description: Uniform hexagonal arrays of spherical micro-cavities are created in an elastomer film in a one-step process. The cavities are the imprints of water droplets condensed from saturated vapor in a heated closed container. The saturated vapor arises from evaporation of water from a reservoir within the container. Competition between droplet growth and curing of the elastomer film determines the structure of the resulting pattern.

description: We present a version of the twin Higgs mechanism with minimal symmetry structure and particle content. The model is built upon a composite Higgs theory with global $SO(6)/SO(5)$ symmetry breaking. The leading contribution to the Higgs potential, from the top sector, is solely cancelled via the introduction of a Standard Model neutral top partner. We show that the inherent $Z_2$ breaking of this construction is under control and of the right size to achieve electroweak symmetry breaking, with a fine-tuning at the level of $5-10\%$, and compatibly with the observed Higgs mass. We briefly discuss the particular phenomenological features of this scenario.

description: Abstract: Recent discrepancies between theoretical predictions and experimental data in multi-lepton plus b-jets analyses for the tt¯W± process, as reported by the ATLAS collaboration, have indicated that more accurate theoretical predictions and high precision observables are needed to constrain numerous new physics scenarios in this channel. To this end we employ NLO QCD computations with full off-shell top quark effects included to provide theoretical predictions for the R=σtt¯W+/σtt¯W- cross section ratio at the LHC with s=13 TeV. Depending on the transverse momentum cut on the b-jet we obtain 2–3% theoretical precision on R, which should help to shed some light on new physics effects that can reveal themselves only once sufficiently precise Standard Model theoretical predictions are available. Furthermore, triggered by these discrepancies we reexamine the charge asymmetry of the top quark and its decay products in the tt¯W± production process. In the case of charge asymmetries, that are uniquely sensitive to the chiral nature of possible new physics in this channel, theoretical uncertainties below 15% are obtained. Additionally, the impact of the top quark decay modelling is scrutinised by explicit comparison with predictions in the narrow-width approximation.

description: We present a finite difference time domain (FDTD) model for computation of A line scans in time domain optical coherence tomography (OCT). By simulating only the end of the two arms of the interferometer and computing the interference signal in post processing, it is possible to reduce the computational time required by the simulations and, thus, to simulate much bigger environments. Moreover, it is possible to simulate successive A lines and thus obtaining a cross section of the sample considered. In this paper we present the model applied to two different samples: a glass rod filled with water-sucrose solution at different concentrations and a peripheral nerve. This work demonstrates the feasibility of using OCT for non-invasive, direct optical monitoring of peripheral nerve activity, which is a long-sought goal of neuroscience.

description: Toluene and other aromatics have long been viewed as the dominant anthropogenic secondary organic aerosol (SOA) precursors, but the SOA mass yields from toluene reported in previous studies vary widely. Experiments conducted in the Carnegie Mellon University environmental chamber to study SOA formation from the photo-oxidation of toluene show significantly larger SOA production than parameterizations employed in current air-quality models. Aerosol mass yields depend on experimental conditions: yields are higher under higher UV intensity, under low-NOx conditions and at lower temperatures. The extent of oxidation of the aerosol also varies with experimental conditions, consistent with ongoing, progressive photochemical aging of the toluene SOA. Measurements using a thermodenuder system suggest that the aerosol formed under high- and low-NOx conditions is semi-volatile. These results suggest that SOA formation from toluene depends strongly on ambient conditions. An approximate parameterization is proposed for use in air-quality models until a more thorough treatment accounting for the dynamic nature of this system becomes available.

description: Lo stile educativo genitoriale è un costrutto articolato dagli studiosi nelle dimensioni di supporto e controllo. Il presente elaborato si pone l’obiettivo di analizzare e comparare un campione di 59 ricerche condotte nell’ambito della relazione tra quattro stili educativi (autorevole, autoritario, indulgente e disimpegnato) e diversi ambiti di sviluppo adolescenziale, dal 1989 ad oggi. Il campione di studi presi in esame è stato definito selezionando tutte le ricerche effettuate attraverso la somministrazione di questionari ad adolescenti, presenti in tre specifiche banche dati: “Réseau vaudois des bibliothèques”, “Sistema bibliotecario ticinese” e “Network of Libraries and Information Centers in Switzerland”. La rassegna effettuata fornisce quindi uno sguardo d’insieme sulle ricerche esistenti in quest’ambito e sulle future prospettive di analisi. Relatori: Luciana Castelli, Alice Ambrosetti.

