description: An important future goal in exoplanetology is to detect and characterize potentially habitable planets. Using nulling interferometry, LIFE will allow us to constrain the radius and effective temperature of (terrestrial) exoplanets, as well as provide unique information about their atmospheric structure and composition. We explore the potential of LIFE in characterizing emission spectra of Earth at various stages of its evolution. We perform Bayesian retrievals on simulated spectra of 8 different scenarios, which correspond to cloud-free and cloudy spectra of four different epochs of the evolution of the Earth. Assuming a distance of 10 pc and a Sun-like host star, we simulate observations obtained with LIFE using its simulator LIFEsim, considering all major astrophysical noise sources. With the nominal spectral resolution (R=50) and signal-to-noise ratio (assumed to be S/N=10 at 11.2 $μ$m), we can identify the main spectral features of all the analyzed scenarios (most notably CO$_2$, H$_2$O, O$_3$, CH$_4$). This allows us to distinguish between inhabited and lifeless scenarios. Results suggest that particularly O$_3$ and CH$_4$ yield an improved abundance estimate by doubling the S/N from 10 to 20. We conclude that the baseline requirements for R and S/N are sufficient for LIFE to detect O$_3$ and CH$_4$ in the atmosphere of an Earth-like planet with an abundance of O$_2$ of around 2% in volume mixing ratio. This information is relevant in terms of the LIFE mission planning. We also conclude that cloud-free retrievals of cloudy planets can be used to characterize the atmospheric composition of terrestrial habitable planets, but not the thermal structure of the atmosphere. From the inter-model comparison performed, we deduce that differences in the opacity tables (caused by e.g. a different line wing treatment) may be an important source of systematic errors.

description: The ideal duration of adjuvant chemotherapy for patients with lower risk primary breast cancer is not known. Cancer and Leukemia Group B trial 40101 was conducted using a phase III factorial design to define whether six cycles of a chemotherapy regimen are superior to four cycles. We also sought to determine whether paclitaxel (T) is as efficacious as doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide (AC), but with reduced toxicity.

description: PURPOSE To explore the frequency of polypharmacy, functional and cognitive capacity among the elderly in Southern Italy. METHODS Populationbased retrospective cross-sectional study. Information were retrieved from electronic-geriatric-forms matched by record-linkage to outpatient pharmacy-records. The following domains were collected from geriatric forms: BMI, cognitive capacity (SPMSQ), functional status Barthel-index), mobility, living condition. Polypharmacy status was categorized as non-polypharmacy (0-4), polypharmacy (5-9) and excessive-polypharmacy (>10). Prevalence of all variables were stratified by age and polypharmacy group. RESULTS 88,878 old people received a geriatric assessment in the years 2013-2014. Mean age was 74.8 (±7.3) years, 56.6% females. Proportion of elderly in excessive-polypharmacy increased with age (18.9% in 65-75 age-group; 27.9% in >85). Referring to cognitive capacity, the proportion of lucid patients decreased with age (from 94.3% to 58.1%), while confused patient increased with age (from 4.7% to 30.9%). Proportion of subjects with a decline in cognitive status, functional status and mobility increased in polypharmacy and excessive polypharmacy group. CONCLUSION Polypharmacy is common in people aged 65 years and older with difficulties in activities of daily living and impaired cognition. Furthermore, its prevalence raises with increasing age. Preventive strategies such us optimization of drug regimen should be performed routinely to reduce risk of adverse-health-events.

description: The goal of this work is to search for Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) in the Galactic disc at very low latitudes with |b| $<$ 2$^\circ$. For this, we studied the five sources from the VVV near-infrared galaxy catalogue that have also WISE counterparts and present variability in the VIrac VAriable Classification Ensemble (VIVACE) catalogue. In the near-infrared colour-colour diagrams, these objects have in general redder colours compared to the rest of the sources in the field. In the mid-infrared ones, they are located in the AGN region, however there is a source that presents the highest interstellar extinction and different mid-IR colours to be a young stellar object (YSO). We also studied the source variability using two different statistical methods. The fractional variability amplitude $σ_{rms}$ ranges from 12.6 to 33.8, being in concordance with previous results found for type-1 AGNs. The slopes of the light curves are in the range (2.6$-$4.7) $\times 10^{-4}$ mag/day, also in agreement with results reported on quasars variability. The combination of all these results suggest that four galaxies are type-1 AGN candidates whereas the fifth source likely a YSO candidate.

