse no, ma è lecito proporla, salvaguardando il diritto dei Paesi interessati a procedere secondo propri ritmi e modalità.Allora iniziative internazionali come questa possono essere utili. Ma, come molti processi internazionali avviati in scenari geo-strategici complessi, il DAD potrà avere un impatto insufficiente oppure potrà contribuire a favorevoli sviluppi presso le società dei Paesi interessati: molto dipenderà da quanto i diversi attori ci crederanno e vorranno impegnarvisi.

Mediating everyday multiculturalism : performativity and precarious inclusion in Australian digital storytelling
Creators: name: Trimboli, Daniella
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: This dissertation examines the intersection of everyday multiculturalism and digital storytelling in Australia. Using Judith Butler’s theory of performativity amongst others, the dissertation addresses the question: what are the ways in which Australian digital storytelling projects engage with concepts of “cultural diversity” to create complex and resistant material possibilities for “ethnic Australians”? Digital stories have become a popular tool in community-based arts projects, representative of an overall turn to the everyday in Australian contemporary arts practice. The growing popularity of everyday experiences in art is paralleled by the growing scholarship of everyday multiculturalism; a new field of study that explores the lived experiences of multicultural encounters in Australia. Digital stories thus form a social technology at the intersection of key movements in cultural studies. The dissertation analyses ACMI’s digital storytelling programme alongside Big hART’s Junk Theory to consider how ethnic bodies are constructed and mobilised in everyday Australian life in relation to the performative force of normative whiteness. It then moves to consider the capacity for digital storytelling to accommodate slippages in the performative chain. The new media practices of Curious Works are used to illustrate how the discursive force of whiteness can be disrupted via digital storytelling, making way for a reconstitution of a more complex “ethnic” body in everyday life.

description: We present the first clear identification and highly accurate measurement of the intra-shell transition $1s2p\, ^3P_2 \to 1s2s\, ^3S_1$ of He-like uranium performed via X-ray spectroscopy. The present experiment has been conducted at the gas-jet target of the ESR storage ring in GSI (Darmstadt, Germany) where a Bragg spectrometer, with a bent germanium crystal, and a Ge(i) detector were mounted. Using the ESR deceleration capabilities, we performed a differential measurement between the $1s2p\, ^3P_2 \to 1s2s\, ^3S_1$ He-like U transition energy, at 4510 eV, and the $1s^22p\ ^2P_{3/2} \to 1s^22s\, ^2S_{1/2}$ Li-like U transition energy, at 4460 eV. By a proper choice of the ion velocities, the X-ray energies from the He- and Li-like ions could be measured, in the laboratory frame, at the same photon energy. This allowed for a drastic reduction of the experimental systematic uncertainties, principally due to the Doppler effect, and for a comparison with the theory without the uncertainties arising from one-photon QED predictions and nuclear size corrections.

description: This presentation introduces Collective Knowledge Playground - a free, open-source and technology-agnostic on-prem platform being developed by the MLCommons taskforce on automation and reproducibility. Our goal is to let the community benchmark, optimize and compare AI, ML and other emerging applications across diverse and rapidly evolving models, software, hardware and data from different vendors in terms of costs, performance, power consumption, accuracy, size and other metrics in a unified, collaborative, automated and reproducible way. This platform is powered by the portable and technology-agnostic MLCommons Collective Mind automation framework (CM aka CK2) with portable and reusable automation recipes developed by the community to solve the "AI/ML dependency hell" and automatically connect diverse and continuously changing models, software, hardware, data sets, best practices and optimization techniques into end-to-end applications in a transparent and non-intrusive way. Our vision for the CK platform is to help researchers, engineers and entrepreneurs accelerate innovation by automatically generating the most efficient, reproducible and deployable full-stack AI/ML applications using the most suitable software/hardware stack at any given time (model, framework, inference engine and any other related dependency) based on their requirements and constraints including costs, throughput, latency, power consumption, accuracy, target devices (cloud/edge/mobile/tiny), environment and data while slashing their research, development and operational costs.

