L’innovazione del prodotto culturale in chiave multidimensionale e multistakeholder: il caso del Sistema Parchi Val di Cornia
Creators: name: Cerquetti, Mara
Publisher: name: eum
Year: 2012

description: Il presente contributo prende in esame le politiche di marketing e i processi produttivi messi in atto dal Sistema Parchi Val di Cornia. Pur trattandosi di un caso già ampiamente studiato dalla letteratura di merito archeologico e aziendale come best practice nel campo del management del patrimonio culturale, infatti, scarsa attenzione è stata ad oggi dedicata all’analisi dei fattori di innovatività della comunicazione al pubblico e al possibile sviluppo delle relazioni con gli stakeholder locali.
Dopo aver illustrato il framework teorico di riferimento, avvalendosi di fonti primarie e secondarie, lo studio di caso si sofferma sui principali risultati raggiunti dal Sistema nel corso degli ultimi dieci anni. Successivamente, focalizzando l’attenzione sul processo di applicazione degli standard museali, si prendono in esame gli elementi di distintività delle politiche di prodotto adottate, nonché i benefici conseguiti dall’organizzazione in rete.
Particolarmente innovativi risultano i contenuti della comunicazione al pubblico, attenta alla trasmissione della vasta gamma del valore degli oggetti e all’esplicitazione del loro rapporto con il contesto di provenienza. Punto di forza della gestione è, inoltre, l’efficace collaborazione instaurata tra i diversi soggetti istituzionali coinvolti, da implementare ulteriormente ai fini della sopravvivenza del sistema.

This paper examines the marketing strategies and business process management from “Sistema Parchi Val di Cornia” (Val di Cornia Park System). Even though this case study has been already described in literature on archeology and business economics as an example of best practice in cultural heritage management, little attention has been focused on analysis of the innovativeness of museum communication and the possible development of relationships with local stakeholders.
After clarifying the theoretical framework and by considering primary and secondary data, the case study focuses on the most important results achieved by the System over the last ten years. The paper then focuses on the process of museum standards’ implementation, analysing the distinctiveness of product decisions and advantages of network organization.
Communication contents are particularly innovative because they transmit the broad spectrum of value of cultural items and express the relationship with the original context. A strength of management is also the effective collaboration among different institutional actors, which has to be developed to ensure the System’s survival.

description: Recent advances in Large Language Models (LLMs) have positioned them as a prominent solution for Natural Language Processing tasks. Notably, they can approach these problems in a zero or few-shot manner, thereby eliminating the need for training or fine-tuning task-specific models. However, LLMs face some challenges, including hallucination and the presence of outdated knowledge or missing information from specific domains in the training data. These problems cannot be easily solved by retraining the models with new data as it is a time-consuming and expensive process. To mitigate these issues, Knowledge Graphs (KGs) have been proposed as a structured external source of information to enrich LLMs. With this idea, in this work we use KGs to enhance LLMs for zero-shot Entity Disambiguation (ED). For that purpose, we leverage the hierarchical representation of the entities' classes in a KG to gradually prune the candidate space as well as the entities' descriptions to enrich the input prompt with additional factual knowledge. Our evaluation on popular ED datasets shows that the proposed method outperforms non-enhanced and description-only enhanced LLMs, and has a higher degree of adaptability than task-specific models. Furthermore, we conduct an error analysis and discuss the impact of the leveraged KG's semantic expressivity on the ED performance.

description: L’indagine empirica sul Museo Storico Perugina, significativo caso di museo d’impresa, mostra che rispetto ai musei pubblici, che pure hanno per mission la creazione di valore per la generalità dei cittadini, quelli d’impresa forniscono normalmente un servizio meglio capace di intercettare un’audience ampia e composita e di raggiungere buoni livelli di customer satisfaction. Ciò deriva proprio dal fatto che questi sono finalizzati a creare valore per l’impresa e che, pertanto, si interessano alla valorizzazione e non solo alla conservazione degli oggetti che espongono, prestando attenzione alle aspettative e alle capacità della domanda, alla cultura del servizio e all’implementazione di un efficace marketing relazionale. Ma per cogliere pienamente gli obiettivi d’impresa ad essi assegnati, necessiterebbero delle ulteriori e molteplici innovazioni di prodotto e di processo che questo lavoro si propone di indicare.