La copia dal vero in educazione visiva: natura morta

description: Questa ricerca si occupa del disegno figurativo improntato al realismo attraverso un itinerario didattico orientato sulla tematica della natura morta. La ricerca indaga sulla rappresentazione grafica e pittorica trattata in maniera realistica e come la verosimiglianza possa rispondere ai traguardi di apprendimento in Educazione visiva e ai bisogni espressivi degli allievi del terzo ciclo scolastico. La tematica della natura morta, oltre che a orientare la cornice di senso del percorso didattico, porta i discenti a riflettere sui seguenti interrogativi: - Che cosa sono e cosa comportano la copia dal vero e la natura morta? - Come imparo a eseguire una copia dal vero? - Come realizzo una natura morta che parli di me? Quest’ultimo quesito solleva una questione identitaria che attiva l’allievo a ricercare e ad esprimere un legame affettivo con l’immagine. Il campione di riferimento è la 2E della Scuola media di Tesserete, composta da venti allievi. I dati emersi hanno permesso in primo luogo di far emergere certi limiti percettivi e cognitivi degli allievi messi a confronto con una copia dal vero. In seguito, tramite l’apprendimento di un metodo e di una tecnica, la maggior parte degli allievi ha potuto ottenere dei risultati soddisfacenti anche ai propri occhi. Sviluppare le competenze e gli strumenti necessari ad un primo approccio con la copia dal vero, ha permesso alla maggioranza degli alunni di affinare in primo luogo il proprio atto percettivo e, successivamente, sia la rappresentazione sia il gesto grafico.

description: This article presents a new algorithm for scheduling multistage batch plants with a large number of orders and sequence-dependent changeovers. Such problems are either intractable when solved with full-space approaches or poor solutions result. We use decomposition on the entire set of orders and derive the complete schedule in several iterations, by inserting a couple of orders at a time. The key idea is to allow for partial rescheduling without altering the main decisions in terms of unit assignments and sequencing (linked to the binary variables) so that the combinatorial complexity is kept at a manageable level. The algorithm has been implemented for three alternative continuous-time mixed integer linear programing models and tested through the solution of 10 example problems for different decomposition settings. The results show that an industrial-size scheduling problem with 50 orders, 17 units distributed over six stages can effectively be solved in roughly 6 min of computational time.

How to Quantize Forces(?): An Academic Essay How the Strings Could Enter Classical Mechanics

description: Geometrical formulation of classical mechanics with forces that are not necessarily potential-generated is presented. It is shown that a natural geometrical "playground" for a mechanical system of point particles lacking Lagrangian and/or Hamiltonian description is an odd dimensional line element contact bundle. Time evolution is governed by certain canonical two-form $Ω$ (an analog of $dp/\dq-dH/\dt$), which is constructed purely from forces and the metric tensor entering the kinetic energy of the system. Attempt to "dissipative quantization" in terms of the two-form $Ω$ is proposed. The Feynman's path integral over histories of the system is rearranged to a "world-sheet" functional integral. The "umbilical string" surfaces entering the theory connect the classical trajectory of the system and the given Feynman history. In the special case of potential-generated forces, "world-sheet" approach precisely reduces to the standard quantum mechanics. However, a transition probability amplitude expressed in terms of "string functional integral" is applicable (at least academically) when a general dissipative environment is discussed.

description: We consider a Bose-Einstein condensate of polar molecules in a harmonic trap, where the effective dipole may be tuned by an external field. We demonstrate that taking into account the dependence of the scattering length on the dipole moment is essential to reproducing the correct energies and for predicting the stability of the condensate. We do this by comparing Gross-Pitaevskii calculations with diffusion Monte Carlo calculations. We find very good agreement between the results obtained by these two approaches once the dipole dependence of the scattering length is taken into account. We also examine the behavior of the condensate in non-isotropic traps.

