description: My thesis aims to deliver new insights into how progression through life stages, and thermal history at prior stages or generations, shape thermal performance in early life. To do so, I undertook three empirical studies focusing on a marine ectotherm, whose early planktonic stages govern adult abundances and dynamics. First, I describe thermal performance curves (TPC) at fertilization, embryogenesis, and larval development. Second, I assess carryover effects of temperature at prior life stages (fertilization and embryogenesis) on TPC at the end of planktonic development (larval survival). Finally, I examine the combined within- and between-generation effects of thermal acclimation on TPC for larval survival.

description: Single molecule localization microscopy relies on the precise quantification of the position of single dye emitters in a sample. This precision is improved by the number of photons that can be detected from each molecule. It is therefore recommendable to increase illumination times for the recording process. Particularly recording at cryogenic temperatures dramatically reduces photobleaching and thereby allows a massive increase in illumination times to several seconds. As a downside, microscope instabilities may well introduce jitter during such long illuminations, deteriorating the localization precision. In this paper, we theoretically demonstrate that a parallel recording of fiducial marker beads together with a novel fitting approach accounting for the full drift trajectory allows for largely eliminating drift effects for drift magnitudes of several hundred nanometers per frame.

description: As long-distance space travel requires propulsion systems with greater operational flexibility and lifetimes, there is a growing interest in electrodeless plasma thrusters that offer the opportunity of improved scalability, larger throttleability, running on different propellants, and limit device erosion. The majority of electrodeless designs rely on a magnetic nozzle (MN) for the acceleration of the plasma, which has the advantage of utilizing the expanding electrons to neutralize the ion beam without the additional installation of a cathode. The plasma expansion in the MN is nearly collisionless, and a fluid description of electrons requires a non-trivial closure relation. Kinetic electron effects, and in particular electron cooling, play a crucial role in various physical phenomena such as energy balance, ion acceleration, and particle detachment. Based on the experimental and theoretical studies conducted in recognition of this importance, the fundamental physics of the electron cooling mechanism revealed in MNs and magnetically expanding plasma are reviewed. Especially, recent approaches from the kinetic point of view are discussed, and our perspective on the future challenges of electron cooling and the relevant physical subject of MN is presented.

description: In the post-LHC8 world-- where a Standard Model-like Higgs boson has been established but there is no sign of supersymmetry (SUSY)-- the detailed profiling of the Higgs boson properties has emerged as an important road towards discovery of new physics. We present calculations of the expected deviations in Higgs boson couplings $κ_{τ,b}$, $κ_t$, $κ_{W,Z}$, $κ_g$ and $κ_γ$ versus the naturalness measure $Δ_{\rm EW}$. Low values of $Δ_{\rm EW}\sim 10-30$ give rise to a natural Little Hierarchy characterized by light higgsinos with a mass of $μ\sim m_Z$ while top squarks are highly mixed but lie in the several TeV range. For such models with radiatively-driven naturalness, one expects the Higgs boson $h$ to look very SM-like although deviations can occur. The more promising road to SUSY discovery requires direct higgsino pair production at a high energy $e^+e^-$ collider operating with the center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}>2μ\sim \sqrt{2Δ_{\rm EW}}m_Z$.

description: The primary mission of the Nutrition in Medicine (NIM) project is to provide tools to facilitate the nutrition training of undergraduate medical students. NIM has developed and distributed a CD-ROM-based nutrition curriculum to medical schools since 1995. However, the medical school environment is changing rapidly; there is pressure to do more in less time, and many schools are emphasizing independent and integrated learning. The need for a nutrition curriculum that is more flexible and more accessible has driven the evolution of the NIM curriculum from CD-ROM-based delivery into a more modular curriculum with Web delivery. Such changes facilitate access and eliminate the need for installation of CD-ROMs and the associated technical support issues. In addition, the instructional units are smaller and more modular. Eventually, the authoring system will allow instructors to put together a course to meet their specific instructional needs. Our future plans also include custom-tailoring that will allow students to opt out of learning material on the basis of pretest scores if they are already proficient in the content. In this update, we provide a detailed description of the new system and the rationale for the modifications we made. Furthermore, we describe how each change addresses barriers to nutrition education as identified from our surveys and others and from direct user feedback. These innovative strategies should allow a better fit of NIM within diverse medical school environments and help to promote incorporation of the curriculum into more medical schools.

