description: The survey description and the near-, mid-, and far-infrared flux properties are presented for the 258 galaxies in the Local Volume Legacy (LVL). LVL is a Spitzer Space Telescope legacy program that surveys the local universe out to 11 Mpc, built upon a foundation of ultraviolet, H-alpha, and HST imaging from 11HUGS (11 Mpc H-alpha and Ultraviolet Galaxy Survey) and ANGST (ACS Nearby Galaxy Survey Treasury). LVL covers an unbiased, representative, and statistically robust sample of nearby star-forming galaxies, exploiting the highest extragalactic spatial resolution achievable with Spitzer. As a result of its approximately volume-limited nature, LVL augments previous Spitzer observations of present-day galaxies with improved sampling of the low-luminosity galaxy population. The collection of LVL galaxies shows a large spread in mid-infrared colors, likely due to the conspicuous deficiency of 8um PAH emission from low-metallicity, low-luminosity galaxies. Conversely, the far-infrared emission tightly tracks the total infrared emission, with a dispersion in their flux ratio of only 0.1 dex. In terms of the relation between infrared-to-ultraviolet ratio and ultraviolet spectral slope, the LVL sample shows redder colors and/or lower infrared-to-ultraviolet ratios than starburst galaxies, suggesting that reprocessing by dust is less important in the lower mass systems that dominate the LVL sample. Comparisons with theoretical models suggest that the amplitude of deviations from the relation found for starburst galaxies correlates with the age of the stellar populations that dominate the ultraviolet/optical luminosities.

Studying the Feasibility and Importance of Software Testing: An Analysis

description: Software testing is a critical element of software quality assurance and represents the ultimate review of specification, design and coding. Software testing is the process of testing the functionality and correctness of software by running it. Software testing is usually performed for one of two reasons: defect detection, and reliability estimation. The problem of applying software testing to defect detection is that software can only suggest the presence of flaws, not their absence (unless the testing is exhaustive). The problem of applying software testing to reliability estimation is that the input distribution used for selecting test cases may be flawed. The key to software testing is trying to find the modes of failure - something that requires exhaustively testing the code on all possible inputs. Software Testing, depending on the testing method employed, can be implemented at any time in the development process.

L'espressione dell'enzima Indoleamina 2,3-Diossigenasi come meccanismo immunoregolatore in cellule dentritiche normali e leucemiche

description: L’enzima indoleamina 2,3-diossigenasi (IDO) catalizza la conversione dell’aminoacido essenziale triptofano in chinurenine. Questa proprietà conferisce a IDO la capacità di inibire la risposta immunitaria sia causando la deplezione dal microambiente di triptofano, che è necessario ai linfociti T per proliferare ed espandersi, sia producendo metaboliti che possono causare l’apoptosi dei linfociti T.
Nel presente studio è stata indagata la funzione di IDO in cellule dendritiche normali e leucemiche. 
Lo studio dell’espressione di IDO in cellule dendritiche normali ha permesso di osservare che, quando immature, IDO è poco espresso, mentre durante la maturazione IDO viene up-regolato. In particolare, l’incremento nell’espressione di IDO non è strettamente legato al livello di maturazione, ma alla qualità dello stimolo maturativo. Infatti uno stimolo endogeno come il ligando di CD40 ha una scarsa efficacia nell’up-regolazione di IDO, uno stimolo batterico come l’LPS ha un’efficacia intermedia, mentre uno stimolo rappresentato da citochine pro-infiammatorie ha un’efficacia massima. L’espressione di IDO risulta direttamente propozionale alla produzione di chinurenine, all’inibizione della proliferazione dei linfociti T e all’induzione di una popolazione di linfociti T regolatori.
Lo studio dell’espressione di IDO in cellule dendritiche leucemiche ha permesso di osservare che IDO è espresso a un livello intermedio nelle cellule dendritiche leucemiche immature e viene up-regolato durante la maturazione. La conseguenza principale dell’espressione di IDO in cellule dendritiche leucemiche è l’induzione di una popolazione di linfociti T regolatori fortemente in grado di limitare sia la risposta CD4+ che la risposta CD8+ anti-leucemica e capaci di inibire la maturazione di altre cellule dendritiche.
Nel complesso, i dati emersi da questo studio hanno permesso di concludere che, in cellule dendritiche normali, IDO rappresenta un meccanismo tollerogenico la cui intensità di espressione è correlata all’intensità dello stimolo attivatorio da controbilanciare, a cui è sottoposta la cellula dendritica. Nelle cellule dendritiche leucemiche IDO rappresenta un meccanismo di tumor-escape in grado di inibire l’attivazione di cellule dendritiche, linfociti CD4+ e linfociti CD8+.