Interfaccia Meteo Generativa Interazione tra real-time data e componenti visivi

description: Oggigiorno viviamo in una società basata sui dati. Gran parte dei servizi che utilizziamo giornalmente, come applicazioni meteo o navigatori, attingono a banche dati per fornire all’utenza informazioni in tempo reale ed un’esperienza costantemente aggiornata. Questa consistente mole di dati ed informazioni viene comunicata e veicolata sotto forma di elementi e concetti visivi. Ne deriva che la chiarezza e l’intuitività di queste traduzioni compromettano e/o favoriscano una più rapida lettura e comprensione delle informazioni da parte dell’utente. Ciò non sempre accade nel campo della meteorologia dove le interfacce talvolta risultano sature di informazioni e poco chiare. Mi sono dunque interrogato su come tale contesto potesse essere reso maggiormente dinamico e suggestivo nella veicolazione e traduzione delle informazioni. Obiettivo principale di questa tesi è dunque approfondire tale tematica e studiare la possibile interazione real-time tra dati e componenti visive.

description: Planning robust robot manipulation requires good forward models that enable robust plans to be found. This work shows how to achieve this using a forward model learned from robot data to plan push manipulations. We explore learning methods (Gaussian Process Regression, and an Ensemble of Mixture Density Networks) that give estimates of the uncertainty in their predictions. These learned models are utilised by a model predictive path integral (MPPI) controller to plan how to push the box to a goal location. The planner avoids regions of high predictive uncertainty in the forward model. This includes both inherent uncertainty in dynamics, and meta uncertainty due to limited data. Thus, pushing tasks are completed in a robust fashion with respect to estimated uncertainty in the forward model and without the need of differentiable cost functions. We demonstrate the method on a real robot, and show that learning can outperform physics simulation. Using simulation, we also show the ability to plan uncertainty averse paths.

description: We propose a general superstructure and a model for the global optimization for integrated process water networks. The superstructure consists of multiple sources of water, water-using processes, wastewater treatment, and pre-treatment operations. Unique features are that all feasible interconnections are considered between them and multiple sources of water can be used. The proposed model is formulated as a nonlinear programing (NLP) and as a mixed integer nonlinear programing (MINLP) problem for the case when 0–1 variables are included for the cost of piping and to establish optimal trade-offs between cost and network complexity. To effectively solve the NLP and MINLP models to global optimality we propose tight bounds on the variables, which are expressed as general equations. We also incorporate the cut proposed by Karuppiah and Grossmann to significantly improve the strength of the lower bound for the global optimum. The proposed model is tested on several examples.
Stability Analysis of Fractional Differential Equations with Unknown Parameters

description: In this paper, the stability of fractional differential equations (FDEs) with unknown parameters is studied. FDEs bring many advantages to model the physical systems in the nature or man-made systems in the industry. Because this representation has a property between linear differential equations and nonlinear differential equations. Therefore, the designer may use the FDEs to model complex systems instead of nonlinear differential equations which have hard mathematical background. Using the graphical based D-decomposition method, we investigate the parametric stability analysis of FDEs without complicated mathematical analysis. To achieve this, stability boundaries are obtained firstly, and then the stability region set depending on the unknown parameters is found. The applicability of the presented method is shown considering some benchmark equations which are often used to verify the results of a new method. Simulation examples shown that the method is simple and give reliable stability results.

