description: We discuss results of magnetohydrodynamical model simulations of plasma dynamics in the proximity of the heliopause (HP). The model is shown to fit details of the magnetic field variations observed by Voyager 1 spacecraft during the transition from the heliosphere to the local interstellar medium (LISM). We propose an interpretation of magnetic field structures observed by Voyager 1 in terms of fine-scale physical processes. Our simulations reveal an effective transport mechanism of relatively dense LISM plasma across the reconnecting HP into the heliosphere. The mechanism is associated with annihilation of magnetic sectors in the heliospheric plasma near the HP.

Les Grandes Chroniques de France, mss. L.V.47 e L.II.8 della Biblioteca Nazionale Universitaria di Torino: studio storico-artistico di un manoscritto danneggiato nell’incendio del 1904

description: The article centres on a manuscript copy of the Grandes Chroniques de France from the book collections of the House of Savoy, which was seriously damaged in the fire that struck the Biblioteca Nazionale Universitaria of Turin in January 1904. The author attempts to reconstruct the original manuscript by starting from the ancient catalogues of the library, and she focuses on its iconographical cycle, which can be attributed to the second artist of ms. Français 823 of the Bibliothèque nationale of Paris, who, it has been hypothesised but not unanimously, could be the illuminator Pierre or Perrin Remiet, quoted in various Parisian documents dating between 1386 and 1428. The article focuses on the manuscripts which were produced by this workshop, attempting where possible to identify their first owners. What emerges is the image of a relatively prolific workshop of illuminators, specializing in the decoration of texts with a profane content written in the vernacular, destined for clients from different levels of society, among whom some of the greatest bibliophiles of the time, first and foremost the duke Jean de Berry. The article ends with some considerations on the original history of the Grandes Chroniques of Turin, which may have entered the Savoy collections as early as the late medieval period.

description: This paper deals with the MS 29 (70) of the Bibliothèque Municipale of Chartres, a 10th century witness of Joseph Flavius’ Antiquitates Iudaicae and Bellum Iudaicum. The manuscript was severely damaged by the fire from 1944 and 211 fragments of it survive in different state of conservation, out of the 245 folios that once formed the codex. The research has allowed to reestablish the correct textual sequence of the fragments, all digitized in the Bibliothèque virtuelle des manuscrits mediévaux, describe the codicological and paleographical features of the manuscript, date it to the second half of the 10th century and make an hypotesis on its localisation between Fleury and Saint-Père of Chartres, two abbeys tightly connected from the second half of the 10th century inwards. The paper also gives some hints of the position of the manuscript in the textual transmission and investigates its relations with the MS 183 from the Burgerbibliothek of Bern.

I codici bruciati della Biblioteca Nazionale Universitaria di Torino: le problematiche del restauro

Publisher: name: Scrineum Rivista
Year: 2020

description: The parchment codices of the National Library of Turin, heavily destroyed by fire in 1904, had very complex damages due to the thermal contraction of the writing support. The covers were burnt so the leaves got mixed up, some were stuck together because of the deteriora- tion of collagen. In some cases they formed very hard blocks. In 2000 the National Library of Turin started a project to complete the restoration of the entire manuscripts collection, in cooperation with the Università degli Sudi of Turin, the Politecnico of Milan and the Istituto Cen- trale per la Patologia del Libro of Rome. The experimentation was based on sophisticated analysis on old, new, fire-damaged and non-damaged samples, in order to find a restoring process that would be able to give back flexibility to parchment, to separate the agglutinated pages and to flatten them. The process was composed in different phases: preliminary interven- tions, wet treatments and flattening. Some pigments and inks were found out to be soluble during the wet treatments, so part of the testing had been focused on the identification of an efficient fixative that would not alterate the colour of the pigment. This experimentation has allowed us to write down a protocol for the restoration of fire-damaged parchment.

