Annotazioni sulla fenomenologia della tonalità nel pensiero di Giovanni Piana

description: Giovanni Piana's phenomenology of music was directed against any conventionalist point of view about the musical experience. According to Piana, each compositional system depends on the phenomenological structure of sound that determines the musical perception. Tonal system is not prescribed by natural laws, however it is based on the essential difference between consonance and dissonance. So the perceptual meaning of a tonal piece is not founded on subjective (culturally acquired) habitudes, but on phenomenological data.

A spectrum adaptive kernel polynomial method

description: The kernel polynomial method (KPM) is a powerful numerical method for approximating spectral densities. Typical implementations of the KPM require an a prior estimate for an interval containing the support of the target spectral density, and while such estimates can be obtained by classical techniques, this incurs addition computational costs. We propose an spectrum adaptive KPM based on the Lanczos algorithm without reorthogonalization which allows the selection of KPM parameters to be deferred to after the expensive computation is finished. Theoretical results from numerical analysis are given to justify the suitability of the Lanczos algorithm for our approach, even in finite precision arithmetic. While conceptually simple, the paradigm of decoupling computation from approximation has a number of practical and pedagogical benefits which we highlight with numerical examples.

description: The pairing mechanism of high-temperature superconductivity in cuprates remains the biggest unresolved mystery in condensed matter physics. To solve the problem, one of the most effective approaches is to investigate directly the superconducting CuO2 layers. Here, by growing CuO2 monolayer films on Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ substrates, we identify two distinct and spatially separated energy gaps centered at the Fermi energy, a smaller U-like gap and a larger V-like gap on the films, and study their interactions with alien atoms by low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy. The newly discovered U-like gap exhibits strong phase coherence and is immune to scattering by K, Cs and Ag atoms, suggesting its nature as a nodeless superconducting gap in the CuO2 layers, whereas the V-like gap agrees with the well-known pseudogap state in the underdoped regime. Our results support an s-wave superconductivity in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ, which, we propose, originates from the modulation-doping resultant two-dimensional hole liquid confined in the CuO2 layers.

description: We intercalate a van der Waals heterostructure of graphene and hexagonal Boron Nitride with Au, by encapsulation, and show that Au at the interface is two dimensional. A charge transfer upon current annealing indicates redistribution of Au and induces splitting of the graphene bandstructure. The effect of in plane magnetic field confirms that splitting is due to spin-splitting and that spin polarization is in the plane, characteristic of a Rashba interaction with magnitude approximately 25 meV. Consistent with the presence of intrinsic interfacial electric field we show that the splitting can be enhanced by an applied displacement field in dual gated samples. Giant negative magnetoresistance, up to 75%, and a field induced anomalous Hall effect at magnetic fields < 1 T are observed. These demonstrate that hybridized Au has a magnetic moment and suggests the proximity to formation of a collective magnetic phase. These effects persist close to room temperature.

description: We present an analysis of a $190$\,ks (net exposure) \textit{Suzaku} observation, carried out in 2007, of the nearby ($z=0.184$) luminous (L$_{\rm bol}\sim10^{47}$\,erg\,s$^{-1}$) quasar PDS\,456. In this observation, the intrinsically steep bare continuum is revealed compared to subsequent observations, carried out in 2011 and 2013, where the source is fainter, harder and more absorbed. We detected two pairs of prominent hard and soft flares, restricted to the first and second half of the observation respectively. The flares occur on timescales of the order of $\sim50$\,ks, which is equivalent to a light-crossing distance of $\sim10\,R_{\rm g}$ in PDS\,456. From the spectral variability observed during the flares, we find that the continuum changes appear to be dominated by two components: (i) a variable soft component ($<2$\,keV), which may be related to the Comptonized tail of the disc emission, and (ii) a variable hard power-law component ($>2$\,keV). The photon index of the latter power-law component appears to respond to changes in the soft band flux, increasing during the soft X-ray flares. Here the softening of the spectra, observed during the flares, may be due to Compton cooling of the disc corona induced by the increased soft X-ray photon seed flux. In contrast, we rule out partial covering absorption as the physical mechanism behind the observed short timescale spectral variability, as the timescales are likely too short to be accounted for by absorption variability.