description: We present an exact solution of superstring theory that interpolates in time between an initial type 0 phase and a final phase whose physics is exactly that of the bosonic string. The initial theory is deformed by closed-string tachyon condensation along a lightlike direction. In the limit of large tachyon vev, the worldsheet conformal field theory precisely realizes the Berkovits-Vafa embedding of bosonic string theory into superstring theory. Our solution therefore connects the bosonic string dynamically with the superstring, settling a longstanding question about the relationship between the two theories.

description: Let $p$ be an odd prime number. Denote by $GL_n = GL(n,\mathbb F_p)$ the general linear group over the prime field $\mathbb F_p$. Each subgroup of $GL_n$ acts on the algebra $P_n=E(x_1,\ldots,x_n)\otimes \mathbb F_p(y_1,\ldots,y_n)$ in the usual manner. We grade $P_n$ by assigning $\dim x_i=1$ and $\dim y_i=2.$ This algebra is a module over the mod $p$ Steenrod algebra $\mathcal A_p$. The purpose of the paper is to compute the action of the Steenrod-Milnor operations on the generators of $P_2^{GL_2}$. More precisely, we explicitly determine the action of $St^{(i,j)}$ on the Dickson invariants $Q_{2,0}$ and $Q_{2,1}$.

The integrated \textit{Fermi}-LAT flux from 1 GeV to 100 GeV during the VERITAS detection is $(4.1 \pm 0.8) \times 10^{\textrm{-8}} ~\textrm{cm}^{\textrm{-2}}\textrm{s}^{\textrm{-1}}$, which is an order of magnitude larger than the four-year-averaged flux in the same energy range reported in the 3FGL catalog, ($4.0 \pm 0.1 \times 10^{\textrm{-9}} ~ \textrm{cm}^{\textrm{-2}}\textrm{s}^{\textrm{-1}}$). The detection with VERITAS triggered observations in the X-ray band with the \textit{Swift}-XRT. However, due to scheduling constraints \textit{Swift}-XRT observations were performed 67 hours after the VERITAS detection, not simultaneous with the VERITAS observations. The observed X-ray energy spectrum between 2 keV and 10 keV can be fitted with a power-law with a spectral index of $2.7 \pm 0.2$, and the integrated photon flux in the same energy band is $(3.6 \pm 0.6) \times 10^{-13} ~\textrm{cm}^{-2} \textrm{s}^{-1}$. EBL model-dependent upper limits of the blazar redshift have been derived. Depending on the EBL model used, the upper limit varies in the range from z $

description: We prove sufficient conditions for Topological Quantum Order at both zero and finite temperatures. The crux of the proof hinges on the existence of low-dimensional Gauge-Like Symmetries (that notably extend and differ from standard local gauge symmetries) and their associated defects, thus providing a unifying framework based on a symmetry principle. These symmetries may be actual invariances of the system, or may emerge in the low-energy sector. Prominent examples of Topological Quantum Order display Gauge-Like Symmetries. New systems exhibiting such symmetries include Hamiltonians depicting orbital-dependent spin exchange and Jahn-Teller effects in transition metal orbital compounds, short-range frustrated Klein spin models, and p+ip superconducting arrays. We analyze the physical consequences of Gauge-Like Symmetries (including topological terms and charges), discuss associated braiding, and show the insufficiency of the energy spectrum, topological entanglement entropy, maximal string correlators, and fractionalization in establishing Topological Quantum Order. General symmetry considerations illustrate that not withstanding spectral gaps, thermal fluctuations may impose restrictions on certain suggested quantum computing schemes and lead to "thermal fragility". Our results allow us to go beyond standard topological field theories and engineer systems with Topological Quantum Order.

description: Abstract: "This paper deals with the global optimization of networks consisting of splitters, mixers and linear process units and which involve multicomponent streams. Examples include pooling and blending systems and sharp separation networks. A reformulation-linearization technique is first applied to concentration and flow based models in order to obtain a relaxed LP formulation that provides a valid lower bound to the global optimum. This formulation is then used within a spatial branch and bound search. The application of this method is considered in detail for sharp separation systems with single feed and mixed products. Numerical results are presented on twelve test problems to show that only few nodes are commonly required in the branch and bound search."

