description: Only the 1/V_max method has been employed so far for observationally determining the white dwarf luminosity function, whereas for other kind of luminosity functions several other methods have been frequently used. Moreover, the procedures to determine the white dwarf luminosity function are not free of biases. These biases have two different origins: they can either be of statistical nature or a consequence of the measurement errors. In a previous paper we carried out an in-depth study of the first category of biases for several luminosity function estimators. In this paper we focus on the biases introduced by the measurement errors and on the effects of the degree of contamination of the input sample used to build the disc white dwarf luminosity function by different kinematical populations. To assess the extent of these biases we use a Monte Carlo simulator to generate a controlled synthetic population and analyse the behaviour of the disc white dwarf luminosity function for several assumptions about the magnitude of the measurement errors and for several degrees of contamination, comparing the performances of the most robust luminosity function estimators under such conditions.

Fondazione Museo Storico del Trentino: A Networked, Multimedia, Participative, Adaptive Model for Curating Cultural Heritage in Mountain Areas
Creators: name: Montanari, Elena
Publisher: name: eum
Year: 2019

description: The geographic conditions of mountain areas have shaped fascinating forms of tangible and intangible heritage, but also remarkable contextual problems, ranging from complicated infrastructural situations – resulting in low levels of employment, abandonment and aging population, as well as relevant difficulties in running local assets – to particularly complex cultural systems – characterized by a delicate balance between the communities’ distinctive identities, physically and culturally protected by natural borders, and the acknowledgment of a shared history. These special contexts solicit peculiar practices for the preservation, management and enhancement of cultural heritage, and are therefore a potentially fertile territory for the experimentation with innovative strategies and tools.

The paper aims at offering an insight on the experience and the best practices designed and developed by the Fondazione Museo Storico del Trentino, in the ten-year anniversary of this institution.

Le aree montuose sono associate a importanti forme di patrimonio, tangibile e intangibile, ma anche a significativi problemi contestuali, legati a limitati sistemi infrastrutturali – a cui conseguono bassi livelli di occupazione, spopolamento, invecchiamento della popolazione e consistenti difficoltà nella gestione del patrimonio locale – e delicati sistemi culturali – connotati da un fragile equilibrio tra le identità delle singole comunità, modellate e protette da bordi naturali, e il senso di appartenenza a una storia e un territorio che li accomunano. La complessità di un simile contesto richiede la progettazione di pratiche innovative per la valorizzazione e promozione del patrimonio, e al contempo lo rende terreno fertile per la sperimentazione di nuovi strumenti e strategie.

Superato il suo decimo anno di vita, l’articolo intende esplorare l’esperienza della Fondazione Museo Storico del Trentino e comprenderne gli aspetti che rendono tale istituzione un esempio virtuoso.

Planning territorial policies against inner areas depopulation in Spain: keys for sustainable management of cultural and environmental resources
Creators: name: Mesa, Leonardo Sánchez
Publisher: name: eum
Year: 2019

description: Abstract

Depopulation is a phenomenon that seriously affects the Spanish rural environment, especially in inner areas of the country. The consequences of this phenomenon have an impact on these communities at all levels, including the management of their cultural and natural heritage. However, this heritage has great potential to contribute to the regeneration of these populations and their economic activity. In this paper, we will first analyze the various sectoral planning instruments that attempt to face the problem of depopulation, in order to evaluate the degree of sensitivity offered towards the needs and the potentialities of cultural heritage. Secondly, we will proceed to assess the level of efficiency of the articulation of these planning instruments. Finally, we will propose guideline principles to achieve a suitable treatment of these resources.

Lo spopolamento è un fenomeno che colpisce fortemente lo sviluppo rurale della Spagna, specialmente nelle aree interne del paese. Le conseguenze di questo fenomeno hanno un impatto su queste comunità a tutti i livelli, incluso quello della gestione del patrimonio culturale e naturale. Tuttavia, proprio il patrimonio culturale può contribuire allo sviluppo dell’economia locale di queste comunità. In questo saggio si analizzeranno innanzitutto i vari strumenti di pianificazione che cercano di affrontare la questione dello spopolamento, per valutare il grado di sensibilità delle risposte alle esigenze e alle potenzialità del patrimonio culturale. In secondo luogo, si procederà ad una valutazione del livello di efficienza dell’articolazione di tali strumenti di pianificazione. In ultimo, verranno indicati alcuni principi fondamentali per ottenere un’adeguata gestione di tali risorse.