Dynamics of ultrarelativistic charged particles with strong radiation reaction. II. Entry into Aristotelian equilibrium

description: As first proposed by Gruzinov, a charged particle moving in strong electromagnetic fields can enter an equilibrium state where the power input from the electric field is balanced by radiative losses. When this occurs, the particle moves at nearly light speed along special directions called the principal null directions (PNDs) of the electromagnetic field. This equilibrium is "Aristotelian" in that the particle velocity, rather than acceleration, is determined by the local electromagnetic field. In paper I of this series, we analytically derived the complete formula for the particle velocity at leading order in its deviation from the PND, starting from the fundamental Landau-Lifshitz (LL) equation governing charged particle motion, and demonstrated agreement with numerical solutions of the LL equation. We also identified five necessary conditions on the field configuration for the equilibrium to occur. In this paper we study the entry into equilibrium using a similar combination of analytical and numerical techniques. We simplify the necessary conditions and provide strong numerical evidence that they are also sufficient for equilibrium to occur. Based on exact and approximate solutions to the LL equation, we identify key timescales and properties of entry into equilibrium and show quantitative agreement with numerical simulations. Part of this analysis shows analytically that the equilibrium is linearly stable and identifies the presence of oscillations during entry, which may have distinctive radiative signatures. Our results provide a solid foundation for using the Aristotelian approximation when modeling relativistic plasmas with strong electromagnetic fields.

description: More than 10.7% of people aged 65 and older are affected by Alzheimer's disease. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial as most Alzheimer's patients are unaware of having it until the effects become detrimental. AI has been known to use magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to diagnose Alzheimer's. However, models which produce low rates of false diagnoses are critical to prevent unnecessary treatments. Thus, we trained supervised Random Forest models with segmented brain volumes and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) outputs to classify different Alzheimer's stages. We then applied out-of-distribution (OOD) detection to the CNN model, enabling it to report OOD if misclassification is likely, thereby reducing false diagnoses. With an accuracy of 98% for detection and 95% for classification, our model based on CNN results outperformed our segmented volume model, which had detection and classification accuracies of 93% and 87%, respectively. Applying OOD detection to the CNN model enabled it to flag brain tumor images as OOD with 96% accuracy and minimal overall accuracy reduction. By using OOD detection to enhance the reliability of MRI classification using CNNs, we lowered the rate of false positives and eliminated a significant disadvantage of using Machine Learning models for healthcare tasks.

Empty smectics of hard nanorings: insights from a second-virial theory

description: Inspired by recent simulations on highly open liquid crystalline structures formed by rigid planar nanorings we present a simple theoretical framework explaining the prevalence of smectic over nematic ordering in systems of ring-shaped objects. The key part of our study is a calculation of the excluded volume of such non-convex particles in the limit of vanishing thickness to diameter ratio. Using a simple stability analysis we then show that dilute systems of ring-shaped particles have a strong propensity to order into smectic structures with an unusual antinematic order while solid disks of the same dimensions exhibit nematic order. Since our model rings have zero internal volume these smectic structures are essential empty, resembling the strongly porous structures found in simulation. We argue that the antinematic intralamellar order of the rings plays an essential role in stabilizing these novel smectic structures.

description: We report the first experimental evidence of Alfvenic ion temperature gradient (AITG) modes in HL-2A Ohmic plasmas. A group of oscillations with $f=15-40$ kHz and $n=3-6$ is detected by various diagnostics in high-density Ohmic regimes. They appear in the plasmas with peaked density profiles and weak magnetic shear, which indicates that corresponding instabilities are excited by pressure gradients. The time trace of the fluctuation spectrogram can be either a frequency staircase, with different modes excited at different times or multiple modes may simultaneously coexist. Theoretical analyses by the extended generalized fishbone-like dispersion relation (GFLDR-E) reveal that mode frequencies scale with ion diamagnetic drift frequency and $η_i$, and they lie in KBM-AITG-BAE frequency ranges. AITG modes are most unstable when the magnetic shear is small in low pressure gradient regions. Numerical solutions of the AITG/KBM equation also illuminate why AITG modes can be unstable for weak shear and low pressure gradients. It is worth emphasizing that these instabilities may be linked to the internal transport barrier (ITB) and H-mode pedestal physics for weak magnetic shear.