The empirical investigation of a significant case of a company museum, the Historical Museum Perugina, shows that compared to public museums, which also have as its mission the creation of value for the majority of citizens, those corporate normally provide a service better able to intercept a large and heterogeneous audience and achieve good levels of customer satisfaction. This stems from the fact that they are designed to create value for the company and that, therefore, are interested not only to the enhancement and conservation of objects that exhibit, paying attention to the expectations and capabilities of the demand,the service culture and the implementation of an effective relationship marketing. But tofully grasp the business objectives assigned to them, they would need further and various product and process innovations that this work aims to indicate.

La valorizzazione del patrimonio culturale ecclesiastico. Un’esperienza marchigiana: il Museo Diocesano di Pesaro
Creators: name: Del Baldo, Mara
Publisher: name: eum
Year: 2012

description: Le istituzioni ecclesiastiche e religiose sono depositarie di un patrimonio immenso di espressioni storiche e artistiche, che rivestono un ruolo del tutto peculiare nella sfera religiosa, come in quella sociale, specie nel nostro Paese. Rispetto alle problematiche di valorizzazione dei beni culturali in genere, e all’opportunità di estendere pratiche manageriali e principi economico-aziendali al governo e alla gestione del patrimonio culturale, la valorizzazione dei beni della Chiesa porta con sé ulteriori criticità e, allo stesso tempo, apre nuove prospettive, a motivo degli elementi distintivi che la caratterizzano.
Lo scopo del lavoro è pertanto quello di identificare, attraverso l’analisi di un caso esemplificativo, i principali aspetti di forza e di debolezza del processo di valorizzazione del patrimonio ecclesiastico italiano e, in particolare, dei musei diocesani, e di proporne una valutazione critica introducendo spunti di riflessioni sulla diffusione di modelli di sviluppo che, in coerenza con le finalità istituzionali di natura pastorale, consentano di perseguire condizioni di economicità, efficienza ed efficacia necessarie ad evitare il rischio che tali realtà museali siano (o restino) confinate nel ruolo di protagonisti minori nel contesto museale e culturale del Paese.

Ecclesiastic and religious institutions are depositories of an immense heritage of historical and artistic expression, that have assumed a very particular role in Italy’s religious and social spheres. Taking into account the problems of governance, management, and the enhancement of cultural heritage in general, as well as the opportunity to extend business economics principles and practices to the management of cultural heritage, enhancing the Church’s heritage comes with some critiques, and, at the same time, opens new prospects, because of the specific elements that characterize it.
Through the analysis of a case study, this work identifies the main strengths and weaknesses of the process of enhancing Italian ecclesiastic heritage and, in particular, that of “diocesan museums”. The paper also proposes a critical evaluation of this process, reflecting on the diffusion of models of development that are coherent with the institutions’ pastoral needs and allow them to pursue the conditions of efficiency and effectiveness necessary to avoid the risk that such museums become (or remain) confined to a minor role in the Country’s broader cultural and museological context.

description: Die Bemühungen und normativen Vorgaben zur Umgestaltung des Bildungssystems sowie zahlreiche damit verbundene Empfehlungen und administrative Vorgaben seitens der KMK sowie der HRK zum Umgang mit Heterogenität in der Schule stellen Lehrkräfte vor große Herausforderungen. Ihnen fehlt es häufig an Förder- und Diagnosekompetenzen sowie entsprechenden Einstel- lungen beim Umgang mit Heterogenität – Befunde, die auch auf curriculare Defizite in der ersten Phase der Lehrkräftebildung zurückzuführen sind. Die in diesem Beitrag vorgestellte Analyse fokussiert daher auf den aktuellen Stand der curricularen Verankerung inklusionsorientierter Inhalte in der Physiklehrer*innenbildung deutscher Hochschulen. Die Datengrundlage bieten Studien- und Prüfungsordnungen sowie Modulhandbücher von Physik-Lehramtsstudiengängen, die via ‚Hochschulkompass‘ der HRK recherchiert und anschließend hinsichtlich bestimmter Begriffe analysiert wurden. Erste Ergebnisse zeichnen dabei ein eher ‚ernüchterndes’ und heterogenes Bild.

