description: Detections of massive extrasolar moons are shown feasible with the Kepler space telescope. Kepler's findings of about 50 exoplanets in the stellar habitable zone naturally make us wonder about the habitability of their hypothetical moons. Illumination from the planet, eclipses, tidal heating, and tidal locking distinguish remote characterization of exomoons from that of exoplanets. We show how evaluation of an exomoon's habitability is possible based on the parameters accessible by current and near-future technology.

description: An essential component of the brain is the neuron, an excitable cell that receives input from and transmits information to other neurons. Interneurons have shorter axons that are limited to local circuits, while projection neurons have extensive axons that invade multiple regions and propagate information across the brain. This study explores neuronal organization and determines whether patterns exist between different axonal projections, where neurons that have similar projection patterns can be classified as the same type. We hypothesized that neurons projecting from each region can be divided into classes that target different regions nonrandomly. The data consisted of complete reconstructions for 1094 neurons in the mouse brain from the Janelia MouseLight project. Using MATLAB, we binarized and randomized the axonal pathways of neurons with somata in the Primary Motor Area, Secondary Motor Area, and Presubiculum. We then plotted the pathway differences between neuron pairs on a histogram to determine whether they are of the same type. The variance of the random distribution was significantly smaller than that of the real distribution, particularly in the deep layers of the Primary and Secondary Motor Areas. The excess right and left tails in the real data indicate neuron pairs that are more different and more similar, respectively, than expected by chance. These preliminary results suggest that neurons can be grouped into classes that each target a specific set of brain regions, based on their axonal pathways.

description: Hoppe fragt in seinem Text, woran Wissenschaft sich orientieren soll, wenn ihre zentrale Aufgabe die Erkenntnisleistung ist, es aber keine „wahre“ Erkenntnis geben kann. Die Antwort kann nur paradox ausfallen: sie hat sich an der Wahrheit zu orientieren und ausschließlich an der Wahrheit. Aber diese Wahrheit kann nur die theoretische Erkenntnis sein, dass Wahrheit ausschließlich in der Beobachtung der Bedingungen der Erkenntnis erreicht werden kann. Es ist deshalb sinnvoll und theoretisch einsichtig, dass aus der Konstruiertheit der Erkenntnis nicht eine Beliebigkeit des Erkennens und der Wirklichkeit abgeleitet werden kann. Das letztlich nicht Erkennbare, das „Sein“, die Wirklichkeit oder wie man es nennen will, löst sich ja nicht in Wohlgefallen auf, weil es erkenntnismäßig nicht erfasst werden kann. Er stützt sich dabei auf den radikalen Konstruktivismus und Theorien von Kant.

description: Affecting over fifty million people worldwide, epilepsy is a common neurological disorder in which recurrent, unprovoked seizures occur due to abnormal electrical brain activity. The ultimate goal of a seizure detection algorithm is to prevent traumas from occurring during epileptic episodes, ensuring patient safety. Ongoing research has utilized heart rate variability (HRV) analysis, which looks at the time variation between consecutive heartbeats. We developed software which conditioned electrocardiogram (ECG) data of epilepsy patients to remove outliers and ectopic beats. The software then extracted HRV time, frequency, and Poincaré plot features over three-minute intervals, which were detrended using a cut off rate to provide a clear distinction between seizure and nonseizure signals. To facilitate accurate comparisons across features, each feature was normalized to be on a scale between -1 and 1, and seizure and nonseizure intervals were evaluated to determine significant distinctions. We determined that the average NN-interval, standard deviation of NN-interval, mean heart rate, standard deviation of heart rate, and very low frequency features significantly change during seizures. Using Support Vector Machine (SVM) Classifiers over 10,000 trials, our algorithm was able to detect seizures with an accuracy rate of 86.04%. Since many everyday technologies such as electronic watches already collect ECG data, HRV analysis could offer an easily accessible method of epileptic seizure detection.