description: Cette contribution propose une réinterprétation historico-critique de certains itinéraires intellectuels de l’Anthropologie française. En partant de sa fondation sous le signe de l’éclectisme de Marcel Mauss, puis dans l’opposition entre Marcel Griaule et Michel Leiris, mais surtout par le rayonnement du structuralisme de Claude Levi Strauss : l’extraordinaire patrimoine d’une littérature scientifique sur les diversités y apparait souvent conditionné par son déterminisme anti-historiciste et anti-humaniste. La relecture des textes révèle une spécificité francophone en relation à la littérature et l’analyse de l’écriture ethnographique nous amène à reconsidérer la référence au naturalisme comme stratégie de « désinterlocution » des individus. À rétablir l’équilibre, une grande contribution critique, déjà avec Claude Lefort, puis, et surtout, par George Balandier, Paul Mercier et le dynamisme en tant que pensée anticoloniale. Ainsi l’expérience de recherche au Cameroun devint l’occasion pour réinterroger l’africanisme et ses fantômes coloniaux, condition pour la définition du caractère originaire des relations interculturelles.

description: The application of dexterous robotic hands out of research laboratories has been limited by the intrinsic complexity that these devices present. This is directly reflected as an economically unreasonable cost and a low overall reliability. Within the research reported in this thesis it is shown how the problem of complexity in the design of robotic hands can be tackled, taking advantage of modern technologies (i.e. rapid prototyping), leading to innovative concepts for the design of the mechanical structure, the actuation and sensory systems. The solutions adopted drastically reduce the prototyping and production costs and increase the reliability, reducing the number of parts required and averaging their single reliability factors.
In order to get guidelines for the design process, the problem of robotic grasp and manipulation by a dual arm/hand system has been reviewed. In this way, the requirements that should be fulfilled at hardware level to guarantee successful execution of the task has been highlighted.
The contribution of this research from the manipulation planning side focuses on the redundancy resolution that arise in the execution of the task in a dexterous arm/hand system. In literature the problem of coordination of arm and hand during manipulation of an object has been widely analyzed in theory but often experimentally demonstrated in simplified robotic setup. Our aim is to cover the lack in the study of this topic and experimentally evaluate it in a complex system as a anthropomorphic arm hand system.
Immigration and integration in post-war Canada : a case study of Holocaust survivors in Vancouver, 1947-1970
Creators: name: Gerber, Jean Miriam
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Using as a sample a group of nearly 400 Jewish survivors of the Holocaust who entered Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, between 1947 and 1970, this thesis discusses themes in the history of an ethnic community. The thesis combines oral interviews of survivors with data on their residential, occupational, and affiliational patterns over a twenty-year period, comparing them with the native-born Jewish group. The thesis illustrates the structural factors that led to the rapid integration of the survivors into the existing Jewish community, as well as the shared ideology that brought survivor and host community together. The thesis argues first that survivors already began reconstructing personal and communal lives in the displaced persons camps. Second, it shows that while Canadian immigration policy after World War U blocked large-scale Jewish immigration to Canada, the effect of this policy was to reinforce links between Canadian Jewry and the survivors, so that the survivors entered Canada with strong instrumental ties to the ethnic community. Finally, by examining the residential, occupational, and affiliational ties of immigrants, the thesis demonstrates that, rather than forming separate neighborhoods, occupational networks, and institutions, the survivors integrated into existing patterns already established by the host Jewish group. Survivors not only strengthened institutions already in place but contributed to the ideology of destruction and rebirth now prevalent in North American Judaism.

description: When the planar circular restricted 3-body problem (RTBP) is periodically perturbed, families of unstable periodic orbits break up into whiskered tori, with most tori persisting into the perturbed system. In this study, we 1) develop a quasi-Newton method which simultaneously solves for the tori and their center, stable, and unstable directions; 2) implement continuation by both perturbation as well as rotation numbers; 3) compute Fourier-Taylor parameterizations of the stable and unstable manifolds; 4) regularize the equations of motion; and 5) globalize these manifolds. Our methodology improves on efficiency and accuracy compared to prior studies, and applies to a variety of periodic perturbations. We demonstrate the tools near resonances in the planar elliptic RTBP.

