description: We present a study of the distribution of [O III] $λ$5007 and [O II] $λ$3727 emission in the Narrow Line Region (NLR) of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4151. While the NLR of NGC 4151 exhibits an overall structure consistent with the unified model of Seyfert galaxies, narrow-band [O III] and [O II] images obtained with the Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 aboard the Hubble Space Telescope reveal significant emission from outside the the emission-line bi-cone. The [O III]/[O II] ratios are lower in these regions, consistent with a weaker ionizing flux. We performed a photoionization modeling analysis of the emission-line gas within a series of annuli, centered on the the central continuum source, with inner radii from 13 to 90 pc. The gas is ionized by radiation that has been attenuated by a relatively highly-ionized absorber (HABS), which completely covers the central source, and a lower-ionization absorber (LABS), which has a covering factor ranging from 0 to 1. We found that the [O III]/[O II] ratios are well fit by assuming that, within each segment of an annulus, some fraction of the NLR gas is completely within the shadow of LABS, while the rest is irradiated by the continuum filtered only by HABS. This suggests that the structure of the NLR is due to filtering of the ionizing radiation by ionized gas, consistent with disk-wind models. One possible scenario is that the low-ionization absorbers are dense knots of gas swept up by a wind.

title:  La psicoanalisi ontologica ovvero «Che cosa vuoi essere da grande?»
Creators: name: Ogden  ,  Thomas H.
Publisher: name: Roma TrE-Press
Year: 2021

description: L’autore discute le differenze tra quella che chiama psicoanalisi epistemologica (avente a che fare con il conoscere e il comprendere), di cui Freud e Klein sono i maggiori esponenti, e la psicoanalisi ontologica (avente a che fare con l’essere e il divenire), di cui Winnicott e Bion sono i principali fautori. Winnicott sposta il centro della psicoanalisi dal significato simbolico del gioco all’esperienza del giocare; Bion sposta l’attenzione dal significato simbolico dei sogni all’esperienza del sognare in tutte le sue forme. La psicoanalisi epistemologica riguarda principalmente il lavoro per giungere alla comprensione del significato inconscio; al contrario, l’obiettivo della psicoanalisi ontologica è quello di consentire al paziente l’esperienza di scoprire in maniera creativa il significato per se stesso e, in quello stato dell’essere, divenire vitale in modo più compiuto.

The polarized NLO spectroscopies include ultrafast pump-probe photomodulation, two-photon absorption, and electroabsorption. For completeness we also measured the linear absorption and photoluminescence spectra. We found that the primary photoexcitations in polyfluorene are singlet excitons.

The velocity of the "bullet" subcluster has been measured by X-ray emission from the shock front, and the masses and separation of the main and sub-clusters have been measured by gravitational lensing. The velocity with gravity alone is calculated in a variety of models of the initial conditions, mass distribution and accretion history; it is much higher than expected, by at least 2.4 sigma. The probability of so large a subcluster velocity in cosmological simulations is

description: In this paper we present the case for including keystroke dynamics in lifelogging. We describe how we have used a simple keystroke logging application called Loggerman, to create a dataset of longitudinal keystroke timing data spanning a period of more than 6 months for 4 participants. We perform a detailed analysis of this data by examining the timing information associated with bigrams or pairs of adjacently-typed alphabetic characters. We show how there is very little day-on-day variation of the keystroke timing among the top-200 bigrams for some participants and for others there is a lot and this correlates with the amount of typing each would do on a daily basis. We explore how daily variations could correlate with sleep score from the previous night but find no significant relation-ship between the two. Finally we describe the public release of this data as well including as a series of pointers for future work including correlating keystroke dynamics with mood and fatigue during the day.