description: Osteoporosis (OP), a particularly common disease among people above 65 years, makes bones weak and brittle. This predisposes an individual to fragility fractures that could result in fatalities. Currently, Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (DXA) is the state-of-the-art technique for diagnosing OP. But people often postpone DXA scans due to limited compliance resulting in OP remaining undiagnosed until it becomes problematic. The elderly, on the other hand, often get Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans for other indications. The purpose of this research is to demonstrate that these MRI scans could be simultaneously used as a method to predict OP. We used MRI and DXA scans of 13 female and 13 male individuals obtained from the NIH Osteoarthritis Initiative. We considered three types of MRI scans: TSE, 2D MESE, and 3D DESS. Next, we performed texture analysis using a software tool called MaZda on the MRI scans at three different regions of interest (ROIs): one on the distal femoral head and two on the proximal tibial head. We then used Pearson and Spearman correlation to measure the strength of associations between the bone texture obtained from MRI scans via the texture analysis, and bone mineral density (BMD) obtained from DXA scans. Our results showed that several texture features of bone MRI, including wavelet parameters, contrast, and mean, correlate significantly with BMD values. This suggests that data collected from MRI scans can be used as a predictor for OP.

description: We present a study of the existence, stability and bifurcation structure of families of dark breathers in a one-dimensional uniform chain of spherical beads under static load. A defocus- ing nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLS) is derived for frequencies that are close to the edge of the phonon band and is used to construct targeted initial conditions for numerical computations. Salient features of the system include the existence of large amplitude solutions that bifurcate with the small amplitude solutions described by the NLS equation, and the presence of a nonlinear instability that, to the best of the authors knowledge, has not been observed in classical Fermi- Pasta-Ulam lattices. Finally, it is also demonstrated that these dark breathers can be detected in a physically realistic way by merely actuating the ends of an initially at rest chain of beads and inducing destructive interference between their signals.

description: UDP-glucose 6-dehydrogenase (UGDH) is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of UDP-glucose into UDP-glucuronate. This transformation allows for the biosynthesis of hyaluronan, a glycosaminoglycan found in normal synovial fluid, which is imperative for patients suffering from knee injuries. The purpose of this study was to measure UGDH enzyme activity in human fibroblast like synoviocytes (hFLS), cultured under various inflammatory cytokine conditions. Quantitative histomorphometry methods were optimized using 10x and 20x magnification images of hFLS monolayers from two donors cultured in serum-free (SF) medium or 10% FBS containing medium. The monolayers were submitted to enzyme staining for UGDH, counterstained with Hoechst dye, mounted using Aquamount and images were acquired using inverted epifluorescent microscope. Images were taken of one representative field per well at 20X magnification at a fixed light intensity of 7.4V and exposure time of 0.35 ms. ImageJ software was used to quantify the mean pixel intensity per cell of the UGDH staining in hFLS monolayers (irrespective of cytoplasmic or nuclear localization). This was quantified by dividing the mean pixel intensity derived from the cytoplasmic image set to a threshold of 185 by the number of nuclei manually counted. hFLS cultured in 10% FBS medium yielded a 4-fold higher UGDH enzyme staining intensity per cell in comparison to hFLS cultured in serum-free medium (p=0.0023). In addition, there was a positive correlation between cell density and staining intensity.

The Field of Vision Through a Virtual Window to a Virtual Environment has a Smaller Effect than Age on Completion Time of a Dexterous Task

description: The sense of body ownership and sense of embodiment are crucial parts of the virtual and augmented reality experience and are often enhanced by the use of virtual reality goggles. However, these goggles can be quite costly. This can pose a problem for institutions who have limited financial resources and need to train new recruits on dexterous tasks in a virtual environment. Finding an alternative to these goggles with reliable hand tracking technology can remove these barriers. One solution to this problem is orienting a desktop screen with a LEAP motion hand sensor behind the screen to create a ‘window’ into a virtual world. In order to determine whether the field of view, which could distort this virtual window, has an impact on the completion time of a task, we created a dexterity test inside the Unity game engine. This test required the participants to grasp a teleporting cube across 15 predetermined points on the screen with their virtual hands. We observed that there was a small effect on the completion time based on field of view and a larger effect based on age. However, these findings may not hold much statistical significance given its small sample size. Future studies and experiments should account for age as it does have surprising effects on the completion time of a dexterous task.

