description: Abundances of s-capture process elements in stars with exquisite asteroseismic, spectroscopic, and astrometric constraints offer a novel opportunity to study stellar evolution, nucleosynthesis, and Galactic chemical evolution. We aim to investigate one of the least studied s-process elements in the literature, Ce, using stars with asteroseismic constraints from the Kepler, K2 and TESS missions. We combine the global asteroseismic parameters derived from precise light curves obtained by the Kepler, K2 and TESS missions with chemical abundances from the APOGEE DR17 survey and astrometric data from the Gaia mission. Finally, we compute stellar ages using the code PARAM. We investigate the different trends of [Ce/Fe] as a function of [Fe/H], [alpha/Fe] and age considering the dependence on the radial position, specially in the case of K2 targets which cover a large Galactocentric range. We, finally, explore the [Ce/alpha] ratios as a function of age in different Galactocentric intervals. The studied trends display a strong dependence of the Ce abundances on [Fe/H] and star formation history. Indeed, the [Ce/Fe] ratio shows a non-monotonic dependence on [Fe/H] with a peak around -0.2 dex. Moreover, younger stars have higher [Ce/Fe] and [Ce/alpha] ratios than older stars, confirming the latest contribution of low- and intermediate-mass asymptotic giant branch stars to the Galactic chemical enrichment. In addition, the trends of [Ce/Fe] and [Ce/alpha] with age become steeper moving towards the outer regions of the Galactic disc, demonstrating a more intense star formation in the inner regions than in the outer regions. Ce is thus a potentially interesting element to help constraining stellar yields and the inside-out formation of the Milky Way disc. However, the large scatter in all the relations studied here, suggests that spectroscopic uncertainties for this element are still too large.

L’ordine pubblico processuale e la tutela dei diritti di difesa tra Corti europee e italiane

description: Procedural public order, which is intended to guarantee respect for the principles of procedure and the rights of the defence associated with a fair trial, is one of the limits that remain in place to prevent the effects, in the European judicial area, of a decision rendered in contempt of fundamental procedural guarantees. Some of the specific contents of procedural public policy identified by the Court of Justice have also been examined by the European Court of Human Rights, which has had to rule on the compatibility of the principle of mutual recognition with Article 6 ECHR. From the analysis carried out it emerges that both Courts maintain a restrictive approach to the exception of procedural public order, and the Strasbourg Court seems to have less occasion to intervene to guarantee the rights examined, since the European Union, also at the jurisdictional level, appears to be capable of autonomously guaranteeing the protection of rights inspired by fair trial. At the end of the work, the obligations that the interpretation provided by the Court of Justice imposes on national judges (in this case Italian) when invoking procedural public policy as a ground for refusing to recognise or enforce a foreign decision will be examined.
description: L’ordine pubblico processuale, volto a garantire il rispetto dei principi di natura procedurale ed il diritto di difesa, connessi all’equo processo, costituisce uno dei limiti che restano in vigore per ostacolare gli effetti, nello Spazio giudiziario europeo, di una decisione pronunciata in spregio alle garanzie processuali fondamentali. Alcuni contenuti specifici dell’ordine pubblico processuale enucleati dalla Corte di giustizia sono stati oggetto di disamina anche da parte della Corte europea dei diritti dell’uomo che si è trovata a doversi pronunciare sulla compatibilità con l’art. 6 CEDU del principio del mutuo riconoscimento. Dall’analisi svolta emerge che entrambe le Corti mantengono un approccio restrittivo dell’eccezione dell’ordine pubblico processuale, e la Corte di Strasburgo sembra avere meno occasione di intervenire per garantire i diritti esaminati, in quanto l’Unione europea, anche sul piano giurisdizionale, appare capace di assicurare autonomamente la tutela dei diritti ispirati all’equo processo. Alla conclusione del lavoro saranno vagliati gli obblighi che l’interpretazione fornita dalla Corte di giustizia impone ai giudici nazionali (nel caso di specie italiani) nell’invocare l’ordine pubblico processuale quale motivo di diniego del riconoscimento o dell’esecuzione di una decisione straniera.