Modelli di estetizzazione della politica in Europa

Year: 2020

description: Europe is a complex reality which cannot easily be defined given the fragmentation of the elements that compose it. Actually, the individual cultures have historically been constituted through relatively recent identity rites. In this article some moments of the formation of these identities are examined, relating to the melodrama during the French revolution on one side, and to the nineteenth-century "rites" of German nationalism, on the other. The paper then deals with the Nazism which made a wide use of the same kind of rituality and with some farcical developments in the contemporary Italy. These elements too are linked in various ways to German rituality. In all these cases the aesthetic dimension is eminent as an instrument of government. Its meaning should be deepened.

description: We study the behaviour of one-dimensional strongly dissipative systems subject to a quasi-periodic force. In particular we are interested in the existence of response solutions, that is quasi-periodic solutions having the same frequency vector as the forcing term. Earlier results available in the literature show that, when the dissipation is large enough and a suitable function involving the forcing has a simple zero, response solutions can be proved to exist and to be attractive provided some Diophantine condition is assumed on the frequency vector. In this paper we show that the results extend to the case of arbitrary frequency vectors.

description: The Rosette Nebula is a young stellar cluster and molecular cloud complex, located at the edge of the southern shell of a middle-aged SNR Monoceros Loop (G205.5+0.5). We revisited the GeV gamma-ray emission towards the Rosette Nebula using more than 13 years of Fermi-LAT data. We tested several spatial models and found that compared to the result using the CO gas template only, the inclusion of the HII gas template can significantly improve the likelihood fit. We performed spectral analysis using the new spatial template. With both the gamma-ray observation and CO+HII gas data, we derived the cosmic ray spectrum of different components in the vicinity of the Rosette Nebula. We found the gamma-ray emissions from Rosette Nebula are substantially harder than previously reported, which may imply that Rosette Nebula is another example of a gamma-ray emitting young massive star cluster.

description: We report here the magneto-transport properties of the newly synthesized Heusler compound Cr2NiGa which crystallizes in a disordered cubic B2 structure belonging to Pm-3m space group. The sample is found to be paramagnetic down to 2 K with metallic character. On application of magnetic field, a significantly large increase in resistivity is observed which corresponds to magnetoresistance as high as 112% at 150 kOe of field at the lowest temperature. Most remarkably, the sample shows negative temperature coefficient of resistivity below about 50 K under the application of field gretare than or equal to 80 kOe, signifying a field-induced metal to `insulating' transition. The observed magnetoresistance follows Kohler's rule below 20 K indicating the validity of the semiclassical model of electronic transport in metal with a single relaxation time. A multi-band model for electronic transport, originally proposed for semimetals, is found to be appropriate to describe the magneto-transport behavior of the sample.

description: Condensed matter physics has been driven forward by significant experimental and theoretical progress in the study and understanding of equilibrium phase transitions based on symmetry and topology. However, nonequilibrium phase transitions have remained a challenge, in part due to their complexity in theoretical descriptions and the additional experimental difficulties in systematically controlling systems out of equilibrium. Here, we study a one-dimensional chain of 72 microwave cavities, each coupled to a superconducting qubit, and coherently drive the system into a nonequilibrium steady state. We find experimental evidence for a dissipative phase transition in the system in which the steady state changes dramatically as the mean photon number is increased. Near the boundary between the two observed phases, the system demonstrates bistability, with characteristic switching times as long as 60 ms -- far longer than any of the intrinsic rates known for the system. This experiment demonstrates the power of circuit QED systems for studying nonequilibrium condensed matter physics and paves the way for future experiments exploring nonequilbrium physics with many-body quantum optics.
Western Societal Philosophies and its Relation to Queer Liminality