description: Subfamily † Lagenostephaninae Ge and Tan subf. nov.
Type genus.
 † Lagenostephanus Li, Rasnitsyn, Shih and Ren, 2017
Diagnosis (see also Table 1).
Pronotum elongated with neck differentiated. Pronotal fold present. Forewing with vein 1-M arched; vein r-rs as long as 1-Rs; vein Rs+M and 1Cu nonparallel; vein 2Rs + M differentiated, not connect with free abscissa of vein M and vein 2-Rs. Hind coxa largely smooth, without transverse rugose. Hind femur robust and coriaceous. Tergite I almost as long as tergite II. Ovipositor sheath about as long as metasoma.
Comments.
 The phylogenetic results indicated that the new subfamily forms a monophyletic group that sister to Schlettereriinae. When the characters are mapped on the tree, the new subfamily does not possess any unique synapomorphy, while its sister relationship to Schlettereriinae is supported by a synapomorphy (character 34: 0). This is caused by the male † Neurastephanus neovenatus which is revealed as member of † Lagenostephaninae based on forewing with vein 1-M 1.4-1.7 × as long as vein 1m-cu (character 38: 1), the largely smooth hind coxa (character 45: 0),the forewing with vein 2Rs+M non-connecting to 2-Rs (character 34: 0), the apical abscissa of vein M (character 23: 1), and vein Rs+M of fore wing converging to vein 1Cu distally (character 36: 1). All above characters are homoplastic within Stephanidae. The length of ovipositor (characters 64), which is short in † Lagenostephaninae and represents the unique synapomorphy of the subfamily, cannot be coded for † Neurastephanus neovenatus and hence cannot be mapped in Fig. 6. Intriguingly, based on the comparatively short ovipositor and small body sizes of † Lagenostephaninae, we speculate that these may reflect a unique ecological niche of the lineage (e.g. possible parasitism of bark beetles) different from Schlettereriinae that are parasitoids of xylem borers. We believe it is hence reasonable to establish this lineage as a new subfamily rather than combine it with Schlettereriinae.

description: All possible evolution scenarios of a thin vacuum shell surrounding the spherically symmetric de Sitter space have been determined and the corresponding global geometries have been constructed. Such configurations can appear at the final stage of the cosmological phase transition, when isolated regions (islands) of the old vacuum remain. The islands of the old vacuum are absorbed by the new vacuum, expand unlimitedly, or form black holes and wormholes depending on the sizes of the islands as well as on the density and velocity of the shells surrounding the islands.

description: Developers often face difficulties in trying to understand how to write code correctly which follows a project’s design rules. In Active Documentation, developers can more easily write code correctly by following explicitly identified design rules. We are currently building a technique to mine potential design rules from code. Specifically, we devised a technique for ranking potential design rules for the user to view based on the degree of interest developers have expressed with specific code elements. We calculate degree of interest by observing the caret location of where the user has recently navigated in code and inferring related elements as well as through the searches developers have performed. Through using this data, we believe our technique may help more effectively rank potential design rules for the developer to view and inspect.

description: Software developers often have a difficult time debugging their code and fixing defects that cause software to behave incorrectly. When initially faced with a defect, if developers are able to formulate a correct hypothesis, debugging is usually quick. However developers often struggle to find correct hypotheses on their own. In our work, we are investigating a new approach to debugging: a tool which generates suggested hypotheses for developers to investigate. To explore this approach, we built a Chrome Developer Tools extension named Hypothesizer. Hypothesizer generates a list of relevant hypotheses based on natural language processing of the developer’s description of the defect and ranks their relevance based on analysis of the code. In the future we hope to scale Hypothesizer and allow it to automatically generate relevant hypotheses as it encounters new defects. Ultimately, we believe our work has the potential to provide developers a much easier way to debug by identifying potential hypotheses for them when they experience bugs in their code.