Generalized-ensemble simulations and cluster algorithms

Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The importance-sampling Monte Carlo algorithm appears to be the universally optimal solution to the problem of sampling the state space of statistical mechanical systems according to the relative importance of configurations for the partition function or thermal averages of interest. While this is true in terms of its simplicity and universal applicability, the resulting approach suffers from the presence of temporal correlations of successive samples naturally implied by the Markov chain underlying the importance-sampling simulation. In many situations, these autocorrelations are moderate and can be easily accounted for by an appropriately adapted analysis of simulation data. They turn out to be a major hurdle, however, in the vicinity of phase transitions or for systems with complex free-energy landscapes. The critical slowing down close to continuous transitions is most efficiently reduced by the application of cluster algorithms, where they are available. For first-order transitions and disordered systems, on the other hand, macroscopic energy barriers need to be overcome to prevent dynamic ergodicity breaking. In this situation, generalized-ensemble techniques such as the multicanonical simulation method can effect impressive speedups, allowing to sample the full free-energy landscape. The Potts model features continuous as well as first-order phase transitions and is thus a prototypic example for studying phase transitions and new algorithmic approaches. I discuss the possibilities of bringing together cluster and generalized-ensemble methods to combine the benefits of both techniques. The resulting algorithm allows for the efficient estimation of the random-cluster partition function encoding the information of all Potts models, even with a non-integer number of states, for all temperatures in a single simulation run per system size.

For different colour tensor projections of the general operator, the properties of a frozen gluon propagator and unenhanced Faddeev-Popov ghost propagator, which are observed in lattice computations, can be reproduced. The alternative possibilities are distinguished by the infrared structure of the propagators of the spin-1 fields, other than those of the gluon and Faddeev-Popov ghost, for which there is no numerical simulation data to compare with yet.

description: We show that a quantum state transfer, previously studied as a continuous time process in networks of interacting spins, can be achieved within the model of discrete time quantum walks with position dependent coin. We argue that due to additional degrees of freedom, discrete time quantum walks allow to observe effects which cannot be observed in the corresponding continuous time case. First, we study a discrete time version of the engineered coupling protocol due to Christandl et. al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 187902 (2004)] and then discuss the general idea of conversion between continuous time quantum walks and discrete time quantum walks.

description: In molecular charge transport, transition voltage spectroscopy (TVS) holds the promise that molecular energy levels can be explored at bias voltages lower than required for resonant tunneling. We investigate the theoretical basis of this novel tool, using a generic model. In particular, we study the length dependence of the conducting frontier orbital and of the 'transition voltage' as a function of length. We show that this dependence is influenced by the amount of screening of the electrons in the molecule, which determines the voltage drop to be located at the contacts or across the entire molecule. We observe that the transition voltage depends significantly on the length, but that the ratio between the transition voltage and the conducting frontier orbital is approximately constant only in strongly screening (conjugated) molecules. Uncertainty about the screening within a molecule thus limits the predictive power of TVS. We furthermore argue that the relative length independence of the transition voltage for non-conjugated chains is due to strong localization of the frontier orbitals on the end groups ensuring binding of the rods to the metallic contacts. Finally, we investigate the characteristics of TVS in asymmetric molecular junctions. If a single level dominates the transport properties, TVS can provide a good estimate for both the level position and the degree of junction asymmetry. If more levels are involved the applicability of TVS becomes limited.