description: This paper presents a currently bilingual but potentially multilingual FrameNet-based grammar library implemented in Grammatical Framework. The contribution of this paper is two-fold. First, it offers a methodological approach to automatically generate the grammar based on semantico-syntactic valence patterns extracted from FrameNet-annotated corpora. Second, it provides a proof of concept for two use cases illustrating how the acquired multilingual grammar can be exploited in different CNL applications in the domains of arts and tourism.

description: We present the detection of 68 sources from the most sensitive radio survey in circular polarisation conducted to date. We use the second data release of the 144 MHz LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey to produce circularly-polarised maps with median 140 $μ$Jy beam$^{-1}$ noise and resolution of 20$''$ for $\approx$27% of the northern sky (5634 deg$^{2}$). The leakage of total intensity into circular polarisation is measured to be $\approx$0.06%, and our survey is complete at flux densities $\geq1$ mJy. A detection is considered reliable when the circularly-polarised fraction exceeds 1%. We find the population of circularly-polarised sources is composed of four distinct classes: stellar systems, pulsars, active galactic nuclei, and sources unidentified in the literature. The stellar systems can be further separated into chromospherically-active stars, M dwarfs, and brown dwarfs. Based on the circularly-polarised fraction and lack of an optical counterpart, we show it is possible to infer whether the unidentified sources are likely unknown pulsars or brown dwarfs. By the completion of this survey of the northern sky, we expect to detect 300$\pm$100 circularly-polarised sources.

description: We establish a generalization of Jacobi's elegantissima, which solves the pendulum equation. This amazing formula appears in lectures by the famous cosmologist Georges Lemaître, during the academic years 1955-1956 and 1956-1957. Our approach uses the full power of Jacobi's elliptic functions, in particular imaginary time is crucial for obtaining the result.

description: We rigorously investigate the size dependence of disordered mean field models with finite local spin space in terms of metastates. Thereby we provide an illustration of the framework of metastates for systems of randomly competing Gibbs measures. In particular we consider the thermodynamic limit of the empirical metastate 1/N ∑Nn=1 δμn(η) where μn(η) is the Gibbs measure in the finite volume {1,...,n} and the frozen disorder variable η is fixed. We treat explicitely the Hopfield model with finitely many patterns and the Curie Weiss Random Field Ising model. In both examples in the phase transition regime the empirical metastate is dispersed for large N. Moreover it does not converge for a.e. η but rather in distribution for whose limits we give explicit expressions. We also discuss another notion of metastates, due to Aizenman and Wehr.

This correction reduces the discrepancy between target and experimental light distribution to the level of a few percent (RMS error). We prove the generality of this algorithm by applying it to a variety of target light distributions of relevance for cold atomic physics.

description: The model under consideration is a catalytic branching model constructed in [DF96], where the catalysts themselves suffer a spatial branching mechanism. Main attention is paid to dimension d=3. The key result is a convergence theorem towards a limit with full intensity (persistence), which in a sense is comparable with the situation for the "classical" continuous super-Brownian motion. As by-products, strong laws of large numbers are derived for the Brownian collision local time controlling the branching of reactants, and for the catalytic occupation time process. Also, the occupation measures are shown to be absolutely continuous.
title: A house of their own: women and houses in Henry James's late 1890s fiction
Creators: name: Tarui, Yasuko
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2022

