description: Аденомиоз – одно из самых распространенных заболеваний, занимающее третье место в структуре гинекологических заболеваний после воспалительных заболеваний и миомы матки. Цель исследования – провести сравнительное изучение клинических проявлений аденомиоза в зависимости от глубины расположения эндометриоидных гетеротопий в толще миометрия и выраженности гиперплазии перифокальной лейомиомы. В исследование было включено 30 женщин в пременопаузе с диагнозом аденомиоз, которые были разделены на две группы. Женщины первой группы имели более благоприятные показатели, в отличие от женщин второй группы. Осложнения и рецидивы кровотечений чаще наблюдались у женщин второй группы.

description: This lecture provides us with Newtonian approaches for the interpretation of two puzzling cosmological observations that are still discussed subject : a bulk flow and a foam like structure in the distribution of galaxies. For the first one, we model the motions describing all planar distortions from Hubble flow, in addition of two classes of planar-axial distortions with or without rotation, when spatial distribution of gravitational sources is homogenous. This provides us with an alternative to models which assume the presence of gravitational structures similar to Great Attractor as origin of a bulk flow. For the second one, the model accounts for an isotropic universe constituted by a spherical void surrounded by a uniform distribution of dust. It does not correspond to the usual embedding of a void solution into a cosmological background solution, but to a global solution of fluid mechanics. The general behavior of the void expansion shows a huge initial burst, which freezes asymptotically up to match Hubble expansion. While the corrective factor to Hubble law on the shell depends weakly on cosmological constant at early stages, it enables us to disentangle significantly cosmological models around redshift z ~ 1.7. The magnification of spherical voids increases with the density parameter and with the cosmological constant. An interesting feature is that for spatially closed Friedmann models, the empty regions are swept out, what provides us with a stability criterion.

description: We study quantum gravity in more than four dimensions by means of an exact functional flow. A non-trivial ultraviolet fixed point is found in the Einstein-Hilbert theory. It is shown that our results for the fixed point and universal scaling exponents are stable. If the fixed point persists in extended truncations, quantum gravity in the metric field is asymptotically safe. We indicate physical consequences of this scenario in phenomenological models with low-scale quantum gravity and large extra dimensions.

description: We study the quadratic resource allocation problem and its variant with lower and upper constraints on nested sums of variables. This problem occurs in many applications, in particular battery scheduling within decentralized energy management (DEM) for smart grids. We present an algorithm for this problem that runs in $O(n \log n)$ time and, in contrast to existing algorithms for this problem, achieves this time complexity using relatively simple and easy-to-implement subroutines and data structures. This makes our algorithm very attractive for real-life adaptation and implementation. Numerical comparisons of our algorithm with a subroutine for battery scheduling within an existing tool for DEM research indicates that our algorithm significantly reduces the overall execution time of the DEM system, especially when the battery is expected to be completely full or empty multiple times in the optimal schedule. Moreover, computational experiments with synthetic data show that our algorithm outperforms the currently most efficient algorithm by more than one order of magnitude. In particular, our algorithm is able to solves all considered instances with up to one million variables in less than 17 seconds on a personal computer.

description: Recent numerical relativistic results demonstrate that the merger of comparable-mass spinning black holes has a maximum ``recoil kick'' of up to $\sim 4000 \kms$. However the scaling of these recoil velocities with mass ratio is poorly understood. We present new runs showing that the maximum possible kick perpendicular to the orbital plane does not scale as $\simη^2$ (where $η$ is the symmetric mass ratio), as previously proposed, but is more consistent with $\simη^3$, at least for systems with low orbital precession. We discuss the effect of this dependence on galactic ejection scenarios and retention of intermediate-mass black holes in globular clusters.

description: We consider a magnetic impurity in two different S=1/2 Heisenberg bilayer antiferromagnets at their respective critical inter-layer couplings separating N'eel and disordered ground states. We calculate the impurity susceptibility using a quantum Monte Carlo method. With intra-layer couplings in only one of the layers (Kondo lattice), we observe an anomalous Curie constant C*, as predicted on the basis of field-theoretical work [S. Sachdev et al., Science 286, 2479 (1999)]. The value C*=0.262 +/- 0.002 is larger than the normal Curie constant C=S(S+1)/3. Our low-temperature results for the symmetric bilayer are consistent with a universal C*.

