description: We analyse the single-mode transmission of microwaves in a guide with internal random structure. The waveguide contains scatterers characterised by random heights and positions, corresponding to compositional and structural disorder. We measure the effects of cross-correlations between two kinds of disorder, showing how they enhance or attenuate the experimentally found transmission gaps generated by long-range self-correlations. The results agree with the theoretical predictions obtained for the aperiodic Kronig-Penney model and prove that self- and cross-correlations have relevant effects also in finite disordered samples of small size.

description: We generalize the Landau levels of two-dimensional Dirac fermions to three dimensions and above with the full rotational symmetry. Similarly to the two-dimensional case, there exists a branch of zero energy Landau levels of fractional fermion modes for the massless Dirac fermions. The spectra of other Landau levels distribute symmetrically with respect to the zero energy scaling with the square root of the Landau-level indices. This mechanism is a nonminimal coupling of Dirac fermions to the background fields. This high dimensional relativistic Landau-level problem is a square-root problem of its previous studied nonrelativistic version investigated in Li and Wu [arXiv:1103.5422 (2011)].
Il motivo del passante nella letteratura contemporanea: incontri pluridimensionali
Creators: name: Paone, Pina
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2013

description: Attraverso il presente saggio mi propongo di aprire una finestra sulle nuove prospettive offerte in tempi più recenti dal motivo dell’incontro con il passante, inteso come sconosciuto incontrato per caso in un luogo pubblico. Si tratta, in questi termini, di un’invenzione modernista, anticipata da alcuni esempi ottocenteschi: l’avventura del passante – sempre temporanea, effimera eccezione al quotidiano – è un’avventura cittadina, anzi metropolitana, e presuppone un fondamentale cambiamento di mentalità della persona rispetto a quella ancora raffigurata nelle opere della prima metà dell’Ottocento. In un assetto sociale tipicamente urbano, l’individuo deve adattarsi ad una nuova realtà composta da velocità, frantumazione della catena cronologica, privatizzazione del destino, accresciuta importanza del caso, epifanie nel quotidiano della folla. Il discorso sul passante letterario si incrocia, così, con quello sull’incontro casuale quale momento tematico e compositivo caratteristico della produzione letteraria a partire dalla fine dell’Ottocento, e con la questione del cambiamento del personaggio e dei luoghi coinvolti in tale incontro. Osserveremo, mediante l’analisi di tre esempi letterari contemporanei, l’evoluzione ultima del motivo del passante.

Reconciling the Galactic Bulge Turnoff Age Discrepancy with Enhanced Helium Enrichment

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)

description: We show that the factor $\sim$2 discrepancy between spectroscopic and photometric age determinations of the Galactic bulge main-sequence turnoff can be naturally explained by positing an elevated helium enrichment for the bulge relative to that assumed by standard isochrones. We obtain an upper bound on the helium enrichment parameter of the bulge $(ΔY/ΔZ)_{\rm{Bulge}} \lesssim 5.0$ given the requirement that the spectroscopic and photometric ages be consistent and the limiting condition of instantaneous star formation. The corresponding mean age for the bulge is $t_{\rm{Bulge}} \approx 10$ Gyr. We discuss phenomenological evidence that the bulge may have had a chemical evolution that is distinct from the solar neighborhood in this manner, and we make several testable predictions. Should this emerging picture of the bulge as helium-enhanced hold, it will require the development of new isochrones, new model atmospheres, and modified analysis and cosmological interpretation of the integrated light of other bulges and elliptical galaxies.

Advantage, access, and anticipation : the impact of policy, ethics, law, and economics on stem cell research
Creators: name: Scott, Christopher Thomas
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: This program of work examines the effects of policy, ethics, and economics on the emerging field of stem cell research. The research seeks to understand how these factors influence the actions of stem cell scientists working in the United States and other jurisdictions, and collectively, these how these actions change the trajectory of a new biomedical field. In this work, I ask three fundamental questions: 1) In the United States, what are the political, social, and historical contexts that affect the deliberations of stem cell scientists? 2) How do stem cell scientists and other stakeholders describe their social worlds and their decisions as they grapple with policy, ethics, law, and economics in a rapidly evolving and controversial area of bioscience? And, 3) How do these individual and collective actions change the trajectory of stem cell research and experimental treatments for disability and disease? An approach using mixed methods is used to qualitatively and quantitatively examine these questions in four studies. Results of the first study describe the history of stem cell research in the United States, showing how the field is defined through its ethical, social, scientific and political discourse. The second, quantitative, project probes how embryonic stem cell scientists obtain and use essential research tools to do their work, and how policy can impact international trends in productivity. How stakeholders such as patients, scientists, and government officials communicate the results of stem cell research through the popular media forms the basis of the third quantitative effort. The final study is devoted to an in-depth ethical analysis of the world's first clinical trial using human embryonic stem cells. Overall, the results from this research provide new evidence that policy makers, patients, scientists, and stakeholders can use for navigating what is arguably called science's most promising frontier.

