VISSI D’ARTE VISSI D’AMOR. L’ITALIANO DEL MELODRAMMA. RIFLESSIONI PER UNA DIDATTICA L2 A CANTANTI D’OPERA
Creators: name: Manzelli, Manuela
Publisher: name: Italiano LinguaDue
Year: 2011

description: Nonostante in questi ultimi decenni le motivazioni e le tipologie di apprendenti di italiano come lingua straniera siano profondamente cambiate rispetto al passato, l’italiano della musica rappresenta ancora un forte stimolo per la diffusione e l’apprendimento della nostra lingua, con il rischio, però, che essa venga  percepita secondo un modello insolito e innaturale a causa della particolare natura del linguaggio dei libretti d’opera.

Seguendo le tappe della storia del genere melodrammatico e con lo scopo di fornire un panorama d’insieme o uno spunto di riflessione per la didassi dell’italiano in un  contesto particolare come questo, l’articolo propone una breve disamina dei tratti che caratterizzano la lingua italiana della librettistica, sia quelli più lontani dalla lingua d’uso corrente, sia quelli che conservano una patina più colloquiale.

Vissi d’arte vissi d’amor. Italian language and melodrama. Reflections on L2 didactics for opera singers.

The last few decades have seen different types of students and reasons why people learn Italian as a foreign language. Despite this, music still has a significant role in the spread of Italian, but due to the particular language used in the libretti, the risk is that students of Italian perceive the language based on an unnatural and unusual model.

This article follows the stages of the “melodramatic” music genre. Its purpose is to give a general idea or a thought provoking method for Italian language teaching in a particular context. It presents a brief analysis of typical solutions found in “libretti”, at times very far away from common, spoken language as well as more colloquial examples.

description: We derive universal relations for the radio-frequency (rf) spectroscopy of a two-dimensional Fermi gas consisting of two spin states with a resonant S-wave interaction. The rf transition rate has a high-frequency tail that is proportional to the contact and displays logarithmic scaling violations, decreasing asymptotically like $1/(ω^2 \ln^2 ω)$. Its coefficient is proportional to $\ln^2(a_{2D}'/a_{2D})$, where $a_{2D}$ and $a_{2D}'$ are the 2-dimensional scattering lengths associated with initial-state and final-state interactions. The clock shift is proportional to the contact and to $\ln(a_{2D}'/a_{2D})$. If $|\ln(a_{2D}'/a_{2D})| \gg 1$, the clock shift arises as a cancellation between much larger contributions proportional to $\ln^2(a_{2D}'/a_{2D})$ from bound-bound and bound-free rf transitions.

description: Chinese ancient sage Laozi said that everything comes from `nothing'. Einstein believes the principle of nature is simple. Quantum physics proves that the world is discrete. And computer science takes continuous systems as discrete ones. This report is devoted to deriving a number of discrete models, including well-known integrable systems such as the KdV, KP, Toda, BKP, CKP, and special Viallet equations, from `nothing' via simple principles. It is conjectured that the discrete models generated from nothing may be integrable because they are identities of simple algebra, model-independent nonlinear superpositions of a trivial integrable system (Riccati equation), index homogeneous decompositions of the simplest geometric theorem (the angle bisector theorem), as well as the Möbious transformation invariants.

description: Drell-Yan production in the forward region at the Large Hadron Collider is sensitive to multiple radiation of QCD partons not collinearly ordered, emitted over large rapidity intervals. We propose a method to take account of these radiative contributions via a factorization formula which depends on the unintegrated, or transverse momentum dependent, splitting function associated with the evolution of the initial-state sea quark distribution. We analyze this formula numerically, and point out kinematic effects from the initial-state transverse momentum on the vector boson spectrum.

