description: We examine the propagation of gravitational waves in the new field theory of gravitation recently proposed by Novello-De Lorenci-Luciane (NDL). This examination is done on a solvable case corresponding to a spherically symmetric static configuration. We show that in NDL theory the velocity of gravitational waves is lower than light velocity. We point out some consequences of this result and suggest a possible scenario for its verification.
Suppression of Shastry-Sutherland phase driven by electronic concentration reduction in magnetically frustrated Ce$_2$Pd$_2$Sn$_{1-y}$In$_y$ alloys

description: Shastry-Sutherland lattice was observed as alternative ground state in Rare Earth intermetallic with Mo$_2$B$_2$Fe and U$_2$Pt$_2$Sn anisotropic structures where magnetic frustration is favored. In the case of Ce$_2$Pd$_2$Sn, it was shown that such phase can be suppressed by the application of magnetic field and, in this work, its stability is studied as a function of the electronic concentration by doping the Sn(4+) lattice with In(3+) atoms. Magnetic and specific heat measurements show that around 50\% substitution the Shastry Sutherland lattice vanishes in a critical point. This result confirms the strong dependence of that phase on the electron density because a recent investigation on the Pd rich solid solution Ce$_{2+ε}$Pd$_{2-ε}$In$_{1-x}$Sn$_x$ (with $ε< 0$) demonstrates that atomic disorder dominates the phase diagram at intermediate Sn/In concentration inhibiting magnetic frustration effects. In the alloys investigated in this work, the $ε>0$ character stabilizes the ferromagnetic ground state all along the concentration, allowing the Shastry Sutherland lattice formation on the Sn rich side.

description: In this booklet, we present what transformative adaptation means in practice based on a review of theoretical and empirical studies. We first introduce a conceptual understanding to differentiate transformative adaptation from other types of adaptation based on a review of scientific literature (Chapter 2). We then describe an overall strategy to use nature to adapt to climate change (Chapter 3). We complement this theoretical discussion with concrete examples based on Conservation International’s experience implementing projects related to the use of nature to help people adapt to climate change in transformative ways (Chapter 4). In addition, we present a brief overview on the major financial initiatives that are supporting transformative adaptation (Chapter 5). Finally, we present methods to help design projects or plans that consider transformative adaptation (Chapter 6).

description: A brief report is presented on the effect of viscoelastic losses in a high density contrast sonic band-gap material of close-packed rubber spheres in air. The scattering properties of such a material are computed with an on-shell multiple scattering method, properties which are compared with the lossless case. The existence of an appreciable omnidirectional gap in the transmission spectrum, when losses are present, is also reported.

description: Αντικείμενο της παρούσας διπλωματικής εργασίας αποτελεί ο σχεδιασμός ενός κέντρου ψυχικής υγείας και αποκατάστασης, στις Σίσες Ρεθύμνης, Κρήτης. Από την αρχαιότητα η θεραπεία των “τρελών” γινόταν με τον εγκλεισμό τους σε άσυλα, χρησιμοποιώντας την πειθαρχία και την τιμωρία ως μεθόδους αντιμετώπισης. Από τις αρχές του 18ου αιώνα η τρέλα μετονομάστηκε σε ψυχική ασθένεια, δίνοντας το έναυσμα για την αναζήτηση επιστημονικών τρόπων θεραπείας. Με την συνεχή εξέλιξη των θεραπευτικών μεθόδων, προκύπτει η ανάγκη για μετατροπή των δομών ψυχικής υγείας, από ένα απλό πάροχο υπηρεσιών σε χώρο όπου οι θεραπευόμενοι αισθάνονται ασφάλεια, αποδοχή και κατανόηση, δηλαδή σε καταφύγιο. Η καλλιέργεια της συναισθηματικής ασφάλειας, ο σεβασμός στην ιδιωτικότητα του κάθε ασθενή και η αίσθηση του “ανήκειν” είναι μερικά από τα χαρακτηριστικά που αλλάζουν τα δεδομένα στο σχεδιασμό των κέντρων ψυχικής υγείας. Η απρόσκοπτη θέα προς τη θάλασσα σε συνδυασμό με τον φυσικό φωτισμό, αναγεννά το αίσθημα της ηρεμίας και της ελευθερίας κατά τη διάρκεια της φιλοξενίας, ενώ η ένταξη του κτιρίου στο ανάγλυφο αναπτύσσει το αίσθημα της ασφάλειας και ενισχύει την αδιάκοπη επαφή το ασθενούς με τη φύση, χαρακτηριστικά των σύγχρονων μεθόδων θεραπείας. Ο αντίκτυπος της αρχιτεκτονικής δομής στην ανθρώπινη ψυχολογία καθιστά ως βασικές σχεδιαστικές παραμέτρους τις συναισθηματικές αντιδράσεις και μεταπτώσεις του ανθρώπου.

