description: Temperature programed desorption has been used to study the desorption kinetics and desorption
energies of a set of alcohols and fluorinated alcohols adsorbed on an a-CHx film. The alcohols serve
as models for the hydroxyl end groups of Fomblin Zdol, the lubricant most commonly used with the
amorphous carbon overcoats sputtered onto the surfaces of magnetic data storage disks.
Temperature programed desorption has been used to measure the desorption energies of the alcohols
over a range of coverages and to compare the desorption energies of fluorinated and hydrocarbon
alcohols. The desorption energies are all coverage dependent and decrease with increasing alcohol
coverage. This is believed to be due to heterogeneity of the a-CHx films surface. In all cases the low
coverage desorption energies of the fluorinated alcohols were found to be higher than those of their
hydrocarbon counterparts. The implications of this observation are that the interaction of the
alcohols is through hydrogen bonding of the hydroxyl groups to the a-CHx films. This conclusion
is consistent with that reached in a similar study of the adsorption of alcohols to the surfaces of
a-CHx films.

description: Entanglement is a ubiquitous feature of low temperature systems and believed to be highly relevant for the dynamics of condensed matter properties and quantum computation even at higher temperatures. The experimental certification of this paradigmatic quantum effect in macroscopic high temperature systems is constrained by the limited access to the quantum state of the system. In this paper we show how macroscopic observables beyond the energy of the system can be exploited as proxy witnesses for entanglement detection. Using linear and semi-definite relaxations we show that all previous approaches to this problem can be outperformed by our proxies, i.e. entanglement can be certified at higher temperatures without access to any local observable. For an efficient computation of proxy witnesses one can resort to a generalized grand canonical ensemble, enabling entanglement certification even in complex systems with macroscopic particle numbers.

DMA1 AND DMA2: NOVEL REGULATORS OF DOUBLE-STRAND BREAK RESPONSE IN S. CEREVISIAE
Creators: name: BERTOLOTTI, MARTA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2019

description: Double-strand breaks (DSBs) are extremely cytotoxic DNA lesions. If not properly repaired, they cause pathological alterations either in the structure or in the sequence of chromosomes, significantly increasing genome instability and predisposition to cancer development in higher eukaryotes. As a consequence, cells evolved an elaborate network of mechanisms that rapidly recognize and repair strand breaks, protecting genome integrity. This process, globally known as DNA Damage Response (DDR), consists mainly in the activation of both the DNA damage checkpoint and specific repair pathways (i.e. Non Homologous End Joining (NHEJ) and Homologous Recombination (HR), in the case of DSBs), coupled with chromatin remodeling and modulation of gene expression. In the last few years, many studies uncovered the essential contribution of ubiquitination and SUMOylation in the control of the DDR. I report a new role for the two budding yeast FHA-RING ubiquitin ligases Dma1 and Dma2 in regulating the response to DSB. In particular, I show that these proteins are required for the repair of specific DNA lesions characterized by dirty ends, such as those generated by bleocin. According to my data, Dma1 and Dma2 are recruited to damaged chromatin and, through ubiquitination, promote the removal from DNA of the MRX complex, which is otherwise persistently blocked at Bleocin-induced modified ends. Stable accumulation of the MRX complex at the break site causes severe defects in the repair of broken chromosomes and a strong Tel1-dependent DNA damage checkpoint hyperactivation. In conclusion, I propose that Dma1 and Dma2 play a critical role in the resolution of DNA-protein crosslink at DSB ends, probably through the direct ubiquitination and degradation via proteasome of the crosslinked factor.
Property-Driven Black-Box Testing of Numeric Functions

description: In this work, we propose a property-driven testing mechanism to perform unit testing of functions performing numerical computations. Our approach, similar to the property-based testing technique, allows the tester to specify the requirements to check. Unlike property-based testing, the specification is then used to generate test cases in a targeted manner. Moreover, our approach works as a black-box testing tool, i.e. it does not require knowledge about the internals of the function under test. Therefore, besides on programmed numeric functions, we also apply our technique to machine-learned regression models. The experimental evaluation on a number of case studies shows the effectiveness of our testing approach.

description: Quantum Mechanics and Signal Processing in the line R, are strictly related to Fourier Transform and Weyl-Heisenberg algebra. We discuss here the addition of a new discrete variable that measures the degree of the Hermite functions and allows to obtain the projective algebra io(2). A Rigged Hilbert space is found and a new discrete basis in R obtained. The operators {O[R]} defined on R are shown to belong to the Universal Enveloping Algebra UEA[io(2)] allowing, in this way, their algebraic discussion. Introducing in the half-line a Fourier-like Transform, the procedure is extended to R^+ and can be easily generalized to R^n and to spherical reference systems.