description: We propose a new radio resource management algorithm which aims at minimizing the base station supply power consumption for multi-user MIMO-OFDM. Given a base station power model that establishes a relation between the RF transmit power and the supply power consumption, the algorithm optimizes the trade-off between three basic power-saving mechanisms: antenna adaptation, power control and discontinuous transmission. The algorithm comprises two steps: a) the first step estimates sleep mode duration, resource shares and antenna configuration based on average channel conditions and b) the second step exploits instantaneous channel knowledge at the transmitter for frequency selective time-variant channels. The proposed algorithm finds the number of transmit antennas, the RF transmission power per resource unit and spatial channel, the number of discontinuous transmission time slots, and the multi-user resource allocation, such that supply power consumption is minimized. Simulation results indicate that the proposed algorithm is capable of reducing the supply power consumption by between 25% and 40%, dependend on the system load.

description: The fire, which broke out in the National University Library of Turin in January 1904, destroyed about 25.000 printed volumes and 1.500 manuscripts. The fire crumpled and twisted the codes by welding the edges of the sheets with a dense layer consisting of an amalgam of smoke and gelatin glue; the parchment, to which the excessive heat had removed its natural humidity, shriveled and dried up becoming very fragile. The water, abundantly thrown to extinguish the fire, aggravated the situation of the membranaceous codes, compromising all the materials composing the body of the volumes. During the twentieth century, thanks to the value of the restorers (Marrè, Caudana, Bruna and others), measures were put in place to restore as much as possible the mass of seriously damaged manuscripts, but only with the recovery project implemented by the Library in 1999 all unresolved issues were addressed. This project involved different knowledge and professionalism: librarians, physicists, chemists, philologists, restorers. The fire of 1904 brought back to the discussion table the long-standing hypothesis of building a new location for the Turin National Library to be placed in a modern, highly personal and definitive building. After troubled decades of hypotheses and designs, the new Library headquarters, in the central Piazza Carlo Alberto, was officially inaugurated on February 15, 1976.

description: We consider bosons in a Hubbard lattice with an SU($\cal N$) pseudospin degree of freedom which is made dynamical via a coherent transfer term. It is shown that, in the basis which diagonalizes the pseudospin coupling, a generic hopping process affects the spin state, similar to a spin-orbit coupling. This results, for the system in the Mott phase, in a ferromagnetic phase with variable quantization axis. In extreme cases, it can even give rise to antiferromagnetic order.

description: Italian Legal Manuscripts at Chartres : Notes on Provenance. Throughout the XIIIth century numerous Italian canons received their prebends in the affluent cathedral chapter of Chartres. In the XIVth century, they were followed by other beneficiaries of the extraordinary pontifical collations, mainly from southern France. The present paper proposes a closer look at six legal manuscripts of Italian origin, formerly in the chapter library, that survived the 1944 bombing in various states of preservation. By retracing their individual histories, it aims to better understand the impact of this itinerant clerical body on the formation of the chapter library.

Un puzzle chartrain: mettre en ordre les fragments d’une anthologie théologique d’œuvres rares

description: A Chartrain puzzle: putting in order the fragments of a theo- logical anthology of rare and out-of-date texts. By its material state and intellectual content, the ms. Chartres, Mediathèque l’Apostrophe, 205 (3rd qu. of 13th c., from the Cathedral Chapter of Chartres) is a good example of the procedures that were followed at Institut de Recherche et d’Histoire des Textes (CNRS, Paris), to put the Chartres manuscripts back in order, after their leaves were gnawed and unbound by the flame in 1944. Based on the surviving folios and on the documentation prior to the fire, electronic concordances are used whenever possible to iden- tify the text of the folios. Then these are put back in orderly series, and finally their foliotation is reconstructed by comparison with the cata- logues. The result allows some previous identifications to be corrected or completed. In the case of ms. 205, a historical question then arises: why does this manuscript, probably bequeathed by a canon of Chartres cathedral, contain such an unusual choice of texts, in particular a selec- tion of pre-scholastic works (Anselm of Cantorbery, Odo of Tournai, Ul- ger of Liège, Hildebert of Lavardin, Hugh and Richard de Saint-Victor, Bernard of Clairvaux, Honorius Augustodunensis), although they were out of fashion in the second half of the 13th century? And why does the ms. transcribe in this context a mysterious treatise “Against those who do not believe in the future life”, of which only a few vestiges remain ?

