description: Aims: By studying the photospheric abundances of 4 RV Tauri stars in the LMC, we test whether the depletion pattern of refractory elements, seen in similar Galactic sources, is also common for extragalactic sources. Since this depletion process probably only occurs through interaction with a stable disc, we investigate the circumstellar environment of these sources. Methods: A detailed photospheric abundance study was performed using high-resolution UVES optical spectra. To study the circumstellar environment we use photometric data to construct the spectral energy distributions of the stars, and determine the geometry of the circumstellar environment, whereas low-resolution Spitzer-IRS infrared spectra are used to trace its mineralogy. Results: Our results show that, also in the LMC, the photospheres of RV Tauri stars are commonly affected by the depletion process, although it can differ significantly in strength from source to source. From our detailed disc modelling and mineralogy study, we find that this process, as in the Galaxy, appears closely related to the presence of a stable Keplerian disc. The newly studied extragalactic objects have similar observational characteristics as Galactic post-AGB binaries surrounded by a dusty disc, and are therefore also believed to be part of a binary system. One source shows a very small infrared excess, atypical for a disc source, but still has evidence for depletion. We speculate this could point to the presence of a very evolved disc, similar to debris discs seen around young stellar objects.

description: We study the active flow around isolated defects and the self-propulsion velocity of $+1/2$ defects in an active nematic film with both viscous dissipation (with viscosity $η$) and frictional damping $Γ$ with a substrate. The interplay between these two dissipation mechanisms is controlled by the hydrodynamic dissipation length $\ell_d=\sqrt{η/Γ}$ that screens the flows. For an isolated defect, in the absence of screening from other defects, the size of the vortical flows around the defect is controlled by the system size $R$. In the presence of friction that leads to a finite value of $\ell_d$, the vorticity field decays to zero on the lengthscales larger than $\ell_d$. We show that the self-propulsion velocity of $+1/2$ defects grows with $R$ in small systems where $R

description: We study the breakdown of diffusive hydrodynamics in holographic systems dual to neutral dilatonic black holes with extremal near horizon geometries conformal to AdS$_2\times\,$R$^2$. We find that at low temperatures by tuning the effective gauge coupling constant in the infra-red, the lowest non-hydrodynamic mode, which collides with the charge diffusive mode and sets the scales at which diffusive hydrodynamics break down, could be either an infra-red mode or a slow mode, resulting in different scaling behaviors of the local equilibrium scales. We confirm that the upper bound for the charge diffusion constant is always satisfied using the velocity and timescale of local equilibration from the pole collision. We also examine the breakdown of hydrodynamics at general temperature and find that the convergence radius has nontrivial dependence on temperature, in addition to the effective gauge coupling constant.

Lowry’s journal form : narrative technique and philosophical design
Creators: name: Slemon, Stephen Guy
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The fictions Malcolm Lowry wrote subsequent to Under the Volcano seem to demonstrate little of the technical expertise he manifests in the earlier work, and one of the few unanimously held findings of his critics is that in Lowry's later fictions something has gone wrong. This thesis explores the "problem" of the later fiction. It shows how Lowry, throughout his writing career, experiments with fictional form, and how each of his later works marks an intermediate point in a process of fictional evolution towards a "new form." This "new form," although never fully realized, is initially shaped in the notebooks Lowry used to record the events which he later transformed into the material of his autobiographical fictions. Lowry's "new form" is in fact a development out of the structure of his notebooks: the journal form. The journal form inherently creates opposing perspectives upon events; conflicting narrative rhythms ensue from this. The "new form" is an ideal Lowry aspires towards: it is intended to structure a new type of realism -- the means by which human beings assimilate and order what has happened to them —• and to contain, and thus make contiguous, Lowry's diverse themes, images, and oppositional narrative technique. Lowry's theoretical approach to the "new form" is discussed in the Introduction. Chronology is then reversed. Chapter I discusses "Ghostkeeper" as Lowry's reflection upon his fictional method. Chapter II approaches "Through the Panama" as Lowry's use of the journal form to unify disparate narrative voices. Chapter III examines and compares the manuscript and the printed version of Dark As the Grave Wherein My Friend Is Laid. It shows that this book is Lowry's first direct experiment with temporal inversions which are used to attempt to reconcile narrative mode with thematic action. Chapter IV demonstrates that Lowry uses an oppositional system as the fictional unifying principle for Under the Volcano, and examines the formal dimensions which Lowry only retrospectively discovers operating in this book. Each chapter focuses upon fictional form and argues that Lowry's themes and narrative techniques grow out of the form he employs. The Conclusion examines Lowry's "new form" in relation to his philosophical outlook, shows how the new form reconciles Lowry's borrowings from Ortega y Gasset and J.W. Dunne and suggests a critical approach that will elucidate the literary and philosophical function of the journal-narrative method.