description: We study the asymptotic and pre-asymptotic diffusive properties of Brownian particles in channels whose section varies periodically in space. The effective diffusion coefficient $D_{\mathrm{eff}}$ is numerically determined by the asymptotic behavior of the root mean square displacement in different geometries, considering even cases of steep variations of the channel boundaries. Moreover, we compared the numerical results to the predictions from the various corrections proposed in the literature to the well known Fick-Jacobs approximation. Building an effective one dimensional equation for the longitudinal diffusion, we obtain an approximation for the effective diffusion coefficient. Such a result goes beyond a perturbation approach, and it is in good agreement with the actual values obtained by the numerical simulations. We discuss also the pre-asymptotic diffusion which is observed up to a crossover time whose value, in the presence of strong spatial variation of the channel cross section, can be very large. In addition, we show how the Einstein's relation between the mean drift induced by a small external field and the mean square displacement of the unperturbed system is valid in both asymptotic and pre-asymptotic regimes.

description: Abstract: "This paper will attempt to show that one of the trends in the area of process synthesis is its gradual evolution towards the mathematical programming approach. This is in part due to the fundamental understanding that has been gained on the nature of the synthesis problems over the last twenty years. However, another major part has to do with the development of new and more powerful mathematical programming algorithms. In particular, the development of new MINLP algorithms, coupled with advances in computers and software, is opening promising possibilities to rigorously model, optimize and automate synthesis problems. A general overview of the MINLP approach and algorithms will be presented in this paper with the aim of gaining a basic understanding of these techniques.Strengths and weaknesses will be discussed, as well as difficulties and challenges that still need to be overcome. In particular, it will be shown how proper problem representations, effective modelling schemes and solution strategies can play a crucial role in the successful application of these techniques. The application of MINLP algorithms in process synthesis will be illustrated with several examples."

description: Learning advanced physics, in general, is challenging not only due to the increased mathematical sophistication but also because one must continue to build on all of the prior knowledge acquired at the introductory and intermediate levels. In addition, learning quantum mechanics can be especially challenging because the paradigms of classical mechanics and quantum mechanics are very different. Here, we review research on student reasoning difficulties in learning upper-level quantum mechanics and research on students' problem-solving and metacognitive skills in these courses. Some of these studies were multi-university investigations. The investigations suggest that there is large diversity in student performance in upper-level quantum mechanics regardless of the university, textbook, or instructor and many students in these courses have not acquired a functional understanding of the fundamental concepts. The nature of reasoning difficulties in learning quantum mechanics is analogous to reasoning difficulties found via research in introductory physics courses. The reasoning difficulties were often due to over-generalizations of concepts learned in one context to another context where they are not directly applicable. Reasoning difficulties in distinguishing between closely related concepts and in making sense of the formalism of quantum mechanics were common. We conclude with a brief summary of the research-based approached that take advantage of research on student difficulties in order to improve teaching and learning of quantum mechanics.

description: Sea turtles experience considerable changes in water temperatures during migrations and seasonal movements that will influence their body temperatures. Nothing is known of how sea turtles' core body temperatures vary from season to season at nesting sites. Over seven consecutive seasons we measured the surface temperatures of freshly laid eggs as proxies of core body temperatures of sea turtles using non-contact infrared thermometers. We estimated the temperatures of two species that have contrasting migration patterns - leatherbacks, which are adapted to migrate between tropical breeding sites to cold temperate waters, and hawksbills that are confined to the tropics and sub-tropics. We found considerable year-to-year variations in temperatures in both species (means ranging from 30.4°C to 31.5°C in leatherbacks), hawksbills the more so (28.1°C to 30.3°C). These differences will likely be modified by both natural seasonal variations and anthropogenic changes in global ocean temperatures and resulting changes in currents and water temperatures local to nesting beaches. These previously unrecognised fluctuations in body temperatures of nesting turtles have, it is argued, potential for predicting environmental tolerances, reproductive success, and nest site selection by sea turtles, and contribute to predictions of which rookeries may remain viable or not during future ocean warming.