Den Hintergrund meiner Ausführungen bildet eine Vielzahl Sokratischer Gespräche zum Deuten solcher Phänomene (ca. 40 Gespräche), die ich mit sehr unterschiedlichen Klassen im Laufe der vergangenen Jahre geführt habe. Ästhetische Phänomene unterscheiden sich von anderen Phänomenen dadurch, dass sie in anschaulicher Komplexität auftreten. D.h., jedes Phänomen äußert sich in der Einheit von vier anschaulichen Qualitäten: Form/Gestalt – Bewegung – Farbe – Oberflächenbeschaffenheit (Freeß 2002, S. 2ff.; 2004, S. 59ff.; 2006, S. 134ff.; u.a.).

description: When creating presentation slides, users often face difficulties in staying consistent with a presentation’s visual style and may be required to refer to previous slides. This may slow the user’s work or may lead to visual design errors when users create elements inconsistent with a presentation’s visual style. In our project, a machine learning algorithm – specifically decision trees – is used to predict attributes of visual elements, including font size and the positioning of elements in relation to neighboring elements. The user can use these predictions to adjust the attributes of elements to match the presentation’s visual style, potentially helping them more quickly complete tasks and identify potential errors. We implemented this approach as a Google Slides Add-on. In the future, we hope to enable additional human-computer collaboration where users may edit the visual styles learned by the system to reflect their intent.

description: In the course of extreme weather, coastal communities suffer significant risk of damage due to impact from waves and storm surges. In North Carolina, the Outer Banks, a popular tourist destination due to its numerous beaches and waterfronts, is among one of the many locations in danger. For instance, Hurricane Dorian devastated the barrier islands of North Carolina causing up to $50 million in damages. To help mitigate these hazards, natural and nature-based features (NNBF) have been acclaimed as a possible solution to alleviate these coastal hazards. However, our understanding on the potential of NNBF functions is still limited, making it challenging to compare their benefits to more traditional coastal resilience approaches (i.e. seawalls, breakwaters, revetments). Therefore, documenting the potential of these ecosystems to reduce wave energy based on field-scale experiments is crucial to enable its full adoption as a reliable coastal defense. To obtain accurate data, we established precise locations for hydrodynamic and waves sensors based on numerical modeling of past hurricanes and an evaluation of their impact. When examining the modeling results, as the water reaches the vegetation, it is prevalent to find an exponential wave decay to identify the best sensor placements to capture the effects in the research area. The study site is located in Frisco, NC, where the sensors intended to be used include the Hobo Onset U201 (low-frequency pressure transducer to measure water levels), and the RBR D|wave16 (high-frequency pressure sensor to measure wave heights). We simulated Hurricane Irene (2011) with the numerical model XBeach to estimate the potential impacts that hurricanes have on marshes in the Outer Banks. Through these simulations we looked at the effectiveness of the marshes at reducing the wave heights to understand the possible protection marshes may provide, by comparing vegetation and synthetic non-vegetation scenarios. The placement of the sensors was determined after the analysis of the wave attenuation curves during time varying water levels and wave heights for both scenarios, based on the wave height that was influenced by vegetation. With reliable placements of these sensors, further data will be capable of illustrating the impact NNBF has on wave attenuation, supporting further academic analysis of NNBF potential to protect coastal communities and infrastructure.