Publisher: name: figshare
Year: 2023
Subjects: Anthropology of gender and sexuality

description: This research seeks to critically examine the societal constructs prevalent within Western society, focusing on their implications for LGBTQ+ individuals and their liminality. By delving into the complex dynamics of gender, sexuality, and family, this research aims to shed light on the underlying factors that perpetuate separation, stigmatization, and marginalization. A comprehensive analysis of these constructs is crucial to understanding the barriers faced by LGBTQ+ individuals, as well as to pave the way for meaningful societal progress towards inclusivity, acceptance, and equal rights. The significance of this research lies in its potential to inform policymakers, educators, and advocates seeking to create more inclusive and equitable societies. By unraveling the intricate layers of societal constructs, we can challenge prevailing norms, dismantle harmful stereotypes, and work towards fostering a more compassionate and accepting environment for all individuals, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity. Ultimately, this research aims to contribute to the ongoing discourse surrounding LGBTQ+ rights, societal change, and the creation of a more inclusive future for Western society.

description: We consider radial solutions of equations with the $p$-Laplace operator in $R^n$. We introduce a change of variables, which in effect removes the singularity at $r=0$. While solutions are not of class $C^2$, in general, we show that solutions are $C^2$ functions of $\displaystyle r^{\frac{p}{2(p-1)}}$. Then we express the solution as an infinite series in powers of $\displaystyle r^{\frac{p}{p-1}}$, and give explicit formulas for its coefficients. We implement this algorithm, using Mathematica software. Mathematica's ability to perform the exact computations turns out to be crucial.

description: Identifying cohesive subgraphs in hypergraphs is a fundamental problem that has received recent attention in data mining and engineering fields. Existing approaches mainly focus on a strongly induced subhypergraph or edge cardinality, overlooking the importance of the frequency of co-occurrence. In this paper, we propose a new cohesive subgraph named (k,g)-core, which considers both neighbour and co-occurrence simultaneously. The $(k,g)$-core has various applications including recommendation system, network analysis, and fraud detection. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work to combine these factors. We extend an existing efficient algorithm to find solutions for $(k,g)$-core. Finally, we conduct extensive experimental studies that demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of our proposed algorithm.

description: Imre Kertész (Budapest 1929-2016), Hungarian Jewish, was deported to Auschwitz in 1944, and freed in Buchenwald in 1945. For him the concentration camp experience and the reflection on the Shoah were and remain fundamental also in the elaboration of a commitment in favor of Europe. Kertész was indeed very fond of a certain idea of Europe for which he engaged himself with writing his memoirs and his novels and with numerous public lectures. The idea of Europe was dear to him not only in the years of the lager, but also in the era of the so-called "real socialism" and until the end of his days, in which the survival of Europe was already at risk, not only in Hungary. To all these anti-democratic motions he responded with the joy of writing, which gives voice to the values and hopes that despite everything to him (and hopefully for us) remain alive.

description: We consider open quantum walks on a graph, and consider the random variables defined as the passage time and number of visits to a given point of the graph. We study in particular the probability that the passage time is finite, the expectation of that passage time, and the expectation of the number of visits, and discuss the notion of recurrence for open quantum walks. We also study exit times and exit probabilities from a finite domain, and use them to solve Dirichlet problems and to determine harmonic measures. We consider in particular the case of irreducible open quantum walks. The results we obtain extend those for classical Markov chains.

description: We present an expanded study of the performance of FLASH when using Linux Kernel Hugepages on Ookami, an HPE Apollo 80 A64FX platform. FLASH is a multi-scale, multi-physics simulation code written principally in modern Fortran and makes use of the PARAMESH library to manage a block-structured adaptive mesh. Our initial study used only the Fujitsu compiler to utilize standard hugepages (hp), but further investigation allowed us to utilize hp for multiple compilers by linking to the Fujitsu library libmpg and transparent hugepages (thp) by enabling it at the node level. By comparing the results of hardware counters and in-code timers, we found that hp and thp do not significantly impact the runtime performance of FLASH. Interestingly, there is a significant reduction in the TLB misses, differences in cache and memory access counters, and strange behavior is observed when using thp.

description: Today, in the digital age, the mobile devices are more and more used to aid people in the struggle to improve or maintain their health. In this paper, the mobile eHealth solution for remote patient monitoring during clinical trials is presented, together with the outcomes of quantitative and qualitative performance evaluation. The evaluation is a third step to improve the quality of the application after earlier Good Clinical Practice certification and validation with the participation of 10 patients and three general practitioners. This time, the focus was on the usability which was evaluated by the seventeen participants divided into three age groups (18-28, 29-50, and 50+). The results, from recorded sessions and the eye tracking, show that there is no difference in performance between the first group and the second group, while for the third group the performance was worse, however, it was still good enough to complete task within reasonable time.