description: Phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-triphosphate (PIP3) plays a key role in neuronal polarization and axon formation. PIP3-containing vesicles are transported to axon tips by the kinesin KIF13B via an adaptor protein, centaurin α1 (CENTA1). KIF13B interacts with CENTA1 through its forkhead-associated (FHA) domain. We solved the crystal structures of CENTA1 in ligand-free, KIF13B-FHA domain-bound, and PIP3 head group (IP4)-bound conformations, and the CENTA1/KIF13B-FHA/IP4 ternary complex. The first pleckstrin homology (PH) domain of CENTA1 specifically binds to PIP3, while the second binds to both PIP3 and phosphatidylinositol 3,4-biphosphate (PI(3,4)P(2)). The FHA domain of KIF13B interacts with the PH1 domain of one CENTA1 molecule and the ArfGAP domain of a second CENTA1 molecule in a threonine phosphorylation-independent fashion. We propose that full-length KIF13B and CENTA1 form heterotetramers that can bind four phosphoinositide molecules in the vesicle and transport it along the microtubule.

description: We determine the scaling functions describing the crossover from Ising-like critical behavior to classical critical behavior in two-dimensional systems with a variable interaction range. Since this crossover spans several decades in the reduced temperature as well as in the finite-size crossover variable, it has up to now largely evaded a satisfactory numerical determination. Using a new Monte Carlo method, we could obtain accurate results for sufficiently large interactions ranges. Our data cover the full crossover region both above and below the critical temperature and support the hypothesis that the crossover functions are universal. Also the so-called effective exponents are discussed and we show that these can vary nonmonotonically in the crossover region.

(Generalized) Conformal Quantum Mechanics of 0-Branes and Two-Dimensional Dilaton Gravity

description: We study the relation between the (generalized) conformal quantum mechanics of 0-branes and the two-dimensional dilaton gravity. The two-dimensional actions obtained from the supergravity effective actions for the (dilatonic) 0-branes through the compactification on a sphere are related to known two-dimensional dilaton gravity models. The SL(2,R) symmetry of the (generalized) conformal quantum mechanics is realized within such two-dimensional models. The two-dimensional dilatonic gravity model derived from the non-dilatonic 0-brane action is related to the Liouville theory and therefore is conformal, whereas the two-dimensional model derived from the dilatonic 0-brane action does not have the conformal symmetry.

description: We costruct the relativistic operator of the quadrupole moment of two-particle composite spin one systems with zero orbital moment of the relative motion and derive explicit analytical expression for the quadrupole moment using the approach to relativistic composite systems based on our version of the instant-form relativistic quantum mechanics (RQM). We calculate the quadrupole moments of the rho meson and of the S-wave deuteron without any free parameters, using our unified pi&rho model (Phys. Rev.D 93, 036007 (2016); 97, 033007 (2018)) and our previous results on deuteron. Our calculation gives Q_rho=-0.158+-0.04 GeV^-2 and Q_d=-1.4*10^-4 GeV^-2. Having in our disposition the rather general form of the quadrupole-moment operator we for the first time formulate the problem of the upper and lower bounds for possible values of the quadrupole moment of a two-particle system with indicated quantum numbers for a large range of constituent masses, and partially solve it.

description: [Martino's Final Thoughts: From the “Prophecy” of the «Electronic Village» to the Observation of the Infosphere] Michelangelo Pira’s prophetic vision, as expressed in Il villaggio elettronico, remarkably anticipates the socio-technological dynamics of the digital age. Through an in-depth exploration of the anthropological, legal, and social dimensions of the global network, the “electronic village” is portrayed as a metaphor for universal connectivity and a blueprint for participatory digital democracy. Focusing on critical challenges such as the concentration of informational power and digital inequalities, this study advocates for a network that is both inclusive and sustainable. Pira’s intellectual contributions remain a vital framework for shaping a digital future centered on justice, democracy, and human dignity.