description: We develop a dynamical theory of heat transfer between two nano systems. In particular, we consider the resonant heat transfer between two nanoparticles due to the coupling of localized surface modes having a finite spectral width. We model the coupled nanosystem by two coupled quantum mechanical oscillators, each interacting with its own heat bath, and obtain a master equation for the dynamics of heat transfer. The damping rates in the master equation are related to the lifetimes of localized plasmons in the nanoparticles. We study the dynamics towards the steady state and establish connection with the standard theory of heat transfer in steady state. For strongly coupled nano particles we predict Rabi oscillations in the mean occupation number of surface plasmons in each nano particle.

description: Automated Short Answer Grading (ASAG) consists of using computer programs to grade student short responses to free response questions. Current state of the art algorithms for ASAG rely on statistical representations of words, commonly generated through deep learning techniques like word2vec. One property of word2vec is commutativity, i.e. switching the order of words does not change the embedding. Motivated by this shortcoming, word2mat embeds words as matrices, whose multiplication is noncommutative. However, word2mat is both linear and associative, while English has nonlinear effects in certain contexts. To address these mathematical properties, we propose representing words as shallow neural networks. We then generalize word2mat by introducing a simple nonlinear activation function between each matrix multiplication, which we show makes the embedding noncommutative, nonlinear, and non-associative. Empirically, the nonlinear model performs an average of 0.83% worse than word2mat on the SentEval framework, and a neural network trained on both models’ embeddings to predict student grades has nearly identical accuracy. Possible justifications of the discrepancy between theoretical advantages and empirical performance are computational power and limited training time.

description: Per come cristallizzate nei Trattati istitutivi, le «libertà fondamentali» dell’Unione europea (libertà di circolazione dei beni, dei servizi, delle persone, dei capitali) si rivolgono formalmente nei soli confronti degli Stati membri, chiamati a darne attuazione in funzione della promozione e del mantenimento di un adeguato livello di concorrenzialità nel mercato unico.
Dall’analisi della giurisprudenza della Corte di Giustizia si evince tuttavia come la concreta portata applicativa di queste norme si estenda sovente oltre la semplice relazione verticale tra ordinamento europeo e singoli Stati, traducendosi invece in una regola di ordine pubblico economico immediatamente precettiva, rilevante a livello orizzontale nei rapporti tra privati, ed idonea a conformarne il contenuto.
I saggi raccolti nel volume intendono favorire una riflessione sugli effetti che le libertà fondamentali del Trattato U.E. possono assumere nel sistema delle fonti del diritto privato, nonché sulle regole operanti in specifici settori dell’ordinamento.

description: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic degenerative disease that affects over 32.5 million adults in the United States, and can be caused as a result of injury to different joints, including the knee or ankle. Injuries and subsequent OA in these joints can cause the patient to experience pain and a reduced range of motion. Gait modification techniques can be used to reduce pressure on the affected ankle and knee joint, helping to alleviate some of the discomfort and pain. However, there are no methods available to remotely monitor patient progress. To address this issue, a system was designed to monitor the foot kinematics of patients in real-time via a wearable ankle gait detector sleeve and a companion mobile application uniquely designed to use with the gait detector sleeve. The gait detector sleeve along with the companion application will be able to provide patients with some training regimes to follow and remind patients to routinely follow the training regime. The application, built using Google’s Flutter, Dart, and Firebase will provide statistics such as step count, toe angle, provide various tips to alleviate OA pain, and function as an ideal method for patients to monitor their progress on the gait detector sleeve from the comfort of their home.