description: In large programming classes, it takes a significant effort from teachers to evaluate exercises and provide detailed feedback. In systems programming, test cases are not sufficient to assess exercises, since concurrency and resource management bugs are difficult to reproduce. This paper presents an experience report on static analysis for the automatic evaluation of systems programming exercises. We design systems programming assignments with static analysis rules that are tailored for each assignment, to provide detailed and accurate feedback. Our evaluation shows that static analysis can identify a significant number of erroneous submissions missed by test cases.

description: Il lavoro discute il tema dell’innovazione nelle produzioni artistiche identificando nei modelli partecipati il segno di una innovazione capace di creare valore non solo per l’organizzazione che la mette in opera ma anche per il contesto al cui interno l’organizzazione si muove. Come in altri settori, il mondo delle produzioni artistiche è attraversato da nuove dinamiche di partecipazione e sperimenta forme inedite di creazione del valore. Questo studio cerca di fare un primo passo verso l’analisi di un fenomeno qui colto in tutta la sua eterogeneità e frammentazione, così da fare emergere quella che sembra essere una tendenza trasversale e diffusa in tutto il settore culturale e creativo.
The paper focuses on the study of the innovation issue in arts productions, and identifies the participative model as a form of radical innovation. This model is able to activate a process of value creation, which is meant as not only referring to the single organization implementing it but also to the context which the organisation is based on. As in other contexts, arts productions are deeply affected by these innovative dynamics based on higher levels of participation and openness, thus creating value in different manners.The present study is an attempt to analyse a process which emerges as an heterogeneous and fragmented route, but nevertheless diffused cross the whole spectrum of creative industries.

description: Auf Grundlage der „Sondermaßnahmen zur Gewinnung von Lehrkräften zur Unterrichtsver- sorgung“ (KMK, 2013) sind die Kultusministerien der Bundesländer bemüht, die Differenz zwischen Lehrkräfteeinstellungsbedarf und dem Neuangebot regulär ausgebildeter Lehrkräf- te durch Quer- und Seiteneinsteiger*innen auszugleichen. Einen Überblick über Quer‑ und Seiteneinstiegsprogramme der Länder bieten Abs, Kuper & Martini (2020) (nicht vollstän- dig). Zwar ist eine gute Unterrichtversorgung unverzichtbar, die aktuell hohen Quoten neu- eingestellter Quer- und Seiteneinsteiger*innen werden jedoch als Widerspruch zu Bemühun- gen um die Professionalisierung der Lehrkräftebildung gesehen (Rothland & Pflanzl, 2016; Ramseger, 2017). Grundlage der Kritik bilden unter anderem empirische Forschungsbefun- de, welche einen Aufbau professioneller Kompetenzen im Zuge der universitären Phase der Ausbildung nachweisen (vgl. Kunina-Habenicht (2020) für eine aktuelle Zusammenfas- sung). Da ein Mangel an grundständig ausgebildeten Lehrer*innen auch für die nähere Zu- kunft angenommen wird (KMK, 2019), wird die Einführung von (Mindest-)Standards für die Qualifizierung von nicht-grundständig ausgebildeten Lehrkräften angeregt (Terhart, 2020; GFD, 2018).

Enhancing Social Surveys Through the Postal Collection of Shed Milk Teeth: an Example of a Large-Scale Cost-Effective Collection on a Longitudinal Study

description: Social scientists and health researchers often need valid and reliable health measures from survey respondents to address key research questions, whether on environmental risks, weight and nutrition, physical activity or health / risky behaviours. There are long-standing debates on the validity of self-reported measures of health status and health behaviours in representative sample surveys. Such problems are particularly acute when the health status or behaviour occurred in the past and depends on retrospective recall. Increasingly social surveys are collecting direct biomarkers to provide more precise information on health status and behaviours. While much of this biomarker collection requires clinic visits or in-home nurse visits, some biomarkers are amenable to less costly and intrusive collection.  Shed milk teeth are a good example of a stable biomarker that can provide extensive information on early (including in utero) child environmental and family contexts that may shed valuable light on childhood and adult health and social outcomes. Shed milk teeth are also potentially cheap (and non-intrusive) to collect as well as to store. In this paper we report on the collection of shed milk teeth in a nationally representative sample in the UK using postal methods. We conclude that for surveys involving children and with broad geographical coverage, incorporating the collection of shed milk teeth could prove a cost-effective enhancement, providing valuable environmental, nutritional and health information.