The generic cusp is isomorphic to ${\bf{X}}\times ]1,+\infty [$ with metric $ds^2=(h+dy^2)/y^{2δ}.$ {\bf{X}} is a compact manifold with nonzero first Betti number equipped with the metric $h.$ For a one-form $A$ on {\bf{M}} such that in each cusp $A$ is a non exact one-form on the boundary at infinity, we prove that the magnetic Laplacian $-Δ_A=(id+A)^\star (id+A)$ satisfies the Weyl asymptotic formula with sharp remainder. We deduce an upper bound for the counting function of the embedded eigenvalues of the Laplace-Beltrami operator $-Δ=-Δ_0.$

description: We analyze the temperature dependence of CP violation effects in the Standard Model by determining the effective action of its bosonic fields, obtained after integrating out the fermions from the theory and performing a covariant gradient expansion. We find non-vanishing CP violating terms starting at the sixth order of the expansion, albeit only in the C odd/P even sector, with coefficients that depend on quark masses, CKM matrix elements, temperature and the magnitude of the Higgs field. The CP violating effects are observed to decrease rapidly with temperature, which has important implications for the generation of a matter-antimatter asymmetry in the early Universe. Our results suggest that the cold electroweak baryogenesis scenario may be viable within the Standard Model, provided the electroweak transition temperature is at most of order 1 GeV.

description: B2 0954+25A, detected by the {\it Fermi} satellite, is a blazar with interesting observational properties: it has been observed to transit from a jet dominated to a disk dominated state; its radio spectrum appears flat at all observing frequencies (down to 74 MHz); optically, the H$β$ line profile is asymmetric. The flatness of radio spectrum suggests that the isotropic emission from radio lobes is very weak, despite the large size of its jet ($\gtrsim$ 500 kpc). Its broad--band spectral energy distribution is surprisingly similar to that of the prototypical $γ$--ray, radio loud, Narrow Line Seyfert 1 ($γ$--NLS1) galaxy PMN J0948+0022. In this work we revisit the mass estimates of B2 0954+25A considering only the symmetric component of the H$β$ line and find (1--3) $\times 10^8$ M$_{\sun}$. In light of our composite analysis, we propose to classify the source as a transition object between the class of Flat Spectrum Radio Quasar and $γ$--ray, radio loud NLS1. A comparison with two members of each class (3C 273 and PMN J0948+0022) is discussed.

description: Phase behaviour of the Stockmayer fluid is studied with a method similar to the Monte-Carlo annealing scheme.

We exhibit a phase diagram based on the behaviour of the order parameter in the density region 0.1 \leq ρ\ast \leq 0.32. Specifically, we observe and analyse a second order locally disordered fluid \rightarrow locally oriented fluid phase transition.

FI-modules and stability for representations of symmetric groups

description: In this paper we introduce and develop the theory of FI-modules. We apply this theory to obtain new theorems about: - the cohomology of the configuration space of n distinct ordered points on an arbitrary (connected, oriented) manifold - the diagonal coinvariant algebra on r sets of n variables - the cohomology and tautological ring of the moduli space of n-pointed curves - the space of polynomials on rank varieties of n x n matrices - the subalgebra of the cohomology of the genus n Torelli group generated by H^1 and more. The symmetric group S_n acts on each of these vector spaces. In most cases almost nothing is known about the characters of these representations, or even their dimensions. We prove that in each fixed degree the character is given, for n large enough, by a polynomial in the cycle-counting functions that is independent of n. In particular, the dimension is eventually a polynomial in n. In this framework, representation stability (in the sense of Church-Farb) for a sequence of S_n-representations is converted to a finite generation property for a single FI-module.

Ontogeny and genetic correlates of the TLR mediated pediatric innate immune response
Creators: name: Corbett, Nathan Patrick
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: In early life, humans are particularly vulnerable to morbidity and mortality due to infectious disease. A key system that is critical to both early response to pathogens, and also to the success or failure of a vaccine to induce protective immunity is the innate immune system. It is our working hypothesis that changes in the developing immune system mediate changes in both vaccine response and infectious morbidity and mortality. This thesis presents published and unpublished work wherein we analyze the innate immune response of a defined population of newborns from the greater Vancouver area in British Columbia, Canada. In this work, we set out to define the development of early response by the human infant immune system to molecular danger signals known as pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPS) by the well-defined Toll-Like Receptor (TLR) system expressed by peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). In addition, we have correlated this response with the occurrence of pertinent genetic variance between individuals, in the hope of identifying immune modulating variants in situ. Such variants will provide the basis for later testing of our hypothesis that genetic variance in early life innate immune response contributes to the significant variability in morbidity and mortality.