description: Kinderarmut in der reichen Bundesrepublik, das mutet fremd an. Wir leben in einem der reichsten Länder der Welt und niemand braucht hier Hunger zu leiden oder muss obdachlos sein. Denn die Sozialhilfe garantiert innerhalb des sozialen Sicherungssystems als nachrangigem Hilfesystem, wie das Bundesverfassungsgericht schon vor Jahren in einer Entscheidung verpflichtend festgelegt hat, dass das soziokulturelle Existenzminimum gesichert ist. Und diese Hilfe wird unabhängig vom Ansehen der Person gewährt. Somit ist in Deutschland – zumindest aus dieser formal-juristischen Perspektive – für jedermann ein Leben gewährleistet, das der Würde des Menschen entspricht, wie Art. 1 Abs. 1 des Grundgesetzes verlangt. Und damit wäre das Thema ‚Kinderarmut‘ auf den ersten Blick erledigt.Nun ist Wissenschaft keine Veranstaltung, die sich mit dem ersten Blick zufrieden gibt, sie schaut genauer hin und entdeckt dabei oft überraschende Tatsachen, die sich dem flüchtigen Hinsehen entziehen. Das ist beim Thema ‚Kinderarmut‘ nicht anders. So soll im Folgenden zunächst deutlich gemacht werden, was unter Armut verstanden wird, um daran anschließend zuerst die Entwicklung der Kinderarmut in Deutschland von 1980 bis 2004 zu untersuchen. Besondere Brisanz erhält das Thema durch neuere politische Entscheidungen, denn am 1.1.2005 traten die sog. Hartz-IV-Gesetze in Kraft und es bedarf einer besonderen Betrachtung, welchen Einfluss diese auf die Armutsentwicklung unter Kindern und Jugendlichen genommen haben. Abschließend werden Überlegungen vorgestellt, die als politische Forderungen zur Überwindung des – trotz der Existenz des sozialen Sicherungssystems zu verzeichnenden – gesellschaftlichen Skandals „Kinderarmut“ beitragen sollen.

Diagnosis.
Head elliptical (Fig. 8A). Mesosoma robust, pronotum with distinct U-shaped pronotal fold. Hind coxa rather strong with distinct lateral groove. Hind femur rather robust with its median part extremely swollen as nearly oval shaped (Fig. 8E). Hind femur with 2 large teeth and 10 medium sized teeth (4 of them between large teeth and 6 behind the apical large teeth). Hind tibia with two spurs and with its apical half rather dilated, almost as wide as hind femur. Hind tarsus of female 5-segmented. Forewing with Rs + M and 1Cu non-parallel (Fig. 8B); 2Rs + M rather elongated, almost as long as 1-Rs. Metasomal T1 and S1 not fused laterally. Ovipositor length almost as long as the metasoma.

description: COVID-19, a SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus originating from Southeast Asia, has resulted in 13.4 million cases and 580,000 deaths worldwide. The COVID-19 N-protein is responsible for viral replication by assisting in viral RNA synthesis and attaching the viral genome to the replicase-transcriptase complex (RTC). Novel vaccine systems, such as live-attenuated and inactive vaccines, are aimed at suppressing the N-protein by blocking its active sites involved in phosphorylation, oligomerization, and RNA binding. The purpose of this study was to determine active sites of the COVID-19 N-protein for drug targets by identifying torsion angle classifiers for N-protein structural change that correlated with the respective angle’s differences between the active and inactive N-protein. In the study, classifiers with a minimum accuracy of 80% determined from NAMD molecular simulation data were analyzed by Principal Component Analysis and cross-validated by Logistic Regression, Support Vector Machine, and Random Forest Classification. We found the significant changes at residue 189 for phosphorylation deactivation, residues 252 and 375 in the N-protein oligomerization domain, and residues 252 and 375 in the RNA binding domain. These residues not only were implicated in the aforementioned functions, but they also correlated with torsion angles psi 252 and phi 375 to 100% accuracy. The correlation for the residue matching angles phi/psi 189 was 90.4% accurate. Future applications include virtual drug screening to test the accuracy of drug targets and determining active sites for COVID-19 S-Protein and ACE2 protein, which are proteins used to bind to and invade host cells.

