description: Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht die häusliche Gewalt im Alter sowie Mechanismen, die dazu führen, dass diese Gewalt oft toleriert und verharmlost wird. Ausserdem wird in der Forschung die Rolle der Sozialen Arbeit in dieser Thematik geklärt. Dabei werden die Themen Alter und Gewalt vertieft erläutert, um den Lesenden ein umfassendes Bild von der Situation älterer gewaltbetroffener Menschen zu vermitteln. Die rechtlichen Bestimmungen, die die Situation dieser Gruppe beeinflussen, werden ebenfalls behandelt.
Um die Lebenssituation von gewaltbetroffenen älteren Menschen zu erfassen, wurde ein biografisch-narratives Interview geführt. Zusätzlich wurden Leitfadeninterviews mit Fachpersonen durchgeführt, um deren Perspektive und Interventionsmöglichkeiten zu beleuchten. Die Analyse der Interviews ergab zahlreiche Herausforderungen im Bereich häusliche Gewalt im Alter. Als besonders problematisch stellte sich die Tabuisierung der Thematik heraus, da dadurch die Dunkelziffer der Betroffenen hoch ist. Eine zentrale Erkenntnis ist das Potential der Entlastung von pflegenden Angehörigen. Sie führt zu mehreren schützenden Faktoren gegen häusliche Gewalt im Alter.
Diese Arbeit richtet sich an Fachpersonen der Sozialen Arbeit sowie an Interessierte aus verwandten Disziplinen. Sie soll unter anderem dazu beitragen, die Tabuisierung abzubauen und das Bewusstsein für die Herausforderungen älterer gewaltbetroffener Menschen zu schärfen.

description: We propose a novel THz material analysis approach which provides highly accurate material parameters and can be used for industrial quality control. The method treats the inspected material within its environment locally as a stratified system and describes the light-matter interaction of each layer in a realistic way. The approach is illustrated in the time-domain and frequency-domain for two potential fields of implementation of THz technology: quality control of (coated) paper sheets and car paint multilayers, both measured in humid air.

description: The present study is aimed to evaluate in vitro thrombolytic activity and antioxidant activity of Hibiscus tiliaceus L. Chemical characterization of bioactive extract was determined by using GC-MS analysis. The thrombolytic potential was performed by the clot lysis method. Antioxidant activity was evaluated by an in vitro assay involving DPPH radical scavenging and hydrogen peroxide scavenging assay. Blood Clots when treated with sterile distilled water, petroleum ether extract, methanol extract and streptokinase showed 7.983 ± 2.197%, 34.10 ± 8.436%, 14.41 ± 5.276 and 62.21 ± 5.519 clot lysis, respectively. Petroleum ether extract shows significant activity when compared with control (P ≤ 0.05). All extracts showed concentration dependent free radical scavenging activity. Bioactive extract of H. tiliaceus contained 23 phytoconstituents as revealed by GC-MS study. The significant thrombolytic activity is exhibited due to presence of sterols as reveled by GC-MS analysis. Further study required to confirm in vivo clot lysis properties.

description: For a given elliptic curve $E$ over a finite local ring, we denote by $E^{\infty}$ its subgroup at infinity. Every point $P \in E^{\infty}$ can be described solely in terms of its $x$-coordinate $P_x$, which can be therefore used to parameterize all its multiples $nP$. We refer to the coefficient of $(P_x)^i$ in the parameterization of $(nP)_x$ as the $i$-th multiplication polynomial. We show that this coefficient is a degree-$i$ rational polynomial without a constant term in $n$. We also prove that no primes greater than $i$ may appear in the denominators of its terms. As a consequence, for every finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ and any $k\in\mathbb{N}^*$, we prescribe the group structure of a generic elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{F}_q[X]/(X^k)$, and we show that their ECDLP on $E^{\infty}$ may be efficiently solved.