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We analyze the Uhlmann fidelity of a pair of $n$-mode Gaussian states of the quantum radiation field. This quantity is shown to be the product of an exponential function depending on the relative average displacement and a factor fully determined by the symplectic spectrum of the covariance matrix of a specific Gaussian state. However, it is difficult to handle our general formula unless the Gaussian states commute or at least one of them is pure. On the contrary, in the simplest cases $n=1$ and $n=2$, it leads to explicit analytic formulae. Our main result is a calculable expression of the fidelity of two arbitrary two-mode Gaussian states. This can be applied to build reliable measures of quantum correlations between modes in various branches of quantum physics.

Direct observation of quantum phonon fluctuations in a one dimensional Bose gas

description: We report the first direct observation of collective quantum fluctuations in a continuous field. Shot-to-shot atom number fluctuations in small sub-volumes of a weakly interacting ultracold atomic 1D cloud are studied using \textit{in situ} absorption imaging and statistical analysis of the density profiles. In the cloud centers, well in the \textit{quantum quasicondensate} regime, the ratio of chemical potential to thermal energy is $μ/ k_B T\simeq4$, and, owing to high resolution, up to 20% of the microscopically observed fluctuations are quantum phonons. Within a non-local analysis at variable observation length, we observe a clear deviation from a classical field prediction, which reveals the emergence of dominant quantum fluctuations at short length scales, as the thermodynamic limit breaks down.

Modeling of Al evaporation and Marangoni flow in Electron Beam Button Melting of Ti-6Al-4V
Creators: name: Zhang, Zhongkui
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: The Electron Beam Cold Hearth Remelting (EBCHR) process has emerged as a key process in producing high quality Ti-6Al-4V ingot and electrode as it is able to effectively consolidate both sponge and scrap material while removing undesired impurities and inclusions, such as Low Density Inclusions (LDIs) and High Density Inclusions (HDIs). However, the challenge of composition control arises in processing alloys such as Ti-6Al-4V where evaporative loss of elements with higher vapor pressure (Al in this case) cannot be ignored. Therefore, in order to cast a product of specified composition, a thorough understanding of the evaporation mechanism and melt flow conditions becomes crucial in process control and optimization. This research presents a comprehensive model of the melt pool produced during Electron Beam Button Melting (EBBM) which has been developed to serve as an intermediate step in the development of a comprehensive tool for analysis and optimization of the industrial EBCHR process. With proper geometry and boundary conditions, the EBBM model can be readily applied to an industrial EBCHR furnace to minimize costly experiments in optimizing process parameters. A thermal-fluid-compositional model has been developed that includes Al evaporation, thermal and compositional buoyancy, thermal and compositional Marangoni flow and flow attenuation in the mushy regime. Experiments on Ti-6Al-4V and CP titanium with a circular electron beam pattern were conducted in a laboratory scale EBBM furnace in order to study the evaporation process and fluid flow in the liquid pool. The data obtained from the experimental work was used to tune the thermal boundary conditions and validate the model predictions. The temperature, surface velocity, pool profile and concentration profile have been experimentally quantified and used for validation of the mathematical model.

This cheat sheet was developed for the workshop carried out on 24th of November 2023 on How to judge the quality of journals at Utrecht University, Netherlands. The workshop was given by Maria E. Constantin (Open Access Officer for the Faculty of Science), Andreas Franzke (Faculty of Science Library Liaison), and Nadine Jetten (Publishing Support Library).
How to use the predatory cheat sheet 
 The section "Indexation in Databases" consists of databases in which quality journals should be indexed. A trustworthy journal has an International Standard Serial Number (ISSN). In addition, it should be indexed in SCOPUS and/ or Web of Science. If the journal is Open Access, then it should be indexed in the Directory of Open Access Journals. You can find the checks that the databases do before indexing a journal on the back of the cheat sheet. 
The section "Red flags" consists of six practices common in predatory journals. 
The section "Orange flags "contains six practices that are of concern and point out questionable publishing practices but do not necessarily make the journal a predatory journal.

description: We consider variants of the Jaynes-Cummings-Hubbard model of lattice polaritons, taking into account next-nearest-neighbor, diagonal and long-range photon hopping in one and two dimensions. These models are relevant for potential experimental realizations of polariton Mott insulators based on trapped ions or microwave stripline resonators. We obtain the Mott-superfluid phase boundary and calculate excitation spectra in the Mott phase using numerical and analytical methods. Including the additional hopping terms leads to a larger Mott phase in the case of trapped ions, and to a smaller Mott phase in the case of stripline resonators, compared to the original model with nearest-neighbor hopping only. The critical hopping for the transition changes by up to about 50 percent in one dimension, and by up to about 20 percent in two dimensions. In contrast, the excitation spectra remain largely unaffected.