description: CS is among the most abundant gas-phase S-bearing molecules in cold dark molecular clouds. It is easily observable with several transitions in the millimeter wavelength range, and has been widely used as a tracer of the gas density in the interstellar medium in our Galaxy and external galaxies. Chemical models fail to account for the observed CS abundances when assuming the cosmic value for the elemental abundance of sulfur. The CS+O -> CO + S reaction has been proposed as a relevant CS destruction mechanism at low temperatures, and could explain the discrepancy between models and observations. Its reaction rate has been experimentally measured at temperatures of 150-400 K, but the extrapolation to lower temperatures is doubtful. Here we calculate the CS+O reaction rate at temperatures <150 K which are prevailing in the interstellar medium. We performed ab initio calculations to obtain the three lowest PES of the CS+O system. These PESs are used to study the reaction dynamics, using several methods to eventually calculate the CS+O thermal reaction rates. We compare the results of our theoretical calculations for 150-400 K with those obtained in the laboratory. Our detailed theoretical study on the CS+O reaction, which is in agreement with the experimental data obtained at 150-400 K, demonstrates the reliability of our approach. After a careful analysis at lower temperatures, we find that the rate constant at 10 K is negligible, which is consistent with the extrapolation of experimental data using the Arrhenius expression. We use the updated chemical network to model the sulfur chemistry in TMC1 based on molecular abundances determined from GEMS project observations. In our model, we take into account the expected decrease of the cosmic ray ionization rate along the cloud. The abundance of CS is still overestimated when assuming the cosmic value for the sulfur abundance.

description: The first work of Dyson relating to random matrix theory, "The dynamics of a disordered linear chain", is reviewed. Contained in this work is an exact solution of a so-called Type I chain in the case of the disorder variables being given by a gamma distribution. The exact solution exhibits a singularity in the density of states about the origin, which has since been shown to be universal for one-dimensional tight binding models with off diagonal disorder. We discuss this context and also point out some universal features of the weak disorder expansion of the exact solution near the band edge. Further, a link between the exact solution, and a tridiagonal formalism of anti symmetric Gaussian $β$-ensembles with $β$ proportional to $1/N$, is made.

Broadband X-ray Spectra of GX 339-4 and the Geometry of Accreting Black Holes in the Hard State

description: A major question in the study of black hole binaries involves our understanding of the accretion geometry when the sources are in the hard state. In this state, the X-ray energy spectrum is dominated by a hard power-law component and radio observations indicate the presence of a steady and powerful compact jet. Although the common hard state picture is that the accretion disk is truncated, perhaps at hundreds of gravitational radii from the black hole, recent results for the recurrent transient GX 339-4 by Miller and co-workers show evidence for optically thick material very close to the black hole's innermost stable circular orbit. That work focused on an observation of GX 339-4 at a luminosity of about 5% of the Eddington limit and used parameters from a relativistic reflection model and the presence of a soft, thermal component as diagnostics. In this work, we use similar diagnostics, but extend the study to lower luminosities (2.3% and 0.8% Ledd) using Swift and RXTE observations of GX 339-4. We detect a thermal component with an inner disk temperature of ~0.2 keV at 2.3% Ledd. We detect broad features due to iron Kalpha that are likely related to reflection of hard X-rays off the optically thick material. If these features are broadened by relativistic effects, they indicate that optically thick material resides within 10 Rg down to 0.8% Ledd, and the measurements are consistent with the inner radius of the disk remaining at ~4 Rg down to this level. However, we also discuss an alternative model for the broadening, and we note that the evolution of the thermal component is not entirely consistent with the constant inner radius interpretation. Finally, we discuss the results in terms of recent theoretical work on the possibility that material may condense to maintain an inner optically thick disk.

description: In order to satisfy the equivalence principle, any non-conventional mechanism proposed to gravitationally explain the Pioneer anomaly, in the form in which it is presently known from the so-far analyzed Pioneer 10/11 data, cannot leave out of consideration its impact on the motion of the planets of the Solar System as well, especially those orbiting in the regions in which the anomalous behavior of the Pioneer probes manifested itself. In this paper we, first, discuss the residuals of the right ascension αand declination δof Uranus, Neptune and Pluto obtained by processing various data sets with different, well established dynamical theories (JPL DE, IAA EPM, VSOP). Second, we use the latest determinations of the perihelion secular advances of some planets in order to put on the test two gravitational mechanisms recently proposed to accommodate the Pioneer anomaly based on two models of modified gravity. Finally, we adopt the ranging data to Voyager 2 when it encountered Uranus and Neptune to perform a further, independent test of the hypothesis that a Pioneer-like acceleration can also affect the motion of the outer planets of the Solar System. The obtained answers are negative.