description: В настоящее время перспективным методом получения паток различного состава, сахаристых продуктов и кристаллической глюкозы является применение биокатализаторов для гидролиза крахмала и крахмалсодержащего сырья. Основные потребители крахмальной патоки, глюкозных и других сиропов – производители различных безалкогольных и алкогольных напитков, мороженого, кондитерских изделий (кроме шоколада), а также хлебопекарные предприятия. Использование патоки приводит к повышению эффективности производственного процесса благодаря контролю ферментативного осахаривания. Для ферментативного осахаривания обычно используют глюкоамилазные ферментные препараты. Зарубежная и отечественная промышленность выпускает огромное количество биокатализаторов белковой природы – глюкоамилазных ферментных препаратов. Одним из главных показателей ферментного препарата является его каталитическая активность, поэтому поиск новых, более экономичных методик ее определения актуален, так как ферментные препараты являются достаточно дорогостоящими. Целью научной работы являлась разработка новой методики определения глюкоамилазной активности ферментных препаратов, применяемых в пищевой промышленности. Показана возможность определения активности ферментного препарата глюкоамилазы с применением современных физико-химических методов анализа, а именно электрохимического метода анализа, который ранее не использовался для этих целей. Полученные данные по определению активности глюкоамилазных препаратов по предложенному способу полностью совпадают с результатами колориметрического метода, используемого в настоящее время в качестве эталонного. Достоинствами предложенной методики является быстрота выполнения анализов с сохранением их точности, а также отсутствие необходимости использования в процессе определений дорогостоящего и дефицитного препарата – пероксидазы. Таким образом, реализация электрохимического метода (потенциометрии) не связана с использованием сложной, дорогостоящей аппаратуры и отличается простотой приборного оформления.
Quantum effects in the collective light scattering by coherent atomic recoil in a Bose-Einstein condensate

description: We extend the semiclassical model of the collective atomic recoil laser (CARL) to include the quantum mechanical description of the center-of-mass motion of the atoms in a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC). We show that when the average atomic momentum is less than the recoil momentum $\hbar\vec q$, the CARL equations reduce to the Maxwell-Bloch equations for two momentum levels. In the conservative regime (no radiation losses), the quantum model depends on a single collective parameter, $ρ$, that can be interpreted as the average number of photons scattered per atom in the classical limit. When $ρ\gg 1$, the semiclassical CARL regime is recovered, with many momentum levels populated at saturation. On the contrary, when $ρ\le 1$, the average momentum oscillates between zero and $\hbar\vec q$, and a periodic train of $2π$ hyperbolic secant pulses is emitted. In the dissipative regime (large radiation losses) and in a suitable quantum limit, a sequential superfluorescence scattering occurs, in which after each process atoms emit a $π$ hyperbolic secant pulse and populate a lower momentum state. These results describe the regular arrangement of the momentum pattern observed in recent experiments of superradiant Rayleigh scattering from a BEC.

description: For $N$ interacting particles in a one dimensional random potential, we study the structure of the corresponding network in Hilbert space. The states without interaction play the role of the ``sites''. The hopping terms are induced by the interaction. When the one body states are localized, we numerically find that the set of directly connected ``sites'' is multifractal. For the case of two interacting particles, the fractal dimension associated to the second moment of the hopping term is shown to characterize the Golden rule decay of the non interacting states and the enhancement factor of the localization length.

description: The challenge to obtain from the Euclidean Bethe--Salpeter amplitude the amplitude in Minkowski is solved by resorting to un-Wick rotating the Euclidean homogeneous integral equation. The results obtained with this new practical method for the amputated Bethe--Salpeter amplitude for a two-boson bound state reveals a rich analytic structure of this amplitude, which can be traced back to the Minkowski space Bethe--Salpeter equation using the Nakanishi integral representation. The method can be extended to small rotation angles bringing the Euclidean solution closer to the Minkowski one and could allow in principle the extraction of the longitudinal parton density functions and momentum distribution amplitude, for example.

