description: We study the baryonic charmonium decays of B mesons, B+ to etac K+ and B+ to J/psi K+, where the etac and J/psi subsequently decay into a p pbar or Lambda Lambdabar pair. We measure the J/psi to p pbar, Lambda Lambdabar anisotropy parameters, alpha_B = -0.60 +- 0.13 +-0.14 (p pbar), -0.44 +- 0.51 +- 0.31 (Lambda Lambdabar) and compare to results from e+e- to J/psi formation experiments. We also report the first observation of etac to Lambda Lambdabar. The measured branching fraction is B(etac to Lambda Lambdabar) = (0.87 +0.24 -0.21(stat) +0.09 -0.14(syst) +- 0.27 (PDG)) x 10^-3. This study is based on a 357 fb^-1 data sample recorded on the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider.

description: The interplay between electrostatic interactions and orientational correlations is studied for a model system of charged rods positioned on a chain, using Monte Carlo simulation techniques. It is shown that the coupling brings about the notion of {\em electrostatic frustration}, which in turn results in: (i) a rich variety of novel orientational orderings such as chiral phases, and (ii) an inherently slow dynamics characterized by stretched-exponential behavior in the relaxation functions of the system.

description: We investigate the phase transition of Bose-Einstein particles with the hard-core repulsion in the grand canonical ensemble within the Van der Waals approximation. It is shown that the pressure of non-relativistic Bose-Einstein particles is mathematically equivalent to the pressure of simplified version of the statistical multifragmentation model of nuclei with the vanishing surface tension coefficient and the Fisher exponent $τ_F = \frac{5}{2}$, which for such parameters has the 1-st order phase transition. The found similarity of these equations of state allows us to show that within the present approach the high density phase of Bose-Einstein particles is a classical macro-cluster with vanishing entropy at any temperature which, similarly to the classical hard spheres, is a kind of solid state. To show this we establish new relations which allow us to identically represent the pressure of Fermi-Dirac particles in terms of pressures of Bose-Einstein particles of two sorts.

description: The irradiation represents a useful tool for determining the characteristics of defects in semiconductors as well as a method to evaluate their degradation, fact with important technological consequences. In this contribution, starting from available data on the degradation of silicon detector characteristics in radiation fields, these effects are explained in the frame of a model that supposes also the production of the SiFFCD defect due to irradiation. The displacement threshold energies - different for different crystallographic axes, considered as parameters of the model, are established and the results obtained could contribute to clarify these controversial aspects. Predictions of the degradation of electrical parameters (leakage current, effective carrier concentration and effective trapping probabilities for electrons and holes) of DOFZ silicon detectors in the hadron background of the LHC accelerator, supposing operation at -10 grdC are done. The non uniformity of the rate of production of primary defects and of complexes, as a function of depth, for incident particles with low kinetic energy was obtained by simulations in some particular and very simplifying assumptions, suggesting the possible important contribution of the low energy component of the background spectra to detector degradation.