description: This thesis examines Henry James’s late 1890s fiction in terms of the heroines’ “search for a home.” The works that are analyzed are The Spoils of Poynton (1897), The Other House (1896), What Maisie Knew (1897), The Turn of the Screw (1898), In the Cage (1898), and The Awkward Age (1899). The first purpose of this thesis is to point out how, on a naturalistic level, the heroines suffer from a lack of their own living space, and to analyze the plot of each work as recounting the heroine’s search for a home that is safe and permanent. The second purpose is to explain the “spatial implications” of each residence. The rooms and houses serve not only as metaphors of the characteristics of their inhabitants but also emerge as significant narrative presences in their own right. What becomes clear from these analyses is James’s pessimism regarding the women’s future, because in the end the heroines are either “homeless” or decide to live somewhere by compromise. It is implied that the root of the problem is the breakdown of family relationships, particularly acute in the tensions between parent and child, and also in the failure of the traditional marriage-plot to offer objectively acknowledged endings and solutions. The only final possession of a house in the works of this period lies in the consciousness of their heroines, who remain consequently vulnerable and unfulfilled.

description: In the past 25 years, agricultural economists have made significant progress in research but they have also experienced substantial inner turmoil and great anxiety about the profession— its direction and substance. Self-criticism has taken two major forms. Some people have argued that a larger share of staff time and funds should have been devoted to problems of the majority of the rural population. Others have contended that the research completed on such problems could have been done better. The practical problems of agriculture and rural Americans will be changing in the future at an accelerating rate. To help agricultural economists and others keep up, midcareer opportunities and experiences in which people learn new skills to prepare for different activities must become more common. Future research techniques will also emphasize multifield and multidisciplinary work more. Increasingly, analyses will incorporate multiple-objective concepts, such as those recently used in water resource planning. Issues of conflict among rural people—in use of land, for one—will become more important. To further complicate the work, equity considerations will increasingly favor rural and urban groups over commercial farmers. Questions on commercial agriculture must not be ignored, though, when doing research on communities with natural resources and on rural people. Similarly, questions on the equity of certain conditions or actions, for example, must be raised in research on commercial agriculture. Agricultural economic research of the next 25 years will carry a strong streak of practicality. The profession particularly needs to focus on major national issues that private and public decision-makers cannot avoid. Agricultural economists must also avoid the false dichotomy of skills used in economic work related to U.S. problems and skills used to work on problems of other countries or on concerns that are international.

In Situ Disdrometer Calibration Using Multiple DSD Moments

description: In situ calibration is a proposed strategy for continuous as well as initial calibration of an impact disdrometer. In previous work, a collocated tipping bucket had been utilized to provide a rainfall rate based ~11/3 moment reference to an impact disdrometer's signal processing system for implementation of adaptive calibration. Using rainfall rate only, transformation of impulse amplitude to a drop volume based on a simple power law was used to define an error surface in the model's parameter space. By incorporating optical extinction second moment measurements with rainfall rate data, an improved in situ disdrometer calibration algorithm results due to utilization of multiple (two or more) independent moments of the drop size distribution in the error function definition. The resulting improvement in calibration performance can be quantified by detailed examination of the parameter space error surface using simulation as well as real data.

description: In this paper, we introduce a method to rapidly create 3D geometries by folding 2D sheets via pull-up nets. Given a 3D structure, we unfold its mesh into a planar 2D sheet using heuristic algorithms and populate these with cutlines and throughholes. We develop a web-based simulation tool that translates users' 3D meshes into manufacturable 2D sheets. After laser-cutting the sheet and feeding thread through these throughholes to form a pull-up net, pulling the thread will fold the sheet into the 3D structure using a single degree of freedom. We introduce the fabrication process and build a variety of prototypes demonstrating the method's ability to rapidly create a breadth of geometries suitable for low-fidelity prototyping that are both load-bearing and aesthetic across a range of scales. Future work will expand the breadth of geometries available and evaluate the ability of our prototypes to sustain structural loads.