description: In real-world applications of large language models, outputs are often required to be confined: selecting items from predefined product or document sets, generating phrases that comply with safety standards, or conforming to specialized formatting styles. To control the generation, constrained decoding has been widely adopted. However, existing prefix-tree-based constrained decoding is inefficient under GPU-based model inference paradigms, and it introduces unintended biases into the output distribution. This paper introduces Dynamic Importance Sampling for Constrained Decoding (DISC) with GPU-based Parallel Prefix-Verification (PPV), a novel algorithm that leverages dynamic importance sampling to achieve theoretically guaranteed asymptotic unbiasedness and overcomes the inefficiency of prefix-tree. Extensive experiments demonstrate the superiority of our method over existing methods in both efficiency and output quality. These results highlight the potential of our methods to improve constrained generation in applications where adherence to specific constraints is essential.

description: A Legendary, formerly in the cathedral chapter library of Chartres, ms. 500, stood out amongst the manuscripts burnt in 1944. It was a large volume from the mid-12th century, richly illuminated with an exceptional cycle of 55 historiated initials. Thanks to the recovered fragments and pre-war reproductions and descriptions, the sanctoral and its iconography can be examined in relation with the liturgy, relics and the 13th-century stained-glasses in the Chartres cathedral. The early and rare hagiographical scenes raise a question of their possible Byzantine source of inspiration.

description: We introduce a formalism that describes the interaction of light with bifacial optical nanomaterials. They are artificial noncentrosymmetric materials in which counter-propagating waves behave differently. We derive electromagnetic material parameters for uniaxial crystalline media in terms of the complex transmission and reflection coefficients of a single layer of the constituent nanoscatterers, which makes the numerical evaluation of these parameters very efficient. In addition, we present generalized Fresnel coefficients for such bifacial nanomaterials and investigate the fundamental role of higher-order electromagnetic multipoles on the bifaciality. We find that two counter-propagating waves in the material must experience the same refractive index, but they can have dramatically different wave impedances. The use of our model in practice is demonstrated with a particular example of a bifacial nanomaterial that exhibits a directional impedance matching to the surrounding medium.

description: A leaky-wave antenna at optical frequencies is designed and integrated with a ring resonator at 1550 nm wavelength. The leaky wave is generated by using periodic perturbations in the integrated dielectric waveguide that excite the -1 spatial harmonic. The antenna consists of a dielectric waveguides with semiconductor corrugations, and it is compatible with CMOS fabrication technology. We show that integrating the leaky wave antenna in an optical ring resonator that is fed by directional couplers, we can improve the electronic control of the radiation through carrier injection into the semiconductor corrugations.

description: Motivated by recent experimental observation (see e.g., I.V.Rubtsov, Acc. Chem. Res., v. 42, 1385 (2009)) of vibrational energy transport in CH_2O_N and CF_2_N molecular chains (N = 4 - 12), in this paper we present and solve analytically a simple one dimensional model to describe theoretically these data. To mimic multiple conformations of the molecular chains, our model includes random off-diagonal couplings between neighboring sites. For the sake of simplicity we assume Gaussian distribution with dispersion sigma for these coupling matrix elements. Within the model we find that initially locally excited vibrational state can propagate along the chain. However the propagation is neither ballistic nor diffusion like. The time T_m for the first passage of the excitation along the chain, scales linearly with N in the agreement with the experimental data. Distribution of the excitation energies over the chain fragments (sites in the model) remains random, and the vibrational energy, transported to the chain end at $t=T_m$ is dramatically decreased when sigma is larger than characteristic interlevel spacing in the chain vibrational spectrum. We do believe that the problem we have solved is not only of intellectual interest (or to rationalize mentioned above experimental data) but also of relevance to design optimal molecular wires providing fast energy transport in various chemical and biological reactions.