description: An important problem that commonly arises in areas such as internet traffic-flow analysis, phylogenetics and electrical circuit design, is to find a representation of any given metric $D$ on a finite set by an edge-weighted graph, such that the total edge length of the graph is minimum over all such graphs. Such a graph is called an optimal realization and finding such realizations is known to be NP-hard. Recently Varone presented a heuristic greedy algorithm for computing optimal realizations. Here we present an alternative heuristic that exploits the relationship between realizations of the metric $D$ and its so-called tight span $T_D$. The tight span $T_D$ is a canonical polytopal complex that can be associated to $D$, and our approach explores parts of $T_D$ for realizations in a way that is similar to the classical simplex algorithm. We also provide computational results illustrating the performance of our approach for different types of metrics, including $l_1$-distances and two-decomposable metrics for which it is provably possible to find optimal realizations in their tight spans.

description: We consider bound states of asymmetric three-body systems confined to two dimensions. In the universal regime, two energy ratios and two mass ratios provide complete knowledge of the three-body energy measured in units of one two-body energy. The lowest number of stable bound states is produced when one mass is larger than two similar masses. We focus on selected asymmetric systems of interest in cold atom physics. The scaled three-body energy and the two scaled two-body energies are related through an equation for a supercircle whose radius increases almost linearly with three-body energy. The exponents exhibit an increasing behavior with three-body energy. The mass dependence is highly non-trivial. We give a simple relation that predicts the universal three-body energy.

La recensione esamina l'ultimo romanzo di Walter Siti con attenzione particolare al rapporto obliquo e scivoloso che si viene a instaurare tra segno e referente, il primo diventato autonomo e il secondo variabile. La natura virtuale della finanza si riflette e condiziona identità, corpi, relazioni geografiche, modelli etici, connettendo i vari campi tramite una stessa archeologia che ne forgia gli spazi. Michel Foucault e Merleau-Ponty fanno da guida in questa lettura.

description: Lo studio delle morfologie cui è ricorsa la letteratura per l’infanzia occidentale si spiega anche alla luce delle recenti scoperte in merito al pensiero controfattuale dei bambini, ossia il riferimento da un lato a ciò che non esiste, che potrebbe avvenire in futuro o che sarebbe potuto avvenire in passato se si fossero date condizioni differenti, dall’altro a mondi inesistenti e del tutto implausibili, come testimoniato dal genere fantasy. Contrariamente a quanto sostenuto da Piaget, le neuroscienze identificano oggi nella corteccia pre-frontale la regione cui si riconoscono prerogative tradizionalmente antitetiche quali la pianificazione delle azioni, la progettualità e l’immaginazione.

Growth of magnetic fields in accreting millisecond pulsars

description: R-modes can generate strong magnetic fields in the core of accreting millisecond neutron stars (NSs). The diffusion of these fields outside the core causes the growth of the external magnetic field and thus it affects the evolution of the spin down rates $\dot{P}$ of the millisecond pulsars (MSPs). The diffusion of the internal magnetic field provides a new evolutionary path for the MSPs. This scenario could explain the large $\dot{P}$ of the pulsars J1823-3021A and J1824-2452A.

Unification of the conditional probability and semiclassical interpretations for the problem of time in quantum theory
Creators: name: Arce, Julio César
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We show that the time-dependent Schrödinger equation (TDSE) is the phenomenological dynamical law of evolution unraveled in the classical limit from a timeless formulation in terms of probability amplitudes conditioned by the values of suitably chosen internal clock variables, thereby unifying the conditional probability interpretation (CPI) and the semiclassical approach for the problem of time in quantum theory. Our formalism stems from an exact factorization of the Hamiltonian eigenfunction of the clock plus system composite, where the clock and system factors play the role of marginal and conditional probability amplitudes, respectively. Application of the Variation Principle leads to a pair of exact coupled pseudoeigenvalue equations for these amplitudes, whose solution requires an iterative self-consistent procedure. The equation for the conditional amplitude constitutes an effective "equation of motion" for the quantum state of the system with respect to the clock variables. These coupled equations also provide a convenient framework for treating the back-reaction of the system on the clock at various levels of approximation. At the lowest level, when the WKB approximation for the marginal amplitude is appropriate, in the classical limit of the clock variables the TDSE for the system emerges as a matter of course from the conditional equation. In this connection, we provide a discussion of the characteristics required by physical systems to serve as good clocks. This development is seen to be advantageous over the original CPI and semiclassical approach since it maintains the essence of the conventional formalism of quantum mechanics, admits a transparent interpretation, avoids the use of the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, and resolves various objections raised about them.