description: Abstract: Squamous cell carcinoma of the conjunctiva is associated with a number of risk factors, including HIV infection, iatrogenic immunosuppression and atopy. In addition, several studies have suggested an involvement of HPV, based on the presence of viral DNA, but did not establish whether there was active infection or evidence of causal disease association. In this manuscript, 31 cases of conjunctival in situ squamous cell carcinoma were classified as HPV DNA-positive or -negative, before being analysed by immunohistochemistry to establish the distribution of viral and cellular biomarkers of HPV gene expression. Our panel included p16INK4a, TP53 and MCM, but also the virally encoded E4 gene product, which is abundantly expressed during productive infection. Subsequent in situ detection of HPV mRNA using an RNAscope approach confirmed that early HPV gene expression was occurring in the majority of cases of HPV DNA-positive conjunctival in situ squamous cell carcinoma, with all of these cases occurring in the atopic group. Viral gene expression correlated with TP53 loss, p16INK4a elevation, and extensive MCM expression, in line with our general understanding of E6 and E7’s role during transforming infection at other epithelial sites. A characteristic E4 expression pattern was detected in only one case. HPV mRNA was not detected in lower grades of dysplasia, and was not observed in cases that were HPV DNA-negative. Our study demonstrates an active involvement of HPV in the development of a subset of conjunctival in situ squamous cell carcinoma. No high-risk HPV types were detected other than HPV16. It appears that the conjunctiva is a vulnerable epithelial site for HPV-associated transformation. These cancers are defined by their pattern of viral gene expression, and by the distribution of surrogate markers of HPV infection.

description: In this study, explicit differential equations representing commutative pairs of some well-known second-order linear time-varying systems have been derived. The commutativity of these systems are investigated by considering 30 second-order linear differential equations with variable coefficients. It is shown that the system modeled by each one of these equations has a commutative pair with (or without) some conditions or not. There appear special cases such that both, only one or neither of the original system and its commutative pair has explicit analytic solution. Some benefits of commutativity have already been mentioned in the literature but a new application for in cryptology for obscuring transmitted signals in telecommunication is illustrated in this paper.

description: In view of a possible evolution of the CERN accelerator complex towards higher proton intensities, a 2.2 GeV H- linac with 4 MW beam power has been designed, for use in connection with an accumulator and compressor ring as proton driver of a muon-based Neutrino Factory. The high-energy part of this linac can use most of the RF equipment (superconducting cavities and klystrons) from the LEP collider after its decommissioning at the end of 2000. Recent results concerning low-beta superconducting cavities are presented, and the main characteristics of the linac design are described. The complete linac-based proton driver facility is outlined, and the impact on the linac design of the requirements specific to a Neutrino Factory is underlined.

description: Il benessere emotivo che s’instaura all’intero delle classi è fondamentale per riuscire a insegnare meglio e permettere agli allievi di apprendere nel modo più sereno possibile. M’interrogo profondamente su come vivono l’esperienza scolastica gli studenti, quali sentimenti, quali sensazioni provano, quali competenze socio-emotive possiedono e come riescono a utilizzarle. Nel 2010, nella provincia della British Columbia, è partito un progetto di ricerca che ha raccolto informazioni in merito allo sviluppo e al benessere dei ragazzi tra i nove e i dodici anni. Il nostro gruppo di ricerca al DFA compie una ricerca parallela adattata alla realtà ticinese. L’indagine ha permesso a 645 preadolescenti ticinesi di esprimere la loro opinione su sviluppo e benessere attraverso la somministrazione di un questionario. Ho scelto di approfondire il tema del benessere socio-emotivo dei ragazzi concentrando la mia attenzione su alcuni items inerenti autostima ed empatia. Capire come si sentono i ragazzi con loro stessi, come si relazionano con i compagni, permette di mirare al raggiungimento di un benessere emotivo generale che favorisce l’apprendimento. I ragazzi devono imparare a vedere se stessi da un punto di vista positivo e ottimista: grazie a quest’atteggiamento potranno affrontare ogni difficoltà senza lasciar governare i propri sentimenti dall’ansia e dalla negatività, sentimenti che pregiudicano la buona riuscita e ostacolano il raggiungimento degli obiettivi.