description: In this study, we investigated the effect of the scrubbing medium’s particle size distribution on the scrubbing flotation performance of microcrystalline graphite. A simplex lattice mixture design approach using Design-Expert software was employed for proportioning testing of the scrubbing media. Three different sizes of scrubbing medium (A: 1 mm, B: 2 mm, and C: 3 mm) were mixed to obtain different particle size distributions. The results showed that a linear mixture model was suitable for fitting this mixture design, and the particle size distribution of the scrubbing medium was 3 mm. Hence, we studied the effect of scrubbing time on the flotation performance of the scrubbing flotation process. The flotation results indicated that graphite quality was enhanced by increasing the scrubbing time, and the optimum scrubbing time for this graphite was 45 min when maximum enrichment efficiency was acquired. Also, we investigated the effect of the scrubbing medium’s particle size compositions on gangue entrainment in the scrubbing flotation process. It was concluded that the degree of entrainment under the composition of scrubbing size 1 mm (16.67%), 2 mm (16.67%), and 3 mm (66.66%) was reduced compared to the other two compositions (scrubbing size 2 mm (50%) and 3 mm (50%) as well as scrubbing size 3 mm (100%)). This conclusion was proved using analyses of froth bubble size and scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS).

description: We investigate compactness properties of weighted summation operators $V_{α,σ}$ as mapping from $\ell_1(T)$ into $\ell_q(T)$ for some $q\in (1,\infty)$. Those operators are defined by $$ (V_{α,σ} x)(t) :=α(t)\sum_{s\succeq t}σ(s) x(s)\,,\quad t\in T\;, $$ where $T$ is a tree with induced partial order $t \preceq s$ (or $s \succeq t$) for $t,s\in T$. Here $α$ and $σ$ are given weights on $T$. We introduce a metric $d$ on $T$ such that compactness properties of $(T,d)$ imply two--sided estimates for $e_n(V_{α,σ})$, the (dyadic) entropy numbers of $V_{α,σ}$. The results are applied for concrete trees as e.g. moderate increasing, biased or binary trees and for weights with $α(t)σ(t)$ decreasing either polynomially or exponentially. We also give some probabilistic applications for Gaussian summation schemes on trees.

description: Determining the occurrence rate of terrestrial-mass planets (m_p < 10M_earth) is a critically important step on the path towards determining the frequency of Earth-like planets (eta-Earth), and hence the uniqueness of our Solar system. Current radial-velocity surveys, achieving precisions of 1 m/s, are able to detect terrestrial-mass planets and provide meaningful estimates of their occurrence rate. We present an analysis of 67 solar-type stars from the Anglo-Australian Planet Search specifically targeted for very high-precision observations. When corrected for incompleteness, we find that the planet occurrence rate increases sharply with decreasing planetary mass. Our results are consistent with those from other surveys: in periods shorter than 50 days, we find that 1.5% of stars host a giant (m_p > 100M_earth) planet, and that 18.5% of stars host a planet with m_p < 10M_earth. The preponderance of low-mass planets in short-period orbits is in conflict with formation simulations in which the majority of terrestrial-mass planets reside at larger orbital distances. This work gives a hint as to the size of eta-Earth, but to make meaningful predictions on the frequency of terrestrial planets in longer, potentially habitable orbits, low-mass terrestrial planet searches at periods of 100-200 days must be made an urgent priority for ground-based Doppler planet searches in the years ahead.

I have compared the types of them with a number of other species, also from the Philippines and as yet undescribed, in the Senckenberg Museum 1). These will not concern us here. I have also seen two species of Amphicnemis from Celebes, so that the genus proves to be a large one, having a wide distribution in the Archipelago. Many other species in all probability await discovery.