description: Τα παράλια της Μεσογείου χαρακτηρίζονται από θερμο-μεσογειακό κλίμα, στο οποίο συχνά εμφανίζονται καταστροφικές πυρκαγιές ως συνέπεια τις καλοκαιρινής ξηρασίας και της δημιουργίας εύφλεκτης ύλης. Η συγκεκριμένη έρευνα έγινε στην περιοχή της Κασσάνδρας Χαλκιδικής όπου και η πυρκαγιά του Αυγούστου του 2006 έκαψε έκταση 71.735 στρ. Πραγματοποιήθηκαν μετρήσεις χρησιμοποιώντας την μέθοδο των σημειακών παρατηρήσεων (point counts) σε καμένες και μη καμένες εκτάσεις την πρώτη αναπαραγωγική περίοδο μετά την πυρκαγιά (άνοιξη- καλοκαίρι 2007) σε 80 δειγματοληπτικές επιφάνειες με σκοπό της εξαγωγή συμπερασμάτων για τις επιπτώσεις τις πυρκαγιάς στην αφθονία των πτηνών της περιοχής. 31 είδη πτηνών καταγράφηκαν στην περιοχή. Παρατηρήθηκε μεγαλύτερη αφθονία πτηνών και ειδών πτηνών στις καμένες εκτάσεις. Το αποτέλεσμα έρχεται σε διαφωνία με παρόμοια έρευνα σε θερμο-μεσογειακό οικοσύστημα στη Βαρκελώνη αλλά σε συμφωνία με παρόμοια έρευνα σε μεσο-μεσογειακό οικοσύστημα στη Ν.Γαλλία. Στα περισσότερα είδη πτηνών δεν παρατηρήθηκαν στατιστικώς σημαντικές διαφορές στους μέσους όρους μεταξύ καμένων και μη καμένων. Για τα 3 είδη του γένους Lanius (εντομοφάγα) παρατηρήθηκαν σημαντικά αυξημένοι μέσοι όροι στις καμένες εκτάσεις. Δεν παρατηρήθηκε η αναμενόμενη εναλλαγή ειδών ανοικτών περιοχών σε θαμνόβια ή δασόβια είδη. Οι προτάσεις που προκύπτουν είναι πως εφόσον οι πυρκαγιές δημιουργούν ένα πλούσιο μωσαϊκό ενδιαιτημάτων κρίνεται απαραίτητο με κατάλληλη διαχείριση να μιμηθούμε το αποτέλεσμά τους.
description: The coastline of the Mediterranean is characterized by thermo-Mediterranean climate and summer dryness conditions which often lead to wild fires. This thesis took place in the Kasandra peninsula of Halkidiki where a fire was sprout on August 2006. We used the point-count method in 80 sampling surfaces to census birds in the first reproductive period after fire (spring-summer 2007) in order to make inferences about the effects of fire on the abundance and richness of birds in the region. 31 species where found in the area. Bird richness and abundance was greater in the burned zone. In most species of birds there are not statistically significant differences between the observed averages of the burnt and unburned zones. Lanidae and other insectivore’s birds were found in the burned zone and the expected change from communities dominated by open-space species to communities dominated by shrub land species was not detected. As soon as the wild fires lead to a rich mosaic of habitats we should use the proper management to create the same outcomes.

description: Στην παρούσα εργασία διερευνήθηκε η ύπαρξη προβλημάτων συμφωνίας της ποικιλίας οινοποιίας ‘Ξινόμαυρο’ εμβολιασμένης στο 3309 Couderc τόσο σε συνθήκες φυτωρίου όσο και σε συνθήκες αμπελώνα. Για τις ανάγκες του πειράματος χρησιμοποιήθηκαν τα υποκείμενα 1103 Paulsen, 110 Richter και 3309 Couderc. Επίσης χρησιμοποιήθηκε ως υποκείμενο και η ποικιλία ‘Ξινόμαυρο’. Στο φυτώριο πραγματοποιήθηκε παραγωγή έρριζων εμβολιασμένων φυτών και μετρήθηκαν τα εξής μορφολογικά χαρακτηριστικά: ανάπτυξη ριζικού συστήματος, διόγκωση σημείου ένωσης εμβολιασμού, ανάπτυξη εμβολίου καθώς και οι φυσιολογικές παράμετροι: ολικοί – διαλυτοί υδατάνθρακες και άμυλο σε εμβόλιο, υποκείμενο, ένωση και ρίζες. Το πείραμα στον αμπελώνα ( ηλικίας εννέα ετών ) περιελάμβανε τη μέτρηση των παραγόντων της βλαστικής και αναπαραγωγικής αύξησης της ποικιλίας ‘Ξινόμαυρο’ εμβολιασμένης στα τέσσερα υποκείμενα. Παράλληλα έγινε χημική ανάλυση του γλεύκους. Όσον αφορά τα αποτελέσματα των έρριζων εμβολιασμένων φυτών στο φυτώριο, σε συνδυασμό με τις παρατηρήσεις στον ήδη εγκατεστημένο αμπελώνα (εννέα ετών), μας οδηγούν στο συμπέρασμα ότι η ποικιλία Ξινόμαυρο εμβολιασμένη στο 3309 Couderc αναπτύσσεται ικανοποιητικά και δεν εμφανίζει συμπτώματα ασυμφωνίας όπως αναφέρεται στην βιβλιογραφία.
description: This study was conducted to assess levels of compatibility in the nursery and the vineyard of wine variety Xinomavro grafted to 3309 Couderc rootstock. For the purpose of this study tree different rootstocks were used: 1103 Paulsen, 110 Richter, 3309 Couderc as well as Xinomavro. In the nursery, production and development of rooted graft plants took place and morphological and physiological traits were evaluated. Especially, root development, callus production at the graft union, graft development as well as total – soluble carbohydrates and starch concentration in graft, rootstock, graft union and roots were measured. The experiment in the vineyard (nine years old) included the measurement of vegetative and reproductive growth factors of wine variety Xinomavro grafted to the four rootstocks. In addition, chemical analysis of berries took place. The results of the rooted graft plants in the nursery in combination with observations during the vineyard experiment indicate that variety Xinomavro grafted to 3309 Couderc rootstock has a normal growth and does not present any incompatibility symptoms.