We check the consistency of our procedure using Conformal Perturbation Theory. Finally we comment on how the Effective Hamiltonian, which incorporates non-local interactions, describes a local QFT.

We find agreement among the different methods.

Nutrigenomics and metabolomics will change clinical nutrition and public health practice: insights from studies on dietary requirements for choline
Creators: name: Zeisel, Steven H.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2007

description: Science is beginning to understand how genetic variation and epigenetic events alter requirements for, and responses to, nutrients (nutrigenomics). At the same time, methods for profiling almost all of the products of metabolism in a single sample of blood or urine are being developed (metabolomics). Relations between diet and nutrigenomic and metabolomic profiles and between those profiles and health have become important components of research that could change clinical practice in nutrition. Most nutrition studies assume that all persons have average dietary requirements, and the studies often do not plan for a large subset of subjects who differ in requirements for a nutrient. Large variances in responses that occur when such a population exists can result in statistical analyses that argue for a null effect. If nutrition studies could better identify responders and differentiate them from nonresponders on the basis of nutrigenomic or metabolomic profiles, the sensitivity to detect differences between groups could be greatly increased, and the resulting dietary recommendations could be appropriately targeted. It is not certain that nutrition will be the clinical specialty primarily responsible for nutrigenomics or metabolomics, because other disciplines currently dominate the development of portions of these fields. However, nutrition scientists' depth of understanding of human metabolism can be used to establish a role in the research and clinical programs that will arise from nutrigenomic and metabolomic profiling. Investments made today in training programs and in research methods could ensure a new foundation for clinical nutrition in the future.
Laser in Metal Additive Manufacturing

Year: 2019

description: The evolution of additive manufacturing (AM) techniques has had such an exponential increase especially in recent years that various and remarkable techniques have been developed for the production of metallic materials. These techniques allow to obtain products with remarkable mechanical characteristics. Therefore, the different AM techniques that employed metallic materials were analysed and their strengths and weaknesses were considered. In particular, investigations were carried out on artefacts made by Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) technique in two different metal alloys: Inconel-625 and titanium grade 2. In relation to Inconel-625, tomographic analyses were carried out for the detection of ad hoc defects, ultrasound analyses to evaluate anistropy, micrographs and tensile tests to evaluate their mechanical characteristics. The titanium grade 2 products were compared with samples made by the traditional fusion technique to assess their suitability in the dental field. The results show that artefacts made by DMLS technique have overall better features than fusion samples: the defects are less widespread and smaller, the hardness - characteristic of mechanical properties - higher.

description: We propose a new family structure for the Standard Model fermions, where the muon is assigned to the third family, taking the placeholder from the tau lepton. This reassignment, which is a mere choice of convention in the Standard Model, becomes physically meaningful in the presence of new physics assuming a direct link between quarks and leptons. In fact, when quark and leptons are coupled by new interactions, the choice of which lepton is assigned to a particular quark generation brings physical consequences, revealing potentially meaningful patterns in the masses and mixings, while pointing to precise and testable predictions for experiments.