description: The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of explicit reading comprehension strategies versus close reading strategies for aiding reading comprehension of similar historical fiction texts. The measurement tools were researcher-created assessments. The study involved a pre-experimental design with a convenience sample of a group of eight fifth grade students with specific learning disabilities that served as their own controls. The results of both assessments showed that there were no significant differences between the mean reading comprehension scores under the explicit (Mean = 66.63, SD = 6.41) and closed (Mean = 66.88, SD = 13.85) [t(7) = 0.06, p > .05] conditions. Implications and recommendations for future are discussed throughout the study.

description: We investigate heat circulators where a phase coherent region is contacted by three leads that are either normal- or superconducting. A magnetic field, and potentially the superconducting phases, allow to control the preferential direction of the heat flow between the three-different temperature-biased contacts. The main goal of this study is to analyze the requirements for heat circulation in non-ideal devices, in particular focusing on sample-to-sample variations. Quite generally, we find that the circulation performance of the devices is good as long as only a few transport channels are involved. We compare the performance of circulators with normalconducting contacts to those with superconducting contacts and find that the circulation coefficient are essentially unchanged.

description: New NMR experiments reveal the origin of the "pseudocoherence" that leads to long tails in some Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) sequences in contrast with the decay of a standard Hahn echo. We showed in [M.B Franzoni and P.R. Levstein, Phys. Rev. B 72, 235410 (2005)] that under certain conditions these CPMG sequences become spoiled by stimulated echoes. The presence of these echoes evidences that the long tails arise on the storage of magnetization in the direction of the external magnetic field (z-polarization), involving spin-lattice relaxation times of several seconds. Hole burning experiments confirm the presence of a highly inhomogeneous line and show that the flip-flop processes are able to homogenize the line in times agreeing with those obtained through a Hahn echo sequence. As expected, the decay of the stimulated echoes is not sensitive to the quenching of the dipolar interaction through an MREV16 sequence, while the Hahn echo decay increases by a factor of 20. CPMG sequences with hard pulses and different temporal windows clearly show the relevance of the dipolar interaction in between the pulses for the generation of the long tails. In particular, the more time the flip-flop is effective (longer interpulse separation), the shorter are the characteristic times of the long tails.

An inverse scattering series method for attenuating elastic multiples from multicomponent land and ocean bottom seismic data
Creators: name: Matson, Kenneth Howell
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: A method exists for marine seismic data which removes all orders of free surface multiples and suppresses all orders of internal multiples while leaving primaries intact. This method is based on the inverse scattering series and makes no assumptions about the subsurface earth model. The marine algorithm assumes that the sources and receivers are located in the water column. In the context of land and ocean bottom data, the sources and receivers are located on or in an elastic medium. This opens up the possibility of recording multicomponent seismic data. Because both compressional (P) and shear (S) primaries are recorded in multicomponent data, it has the potential for providing a more complete picture of the subsurface. Coupled with the benefits of the P and S primaries are a complex set of elastic free surface and internal multiples. In this thesis, I develop an inverse scattering series method to attenuate these elastic multiples from multicomponent land and ocean bottom data. For land data, this method removes elastic free surface multiples. For ocean bottom data, multiples associated with the top and bottom of the water column are removed. Internal multiples are strongly attenuated for both data types. In common with the marine formulation, this method makes no assumptions about the earth below the sources and receivers, and does not affect primaries. The latter property is important for amplitude variation with offset analysis (AVO). The theory for multiple attentuation requires four component (two source, two receiver) data, a known near surface or water bottom, near offsets, and a known source wavelet. Tests on synthetic data indicate that this method is still effective using data with less than four components and is robust with respect to errors in estimating the near surface or ocean bottom properties.

description: Membranes containing a wide variety of ternary mixtures of high chain-melting temperature lipids, low chain-melting temperature lipids, and cholesterol undergo lateral phase separartion into coexisting liquid phases at a miscibility transition. When membranes are prepared from a ternary lipid mixture at a critical composition, they pass through a miscibility critical point at the transition temperature. Since the critical temperature is typically on the order of room temperature, membranes provide an unusual opportunity in which to perform a quantitative study of biophysical systems that exhibit critical phenomena in the two-dimensional Ising universality class. As a critical point is approached from either high or low temperature, the scale of fluctuations in lipid composition, set by the correlation length, diverges. In addition, as a critical point is approached from low temperature, the line tension between coexisting phases decreases to zero. Here we quantitatively evaluate the temperature dependence of line tension between liquid domains and of fluctuation correlation lengths in lipid membranes in order to extract a critical exponent, nu. We obtain nu=1.2 plus or minus 0.2, consistent with the Ising model prediction nu=1. We also evaluate the probability distributions of pixel intensities in fluoresence images of membranes. From the temperature dependence of these distributions above the critical temperature, we extract an independent critical exponent beta=0.124 plus or minus 0.03 which is consistent with the Ising prediction of beta=1/8.