description: We aim to estimate if structures, such as cavities, rings, and gaps, are common in disks around VLMS and to test models of structure formation in these disks. We also aim to compare the radial extent of the gas and dust emission in disks around VLMS, which can give us insight about radial drift. We studied six disks around VLMS in the Taurus star-forming region using ALMA Band 7 ($\sim 340\,$GHz) at a resolution of $\sim0.1''$. The targets were selected because of their high disk dust content in their stellar mass regime. Our observations resolve the disk dust continuum in all disks. In addition, we detect the $^{12}$CO ($J=3-2$) emission line in all targets and $^{13}$CO ($J=3-2$) in five of the six sources. The angular resolution allows the detection of dust substructures in three out of the six disks, which we studied by using UV-modeling. Central cavities are observed in the disks around stars MHO\,6 (M5.0) and CIDA\,1 (M4.5), while we have a tentative detection of a multi-ringed disk around J0433. Single planets of masses $0.1\sim0.4\,M_{\rm{Jup}}$ would be required. The other three disks with no observed structures are the most compact and faintest in our sample. The emission of $^{12}$CO and $^{13}$CO is more extended than the dust continuum emission in all disks of our sample. When using the $^{12}$CO emission to determine the gas disk extension $R_{\rm{gas}}$, the ratio of $R_{\rm{gas}}/R_{\rm{dust}}$ in our sample varies from 2.3 to 6.0, which is consistent with models of radial drift being very efficient around VLMS in the absence of substructures. Our observations do not exclude giant planet formation on the substructures observed. A comparison of the size and luminosity of VLMS disks with their counterparts around higher mass stars shows that they follow a similar relation.

Η διαπολιτισμική εκπαίδευση θεωρείται η πλέον ενδεδειγμένη παιδαγωγική διαδικασία αφού επαναπροσδιορίζεται η θέση του διαφορετικού μαθητή στη σύγχρονη αγωγή και εκπαίδευση. Η εφαρμογή της στις χώρες της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης, στις περισσότερες τουλάχιστον, ως επίσημη εκπαιδευτική πολιτική, όπως και ο τρόπος προσαρμογής του μαθήματος των θρησκευτικών σ’ αυτή, ως αυτονόητη διαδικασία, αποτελούν παραδείγματα για τον τρόπο προσαρμογής του μαθήματος των θρησκευτικών στα Ελληνικά διαπολιτισμικά σχολεία. Είναι σαφές ότι το μάθημα των θρησκευτικών στη διαπολιτισμική εκπαίδευση στο ελληνικό σχολείο οφείλει, χωρίς να παραβλέπει τον πολιτισμό που φέρει ο αλλοεθνής μαθητής, να διαπνέεται από το πνεύμα της ελληνορθόδοξης παράδοσης.
description: In this Master, was developed the relation of religious education with intercultural education. The intercultural education is considered as the most advisable pedagogic process, because is re-defined the place of different student in the modern education. Her application in the countries of European Union, as official education policy, as the way of adaption of religious education in this, as obvious process, they constitute examples for the way of adaption of religious education in the Hellenic intercultural schools. It is clear that, religious education in intercultural education owes, without it overlooks the “foreign” culture, to be inspired by Hellenic - Orthodox tradition.