description: Human-centered systems of systems such as social networks, Internet of Things, or healthcare systems are growingly becoming major facets of modern life. Realistic models of human behavior in such systems play a significant role in their accurate modeling and prediction. Yet, human behavior under uncertainty often violates the predictions by the conventional probabilistic models. Recently, quantum-like decision theories have shown a considerable potential to explain the contradictions in human behavior by applying quantum probability. But providing a quantum-like decision theory that could predict, rather than describe the current, state of human behavior is still one of the unsolved challenges. The main novelty of our approach is introducing an entangled Bayesian network inspired by the entanglement concept in quantum information theory, in which each human is a part of the entire society. Accordingly, society's effect on the dynamic evolution of the decision-making process, which is less often considered in decision theories, is modeled by the entanglement measures. The proposed predictive entangled quantum-like Bayesian network (PEQBN) is evaluated on 22 experimental tasks. Results confirm that PEQBN provides more realistic predictions of human decisions under uncertainty, when compared with classical Bayesian networks and three recent quantum-like approaches.

description: We study and provide efficient algorithms for multi-objective model checking problems for Markov Decision Processes (MDPs). Given an MDP, M, and given multiple linear-time (ω-regular or LTL) properties φ\_i, and probabilities r\_i ε[0,1], i=1,...,k, we ask whether there exists a strategy σfor the controller such that, for all i, the probability that a trajectory of M controlled by σsatisfies φ\_i is at least r\_i. We provide an algorithm that decides whether there exists such a strategy and if so produces it, and which runs in time polynomial in the size of the MDP. Such a strategy may require the use of both randomization and memory. We also consider more general multi-objective ω-regular queries, which we motivate with an application to assume-guarantee compositional reasoning for probabilistic systems. Note that there can be trade-offs between different properties: satisfying property φ\_1 with high probability may necessitate satisfying φ\_2 with low probability. Viewing this as a multi-objective optimization problem, we want information about the "trade-off curve" or Pareto curve for maximizing the probabilities of different properties. We show that one can compute an approximate Pareto curve with respect to a set of ω-regular properties in time polynomial in the size of the MDP. Our quantitative upper bounds use LP methods. We also study qualitative multi-objective model checking problems, and we show that these can be analysed by purely graph-theoretic methods, even though the strategies may still require both randomization and memory.

Musica come Scienza dell'uomo. I caratteri del sapere musicale nel Settecento britannico
Creators: name: Semi, Maria <1981>
Publisher: name: Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna
Year: 2009
Subjects: L-ART/07 Musicologia e storia della musica
M-FIL/04 Estetica