description: We present an analysis of Chandra ACIS observations of the field of TeV J2032+4130, the first unidentified TeV source, detected serendipitously by HEGRA. This deep (48.7 ksec) observation of the field follows up on an earlier 5 ksec Chandra director's discretionary observation. Of the numerous point-like X-ray sources in the field, the brightest are shown to be a mixture of early and late-type stars. We find that several of the X-ray sources are transients, exhibiting rapid increases in count rates by factors 3-10, and similar in nature to the one, hard absorbed transient source located in the earlier Chandra observation of the field. None of these transient sources are likely to correspond to the TeV source. Instead, we identify a region of diffuse X-ray emission within the error circle of the TeV source and consider its plausible association.

description: We study the thermodynamic performance of the finite-time non-regenerative Stirling cycle used as a quantum heat engine. We consider specifically the case in which the working substance (WS) is a two-level system. The Stirling cycle is made of two isochoric transformations separated by a compression and an expansion stroke during which the working substance is in contact with a thermal reservoir. To describe these two strokes we derive a non-Markovian master equation which allows to study the dynamics of a driven open quantum system with arbitrary fast driving. We found that the finite-time dynamics and thermodynamics of the cycle depend non-trivially on the different time scales at play. In particular, driving the WS at a time scale comparable to the resonance time of the bath enhances the performance of the cycle and allows for an efficiency higher than the efficiency of the slow adiabatic cycle, but still below the Carnot bound. Interestingly, performance of the cycle is dependent on the compression and expansion speeds asymmetrically. This suggests new freedom in optimizing quantum heat engines. We further show that the maximum output power and the maximum efficiency can be achieved almost simultaneously, although the net extractable work declines by speeding up the drive.

description: In this paper we develop an abstract setup for hamiltonian group actions as follows: Starting with a continuous 2-cochain $ω$ on a Lie algebra $h$ with values in an $h$-module $V$, we associate subalgebras $sp(h,ω) \supeq ham(h,ω)$ of symplectic, resp., hamiltonian elements. Then $ham(h,ω)$ has a natural central extension which in turn is contained in a larger abelian extension of $sp(h,ω)$. In this setting, we study linear actions of a Lie group $G$ on $V$ which are compatible with a homomorphism $g \to ham(h,ω)$, i.e. abstract hamiltonian actions, corresponding central and abelian extensions of $G$ and momentum maps $J : g \to V$.

The size of BLRs of low luminous Active Galactic Nuclei

description: We study the size of BLRs of low luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei, also called 'dwarf AGN', defined as having ($L_{Hα}\le10^{41}{\rm erg\cdot s^{-1}}$)). We more than double the sample size analyzed previously (Wang & Zhang 2003, hereafter Paper I). In this study we first confirm our previous result that the sizes of BLRs of low luminosity AGN are larger than the ones expected from the empirical relation $R_{BLRs} - L_{Hα}$ valid for 'normal' AGN: Seyfert 1s and quasars, except for the objects with accretion rate $\dot{m_{Hα}}>10^{-5.5}$. Second, we find a positive correlation between the line width of the narrow emission line (as tracer of velocity dipersion and thus bulge and black hole mass) and the size of BLRs for both normal and low luminosity AGN. In this paper we find a non-linear dependence of the BLRs sizes of low luminosity AGN on BH masses. We also show that their sizes of BLRs are more strongly dominated by the 'specific accretion rate' $\dot{m_{Hα}}$ defined as $\dot{m_{Hα}} = L_{Hα}/L_{Edd}$, than by the masses of their cetral black holes. As an expected result, the distance of emission regions of low-ionization broad H$α$ of NGC 4395 should be consistent with the value from the empirical relation of $R_{BLRs} - L_{Hα}$, according to the high accretion rate.