description: We present the results of a multiwavelength study of nearby galaxies, aimed at understanding the relation between the ultraviolet and far-infrared emission in star-forming galaxies. The dataset comprises new ultraviolet (from HST/STIS), ground-based Halpha, and radio continuum observations, together with archival infrared data (from IRAS and ISO). The local galaxies are used as benchmarks for comparison of the infrared-to-ultraviolet properties with two populations of high-redshift galaxies: the sub-millimeter star-forming galaxies detected by SCUBA and the ultraviolet-selected Lyman Break galaxies. In addition, the long wavelength baseline covered by the present data enables us to compare the star formation rates (SFRs) derived from the observed ultraviolet, Halpha, infrared, and radio luminosities, and to gauge the impact of dust opacity in the local galaxies. We also derive a new calibration for the non-thermal part of the radio SFR estimator, based on the comparison of 1.4 GHz measurements with a new estimator of the bolometric luminosity of the star forming regions. We find that more actively star forming galaxies show higher dust opacities, in line with previous results. We find that the local star-forming galaxies have lower F(205um)/F(UV) ratio, by two-three orders of magnitude than the submillimeter-selected galaxies, and may have similar or somewhat higher F(205um)/F(UV) than Lyman Break Galaxies. The F(205um)/F(UV) ratio of the local galaxy population may be influenced by the cool dust emission in the far-infrared heated by non-ionizing stellar populations, which may be reduced or absent in the LBGs.

The role of data interchange standards in satisfying recordkeeping functional requirements in electronic message handling systems
Creators: name: Rajotte, Joanne Therese
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This thesis examines the role of data interchange standards in helping to meet archival and records management requirements in two types of electronic message handling systems, electronic mail and electronic data interchange. A detailed study of two data interchange standards, the X.400 Message Handling standard and the X12 Electronic Data Interchange Format standard, is conducted. These two standards facilitate the reliable transmission and communication of interpersonal messages between individuals, and information relating to business transactions between computers. These standards are closely examined to determine to what extent they are able to satisfy the functional requirements for recordkeeping identified as part of a project conducted at the University of Pittsburgh. The use of standards to satisfy functional requirements is one of the tactics identified by the Pittsburgh team. The others are policy development, system design, and system requirements' implementation. An electronic mail system in use at the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia, and an electronic data interchange system planned for implementation at the same organization are examined to determine to what extent these systems are able to satisfy functional requirements. Recommendations as to the use of other tactics to satisfy requirements are made. This study determines that the standards examined are restricted to satisfying requirements relating to the capture, maintenance, and usability of records. They are limited to ensuring that messages are reliably transmitted, and that the identities of users are verified as correct. They are unable to ensure the authentication, reliability, or completeness of records as these terms are understood in archival theory. The use by the Pittsburgh team of the terms authentic, reliable, and complete is also shown as being problematic. In the Pittsburgh schema, these terms relate to the capacity of systems to ensure the safe flow of messages between users, not the authenticity of the messages themselves.

description: This white paper responds to the Voyage 2050 Call for White Papers from the Science Programme of the European Space Agency (ESA) and argues that education, communication and public engagement (hereafter EPE) should have priority in the Voyage 2050 planning cycle. The ESA Science’s Voyage 2050 missions promise insights into the big existential questions of our era: the prevalence of life in the universe; the nature of space and time; and the intertwined nature of matter, energy and gravity. It is likely that innovations in the acquisition, handling and processing of vast data sets will drive these themes to scientific maturity in the next decades. They offer us a timely opportunity to underline the relevance of space sciences to everyday life and thinking. More generally, space science is maturing to the point where it contributes to every major aspect of our cultural discourse. Citizens need information, resources and opportunities to actively participate in that discourse, and ESA Science can provide these. This white paper is a modest attempt to support ESA Science to better engage with society. We believe ESA’s Voyage 2050 programme teams have a responsibility to represent Europe’s social and cultural diversity, and our suggestions are conceived in that spirit: to support ESA Science’s complex task of engaging a hugely diverse audience in the complex issues of planning, building and operating fascinating space missions.