description: The application of block waveform iteration methods to initial value problems for implicit DAE systems of index 1 arising in chemical process simulation is considered. These methods permit the concurrent treatment of blocks of subsystems of the entire system gaining a coarse granular parallelism. Their convergence properties strongly depend on the assignment of variables to equations and the partitioning of the system into subsystem blocks. The convergence of block waveform iteration methods applied to semiexplicit DAE sytems of index 1 is proved. The convergence conditions are given in such a way that only the single blocksystems have to satisfy some corresponding conditions. It is shown that these conditions are fulfilled for a simplified modeling of distillation columns. Resulting from the convergence considerations an assignment and partitioning algorithm is given. A prototype of a waveform-iteration code has been implemented and tested by means of examples included in the user package of the chemical process simulator SPEEDUP.

description: Aims. Deep millimeter surveys are necessary to probe the dust-obscured galaxies at high redshift. We conducted a large observing program at 1.2 and 2 mm with the NIKA2 camera installed on the IRAM 30-meter telescope. This NIKA2 Cosmological Legacy Survey (N2CLS) covers two emblematic fields: GOODS-N and COSMOS. We introduce the N2CLS survey and present new 1.2 and 2 mm number count measurements based on the tiered N2CLS observations from October 2017 to May 2021. Methods. We develop an end-to-end simulation that combines an input sky model with the instrument noise and data reduction pipeline artifacts. This simulation is used to compute the sample purity, flux boosting, pipeline transfer function, completeness, and effective area of the survey. We used the 117 deg$^2$ SIDES simulations as the sky model, which include the galaxy clustering. Our formalism allows us to correct the source number counts to obtain galaxy number counts, the difference between the two being due to resolution effects caused by the blending of several galaxies inside the large beam of single-dish instruments. Results. The N2CLS-May2021 survey reaches an average 1-$σ$ noise level of 0.17 and 0.048 mJy on GOODS-N over 159 arcmin$^2$, and 0.46 and 0.14 mJy on COSMOS over 1010 arcmin$^2$, at 1.2 and 2 mm, respectively. For a purity threshold of 80%, we detect 120 and 67 sources in GOODS-N and 195 and 76 sources in COSMOS, at 1.2 and 2 mm, respectively. Our measurement connects the bright single-dish to the deep interferometric number counts. After correcting for resolution effects, our results reconcile the single-dish and interferometric number counts and are further accurately compared with model predictions.

description: We derive a strong approximation of a local polynomial estimator (LPE) in nonparametric autoregression by an LPE in a corresponding nonparametric regression model. This generally suggests the application of regression-typical tools for statistical inference in nonparametric autoregressive models. It provides an important simplification for the bootstrap method to be used: It is enough to mimic the structure of a nonparametric regression model rather than to imitate the more complicated process structure in the autoregressive case. As an example we consider a simple wild bootstrap. Besides our particular application to simultaneous confidence bands, this suggests the validity of wild bootstrap for several other statistical purposes.

description: We have performed a powder neutron diffraction study on CsO$_2$, where the unpaired electron with $s=1/2$ in the $π^*$ orbital of the O$_2^-$ ion is responsible for the magnetism. The magnetic reflections 0 $\frac{1}{2}$ 0 and 0 $\frac{1}{2}$ 1 were observed below the Néel temperature of about 10 K. An antiferromagnetic structure with a propagation vector of (0 ,$\frac{1}{2}$, 0) and magnetic moments parallel to the $a$-axis is the most plausible. The magnitude of the ordered moment is about 0.2 $μ_B$, which is considered to be strongly suppressed due to the one-dimensionality of the system. We propose a possible $π^*$ orbital order that can explain the obtained magnetic structure, and discuss its relation to the one-dimensionality.

