description: Il contributo è un’indagine preliminare all’edizione critica della Dame escoillee, un fabliau composto intorno alla metà del Duecento che presenta alcuni tratti peculiari rispetto al corpus di appartenenza. L’intento è quello di analizzare i sei testimoni che tramandano il racconto in un’ottica non esclusivamente rivolta all’analisi singolare del testo oggetto d’esame; si intende piuttosto ricavare dalle piú recenti indagini sui recueils di fabliaux alcuni strumenti utili alla comprensione del testo e a una sua piú precisa collocazione nel panorama letterario coevo; di fatto questo panorama era costituito – agli occhi dei suoi primi lettori – dalle sillogi manoscritte: sono queste ultime perciò ad avere fornito il contesto in cui i primi fruitori del racconto l’hanno letto e interpretato. Coniugare l’approccio tradizionale della classificazione dei testimoni nell’edizione di singoli testi a un inquadramento di quegli stessi testi nel complesso dei recueils che li tramandano (con un’attenzione specifica al contesto e alle modalità di fabbricazione dei codici) è forse il metodo piú idoneo a chiarire meglio le dinamiche interne al corpus dei fabliaux, a superare l’errore «di volere a tutti i costi raccogliere in un corpus indifferenziato una congerie di testi» estremamente variegata e sfuggente alle categorie critiche consuete (Tavani 1997: 10).

The contribution proposes an examination of the six manuscripts containing La Dame escoillee, a fabliau probably composed halfway through the 13th century, which is characterized by some peculiarities in comparison with the other texts belonging to the same corpus. The author intends to examine the recueils containing La Dame escoillee to find out some elements useful to the interpretation of the text and to its placing in the contemporary literary and cultural context. This research is based on the method recently applied to the study of fabliaux and their manuscript tradition by an international group of researchers (Universities of Geneva, Montreal, and Zurich): it is preliminary to the critical edition of this specific text, but is also intended to propose a reflection about the modern notion of fabliau and about its applicability and pertinence to the study of the varied and unsettled group of texts which are traditionally grouped together in the same corpus.

description: We present the analysis of the galaxy stellar mass function in different environments at intermediate redshift (0.310^(10.5) M_sun, to study cluster, group, and field galaxies at z=0.3-0.45, and the ESO Distant Cluster Survey (EDisCS), at masses M_ast > 10^(10.2) M_sun, to investigate cluster and group galaxies at z=0.4-0.8. Therefore, in our analysis we include galaxies that are slightly less massive than the Milky Way. Having excluded the brightest cluster galaxies, we show thatthe shape of the mass distribution does not seem to depend on global environment. Our two main results are: (1) Galaxies in the virialized regions of clusters, in groups, and in the field follow a similar mass distribution. (2) Comparing both ICBS and EDisCS mass functions to mass functions in the local Universe, we find evolution from z~0.4-0.6 to z~0.07. The population of low-mass galaxies has proportionally grown with time with respect to that of massive galaxies. This evolution is independent of environment -- the same for clusters and the field. Furthermore, considering only clusters, we find that no differences can be detected neither within the virialized regions, nor when we compare galaxies within and outside the virial radius. Subdividing galaxies in terms of color, in clusters, groups, and field red and blue galaxies are regulated by different mass functions, but comparing separately the blue and red mass functions in different environments, no differences are detected in their shape.

description: Introduction: The quantification of proteins and metabolites in blood can enable phenotyping of disease. However, most analyses are confined to plasma, which can suffer from pre-analytical variability and may not reflect cellular changes relevant to pathobiology. We have previously utilized a 1h microflowLC-MS/MS method to quantify ~1000 proteins from dried blood collected by volumetric absorptive microsampling, and we found that COVID-19 ICU patients exhibited disease-related changes in protein abundance. We are extending this work to PTMs and metabolites for multiomic analysis of sepsis biorepositories.
Methods: Blood was collected from four normal human donors and treated ± phosphatase inhibitors, and twenty microliters were collected on Neoteryx Mitra tips. Mitra tips were subjected to deoxycholate-aided trypsin digestion for 2 h. After deoxycholate precipiatation, ~1 mg of digests were adjusted to binding conditions and enriched for N-glycopeptides and phosphopeptides using dual functional Ti(IV)-IMAC or TiO. LC-MS/MS analyses utilized 15 min nanoflow gradients and DIA or stepped-collision energy DDA on an Exploris 480 for phosphopeptides and glycopeptides, respectively. Metabolites were extracted directly from Mitra tips and analyzed by ZipChip capillary electrophoresis coupled to high-resolution MS/MS. 
Preliminary Results: We developed facile methods for plate-based processing of Mitra tips for PTMs and metabolites. Using a short nanoLC gradient, over 800 N-glycopeptide precursors and 2,900 phosphopeptides were identified. Over 300 phosphopeptides were significantly increased with phosphatase inhibitor, establishing a dynamically-regulated subset of the blood phosphoproteome. Over 200 polar metabolites were quantified using ZipChip CE by alignment against an indexed migration time metabolite library (IROA Technologies). A prototype ZipChip CE with integrated solid phase extraction is being evaluated for highly sensitive analysis of phosphopeptides and glycopeptides.
Conclusions: Multiomic analysis of dried blood can be accomplished in a relatively short amount of time and covers a large biological space that should aid in the phenotyping of sepsis.