Hydrothermal pretreatment of softwood biomass and bark for pelletization
Creators: name: Tooyserkani, Zahra
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: Densification can resolve the logistical challenges encountered when large volumes of biomass are required for conversion processes to benefit from economies-of-scale. Despite the higher density of pellets, they easily disintegrate into fines due to impact or moisture sorption during handling and storage. Fines accumulation can lead to explosion, off-gassing and self-combustion, threatening the occupational health and safety of the workers. The current study investigates the use of several hydrothermal pretreatments to improve pellet quality in terms of mechanical strength and moisture sorption resistance, while lowering energy input during size reduction, drying and densification steps. Pretreatment of ground softwood particles (Pine, Spruce, Douglas fir whitewood and bark) with external saturated steam at 220°C for 5 min resulted in the higher calorific values, higher hydrophobicity and higher carbon percentage. These changes along with the dark brownish colour of steam treated material indicated a mild degree of torrefaction when compared to dry torrefaction at higher temperatures. Despite a slightly lower density, the mechanical strength of pellets made of steam treated particles increased considerably. Mechanical energy input for pelletization of treated material was higher than the untreated pellets when compressed under the same force for all species and bark samples. Hydrothermal pretreatment of wet Douglas fir wood particles, by steam generated from the moisture inside the material, resulted in the same characteristics as those obtained from pretreatments by external steam. Increased treatment temperature increased the hydrophobicity compared to untreated pellets. Sulfur-dioxide catalyzed steam pretreatment substantially reduced the particle size of Douglas fir woodchips, eliminating any further grinding requirement for pelletization. The SO₂-catalyzed steam treated pellets had a higher density and exhibited a two-time higher mechanical strength compared to untreated pellets. Despite a higher moisture adsorption capacity than the untreated, treated pellets remained intact under highly humid (30°C, 90% RH) conditions. The high heating values, low ash content and good overall carbohydrate recovery of SO₂-catalyzed steam treated pellets indicate their potential suitability for both biochemical and thermo-chemical applications.

description: We reexamine the Parisi-Klauder conjecture for complex e^{iθ/2} ϕ^4 measures with a Wick rotation angle 0 <= θ/2 < π/2 interpolating between Euclidean and Lorentzian signature. Our main result is that the asymptotics for short stochastic times t encapsulates information also about the equilibrium aspects. The moments evaluated with the complex measure and with the real measure defined by the stochastic Langevin equation have the same t -> 0 asymptotic expansion which is shown to be Borel summable. The Borel transform correctly reproduces the time dependent moments of the complex measure for all t, including their t -> infinity equilibrium values. On the other hand the results of a direct numerical simulation of the Langevin moments are found to disagree from the `correct' result for t larger than a finite t_c. The breakdown time t_c increases powerlike for decreasing strength of the noise's imaginary part but cannot be excluded to be finite for purely real noise. To ascertain the discrepancy we also compute the real equilibrium distribution for complex noise explicitly and verify that its moments differ from those obtained with the complex measure.

Eloquence (‘Beredsamkeit’) and Rhetoric (‘Rhetoric’) as Terms and Lexemes.  The Concept of Rhetoric in the Dictionary Deutsches Wörterbuch of Jacob und Wilhelm Grimm in the Context of European Idea of the ‘National Language’ in the 19th Century
Creators: name: Haase, Fee-Alexandra
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2013

description: This article focuses on the European heritage of rhetoric in the 18th century within the dictionary Deutsches Wörterbuch by the brothers Jacob und Wilhelm Grimm as a case of transformation of knowledge from the classical language of scholarship - Latin - to the vernacular of Germany in scholarly literature. The dictionary Deutsches Wörterbuch begun by the Grimm brothers was finally edited in the 20th century. It is a source for the historical terms used in the German language in the written and published books prior to the first half of the 19th century. The Deutsches Wörterbuch presents historical terms, which are documents of the usage of the German language since the time of Luther, and also newly created terms resulting from translations. The concept of «rhetoric» in the dictionary demonstrates this dichotomy. The effects this dictionary had on its readers’ understanding of language will be shown in contrast to other European movements of national identity in the 19th century.