REACTION RATE CONSTANTS IN CONDENSED PHASE. A NUMERICALLY EXACT QUANTUM STUDY
Creators: name: SIBILLA, AMBRA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2021

description: The long term aim of this project was the interaction between Hydrogen atoms and graphene-like surfaces, typical condensed-phase processes. In particular we were interested in the InterStellar Medium (ISM) environment, where the extremely low temperature, combined with the relevant wave-like behavior of a light atom such as H, makes quantum effects not negligible. The main theoretical challenge lies in the huge computational cost required by an exact quantum calculation. Indeed, in order to model a surface, we need to consider a high number of degrees of freedom, which leads to an exponential increase of the computational time. However, since the substrate importance essentially resides in its capability to activate the process and its role in reaching an equilibrium, we can approximate the environment as an ensemble of independent Harmonic Oscillators (HOs), called bath, coupled with the main system (H atom). With this strategy we can simulate the reaction dynamics taking into account the quantum coherence, the thermal fluctuations and the dissipation of energy excess generated during the reaction, and strongly reduce the computational cost. In order to perform the dynamics of the entire setup (system+bath) we exploited a high-dimensional wave-packet technique, the MultiConfiguration Time-Dependent Hartree (MCTDH) approach, computationally cheaper than standard quantum dynamics methods, operating with the Multi Layer (ML) extension of the Heidelberg package. Combining a Monte Carlo sampling of the initial bath state (described with both normal and effective mode representation) with the means of MCTDH dynamics, we obtained thermal rate constants for several temperatures and system-bath friction values. In order to model the condensed-phase processes we were interested in, we considered at first a simple problem described by a symmetric monodimensional potential, useful as diffusion model. We tested the methodology comparing our results with the ones obtained with other techniques, investigating a wide range of reaction regimes and focusing on the quantum-classical crossover. Our results obtained at very low temperatures have been used as benchmarks for the Ring Polymer Instanton (RPI) technique, employed in the Theoretical Molecular Quantum Dynamics research group of Professor Jeremy Richardson, at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETH). Once a full study of the symmetric problem was conducted, we switched to an asymmetrical potential (again monodimensional) that can be a first approximation of a phenomenon involved in the hydrogen formation in interstellar clouds: the transition from the physisorption well to the chemisorption one of H atoms on interstellar dust grains.

description: The dynamics of oligomer desorption from surfaces has been studied by measuring the desorption kinetics of a set of straight chain alkanes [ H(CH2)nH, with n  =  5 to 60] from the surface of single crystalline graphite. Desorption is observed to be a first-order process and the preexponent of the desorption rate constant has a value ν  =  1019.6±0.5 sec-1 and is independent of the oligomer chain length. More interestingly, we find that the barrier to desorption has a nonlinear dependence on chain length and takes the form ΔEdes‡  =  A+Bnα, with the exponent α  =  0.50±0.01.

description: Parity measurement is a central tool to many quantum information processing tasks. In this Letter, we propose a method to directly measure two- and four-qubit parity with low overhead in hard- and software, while remaining robust to experimental imperfections. Our scheme relies on dispersive qubit-cavity coupling and photon counting that is sensitive only to intensity; both ingredients are widely realized in many different quantum computing modalities. For a leading technology in quantum computing, superconducting integrated circuits, we analyze the measurement contrast and the back action of the scheme and show that this measurement comes close enough to an ideal parity measurement to be applicable to quantum error correction.

PLUTARCO, PLATONICAE QUAESTIONES. TRADUZIONE E COMMENTO.

Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano

description: The aim of the thesis is the Italian translation and the first Italian running commentary of Plutarch?s exegetical work Platonicae Quaestiones (following the text established by Harold Cherniss in his critic edition for the Loeb Classical Library, Plutarch Moralia vol. XIII, part. I, 1976). The introduction of the thesis is devoted to the literary genre of the quaestiones, its importance in the imperial age and within Plutarch?s philosophical production. The core of the thesis is then composed by the translation followed by an accurate study of each quaestio. The commentary focuses on Plutarch?s argumentation, starting from his approach to the platonic text quoted at the beginning of the quaestio. Hence, Plutarch?s exegesis is compared with that of the other platonic questions, with the plutarchean corpus and with the platonic environment of his time. The commentary reports the modern debate about each quaestio. The conclusion of the thesis tries to demonstrate the presence of a thematic continuity within the ten quaestiones, that apparently are only a disorganized collection. Given this feature, it is less plausible to imagine that Plutarch composed the Platonicae Quaestiones with the specific aim to build a philosophical path. On the other hand, it is more than correct to recognize that the impression of a thematic continuity within the ten quaestiones depends on the ubiquitous presence of those issues that are pivotal in Plutarch?s philosophy: god, cosmic soul and individual soul.