description: The quest for experimental platforms that allow for the exploration, and even control, of the interplay of low dimensionality and frustration is a fundamental challenge in several fields of quantum many-body physics, such as quantum magnetism. Here, we propose the use of cold crystals of trapped ions to study a variety of frustrated quantum spin ladders. By optimizing the trap geometry, we show how to tailor the low dimensionality of the models by changing the number of legs of the ladders. Combined with a method for selectively hiding of ions provided by laser addressing, it becomes possible to synthesize stripes of both triangular and Kagome lattices. Besides, the degree of frustration of the phonon-mediated spin interactions can be controlled by shaping the trap frequencies. We support our theoretical considerations by initial experiments with planar ion crystals, where a high and tunable anisotropy of the radial trap frequencies is demonstrated. We take into account an extensive list of possible error sources under typical experimental conditions, and describe explicit regimes that guarantee the validity of our scheme.
Securitization of climate change in Bangladesh : the repercussions of rising sea-levels for human security
Creators: name: Monzur, Rumana
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: Scholars tend to frame environmental problems and climate change as either a separate issue from national security or as loosely embedded in an overarching framework of human security. Since Barry Buzan’s seminal 1991 work, People, States and Fear, which argues that the traditional concept of security is too narrowly defined and is out of touch with reality, scholarship on human security has proliferated. Within the human security literature, environmental issues have received less attention due to their very broad and complex nature, which requires an integrated, horizontal response on the part of both state and non-state actors. This MA thesis seeks to contribute to the small, albeit growing, study of climate change as part of the broader scholarship on human security. Through the case studies of the largest mangrove forest and two major islands in Bangladesh, I argue that Bangladesh’s attempt to securitize climate change has failed on two levels. First, the state has been unable to convince the public at large that rising sea-levels is a long-term threat to national security. Second, the state has failed to incorporate into the securitization process, the communities most vulnerable to sea-level rise. There are at least two important implications of this failure to securitize climate change: it is contributing to shortcomings in short- and long-term adaptation and mitigation strategies, and it is creating new threats to human security. As a result, only minor changes are occurring on the ground to address with impacts of climate change on Bangladeshi’s most vulnerable populations. The inundation of the Sundarbans’s mangrove forest and Sandeep and Kutubdia islands, vividly illustrates the way in which climate change is adversely affecting both the livelihood and security of the people as well as the state of Bangladesh. To respond more effectively to the escalating crisis of climate change, the Bangladeshi government needs to do more to securitize climate change and raise it to the level of a national security threat. By doing so, the state would have a better chance of not only preventing future loss of livelihood, but also manage future security threats brought on by climate change.

Sobre el texto y la Autoría de la comedia «Dineros son calidad»

description: En años recientes la comedia Dineros son calidad ha sido adjudicada a Andrés de Claramonte: la obra se lee en dos testigos antiguos: en la Parte XXIV de las comedias de Lope de Vega (Zaragoza, 1633), y en un manuscrito anónimo de la Biblioteca Nacional de Madrid. Ambos textos están plagados de lagunas y errores, pero la versión del manuscrito parece alejarse más del perfil auténtico de la comedia, constituyendo una refundición parcial donde no es imposible (aunque tampoco se puede demostrar) que haya intervenido Claramonte, mientras que el texto de la Parte, estudiado en sus características textuales (léxicas, estilísticas, métricas, dramáticas) permite considerar muy probable la atribución tradicional a Lope.