description: The  departure  point  of  the  present work  is  the  idea 
that  in  order  to  understand  what  music  meant  to  British 
society  in  the  Eighteenth-Century  an  interdisciplinary 
approach  is  necessary.  Natural  philosophy,  moral 
philosophy, musical treatises and histories of music: all these 
sources  concur  both  to  the  creation  of  a  new  idea  about 
what music  and  its  ‘science’  are,  and  to  question  the  place 
which music  ought  to  have  in  the  realm  of  the  Science  of 
Man. 
The  dissertation  is  divided  into  two  sections.  In  the 
first  one  we  will  take  into  account  philosophical  sources 
(from John Locke, Joseph Addison and Lord Shaftesbury, to 
Lord Kames  and Adam  Smith),  and we will  examine  their 
thoughts  on  music.  In  the  second  one  we  will  deal  with 
musical  sources  (from  the  Treatise  of  Musick  of  Alexander 
Malcom, to the Histories of Music of Charles Burney and John 
Hawkins)  in  order  to  show  their  connection  with  the 
philosophical literature before mentioned. 
The  main  aim  of  the  work  it  to  show  that  the 
development  of  specific  philosophies  of  the  human mind, 
such  as  the  ones  of  John  Locke  and  David  Hume,  did 
influence  the way  in which music was  thought. Particularly 
we will point out the case of Adam Smith’s interpretation of 
instrumental  music,  which  is  heavily  indebted  to  the 
humeian model of the human mind.

Quantum-classical entropy analysis for nonlinearly-coupled continuous-variable bipartite systems
Creators: name: Sanz, A. S.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The correspondence principle plays a fundamental role in quantum mechanics, which naturally leads us to inquire whether it is possible to find or determine close classical analogs of quantum states in phase space -- a common meeting point to both classical and quantum density statistical descriptors. Here, this issue is tackled by investigating the behavior of classical analogs arising upon the removal of all interference traits displayed by the Wigner distribution functions associated with a given pure quantum state. Accordingly, the dynamical evolution of the linear and von Neumann entropies is numerically computed for a continuous-variable bipartite system, and compared with the corresponding classical counterparts, in the case of two quartic oscillators nonlinearly coupled under regular and chaos conditions. Three quantum states for the full system are considered: a Gaussian state, a cat state, and a Bell-type state. By comparing the quantum and classical entropy values, and particularly their trends, it is shown that, instead of entanglement production, such entropies rather provide us with information on the system (either quantum or classical) delocalization. This gradual loss of information translates into an increase in both the quantum and the classical realms, directly connected to the increase in the correlations between both parties' degrees of freedom which, in the quantum case, is commonly related to the production of entanglement.

A first-passage-time theory for search and capture of chromosomes by microtubules in mitosis

description: The mitotic spindle is an important intermediate structure in eukaryotic cell division, in which each of a pair of duplicated chromosomes is attached through microtubules to centrosomal bodies located close to the two poles of the dividing cell. Several mechanisms are at work towards the formation of the spindle, one of which is the `capture' of chromosome pairs, held together by kinetochores, by randomly searching microtubules. Although the entire cell cycle can be up to 24 hours long, the mitotic phase typically takes only less than an hour. How does the cell keep the duration of mitosis within this limit? Previous theoretical studies have suggested that the chromosome search and capture is optimized by tuning the microtubule dynamic parameters to minimize the search time. In this paper, we examine this conjecture. We compute the mean search time for a single target by microtubules from a single nucleating site, using a systematic and rigorous theoretical approach, for arbitrary kinetic parameters. The result is extended to multiple targets and nucleating sites by physical arguments. Estimates of mitotic time scales are then obtained for different cells using experimental data. In yeast and mammalian cells, the observed changes in microtubule kinetics between interphase and mitosis are beneficial in reducing the search time. In {\it Xenopus} extracts, by contrast, the opposite effect is observed, in agreement with the current understanding that large cells use additional mechanisms to regulate the duration of the mitotic phase.

description: We study the Doppler-cooling of radial two-dimensional (2D) Coulomb crystals of trapped barium ions in a radiofrequency trap. Ions in radial 2D crystals experience micromotion of an amplitude that increases linearly with the distance from the trap center, leading to a position-dependent frequency modulation of laser light in each ion's rest frame. We use two tones of Doppler-cooling laser light separated by approximately 100~MHz to efficiently cool distinct regions in the crystals with differing amplitudes of micromotion. This technique allows us to trap and cool more than 50 ions populating 4 shells in a radial two-dimensional crystal, where with a single tone of Doppler cooling light we are limited to 30 ions in 3 shells. We also individually characterize the micromotion of all ions within the crystals, and use this information to locate the center of the trap and to determine the Matthieu parameters $q_{x}$ and $q_{y}$.