A massive blow for $Λ$CDM $-$ the high redshift, mass, and collision velocity of the interacting galaxy cluster El Gordo contradicts concordance cosmology

description: El Gordo (ACT-CL J0102-4915) is an extremely massive galaxy cluster ($M_{200} \approx 3 \times 10^{15}$ $M_{\odot}$) at redshift $z = 0.87 $ composed of two subclusters with mass ratio 3.6 merging at speed $V_{infall} \approx 2500$ km/s. Such a fast collision between individually rare massive clusters is unexpected in Lambda cold dark matter ($Λ$CDM) cosmology at such high $z$. However, this is required for non-cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of the merger to match its observed properties (Zhang et al. 2015). Here, we determine the probability of finding a similar object in a $Λ$CDM context using the Jubilee simulation box with side length $6 \, h^{-1}$ Gpc. We search for galaxy cluster pairs that have turned around from the cosmic expansion with properties similar to El Gordo in terms of total mass, mass ratio, redshift, and collision velocity relative to virial velocity. We fit the distribution of pair total mass quite accurately, with the fits used in two methods to infer the probability of observing El Gordo in the surveyed region. The more conservative (and detailed) method involves considering the expected distribution of pairwise mass and redshift for analogue pairs with similar dimensionless parameters to El Gordo in the past lightcone of a $z = 0$ observer. Detecting one pair with its mass and redshift rules out $Λ$CDM cosmology at $6.16σ$. We also use the results of Kraljic & Sarkar (2015) to show that the Bullet Cluster is in $2.78σ$ tension once the sky coverage of its discovery survey is accounted for. Using a $χ^2$ approach, the combined tension can be estimated as $6.43 σ$. Both collisions arise naturally in a Milgromian dynamics (MOND) cosmology with light sterile neutrinos.

This improves on previous results which were either dimension-dependent or required that i be drawn from a known distribution.

description: The hot Intra-Cluster Medium (ICM) in clusters of galaxies is a very large repository of metals produced by supernovae. We aim to accurately measure the abundances in the ICM of many clusters and compare these data with metal yields produced by supernovae. Using the data archive of the XMM-Newton X-ray observatory, we compile a sample of 22 clusters. We fit spectra extracted from the core regions and determine the abundances of silicon, sulfur, argon, alcium, iron, and nickel. The abundances from the spectral fits are subsequently fitted to supernova yields determined from several supernova type Ia and core-collapse supernova models. We find that the argon and calcium abundances cannot be fitted with currently favoured supernova type Ia models. We obtain a major improvement of the fit, when we use an empirically modified delayed-detonation model that is calibrated on the Tycho supernova remnant. The two modified parameters are the density where the sound wave in the supernova turns into a shock and the ratio of the specific internal energies of ions and electrons at the shock. Our fits also suggest that the core-collapse supernovae that contributed to the enrichment of the ICM had progenitors which were already enriched. The Ar/Ca ratio in clusters is a good touchstone for determining the quality of type Ia models. The core-collapse contribution, which is about 50% and not strongly dependent on the IMF or progenitor metallicity, does not have a significant impact on the Ar/Ca ratio. The number ratio between supernova type Ia and core-collapse supernovae suggests that binary systems in the appropriate mass range are very efficient (~ 5-16%) in eventually forming supernova type Ia explosions.