description: Abstract: "Production planning and scheduling are intimately linked activities. Since the production goals set at the planning level must account for the ability to implement them at the scheduling level, ideally both activities should be analyzed simultaneously. However, this in general is a very difficult task given the large combinatorial nature of just the scheduling problem in itself. In this work, based on a previously developed LP flowshop scheduling model by Birewar and Grossmann, (1989b) that can effectively aggregate the number of batches belonging to each product, a multiperiod LP model is proposed for the simultaneous production planning and scheduling of multiproduct batch plants that may consist of one or several nonidentical parallel lines.Inventory costs, sequence dependent cleanup times and costs, and penalties for production shortfalls are readily accounted for in this model. The actual schedule to achieve the production goals predicted by the planning problem is derived by applying a graph enumeration method to the results from the simultaneous planning and scheduling model or by any other scheduling method. Several examples are presented to illustrate the proposed method."

description: Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins, dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are widespread environmental contaminants. They enter the human body mainly with food and because of lipophilic character they accumulate in fatty tissues. Knowledge about the intake and body burden of PCDD/Fs and PCBs in a population helps to focus efforts to diminish population exposure to these compounds. This study aimed to interpret the results from a recent biomonitoring study of PCDD/Fs and PCBs in breast milk of Italian non-occupationally exposed mothers by a PBPK model of mother and infant. Measurements included detection of 2,3,7,8 substituted polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins, polychlorinated dibenzofurans and polychlorinated biphenyls and estimation of the dietary intake of these pollutants by lactating infants. The modelling part was focused on one PCB congener ? PCB 153. Here, reverse dosimetry was performed to estimate mother external dose, and forward dosimetry to predict tissue concentrations in mother and infant daily intake. The modeling outcomes provided an historical perspective on the changing exposure of the Italian population to PCB-153. They realistically reflect the evolution of daily intake during the mother?s life, and evolution of blood contamination. At the same time it was proved that breast milk is good biomarker of historical exposure and in combination with PBPK modeling can be used to characterize prospectively and retrospectively, internal and external exposures. So far, this is the first study which reconstructed the dynamic exposure for specific population. Results of this work can dramatically change the way to perform modeling for substances such us POPs, similar trends to PCBs is observed for PCDD/Fs , DDT, HCB etc.

description: The detection of high energy neutrinos ($10^{15}-10^{20}$ eV or $1-10^{5}$ PeV) is an important step toward understanding the most energetic cosmic accelerators and would enable tests of fundamental physics at energy scales that cannot easily be achieved on Earth. In this energy range, there are two expected populations of neutrinos: the astrophysical flux observed with IceCube at lower energies ($\sim1$ PeV) and the predicted cosmogenic flux at higher energies ($\sim10^{18}$ eV). Radio detector arrays such as RICE, ANITA, ARA, and ARIANNA exploit the Askaryan effect and the radio transparency of glacial ice, which together enable enormous volumes of ice to be monitored with sparse instrumentation. We describe here the design for a phased radio array that would lower the energy threshold of radio techniques to the PeV scale, allowing measurement of the astrophysical flux observed with IceCube over an extended energy range. Meaningful energy overlap with optical Cherenkov telescopes could be used for energy calibration. The phased radio array design would also provide more efficient coverage of the large effective volume required to discover cosmogenic neutrinos.

description: The production of biodiesel from algae is optimized using bioethanol following four different transesterification paths: alkali, enzymatic, and heterogeneous catalysts and supercritical conditions. The reactors are modeled using response surface methodology based on experimental results from the literature. These reactor models are implemented together with short-cut methods for the other equipment (distillation columns, gravity separators, etc.) in order to recover the ethanol, separate the polar and nonpolar phases, and purify the glycerol and biodiesel produced to formulate the problem as a superstructure of alternatives. The aim is to simultaneously optimize and heat integrate the production of biodiesel using ethanol in terms of the reaction technology and the operating conditions. The optimal conditions in the reactors differ from the ones traditionally used because these results take the separation stages into account. In terms of the optimal process, the alkali catalyzed process is the most profitable, while the enzymatic one is also promising due to the lower consumption of energy and water, although it requires significant enzyme cost.

description: The article aims to critically reconstruct the dichotomy res corporales-res incorporales from Gai 2.12-14. In particular, attention is focused on the historical origin of the distinction and the discretional criterion underlying it, on the comparison between this distinction and the further distinction relative to res mancipi-res nec mancipi, and, finally, on the developments that the conceptual pair finds in the main modern codifications.

description: We study the impact of the symmetry energy on properties of nuclear pasta phases and crust-core transition in neutron stars. We perform a self-consistent Thomas--Fermi calculation employing the relativistic mean-field model. The properties of pasta phases presented in the inner crust of neutron stars are investigated and the crust-core transition is examined. It is found that the slope of the symmetry energy plays an important role in determining the pasta phase structure and the crust-core transition. The correlation between the symmetry energy slope and the crust-core transition density obtained in the Thomas--Fermi approximation is consistent with that predicted by the liquid-drop model.