Subjects: subject: race and racism

description: Chicago’s black population has dropped by a third from its 1950 peak, and continues to drop even as other racial groups grow. Because of Chicago’s severe racial segregation, this population loss is geographically disproportionate. How has population change citywide in the 2010s caused demographic trends in declining and growing parts of the city to diverge? I use Census data to analyze trends in age, income, homeownership, employment, and housing vacancy in predominantly black versus nonblack tracts. I find that the black child population is decreasing, while the senior population is growing citywide. Losses from black neighborhoods skew toward homeowners and higher-income households, while nonblack neighborhoods are seeing a boom in young adult white-collar renter households. Finally, while vacant housing units are highly concentrated in black neighborhoods, some heavily vacant areas are seeing new growth. I recommend the city pursue homeownership retention initiatives and undertake an evaluation of local parenting needs.

description: CPU scheduling has valiant effect on resource utilization as well as overall quality of the system. Round Robin algorithm performs optimally in time shared systems, but it performs more number of context switches, larger waiting time and larger response time. In order to simulate the behavior of various CPU scheduling algorithms and to improve Round Robin scheduling algorithm using dynamic time slice concept, in this paper we produce the implementation of new CPU scheduling algorithm called An Optimum Multilevel Dynamic Round Robin Scheduling (OMDRRS), which calculates intelligent time slice and warps after every round of execution. The results display the robustness of this software, especially for academic, research and experimental use, as well as proving the desirability and efficiency of the probabilistic algorithm over the other existing techniques and it is observed that this OMDRRS projects good performance as compared to the other existing CPU scheduling algorithms.

description: Restricting the use of the insecticide aldrin in corn production will affect farmers' production costs. The effect of these higher production costs on producers' gross and net income and their impact on consumers' food costs depends on assumptions made. In analyzing the economic impact of replacing aldrin with nonorganochlorine insecticides, two general conditions were evaluated. These conditions were (1) holding corn acreage constant and allowing corn price to rise (because of reduced output) and (2) bringing additional land into corn production to maintain corn output and hold corn price constant. For each condition two assumptions were made regarding alternative insecticides to replace aldrin. These were (1) alternative insecticides would be used to control corn rootworms, wireworms, and cutworms and (2) no insecticides would be used to control wireworms and cutworms but alternative insecticides would be used to control corn rootworms. Without bringing additional land into production, corn producers' gross income and consumers' costs would have increased $24.8 million when alternative insecticides were used and $83.2 million when alternative insecticides were not used to replace aldrin. But those farmers using aldrin in 1971 would have had added costs of $31.5 million when alternative insecticides were used and $54.5 million when alternative insecticides were not used to replace aldrin. Bringing additional land into corn production to maintain output and price would have increased producers' costs $25.9 million when alternative insecticides were used and $31.5 million when alternative insecticides were not used to replace aldrin in 1971.

description: In this activity, students will analyze raw data obtained from an experiment that explores the effect of overexpressing the Ssk protein in order to strengthen the intestinal barrier and prevent bacteria from leaking out of the gut and into the hemolymph, which is the fruit fly equivalent to blood in the circulatory system. Using Excel, students will fit an exponential function to the few known data points and will then interpolate the missing data points and extrapolate a few future data points. They will also learn how they can fit a linear model by transforming the data (applying the logarithmic function) and use that model to estimate the missing data points. This activity involves both statistical analysis and mathematical modeling as well as displaying the usefulness of mathematical models for biological data analysis.

description: Perturbation theory (PT) is a powerful and commonly used tool in the investigation of closed quantum systems. In the context of open quantum systems, PT based on the Markovian quantum master equation is much less developed. The investigation of open systems mostly relies on exact diagonalization of the Liouville superoperator or quantum trajectories. In this approach, the system size is rather limited by current computational capabilities. Analogous to closed-system PT, we develop a PT suitable for open quantum systems. This proposed method is useful in the analytical understanding of open systems as well as in the numerical calculation of system properties, which would otherwise be impractical.

description: Beliefs and values in American farming have been profoundly influenced by the technological revolution of our times. Yet we are often influenced by concepts that were more suitable in the past. Technology has a way of marching faster than beliefs and values can respond, and this creates problems. This report considers how the existing beliefs and values about agriculture arose and how they may be adjusted to the present age. The Protestant ethic of the virtue of work, for example, and the influence of frontier psychology are reviewed. Freedom and independence and the family farm still sway our thinking although they have a different context than in Jefferson's day. Some rugged individualism may have to bow to personal and social responsibility in a modern community.