CPMR: Context-Aware Incremental Sequential Recommendation with Pseudo-Multi-Task Learning

description: The motivations of users to make interactions can be divided into static preference and dynamic interest. To accurately model user representations over time, recent studies in sequential recommendation utilize information propagation and evolution to mine from batches of arriving interactions. However, they ignore the fact that people are easily influenced by the recent actions of other users in the contextual scenario, and applying evolution across all historical interactions dilutes the importance of recent ones, thus failing to model the evolution of dynamic interest accurately. To address this issue, we propose a Context-Aware Pseudo-Multi-Task Recommender System (CPMR) to model the evolution in both historical and contextual scenarios by creating three representations for each user and item under different dynamics: static embedding, historical temporal states, and contextual temporal states. To dually improve the performance of temporal states evolution and incremental recommendation, we design a Pseudo-Multi-Task Learning (PMTL) paradigm by stacking the incremental single-target recommendations into one multi-target task for joint optimization. Within the PMTL paradigm, CPMR employs a shared-bottom network to conduct the evolution of temporal states across historical and contextual scenarios, as well as the fusion of them at the user-item level. In addition, CPMR incorporates one real tower for incremental predictions, and two pseudo towers dedicated to updating the respective temporal states based on new batches of interactions. Experimental results on four benchmark recommendation datasets show that CPMR consistently outperforms state-of-the-art baselines and achieves significant gains on three of them. The code is available at: https://github.com/DiMarzioBian/CPMR.

The Galactic Census of High- and Medium-mass Protostars. III $^{12}$CO Maps and Physical Properties of Dense Clump Envelopes and their Embedding GMCs

description: We report the second complete molecular line data release from the {\em Census of High- and Medium-mass Protostars} (CHaMP), a large-scale, unbiased, uniform mapping survey at sub-parsec resolution, of mm-wave line emission from 303 massive, dense molecular clumps in the Milky Way. This release is for all $^{12}$CO $J$=1$\rightarrow$0 emission associated with the dense gas, the first from Phase II of the survey, which includes $^{12}$CO, $^{13}$CO, and C$^{18}$O. The observed clump emission traced by both $^{12}$CO and HCO$^+$ (from Phase I) shows very similar morphology, indicating that, for dense molecular clouds and complexes of all sizes, parsec-scale clumps contain $Ξ$ ~ 75% of the mass, while only 25% of the mass lies in extended (>~ 10 pc) or "low density" components in these same areas. The mass fraction of all gas above a density 10$^9$ m$^{-3}$ is $ξ_9$ >~ 50%. This suggests that parsec-scale clumps may be the basic building blocks of the molecular ISM, rather than the standard GMC concept. Using $^{12}$CO emission, we derive physical properties of these clumps in their entirety, and compare them to properties from HCO$^+$, tracing their denser interiors. We compare the standard X-factor converting $I_{CO}$ to $N_{H_2}$ with alternative conversions, and show that only the latter give whole-clump properties that are physically consistent with those of their interiors. We infer that the clump population is systematically closer to virial equilibrium than when considering only their interiors, with perhaps half being long-lived (10s of Myr), pressure-confined entities which only terminally engage in vigorous massive star formation, supporting other evidence along these lines previously published.

description: Europe has been a constant theme in the long life of Paul Ricoeur (1913-2005). His biography says that his father and himself were involved in the conflicts between France and Germany during the two World wars of the twentieth century. His philosophical research began with the teaching of Gabriel Marcel and Edmund Husserl, continued with the French spiritualists, Sigmund Freud and the English analytic philosophers. In accordance with his philosophy of the Self as another, his latest writings concern “migrant people” route to Europe.