The Perception of American Adolescent Culture Through the Dubbing and Fansubbing of a Selection of US Teen Series from 1990 to 2013

description: The present dissertation aims at analyzing the construction of American adolescent culture through teen-targeted television series and the shift in perception that occurs as a consequence of the translation process. In light of the recent changes in television production and consumption modes, largely caused by new technologies, this project explores the evolution of Italian audiences, focusing on fansubbing (freely distributed amateur subtitles made by fans for fan consumption) and social viewing (the re-aggregation of television consumption based on social networks and dedicated platforms, rather than on physical presence). These phenomena are symptoms of a sort of ‘viewership 2.0’ and of a new type of active viewing, which calls for a revision of traditional AVT strategies. Using a framework that combines television studies, new media studies, and fandom studies with an approach to AVT based on Descriptive Translation Studies (Toury 1995), this dissertation analyzes the non-Anglophone audience’s growing need to participation in the global dialogue and appropriation process based on US scheduling and informed by the new paradigm of convergence culture, transmedia storytelling, and affective economics (Jenkins 2006 and 2007), as well as the constraints intrinsic to multimodal translation and the different types of linguistic and cultural adaptation performed through dubbing (which tends to be more domesticating; Venuti 1995) and fansubbing (typically more foreignizing). The study analyzes a selection of episodes from six of the most popular teen television series between 1990 and 2013, which has been divided into three ages based on the different modes of television consumption: top-down, pre-Internet consumption (Beverly Hills, 90210, 1990 – 2000), emergence of audience participation (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, 1997 – 2003; Dawson’s Creek, 1998 – 2003), age of convergence and Viewership 2.0 (Gossip Girl, 2007 – 2012; Glee, 2009 – present; The Big Bang Theory, 2007 - present).
A first-principles comparison of the electronic properties of MgC_{y}Ni_{3} and ZnC_{y}Ni_{3} alloys

description: First-principles, density-functional-based electronic structure calculations are employed to study the changes in the electronic properties of ZnC_{y}Ni_{3} and MgC_{y}Ni_{3} using the Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker coherent-potential approximation method in the atomic sphere approximation (KKR-ASA CPA). As a function of decreasing C at%, we find a steady decrease in the lattice constant and bulk modulus in either alloys. However, the pressure derivative of the bulk modulus displays an opposite trend. Following the Debye model, which relates the pressure derivative of the bulk modulus with the average phonon frequency of the crystal, it can thus be argued that ZnCNi_{3} and its disordered alloys posses a different phonon spectra in comparison to its MgCNi_{3} counterparts. This is further justified by the marked similarity we find in the electronic structure properties such as the variation in the density of states and the Hopfield parameters calculated for these alloys. The effects on the equation of state parameters and the density of states at the Fermi energy, for partial replacement of Mg by Zn are also discussed.

description: We introduce a fast and robust algorithm for finding a plane $Γ$ with given normal $\vec{n}_Γ$, which truncates an arbitrary polyhedron $\mathcal{P}$ such that the remaining sub-polyhedron admits a given volume $α|\mathcal{P}|$. In the literature, this is commonly referred to as Volume-of-Fluid (VoF) interface positioning problem. The novelty of our work is twofold: firstly, by recursive application of the Gaussian divergence theorem, the volume of a truncated polyhedron can be computed at high efficiency, based on summation over quantities associated to the faces of the polyhedron. One obtains a very convenient piecewise parametrization (within so-called brackets) in terms of the signed distance s to the plane $Γ$. As an implication, one can restrain from the costly necessity to establish topological connectivity, rendering the present approach most suitable for the application to unstructured computational meshes. Secondly, in the vicinity of the truncation position s, the volume can be expressed exactly, i.e. in terms of a cubic polynomial of the normal distance to the PLIC plane. The local knowledge of derivatives enables to construct a root-finding algorithm that pairs bracketing and higher-order approximation. The performance is assessed by conducting an extensive set of numerical experiments, considering convex and non-convex polyhedra of genus (i.e., number of holes) zero and one in combination with carefully selected volume fractions $α$ (including $α\approx0$ and $α\approx1$) and normal orientations $\vec{n}_Γ$. For all configurations we obtain a significant reduction of the number of (computationally costly) truncations required for the positioning: on average, our algorithm requires between one and two polyhedron truncations to find the position of the plane $Γ$, outperforming existing methods.