description: Direct detection strategies are proposed for dark matter particles with MeV to GeV mass. In this largely unexplored mass range, dark matter scattering with electrons can cause single-electron ionization signals, which are detectable with current technology. Ultraviolet photons, individual ions, and heat are interesting alternative signals. Focusing on ionization, we calculate the expected dark matter scattering rates and estimate the sensitivity of possible experiments. Backgrounds that may be relevant are discussed. Theoretically interesting models can be probed with existing technologies, and may even be within reach using ongoing direct detection experiments. Significant improvements in sensitivity should be possible with dedicated experiments, opening up a window to new regions in dark matter parameter space.

description: Esce in Italia per i tipi di Marchese Editore e la cura di Donatella Siviero un curioso romanzo apparso in Spagna nel 1886. Ideato da Sinesio Delgado, ma scritto a più mani in collaborazione con altri dieci autori, e pubblicato a puntate su una rivista letteraria madrilena, il romanzo non rappresenta solo un ludico esercizio parodico, ingegnoso e divertente, ma lascia intravedere nella produzione romanzesca spagnola del tardo Ottocento aperture inaspettate e spazi di sperimentazione inediti. Un romanzo che, seppure maturato nell’orbita di una narrativa minore e della letteratura di consumo, rivela uno sguardo attento a quanto accadeva fuori dai confini spagnoli, nonché un’inventiva e una capacità di giocare con le strutture della narrazione che, nel superamento dei limiti della scrittura realista, preparano il terreno per formule narrative che, di lì a poco, con ben altre implicazioni, praticheranno gli scrittori del primo Novecento e le Avanguardie.

description: In this paper we prove that the generating series of the Poincare polynomials of quasihomogeneous Hilbert schemes of points in the plane has a beautiful decomposition into an infinite product. We also compute the generating series of the numbers of quasihomogeneous components in a moduli space of sheaves on the projective plane. The answer is given in terms of characters of the affine Lie algebra $\hat{sl}_m$.

Background: Obstetric fistula is a maternal morbidity creating devastating health problems for the women. Continuous and uncontrollable leaking of urine or faeces from vagina can lead to life changing stigmatization for women in third world countries. The underlying factors and consequences of this problem are not yet fully identified and adequately documented in Ethiopia. Methods: This study is based on the Ethiopian Demographic and Health Survey data (EDHS, 2005). The survey collected information on a total of 14,070 women who were interviewed face to face on their background characteristics as well as reproductive health issues, out of which 3178 women had complete measurements and were considered in this study. Descriptive and binary logistic regressions techniques were used using demographic, socio-economic, health and environmental related variables as explanatory variables and status of obstetric fistula as a response variable. Results: The results showed that geographical region, place of residence, educational status, age at first birth, age at first marriage, employment status, place of delivery and follow up of antenatal care during pregnancy were significant determinant factors of obstetric fistula in Ethiopia. Conclusion: The study showed that demographic, socio-economic, environmental and health related variables have an important effect on determinants of obstetric fistula in Ethiopia.

description: Gli Approcci plurali alle lingue e alle culture si basano su attività di insegnamento-apprendimento che coinvolgono contemporaneamente più (= più di una) varietà linguistiche e culturali. Il CARAP si propone come strumento che consente di sviluppare in un modo molto concreto la concezione della competenza plurilingue ed interculturale promossa dal Consiglio d’Europa con il Quadro Comune Europeo di Riferimento per le Lingue. La pubblicazione ed il sito web propongono un ampia lista di descrittori di competenze e risorse (saperi, sapere essere e saper fare), che si considera necessario sviluppare nella prospettiva di un’educazione plurilingue ed interculturale.

A Framework of Reference for Pluralistic Approaches. Competences and resources

The term pluralistic approaches to languages and cultures refers to didactic approaches which involve the use of several (or at least more than one) varieties of languages or cultures simultaneously during the teaching process. By abandoning the “compartmentalised” view of an individual’s linguistic and cultural competence(s), this publication is a valuable step towards implementing the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages, in particular its rationale on plurilingual and intercultural competence. The publication and this website present a comprehensive list of descriptors (Knowledge, Skills and Attitudes) considered necessary within the perspective of a plurilingual and intercultural education.