Confederate Statuary: The Difficulty of Preserving Contested Historical Monuments
Creators: name: Buhler, Clinton Jacob
Publisher: name: eum
Year: 2019

description: Removing public monuments from their prominent locations is an act that is likely to cause considerable controversy under most circumstances.  This is particularly true when the ideology those monuments were erected to promote is hotly contested within society.  Throughout the American South, cities and states are grappling with the issue of what to do with Confederate statuary, especially in the current political climate which has highlighted America’s lingering race issues and the violence attached to them.  Russia was faced with a similar issue two decades earlier when the Soviet Union was dismantled, but its monumental propaganda still stood on virtually every street corner and square.  This problem is analyzed in this essay by systematically analyzing these monuments according to their various historical and ideological values, as categorized by the prominent art historical Alois Riegl.  Strategies employed by Russian policymakers in the late twentieth century are analyzed as a potential solution for officials throughout the South as they grapple with the issue today.

La rimozione di monumenti pubblici dalle loro posizioni di rilievo è un atto che può causare considerevoli controversie nella maggior parte delle circostanze. Ciò è particolarmente vero quando l’ideologia che quei monumenti sono stati eretti per promuovere è fortemente contestata all’interno della società. In tutto il Sud Americano, le città e gli stati sono alle prese con il problema di cosa fare con la statuaria confederata, specialmente nell’attuale clima politico che ha messo in evidenza le persistenti questioni razziali in America e la violenza ad esse connessa. La Russia ha dovuto affrontare una questione analoga due decenni prima, quando l’Unione Sovietica fu smantellata, ma la sua monumentale propaganda si trovava ancora praticamente su ogni angolo e piazza. In questo saggio tale problema viene affrontato analizzando sistematicamente questi monumenti in base ai loro vari valori storici e ideologici, come classificato dal noto storico dell’arte Alois Riegl. Le strategie impiegate dai policymaker russi alla fine del XX secolo sono analizzate come una potenziale soluzione per i funzionari di tutto il Sud che stanno affrontando la questione oggi.

description: We study gravitational radiation reaction in the equations of motion for binary systems with spin-orbit coupling, at order (v/c)^7 beyond Newtonian gravity, or O(v/c)^2 beyond the leading radiation reaction effects for non-spinning bodies. We use expressions for the energy and angular momentum flux at infinity that include spin-orbit corrections, together with an assumption of energy and angular momentum balance, to derive equations of motion that are valid for general orbits and for a class of coordinate gauges. We show that the equations of motion are compatible with those derived earlier by a direct calculation.

description: The research area "Virtual Manufacturing (VM)'' is the use of information technology and computer simulation to model real world manufacturing processes for the purpose of analysing and understanding them. As automation technologies such as CAD/CAM have substantially shortened the time required to design products, Virtual Manufacturing will have a similar effect on the manufacturing phase thanks to the modelling, simulation and optimisation of the product and the processes involved in its fabrication. After a description of Virtual Manufacturing (definitions and scope), we present some socio-economic factors of VM and finaly some "hot topics'' for the future are proposed.

description: It is shown that vortices in linearly polarized polariton condensates in planar semiconductor microcavities carry two winding numbers (k,m). These numbers can be either integer or half-integer simultaneously. Four half-integer vortices (1/2,1/2), (-1/2,-1/2), (1/2,-1/2), and (-1/2,1/2) are anisotropic, possess the smallest energy, and define the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition temperature. The condensate concentration remains finite within the core of half-vortex and the polarization becomes fully circular in the core center.

description: A classification of a family of 3-revolute (3R) positining manipulators is established. This classification is based on the topology of their workspace. The workspace is characterized in a half-cross section by the singular curves. The workspace topology is defined by the number of cusps and nodes that appear on these singular curves. The design parameters space is shown to be divided into nine domains of distinct workspace topologies, in which all manipulators have similar global kinematic properties. Each separating surface is given as an explicit expression in the DH-parameters.

