description: The method of non-invasive ultrasound surgery using focusing phased arrays has already been successfully used for surgical operations. When creating ultrasound therapeutic complexes, it is necessary to check the parameters of the power focusing emitter and the electronic system for moving the focus. In this paper, we investigated the field of a multi-element radiator, and also compared the obtained results with theoretical calculations.
La differenziazione al servizio dell'inclusione: un'esperienza incentrata sulla pallavolo
Creators: name: Romico, Giulia
Publisher: name: Scuola Universitaria della Svizzera Italiana (SUPSI)
Year: 2023

description: “Inclusione” un termine spesso accostato ad esigenze riguardanti una disabilità o a bisogni educativi speciali. Oggi finalmente riguarda tutti, in quanto ciascun individuo è unico e deve essere il centro del suo apprendimento. Con i mezzi che ci sono concessi ed attraverso teorie e guide pratiche si può riuscire nell’impresa, ardua, quanto fondamentale per la costruzione di una società che accoglie anziché respingere ed unisce anziché dividere. Partire dalle fondamenta, ovvero i giovani in crescita è atto dovuto. In questo lavoro si cerca, attraverso la pallavolo, di rendere gli alunni consapevoli delle loro risorse, dei loro limiti, delle loro potenzialità e peculiarità. Questa aumentata consapevolezza li aiuterà a comprendere cosa sia la differenziazione, mezzo rivelatosi indispensabile al fine di ottenere un clima inclusivo. Senza forzature, ma in maniera naturale. Se la differenziazione non incombesse dall’alto come un macigno che sta per piombare sulle teste dei meno abili, ma fosse un mezzo riconosciuto e da poter scegliere in base alle proprie capacità e limiti, la conseguenza sarebbe un clima più disteso, meno giudicante e di conseguenza più inclusivo.

Bounds on the Capacity of the Relay Channel with Noncausal State at Source

description: We consider a three-terminal state-dependent relay channel with the channel state available non-causally at only the source. Such a model may be of interest for node cooperation in the framework of cognition, i.e., collaborative signal transmission involving cognitive and non-cognitive radios. We study the capacity of this communication model. One principal problem is caused by the relay's not knowing the channel state. For the discrete memoryless (DM) model, we establish two lower bounds and an upper bound on channel capacity. The first lower bound is obtained by a coding scheme in which the source describes the state of the channel to the relay and destination, which then exploit the gained description for a better communication of the source's information message. The coding scheme for the second lower bound remedies the relay's not knowing the states of the channel by first computing, at the source, the appropriate input that the relay would send had the relay known the states of the channel, and then transmitting this appropriate input to the relay. The relay simply guesses the sent input and sends it in the next block. The upper bound is non trivial and it accounts for not knowing the state at the relay and destination. For the general Gaussian model, we derive lower bounds on the channel capacity by exploiting ideas in the spirit of those we use for the DM model; and we show that these bounds are optimal for small and large noise at the relay irrespective to the strength of the interference. Furthermore, we also consider a special case model in which the source input has two components one of which is independent of the state. We establish a better upper bound for both DM and Gaussian cases and we also characterize the capacity in a number of special cases.

Bayesian inference of parameters in power system dynamic model using trajectory sensitivities
Creators: name: Nagi, Rubinderjit Singh
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: We propose an analytically tractable Bayesian method to infer parameters in power system dynamic models from noisy measurements of bus-voltage magnitudes and frequencies as well as active- and reactive-power injections. The proposed method is computationally appealing as it bypasses the large number of system model simulations typically required in sampling-based Bayesian inference. Instead, it relies on analytical linearization of the nonlinear system differential-algebraic-equation model enabled by trajectory sensitivities. Central to the proposed method is the construction of a linearized model with the maximum probability of being (closest to) the actual nonlinear model that gave rise to the measurement data. The linear model together with Gaussian prior leads to a conjugate family where the parameter posterior, model evidence, and their gradients can be computed in closed form, markedly improving scalability for large-scale power systems. We illustrate the effectiveness and key features of the proposed method with numerical case studies for a 3-bus system. Algorithmic scalability is then demonstrated via case studies involving the New England 39-bus test system.