description: We present a numerical code modeling the evolution of the medium formed in relativistic heavy ion collisions, ECHO-QGP. The code solves relativistic hydrodynamics in $(3+1)-$D, with dissipative terms included within the framework of Israel-Stewart theory; it can work both in Minkowskian and in Bjorken coordinates. Initial conditions are provided through an implementation of the Glauber model (both Optical and Monte Carlo), while freezeout and particle generation are based on the Cooper-Frye prescription. The code is validated against several test problems and shows remarkable stability and accuracy with the combination of a conservative (shock-capturing) approach and the high-order methods employed. In particular it beautifully agrees with the semi-analytic solution known as Gubser flow, both in the ideal and in the viscous Israel-Stewart case, up to very large times and without any ad hoc tuning of the algorithm.

description: Additional file 13: Fig. S4. Decision tree summarizing the variable updating scheme employed in algorithm to simulate the in silico chondrocyte. Each biological component is represented by the gene expression level (slow variable) and the protein activity potential (fast variable). Variables are updated based on the rules stored in the model’s equations. First, fast variables are updated in random order, when a pseudo-stable state is reached and that all fast variables have been updated, the next random chosen slow variable is updated. This goes on until a state that is stable both at the fast and slow level is reached. This is the final stable state. A state is considered stable if further variable updates do not bring further changes for any of the variables, with a predefined tolerance interval. The order in which variables are updated is random, thereby generating some stochasticity in the model. Within the fast (resp. slow) updating loops, variables are updated asynchronously (meaning the one after the others) according to the rules defined in the system of equations and in a random order. For some systems (i.e. set of equations) cyclic attractors may arise, meaning that the system never reaches a fixed stable state but oscillates between several states. This situation did not occur in the current study.

description: «Legitimation des Erwachsenenschutzes aus der Perspektive des dritten Mandates der Sozialen Arbeit: Artikel 12 der UN-Behindertenrechtskonvention und die unterstützte Entscheidungsfindung «supported decision-making» im Fokus»

Dem Titel entsprechend wird die Frage bearbeitet, inwiefern sich der Erwachsenenschutz (ES) aus Sicht des dritten Mandates der Sozialen Arbeit in Relation zu Art. 12 UN-BRK (gleiche Anerkennung vor dem Recht) und zum Konzept supported decision-making (SDM) legitimieren lässt. In der Schweiz können aufgrund eines von einer Behinderung abgeleiteten Schutzbedarfes behördliche Massnahmen errichtet werden, die die Handlungsfähigkeit der betroffenen Person einschränken. So empfiehlt der Ausschuss der UN-BRK, sämtliche die Handlungsfreiheit tangierenden Gesetze zu revidieren und Praktiken stellvertretenden Handelns abzuschaffen. Zur Förderung der Selbstbestimmung wird die gesetzliche Verankerung von SDM empfohlen. Die menschenrechtliche Haltung des Ausschusses ist zwar nachvollziehbar, doch werden den Ergebnissen der Arbeit zufolge zentrale Aspekte des Schutzes und der Hilfe ausser Acht gelassen, sodass dringend benötigte Hilfestellungen ausbleiben und Menschenrechte (Recht auf Leben und auf ein Höchstmass an Gesundheit) verletzt werden könnten. In dem Sinne lässt sich der ES mit Vertretungsoption und Einschränkung der Handlungsfähigkeit sowohl berufsethisch als auch menschenrechtlich legitimieren, wobei Verbesserungspotenzial besteht und bspw. die umfassende Beistandschaft abgeschafft werden könnte. SDM kann auch ohne gesetzlichen Auftrag von Beistandspersonen umgesetzt werden. Da jedoch noch keine praktikablen Lösungen vorliegen, wie beeinträchtigte Personen in Notsituationen ihre Handlungsfähigkeit selbstbestimmt wahrnehmen könnten, braucht es einen lösungsorientierten Diskurs, um die Diskrepanz zwischen Erwachsenenschutz und der Auslegung des UN-BRK-Ausschusses aufzuheben.