description: The experimental characterization of scattering resonances in low energy collisions has proven to be a stringent test for quantum chemistry calculations. Previous measurements on the NO-H$_2$ system at energies down to $10$ cm$^{-1}$ challenged the most sophisticated calculations of potential energy surfaces available. In this report, we continue these investigations by measuring the scattering behavior of the NO-H$_2$ system in the previously unexplored $0.4 - 10$ cm$^{-1}$ region for the parity changing de-excitation channel of NO. We study state-specific inelastic collisions with both \textit{para}- and \textit{ortho}-H$_2$ in a crossed molecular beam experiment involving Stark deceleration and velocity map imaging. We are able to resolve resonance features in the measured integral and differential cross sections. Results are compared to predictions from two previously available potential energy surfaces and we are able to clearly discriminate between the two potentials. We furthermore identify the partial wave contributions to these resonances, and investigate the nature of the differences between collisions with \textit{para}- and \textit{ortho}-H$_2$. Additionally, we tune the energy spreads in the experiment to our advantage to probe scattering behavior at energies beyond our mean experimental limit.

Hierarchical Spherical Model from a Geometric Point of View

description: A continuous version of the hierarchical spherical model at dimension d=4 is investigated. Two limit distribution of the block spin variable X^γ, normalized with exponents γ=d+2 and γ=d at and above the critical temperature, are established. These results are proven by solving certain evolution equations corresponding to the renormalization group (RG) transformation of the O(N) hierarchical spin model of block size L^{d} in the limit L to 1 and N to \infty . Starting far away from the stationary Gaussian fixed point the trajectories of these dynamical system pass through two different regimes with distinguishable crossover behavior. An interpretation of this trajectories is given by the geometric theory of functions which describe precisely the motion of the Lee--Yang zeroes. The large--$N$ limit of RG transformation with L^{d} fixed equal to 2, at the criticality, has recently been investigated in both weak and strong (coupling) regimes by Watanabe \cite{W}. Although our analysis deals only with N=\infty case, it complements various aspects of that work.

description: We have studied the charged scalar perturbation around a dilaton black hole in 2 +1 dimensions. The wave equations of a massless charged scalar field is shown to be exactly solvable in terms of hypergeometric functions. The quasinormal frequencies are computed exactly. The relation between the quasinormal frequencies and the charge of the black hole, charge of the scalar and the temperature of the black hole are analyzed. The asymptotic form of the real part of the quasinormal frequencies are evaluated exactly.

Wallace Stegner and the American West
Creators: name: Page, Selina
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This thesis is a study of the revision of the Frontier Thesis of Frederick Jackson Turner offered in the novels of Wallace Stegner. The thesis adopts a cross-disciplinary approach to literature and history, in order to indicate their ideological identification within the Western American context, in the form of myth. In its reading of the differing narratives of the American West produced by Frederick Jackson Turner and Wallace Stegner, a contrast is made between the ideological consciousness as opposed to the conditional materiality of the American western historical experience.
Universality in Voltage-driven Nonequilibrium Phase Transitions

description: We consider the non-equilibrium ferromagnetic transition of a mesoscopic sample of a resistive Stoner ferromagnet coupled to two paramagnetic leads. The transition is controlled by either the lead temperature T or the transport voltage V applied between the leads. We calculate the T and V dependence of the magnetization. For systems with a flat density of states we find within mean-field theory that even at finite bias the magnetization does not depend on the position along the sample axis, although the charge density and other quantities do vary. This may be relevant for possible spintronics applications. In addition, we establish a generalized control parameter in terms of T and V which allows for a universal description of the temperature- and voltage-driven transition.

description: We apply the dynamical systems tools to study the linear dynamics of a self-interacting scalar field trapped on a DGP brane. The simplest kinds of self-interaction potentials are investigated: a) constant potential, and b) exponential potential. It is shown that the dynamics of DGP models can be very rich and complex. One of the most interesting results of this study shows that dynamical screening of the scalar field self-interaction potential, occuring within the Minkowski cosmological phase of the DGP model and mimetizing 4D phantom behaviour, is an attractor solution for a constant self-interaction potential but not for the exponential one. In the latter case gravitational screening is not even a critical point of the corresponding autonomous system of ordinary differential equations.