description: A capillary zone electrophoresis method was developed for the determination of NiII(3-OMe-salophene), a substance with anticancer activity in vitro. A fused silica capillary (56 cm × 100 µm) was used for this purpose. The method was optimized in terms of parameters affecting the electrophoretic conditions in order to optimize separation efficiency and total time of migration. The analysis was best performed using an operating buffer of 50 mM borate, adjusted to pH 9.3, mixed with acetonitrile (50%, v/v) as organic modifier. Injections were performed hydrodynamically by applying a pressure of 50 mbar for 8 s, and a 30 kV separation voltage was selected at 25 °C. Detection was carried out at 250 nm using diode array detector (DAD). The method allowed the separation of NiII(3-OMe-salophene) from four other structurally related impurities in a total migration time (tm) of 8 min. Peak identification was achieved using the standard reference of individual impurities. The purity of the migrated NiII(3-OMe-salophene) was confirmed by Ultra-violet (UV) scan overlay depending on DAD. The linear ranges for the determination of NiII(3-OMe-salophene) was 400–20,000 ng mL−1 with limit of detection (LOD) of 120 ng mL−1. Acceptable intra-day and inter-day precisions were achieved (%relative standard deviation (RSD) results were less than 0.76% and 0.30%, respectively). The proposed method was assessed for greenness and compared to reported methodologies to prove superiority.

description: The publication of the module series, The Learning CART, is an effort to involve newcomers and practitioners with CIRCLE's leadership training and education program. The Participation of the collective leaders from the Cambodian, Vietnamese, Russian-speaking, and Tibetan communities in the workshops guided the concept of developing the module series. We thank them for sharing their knowledge, experiences, and culture. This learning module, as well as others in the series, was made possible by the contributions and assistance of many individuals who were part of the Amherst Circle core staff. From design to facilitation to writing, the workshop facilitators of each module kept in mind the spirit of participatory education for learners engaged in skill building and consciousness raising. Others involved in the design and production of the series considered the readers who may use the modules and tailor them to specific cultural contexts as well as to individual needs, learning styles, and experiences.
description: Today's leaders must understand their role as enablers who help people to change their lives and communities. They must recognize that people are responsible for their own development and rely on non-directive guidance to facilitate community action. Enabling leaders are concerned with coordinated efforts and productive performance by the group they work with and have traits and skills which integrate individual needs into collective goals. Perhaps most importantly, enabling leaders have the ability to develop leadership potential in people. This module addresses fundamental issues and dynamics in working as a group for collective action. It begins by familiarizing participants with key concepts of group need, function, role and dynamic. By doing exercises which use metaphors and puzzles, participants learn that group building requires maintaining a team spirit while getting a task done. The second segment highlights two major topics in group dynamics: communication and conflict resolution. Overview of concepts and approaches to these topics were briefly discussed, but participants learn to build their skills by enacting sociodramas, observing a skit, and doing role plays.

Year: 2016
Subjects: Web survey; instrument design

description: This paper reports on a series of experiments to explore ways to use the technology of Web surveys to help respondents provide well-formed answers to questions that may be difficult to answer. Specifically, we focus on the use of drop-down or select lists and JavaScript lookup tables as alternatives to open text fields for the collection of information on prescription drugs. The first two experiments were conducted among members of opt-in panels in the U.S. The third experiment was conducted in the 2013 Health and Retirement Study Internet Survey. Respondents in each of the studies were randomly assigned to one of three input methods: text field, drop box, or JavaScript lookup, and asked to provide the names of prescription drugs they were taking. We compare both the quality of answers obtained using the three methods, and the effort (time) taken to provide such answers. We examine differences in performance on the three input format types by key respondent demographics and Internet experience. We discuss some of the technical challenges of implementing complex question types and offer some recommendations for the use of such tools in Web surveys.