The role of the membrane scaffolding protein KAI1 in human cutaneous melanoma

description: Cutaneous melanoma remains to be not only one of the most deadly among all skin cancers, but it’s one of the most deadly of all cancers in general. It is crucial to have an early detection of the disease despite lacking any effective treating options while therapeutic strategies of later stages of melanoma have yet to be discovered. Meanwhile, the mechanism modulating the progression of melanoma is still not well understood. In this study, we investigated KAI1’s role during metastasis regulation in human melanoma. We proposed the tumor suppressor function of KAI1 was directly correlated with KAI1 expression and showed the loss of KAI1 expression in melanoma patient samples significantly correlated with poorer patient survival. Furthermore, forced KAI1 expression was shown to suppress melanoma cell migration and invasion primarily through its regulation of another tumor suppressor gene: inhibitor of growth 4 (ING4). Moreover, KAI1 expression significantly suppressed melanoma angiogenesis by reducing HUVEC cell growth and tubular structure formation. In fact, KAI1’s regulation on angiogenesis was associated with the modulation of IL-6 and VEGF expression. Additionally, we investigated the mechanistic pathway between KAI1 and ING4 and found that KAI1 suppressed Akt phosphorylation through the regulation of EGFR and VEGFR phosphorylation. Meanwhile, the semaphorin 3C (SEMA3C) protein had been identified as an oncogene that induced cancer cell migration and invasion. In this study, we found that SEMA3C was also able to induce melanoma angiogenesis observed in the elevated HUVEC growth and tube formation. Furthermore, we showed that KAI1 expression suppressed SEMA3C-induced melanoma angiogenesis whereas KAI1 knockdown rescued the SEAM3C-suppressed melanoma angiogenesis. According to our study, we have illustrated a regulatory pathway of KAI1 on the regulation of melanoma metastasis which involves the regulation of the PI3K/Akt pathway and the tumor suppressor gene ING4. Also, the restoration of KAI1 expression was shown to significantly suppress melanoma cancer cell migration, invasion and angiogenesis. Taken together, KAI1 was a potential diagnostic marker for advanced melanoma and the restoration of KAI1 expression might shed light on new therapeutic approaches for treating cutaneous human melanoma.

description: A low-dimensional model (LDM) for turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection in a Cartesian cell with square domain, based on the Galerkin projection of the Boussinesq equations onto a finite set of empirical eigenfunctions, is presented. The empirical eigenfunctions are obtained from a joint Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) of the velocity and temperature fields using the Snapshot Method on the basis of a direct numerical simulation (DNS). The resulting LDM is a quadratic inhomogeneous system of coupled ordinary differential equations which we use to describe the long-time temporal evolution of the large-scale mode amplitudes for a Rayleigh number of 1e5 and a Prandtl number of 0.7. The truncation to a finite number of degrees of freedom, that does not exceed a number of 310 for the present, requires the additional implementation of an eddy viscosity-diffusivity to capture the missing dissipation of the small-scale modes. The magnitude of this additional dissipation mechanism is determined by requiring statistical stationarity and a total dissipation that corresponds with the original DNS data. We compare the performance of two models, a constant so-called Heisenberg viscosity--diffusivity and a mode-dependent or modal one. The latter viscosity--diffusivity model turns out to reproduce the large-scale properties of the turbulent convection qualitatively well, even for a model with only a few hundred POD modes.

description: We describe the role conformal nets, a mathematical model for conformal field theory, could play in a geometric definition of the generalized cohomology theory TMF of topological modular forms. Inspired by work of Segal and Stolz-Teichner, we speculate that bundles of boundary conditions for the net of free fermions will be the basic underlying objects representing TMF-cohomology classes. String structures, which are the fundamental orientations for TMF-cohomology, can be encoded by defects between free fermions, and we construct the bundle of fermionic boundary conditions for the TMF-Euler class of a string vector bundle. We conjecture that the free fermion net exhibits an algebraic periodicity corresponding to the 576-fold cohomological periodicity of TMF; using a homotopy-theoretic invariant of invertible conformal nets, we establish a lower bound of 24 on this periodicity of the free fermions.

description: Amphicnemis bicolor (MARTIN). 1897. MARTIN, Ann. Soc. ent. France, 66, p. 593 - 594. — ♂ Banguey Id. (Teinobasis). Material studied: - 1♂ (ad.), “ Telebasis bicolor MARTIN, Type, Banguey " (yellow, Martin's hand), in the Paris Museum. This is a true Amphicnemis. The type agrees in most respects with A. amabilis, sp. n., from which it appears to differ in the shape of the superior pair of appendages. Other details are given in the key to the species. Unfortunately, my notes on the type of this species are incomplete, and I am unable to give a sketch of its anal appendages. Dr. LAIDLAW, who also examined the type, informs me in a letter that the inferior appendages are armed with a robust spine, which is directed upward. The ♀ is unknown.