description: We investigate the low-energy scattering properties of two identical particles interacting via the polarized quadrupolar interaction. It is shown that a series of $s$- and $p$-wave resonances appear for identical bosons and fermions, respectively, as the strength of the quadrupolar interaction increases. Interestingly, scattering resonances also appear on the generalized scattering length corresponding to the coupling between the $s$ and $d$ waves. This observation inspires us to propose a new pseudopotential for the quadupolar interaction. We also explore the bound-state properties of two particles in both free space and harmonic traps.

description: Purpose: Lifestyle analysis is often used for primary and secondary prevention in many chronic metabolic diseases, including diabetes. Questionnaires are simple and common methods for first investigation risk of factors related to the perception of quality of life (QoL). The present study evaluates the feasibility to use questionnaires for first investigation of risk factors, and ascertain whether the results of such questionnaires are associated with the perception of QoL. Methods: Validated questionnaires from the international ACSM guidelines were used to study a cohort of 142 consecutive type 2 diabetes patients (mean age: 66.1 years ± 10.9). Results: QoL perception was normal; BMI was compatible with overweight in 79.1% of subjects, and obesity in 20.9%. Cognitive abilities decreased with age and low consumption of dried fruit and legumes. There was evidence of a statistically significant association between BMI and QoL (rho = -0.18; p = 0.03). Conclusions: Questionnaires are useful to assess lifestyle habits and highlight risks factors. Poor knowledge of patients’ own chronic disease may contribute to a negative impact in diabetes.

description: In an outstanding experimental advance in the field of two-dimensional nanomaterials, cuprous iodide (CuI) and silver iodide (AgI) monolayers have been grown via a novel graphene encapsulation synthesis approach [Adv.Mater.2022, 34, 2106922]. Inspired by this accomplishment, we conduct first-principles calculations to investigate the elastic, phononic thermal transport, electronic, and optical properties of the native CuI and AgI and Janus Cu2BrI and Ag2BrI monolayers. Electronic and excitonic optical properties are elaborately studied using the many-body perturbation theory on the basis of GW approximation. Our results indicate that these novel systems are stable but with soft elastic modulus and ultralow lattice thermal conductivity. It is also shown that the studied monolayers are wide-gap semiconductors with exciton binding energies close to 1 eV. The effects of mechanical straining and electric field on the resulting electronic and optical properties are also analyzed. The presented first-principles results provide a deep understanding of the stability, phononic transport, and tunable optoelectronic properties of the native CuI and AgI and Janus Cu2BrI and Ag2BrI monolayers, which can serve as a guide for the oncoming studies.

description: We present the effects of the self-gravity on the vertical structure and neutrino luminosity of the neutrino-dominated accretion disks in cylindrical coordinates. It is found that significant changes of the structure appear in the outer region of the disk, especially for high accretion rates (e.g., $\ga 1 M_\odot~\rm s^{-1}$), and thus causes the slight increase of the neutrino luminosity. Furthermore, the gravitational instability of the disk is reviewed by the vertical distribution of the Toomre parameter \citep{Toomre1964}, which may account for the late-time flares in gamma-ray bursts and the extended emission in short-duration gamma-ray bursts.

description: Additional file 14: Fig. S5. Illustration of the algorithm for the asynchronous updating of variables with a simplified (3 nodes) example network. The network represents interactions happening in one of the subnetworks (protein= fast reactions or genetic = slow reactions). Inhibitions are represented in red and activations are in black. The mathematical rules corresponding to the network are displayed. If the rules result in a value lower than 0 (resp. higher than 1), the value is brought back to 0 (resp. 1). For this example, 3 different initial states are inputted and each of the three variables is updated asynchronously. The order in which variables are updated is random. The system reaches a stable state when the next update gives the same state as in the previous time step and that all variables were screened in the random ordering list. That state is a pseudo-stable state if the rules were describing fast reactions, in that case, a new slow variable can be updated (see Fig. S4.). However it is a final stable state if the rules were describing slow interactions since it would mean that the system had first reached a pseudo-stable state at the fast level and would now be stable at the slow level too. The example illustrates that different initial states may reach the same final state but also that the same initial state (e.g. [1 0 1] ) can reach different final states, depending on the order in which variables are updated, thereby introducing stochasticity in the system.