description: Following the introduction of the West Nile virus (WNV) into eastern Germany in 2018, increasing infections have been diagnosed in birds, equines, and humans over time, while the spread of WNV into western Germany remained unclear. We screened 437 equine sera from 2018 to 2020, excluding vaccinated horses, collected from convenience sampled patients in the eastern and western parts of Germany, for WNV-specific antibodies (ELISAs followed by virus/specific neutralization tests) and genomes (RT-qPCRs). Clinical presentations, final diagnoses, and demographic data were also recorded. In the eastern part, a total of eight horses were found WNV seropositive in 2019 (seroprevalence of 8.16%) and 27 in 2020 (13.77%). There were also two clinically unsuspected horses with WNV-specific antibodies in the western part from 2020 (2.63%), albeit travel history-related infections could not be excluded. None of the horse sera contained WNV-specific genomes. Eight horses in eastern Germany carried WNV-IgM antibodies, but only four of these showed typical clinical signs. These results underline the difficulty of detecting a WNV infection in a horse solely based on clinical signs. Thus, WNV circulation is established in the horse population in eastern Germany, but not yet in the western part.

description: Background: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an irreversible lung fibrotic disorder of unknown cause. It has been reported that bacterial and viral co-infections exacerbate disease pathogenesis. These pathogens use adhesion molecules such as platelet activating factor receptor (PAFR) and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM–1) to gain cellular entry, causing infections. Methods: Immunohistochemical staining was carried out for lung resections from IPF patients (n = 11) and normal controls (n = 12). The quantification of PAFR and ICAM–1 expression is presented as a percentage in the small airway epithelium. Also, type 2 pneumocytes and alveolar macrophages were counted as cells per mm2 of the parenchymal area and presented as a percentage. All image analysis was done using Image Pro Plus 7.0 software. Results: PAFR expression significantly increased in the small airway epithelium (p < 0.0001), type 2 pneumocytes (p < 0.0001) and alveolar macrophages (p < 0.0001) compared to normal controls. Similar trend was observed for ICAM–1 expression in the small airway epithelium (p < 0.0001), type 2 pneumocytes (p < 0.0001) and alveolar macrophages (p < 0.0001) compared to normal controls. Furthermore, the proportion of positively expressed type 2 pneumocytes and alveolar macrophages was higher in IPF than in normal control. Conclusions: This is the first study to show PAFR and ICAM–1 expression in small airway epithelium, type 2 pneumocytes and alveolar macrophages in IPF. These findings could help intervene microbial impact and facilitate management of disease pathogenesis.

description: Dietary quality and sustainability are central matters to the international community, emphasised by the burden of the COVID-19 pandemic. To promote healthier and more sustainable food-related practices, the protocol of a web-based intervention to enhance adults’ food literacy is presented. The FOODLIT-Trial is a two-arm, parallel, experimental, and single-blinded randomised controlled trial delivered over 11 weeks. Based on the Food Literacy Wheel framework and supported by the Health Action Process Approach (HAPA) and the Behaviour Change Techniques Taxonomy, weekly content with customised behaviour change techniques (experimental group) is hypothesised to be more effective to promote food behaviour change when compared to a single-time and non-customised delivery of food-related international guidelines, with no theoretically informed approaches (comparison group). Primary outcome is food literacy, including food-related knowledge, skills, and behaviours, assessed with the FOODLIT-Tool; a secondary outcome includes psychological mechanisms that efficaciously predict change in participants’ food literacy, measured with HAPA-driven items. Enlisted through online sources, participants will be assessed across five time points (baseline, post-intervention, and 3-, 6-, and 9-month follow-ups, i.e., T0–T4). A randomisation check will be conducted, analyses will follow an intention-to-treat approach, and linear two-level models within- (T0–T4) and between-level (nested in participants) will be computed, together with a longitudinal mediation analysis. If effective, the FOODLIT-Trial will provide for a multidimensional and cost-effective intervention to enable healthier and more sustainable food practices over the long term.

description: Recently, an autosomal recessive subtype of connective tissue disorder within the spectrum of Ehlers–Danlos syndrome (EDS), named classical-like EDS type 2 (clEDS2), was identified. clEDS2 is associated with biallelic variants in the adipocyte enhancer binding protein 1 (AEBP1) gene, specifically, affecting its aortic carboxypeptidase-like protein (ACLP) isoform. We described the 15th patient (13th family) diagnosed with clEDS2. This patient presented with notable similarities in phenotype to the documented cases, along with additional characteristics such as significant prematurity and short stature. An EDS sequencing panel-based analysis revealed homozygous AEBP1: NM_001129.5:c.2923del, p.Ala975Profs*22 likely pathogenic variants, and maternally inherited heterozygous COL11A1: NM_001854.4:c.1160A>G, p.Lys387Arg variant of uncertain significance in our patient. Upon comprehensive review of all previously reported clEDS2 patients, our patient exhibited the following overlapping phenotypes, including cutaneous features: hyperextensibility, atrophic scars/delayed wound healing (100%), easy bruising (100%), excessive skin (93%); skeletal features: generalized joint hypermobility (93%), pes planus (93%), dislocation/subluxation (93%); and cardiovascular features (86%). Our patient did not display symptoms of the critical complications reported in a few individuals, including superior mesenteric artery aneurysms and ruptures, aortic root aneurysm/dissection, spontaneous pneumothoraxes, and bowel ruptures. Together, this case expands the genetic and clinical phenotypic spectrum of AEBP1-related clEDS2.