La nozione di Grammatica e l’insegnamento di L2
Creators: name: Ciliberti, Anna
Publisher: name: Italiano LinguaDue
Year: 2013

description: Il tema del mio contributo riguarda la nozione di Grammatica ed il suo insegnamento in contesti di apprendimento non spontaneo di lingue2. Prima di affrontarlo prendo brevemente in considerazione il concetto di lingua ‒ sovraordinato a quello di Grammatica ‒ per indagare come esso sia stato più frequentemente inteso nelle scienze del linguaggio e nell’insegnamento di L2. Analizzo poi due modi di guardare alla Grammatica, rappresentativi di posizioni apparentemente distanti ma in realtà complementari: Grammatica nella comunicazione e Grammatica della comunicazione: vale a dire Grammatica intesa come sistema formale e strutturale e Grammatica vista invece come un importante strumento dell’agire sociale. Mi soffermo infine sulla rilevanza descrittiva ed applicativa che le due prospettive assumono nell’insegnamento/apprendimento di L2 in quanto atte a far acquisire consapevolezza metalinguistica attraverso la riflessione, da un lato, su tutte le regolarità presenti nel linguaggio e non soltanto su quelle di tipo formale e frasale, d’altro lato, attraverso la riflessione sull’intersezione ed i raccordi esistenti tra Grammatica ed interazione.

The notion of grammar and L2 teaching

This paper studies the concept of teaching grammar in non-spontaneous L2 learning contexts. First we briefly consider the concept of language – that of the higher-level Grammar – to investigate how it has most frequently been understood in language sciences and L2 teaching. Then we analyze two ways of looking at grammar, which appear to be distant but are actually complementary: grammar in communication and the grammar of communication, namely grammar as a formal, structuralsystem and grammar as an important instrument for social action. We reflect on the descriptive and applicablerelevance that these two perspectives take on in L2 teaching/learning. Thisreflection, on the one hand, is aimed at the acquisition ofmetalinguistic awareness aboutall the regularities of language, not only the formal and phrasal ones, while on the other hand, we reflect onabout the intertwining and connection between grammar and interaction.

description: Real and virtual contributions to the quark-initiated forward jet vertex in QCD are calculated at next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy using Lipatov's effective action, valid in the high energy multi-Regge limit. A regularization of longitudinal divergencies is proposed which allows for the determination of jet observables. Agreement with previous results in the literature is found.

description: Single photon sensitivity is an important property of certain detection systems. This work investigated the single photon sensitivity of the Adaptive Gain Integrating Pixel Detector (AGIPD) and its dependence on possible detector noise values. Due to special requirements at the European X-ray Free Electron Laser (XFEL) the AGIPD finds the number of photons absorbed in each pixel by integrating the total signal. Photon counting is done off line on a thresholded data set. It was shown that AGIPD will be sensitive to single photons of 8 keV energy or more (detection efficiency $\gg$ 50%, less than 1 count due to noise per 10$^6$ pixels). Should the final noise be at the lower end of the possible range (200 - 400 electrons) single photon sensitivity can also be achieved at 5 keV beam energy. It was shown that charge summing schemes are beneficial when the noise is sufficiently low. The total detection rate of events is increased and the probability to count a single event multiple times in adjacent pixels is reduced by a factor of up to 40. The entry window of AGIPD allows 3 keV photons to reach the sensitive volume with approximately 70% probability. Therefore the low energy performance of AGIPD was explored, finding a maximum noise floor below 0.035 hits/pixel/frame at 3 keV beam energy. Depending on the noise level and selected threshold this value can be reduced by a factor of approximately 10. Even though single photon sensitivity, as defined in this work, is not given, imaging at this energy is still possible, allowing Poisson noise limited performance for signals significantly above the noise floor.

description: Recent experiments on a $\2d$ Fermi gas find an undamped breathing mode at twice the trap frequency over a wide range of parameters. To understand this seemingly scale-invariant behavior in a system with a scale, we derive two exact results valid across the entire BCS-BEC crossover at all temperatures. First, we relate the shift of the mode frequency from its scale-invariant value to $γ_d \equiv (1+2/d)P-ρ(\partial P/\partialρ)_s$ in $d$ dimensions. Next, we relate $γ_d$ to dissipation via a new low-energy bulk viscosity sum rule. We argue that $\2d$ is special, with its logarithmic dependence of the interaction on density, and thus $γ_2$ is small in both the BCS and BEC regimes, even though $P - 2\varepsilon/d$, sensitive to the dimer binding energy that breaks scale invariance, is not.

 Diagnosis. See Larsen (2005).
 Remarks. This comparatively genus-rich and morphologically disparate family is also relatively weakly demarcated from the families Tanaellidae and Leptognathiidae (Larsen 2005) and future revisions based on updated phylogenetic analyses will undoubtedly restructure this classification. It is also almost certain that the family is, in reality, much better represented in Japanese waters, Japan Trench, and the Kurile-Kamchatka Trench than indicated by the few taxa recorded in this study.