description: The Galactic orbits of 27 440 stars of all classes with accurate coordinates and parallaxes of more than 3 mas from the Hipparcos catalogue, proper motions from the Tycho-2 catalogue, and radial velocities from the Pulkovo Compilation of Radial Velocities (PCRV) are analyzed. The sample obtained is much more representative than the Geneva-Copenhagen survey and other studies of Galactic orbits in the solar neighborhood. An estimation of the influence of systematic errors in the velocities on orbital parameters shows that the errors of the proper motions due to the duplicity of stars are tangible only in the statistics of orbital parameters for very small samples, while the errors of the radial velocities are noticeable in the statistics of orbital parameters for halo stars. Therefore, previous studies of halo orbits may be erroneous. The distribution of stars in selection-free regions of the multidimensional space of orbital parameters, dereddened colors, and absolute magnitudes is considered. Owing to the large number of stars and the high accuracy of PCRV radial velocities, nonuniformities of this distribution (apart from the well-known dynamical streams) have been found. Stars with their peri- and apogalacticons in the disk, perigalacticons in the bulge and apogalacticons in the disk, perigalacticons in the bulge and apogalacticons in the halo, and perigalacticons in the disk and apogalacticons in the halo have been identified. Thus, the bulge and the halo are inhomogeneous structures, each consisting of at least two populations. The radius of the bulge has been determined as 2 kpc.

The Structuration of Moral Capital and Unethical Behavior: When the Organization Hits an Ethical Meltdown
Creators: name: Langer, David
Publisher: name: Bergische Universität Wuppertal
Year: 2023

description: Recent research depicts the intra-organizational spreading of unethical behavior from different theoretical perspectives. However, no theory accounts for the dynamic social interplay between the individual and the contextual level concerning the spreading of unethical behavior in organizations. Furthermore, there is a lack of concepts covering internal causes and exogenous shocks that can lead to an incremental or sudden spreading of unethical behavior in organizations. This shortcoming limits the practical understanding of business ethics management by not considering the cause and effect between the different levels of analysis and their development over time. This dissertation developed the theory of The Structuration of Moral Capital and Unethical Behavior and an empirically calibrated agent-based model to address the complication in the current research. Based on the outlined theory and considering the use case of goal-setting, a role play in an organization embedded in a web-based 3x3 between-subject design with 1762 participants was conducted. The central empirical results showed that the moral capital scenarios and moral disengagement failed to affect unethical behavior, whereas the goal difficulty provoked unethical behavior. Nonetheless, the key finding of the agent-based modeling was that even with minimal force, moral capital possesses a robust regulatory power to suppress the spreading of unethical behavior, whereas the predicted probabilities of hitting an ethical meltdown were significantly higher in the exogenous shock scenarios. The most crucial implication for business ethics management is establishing and maintaining moral capital as an organizations social structure to prevent the spreading of unethical behavior. Especially business ethics measures targeting an ethical organizational culture are prone to be most successful.

description: The mental health of children and young people has received a lot of attention from researchers and news media in recent years. It is recognised that exposure to stressful events is one of the strongest determinants of psychopathology. Significant distress experienced in childhood in particular may increase the vulnerability to experiencing mental health problems later in life.Literature ReviewThe aim of the review was to explore the literature examining the exposure to adversity among university students in the UK. A total of 29 papers met the inclusion criteria and were synthesised narratively. The prevalence rates of childhood trauma ranged from 26% to 56.2%. The rates of exposure to lifetime adversity ranged from 39% to 88.6%. The findings of this review suggest that a substantial proportion of university students in the UK have been exposed to some form of adversity at some point of their live. There is also evidence that there is a link between adversity exposure and symptoms of psychological distress However, varied definitions and assessment measures used in those papers led to complications in interpretation of these results.Empirical projectThe study investigated the levels of anxiety, depression, resilience, and life satisfaction among pupils attending boarding schools in the UK. A total of 243 participants (94 boarders, 149 day students) from seven boarding schools, completed a set of online questionnaires. The study found possible differences in the levels of psychological distress between boarders and day students, with boarders faring worse on mental health. However, complexities in this relatively small data set, in particular the effects of gender on well-being variables in the context of unequal proportions of males and females in the boarding and day samples, mean that these results should be interpreted with caution.