Επιπροσθέτως, μελετήθηκαν: η επίδραση της διάγνωσης της δυσλεξίας στη συμπεριφορά των μητέρων, οι αντιδράσεις των μητέρων πριν και μετά τη διάγνωση της δυσλεξίας, η αιτιολόγηση των προβλημάτων συμπεριφοράς των παιδιών από τις μητέρες, η μορφή παρέμβασης που εφαρμόστηκε καθώς και η αποτελεσματικότητά της. Τέλος, διερευνήθηκε εάν οι μητέρες συνεργάζονται με τους εκπαιδευτικούς των παιδιών τους και πώς χαρακτηρίζουν τη συνεργασία αυτή. Δείγμα της έρευνας αποτέλεσαν 20 μητέρες. Τα ερευνητικά δεδομένα κατέδειξαν πως σύμφωνα με τις μητέρες η δυσλεξία συνυπάρχει με τα προβλήματα συμπεριφοράς κυρίως το άγχος και την επιθετικότητα. Η διάγνωση της δυσλεξίας επηρεάζει τις αντιδράσεις των μητέρων καθώς επίσης και τους τρόπους αντιμετώπισης που υιοθετούν οι μητέρες προς τα παιδιά τους. Σύμφωνα με τα λεγόμενα των μητέρων, η παράλληλη εφαρμογή μορφών παρέμβασης, οι οποίες αποσκοπούν τόσο στη γνωστική ανάπτυξη του παιδιού όσο και στην ψυχοκοινωνική του στήριξη έχουν θετικότερα αποτελέσματα από την εφαρμογή ειδικών προγραμμάτων παρέμβασης μόνο στο μαθησιακό τομέα. Τέλος, η συνεργασία μεταξύ γονέων (μητέρων) και εκπαιδευτικών χαρακτηρίζεται από τις μητέρες ως ελλιπής και επιφανειακή.
description: The basic aim of this essay was the investigation of mothers’ opinions with children with dyslexia for the existence of behavioral problems in their children. Besides, it was studied: the effect of diagnosis of dyslexia in the behavior of mothers, the reactions of mothers before and afterwards the diagnosis of dyslexia, the justification of children’s behavioural problems from the mothers, the forms of intervention that were applied as well as her effectiveness. Finally, it was investigated if the mothers collaborate with the teachers of their children and how they characterize this collaboration. Sample of research was 20 mothers. The inquiring data showed that according to the mothers the dyslexia coexists with the behavioural problems mainly the stress and the aggressiveness. The diagnosis of dyslexia influences the reactions of mothers as well as the ways of confrontation that adopt the mothers to their children. According to what mothers said, the parallel application of forms of intervention, that aims so much in the child’s cognitive growth what in his psychological support they have more positive results than the application of special programs of intervention only in the training sector. Finally, the collaboration between parents (mothers) and teachers is characterized by the mothers as insufficient and superficial.

description: We propose a hybrid quantum computing scheme where qubit degrees of freedom for computation are combined with quantum continuous variables for communication. In particular, universal two-qubit gates can be implemented deterministically through qubit-qubit communication, mediated by a continuous-variable bus mode ("qubus"), without direct interaction between the qubits and without any measurement of the qubus. The key ingredients are controlled rotations of the qubus and unconditional qubus displacements. The controlled rotations are realizable through typical atom-light interactions in quantum optics. For such interactions, our scheme is universal and works in any regime, including the limits of weak and strong nonlinearities.

Αναλύθηκε η βιβλιογραφία σχετική με την άρδευση με επεξεργασμένα λύματα και η τεχνική του xeriscaping. Πραγματοποιήθηκε πείραμα σε ιδιωτική φυτωριακή έκταση και στατιστική επεξεργασία των αποτελεσμάτων των μετρήσεων. Από αυτήν προέκυψε ότι τα είδη Cupressus sempervirens L. και Santolina virens Mill., μπορούν να αρδευτούν με το συγκεκριμένο τύπο νερού και ότι η ποιότητα του νερού παίζει σημαντικό ρόλο στην επιβίωση των υπό εξέταση φυτών.
description: The aim of the paper was the examination of the possibility of irrigating self grown ornamental plants, which are able to be used with the xeriscaping technique, with water that occurs from the biological treatment of textile coloring industry, in order to contribute to the economization of the water and the smoothening of the global water problem. The references to the irrigation with wastewater were analyzed along with the references to the xeriscaping technique. An experiment was undertaken in a private nursery area and the results of the measurements were analyzed statistically. From the statistic analysis resulted that only the species of Cupressus sempervirens L. and Santolina virens Mill. can be irrigated with this specific type of water and also that the quality of the water plays a very important role for the survival of the examined plants.