Support polygon in the hybrid legged-wheeled CENTAURO robot: modelling and control
Creators: name: KAMEDULA, MALGORZATA KATARZYNA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Genova
Year: 2020

description: Search for the robot capable to perform well in the real-world has sparked an interest in the hybrid locomotion systems. The hybrid legged-wheeled robots combine the advantages of the standard legged and wheeled platforms by switching between the quick and efficient wheeled motion on the flat grounds and the more versatile legged mobility on the unstructured terrains. With the locomotion flexibility offered by the hybrid mobility and appropriate control tools, these systems have high potential to excel in practical applications adapting effectively to real-world during locomanipuation operations. In contrary to their standard well-studied counterparts, kinematics of this newer type of robotic platforms has not been fully understood yet. This gap may lead to unexpected results when the standard locomotion methods are applied to hybrid legged-wheeled robots. To better understand mobility of the hybrid legged-wheeled robots, the model that describes the support polygon of a general hybrid legged-wheeled robot as a function of the wheel angular velocities without assumptions on the robot kinematics or wheel camber angle is proposed and analysed in this thesis. Based on the analysis of the developed support polygon model, a robust omnidirectional driving scheme has been designed. A continuous wheel motion is resolved through the Inverse Kinematics (IK) scheme, which generates robot motion compliant with the Non-Sliding Pure-Rolling (NSPR) condition. A higher-level scheme resolving a steering motion to comply with the non-holonomic constraint and to tackle the structural singularity is proposed. To improve the robot performance in presence to the unpredicted circumstances, the IK scheme has been enhanced with the introduction of a new reactive support polygon adaptation task. To this end, a novel quadratic programming task has been designed to push the system Support Polygon Vertices (SPVs) away from the robot Centre of Mass (CoM), while respecting the leg workspace limits. The proposed task has been expressed through the developed SPV model to account for the hardware limits. The omnidirectional driving and reactive control schemes have been verified in the simulation and hardware experiments. To that end, the simulator for the CENTAURO robot that models the actuation dynamics and the software framework for the locomotion research have been developed.

description: We calculate the branching ratio and $CP$ violations for $B\to Kπ$ decays in a modified perturbative QCD approach based on $k_{T}$ factorization. The resummation effect of the transverse momentum regulates the endpoint singularity. Using the $B$ meson wave function that is obtained in the relativistic potential model, soft contribution cannot be suppressed effectively by Sudakov factor. Soft scale cutoff and soft $BK$, $Bπ$ and $Kπ$ form factors have to be introduced. The most important next-to-leading-order contributions from the vertex corrections, the quark loops, and the magnetic penguins are also considered. In addition, the contribution of the color-octet hadronic matrix element is included which is essentially of long-distance dynamics. Our predictions for branching ratios and $CP$ violations are in good agreement with the experimental data. Especially the theoretical result of dramatic difference between the $CP$ violations of $B^+\to K^+π^0$ and $B^0\to K^+π^-$ is consistent with experimental measurement, therefore the $Kπ$ puzzle in $B$ decays can be resolved in our way of the modified perturbative QCD approach.

description: Understanding bounds for the effective differential Nullstellensatz is a central problem in differential algebraic geometry. Recently, several bounds have been obtained using Dicksonian and antichains sequences (with a given growth rate). In the present paper, we make these bounds more explicit and, therefore, more applicable to understanding the computational complexity of the problem, which is essential to designing more efficient algorithms.

description: We investigate how well the graph of a bilinear function $b:[0,1]^n\to\mathbb{R}$ can be approximated by its McCormick relaxation. In particular, we are interested in the smallest number $c$ such that the difference between the concave upper bounding and convex lower bounding functions obtained from the McCormick relaxation approach is at most $c$ times the difference between the concave and convex envelopes. Answering a question of Luedtke, Namazifar and Linderoth, we show that this factor $c$ cannot be bounded by a constant independent of $n$. More precisely, we show that for a random bilinear function $b$ we have asymptotically almost surely $c\geqslant\sqrt n/4$. On the other hand, we prove that $c\leqslant 600\sqrt{n}$, which improves the linear upper bound proved by Luedtke, Namazifar and Linderoth. In addition, we present an alternative proof for a result of Misener, Smadbeck and Floudas characterizing functions $b$ for which the McCormick relaxation is equal to the convex hull.

description: BACKGROUND: Data on the relations of different types of fish meals and long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) to measures of atherosclerosis are sparse.