description: The primordial nucleosinthesys of the element can be influenced by the transitions of phase that take place after the Big Bang, such as the QCD transition. In order to study the effect of this phase transition, in this work we compute the time evolution of thermodynamical quantities of the early universe, focusing on temperature and energy density fluctuations, by solving the relevant equations of motion using as input the lattice QCD equation of state to describe the strongly interacting matter in the early universe plasma. We also study the effect of a primordial strong magnetic field by means of a phenomenological equation of state. Our results show that small inhomogeneities of strongly interacting matter in the early Universe are moderately damped during the crossover.

description: We discuss possible applications of the equations of motion in the generalized Wilson loop space to the phenomenology of the three-dimensional parton distribution functions in the large-$x_B$ approximation. This regime is relevant for future experimental programs to be launched at the (approved) Jefferson Lab 12 GeV upgrade and the (planned) Electron-Ion Collider. We show that the geometrical evolution of the Wilson loops corresponds to the combined rapidity and renormalization-group equation of the transverse-distance dependent parton densities in the large-$x_B$ factorization scheme.

description: Finding efficient and ultrafast ways to control antiferromagnets is believed to be instrumental in unlocking their potential for magnetic devices operating at THz frequencies. Still, it is challenged by the absence of net magnetization in the ground state. Here, we show that the magnetization emerging from a state of coherent spin precession in antiferromagnetic iron borate FeBO$_3$ can be used to enable the nonlinear coupling of light to another, otherwise weakly susceptible, mode of spin precession. This nonlinear mechanism can facilitate conceptually new ways of controlling antiferromagnetism.

description: This thesis describes the results of a variant calling project using data from the TCHL (Trastuzumab, Carboplatin, and Docetaxel, with Lapatinib) breast cancer whole exome sequencing project. Using a data processing pipeline based on the GATK (Genome Analysis Tool Kit) Best Practices Pipeline, variants were called on a total of 34 tumour samples from 25 patients. This included 20 patients where only a pre-treatment sample was taken from that patient, and 5 patients where samples were taken from multiple timepoints across the course of therapy. The whole exome sequencing data were analysed for the presence of known or predicted driver mutations. The subclonal architecture and mutational signatures of the genomes of these samples were also analysed. The cohort showed mutational signature patterns typical of a breast cancer cohort. The genomic landscape of the samples taken from the same patient across multiple timepoints was used to analyse the evolutionary history of the tumours in those patients and how they had evolved in response to therapy. The genomic landscape of samples from patients who showed complete response to therapy is compared to the genomic landscape of patients who did show complete response to therapy. The results of this study highlight the following subjects as promising areas for future study with larger scale cohorts: -The impact of the subclonal complexity of a tumour on the probability it will show complete response to therapy -The impact of the presence of SNVs and indels in RAD50, ARID1B, DHX9, IZF3, TNPO2, UBR5 and TAOK1 on the probability that a tumour will show complete response to therapy

description: W-band (ν ca. 94 GHz) electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy was used for a single-crystal study of a star-shaped Fe3Cr single-molecule magnet (SMM) with crystallographically imposed trigonal symmetry. The high resolution and sensitivity accessible with W-band EPR allowed us to determine accurately the axial zero-field splitting terms for the ground (S =6) and first two excited states (S =5 and S =4). Furthermore, spectra recorded by applying the magnetic field perpendicular to the trigonal axis showed a pi/6 angular modulation. This behavior is a signature of the presence of trigonal transverse magnetic anisotropy terms whose values had not been spectroscopically determined in any SMM prior to this work. Such in-plane anisotropy could only be justified by dropping the so-called 'giant spin approach' and by considering a complete multispin approach. From a detailed analysis of experimental data with the two models, it emerged that the observed trigonal anisotropy directly reflects the structural features of the cluster, i.e., the relative orientation of single-ion anisotropy tensors and the angular modulation of single-ion anisotropy components in the hard plane of the cluster. Finally, since high-order transverse anisotropy is pivotal in determining the spin dynamics in the quantum tunneling regime, we have compared the angular dependence of the tunnel splitting predicted by the two models upon application of a transverse field (Berry-phase interference).