Il canone comune per Cirillo e Metodio. Questioni di studio e problemi di edizione
Creators: name: Tomelleri, Vittorio Springfield
Publisher: name: Studi Slavistici
Year: 2016

description: The paper gives a brief overview of some relevant aspects, relating to both the form and content of the common canon for Cyril and Methodius, which is preserved in East Slavic manuscripts. This text poses several challenges, pertaining to its provenance, author and relationship to other works of the Cyrillo-Methodian tradition. A short history of the editions, translations and publications of this text (§ 1) is followed by a thorough analysis of the hirmoi and the hymns to the Mother of God (theotokia), contained in the canon, with additional evidence from the rest of the Slavic liturgical tradition (§ 2-3); here special attention is devoted to the liturgical work by Kliment Ohridski. The next sessions discuss certain passages of the text, referring to the life of the saints or taken from the Holy Writing (§ 4), and show an interesting intertextual connection between the common canon and the Panegyric in honour of Cyril and Methodius, which is also believed to have been written by Kliment (§ 5). The collected material can be used as a starting point for further research work on a text which still remains, in many respects, quite marginal and at the same time somehow enigmatic.

La letteratura di direzione spirituale: invarianti e variabili. La testimonianza del Poslanie Jakova-černorizca k knjazju Dmitriju Borisoviču
Creators: name: Romoli, Francesca
Publisher: name: Studi Slavistici
Year: 2016

description: The article focuses on the Epistle of the Monk Jakov to the Prince Dmitrij Borisovič (Poslanie Jakova-černorizca k knjazju Dmitriju Borisoviču), an East-Slavic text dating from the second half of the 13th century. The author aims to further investigate the hypothesis concerning the literary form used for spiritual teachings. As she demonstrated in previous articles, the Teaching to the Spiritual Son (Poučenie k duchovnomu čadu) by Georgij Zarubskij, the Epistle to Vladimir Monomach on Fasting (Poslanie Vladimiru Monomachu o poste) by mitropolit Nikifor I and the Epistle to Vladimir Monomach (Poslanie k Vladimiru Monomachu) by bishop Daniil (all texts possibly dating from the 12th century) belong to this literary genre. Here she assumes that these texts each represent a different textual sub-type. Textual analysis based on the functions of biblical quotations, together with data concerning the structure of the text, the social status and the cultural level of the sender and the addressee, allow the author to establish that Jakov’s Epistle belongs to the same textual sub-type represented by Georgij Zarubskij’s Teaching.

description: A new $U(1)_X$ gauge boson $X$ primarily interacting with a dark sector can have renormalizable kinetic mixing with the standard model (SM) $U(1)_Y$ gauge boson $Y$. This mixing besides introduces interactions of dark photon and dark sector with SM particles, it also modifies interactions among SM particles. The modified interactions can be casted into the oblique $S$, $T$ and $U$ parameters. We find that with the dark photon mass larger than the $Z$ boson mass, the kinetic mixing effects can reduce the tension of the W mass excess problem reported recently by CDF from $7σ$ deviation to within $3 σ$ compared with theory prediction. If there is non-abelian kinetic mixing between $U(1)_X$ and $SU(2)_L$ gauge bosons, in simple renormalizable models of this type a triplet Higgs is required to generate the mixing. We find that this triplet with a vacuum expectation value of order 5 GeV can naturally explain the W mass excess.