In recent years the comedy Dineros son calidad has been attributed to Andrés de Claramonte: the play can be read in two ancient codices: in the Parte XXIV of the comedies by Lope de Vega (Zaragoza, 1633) and in an anonymous manuscript at the National Library of Madrid. Both texts are full of errors and gaps, but the version in the manuscript appears to be farther from the original form of the comedy, and constitutes a partial rewriting where it is not impossible (although it cannot be proven) that Claramonte may have intervened, while the text in the Parte, studied in its textual features (lexical, stylistic, metrical, dramatic) allows to consider the traditional attribution to Lope as highly likely.

description: High-temperature superconductivity remains arguably the largest outstanding enigma of condensed matter physics. The discovery of iron-based high-temperature superconductors has renewed the importance of understanding superconductivity in materials susceptible to magnetic order and fluctuations. Intriguingly they show magnetic fluctuations reminiscent of the superconducting (SC) cuprates, including a 'resonance' and an 'hour-glass' shaped dispersion, which provide an opportunity to new insight to the coupling between spin fluctuations and superconductivity. Here we report inelastic neutron scattering data on Fe$_{1+y}$Te$_{0.7}$Se$_{0.3}$ using excess iron concentration to tune between a SC ($y=0.02$) and a non-SC ($y=0.05$) ground states. We find incommensurate spectra in both samples but discover that in the one that becomes SC, a constriction towards a commensurate hourglass shape develop well above $T_c$. Conversely a spin-gap and concomitant spectral weight shift happen below $T_c$. Our results imply that the hourglass shaped dispersion is most likely a pre-requisite for superconductivity, whereas the spin-gap and shift of spectral weight are consequences of superconductivity. We explain this observation by pointing out that an inwards dispersion towards the commensurate wave-vector is needed for the opening of a spin gap to lower the magnetic exchange energy and hence provide the necessary condensation energy for the SC state to emerge.

description: RIASSUNTO: Caro padre mëo, de vostra laude di Guido Guinizzelli e Figlio mio dilettoso, in faccia laude di Guittone d’Arezzo sono componimenti polemici, costruiti di certo il secondo come risposta al primo, da catalogare a prima vista come polemiche letterarie, ma anche, per il loro tono aggressivo, come veri e propri sirventesi, dedicati al dibattito estetico (Guinizzelli disdegna l’arcaicità di Guittone e Guittone lo stile nuovo di Guinizzelli) e al dibattito morale (Guinizzelli critica la vita ambigua del frate aretino, mentre Guittone stigmatizza l’omaggio troppo impertinente del fondatore del «Dolce stile»).

description: The form of energy termed heat that typically derives from lattice vibrations, i.e. the phonons, is usually considered as waste energy and, moreover, deleterious to information processing. However, with this colloquium, we attempt to rebut this common view: By use of tailored models we demonstrate that phonons can be manipulated like electrons and photons can, thus enabling controlled heat transport. Moreover, we explain that phonons can be put to beneficial use to carry and process information. In a first part we present ways to control heat transport and how to process information for physical systems which are driven by a temperature bias. Particularly, we put forward the toolkit of familiar electronic analogs for exercising phononics; i.e. phononic devices which act as thermal diodes, thermal transistors, thermal logic gates and thermal memories, etc.. These concepts are then put to work to transport, control and rectify heat in physical realistic nanosystems by devising practical designs of hybrid nanostructures that permit the operation of functional phononic devices and, as well, report first experimental realizations. Next, we discuss yet richer possibilities to manipulate heat flow by use of time varying thermal bath temperatures or various other external fields. These give rise to a plenty of intriguing phononic nonequilibrium phenomena as for example the directed shuttling of heat, a geometrical phase induced heat pumping, or the phonon Hall effect, that all may find its way into operation with electronic analogs.