description: We present the results of six-epoch Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) observations of 3C~66A. The high-resolution Very Long Baseline Interferometer (VLBI) maps obtained at multi-frequency (2.3, 8.4, and 22.2 GHz) simultaneously enabled us to identify the brightest compact component with the core. We find that the spectrum of the core can be reasonably fitted by the synchrotron self-absorption model. Our VLBA maps show that the jet of 3C~66A has two bendings at about 1.2 and 4 mas from the core. We also give possible identifications of our jet components with the components in previous VLBA observations by analysing their proper motions. We find consistent differences of the position from the core in one component between different frequencies at six epochs.

description: Single-crystalline ferroelectric (FE) perovskites show a large electrocaloric effect at electric field-induced phase transitions, promising for solid-state cooling technologies. However, paraelectric-FE transition temperatures are often too high for practical applications, and lower transitions are underrepresented in literature. Particularly, the role of thermal hysteresis and electric field direction on the caloric response is critical, especially for polycrystalline materials, but not yet fully understood. Using ab initio-based coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations, we show how transition temperatures depend on the direction of the applied field. Also, we reveal that the choice of electric field direction can reduce thermal hysteresis and can adjust the temperature ranges where large and reversible caloric responses occur. Furthermore, we propose a phenomenological descriptor for the qualitative changes in transition temperature with field direction. This descriptor is valid for both BaTiO3 and PbTiO3, even though both materials show different microscopic electric field coupling. Finally, we identify favorable temperature and texturing conditions for large and reversible caloric responses in polycrystals.

description: In local scalar quantum field theories (QFTs) at finite temperature correlation functions are known to satisfy certain non-perturbative constraints, which for two-point functions in particular implies the existence of a generalisation of the standard Källén-Lehmann representation. In this work, we use these constraints in order to derive a spectral representation for the shear viscosity arising from the thermal asymptotic states, $η_{0}$. As an example, we calculate $η_{0}$ in $ϕ^{4}$ theory, establishing its leading behaviour in the small and large coupling regimes.

description:
Previous studies on leading by example have shown how an actor contributing to a public good first can increase the contribution of following actors in social dilemma situations. This paper empirically examines how leading by example of non-state actors, which are key to the transition to a low-carbon society, affects individual climate protection. Specifically, we consider the causal effect of providing information about the past climate protection activities of two non-state actors on donations for climate protection through an incentivized donation scheme. Based on data from a survey of 671 students, we conducted a framed field experiment using different information treatments about climate protection activities of the university and city of residence of the participants. Although our treatments successfully influence beliefs about the climate protection activities of both non-state actors, these beliefs do not significantly increase the individual contributions to climate protection in either treatment group. The analysis of heterogeneity in treatment effects reveals that informing students about climate protection activities of the city significantly increases climate protection activities among individuals with low prior beliefs about the role of cities in climate protection. In contrast, no such heterogeneity is observed for the university. Finally, individual identification with a non-state actor and environmental attitudes do not significantly moderate the treatment effects. These results contrast somewhat with previous studies on the effectiveness of leading by example measures and suggest that a broader understanding of the leader-follower relationship is needed for non-state actors to effectively promote individual climate protection.

We present results on the total charged-current as well as flux-averaged cross sections associated to electron (anti)-neutrino scattering on oxygen, iron, molybdenum and lead, as typical examples. It is shown that by using neutrinos from low energy beta-beams, information on forbidden states, in particular the spin-dipole, could be extracted.

description: The temperature dependence of the mass, leptonic decay constant, and width of heavy-light quark peseudoscalar and vector mesons is obtained in the framework of thermal Hilbert moment QCD sum rules. The leptonic decay constants of both pseudoscalar and vector mesons decrease with increasing $T$, and vanish at a critical temperature $T_c$, while the mesons develop a width which increases dramatically and diverges at $T_c$, where $T_c$ is the temperature for chiral-symmetry restoration. These results indicate the disappearance of hadrons from the spectral function, which then becomes a smooth function of the energy. This is interpreted as a signal for deconfinement at $T=T_c$. In contrast, the masses show little dependence on the temperature, except very close to $T_c$, where the pseudoscalar meson mass increases slightly by 10-20 %, and the vector meson mass decreases by some 20-30 %

Inoltre, il saggio presta attenzione agli epitaffi funebri come genere letterario e non solo come fonte documentaria.