description: Strong acousto-optic interaction in silicon-based waveguides generally requires releasing of the silicon core to avoid mechanical leakage into the underlying silica substrate. This complicates fabrication, limits thermalization, reduces the mechanical robustness and hinders large area optomechanical devices on a single chip. Here, we overcome this limitation by employing vertical photonic-phononic engineering. Specifically, the insertion of a thick silicon nitride layer between the silicon guiding core and the silica substrate contributes to reduce GHz-frequencies phonon leakage enabling large values of the Brillouin gain in an unreleased platform. We get values of the Brillouin gain around 300 (Wm)$^{-1}$ for different configurations, which could be further increased by operation at cryogenic temperatures. These values should enable to observe Brillouin-related phenomena in cm-scale waveguides or in more compact ring resonators. This finding could pave the way towards large-area unreleased cavity and waveguide optomechanics on silicon chips.

description: We propose a new data analyzing scheme, the method of minimum entropy analysis (MEA), in this paper. New MEA provides a quantitative criterion to select relevant variables for modeling the physical system interested. Such method can be easily extended to various geophysical/geological data analysis, where many relevant or irrelevant available measurements may obscure the understanding of the highly complicated physical system like the triggering of debris-flows. After demonstrating and testing the MEA method, we apply this method to a dataset of debris-flow occurrences in Taiwan and successfully find out three relevant variables, i.e. the hydrological form factor, numbers and areas of landslides, to the triggering of observed debris-flow events due to the 1996 Typhoon Herb.

description: This thesis investigates using carbon dioxide (CO2) as a feedstock for producing acetic acid, a bulk chemical that is currently produced using fossil fuels resources. Researchers have explored metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as catalysts for chemical reactions due to their desirable properties including high surface area and dispersion of active metal sites. Here, we have synthesised catalysts derived from MOFs which contain active cobalt and nickel metals. These catalysts have successfully been used to directly convert CO2 into acetic acid and open up a greener synthetic pathway for the production of this important chemical used in several industries.

description: Τα push συστήματα δεν είναι κατάλληλα για εφαρμογές με άγνωστη προτεραιότητα, δηλαδή με δυναμικά client-demands. Αυτή η εργασία προτείνει ένα προσαρμοστικό Push-based σύστημα. Επίσης, θεωρεί ότι η χρησιμοποίηση του μανθάνοντος αυτόματου στον broadcast-server παρέχει προσαρμοστικότητα σε ένα ήδη υπάρχον push-system διατηρόντας παράλληλα την υπολογιστική πολυπλοκότητα. Χρησιμοποιώντας όμως ένα απλό σύστημα feedback απο τους clients, το αυτόματο συνεχώς προσαρμόζεται στα client-demands και έτσι απεικονίζεται ο συνολικός πληθυσμός του κάθε data-item. Τα αποτελέσματα της προσομοίωσης που παρουσιάζονται αποδεικνύουν την ανώτερη απόδοση της προτεινόμενης μεθόδου σε περιβάλλοντα με άγνωστη προτεραιότητα, δηλαδή με δυναμικά client-demands.
description: Push systems are not suitable for applications with a priori unknown, dynamic client demands. This paper proposes an adaptive push-based system. It suggests the use of a learning automaton at the broadcast server to provide adaptivity to an existing push system while maintaining its computational complexity. Using simple feedback from the clients, the automaton continuously adapts to the client population demands so as to reflect the overall popularity of each data item. Simulation results are presented, that reveal the superior performance of the proposed approach in environments with a priori unknown, dynamic client demands.