Influence of victim characteristics and crime type on eyewitness recall of perceived stereotypicality
Creators: name: Hutchinson, Shirley May Gallon
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: Previous research in Canada and the United States has shown that activated racial stereotypes about a given crime type can influence an eyewitness’ memory of perceived stereotypicality for the perpetrator of that given crime. Specifically, it has been shown that participants who are exposed to a surveillance video of a highly stereotypical Black crime (i.e., drive-by shooting) falsely recall the perpetrator from the video to be higher on perceived Black stereotypicality than those who are exposed to a surveillance video of a highly stereotypical White crime (i.e., serial killing). Victim characteristics such as the race of the victim (i.e., Black adult males vs. White adult males), in conjunction with crime type, were examined in the current research to determine their influence on the accuracy of eyewitness recall. The perceived deservingness of these victims was also examined. The results replicated and confirmed previous research that has shown how crime type (i.e., drive-by shooting vs. serial killing) can influence an individual’s eyewitness recall of perceived stereotypicality (i.e., M = 54.03 vs. M = 50.18, respectively). In the present research, however, the race of the victim did not exacerbate the effect of the crime type findings. The race of the victim did matter in terms of perceived deservingness, however, with Black adult males being viewed as more deserving of the purported crime than White adult males (i.e., M = 6.90 and M = 4.53, respectively). In the United States alone, eyewitness identification errors account for approximately 75% of all wrongful convictions. Of these wrongful convictions, 70% involve the wrongful conviction of individuals from minority groups. The findings of the present research will not only help to address the issues related to eyewitness (mis)identifications, but will also contribute to educating the public on how these errors may disproportionately impact certain minority groups, and the need for positive change.

By exactly solving the Hamiltonian, we find that the quantum correlation of the ground state of one-dimensional quantum compass model is vanishing. We show that quantum discord can not only locate the quantum critical points, but also discern the orders of phase transitions. Furthermore, entanglement quantified by concurrence is also compared.

Generalized three body problem and the instability of the core-halo objects in binary systems

description: Goal of the presented research is to construct simplified model of the core-halo structures in binary systems. Examples are provided by Thorne-Zytkov objects, hot Jupiters, protoplanets with large moons, red supergiants in binaries and globular clusters with central black hole. Instability criteria due to resonance between internal and orbital frequencies in such a systems has been derived. To achieve assumed goals, generalized planar circular restricted three body problem is investigated with one of the point masses, $M$, replaced with spherical body of finite size. Mechanical system under consideration includes two large masses $m$ and $M$ and the test body with small mass $μ$. Only gravitational interactions are considered. Equations of motion are presented, and linear instability criteria are derived using quantifier elimination. Motion of the test mass $μ$ is shown to be unstable due to resonance between orbital and internal frequencies if $\frac{M}{d^3} < \frac{4}{3} πρ< \frac{ M + 3 m \left( 1+μ/M \right)^{-1}}{d^3}$, where $ρ$ is the central density of mass $M$, and $d$ distance between masses $m$ and $M$ (circular orbit diameter). The above result is important for core-collapse supernova theory, with mass $μ$ identified with helium core of the exploding massive star. The instability cause off-center supernova "ignition" relative to the center-of-mass of the hydrogen envelope. The instability is also inevitable during protoplanet growth, with hypothetical ejection of the rocky core from gas giants and formation of the "puffy planets" due to resonance with orbital frequency. Hypothetical central intermediate black holes of the globular clusters are also in unstable position with respect to perturbations caused by the Galaxy.

description: We extend SO(4,2) covariant lightcone embedding methods of four-dimensional CFTs to N=1 superconformal field theory (SCFT). Manifest superconformal SU(2,2|1) invariance is achieved by realizing 4D superconformal space as a surface embedded in the projective superspace spanned by certain complex chiral supermatrices. Because SU(2,2|1) acts linearly on the ambient space, the constraints on correlators implied by superconformal Ward identities are automatically solved in this formalism. Applications include new, compact expressions for correlation functions containing one anti-chiral superfield and arbitrary chiral superfield insertions, and manifestly invariant expressions for the superconformal cross-ratios that parametrize the four-point function of two chiral and two anti-chiral fields. Superconformal expressions for the leading singularities in the OPE of chiral and anti-chiral operators are also given. Because of covariance, our expressions are valid in any superconformally flat background, e.g., AdS_4 or R times S^3.

description: We generalize the single-field consistency relations to capture not only the leading term in the squeezed limit---going as 1/q^3, where q is the small wavevector---but also the subleading one, going as 1/q^2. This term, for an (n+1)-point function, is fixed in terms of the variation of the n-point function under a special conformal transformation; this parallels the fact that the 1/q^3 term is related with the scale dependence of the n-point function. For the squeezed limit of the 3-point function, this conformal consistency relation implies that there are no terms going as 1/q^2. We verify that the squeezed limit of the 4-point function is related to the conformal variation of the 3-point function both in the case of canonical slow-roll inflation and in models with reduced speed of sound. In the second case the conformal consistency conditions capture, at the level of observables, the relation among operators induced by the non-linear realization of Lorentz invariance in the Lagrangian. These results mean that, in any single-field model, primordial correlation functions of ζare endowed with an SO(4,1) symmetry, with dilations and special conformal transformations non-linearly realized by ζ. We also verify the conformal consistency relations for any n-point function in models with a modulation of the inflaton potential, where the scale dependence is not negligible. Finally, we generalize (some of) the consistency relations involving tensors and soft internal momenta.