The essay is conceived as a new reading of the monument to Raphael and Annibale Carracci in the roman Pantheon. The text, retracing the history of the raphaelesque foundation, tries, by reading the sources of the seventeenth century, to tell the whole story of its erection in a new key, as already occasionally declared in some contributions. Moreover, the essay gives attention to the funeral epitaphs as a literary genre, and not only as a documentary source.

Squeezed states in a broad Fourier frequency band down to 1 Hz has been observed for the first time. Nonclassical properties of light in such a low frequency band is required for high efficiency quantum information storage in electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) media. The states observed also cover the frequency band of ultra-high precision laser interferometers for gravitational wave detection and can be used to reach the regime of quantum non-demolition interferometry. And furthermore, they cover the frequencies of motions of heavily macroscopic objects and might therefore support the attempts to observe entanglement in our macroscopic world.

We find that the disentanglement of the two qubits is in general enhanced greatly when the environmental spin chain is exposed to QPT. We give a detailed analysis to facilitate the understanding of the QPT-enhanced decaying behavior of the disentanglement factor. Furthermore, the scaling behavior in the disentanglement dynamics is also revealed and analyzed.

Feral children and prisoners of sex : Wang Anyi's Love in a small town
Creators: name: Yaxing, Gu
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The purpose of this thesis is to attempt to prove that the way Wang Anyi approaches sexual love and the insights she finds in the topic in her novella "Love in a Small Town" are unique in the history of Chinese literature. Chapter One seeks to show that the novella is an extended exploration of raw sexual desire and its consequences in the life of two people with very little education and culture. Thus, sex and its related mysteries have become the sole object of Wang's intellectual exploration in "Love in a Small Town". To provide a historic background for Wang's literary exploration, Chapter Two tries to demonstrate that the Chinese have an antiquated and unhealthy attitude both toward sexual relations in real life and the depiction of sexual activities in fiction. Chapter Three deals with the spiritual growth of Wang Anyi in an attempt to account for her peculiar and poignant interest as shown in her literary creation. The thesis concludes that by making an attempt at a Lawrentian set of terminology for describing sexual activities Wang has bridged in a way one of the gaps made by a narrow-minded literary theory between the May Fourth (1919) and "New Period" (Post-Mao) phases in modern Chinese literature. And, by boldly breaking taboos surrounding the subject of sex, Wang effectively draws public attention to the pernicious vestiges of sexual prudishness in the unconscious mind of the Chinese people.

Bionomic Notes. In New Brunswick, A. novaescotiae occurred in decaying sea wrack on sand and gravel with Aleochara (Emplenota) litoralis (Mäklin) on the upper margin of a sea beach. Th is species was reported from similar habitats in Klimaszewski et al. (2006). Adults were collected in May and July. Collection method: sifting. Distribution in Canada and Alaska. NB, NS, NF & LB (Klimaszewski et al. 2006; Majka and Klimaszewski 2008b; Majka and Klimaszewski 2008c). Atheta novaescotiae was first reported as new to New Brunswick by Majka and Klimaszewski (2008b) and Majka and Klimaszewski (2008c) from specimens collected at Mary’s Map 43. Collection localities in New Brunswick, Canada of Atheta novaescotiae. Point (Alberta Co.) on 12 May 2007 and 12 August 2004, respectively. Th e 31 May 2004 record from Mary’s Point establishes an earlier record for New Brunswick. The presence of the species west of Saint John (Chance Harbour) indicates a wider distribution for this species along the Fundy Coast of New Brunswick.

description: Population density varies sharply from place to place on the whole territory of
Poland. The largest number of people per 1 km2 is 21,531, while uninhabited areas account
for about 48% of the country. Such uneven, non-Gaussian distribution of the data causes
some difficulty in choosing the classification method in geometric choropleth maps. A thorough
evaluation of a geometric choropleth map of population data is not possible using
only traditional indicators such as the Tabular Accuracy Index (TAI). That is why the aim
of the article is to develop an innovative index based on distance analysis and neighbour
analysis of grid cells. Two indexes have been suggested in this paper: the Spatial Distance
Index (SDI) and the Spatial Contiguity Index (SCI). The paper discusses the use of five
classification methods to evaluate choropleth maps of population data, like head-tail breaks,
natural breaks, equal intervals, quantile, and geometrical intervals. A comprehensive assessment
of such geometric choropleth maps is also done. The research was conducted for
the whole territory of Poland, using data from the 2011 National Census of Population and
Housing. Population data are presented in the 1km grid. The results of the analysis are
shown on thematic maps. A compatibility of the choropleth maps with urban-rural typology
of the OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) was also
checked.