description: We have investigated the radio emission from the anomalous X-ray pulsar 1E 1547.0-5408 (PSR J1550-5418) using the Parkes telescope and the Australia Telescope Compact Array. The flux density of the pulsar is roughly the same between 1.4 and 45 GHz, but shows time variability. The radiation is nearly 100% linearly polarized between frequencies of 45 and 3.2 GHz, but from 2.3 to 1.4 GHz it becomes increasingly more depolarized. The rotation measure of -1860 rad/m^2 is the largest for any known pulsar, and implies an average magnetic field strength along the line of sight of 2.7 microG. The pulse profiles are circularly polarized at all frequencies observed, more so at lower frequencies, at the ~15% level. The observed swing of the position angle of linear polarization as a function of pulse phase suggests that in this neutron star the rotation and magnetic axes are nearly aligned, and that its radio emission is only detectable within a small solid angle. Timing measurements indicate that the period derivative of this 2 s pulsar has increased by nearly 40% in a 6-month period. The flat spectrum and variability in flux density and pulse profiles are reminiscent of the properties of XTE J1810-197, the only other known radio-emitting magnetar, and are anomalous by comparison with those of ordinary radio pulsars.

description: We construct and analyse Kerr black holes (BHs) with synchronised axionic hair. These are the BH generalisations of the recently constructed rotating axion boson stars arXiv:2005.05982. Such BHs are stationary, axially symmetric, asymptotically flat solutions of the complex Einstein-Klein-Gordon theory with a QCD axion-like potential. They are regular everywhere on and outside the event horizon. The potential is characterised by two parameters: the mass of the axion-like particle, $m_a$ and the decay constant $f_a$. The limit $f_a \rightarrow \infty$ recovers the original example of Kerr BHs with synchronised scalar hair arXiv:1403.2757. The effects of the non-linearities in the potential become important for $f_a \lesssim 1$. We present an overview of the parameter space of the solutions together with a study of their basic geometric and phenomenological properties, for an illustrative value of the coupling that yields a non-negligible impact of the self-interactions.

The quantization error in a Self-Organizing Map as a contrast and colour specific indicator of single-pixel change in large random patterns

description: The quantization error in a fixed-size Self-Organizing Map (SOM) with unsupervised winner-take-all learning has previously been used successfully to detect, in minimal computation time, highly meaningful changes across images in medical time series and in time series of satellite images. Here, the functional properties of the quantization error in SOM are explored further to show that the metric is capable of reliably discriminating between the finest differences in local contrast intensities and contrast signs. While this capability of the QE is akin to functional characteristics of a specific class of retinal ganglion cells (the so-called Y-cells) in the visual systems of the primate and the cat, the sensitivity of the QE surpasses the capacity limits of human visual detection. Here, the quantization error in the SOM is found to reliably signal changes in contrast or colour when contrast information is removed from or added to the image, but not when the amount and relative weight of contrast information is constant and only the local spatial position of contrast elements in the pattern changes. While the RGB Mean reflects coarser changes in colour or contrast well enough, the SOM-QE is shown to outperform the RGB Mean in the detection of single-pixel changes in images with up to five million pixels. This could have important implications in the context of unsupervised image learning and computational building block approaches to large sets of image data (big data), including deep learning blocks, and automatic detection of contrast change at the nanoscale in Transmission or Scanning Electron Micrographs (TEM, SEM), or at the subpixel level in multispectral and hyper-spectral imaging data.

In the first part of the Thesis the encounter of the international terrorism before and after the events of 11th September of 2001 is considered and the issue to legalize the Security Council to impose sanctions on individuals, as well. Τhe second part of the Thesis examines the Security Council resolutions binding nature on the European Union, too. The objective of the Thesis is to describe thoroughly the sanctions regime about the fighting against the international terrorism and investigate if the described sanctions are binding or not for the EU. The achievement of the objective set by this Thesis will be realised through the assessment of the Court of First Instance and the European Court of Justice (CFI and ECJ) decisions about the Kadi case and the International Law experience about this particular issue, as well. Eventually, the aim of the Thesis is to attempt to give an answer to the following challenging question: is there a single legal system (monism) or several legal systems that affect each other (duality)?

description: Ramsey's method of separated oscillatory fields is applied to the excitation of the cyclotron motion of short-lived ions in a Penning trap to improve the precision of their measured mass. The theoretical description of the extracted ion-cyclotron-resonance line shape is derived out and its correctness demonstrated experimentally by measuring the mass of the short-lived $^{38}$Ca nuclide with an uncertainty of $1.6\cdot 10^{-8}$ using the ISOLTRAP Penning trap mass spectrometer at CERN. The mass value of the superallowed beta-emitter $^{38}$Ca is an important contribution for testing the conserved-vector-current hypothesis of the electroweak interaction. It is shown that the Ramsey method applied to mass measurements yields a statistical uncertainty similar to that obtained by the conventional technique ten times faster.