description: We show that the energy differences between the lowest optical singlet exciton and the lowest triplet exciton in semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes with diameter $\sim 1$ nm and graphene nanoribbons with widths $\sim 2$ nm are an order of magnitude smaller than in the $π$-conjugated polymer poly(para-phenylenevinylene). Our calculated energy gaps between the singlet and triplet excitons are in excellent agreement with the measured values in three different nanotubes with diameters close to 1 nm. The spatial extent of the triplet exciton is nearly the same as that of the singlet exciton in wide nanotubes and nanoribbons, in contrast to that in $π$-conjugated polymers, in which the triplet exciton exhibits strong spatial confinement. Weakly confined behavior of the triplet state begins in nanoribbons with widths as narrow as 2.5 times the graphene unit lattice vector. We discuss possible consequences of the small singlet-triplet energy difference in the carbon nanostructures on device applications.

description: In this paper, we explore the nature of three-dimensional Bose gases at large positive scattering lengths via resummation of dominating processes involving a minimum number of virtual atoms. We focus on the energetics of the nearly fermionized Bose gases beyond the usual dilute limit. We also find that an onset instability sets in at a critical scattering length, beyond which the near-resonance Bose gases become strongly coupled to molecules and lose the metastability. Near the point of instability, the chemical potential reaches a maximum, and the effect of the three-body forces can be estimated to be around a few percent.

description: In this work, one shows that a specific non-minimal coupling between the scalar curvature and matter can mimic the dark matter component of galaxy clusters. For this purpose, one assesses the Abell cluster A586, a massive nearby relaxed cluster of galaxies in virial equilibrium, where direct mass estimates and strong-lensing determinations are possible. One then extends the dark matter mimicking to a large sample of galaxy clusters whose density profiles are obtained from the Chandra high quality data, also in virial equilibrium. The total density, which generally follows a cusped profile and reveals a very small baryonic component, can be effectively described within this framework.

Alignment of reference frames and an operational interpretation for the G-asymmetry

description: We determine the quantum states and measurements that optimize the accessible information in a reference frame alignment protocol associated with the groups U(1), corresponding to a phase reference, and $\mathbb{Z}_M$, the cyclic group of $M$ elements. Our result provides an operational interpretation for the $G$-asymmetry which is information-theoretic and which was thus far lacking. In particular, we show that in the limit of many copies of the bounded-size quantum reference frame, the accessible information approaches the Holevo bound. This implies that the rate of alignment of reference frames, measured by the (linearized) accessible information per system, is equal to the regularized, linearized $G$-asymmetry. The latter quantity is equal to the number variance in the case where $G=U(1)$. Quite surprisingly, for the case where $G=\mathbb{Z}_{M}$ and $M\geq 4$, it is equal to a quantity that is not additive in general, but instead can be superadditive under tensor product of two distinct bounded-size reference frames. This remarkable phenomenon is purely quantum and has no classical analog.

Nurses' experiences of caring for the older adult in the emergency department

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: The population of those over the age of 65 continues to grow. This cohort is one of the largest consumers of health care and presents with some unique needs and challenges. In a health care environment with fewer family physicians and careful resource allocation many older adults must seek health care in the emergency department (ED). Compared to younger cohorts older adults spend more time in the ED, require more diagnostic tests and are more often admitted and held in the ED until an inpatient bed becomes available. This changing demographic has an impact on ED nurses who must straddle care for incoming emergency patients and boarded inpatients. As the older adult population continues to grow it is important to understand nurses’ experiences of caring for the older adult in this unique venue. This ethnographic study used semi-structured interviews and non-participant observation, to understand nurses’ experiences of caring for older adults in the ED. Seven registered nurses participated in the interview process and detailed their experiences of caring for the older adult in the ED. Interviews were conducted at locations of the nurse’s choice. Data was transcribed verbatim and analyzed thematically. Three themes emerged from the findings: the culture of the ED which focused on priority setting and throughput of patients, fit and lack of fit between the older adult and the ED, and managing lack of fit. Nurses relied on a default orientation of priority setting but recognized this put the older adult at risk of ‘under care’, prolonged length of stay in hospital, and increased risk of mortality and morbidity. The findings of this study have implications for nursing practice, education, and research. ED nurses need to be aware of the needs and the challenges of caring for the older adult in the ED. ED nurses need education on the atypical presentation of older adults to the department. Further research is needed to investigate and develop innovative models for health care delivery for the older adult in the ED. Health care administration needs to look at different models of care delivery for the older adult in the ED.