description: We investigate the prompt photon photoproduction at HERA within the framework of kt-factorization QCD approach. Our consideration is based on the off-shell matrix elements for the underlying partonic subprocesses. The unintegrated parton densities in a proton and in a photon are determined using the Kimber-Martin-Ryskin (KMR) prescription. Additionally, we use the CCFM-evolved unintegrated gluon as well as valence and sea quark distributions in a proton. A conservative error analisys is performed. Both inclusive and associated with the hadronic jet production rates are investigated. The theoretical results are compared with the recent experimental data taken by the H1 and ZEUS collaborations. We study also the specific kinematical properties of the photon-jet system which are strongly sensitive to the transverse momentum of incoming partons. Using the KMR scheme, the contribution from the quarks emerging from the earlier steps of the parton evolution is estimated and found to be of 15 - 20 approximately.

UV-divergences of Wilson Loops for Gauge/Gravity Duality
Creators: name: Chu, Chong-Sun

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We analyze the structure of the UV divergences of the Wilson loop for a general gauge/gravity duality. We find that, due to the presence of a nontrivial NSNS B-field and metric, new divergences that cannot be subtracted out by the conventional Legendre transform may arise. We also derive conditions on the B-field and the metric, which when satisfied, the leading UV divergence will become linear, and can be cancelled out by choosing the boundary condition of the string appropriately. Our results, together with the recent result of arXiv:0807.5127, where the effect of a nontrivial dilaton on the structure of UV divergences in Wilson loop is analysed, allow us to conclude that Legendre transform is at best capable of cancelling the linear UV divergences arising from the area of the worldsheet, but is incapable to handle the divergences associated with the dilaton or the B-field in general. We also solve the conditions for the cancellation of the leading linear divergences generally and find that many well-known supergravity backgrounds are of these kinds, including examples such as the Sakai-Sugimoto QCD model or N=1 duality with Sasaki-Einstein spaces. We also point out that Wilson loop in the Klebanov-Strassler background have a divergence associated with the B-field which cannot be cancelled away with the Legendre transform. Finally we end with some comments on the form of the Wilson loop operator in the ABJM superconformal Chern-Simons theory.

A core calculus for the analysis and implementation of biologically inspired languages
Creators: name: Versari, Cristian <1978>
Publisher: name: Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna
Year: 2009
Subjects: INF/01 Informatica

description: The application of Concurrency Theory to Systems Biology 
is in its earliest stage of progress. The metaphor of 
cells as computing systems by Regev and Shapiro
opened the employment of concurrent languages for the
modelling of biological systems. Their peculiar
characteristics led to the design of many bio-inspired
formalisms which achieve higher faithfulness and
speciﬁcity.
  In this thesis we present pi@, an extremely simple and
conservative extension of the pi-calculus representing
a keystone in this respect, thanks to its expressiveness
capabilities. The pi@ calculus is obtained by the addition
of polyadic synchronisation and priority to the
pi-calculus, in order to achieve compartment semantics and
atomicity of complex operations respectively.
  In its direct application to biological modelling, the
stochastic variant of the calculus, Spi@, is shown able to
model consistently several phenomena such as formation
of molecular complexes, hierarchical subdivision of the
system into compartments, inter-compartment reactions, 
dynamic reorganisation of compartment structure consistent
with volume variation.
  The pivotal role of pi@ is evidenced by its capability 
of encoding in a compositional way several bio-inspired
formalisms, so that it represents the optimal core of
a framework for the analysis and implementation of
bio-inspired languages. In this respect, the encodings of
BioAmbients, Brane Calculi and a variant of P
Systems in pi@ are formalised. The conciseness of their
translation in pi@ allows their indirect comparison by
means of their encodings. Furthermore it provides a
ready-to-run implementation of minimal effort whose correctness is granted by the correctness of the respective
encoding functions.
  Further important results of general validity are stated
on the expressive power of priority. Several impossibility
results are described, which clearly state the superior
expressiveness of prioritised languages and the problems
arising in the attempt of providing their parallel
implementation. To this aim, a new setting in distributed
computing (the last man standing problem) is singled out
and exploited to prove the impossibility of providing a
purely parallel implementation of priority by means
of point-to-point or broadcast communication.