description: Il seguente lavoro di ricerca documenta un progetto svolto nella pentaclasse di Sornico dove, attraverso la didattica per progetti, si è cercato di aiutare i bambini del primo ciclo a diventare maggiormente autonomi nella presa di decisioni, riuscendo a contare sulle proprie capacità. I bambini sono stati confrontati con la progettazione, la realizzazione e la cura di un piccolo orto in classe in vaso e hanno di conseguenza dovuto prendere diverse decisioni: cosa piantare, dove posizionare l’orto, come suddividersi i lavori per la tenuta e il controllo dell’orto. Quello che avrebbero poi raccolto, lo avrebbero usato per preparare una sorpresa per i compagni del secondo ciclo. I dati raccolti hanno dimostrato come la creazione di una situazione stimolante, in cui gli allievi hanno dovuto mobilitare le loro conoscenze e abilità per risolvere il problema senza ricorrere nell’immediato all’aiuto dell’adulto, abbia permesso nella maggior parte dei casi di portare i bambini a credere maggiormente nelle loro risorse.

A sbagliare le storie: una ricerca sulle fiabe divergenti alla Scuola dell'infanzia
Creators: name: Clemente, Sara
Publisher: name: Scuola Universitaria della Svizzera Italiana (SUPSI)
Year: 2015

description: Nel presente lavoro di tesi vengono analizzate le reazioni dei bambini della scuola dell’infanzia all’ascolto di tre storie, quali A sbagliare le storie di Gianni Rodari, Cappuccetto Rosso e Il lupo e i sette capretti, queste ultime nella versione dei fratelli Grimm. In particolare, viene osservato come tali racconti possano favorire lo sviluppo del pensiero divergente nei bambini. In un primo momento è stato chiesto agli allievi di parlare dei racconti applicando l’approccio Tell me di Aidan Chambers; successivamente, allo scopo di stimolare il pensiero divergente, i bambini sono stati sollecitati a svolgere l’attività di “sbagliare le storie”. Il lavoro ha consentito di confermare l’importanza della narrazione per lo sviluppo linguistico e cognitivo dei bambini di scuola dell’infanzia e di verificare l’importanza dell’impiego di storie divergenti accanto a quelle di impostazione più tradizionale.

description: We prove a theorem which shows that a collection of experimental data of probabilistic weights related to decisions with respect to situations and their disjunction cannot be modeled within a classical probabilistic weight structure in case the experimental data contain the effect referred to as the 'disjunction effect' in psychology. We identify different experimental situations in psychology, more specifically in concept theory and in decision theory, and in economics (namely situations where Savage's Sure-Thing Principle is violated) where the disjunction effect appears and we point out the common nature of the effect. We analyze how our theorem constitutes a no-go theorem for classical probabilistic weight structures for common experimental data when the disjunction effect is affecting the values of these data. We put forward a simple geometric criterion that reveals the non classicality of the considered probabilistic weights and we illustrate our geometrical criterion by means of experimentally measured membership weights of items with respect to pairs of concepts and their disjunctions. The violation of the classical probabilistic weight structure is very analogous to the violation of the well-known Bell inequalities studied in quantum mechanics. The no-go theorem we prove in the present article with respect to the collection of experimental data we consider has a status analogous to the well known no-go theorems for hidden variable theories in quantum mechanics with respect to experimental data obtained in quantum laboratories. For this reason our analysis puts forward a strong argument in favor of the validity of using a quantum formalism for modeling the considered psychological experimental data as considered in this paper.

description: Sine-Gordon kinks are a much studied integrable system that possesses multi-soliton solutions. Recent studies on sine-Gordon kinks with space-dependent square-well-type potentials have revealed interesting dynamics of a single kink interacting with wells and barriers. In this paper, we study a class of smooth space-dependent potentials and discuss the dynamics of one kink in the presence of different wells. We also present values for the critical velocity for different types of barriers. Furthermore, we study two kinks interacting with various wells and describe interesting trajectories such as double-trapping, kink knock-out and double-escape.

description: In the distrustful quantum cryptography model the different parties have conflicting interests and do not trust one another. Nevertheless, they trust the quantum devices in their labs. The aim of the device-independent approach to cryptography is to do away with the necessity of making this assumption, and, consequently, significantly increase security. In this paper we enquire whether the scope of the device-independent approach can be extended to the distrustful cryptography model, thereby rendering it `fully' distrustful. We answer this question in the affirmative by presenting a device-independent (imperfect) bit-commitment protocol, which we then use to construct a device-independent coin flipping protocol.