description: UV and optical photometry of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) at low redshift have revealed the existence of two distinct color groups, NUV-red and NUV-blue events. The color curves differ primarily by an offset, with the NUV-blue u- color curves bluer than the NUV-red curves by 0.4 mag. For a sample of 23 low-z SNe~Ia observed with Swift, the NUV-red group dominates by a ratio of 2:1. We compare rest-frame UV/optical spectrophotometry of intermediate and high-z SNe Ia with UVOT photometry and HST spectrophotometry of low-z SNe Ia, finding that the same two color groups exist at higher-z, but with the NUV-blue events as the dominant group. Within each red/blue group, we do not detect any offset in color for different redshifts, providing insight into how SN~Ia UV emission evolves with redshift. Through spectral comparisons of SNe~Ia with similar peak widths and phase, we explore the wavelength range that produces the UV/OPT color differences. We show that the ejecta velocity of NUV-red SNe is larger than that of NUV-blue objects by roughly 12% on average. This velocity difference can explain some of the UV/optical color difference, but differences in the strengths of spectral features seen in meanspectra require additional explanation. Because of the different b-v colors for these groups, NUV-red SNe will have their extinction underestimated using common techniques. This, in turn, leads to under-estimation of the optical luminosity of the NUV-blue SNe~Ia, in particular, for the high-redshift cosmological sample. Not accounting for this effect should thus produce a distance bias that increases with redshift and could significantly bias measurements of cosmological parameters.

description: Da alcuni anni un gruppo di ricerca afferente all’Università di Pisa studia la popolazione e i paesaggi della Lunigiana attraverso un progetto articolato in più fasi. In questo contributo sono presentati i primi due sotto-progetti: TraMonti, dispiegato in Val di Vara (SP) e ormai terminato, e Casola nella Valle Aulella (MS), in via di conclusione. Dopo aver illustrato gli elementi caratterizzanti e le problematiche incontrate in questi sotto-progetti, sono introdotte alcune considerazioni generali sulle problematiche della ricerca archeologica nelle aree montane e in relazione alle scelte operate nell’impiego di un WebGIS per la gestione dei dati. Vengono poi avanzate delle riflessioni sul significato di una storia/archeologia pubblica nelle società colpite da calamità naturali. Nelle osservazioni conclusive si evidenzia la necessità di un approccio multidisciplinare allo studio delle aree montane e la difficoltà di lavorare in zone che ancora soffrono di marginalità e di depopolamento. Tuttavia, si ricorda il grande interesse scientifico di questo tipo di studi e la possibilità che essi possano influenzare la società contemporanea.
description: Since a few years a research group at the University of Pisa studies the population and the landscapes of the Lunigiana through a project divided into several phases. In this paper we present the first two sub-projects: TraMonti, deployed in the Vara Valley (SP) and now closed, and Casola in the Aulella Valley (MS), now reaching its conclusions. Some general considerations follow the outline of the main features and of the problems we faced. They concern the archaeological research in mountain areas and the choices made in the use of a web GIS for the management of the collected data. Some insights about the meaning of a public history/archaeology in societies affected by natural disasters are also given. In the concluding remarks we argue for the need of a true multidisciplinary approach in the study of mountain areas and outline the difficulty of working on areas that still suffer from marginalization and sparse population. Nonetheless, it is recalled the great scientific interest in this type of studies and the possibility that they can affect contemporary society.

description: Feverfew is an herb used to treat different diseases such as migraine headaches. Due to the economic aspect of its metabolites in the pharmaceutical industry, establishing new approaches to produce the compounds on a large scale is essential. To investigate the effects of stimulators on parthenolide synthesis, feverfew plants were treated with different elicitors, including methyl jasmonate, salicylic acid, NaCl, aluminum oxide, and magnesium aluminate spinel nanoparticles. The expression of genes, E-beta-caryophyllene synthase, Germacrene A synthase, and Costunolide Synthase in the metabolite biosynthesis pathway was examined using qRT-PCR. In addition, parthenolide content, total flavonoids, and polyphenols antioxidant activity were evaluated by HPLC and spectrophotometry. Our results indicated that methyl jasmonate and salicylic acid were more effective on the final concentration of parthenolide, but magnesium aluminate spinel affected the genes' expression, positively. The results show that the elicitors can be used to increase the metabolite in the plant, commercially.

description: This study evaluated the antidepressant-like effects of a methanol extract of Leonotis nepetifolia in behavioural tests in mice. Our results showed that a single administration of the extract significantly reduced immobility behaviour in the tail suspension test, while three administrations were necessary to diminish immobility behaviour in the forced swimming test. A daily dose of the extract for 28 days improved body weight gain and significantly reduced corticosterone levels of mice exposed to chronic unpredictable mild stress. Metabolic profiling of the extract revealed that nepetaefolin, methoxynepataefolin, and 7-O-β-glucoside luteolin were the main products. Acute and repeated administration of the extract produced antidepressant-like effects in animals subjected to chronic stress. Our results suggest the hypothalamus-hypophysis-adrenal axis participates in the antidepressant actions of the extract. These results show that alterations in behaviour elicited by stress can be prevented with L. nepetifolia treatment.