Subjects: AGR/15 Scienze e tecnologie alimentari

description: The consumer demand for natural, minimally processed, fresh like and functional food has lead to an increasing interest in emerging technologies.
The aim of this PhD project was to study three innovative food processing technologies currently used in the food sector. Ultrasound-assisted freezing, vacuum impregnation and pulsed electric field have been investigated through laboratory scale systems and semi-industrial pilot plants. Furthermore, analytical and sensory techniques have been developed to evaluate the quality of food and vegetable matrix obtained by traditional and emerging processes.
Ultrasound was found to be a valuable technique to improve the freezing process of potatoes, anticipating the beginning of the nucleation process, mainly when applied during the supercooling phase. 
A study of the effects of pulsed electric fields on phenol and enzymatic profile of melon juice has been realized and the statistical treatment of data was carried out through a response surface method.
Next, flavour enrichment of apple sticks has been realized applying different techniques, as atmospheric, vacuum, ultrasound technologies and their combinations. 
The second section of the thesis deals with the development of analytical methods for the discrimination and quantification of phenol compounds in vegetable matrix, as chestnut bark extracts and olive mill waste water. The management of waste disposal in mill sector has been approached with the aim of reducing the amount of waste, and at the same time recovering valuable by-products, to be used in different industrial sectors. 
Finally, the sensory analysis of boiled potatoes has been carried out through the development of a quantitative descriptive procedure for the study of Italian and Mexican potato varieties. An update on flavour development in fresh and cooked potatoes has been realized and a sensory glossary, including general and specific definitions related to organic products, used in the European project Ecropolis, has been drafted.
Designing Electricity Auctions in the Presence of 
Transmission Constraints

description: This paper analyzes the effect that different designs in the access to fnancial transmission rights has on spot electricity auctions. In particular, I characterize the 
equilibrium in the spot electricity market when financial transmission rights are assigned to the grid operator and when financial transmission rights are assigned to 
the firm that submits the lowest bid in the spot electricity auction. When financial 
transmission rights are assigned to the grid operator, my model, in contrast with the 
models available in the literature, works out the equilibrium for any transmission 
capacity. Moreover, I have found that an increase in transmission capacity not only 
increases competition between markets but also within a single market. When financial transmission rights are assigned to the firm that submits the lowest bid in the 
spot electricity auction, firms compete not only for electricity demand, but also for 
transmission rights and the arbitrage profits derived from its hold. I have found that 
introduce competition for transmission rights reduces competition in spot electricity 
auctions.

description: In the paper, necessary and sufficient conditions are presented for a function involving a ratio of gamma functions to be logarithmically completely monotonic. This extends and generalizes the main result in [\emph{Inequalities and monotonicity for the ratio of gamma functions}, Taiwanese J. Math. \textbf{7} (2003), no.~2, 239\nobreakdash--247.] and others. As applications, several inequalities involving the volume of the unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^n$ are derived, which refine, generalize and extend some known inequalities.

Charged-Current Neutral Pion production at SciBooNE
Creators: name: Catala-Perez, J.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: SciBooNE, located in the Booster Neutrino Beam at Fermilab, collected data from June 2007 to August 2008 to accurately measure muon neutrino and anti-neutrino cross sections on carbon below 1 GeV neutrino energy. SciBooNE is studying charged current interactions. Among them, neutral pion production interactions will be the focus of this poster. The experimental signature of neutrino-induced neutral pion production is constituted by two electromagnetic cascades initiated by the conversion of the neutral pion decay photons, with an additional muon in the final state for CC processes. In this poster, I will present how we reconstruct and select charged-current muon neutrino interactions producing neutral pions in SciBooNE.