description: To maximize the performance of concurrent data structures, researchers have often turned to highly complex fine-grained techniques, resulting in efficient and elegant algorithms, which can however be often difficult to understand and prove correct. While simpler techniques exist, such as transactional memory, they can have limited performance or portability relative to their fine-grained counterparts. Approaches at both ends of this complexity-performance spectrum have been extensively explored, but relatively less is known about the middle ground: approaches that are willing to sacrifice some performance for simplicity, while remaining competitive with state-of-the-art handcrafted designs. In this paper, we explore this middle ground, and present PathCAS, a primitive that combines ideas from multi-word CAS (KCAS) and transactional memory approaches, while carefully avoiding overhead. We show how PathCAS can be used to implement efficient search data structures relatively simply, using an internal binary search tree as an example, then extending this to an AVL tree. Our best implementations outperform many handcrafted search trees: in search-heavy workloads, it rivals the BCCO tree [5], the fastest known concurrent binary tree in terms of search performance [3]. Our results suggest that PathCAS can yield concurrent data structures that are relatively easy to build and prove correct, while offering surprisingly high performance.

description: We present the mass distribution at the core of SDSS J1531+3414, a strong-lensing cluster at z=0.335. We find that the mass distribution is well described by two cluster-scale halos with a contribution from cluster-member galaxies. New HST observations of SDSS J1531+3414 reveal a signature of ongoing star formation associated with the two central galaxies at the core of the cluster, in the form of a chain of star forming regions at the center of the cluster. Using the lens model presented here, we place upper limits on the contribution of a possible lensed image to the flux at the center region, and rule out that this emission is coming from a background source.

description: We propose here a static and axisymmetric braneworld in six dimensions as a string-like model extension. For a subtle warp function, this scenario provides near brane corrections. By varying the bulk cosmological constant, we obtain a source which passes through different phases. The solution is defined both for the interior as for the exterior of the string and satisfies the weak energy condition. Smooth gravitational massless mode is localized on the brane which core is displaced from the origin. In contrast to the thin string model, the massive solutions have high amplitude near the brane. By means of an analogue quantum potential analysis, we show that s-waves gravitational Kaluza-Klein modes are permissible as resonant states.

description: In our digital universe nowadays, enormous amount of data are produced in a streaming manner in a variety of application areas. These data are often unlabelled. In this case, identifying infrequent events, such as anomalies, poses a great challenge. This problem becomes even more difficult in non-stationary environments, which can cause deterioration of the predictive performance of a model. To address the above challenges, the paper proposes an autoencoder-based incremental learning method with drift detection (strAEm++DD). Our proposed method strAEm++DD leverages on the advantages of both incremental learning and drift detection. We conduct an experimental study using real-world and synthetic datasets with severe or extreme class imbalance, and provide an empirical analysis of strAEm++DD. We further conduct a comparative study, showing that the proposed method significantly outperforms existing baseline and advanced methods.

description: MOND is one of the most popular alternatives to Dark Matter (DM). While efforts to directly detect DM in laboratories have been steadily pursued over the years, the proposed Earth-based tests of MOND are still in their infancy. Some proposals recently appeared in the literature are briefly reviewed, and it is argued that collaborative efforts of theorists and experimenters are needed to move forward in this exciting new area. Possible future directions are outlined.

Biorthogonal Spline-Wavelets on the Interval - Stability and Moment Conditions

description: This paper is concerned with the construction of biorthogonal multiresolution analyses on [0,1] such that the corresponding wavelets realize any desired order of moment conditions throughout the interval. Our starting point is the family of biorthogonal pairs consisting of cardinal B-splines and compactly supported dual generators on ℝ developed by Cohen, Daubechies and Feauveau. In contrast to previous investigations we preserve the full degree of polynomial reproduction also for the dual multiresolution and prove in general that the corresponding modifications of dual generators near the end points of the interval still permit the biorthogonalization of the resulting bases. The subsequent construction of compactly supported biorthogonal wavelets is based on the concept of stable completions. As a first step we derive an initial decomposition of the spline spaces where the complement spaces between two successive levels are spanned by compactly supported splines which form uniformly stable bases on each level. As a second step these initial complements are then projected into the desired complements spanned by compactly supported biorthogonal wavelets. Since all generators and wavelets on the primal as well as on the dual side have finitely supported masks the corresponding decomposition and reconstruction algorithms are simple and efficient. The desired number of vanishing moments is implied by the polynomial exactness of the dual multiresolution. Again due to the polynomial exactness the primal and dual spaces satisfy corresponding Jackson estimates. In addition, Bernstein inequalities can be shown to hold for a range of Sobolev norms depending on the regularity of the primal and dual wavelets. Then it follows from general principles that the wavelets form Riesz bases for L2([0,1]) and that weighted sequence norms for the coefficients of such wavelet expansions characterize Sobolev spaces and their duals on [0,1] within a range depending on the parameters in the Jackson and Bernstein estimates.