Estimates of relativistic electron and proton energy densities in starburst galactic nuclei from radio measurements
Creators: name: Persic, Massimo

Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)

description: The energy density of energetic protons, U_p, in several nearby starburst nuclei (SBNs) has been directly deduced from gamma-ray measurements of the radiative decay of neutral pions produced in interactions with ambient protons. Lack of sufficient sensitivity and spatial resolution makes this direct deduction unrealistic in the foreseeable future for even moderately distant SBNs. A more viable indirect method for determining U_p in star-forming galaxies is to use its theoretically based scaling to the energy density of energetic electrons, U_e, which can be directly deduced from radio synchrotron and possibly also nonthermal hard X-ray emission. In order to improve the quantitative basis and diagnostic power of this leptonic method we reformulate and clarify its main aspects. Doing so we obtain a basic expression for the ratio U_p/U_e in terms of the proton and electron masses and the power-law indices that characterize the particle spectral distributions in regions where the total particle energy density is at equipartition with that of the mean magnetic field. We also express the field strength and the particle energy density in the equipartition region in terms of the region's size, mean gas density, IR and radio fluxes, and distance from the observer, and determine values of U_p in a sample of nine nearby and local SBNs.

In order to do that, we develop a technique, which we believe can have further applications, of approximating Chase(D, T), for a database instance D and some sets of tuple generating dependencies T, by an infinite sequence of finite structures, all of them being models of T.
ALMA Lensing Cluster Survey: Joint exploration with JWST into NIR-dark, intrinsically faint ALMA sources at z=2-4
Creators: name: Tsujita, Akiyoshi
Publisher: name: Zenodo

description: Since the advent of ALMA, explorations in the early Universe have extended beyond extreme star-forming galaxies (classical SMGs) to include much fainter sources (S_1.2mm < 1 mJy), which overlap main-sequence galaxies selected in optical/near-infrared (NIR) observations. However, some of these faint ALMA objects are undetectable in deep NIR imaging due to strong dust attenuation. They are referred to as NIR-dark sources and have been overlooked in previous single-dish SMG surveys and Lyman-break selections. Although this population is thought to play a significant role in understanding the formation of massive galaxies, their physical characterization has been hindered due to the difficulties of observations, which in turn obscures our understanding of the physical origin of the strong dust attenuation. 
We performed ALMA follow-up line scan observations toward four triple-lensed, NIR-dark faint ALMA sources which are discovered by ALMA Lensing Cluster Survey, a 1.2 mm survey covering 33-lensing cluster regions. We successfully detected CO/[CII]158um emission lines and identified their spectroscopic redshifts to be z=2.4-3.7. We constrained their physical parameters such as stellar mass, star formation rate, gas depletion time, and the size of dust continuum region. Two of the sources have compact dust-emitting regions (Re=0.5-0.6 kpc) and high surface IR density comparable to classical SMGs. In contrast, one source exhibits an extended dust emitting region (Re=1.3 kpc), typical star formation efficiency, and an elongated projected axis ratio. These results suggest that normal dusty star-forming galaxies with edge-on disks can be NIR-dark and may have been missed in previous optical/NIR surveys. We will also incorporate insights from the forthcoming publicly released JWST/NIRCam observations into our ongoing research discussions.