OBJECTIVE: We examined intakes of long-chain n-3 PUFAs and fish in relation to clinical measures of subclinical atherosclerosis.

DESIGN: A cross-sectional study was conducted in a multiethnic group of 5,488 adults aged 45-84 y and free of clinical cardiovascular disease. Diet was assessed by using self-administered food-frequency questionnaires. Subclinical atherosclerosis was determined by measurements of common carotid intima-media thickness (cCIMT, >80th percentile), internal CIMT (iCIMT, >80th percentile), coronary artery calcium score (CAC score, >0), or ankle-brachial index (ABI, <0.90).

RESULTS: After adjustment for potential confounders, intakes of long-chain n-3 PUFAs and nonfried (broiled, steamed, baked, or raw) fish were inversely related to subclinical atherosclerosis determined by cCIMT but not by iCIMT, CAC score, or ABI. The multivariate odds ratio comparing the highest to the lowest quartile of dietary exposures in relation to subclinical atherosclerosis determined by cCIMT was 0.69 (95% CI: 0.55, 0.86; P for trend < 0.01) for n-3 PUFA intake; 0.80 (95% CI: 0.64, 1.01; P = 0.054) for nonfried fish consumption; and 0.90 (95% CI: 0.73, 1.11; P = 0.38) for fried fish consumption.

CONCLUSIONS: This study indicates that the dietary intake of long-chain n-3 PUFAs or nonfried fish is associated with a lower prevalence of subclinical atherosclerosis classified by cCIMT, although significant changes in iCIMT, CAC score, and ABI were not observed. Our findings also suggest that the association of fish and atherosclerosis may vary depending on the type of fish meal consumed and the measures of atherosclerosis.
Migrazioni e fertilit�: il ricorso alla PMA fra le donne migranti latinoamericane nella citt� di Genova
Creators: name: CASTELLANI, LUANA

description: This work focuses on the reproductive trajectories of Ecuadorian and Peruvian women living in the city of Genoa. Particular attention is paid to the experiences of infertility and medically assisted procreation. The purpose of this work is to highlight the complexity and heterogeneity of the reproductive practices implemented by migrant women, starting from transdisciplinary theoretical perspectives and through ethnographic investigation. A central element of this elaborate regards the concept of "natural" reproduction, widespread in current discourses and policies on fertility and the family, as a sustained dominant ideology of demography, biomedicine. The procreative experiences of migrant women are useful to highlight the disparities and stratifications present in the reproductive field in opposition to the naturalization of the processes of maternity. I focus on the perceptions and representations of motherhood, developed by health professionals dealing with reproductive health in public hospitals, consultants and fertility clinics, in comparison with those of Latin American users, to highlight the asymmetry of the patient in medical relationships. The interpretations and representations of the disease, the world, the sense of self and of others, embodied by doctors and patients, influence significantly the PMA experience and the therapeutic process outcome. My purpose is to analyze how the mutual relationship between different cultural norms and moral horizons affects the reproductive behaviors and the tactics acted on by the subjects to adapting or resisting to the dominated representations of reproduction and identity, created in the transnational context.

description: A common alternative to the standard assumption of nucleonic composition of matter in the interior of a neutron star is to include strange baryons, particularly hyperons. Any change in composition of the neutron star core has an effect on g-mode oscillations of neutron stars, through the compositional dependence of the equilibrium and adiabatic sound speeds. We study the core g-modes of a neutron star contaning hyperons, using a variety of relativistic mean field models of dense matter that satisfy observational constraints on global properties of neutron stars. Our selected models predict a sharp rise in the g-mode frequencies upon the onset of strange baryons. Should g-modes be observed in the near future, their frequency could be used to test the presence of hyperonic matter in the core of neutron stars.