Antifeminismus im Kontext von neurechten Strömungen im deutschen Sprachraum: Handlungsempfehlungen für die Soziale Arbeit aus sozialpolitischer Perspektive
Creators: name: Wehrli, Sara Lou

Year: 2024

description: Die vorliegende Bachelorarbeit wurde von Sara Lou Wehrli und Marco Willa verfasst und widmet sich der Thematik Antifeminismus im Kontext von neurechten Strömungen sowie Handlungsleitlinien für die Soziale Arbeit.

Antifeminismus vernetzt und verbreitet sich zunehmend innerhalb der Gesellschaft, wobei er – subtil oder offensichtlich – in jeglichen erdenkbaren alltäglichen Kontexten wiederzufinden ist. Misogyne Ansichten und Angriffe auf feministische Errungenschaften werden dadurch zunehmend allgegenwärtig und breiten sich auch in Politik und Wissenschaft laufend aus. Dabei ist das zentrale antifeministische Ziel die Verhinderung von Emanzipation, Gleichstellung und Selbstbestimmung von Frauen. In seinen unterschiedlichen Strukturen weist Antifeminismus enge Verbindungen mit neurechten Strömungen auf und dient, aufgrund seiner gesellschaftlichen Anschlussfähigkeit, im Rechtspopulismus als Kernelement. Der Aufstieg rechtspopulistischer Bewegungen und neurechter Akteure trägt wiederum massgeblich dazu bei, antifeministische Rhetorik zu normalisieren sowie geschlechterrechtliche Fortschritte auf politischer Ebene zu hemmen.

Durch ihre Funktion an Schnittstellen kommt der Sozialen Arbeit hierbei eine wichtige Rolle zu: sie kann sich auf verschiedenen Ebenen gegen Antifeminismus positionieren und betroffene Zielgruppen schützen, indem sie politische Bildung und geschlechterbewusste Ansätze fördert, nachhaltige Männlichkeitsbilder vertritt, Stereotype aufbricht und auf unterschiedlichen Ebenen sensibilisiert. Durch eine laufende kritische (Selbst)Reflexion kann die Soziale Arbeit eine differenzierte gesellschaftliche Debatte so unterstützen.

description: In gauge mediation models with multiple spurion fields breaking SUSY and the R-symmetry separately, we show that it is possible to generate gaugino masses at one loop if the R-charge arrangement satisfies a certain condition. The resulting gaugino masses are calculated and suppressed by some power of the messenger mass scale. We present two simple examples to demonstrate this possibility, and discuss possible phenomenology implications.

description: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the connections between Jan Kochanowski’s elegy I 15, about the legend of Wanda, and seventeenth-century historiographic texts about the same figure, the legendary warrior-queen of the Poles. It is evident that the only influence that such historiography had on Kochanowski regards the plot of the story. The poet indeed portrays Wanda as he would any elegiac puella or classical war heroine (e.g. Camilla), constantly imitating elegiac and epic poets (Propertius, Ovid, Vergil...). Having demonstrated this fact, the article explains why Kochanowski decided to write an epyllion on an episode of ‘national’ Polish history concerning an important, although legendary, character and why he wrote it in elegiac couplets. Attention will also be paid to the consequences of this choice, i.e. the effects we have when two different styles – the elegiac and the epic one – are combined in a single text.

description: Calculations for processes involving a high multiplicity of coloured particles often employ a leading colour approximation, where only the leading terms in the expansion of the number of colours $N_c$ and the number of flavours $n_f$ are retained. This approximation of the full colour result is motivated by the $1/N_c^2$ suppression of the first subleading terms and by the increasing complexity of including subleading colour contributions to the calculation. In this work, we present the calculations using the antenna subtraction method in the NNLOJET framework for the NNLO QCD corrections at full colour for several jet observables at the LHC. The single jet inclusive cross section is calculated doubly differential in transverse momentum and absolute rapidity and compared with the CMS measurement at 13 TeV. A calculation for dijet production doubly differential in dijet mass and rapidity difference is also performed and compared with the ATLAS 7 TeV data. Lastly, a triply differential dijet cross section in average transverse momentum, rapidity separation and dijet system boost is calculated and compared with the CMS 8 TeV data. The impact of the subleading colour contributions to the leading colour approximation is assessed in detail for all three types of observables and as a function of the jet cone size. The subleading colour contributions play a potentially sizable role in the description of the triply differential distributions, which probe kinematical configurations that are not easily accessed by any of the other observables.