Rebellion and democracy : a study of commoners in the popular rights movement of the early Meiji period
Creators: name: Bowen, Roger Wilson
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The thesis is concerned with three so-called "incidents of intense violence" (gekka jiken) that occurred between late 1882 and late 1884: the Fukushima, Kabasan, and Chichibu incidents. All three revolts occurred simultaneous to, and were connected with, the rise and fall of the "freedom and popular rights movement" (jiyu minken undo), especially with its principal institutional expression, the Jiyuto or "Liberal Party." One of the most important of the connections between the revolts and the Jiyuto is that of their overlapping leadership. For the most part, local Jiyuto leaders served as the leaders of these three revolts. Due to this fact, and the other equally important one of the critical extent to which the local Jiyuto leaders embraced the ideological principles of the national Jiyuto—as opposed to the pragmatic, perhaps cynical, approach toward these principles taken by the national leadership—the "natural right" basis of the Liberal's ideology and its corresponding endorsement of the "right of revolution" filtered down to the farmers, hunters, day-labourers and others who participated in these incidents. Notions of "natural right" were used as guiding principles to govern the aims of their revolutionary organisations and as explanations to justify their attempts to overthrow the government. Popular songs, poems, the courtroom testimony of those participants arrested, the content of their revolutionary manifestos, their statements of aims as presented in their organisational charters, the content of lectures given in peasant villages, by local Jiyuto organisers, and the like attest to the beginnings of a strong liberal-democratic undercurrent existing in the early 1880's among Japan's common people (heimin). These findings call into question the conclusions regarding the early failure of democracy in Japan reached by such noted Western scholars as E. H. Norman, Robert Scalapino, and Nobutaka Ike. This is due partly to the fact that each of these scholars analysed Japan's politics of this period almost exclusively at the level of national, elite figures and thereby ignored the impact that the popular rights movement had upon local politics and rural folk. By neglecting local politics, the above-mentioned scholars prematurely drew the conclusion that Japan's common people acted as a collective Atlas who patiently bore the burdens of modernisation upon their peasant backs in obedient silence.
Thermal Friction Enhancement in Zwitterionic Monolayers

description: We introduce a model for zwitterionic monolayers and investigate its tribological response to changes in applied load, sliding velocity, and temperature by means of molecular-dynamics simulations. The proposed model exhibits different regimes of motion depending on temperature and sliding velocity. We find a remarkable increase of friction with temperature, which we attribute to the formation and rupture of transient bonds between individual molecules of opposite sliding layers, triggered by the out-of-plane thermal fluctuations of the molecules' orientations. To highlight the effect of the molecular charges, we compare these results with analogous simulations for the charge-free system. These findings are expected to be relevant to nanoscale rheology and tribology experiments of locally-charged lubricated systems such as, e.g., experiments performed on zwitterionic monolayers, phospholipid micelles, or confined polymeric brushes in a surface force apparatus.

description: We theoretically study chaos synchronization of two lasers which are delay-coupled via an active or a passive relay. While the lasers are synchronized, their dynamics is identical to a single laser with delayed feedback for a passive relay and identical to two delay-coupled lasers for an active relay. Depending on the coupling parameters the system exhibits bubbling, i.e., noise-induced desynchronization, or on-off intermittency. We associate the desynchronization dynamics in the coherence collapse and low frequency fluctuation regimes with the transverse instability of some of the compound cavity's antimodes. Finally, we demonstrate how, by using an active relay, bubbling can be suppressed.

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We study black hole solutions in asymptotically AdS_4 spacetime with scalar hair. Following AdS/CFT dictionary these black holes can be interpreted as thermal states of 2+1 dimensional conformal gauge theory plasma, deformed by a relevant operator. We discover a rich phase structure of the solutions. Surprisingly, we find thermodynamically stable phases with spontaneously broken global symmetries that exist only at high temperatures. These phases are metastable, and join the stable symmetric phase via a mean-field second-order phase transition.