description: Problem More frequent droughts in summer lead to unreliable forage production for farmers. In addition, farmers highly depend on imported soybean for milk production. Solution Forage production, based on silage maize, can be improved by introducing a mixture of legumes and cereals (oat and vetches) prior to sowing silage maize, creating another source of silage earlier in the season.
Molecular Pairing in Twisted Bilayer Graphene Superconductivity

description: We propose a theory for how the weak phonon-mediated interaction ($J_{\rm A}\!=\!1\!\sim\!4$meV) wins over the prohibitive Coulomb repulsion ($U\!=\!30\!\sim\!60$meV) and leads to a superconductor in magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (MATBG). We find the pairing mechanism akin to that in the A$_3$C$_{60}$ family of molecular superconductors: Each AA stacking region of MATBG resembles a C$_{60}$ molecule, in that optical phonons can dynamically lift the degeneracy of the moiré orbitals, in analogy to the dynamical Jahn-Teller effect. Such induced $J_{\rm A}$ has the form of an inter-valley anti-Hund's coupling and is less suppressed than $U$ by the Kondo screening near a Mott insulator. Additionally, we also considered an intra-orbital Hund's coupling $J_{\rm H}$ that originates from the on-site repulsion of a carbon atom. Under a reasonable approximation of the realistic model, we prove that the renormalized local interaction between quasi-particles must have a pairing (negative) channel in a doped correlated insulator at $ν=\pm(2+δν)$, albeit the bare interaction is positive definite. The proof is non-perturbative and based on exact asymptotic behaviors of the vertex function imposed by Ward identities. Existence of an optimal $U$ for superconductivity is predicted. We also analyzed the pairing symmetry. In a large area of the parameter space of $J_{\rm A}$, $J_{\rm H}$, the ground state has a nematic $d$-wave singlet pairing, which, however, can lead to a $p$-wave-like nodal structure due to the Berry's phase on Fermi surfaces (or Euler obstruction).

Norcia in the historical seismic sources (14th-19th centuries): a reassessment of the reconstruction and post-seismic management
Creators: name: Gigliozzi, Maria Teresa
Publisher: name: eum
Year: 2019

description: The seismic event that devasted Norcia in 2016 leads us to reconsider the history of this town and its urban and architectural transformations, through the phenomena of earthquakes. They are in fact a decisive factor in the development of this urban centre. In the past, major damage had been caused by earthquakes of 1328 and then of 1703, 1730 and 1859. The abundant documentation available for the 18th and 19th centuries provides us with an extraordinary quantity of data on many aspects of these catastrophic events, not only on material damage and consequent reconstructive actions, but also on the perception of those involved more or less directly in the disaster and the emotional impact that the earthquakes provoked. An overview reading of the sources allows us to follow through the building activities of this urban centre, focusing on its peculiar seismic character, which was re-moulded, redesigned and often modified on the basis of the seismic risk.

L’evento sismico che ha colpito Norcia nel 2016 ci porta a riconsiderare la storia di questa città e le sue trasformazioni urbanistiche e architettoniche attraverso la lente dei terremoti. Essi infatti costituiscono un elemento decisivo nello sviluppo di questo centro urbano. In passato, i maggiori danni alla città furono causati dal sisma del 1328 e poi da quelli del 1703, 1730 e del 1859. L’abbondante documentazione conservata per i secoli XVIII e XIX fornisce una straordinaria quantità di dati su molti aspetti, non solo sui danni materiali e le conseguenti azioni ricostruttive, ma anche sulla percezione e l’impatto emotivo che il terremoto esercitò su quanti furono coinvolti più o meno direttamente nel disastro. Una lettura complessiva delle fonti consente di ripercorrere le vicende costruttive del centro urbano guardando proprio al suo aspetto peculiare di “città sismica”, ripetutamente modellata sul rischio tellurico.