Secure Lossy Source Coding with Side Information at the Decoders

description: This paper investigates the problem of secure lossy source coding in the presence of an eavesdropper with arbitrary correlated side informations at the legitimate decoder (referred to as Bob) and the eavesdropper (referred to as Eve). This scenario consists of an encoder that wishes to compress a source to satisfy the desired requirements on: (i) the distortion level at Bob and (ii) the equivocation rate at Eve. It is assumed that the decoders have access to correlated sources as side information. For instance, this problem can be seen as a generalization of the well-known Wyner-Ziv problem taking into account the security requirements. A complete characterization of the rate-distortion-equivocation region for the case of arbitrary correlated side informations at the decoders is derived. Several special cases of interest and an application example to secure lossy source coding of binary sources in the presence of binary and ternary side informations are also considered. It is shown that the statistical differences between the side information at the decoders and the presence of non-zero distortion at the legitimate decoder can be useful in terms of secrecy. Applications of these results arise in a variety of distributed sensor network scenarios.

Laicità, radici cristiane e regolamentazione del fenomeno religioso nella dimensione dell’U.E.
Creators: name: Varnier, Giovanni Battista
Publisher: name: Studi Urbinati - Serie A
Year: 2014

description: Prendendo avvio dall’osservazione che ormai la laicità è un attributo connaturale alla società contemporanea e dopo averla distinta dal laicismo (inteso come non rispondente ad un criterio democratico in quanto tendente a fare proprio un determinato convincimento), il saggio considera il sistema italiano, che precede la distinzione e la collaborazione tra Stato e confessioni religiose. Il problema è dunque di stabilire un rapporto tra laicità e collaborazione, che distingua i compiti della società civile e da quelli della società religiosa.Proseguendo nell’analisi, l’elaborato passa a valutare se esista una dimensione europea della laicità, questo pur nel quadro di una riconosciuta incompetenza dell’U.E. per la disciplina del fenomeno religioso. Ancora una volta si tratta di stabilire il rapporto tra laicità e collaborazione in un contesto segnato dalla attenzione per il diritto fondamentale all’esercizio della libertà religiosa ma in presenza di un orientamento verso un ordinamento (ancora da costruire) che sia volto a disciplinare il fatto religioso. Questo perché la tendenza espansiva delle norme comunitarie caratterizzerà sempre più i diversi sistemi giuridici nazionali relativi ai culti in Europa.Ulteriori osservazioni richiamano l’attenzione sul rapporto tra laicità e diritti tra Europa e Mediterraneo, in particolare in riferimento alle relazioni tra monismo islamico e dualismo cristiano, mentre l’integrazione delle comunità musulmane nella società europea pone alla laicità problemi non previsti dal legislatore e determina reazioni di integralismo confessionale.In conclusione si sottolinea il fatto che il nostro Continente è carico di tradizioni e può unificarsi solo sulla base degli elementi comuni. Pertanto un contributo ai nuovi assetti dell’U.E. può derivare anche dalla ripresa dello studio del passato e dal ruolo della Chiesa cattolica, intesa quale elemento universale staccato dagli Stati nazionali.

Photoinduced Structural Phase Transitions in Polyacene

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: There exist two types of structural instability in polyacene: double bonds in a cis pattern and those in a trans pattern. They are isoenergetic but spectroscopically distinct. We demonstrate optical characterization and manipulation of Peierls-distorted polyacene employing both correlated and uncorrelated Hamiltonians. We clarify the phase boundaries of the cis- and trans-distorted isomers, elucidate their optical-conductivity spectra, and then explore their photoresponses. There occurs a photoinduced transformation in the polyacene structure, but it is one-way switching: The trans configuration is well convertible into the cis one, whereas the reverse conversion is much less feasible. Even the weakest light irradiation can cause a transition of uncorrelated electrons, while correlated electrons have a transition threshold against light irradiation.