description: Time-resolved ultrafast x-ray scattering from photo-excited matter is an emerging method to image ultrafast dynamics in matter with atomic-scale spatial and temporal resolutions. For a correct and rigorous understanding of current and upcoming imaging experiments, we present the theory of time-resolved x-ray scattering from an incoherent electronic mixture using quantum electrodynamical theory of light-matter interaction. We show that the total scattering signal is an incoherent sum of the individual scattering signals arising from different electronic states and therefore heterodyning of the individual signals is not possible for an ensemble of gas-phase photo-excited molecules. We scrutinize the information encoded in the total signal for the experimentally important situation when pulse duration and coherence time of the x-ray pulse are short in comparison to the timescale of the vibrational motion and long in comparison to the timescale of the electronic motion, respectively. Finally, we show that in the case of an electronically excited crystal the total scattering signal imprints the interference of the individual scattering amplitudes associated with different electronic states and heterodyning is possible.

description: In this paper, we present the derivation of the multiparametric disaggregation technique (MDT) by Teles et al. (J. Glob. Optim., 2011) for solving nonconvex bilinear programs. Both upper and lower bounding formulations corresponding to mixed-integer linear programs are derived using disjunctive programming and exact linearizations, and incorporated into two global optimization algorithms that are used to solve bilinear programming problems. The relaxation derived using the MDT is shown to scale much more favorably than the relaxation that relies on piecewise McCormick envelopes, yielding smaller mixed-integer problems and faster solution times for similar optimality gaps. The proposed relaxation also compares well with general global optimization solvers on large problems.

description: A BeppoSAX survey of bright Neutron Star (NS) systems in globular clusters, together with the results obtained on Galactic LMXRB, suggests that a two-component model is a reasonable description of the 0.1-200 keV spectra. At energies lower than a few keV, a thermal component dominates, either due to the direct view of the NS surface, to the emission of the boundary layer, or to a multi-temperature blackbody originating in the accretion disk. At higher energies, a power-law with an high-energy cutoff is the likely signature of thermal Comptonization of soft X-ray photons, probably produced by the same thermal mechanisms as above. The plasma optical depth (electron temperature) correlates (anticorrelates) with the X-ray luminosity, suggesting that the properties of the Comptonizing plasma are driven by the X-ray energy output.

description: Microfluidic technology offers capabilities for the precise handling of small fluid volumes dispersed as droplets. To fully exploit this potential requires simultaneous generation of multiple size droplets.We demonstrate two methods for passively breaking larger drops into precisely controlled daughter drops using pressure-driven flow in simple microfluidic configurations: (i) a T junction and (ii) flow past isolated obstacles.We quantify conditions for breakup at a T junction and illustrate sequential breakup at T junctions for making small drops at high dispersed phase volume fractions.
The Role of DHI records in herd health programs
Creators: name: Stout, Jack D.
Publisher: name: The Bovine Practitioner
Year: 1978

description: Herd owners that insist on having herd health programs without including DHI reocrds as the criteria for measureing results are penalizing the veterinarian and themselves. Herd health programs should be profitable to both dairymen and veterinarian. Many studies list veterinary and drug costs at $15 to $20 per cow per year. A 100-cow herd on this basis would be a good addition to any verinarian's practice. Likewise, if the dairyman reaps his proportionate increased returns, he should welcome the expenditure. However, neither individual should plan programs without a means of measureing the results. DHI records will furnish the answers you need for both parties.