description: Αντικείμενο της παρούσας εργασίας αποτελεί η μελέτη των λογοτεχνικών προτύπων, τα οποία ακολούθησε ο Απουλήιος, για να σκιαγραφήσει ορισμένους γυναικείους χαρακτήρες στις Μεταμορφώσεις του, καθώς και η λειτουργία των γυναικείων αυτών προσώπων στην πλοκή του μυθιστορήματος. Ο συγγραφέας στηριζόμενος σε ένα ελληνικό πρότυπο χρησιμοποίησε την πλούσια προγενέστερή του λογοτεχνική παράδοση, ελληνική και λατινική, το έπος, την τραγωδία, την κωμωδία, την ελεγεία και το ελληνικό μυθιστόρημα, για να συνθέσει τις μυθιστορηματικές ηρωίδες. Ο χειρισμός αυτού του υλικού υπήρξε πρωτότυπος, καθώς ο Απουλήιος με το να επεκτείνει και να συγχέει τα όρια μεταξύ των λογοτεχνικών ειδών τα ξεπερνά και τα ενσωματώνει δημιουργικά στο μυθιστορηματικό είδος. Ταυτόχρονα, οι γυναικείες μορφές λειτουργούν ως αντικατοπτρισμός της μεταμόρφωσης του ήρωα, του Λούκιου, καθώς ο χαρακτήρας τους μεταλλάσσεται στην πορεία του ρόλου τους με τη βοήθεια της εναλλαγής των λογοτεχνικών συμβάσεων. Η μόνη που εξαιρείται από αυτόν τον κύκλο των αλλαγών είναι η θεά Ίσις, η οποία και απελευθερώνει τον ήρωα από τη ζωώδη μορφή του. Είναι συγχρόνως και η μοναδική θηλυκή persona του έργου, η οποία ξεφεύγει από τις λογοτεχνικές νόρμες της προηγούμενης παράδοσης. Η επιφάνειά της είναι και αυτή που μετουσιώνει τα προηγηθέντα λογοτεχνικά πρότυπα σε στοιχεία που συνθέτουν ένα γνήσιο λατινικό μυθιστόρημα της εποχής του Απουλήιου, στο οποίο όμως διακρίνονται έντονα τα νεωτερικά χαρακτηριστικά καθιστώντας το εξίσου σύγχρονο και για την εποχή μας.
description: The subject of this essay involves the study of literary models adopted by Apuleius, so as to delineate certain female characters in his Metamorphoses, as well as the function of these female personas in the plot of the novel. The author relying on a Greek model used his previous literary tradition, Greek and Latin, the epic, the tragedy, the comedy, the elegy and the Greek novel in order to compose his fictional heroines. The manipulation of this material has been original, since by extending and confusing the boundaries among literary genres, Apuleius in effect transcends and integrates them creatively into the fictional genre. At the same time, the female figures function as a reflection of the hero’s metamorphosis, that of Lucius, as their character transforms in the course of their role through the interchange of literary conventions. The only one excluded from this cycle of changes is Goddess Isis, who indeed redeems the hero from his animal form. She is at the same time the only female persona of the novel that eludes the literary norms of the previous tradition. It is her appearance that transforms the previous literary models into elements composing a genuine Latin novel of Apuleius’s era, whose prevailing modernistic features nevertheless render it equally contemporary even in our time.

description: A new field electron emission (FE) mechanism, which includes Coulomb blockade and quantum confinement effects, is revealed for heterostructured emitters composed of quantum dots and nanowires self-assembled at diamond nanotips. The total energy distributions of the emitted electrons show multiple peaks attributed to the discrete electronic states of the quantum-confined emitter with the corresponding energy levels oscillating as a function of the applied voltage due to the Coulomb blockade. The FE current-voltage characteristics exhibit a modified Coulomb staircase with additional steps becoming more pronounced with increasing voltage. The experimentally observed behavior is consistent with numerical simulations based on the model of Coulomb blockade in quantum dots in combination with the theory of FE from sharp tips.