Quantum Particles as Conceptual Entities: A Possible Explanatory Framework for Quantum Theory
Creators: name: Aerts, Diederik
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences
subject: 81Pxx

description: We put forward a possible new interpretation and explanatory framework for quantum theory. The basic hypothesis underlying this new framework is that quantum particles are conceptual entities. More concretely, we propose that quantum particles interact with ordinary matter, nuclei, atoms, molecules, macroscopic material entities, measuring apparatuses, ..., in a similar way to how human concepts interact with memory structures, human minds or artificial memories. We analyze the most characteristic aspects of quantum theory, i.e. entanglement and non-locality, interference and superposition, identity and individuality in the light of this new interpretation, and we put forward a specific explanation and understanding of these aspects. The basic hypothesis of our framework gives rise in a natural way to a Heisenberg uncertainty principle which introduces an understanding of the general situation of 'the one and the many' in quantum physics. A specific view on macro and micro different from the common one follows from the basic hypothesis and leads to an analysis of Schrodinger's Cat paradox and the measurement problem different from the existing ones. We reflect about the influence of this new quantum interpretation and explanatory framework on the global nature and evolutionary aspects of the world and human worldviews, and point out potential explanations for specific situations, such as the generation problem in particle physics, the confinement of quarks and the existence of dark matter.

Year: 2017

description: Il mio lavoro di tesi intende trattare del rapporto tra internet e i bambini di quarta quinta elementare. L’obiettivo è quello di instaurare una comunicazione tra gli allievi e le famiglie su questo argomento, in modo che il bambino possa essere aiutato e guidato nella sperimentazione e la scoperta del web. La tesi si sviluppa evidenziando i cambiamenti cognitivi dei cosiddetti nativi digitali ed evidenzia i maggiori rischi che si incontrando nella navigazione. In seguito è stata fatta una ricerca di tipo quantitativo per rispondere alla domanda: “come utilizzano Internet i bambini di quarte e quinta elementare nella mia classe?”. Dai risultati emerge un utilizzo estensivo dei dispositivi elettronici con connessione ad Internet, ma inconsapevole da parte dei bambini. Sono state interrogate anche le famiglie, che sono risultate disponibili a lasciar utilizzare i dispositivi elettronici mettendo in atto poca sorveglianza. Con i bambini è stato svolto un percorso che ha spiegato le basi del funzionamento di Internet; in seguito, per concludere l’itinerario, è stato chiesto l’intervento delle famiglie per rispondere alla seguente domanda: “a cosa bisogna prestare attenzione quando si utilizza Internet?”. Dai risultati emergono serietà e dialogo tra i bambini e le proprie famiglie, dimostrando che l’itinerario svolto ha avuto dei riscontri positivi. Relatore: Luca Botturi

description: For a system with three identical nucleons in a single-$j$ shell, the states can be written as the angular momentum coupling of a nucleon pair and the odd nucleon. The overlaps between these non-orthonormal states form a matrix which coincides with the one derived by Rowe and Rosensteel [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 87}, 172501 (2001)]. The propositions they state are related to the eigenvalue problems of the matrix and dimensions of the associated subspaces. In this work, the propositions will be proven from the symmetric properties of the $6j$ symbols. Algebraic expressions for the dimension of the states, eigenenergies as well as conditions for conservation of seniority can be derived from the matrix.

description: Electron transport in Ge at various temperatures down to 20 mK has been investigated using particle Monte Carlo simulation taking into account ionized impurity and inelastic phonon scattering. The simulations account for the essential features of electron transport at cryogenic temperature: Ohmic regime, anisotropy of the drift velocity relative to the direction of the electric field, as well as a negative differential mobility phenomenon along the <111> field orientation. Experimental data for the electron velocities are reproduced with a satisfactory accuracy. Examples of electron position in the real space during the simulations are given and evidence separated clouds of electrons propagating along different directions depending on the valley they belong.