description: The exceptional interest in improving the limitations of data storage, molecular electronics, and optoelectronics has promoted the development of an ever increasing number of techniques used to pattern polymers at micro and nanoscale. Most of them rely on Atomic Force Microscopy to thermally or electrostatically induce mass transport, thereby creating topographic features. Here we show that the mechanical interaction of the tip of the Atomic Force Microscope with the surface of a class of conjugate polymers produces a local increase of molecular disorder, inducing a localized lowering of the semiconductor conductivity, not associated to detectable modifications in the surface topography. This phenomenon allows for the swift production of low conductivity patterns on the polymer surface at an unprecedented speed exceeding 20 $μm s^{-1}$; paths have a resolution in the order of the tip size (20 nm) and are detected by a Conducting-Atomic Force Microscopy tip in the conductivity maps.

description: Chemical investigation of the MeOH extract of the leaves of Scyphocephalium mannii (Benth. & Hook.f.) Warb. (Myristicaceae) led to the isolation and characterization of one new metabolite (+)-(7’S, 8S, 8’S)-4,4’-dihydroxy-3,3’,5,5’-tetramethoxy-2,7’-cyclolignan (1) along with five known compounds. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic means, including 1 D and 2 D NMR, HRESI-MS and by comparison with published data. The absolute configuration of compound 1 was determined by single-crystal X-RAY diffraction. Compound 1 showed moderate antifungal activity against Cryptococcus neoformans with respective MIC and MMC values of 64 and 256 µg/mL.

description: We investigate the relaxation of long-tailed distributions under stochastic dynamics that do not support such tails. Linear relaxation is found to be a borderline case in which long tails are exponentially suppressed in time but not eliminated. Relaxation stronger than linear suppresses long tails immediately, but may lead to strong transient peaks in the probability distribution. A delta function initial distribution under stronger than linear decay displays not one but two different regimes of diffusive spreading.
The Occurrence Rate of Terrestrial Planets Orbiting Nearby Mid-to-late M Dwarfs from TESS Sectors 1-42

description: We present an analysis of a volume-complete sample of 363 mid-to-late M dwarfs within 15 pc of the Sun with masses between 0.1 and 0.3 M$_\odot$ observed by TESS within Observation Sectors 1 to 42. The median mass of the stars in this sample is 0.17 M$_\odot$. We search the TESS 2-minute cadence light curves for transiting planets with orbital periods below 7 days using a modified Box-Least Squares (BLS) algorithm and recover all 6 known planets within the sample as well as a likely planet candidate orbiting LHS 475 (TESS Object of Interest 910.01). Each of these planets is consistent with a terrestrial composition, with planet radii ranging from 0.91 R$_\oplus$ to 1.31 R$_\oplus$. In addition, we perform a transit injection and recovery analysis for each of the 363 stars to characterize the transit detection sensitivity as a function of planet radius, insolation, and orbital period. We obtain a cumulative occurrence rate of $0.61^{+0.24}_{-0.19}$ terrestrial planets per M dwarf with radii above 0.5 R$_\oplus$ and orbital periods between 0.4-7 days. We find that for comparable insolations, planets larger than 1.5 R$_\oplus$ (sub-Neptunes and water worlds) are significantly less abundant around mid-to-late M dwarfs compared to earlier-type stars, while the occurrence rate of terrestrial planets is comparable to that of more massive M dwarfs. We estimate that overall, terrestrials outnumber sub-Neptunes around mid-to-late M dwarfs at a ratio of 14 to 1, in contrast to GK dwarfs where they are roughly equinumerous. We place a $1σ$ upper limit of 0.07 planets larger than 1.5 R$_\oplus$ per mid-to-late M dwarf, within the orbital period range of 0.5-7 days. We find evidence for a downturn in occurrence rates for planet radii below 0.9 R$_\oplus$, suggesting that Earth-sized and larger terrestrials may be more common around mid-to-late M dwarfs.