description: Additional file 15: Fig. S6. Sensitivity analysis: impact of the number of initialization on the canalization results during the Monte Carlo. The percentage of random initialization reaching each attractor is displayed with the Sox9 positive state (healthy) in orange, the Runx2 positive state in blue and the None in grey. Data labels indicate the absolute amount of state reaching the attractors. None of initializations reached an alternative attractor, even for higher amount of random initializations The number of initialization has no significant impact on the basal canalization and 10.000 initializations were considered sufficient to screen the state space in the current study.

description: We present a new determination of unpolarised charged pion and kaon fragmentation functions from a set of single-inclusive electron-positron annihilation and lepton-nucleon semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering data. The determination includes next-to-next-to-leading order QCD corrections to both processes, and is carried out in a framework that combines a neural-network parametrisation of fragmentation functions with a Monte Carlo representation of their uncertainties. We discuss the quality of the determination, in particular its dependence on higher order corrections.

Dimensional regularization, Wilsonian RG, and the Naturalness/Hierarchy problem

description: While it is usually stated that dimensional regularization (DR) has no direct physical interpretation, consensus has recently grown on the idea that it might be endowed with special physical properties that would provide the mechanism that solves the naturalness/hierarchy problem. Comparing direct Wilsonian calculations with the corresponding DR ones, we find that DR indeed has a well-defined physical meaning, and we point out its limitations. In particular, our results show that DR cannot provide the solution to the naturalness/hierarchy problem. The absence of too large corrections to the Higgs boson mass is due to a secretly realized fine-tuning, rather than special physical properties of DR. We also investigate these issues within the Wilsonian RG framework and, by comparison with the usual perturbative RG analysis, we show that several popular proposals for the resolution of the problem, commonly considered as physical mechanisms free of fine-tuning, again secretly implement the tuning.

El’ Lisickij grafico costruttivista. La rivista “Vešč’-Gegenstand-Objet”
Creators: name: Bravin, Alice
Publisher: name: Studi Slavistici
Year: 2016

description: This paper analyzes the graphic design of the international art journal “Vešč’-Gegenstand-Objet”, published in Berlin in 1922 by the Russian architect, painter, photographer and designer Lazar’ Markovič Lisickij (1890-1941), better known as El’ Lisickij, together with the Russian writer Il’ja Grigor’evič Èrenburg (1891-1967). Although it lasted only three issues (issues one and two were combined in a single volume which appeared in March/April 1922, while the last number appeared in May 1922), “Vešč’” had a strong influence on contemporary art. It was published in German, French and Russian and was meant both as a bridge between Russia and Europe after the years of war and revolution and as a symbol of the beginning of a new creative era. Mainly focusing on new Suprematist and Constructivist works, the journal included essays on several fields of art such as literature, cinema, theatre, painting, sculpture, architecture and music. In this paper I focus on the innovative graphic design of the two volumes of “Vešč’” entirely realized by El’ Lisickij. Referring to his own theories about book design, Lisickij created a functional and innovative layout and a striking cover, challenging the traditional graphic design practice by using exclusively standard typographic elements such as punctuation marks, typographic lines, geometric forms and typesetting.