description: Termination of the fractional quantum Hall states (FQHSs) and the emergence of Wigner crystal phases at very small Landau level filling factors ($ν$) have been of continued interest for decades. Recently, in ultra-high-quality, dilute GaAs 2D electron systems (2DESs), strong evidence was reported for FQHSs at $ν=1/7, 2/13$ and 2/11 which fall in the $ν= p/(6p\pm1)$ Jain series of FQHSs, interpreted as integer ($p = 1$, 2) QHSs of 6-flux composite fermions ($^6$CFs). These states are surrounded by strongly-insulating phases which are generally believed to be Wigner crystals. Here, we study an ultra-high-quality 2DES confined to an AlAs quantum well where the 2D electrons have a much larger effective mass ($m^*\simeq 0.45 m_e$) and a smaller dielectric constant ($ε\simeq10ε_0$) compared to GaAs 2D electrons ($m^*\simeq 0.067 m_e$ and $ε\simeq13ε_0$). This combination of $m^*$ and $ε$ renders the Landau level mixing parameter $κ$, defined as the ratio of the Coulomb and cyclotron energies, $\simeq 9$ times larger in AlAs 2DESs ($κ\propto m^*/ε$). Qualitatively similar to the GaAs 2DESs, we observe an insulating behavior reentrant around a strong $ν=1/5$ FQHS, and extending to $ν<1/5$. Additionally, we observe a clear minimum in magnetoresistance at $ν=2/11$, and an inflection point at $ν=1/7$ which is very reminiscent of the first report of an emerging FQHS at $ν=1/7$ in GaAs 2DESs. The data provide evidence for developing QHSs of $^6$CFs at very small fillings. This is very surprising because $κ$ near $ν\simeq 1/6$ in our sample is very large ($\simeq4$), and larger $κ$ has the tendency to favor Wigner crystal states over FQHSs at small fillings. Our data should inspire calculations that accurately incorporate $κ$ in competing many-body phases of $^6$CFs at extremely small fillings near $ν=1/6$.

Mechanistic Characterization of the Pharmacological Profile of HS-731, a Peripherally Acting Opioid Analgesic, at the µ-, δ-, κ-Opioid and Nociceptin Receptors

description: Accumulated preclinical and clinical data show that peripheral restricted opioids provide pain relief with reduced side effects. The peripherally acting opioid analgesic HS-731 is a potent dual μ-/δ-opioid receptor (MOR/DOR) full agonist, and a weak, partial agonist at the κ-opioid receptor (KOR). However, its binding mode at the opioid receptors remains elusive. Here, we present a comprehensive in silico evaluation of HS-731 binding at all opioid receptors. We provide insights into dynamic interaction patterns explaining the different binding and activity of HS-731 on the opioid receptors. For this purpose, we conducted docking, performed molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and generated dynamic pharmacophores (dynophores). Our results highlight two residues important for HS-731 recognition at the classical opioid receptors (MOR, DOR and KOR), particular the conserved residue 5.39 (K) and the non-conserved residue 6.58 (MOR: K, DOR: W and KOR: E). Furthermore, we assume a salt bridge between the transmembrane helices (TM) 5 and 6 via K2275.39 and E2976.58 to be responsible for the partial agonism of HS-731 at the KOR. Additionally, we experimentally demonstrated the absence of affinity of HS-731 to the nociceptin/orphanin FQ peptide (NOP) receptor. We consider the morphinan phenol Y1303.33 responsible for this affinity lack. Y1303.33 points deep into the NOP receptor binding pocket preventing HS-731 binding to the orthosteric binding pocket. These findings provide significant structural insights into HS-731 interaction pattern with the opioid receptors that are important for understanding the pharmacology of this peripheral opioid analgesic.