description: Considering increasing requirements to the coordinates measurement precision by the end of XX century International Astronomical Union commenced implementation of the new astrometric system ICRF (International Celestial Reference Frame). This quasi-inertial reference frame system centered in the barycenter of the Solar System and has axes defined by the positions of distant extragalactic sources - frames. Unlike equatorial system ICRF has no shortcomings of the coordinates identification due to the Earth axis precession, stellar proper motions and other factors. Extragalactic frames of the ICRF system are mostly quasars, radio galaxies, blazars and Seyfert galaxies i.e. different types of the active galaxy nuclei (AGN). Active galaxy nuclei are characterized by processes with significant. Such processes quite often are followed by X-ray emission generation. The purpose of this work is to consider X-ray emission of ICRF sources and features of their possible proper motions. Among 295 selected reference frames of the system we identified 54 X-ray sources which were observed by space observatory XMM Newton and noticed rapid variability of the blazars 2E 2673 (W Com) and 2E 1802 which enables to conclude that they have some very active processes in the sources centers. With regards to the future more detailed analysis we beleive that evidences of the objects proper motion could be found in their spectra. Based on the constructed luminosity and spectral graphs we could conclude that apart from above mentioned AGNs rest 52 objects do not show veriability and special attention should be paid to blazars within ICRF system development and use. Major part of the X-ray sources between the reference frames are stable.

description: Padé approximants to truncated post-Newtonian neutron star models are constructed. The Padé models converge faster to the general relativistic (GR) solution than the truncated post-Newtonian ones. The evolution of initial data using the Padé models approximates better the evolution of full GR initial data than the truncated Taylor models. In the absence of full GR initial data (e.g., for neutron star binaries or black hole binary systems), Padé initial data could be a better option than the straightforward truncated post-Newtonian (Taylor) initial data.

description: Using the formalism of information theory, we analyze the mechanism of information transduction in a simple one-step signaling cascade S$\rightarrow$X representing the gene regulatory network. Approximating the signaling channel to be Gaussian, we describe the dynamics using Langevin equations. Upon discretization, we calculate the associated second moments for linear and nonlinear regulation of the output by the input, which follows the birth-death process. While mutual information between the input and the output characterizes the channel capacity, the Fano factor of the output gives a clear idea of how internal and external fluctuations assemble at the output level. To quantify the contribution of the present state of the input to predict the future output, transfer entropy is computed. We find that higher amount of transfer entropy is accompanied by the greater magnitude of external fluctuations (quantified by the Fano factor of the output) propagation from the input to the output. We notice that low input population characterized by the number of signaling molecules S, which fluctuates in a relatively slower fashion compared to its downstream (target) species X, is maximally able to predict (as quantified by transfer entropy) the future state of the output. Our computations also reveal that with increased linear nature of the input-output interaction, all three metrics of mutual information, Fano factor and, transfer entropy achieve relatively larger magnitudes.

description: Destruction of the vortex lattice by random point pinning is considered as a mechanism of the ``second peak'' transition observed experimentally in weakly coupled layered high temperature superconductors. The transition field separating the topologically ordered quasilattice from the amorphous vortex configuration is strongly influenced by the layered structure and by the nonlocal nature of the vortex tilt energy due to the magnetic interlayer coupling. We found three different regimes of transition depending on the relative strength of the Josephson and magnetic couplings. The regimes can be distinguished by the dependence of the transition field

description: Work in time-domain astronomy necessitates robust, automated data processing pipelines that operate in real time. We present the BANZAI pipeline which processes the thousands of science images produced across the Las Cumbres Observatory Global Telescope (LCOGT) network of robotic telescopes each night. BANZAI is designed to perform near real-time preview and end-of-night final processing for four types of optical CCD imagers on the three LCOGT telescope classes. It performs instrumental signature removal (bad pixel masking, bias and dark removal, flat-field correction), astrometric fitting and source catalog extraction. We discuss the design considerations for BANZAI, including testing, performance, and extensibility. BANZAI is integrated into the observatory infrastructure and fulfills two critical functions: (1) real-time data processing that delivers data to users quickly and (2) derive metrics from those data products to monitor the health of the telescope network. In the era of time-domain astronomy, to get from these observations to scientific results, we must be able to automatically reduce data with minimal human interaction, but still have insight into the data stream for quality control.

description: The recently proposed technique to regularize the divergences of the gravitational action on non-compact space by adding boundary counterterms is studied. We propose prescription for constructing the boundary counterterms which are polynomial in the boundary curvature. This prescription is efficient for both asymptotically Anti-de Sitter and asymptotically flat spaces. Being mostly interested in the asymptotically flat case we demonstrate how our procedure works for known examples of non-compact spaces: Eguchi-Hanson metric, Kerr-Newman metric, Taub-NUT and Taub-bolt metrics and others. Analyzing the regularization procedure when boundary is not round sphere we observe that our counterterm helps to cancel large $r$ divergence of the action in the zero and first orders in small deviations of the geometry of the boundary from that of the round sphere. In order to cancel the divergence in the second order in deviations a new quadratic in boundary curvature counterterm is introduced. We argue that cancelation of the divergence for finite deviations possibly requires infinite series of (higher order in the boundary curvature) boundary counterterms.

description: The possibility of subcritical behaviour in the geostrophic turbulence regime of rapidly rotating thermally driven convection is explored. In this regime a non-local inverse energy transfer may compete with the more traditional and local direct cascade. We show that, even for control parameters for which no inverse cascade has previously been observed, a subcritical transition towards a large-scale vortex state can occur when the system is initialized with a vortex dipole of finite amplitude. This new example of bistability in a turbulent flow, which may not be specific to rotating convection, opens up new avenues for studying energy transfer in strongly anisotropic three-dimensional flows.