Improving Predictive Maintenance Using Machine Learning and IOT: A Business Approach to Lower Operating Expenses and Downtime
Creators: name: Vennila P, Maniraj V
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: The success of ML and IoT in optimizing predictive maintenance as a strategic optimization to save costs and operational downtime in a variety of industries is the main focus of this study. Reactive and preventative maintenance, like traditional maintenance techniques, are inefficient and lead to unscheduled downtime and higher maintenance expenses. Furthermore, this research highlights the drawbacks of these traditional approaches. It presents a predictive maintenance architecture that makes use of cutting-edge machine learning techniques and real-time data extraction from IoT sensors. The framework enables enterprises toanticipate equipment breakdowns and carry out proactive maintenance by utilizing historical and real-time data analysis. For several case studies, the results provide a 20–30% decrease in maintenance costs and a 30–40% decrease in unplanned downtime, demonstrating the efficacy of the suggested strategy. Additionally, research is being done on the wider ramifications of combining ML with IoT technology to boost operational effectiveness and competitiveness in the manufacturing, energy, and transportation sectors. The study concludes by suggesting future research avenues that include incorporating edge computing, testing more ML algorithms, and assessing long-term cost savings. The thesis also provides helpful advice on how companies can use predictive maintenance methods by making investments in IoT infrastructure, preserving high data quality, and providing staff training to improve maintenance procedures even more. This study advances the field of predictive maintenance and offers practical advice on how businesses can leverage technology to enhance their operational efficiency and maintenance plans.

description: After recent AIA observations by Savage, McKenzie and Reeves we revisit the scenario proposed by us in previous papers. We have shown that sunward, generally dark plasma features originated above posteruption flare arcades are consistent with a scenario where plasma voids (which we identify as supra--arcade reconnection outflows, SAROs) generate the bouncing and interfering of shocks and expansion waves upstream of an initial localized deposition of energy which is collimated in the magnetic field direction. In this paper we analyze the multiple production and interaction of SAROs and their individual structure that make them relatively stable features while moving. We compare our results with observations and with the scenarios proposed by other authors.

Quantum renormalization group approach to geometric phases in spin chains

description: A relation between geometric phases and criticality of spin chains are studied by using the quantum renormalization-group approach. We have shown how the geometric phase evolve as the size of the system becomes large, i.e., the finite size scaling is obtained. The renormalization scheme demonstrates how the first derivative of the geometric phase with respect to the field strength diverges at the critical point and maximum value of the first derivative and its position scales with an exponent of the system size. This exponent is directly associated with the critical properties of the model where, the exponent governing the divergence of the correlation length close to the quantum critical point.

From cradle-to-grave at the nanoscale : expert risk perceptions, decision-analysis, and life cycle regulation for emerging nanotechnologies
Creators: name: Beaudrie, Christian Earl Henry
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: Engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) promise great benefits for society, yet our knowledge of potential risks and best practices for regulation are still in their infancy. High uncertainty and novel ENM properties complicate the management of risk, rendering existing regulatory frameworks inadequate. This thesis investigates the challenges that nanotechnologies pose for risk regulation, and aims to inform the development of policies and practices to address these challenges. In chapter 2, US federal environmental, health and safety (EHS) regulations are analyzed using a life cycle framework, to evaluate their adequacy as applied to ENMs. This analysis reveals that life cycle risk management of nanomaterials under existing regulations is plagued with difficulty, and populated by myriad gaps through which ENM may escape federal oversight altogether. Chapters 3 and 4 examine expert opinions on risks, and perceptions of regulatory agency preparedness to manage risks, using a web-based survey (N=404) of US and Canadian nanotechnology experts. Risk and preparedness perceptions were found to differ significantly across groups of experts. Nano-scientists and engineers were more than twice as likely as nano-regulators to believe that benefits from nanotechnology would greatly exceed risk. Yet, those working in regulatory agencies were far more likely to regard government agencies as unprepared than were experts outside government. These differences were explained by expert views of the novelty of benefits and risks, attitudes toward other classes of risk, preferred approaches to regulation, experts’ degree of economic conservatism, and trust in regulatory agencies. Recognizing the myriad challenges for risk regulation, chapter 5 explores the use of decision-analytic models to cope with uncertainty. Drawing on baseline data monitoring efforts of the US EPA and California DTSC, this chapter argues for the use of novel decision-analytic tools and approaches (such as risk ranking, multi-criteria decision analysis, and “control banding”) in lieu of formal risk assessment to meet regulators’ goals in particular decision contexts. Considered together, this thesis concludes that oversight can be improved through pending regulatory reforms, the utilization of expert opinion to inform decision-making, and the development of improved decision-analytic tools that enable the assessment and management of risks under high uncertainty.