description: Το μεγαλύτερο πρακτικό ενδιαφέρον για την αρχή διάκρισης των εξουσιών εντοπίζεται σήμερα στη διάκριση της δικαστικής εξουσίας με τη νομοθετική και την εκτελεστική. Η κυριότερη έκφανσή της εκδηλώνεται όταν ο νομοθέτης, ρυθμίζοντας μία έννομη σχέση καταργεί είτε τελεσίδικες ή αμετάκλητες δικαστικές αποφάσεις, οπότε θίγεται και το δεδικασμένο, είτε εκκρεμείς ενώπιον της δικαιοσύνης σχετικές δίκες. Στόχος της παρούσας εργασίας είναι η μελέτη της πρόσληψης της αρχής διάκρισης των εξουσιών από τα ελληνικά δικαστήρια, μέσα από τα κριτήρια που θέτουν για τη συνταγματικότητα της κατά τα ανωτέρω νομοθετικής παρέμβασης στα έργα της δικαστικής εξουσίας. Ερευνάται η αρχή διάκρισης των εξουσιών στην ελληνική νομολογία είτε όταν χρησιμοποιείται ως αυτοτελές κριτήριο της συνταγματικότητας της νομοθετικής παρέμβασης είτε όταν επηρεάζει ή συνδέεται εννοιολογικά με τα λοιπά κριτήρια. Επιπλέον, ενδιαφέρει η συγκριτική ανάλυση της προσέγγισης της αρχής από τα δύο ανώτατα δικαστήρια της Ελλάδας, μέσα από την κατηγοριοποίηση των νομολογιακών λύσεων.
description: The biggest practical effect to the principle of separation of powers is found today in the separation of the juridicial power with the legislative and the executive one. Its greatest expression is located when the legislator, regulating a legal relation, negates final or irrevocable juridicial decisions, thereby affecting the precedent, or negates pending legal cases. The aim of this paper is to study how the greek courts apprehend the principle of separation of powers, within the criteria set for the constitutionality of these legislative interventions in the works of the juridicial power. We investigate the principle of separation of powers in the greek case-law, even when it is used as an independent criterion of the constitutionality of the legislative intervention, or when it affects or is linked with the other criterias. Futhermore, we are interested in a comparative analysis of the approach of this principle by the two supreme courts in Greece, through the classification of the jurisprudential solutions.

description: Context: We present COSTA (COld STream finder Algorithm), a novel algorithm to search for cold kinematical substructures in the phase space of planetary nebulae (PNe) and globular clusters (GCs) in the halo of massive galaxies and intracluster regions. Aims: COSTA aims at detecting small sized, low velocity dispersion streams, as the ones produced in recent interactions of dwarf galaxies with the halo of more massive galaxies, including the ones sitting in the central region of rich galaxy clusters. Methods: COSTA is based on a deep friend-of-friend procedure that isolates groups of N particles with small velocity dispersion (between 10 kms and $\sim$ 100 kms), using an iterative (n) sigma-clipping over a defined number of (k) neighbor particles. The algorithm has three parameters (k-n-N), plus a velocity dispersion cut-off, which defines the "coldness" of the stream, that are set using Montecarlo realizations of the sample under exam. Results: In this paper, we show the ability of COSTA to recover simulated streams on mock data-sets of discrete kinematical tracers with different sizes and measurement errors, from publicly available hydrodynamical simulations. We also show the best algorithm set-up for a realistic case of stream finding in the core of the Fornax cluster, for future applications of COSTA to real populations of PNe and GCs. Conclusions: COSTA can be generalized to all problems of finding small substructures in the phase space of a limited sample of discrete tracers, provided that the algorithm is trained on realistic mock observations reproducing the specific dataset under exam.

Azimuthal instability of the radial thermocapillary flow around a hot bead trapped at the water-air interface

description: We investigate the radial thermocapillary flow driven by a laser-heated microbead in partial wetting at the water-air interface. Particular attention is paid to the evolution of the convective flow patterns surrounding the hot sphere as the latter is increasingly heated. The flow morphology is nearly axisymmetric at low laser power P. Increasing P leads to symmetry breaking with the onset of counter-rotating vortex pairs. The boundary condition at the interface, close to no-slip in the low-P regime, turns about stress-free between the vortex pairs in the high-P regime. These observations strongly support the view that surface-active impurities are inevitably adsorbed on the water surface where they form an elastic layer. The onset of vortex pairs is the signature of a hydrodynamic instability in the layer response to the centrifugal forced flow. Interestingly, our study paves the way for the design of active colloids able to achieve high-speed self-propulsion via vortex pair generation at a liquid interface.