description: We report the polarized optical light curve of a gamma-ray burst afterglow obtained using the RoboPol instrument. Observations began 655 seconds after the initial burst of gamma-rays from GRB131030A, and continued uninterrupted for 2 hours. The afterglow displayed a low, constant fractional linear polarization of $p = (2.1 \pm 1.6)\,\%$ throughout, which is similar to the interstellar polarization measured on nearby stars. The optical brightness decay is consistent with a forward-shock propagating in a medium of constant density, and the low polarization fraction indicates a disordered magnetic field in the shock front. This supports the idea that the magnetic field is amplified by plasma instabilities on the shock front. These plasma instabilities produce strong magnetic fields with random directions on scales much smaller than the total observable region of the shock, and the resulting randomly-oriented polarization vectors sum to produce a low net polarization over the total observable region of the shock.

Scaling Properties of Urban Facilities

description: Two measurements are employed to quantitatively investigate the scaling properties of the spatial distribution of urban facilities, the K function by number counting and the variance-mean relationship with the method of expanding bins. The K function and the variance-mean relationship are both power functions. It means that the spatial distribution of urban facilities are scaling invariant. Further analysis of more data (which includes 8 types of facilities in 37 major Chinese cities) shows that the exponents of the power function do not have systematic variations across facilities and cities, which suggests the possibility that the scaling rule is universal. A double stochastic process (DSP) model is proposed such that the two empirical results can both be embedded. Simulation of DSP yields better agreement with the urban data than of the correlated percolation model.

description: This is a deliverable related to the WP2 – Output Linked to Project Goals and, specifically, on Task 2.3 AI-based Data Operations Toolbox, which provides the relevant integrated solution of one of the main architectural pillars of the overall MOBISPACES platform. The AI-based Data Operations Toolbox aims to empower the data management capabilities of the integrated solution incorporating the technologies developed under the scope of WP4 ("AIbased Data Management for Green Data Operations"). This document will give the overview of each software component that consists of the AI-based Data Operations Toolbox and a demonstration of its use in reference to concrete use cases of the project. Last but not least, as this document is a demonstrator, we provide an accompanying guide to be served as the manual for using the first version of this technological pillar of MOBISPACES. 
The AI-based Data Operations Toolbox is a cutting-edge initiative focused on one hand on the data management aspects of the project offering four diverse but complementary data management systems, and on the other hand, on data operations with regards to the automation of the execution of complex analytical workflows over cloud or edge resources. 
In the introductory section, we first describe how the AI-based Data Operations Toolbox is positioned within the project architecture, introducing the software components that this architectural pillar consists of, while in the next section, we dive into more detail about each element, giving information of what they are offering, and providing a demonstration of their use under specific use cases coming from the pilots of the project when this was feasible. Moreover, we provide a complete guide on how to use, install, deploy and monitor all these software components to be used as the documentation of this first version of the AI-based Data Operations Toolbox. 
This deliverable has been published in M12 of the project, addressing the needs of MS5 ("Integrated results – Iteration I") whose main purpose is to provide the first version of the MOBISPACES platform, by delivering the first version of the integrated prototypes. At this phase of the project, we have achieved some basic integration among different prototypes of this architecture layer that has been documented in this deliverable. There are 2 more versions of this document planned to be delivered in M24 and M34 where an updated version of the documentation of the several software prototypes will be given, while we have planned to achieve a greater level of integration among them.