Interpreting Quantum Particles as Conceptual Entities

description: We elaborate an interpretation of quantum physics founded on the hypothesis that quantum particles are conceptual entities playing the role of communication vehicles between material entities composed of ordinary matter which function as memory structures for these quantum particles. We show in which way this new interpretation gives rise to a natural explanation for the quantum effects of interference and entanglement by analyzing how interference and entanglement emerge for the case of human concepts. We put forward a scheme to derive a metric based on similarity as a predecessor for the structure of 'space, time, momentum, energy' and 'quantum particles interacting with ordinary matter' underlying standard quantum physics, within the new interpretation, and making use of aspects of traditional quantum axiomatics. More specifically, we analyze how the effect of non-locality arises as a consequence of the confrontation of such an emerging metric type of structure and the remaining presence of the basic conceptual structure on the fundamental level, with the potential of being revealed in specific situations.

An extended XMM-Newton observation of the Seyfert galaxy NGC 4051. II. Soft X-ray emission from a limb-brightened shell of post-shock gas

description: An extended XMM-Newton observation of the Seyfert I galaxy NGC 4051 in 2009 revealed a complex absorption spectrum, with a wide range of outflow velocities and ionisation states.The main velocity and ionisation structure was interpreted in Paper I in terms of a decelerating, recombining flow resulting from the shocking of a still higher velocity wind colliding with the ISM or slower moving ejecta. The high sensitivity of the XMM-Newton observation also revealed a number of broad emission lines, all showing evidence of self-absorption near the line cores. The line profiles are found here to be consistent with emission from a limb-brightened shell of post-shock gas building up ahead of the contact discontinuity. While the broad emission lines remain quasi-constant as the continuum flux changes by an order of magnitude, recombination continua of several H- and He-like ions are found to vary in response to the continuum, providing an important key to scaling the ionised flow.

description: The difficulty of simulating quantum systems, well-known to quantum chemists, prompted the idea of quantum computation. One can avoid the steep scaling associated with the exact simulation of increasingly large quantum systems on conventional computers, by mapping the quantum system to another, more controllable one. In this review, we discuss to what extent the ideas in quantum computation, now a well-established field, have been applied to chemical problems. We describe algorithms that achieve significant advantages for the electronic-structure problem, the simulation of chemical dynamics, protein folding, and other tasks. Although theory is still ahead of experiment, we outline recent advances that have led to the first chemical calculations on small quantum information processors.

A co(s)mic guide to getting bent : shifting perspectives between science and literature in twentieth-century England
Creators: name: Moon, Lora Zosia
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2025

description: This dissertation uses the comics form as a theoretical and formal intervention to explore a shift in perspective unfolding between science and literature in early twentieth-century Britain. Each comic chapter visually and narratively explores a shared investment in moving beyond singular, geocentric, and anthropocentric frames of reference in the works of Arthur Eddington, James Jeans, Olaf Stapledon, and Virginia Woolf. Eddington maintained that standpoint matters in the contemplation of the world, signalling a shift away from a Newtonian cosmology, which held that space and time exist independently of any perceiver, toward an Einsteinian one, where length, time, and mass differ depending on the frame of reference. A more robust vision⁠—Eddington contended⁠—is obtainable by combining multiple viewpoints, an idea which Jeans, Stapledon, and Woolf also explore in their writings. Chapter 1 presents two exercises of perspective to reveal how Eddington and Jeans require readers to move beyond geocentric, anthropocentric, and singular viewpoints in their science popularizations. I investigate the tension between their approaches, where Jeans struggles to embrace a multiplicity that Eddington foregrounds in his explications. Chapter 2 explores how Stapledon’s "Star Maker" illustrates a radical performance of multiplicity and a re-inscription of the singular perspective that relativity supplanted. Chapter 3 asks readers to construct a three-dimensional model of Woolf’s "The Waves" in order to participate in four interactive exercises of perspective, each differently demonstrating how Woolf articulates a shift beyond singular and anthropocentric viewpoints by modelling the entanglement among humans and nonhumans. Chapter 4 moves the discursive frame beyond the human by unleashing two dogs whose lives separately intersected Woolf’s and Stapledon’s lived experience. In doing so, I juxtapose Woolf’s "Flush" and Stapledon’s "Sirius" to reveal how both authors’ depictions of a dog’s-nose view of the world and interspecies love blur familiar human/nonhuman boundaries and contest human presuppositions of ‘a priori’ separations between dog and nondog. Crucially, this comics dissertation creates a site of co-operative meaning making, not only through the interacting of historical fact and fictional speculation, but also with the reader’s own perspective being a part of—not apart from—the multiplying perspectives at play.