description: Rotation is a key parameter in the evolution of massive stars, affecting their evolution, chemical yields, ionizing photon budget, and final fate. We determined the projected rotational velocity, $v_e\sin i$, of $\sim$330 O-type objects, i.e. $\sim$210 spectroscopic single stars and $\sim$110 primaries in binary systems, in the Tarantula nebula or 30 Doradus (30\,Dor) region. The observations were taken using VLT/FLAMES and constitute the largest homogeneous dataset of multi-epoch spectroscopy of O-type stars currently available. The most distinctive feature of the $v_e\sin i$ distributions of the presumed-single stars and primaries in 30 Dor is a low-velocity peak at around 100\,$\rm{km s^{-1}}$. Stellar winds are not expected to have spun-down the bulk of the stars significantly since their arrival on the main sequence and therefore the peak in the single star sample is likely to represent the outcome of the formation process. Whereas the spin distribution of presumed-single stars shows a well developed tail of stars rotating more rapidly than 300\,$\rm{km s^{-1}}$, the sample of primaries does not feature such a high-velocity tail. The tail of the presumed-single star distribution is attributed for the most part -- and could potentially be completely due -- to spun-up binary products that appear as single stars or that have merged. This would be consistent with the lack of such post-interaction products in the binary sample, that is expected to be dominated by pre-interaction systems. The peak in this distribution is broader and is shifted toward somewhat higher spin rates compared to the distribution of presumed-single stars. Systems displaying large radial velocity variations, typical for short period systems, appear mostly responsible for these differences.

description: Finding saddle points of dynamical systems is an important problem in practical applications such as the study of rare events of molecular systems. Gentlest ascent dynamics (GAD) is one of a number of algorithms in existence that attempt to find saddle points in dynamical systems. It works by deriving a new dynamical system in which saddle points of the original system become stable equilibria. GAD has been recently generalized to the study of dynamical systems on manifolds (differential algebraic equations) described by equality constraints and given in an extrinsic formulation. In this paper, we present an extension of GAD to manifolds defined by point-clouds, formulated using the intrinsic viewpoint. These point-clouds are adaptively sampled during an iterative process that drives the system from the initial conformation (typically in the neighborhood of a stable equilibrium) to a saddle point. Our method requires the reactant (initial conformation), does not require the explicit constraint equations to be specified, and is purely data-driven.

description: Four new triterpenoid saponins (gouaniasides VII–IX [1–3] and joazeiroside C [4]) and one known triterpenoid (5) were isolated from the aerial parts of Gouania leptostachya DC. (Rhamnaceae). Their structures were elucidated via one-dimensional and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, high-resolution electrospray ionisation–mass spectrometry, and analyses of hydrolytic cleavage results. The anti-inflammatory potential of compounds 1–3 was evaluated according to their ability to inhibit the production of nitric oxide (NO) by RAW 264.7 macrophages. All compounds at noncytotoxic concentrations significantly inhibited NO production by macrophages in a concentration-dependent manner.

description: A recently developed technique known as analogue transformation acoustics has allowed the extension of the transformational paradigm to general spacetime transformations under which the acoustic equations are not form invariant. In this paper, we review the fundamentals of analogue transformation acoustics and show how this technique can be applied to build a device that increases the density of events within a given spacetime region by simultaneously compressing space and time.

description: Calea pinnatifida (R. Br.) Less. is a plant of Brazilian folk medicine. We evaluated the influence of environmental factors on the chemical profile of C. pinnatifida collected during the winter season. C. pinnatifida leaves, alongside soil samples, were collected from two sites of different altitude. Plant samples were sequentially extracted, while soil samples were subject to compositional analysis. Plant extracts were compared using HPTLC-UV, using chemometric analyses to compare samplings harvested at both altitudes. Two marker metabolites, calein A (1) and acetylportentol (2), were isolated from samples collected at the respective altitudes. The differing metabolic profiles observed may be a result of the influence of environmental factors.
Multi-Level Design of Process-Oriented Enterprise Information Systems