description: Bodies and glazes of tiles from the Ilkhanid period found at the UNESCO World Heritage site of Takht-e Soleyman were studied to identify materials and certain technical characteristics of the architectural ceramics as part of a larger project to establish different productions. In addition, ceramic vessels and technical ceramics excavated at the site were analysed for comparison. µXRF, SEM/EDX, and Raman spectroscopy were used for the material investigations. Qualitative non-invasive µXRF results allowed for categorisation of the glazes and ceramic bodies based on their overall composition. Quantitative analysis by SEM/EDX on a subset of the samples delivered detailed results on the bodies and glazes. Tiles, made from clay or stonepaste, were almost exclusively decorated with a mixed alkaline lead glaze. The PbO content of this type of glaze ranged from 8 wt% to 25 wt%. The clay bodies of some tiles corresponded to the material of the locally used kiln furniture. Moreover, glaze residues preserved on the kiln furniture proved to be from a mixed lead alkaline glaze with a PbO content of 15 wt% to 25 wt%, a composition that is comparable to the tiles’ glazes. For more insights into the local or regional production of the tiles, supplementary in-depth studies including petrographic analysis would be needed to confirm and further specify the results.

description: Supernova shocks into dense molecular cores in IC 443 (clumps B, C, and G) and 3C 391 were observed using the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy and complemented by archival data from the Herschel Space Observatory. The pure rotational transitions 0-0 S(1) and S(5) of H2, and the ground-state 110-101 transition of H2O, are all broadened, arising from molecules that survive the passage of the shock front. Theoretical models from the Paris-Durham shock code were analyzed to generate synthetic profiles that approximately match the observations. The observations can be fit with two shock conditions, which approximate the range of densities in the pre-shock molecular cloud. The width and brightness of the S(5) lines require shocks into gas with a density of order 2,000 cm-3, into which the IC 443 blast wave drives shocks with speed 60 km/s. The brightness and narrower width of the S(1) lines requires different shocks, into gas with density of order 10^5 cm-3, with shock speeds of 10 km/s. The H2O velocity distribution is also consistent with these shocks. The existence of shocks into dense gas shows that the bright shocked clumps in IC~443 were prestellar cores. It is unlikely that they will form stars soon after the passage of the shock front, given the input of kinetic and thermal energy from the shocks.

Publisher: name: eum
Year: 2012

description: Il contributo presenta un recente convegno multi-disciplinare, ideato per riflettere sulle ricadute scientifiche e didattiche del progetto Judaica Europeana, promosso per raccogliere le testimonianze della cultura ebraica come ulteriore fonte del portale web europeo della Commissione europea. Il volume degli atti documenta il possibile e fruttuoso dialogo tra studiosi di vari ambiti disciplinari, impegnati nella ricerca scientifica come nell'attività di tutela e promozione culturale, nella convinzione che ricerca e valorizzazione (anche nello specifico della cultura ebraica) siano assolutamente inscindibili. La prima parte del volume raccoglie indagini che, interrogandosi prima di tutto sullo statuto dei cosiddetti Jewish studies, dimostrano come la cultura ebraica possa essere analizzata attraverso una straordinaria varietà di fonti, dirette o indirette. La seconda parte discute – anche dal punto di vista metodologico e attraverso diverse best practice – le possibilità di socializzare, divulgare e ri/usare le conoscenze acquisite nella pratica della ricerca e della tutela dei beni culturali, anche alla luce delle più aggiornate tecnologie digitali.

The paper presents a recent multi-disciplinary conference, organised in Fermo to reflect on the impact of Judaica Europeana project on research and education. The project collected resources of Jewish culture in Europe as an additional source to the web portal of the European Commission. The proceedings of Fermo conference documents the possible, fruitful dialogue among scholars of different disciplines, engaged both in scientific research and in the activities of preservation and promotion of cultural heritage. The premise was that research and management in the field of cultural heritage are absolutely inseparable. The first part of the book present research results showing that Jewish culture can be analyzed through an extraordinary variety of direct or indirect sources. The second part discusses - from a methodological point of view and presenting different best practices - the chance to socialize, communicate and re / use the knowledge gained in the practice of research and the preservation of cultural heritage, especially adopting the latest digital technologies.