Transverse charge and current densities in the nucleon from dispersively improved chiral effective field theory

description: Background: The transverse densities $ρ_{1, 2}(b)$ describe the distributions of electric charge and magnetic moment at fixed light-front time and connect the nucleon's elastic form factors with its partonic structure. The dispersive representation of the form factors $F_{1, 2}(t)$ expresses the densities in terms of exchanges of hadronic states in the $t$-channel and permits their analysis using hadronic physics methods. Purpose: Compute the densities at peripheral distances $b = \mathcal{O}(M_π^{-1})$, where they are generated predominantly by the two-pion states in the dispersive representation. Quantify the uncertainties. Methods: Dispersively improved chiral effective field theory (DI$χ$EFT) is used to calculate the isovector spectral functions $\textrm{Im}\, F_{1, 2}(t)$ on the two-pion cut. The method includes $ππ$ interactions ($ρ$ resonance) through elastic unitarity and provides realistic spectral functions up to $t \approx$ 1 GeV$^2$. Higher-mass states are parametrized by effective poles and constrained by sum rules (charges, radii, superconvergence relations). The densities $ρ_{1, 2}(b)$ are obtained from their dispersive representation. Uncertainties are quantified by varying the spectral functions. The method respects analyticity and ensures the correct $b \rightarrow \infty$ asymptotic behavior of the densities. Results: Accurate densities are obtained at all distances $b \gtrsim 0.5$ fm, with correct behavior down to $b \rightarrow 0$. The region of distances is quantified where transverse nucleon structure is governed by the two-pion state. The light-front current distributions in the polarized nucleon are computed and discussed. Conclusions: Peripheral nucleon structure can be computed from first principles using DI$χ$EFT. The method can be extended to generalized parton distributions and other nucleon form factors.

The BE-Higgs boson as spin-0 partner of the Z, in the Supersymmetric Standard Model

description: Supersymmetric extensions of the standard model lead to gauge/BE-Higgs unification by providing spin-0 bosons as extra states for spin-1 gauge bosons within massive gauge multiplets. They may be described by the spin-0 components of massive gauge superfields (instead of chiral superfields as usual). In particular, the 125 GeV boson observed at CERN, considered as a BEH boson associated with electroweak breaking and mass generation, may also be interpreted, up to a mixing angle induced by supersymmetry breaking, as the spin-0 partner of the Z under two supersymmetry transformations, i.e. as a Z that would be deprived of its spin.

Sonja-Anja-Alisa, ovvero, Le Avventure di Alice in Russia
Creators: name: Sicari, Ilaria
Publisher: name: Studi Slavistici
Year: 2016

description: Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland (1865) is a text rich of cultural and literary references to Victorian England. This feature is one of the major obstacles to translating this work since the transfer of cultural markers from source to target text often produces partial or total loss of certain nuances of meaning. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the Russian translations of Alice through a comparative study of three translation specimens (Nabokov 1923; Olenič-Gnenenko 1940; Demurova 1967, 1978), which constitute just as many methods (domestication, foreignization, hybridization). Through the study of some difficult cases of translation – proper names with culture-specific connotations, puns and parodies – I will highlight the specificities of these different versions to understand whether and how the translator’s choices have affected the reception of Wonderland in Russia.

description: We study type IIA orientifold compactifications with fluxes that give rise to perturbatively stable, non-supersymmetric AdS$_4$ vacua with D6-brane gauge sectors. Non-perturbative instabilities can be mediated by D8-branes wrapped on the six internal dimensions $X_6$, if they reduce to 4d membranes with a charge $Q$ larger than its tension $T$. The mismatch $Q \neq T$ arises due to i) curvature corrections and ii) the BIon backreaction of D6-branes wrapping 3-cycles of $X_6$. We give a simple expression for the second effect in toroidal orientifolds, and find that only pairs of 3-cycles at SU(2) angles contribute to it. They either contribute towards $Q>T$ or $Q

description: We present a catalog of solar energetic particle (SEP) events covering solar cycles 22, 23 and 24. We correlate and integrate three existing catalogs based on Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) integral proton flux data. We visually verified and labeled each event in the catalog to provide a homogenized data set. We have identified a total of 341 SEP events of which 245 cross the space weather prediction center (SWPC) threshold of a significant proton event. The metadata consists of physical parameters and observables concerning the possible source solar eruptions, namely flares and coronal mass ejections for each event. The sliced time series data of each event, along with intensity profiles of proton fluxes in several energy bands, have been made publicly available. This data set enables researchers in machine learning (ML) and statistical analysis to understand the SEPs and the source eruption characteristics useful for space weather prediction.