Quantitative orbital angular momentum measurement of perfect vortex beams

description: Perfect (optical) vortices (PVs) have the mooted ability to encode orbital angular momentum (OAM) onto the field within a well-defined annular ring. Although this makes the near-field radial profile independent of OAM, the far-field radial profile nevertheless scales with OAM, forming a Bessel structure. A consequence of this is that quantitative measurement of PVs by modal decomposition has been thought to be unviable. Here, we show that the OAM content of a PV can be measured quantitatively, including superpositions of OAM within one perfect vortex. We outline the theory and confirm it by experiment with holograms written to spatial light modulators, highlighting the care required for accurate decomposition of the OAM content. Our work will be of interest to the large community who seek to use such structured light fields in various applications, including optical trapping and tweezing, and optical communication.

description: Irrigation accounts for approximately 70 % of global freshwater withdrawals, significantly impacting the water cycle through reduced streamflow and groundwater tables and increased evapotranspiration. Accurate long-term estimates of irrigation water use (IWU) are essential for improving climate model simulations. However, in situ irrigation data are extremely rare on a global scale, and statistical surveys, as well as irrigation simulated by models, are too uncertain to provide reliable estimates. Satellite-derived soil moisture (SM) data offer a promising alternative approach for monitoring long-term IWU globally.This thesis builds on the Soil Moisture (SM) Delta method, which estimates IWU by calculating the differences between satellite and modeled SM data. The approach is based on the fact that satellite-based SM theoretically contains an irrigation signal, whereas model-based SM lacks such a signal if irrigation is not modeled. The methodology is used to assess the ability of five satellite-based SM products to retrieve long-term irrigation estimates. 15-year IWU datasets have been produced over the Ebro Basin (86,000 km2) and the Murray-Darling Basin (1,000,000 km2) using coarse-scale (0.25°) SM data, and validated against in situ IWU data from an irrigation district in the Ebro Basin and four irrigation districts in the Murray-Darling Basin.Validation of the IWU estimates against in situ IWU data from the irrigation district in the Ebro Basin showed a significant correlation when using the ESA CCI COMBINED product (R=0.75), which also yielded the lowest Root Mean Square Deviation (RMSD=22.84 mm/month), showing the best performance over this basin. In the Murray-Darling Basin, validation results varied among the four irrigation districts, with ESA CCI ACTIVE performing best in three irrigation districts (R=0.40, RMSD=21.84, bias=4.01 mm/month on average) and ESA CCI PASSIVE in one district (R=0.64, RMSD=19.70 mm/month, bias=0.83 mm/month). In terms of overall performance, ESA CCI COMBINED proved to be the most reliable product with a good balance between low RMSD (22.01 mm/month on average) and the highest correlation (R=0.45 on average) in the four irrigation districts.All products show an underestimation of IWU in the Ebro Basin, which could be improved by including evapotranspiration in the algorithm. Furthermore, when compared with studies obtaining high-resolution IWU estimates, our coarse-resolution method performed comparably well in the Ebro Basin. These large-scale, long-term IWU datasets are an important step towards better accounting for the impacts of irrigation in climatic and hydrological modeling and can improve water resource management.

description: A qualitative literature review is utilised to highlight the shift to learner-centred methodologies in vocational education and training and profile the applications of trauma informed approaches to address learner needs and increase learner inclusion and chances of success. The discussion begins by identifying the need for trauma informed approaches in delivery related to technical and further education and workplace settings. The characteristics of trauma informed training environments are then considered such that the professional development needs of trainers can be established. The paper presents a model competency statement that can be used to develop training programs for trainers working in vocational education and training. The model competency statement, entitled ‘Utilise trauma informed training practices’, can be used as a basis for development of accredited programs, nationally recognised units of competence, professional development programs or any other program related to implementation of trauma informed approaches in an adult training setting.