The O I] 1641A line as a probe of symbiotic star winds

description: The neutral oxygen resonance 1302A line can, if the optical depth is sufficiently high, de-excite by an intercombination transition at 1641A to a metastable state. This has been noted in a number of previous studies but never systematically investigated as a diagnostic of the neutral red giant wind in symbiotic stars and symbiotic-like recurrent novae. We used archival $IUE$ high resolution, and GHRS and STIS medium and high resolution, spectra to study a sample of symbiotic stars. The integrated fluxes were measured, where possible, for the O I 1302A and O I] 1641A lines. The intercombination 1641A line is detected in a substantial number of symbiotic stars with optical depths that give column densities comparable with direct eclipse measures (EG And) and the evolution of the recurrent nova RS Oph 1985 in outburst. In four systems (EG And, Z And, V1016 Cyg, and RR Tel), we find that the O I] variations are strongly correlated with the optical light curve and outburst activity. This transition can also be important for the study of a wide variety of sources in which an ionization-bounded H II region is imbedded in an extensive neutral medium, including active galactic nuclei, and not only for evaluations of extinction.

description: The constraints of fixed-target DIS data in fits of parton distributions including QCD corrections to next-to-next-to leading order are studied. We point out a potential problem in the analysis of the NMC data which can lead to inconsistencies in the extracted value for alpha_s(M_Z) and the gluon distribution at higher orders in QCD. The implications for predictions of rates for Standard Model Higgs boson production at hadron colliders are investigated. We conclude that the current range of excluded Higgs boson masses at the Tevatron appears to be much too large.

Thermal Abelian monopoles as selfdual dyons

Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Lattice (hep-lat)

description: The properties of the thermal Abelian monopoles are studied in the deconfinement phase of the SU(2) gluodynamics. To remove effects of Gribov copies the simulated annealing algorithm is applied to fix the maximally Abelian gauge. To study monopole profile we complete the first computations of excess of the nonabelian action density as a function of the distance from the center of the thermal Abelian monopole. We have found that starting from the distances $\approx$ 2 lattice spacings the chromoelectric and chromomagnetic action densities created by monopole are equal to each other, from what we draw a conclusion that monopole is a dyon. Furthermore, we find that the chromoelectric and chromomagnetic fields decrease exponentially with increasing distance. These findings were confirmed for different temperatures in the range $T/T_c \in (1.5, 4.8)$.

Predicted and Verified Deviation from Zipf's Law in Growing Social Networks
Creators: name: Zhang, Qunzhi

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Physics and Society (physics.soc-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Zipf's power law is a general empirical regularity found in many natural and social systems. A recently developed theory predicts that Zipf's law corresponds to systems that are growing according to a maximally sustainable path in the presence of random proportional growth, stochastic birth and death processes. We report a detailed empirical analysis of a burgeoning network of social groups, in which all ingredients needed for Zipf's law to apply are verifiable and verified. We estimate empirically the average growth $r$ and its standard deviation $σ$ as well as the death rate $h$ and predict without adjustable parameters the exponent $μ$ of the power law distribution $P(s)$ of the group sizes $s$. The predicted value $μ= 0.75 \pm 0.05$ is in excellent agreement with maximum likelihood estimations. According to theory, the deviation of $P(s)$ from Zipf's law (i.e., $μ< 1$) constitutes a direct statistical quantitative signature of the overall non-stationary growth of the social universe.

A self-consistent quantum master equation approach to molecular transport

description: We propose a self-consistent generalized quantum master equation (GQME) to describe electron transport through molecular junctions. In a previous study [M.Esposito and M.Galperin. Phys. Rev. B 79, 205303 (2009)], we derived a time-nonlocal GQME to cure the lack of broadening effects in Redfield theory. To do so, the free evolution used in the Born-Markov approximation to close the Redfield equation was replaced by a standard Redfield evolution. In the present paper, we propose a backward Redfield evolution leading to a time-local GQME which allows for a self-consistent procedure of the GQME generator. This approach is approximate but properly reproduces the nonequilibrium steady state density matrix and the currents of an exactly solvable model. The approach is less accurate for higher moments such as the noise.