description: We investigate the phenomenon of integer quantum Hall effect in a square lattice, subjected to a perpendicular magnetic field, through Landauer-Büttiker formalism within the tight-binding framework. The oscillating nature of longitudinal resistance and near complete suppression of momentum relaxation processes are examined by studying the flow of charge current using Landauer-Keldysh prescription. Our analysis for the lattice model corroborates the finding obtained in the continuum model and provides a simple physical understanding.

Alternatively activated macrophages protect mice during induced intestinal inflammation
Creators: name: Weisser, Shelley Bonnie
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is an idiopathic disease characterized by chronic intestinal inflammation and ulceration. Canada has the highest incidence of IBD in the world with 1 in 150 people affected. While treatment options target symptoms and attempt to dampen down inflammation, an increasing population of patients is refractory to current therapeutic options. Macrophages are heterogeneous in their functions and while it is clear that inflammatory macrophages contribute to inflammation in IBD, multiple lines of evidence suggest that alternatively activated macrophages may offer protection during intestinal inflammation. In vivo SHIP deficient mouse macrophages are alternatively activated so SHIP deficient mice provide a unique genetic model of alternative macrophage activation. Using the dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced model of colitis, I found that SHIP-/- mice are protected during induced intestinal inflammation, the protection is macrophage mediated, and can be conferred to a susceptible host. To determine how SHIP contributes to alternative activation of macrophages, I demonstrate that SHIP-deficient murine macrophages are more sensitive to IL-4-mediated skewing to an alternatively activated phenotype. Moreover, SHIP levels are reduced in alternatively activated macrophages and this is required for alternative activation because it is dependent on PI3K activity. Arginase (ArgI) induction is specifically dependent on the PI3Kp110δ isoform of class IA PI3K. As such, mice deficient in PI3Kp110δ catalytic subunit activity have increased clinical disease activity and histological damage during DSS-induced colitis. Colitis severity correlates with reduced numbers of ArgI+ M2 macrophages in the colon, increased nitric oxide production, and is macrophagedependent. Importantly, adoptive transfer of IL-4-treated macrophages from wild type mice, but not from PI3Kp110δ deficient mice, protects mice during DSS-induced colitis. Protection is lost when mice are treated with inhibitors that block arginase activity showing that ArgI activity is required for M2 macrophage-mediated protection from intestinal inflammation. These findings identify SHIP and the PI3K pathway as critical regulators of alternative macrophage activation and as potential targets for manipulation in IBD. In addition, adoptive transfer of alternatively activated macrophages to patients with IBD also offers a promising, new strategy for treatment that may be particularly useful in patients who are refractory to conventional therapies.
Bifurcation analysis of the transition of dune shape under unidirectional wind

description: A bifurcation analysis of dune shape transition is made. By use of a reduced model of dune morphodynamics, dune skeleton model, we elucidate the transition mechanism between different shapes of dunes under unidirectional wind. It was found that the decrease in the total amount of sand in the system and/or the lateral sand flow shifts the stable state from a straight transverse dune to wavy transverse dune through a pitchfork bifurcation. A further decrease causes wavy transverse dunes to shift into barchans through a Hopf bifurcation. These bifurcation structures reveal the transition mechanism of dune shapes under unidirectional wind.

description: We study the physical processes at work at the interface of two thermoelectric generators (TEGs) thermally and electrically connected in series. We show and explain how these processes impact on the system's performance: the derivation of the equivalent electrical series resistance yields a term whose physical meaning is thoroughly discussed. We demonstrate that this term must exist as a consequence of thermal continuity at the interface, since it is related to the variation of the junction temperature between the two TEGs associated in series as the electrical current varies. We then derive an expression for the equivalent series figure of merit. Finally we highlight the strong thermal/electrical symmetry between the parallel and series configurations and we compare our derivation with recent published results for the parallel configuration.