description: Se a escola tem por missão colaborar na formação integral do aluno, então não pode ignorar nenhuma das suas dimensões específicas, sob pena de não poder concretizar o seu objectivo principal. Não considero, pois, a presença das «religiões» na escola como um privilégio concedido a determinados grupos, ou uma cedência feita a determinadas instituições.Pelo contrário, considero a sua presença como um dever da própria escola.

description: A neutralidade do Estado prossegue três grandes objectivos: assegura a paz religiosa, garante o livre exercício do direito individual e colectivo à liberdade religiosa, permite, enfim, o desenvolvimento do direito de cidadania, por forma que o cidadão não se sinta estrangeiro no seu próprio Estado, sendo este o lugar de todos os cidadãos. Deste modo, a neutralidade do Estado não é perspectivada de forma passiva, com o Estado como espectador, mas de forma activa ou cooperativa.

description: In Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) the relationships between cell proliferation and accumulation within lymphoid organs are unclear, as are the rules that control CLL cell migration and re-circulation. We previous demonstrated that Hematopoietic cell specific Lyn substrate 1 (HS1) is involved in the natural history of CLL (Scielzo et al JCI 2005). Furthermore, we have shown that HS1 interacts with distinct cytoskeleton adapters and is likely involved in cytoskeleton reorganization (Muzio et al, Leukemia 2007). Given the role played by the cytoskeleton in controlling cellular shape, mobility and homing, we hypothesized that HS1 could be potentially relevant in the regulation of CLL cells infiltration into lymphoid tissues and re-circulation between peripheral blood and tissues. To study HS1 function in vitro, we silenced its expression in a CLL cell line (MEC1), and we tested its capacity to migrate in an in vitro and in vivo assay. We also analysed B cells from HS1 KO mice (Fukuda et al, EMBO J. 1995) and we showed that in both cellular systems HS1-deficient B cells are severely impaired in their spontaneous migration capacity. A decrease in F-actin polymerization and an increased aggregation ability was also evident in cells lacking HS1. We then observed that HS1 is central for the initiation and maintenance of B-Cell Receptor (BCR) signalling events. Indeed in the absence of HS1, cells failed to form actin-myosin complexes thereby leading to an instability of the cell signalling complex, in particular of the signalosome complex proximal to the BCR. Lyn, VAV, HIP-55, SHP-1 and RAC1/2 were directly affected by the absence of HS1 while Syk, PLC-?2 and Blnk appear to be unaffected. To test in vivo HS1 function, we injected MEC1 cells silenced for HS1 subcutaneously in RAG2-/-?c-/- mice and observed that cells lacking HS1 spread and localized preferentially in the BM and in the lymph nodes as compared to control cells. To further investigate its role played in the onset and progression of CLL, we crossed HS1 KO mice with E�-TCL1 transgenic animals (Bichi R et al, PNAS 2002). The double HS1 KO/TCL-1 interestingly show a preferential accumulation of monoclonal CD19+CD5+ cells, beside all other lymphoid organs, in the bone marrow where they are usually observed at low frequencies in the E�-TCL1 mouse. These findings suggest that HS1 has a crucial role in controlling cell migration and tissue invasion by leukemic B cells, likely through its involvement in cytoskeleton organization. This points at HS1 as a target for development of novel cancer treatments, aiming at interfering with the lymphoid tissue infiltration and invasion which is characteristic of the disease.

description: We describe a hybrid bi-level decomposition scheme that addresses the challenge of solving a large-scale two-stage stochastic programming problem with mixed-integer recourse, which results from a multi-scale capacity planning problem as described in part I of this paper series. The decomposition scheme combines bi-level decomposition with Ben- ders decomposition, and relies on additional strengthening cuts from a Lagrangean-type relaxation and subset-type cuts from structure in the linking constraints between investment and operational variables. The application of the scheme with a parallel implementation to an industrial case study reduces the computational time by two orders of magnitude when compared with the time required for the solution of the full-space model.

description: We study the impact of the nucleon-$α$ P-wave resonances on neutrino-pair bremsstrahlung. Because of the non-central spin-orbit interaction, these resonances lead to an enhanced contribution to the nucleon spin structure factor for temperatures $T \lesssim 4$ MeV. If the $α$-particle fraction is significant and the temperature is in this range, this contribution is competitive with neutron-neutron bremsstrahlung. This may be relevant for neutrino production in core-collapse supernovae or other dense astrophysical environments. Similar enhancements are expected for resonant non-central nucleon-nucleus interactions.