Tunable degree of localization in random lasers with controlled interaction

description: We show that the degree of localization for the modes of a random laser (RL) is affected by the inter mode interaction that is controlled by shaping the spot of the pump laser. By experimentally investigating the spatial properties of the lasing emission we infer that strongly localized modes are activated in the low interacting regime while in the strongly interacting one extended modes are found lasing. Thus we demonstrate that the degree o localization may be finely tuned at the micrometer level.
Advancing Scientific Communication about Cancer Research: How to Develop Inhibitors for PD-1 and PD-L1 and Why It Is So Important

description: Cancer cells can gain immunosuppressive functions to avoid being detected by immune cells by turning off certain receptors. PD-1, a checkpoint protein on the surface of T-cells, is deactivated when binding to PD-L1 receptors on the surface of cancer cells. As a result, T cells will not react to cancer cells and the cancer cells will be able to multiply. Our research goal is to create a peptide inhibitor that either binds to PD-1 or PD-L1, allowing the immune system to attack the cancer cells without additional treatments. We focused on optimizing a pull-down assay for detecting the interaction between PD-1 and PD-L1. If successful, this will generate a simple system in which to study peptide inhibitors that bind to PD-1 or PD-L1. However, the two proteins have not been detected to form a complex with each other in the pull-down assays. Another second method used for detecting protein-protein interactions is blue native page gel (BN-PAGE), which can be used to isolate a protein complex based on its size without denaturing the protein in the process. Further research will focus on optimizing both the BN-PAGE as well as the pull-down through buffer screening to ensure that the two proteins can be detected in a complexed state, which is important for downstream inhibitor development.

Subjects: subject: 000

description: „Exakte Naturwissenschaften in der Grundschule?“ fragt Carl Schietzel 1984. Und er beantwortet diese provokativ zugespitzte Frage letztlich mit einem differenzierten und dennoch eindeutigen „nein“. Es sei der Zeitpunkt gekommen „den erreichten Stand der Dinge bewusst zu machen und dadurch eine neue Plattform für weitere didaktische Theorien und Forschungsprojekte und eine Entscheidungshilfe für die Lehrplanarbeit zu schaffen“ (Schietzel 2007, S. 1). Dieser Text kommentiert die Ausführungen Carl Schietzels.
Thermodynamic phase transitions for Pomeau-Manneville maps

Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We study phase transitions in the thermodynamic description of Pomeau-Manneville intermittent maps from the point of view of infinite ergodic theory, which deals with diverging measure dynamical systems. For such systems, we use a distributional limit theorem to provide both a powerful tool for calculating thermodynamic potentials as also an understanding of the dynamic characteristics at each instability phase. In particular, topological pressure and Renyi entropy are calculated exactly for such systems. Finally, we show the connection of the distributional limit theorem with non-Gaussian fluctuations of the algorithmic complexity proposed by Gaspard and Wang [Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85, 4591 (1988)].

title:  Memoria e storia della Shoah. Una sfida per la didattica
Creators: name: Meghnagi  , David
Publisher: name: RomaTrE-Press
Year: 2020

description: La didattica sulla storia e memoria della Shoah è tra le sfide più complesse con cui  confrontarsi perché mette in gioco competenze e specializzazioni diverse: storia, geografia e geopolitica; sociologia, psicologia e pedagogia; antropologia culturale, filosofia e letteratura; per non parlare della storia della scienza  e della medicina;  della teologia e dei simbolismi religiosi, della storia economica etc.  Gli orizzonti della ricerca, in un primo tempo fortemente limitati al periodo bellico, si sono progressivamente ampliati ed estesi al periodo di incubazione che l’ha preceduto: la prima guerra. La complessità delle questioni, con l’istituzione del “Giorno della Memoria”, ha fatto emergere nei docenti la consapevolezza delle difficoltà da affrontare, difficoltà che non potevano essere risolte d’incanto, con un uno o più corsi di aggiornamento. La sfida metteva in gioco la classificazione delle discipline e la separatezza dei saperi. Allo stesso tempo indicava un modo nuovo di fare didattica che aveva implicazioni per ogni ambito disciplinare.