Investigation of the Helium Enhancement in a Super Lithium Rich Giant HD 77361

description: In this work, the helium-enhancement (He-enhancement) in the lithium-rich (Li-rich) K-giant HD 77361 is investigated using the strengths of the MgH band and the MgI lines. The detailed abundance analysis and also the synthesis of the MgH band and the Mg I lines has been carried out for HD 77361. One would expect, within uncertainties, same Mg abundance from both the MgH and Mg I lines. But, we found that Mg abundance derived from MgH lines is significantly less than the abundance from Mg I lines, and this difference cannot be reconciled by changing the stellar parameters within the uncertainties, implying He enhancement in star's photosphere. The He enhancement in the atmospheres is estimated by using models of different He/H ratios so that both the lines, MgH as well as Mg I, return the same Mg abundance for the adopted model's He/H ratio. We found He/H=0.4+/-0.1 as the value for HD 77361, the normal value of He/H=0.1. Knowing the amount of He-enhancement in the Li-rich giants is a strong clue for understanding the scenarios responsible for the Li and He enrichment. The analysis and results are discussed.

description: I review both well established and more recent findings on the properties of bars, and their host galaxies, stemming from photometric and spectroscopic observations, and discuss how these findings can be understood in terms of a global picture of the formation and evolution of bars, keeping a connection with theoretical developments. In particular, I show the results of a detailed structural analysis of ~ 300 barred galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, providing physical quantities, such as bar length, ellipticity and boxyness, and bar-to-total luminosity ratio, that can either be used as a solid basis on which realistic models can be built, or be compared against more fundamental theoretical results. I also show correlations that indicate that bars grow longer, thinner and stronger with dynamical age, and that the growth of bars and bulges is connected. Finally, I briefly discuss open questions and possible directions for future research.

Cosmological phase transitions: is effective field theory just a toy?

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: To obtain a first order phase transition requires large new physics corrections to the Standard Model (SM) Higgs potential. This implies that the scale of new physics is relatively low, raising the question whether an effective field theory (EFT) description can be used to analyse the phase transition in a (nearly) model-independent way. We show analytically and numerically that first order phase transitions in perturbative extensions of the SM cannot be described by the SM-EFT. The exception are Higgs-singlet extension with tree-level matching; but even in this case the SM-EFT can only capture part of the full parameter space, and if truncated at dim-6 operators, the description is at most qualitative. We also comment on the applicability of EFT techniques to dark sector phase transitions.

HST/STIS Spectroscopy and Modeling of the Long Term Cooling of WZ Sagittae following the July 2001 Outburst

description: We present the last HST/STIS E140M FUV spectrum (1150-1725A) of the dwarf nova (DN) WZ Sge, obtained in July 2004, 3 years following the early superoutburst of July 2001. Single white dwarf (WD) synthetic spectral fits (log{g}=8.5) to the data indicate that the WD has a temperature T~15,000K, about ~1500K above its quiescent temperature and it is still showing the effect of the outburst. Taking into account temperature estimates of the earlier phase of the cooling, we model the cooling curve of WZ Sge, over a period of 3 years, using a stellar evolution code including accretion and the effects of compressional heating. Assuming that compressional heating alone is the source of the energy released during the cooling phase, we find that (1) the mass of the white dwarf must be quite large (~1.0 Msun); and (2) the mass accretion rate must have a time-averaged (over 52 days of outburst) value of the order of 1.E-8 Msun/yr or larger. The outburst mass accretion rate derived from these compressional heating models is larger than the rates estimated from optical observations and from a FUV spectral fit by up to one order of magnitude. This implies that during the cooling phase the energy released by the WD is not due to compressional heating alone.