Year: 2022

description: This paper presents prototypical multi-level models of two uses cases. They comprise models of business processes and of models that represent the context required to execute a business process. On the one hand, the context consists of the organizational units that are responsible for the execution of processes. They are represented by a model of organizational structures. On the other hand, the context includes the artifacts that are needed or manipulated by processes. The models serve to demonstrate the specific power of multi-level modeling. First, they integrate models on higher levels, which correspond to domain-specific modeling languages, with those on lower levels. In addition, models are supplemented with objects on L0 to demonstrate how these can be integrated. The models are executable without the need to generate code, since models and corresponding program code share the same representation, thus demonstrating the possibility of advanced application system architectures, which allow users to navigate a comprehensive representation of the system they work with at runtime. The presentation of the models is supplemented with a general evaluation of multi-level concepts. The design of the models was inspired by the EMISA process challenge. Therefore, they are evaluated against the requirements defined with the challenge. In addition, a challenge is discussed that goes beyond the challenge, that is, the design of multi-level models of behavior.

description: Talk presented to Brainhack Donostia, November 2020. Abstract: In this talk I will lay the groundwork for what inclusivity is, and why good open and reproducible research should be designed with inclusivity in mind. I will invite you to think about the impact of poor inclusivity practices on individual researchers who are attempting to engage with your work, as well as specific impacts on traditionally excluded groups. We will close with a discussion about what we can do as individuals to improve the inclusivity In our own projects and shared resources, and efforts we can be supporting as a community of open researchers.
Elucidation of crystal structures and structural changes using X-ray powder diffraction

description: In the process of understanding the properties and behaviour of a compound, and designing improved materials, probing the atomic-level structure is a decisive step. Single crystal X-ray diffraction, a widespread, non-destructive technique, can certainly satisfy this requirement. However, suitable single crystals cannot always be obtained, especially in cases where compounds are synthesised in situ or investigated while they are subjected to external stimuli that can compromise the integrity of the crystal. In these cases, X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) can be used. This method allows for analysis of the bulk material, regardless of the degree of the structural order in the compound (crystalline or amorphous), and delivers information about the crystal structure, local structure, microstructure, and phase composition. In the present PhD thesis, several compounds belonging to different classes of materials such as organic molecules, coordination compounds, inorganic compounds, and polymers have been analyzed with the main aim of extracting structural details and determining structural changes. XRPD was used as the main technique, and complementary analyses such as thermal analysis (TGA, DTA, DSC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and vibrational spectroscopy (IR) supported the results. ..

description: Nel processo di comprensione delle proprietà e del comportamento di un composto e della progettazione di materiali sempre più performanti, lo studio della struttura a livello atomico è un punto determinante. La diffrazione di raggi X su cristallo singolo, una diffusa tecnica non distruttiva, può certamente soddisfare questi requisiti. Tuttavia, cristalli singoli adatti a questa tecnica non possono sempre essere ottenuti, specialmente in casi dove i composti sono sintetizzati in situ o investigati mentre sono sottoposti a stimoli esterni che ne possono compromettere l’integrità. In questi casi, la diffrazione di raggi X su polveri può essere usata. Questo metodo consente di analizzare l’intero campione a prescindere dal grado di ordine strutturale del composto (cristallino o amorfo), e fornisce informazioni sulla struttura cristallina, la struttura locale, la microstruttura e la composizione delle fasi. Nella presente tesi di dottorato, molti compositi appartenenti a diverse classi di materiali, come molecole organiche, composti di coordinazione, composti inorganici e polimeri sono stati analizzati con lo scopo di ottenere dettagli strutturali e determinare cambi strutturali. La diffrazione di raggi X su polveri è stata usata come tecnica principale mentre analisi complementari come analisi termiche (TGA, DTA, DSC), microscopia elettronica a scansione (SEM) e spettroscopia vibrazionale (IR) hanno supportato i risultati. ..

description: Let $u_k$ be a Lucas sequence. A standard technique for determining the perfect powers in the sequence $u_k$ combines bounds coming from linear forms in logarithms with local information obtained via Frey curves and modularity. The key to this approach is the fact that the equation $u_k=x^n$ can be translated into a ternary equation of the form $a y^2=b x^{2n}+c$ (with $a$, $b$, $c \in \mathbb{Z}$) for which Frey curves are available. In this paper we consider shifted powers in Lucas sequences, and consequently equations of the form $u_k=x^n+c$ which do not typically correspond to ternary equations with rational unknowns. However, they do, under certain hypotheses, lead to ternary equations with unknowns in totally real fields, allowing us to employ Frey curves over those fields instead of Frey curves defined over $\mathbb{Q}$. We illustrate this approach by showing that the quaternary Diophantine equation $x^{2n} \pm 6 x^n+1=8 y^2$ has no solutions in positive integers $x$, $y$, $n$ with $x$, $n>1$.