Circular dichroism of emergent chiral stacking orders in quasi-one-dimensional charge density waves

description: Chirality-driven optical properties in charge density waves are of fundamental and practical importance. Here, we investigate the interaction between circularly polarized light and emergent chiral stacking orders in quasi-one-dimensional (quasi-1D) charge-density waves (CDW) with density-functional theory calculations. In our specific system, self-assembled In nanowires on Si(111) surface, spontaneous mirror symmetry breaking leads to symmetrically distinct four degenerate quasi-1D CDW structures, which exhibit geometrical chirality. Such geometrical chirality may naturally induce optically active phenomena even when the quasi-1D CDW structures are stacked perpendicular to the CDW chain direction. Indeed, we find that left- and right-chiral stacking orders show distinct circular dichroism responses while a nonchiral stacking order does no circular dichroism. Such optical responses are attributed to the existence of glide mirror symmetry of the CDW stacking orders. Our findings suggest that the CDW chiral stacking orders can lead to diverse active optical phenomena such as chirality-dependent circular dichroism, which can be observed in scanning tunneling luminescence measurements with circularly polarized light.

description: Capitalism today is not exactly what it used to be. The classics
used to see it as a production machine which produced a surplus from which the owners paid the interest to the banks which financed it. Today the greater part of the interest does not come from that source but from governments, development countries, and from consumers and home owners directly. [...] There is evidently a striking analogy between this problem
and the problems of a permanent budget deficit considered further
above. In both cases there is a continuing accumulation of debt
which is not "covered" by assets in the productive sector. And in
both cases there is an extraction of interest payments which are
not paid out of the surplus and which tend automatically to lead
to further accumulation of debt. In fact, the budget problem is
only one part or one aspect or example of the more general problem which is presumably deeper in so far as it refers to an
institutional development in our society. (excerpt, p. 8 and 9.)

Calibration Studies and the Investigation of Track Segments within Showers with an Imaging Hadronic Calorimeter
Creators: name: Lu, Shaojun
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Instrumentation and Detectors (physics.ins-det)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The CALICE collaboration has constructed a highly granular hadronic sampling calorimeter prototype with small scintillator tiles individually read out by silicon photomultipliers (SiPM) to evaluate technologies for the ILC. The imaging capability of the detector allows detailed studies of the substructure of hadronic events, such as the identification of minimum ionizing track segments within the hadronic shower. These track segments are of high quality, so that they can be used for calibration, as an additional tool to Muons and to the built-in LED system used to monitor the SiPMs. These track segments also help to constrain hadronic shower models used in Geant4. Detailed MC studies with a realistic model of an ILC detector were performed to study the calibration requirements of a complete calorimeter system. The calibration strategy was tested on real data by transporting calibration constants from a Fermilab beam test to data recorded at CERN under different conditions.

Subjects: subject: Produktivität Industrie Aussenhandel Osteuropa Wirtschaftspolitik Österreich

description: Ausgangspunkt des vorliegenden Papers ist die Fokussierung der österreichischen Wirtschaftspolitik auf die Kampagne zur Steigerung der Produktivität. Steindl kritisiert die einseitige Betrachtung des Produktivitätszuwachses als "Zauberstab", der zu Erhöhung des Lebensstandards, Ausgleich der Zahlungsbilanz und Milderung der Spannungen zwischen verschiedenen Interessengruppen führen soll. Er zeigt dagegen die Gefahren der Produktivitätssteigerung für die (Voll-)Beschäftigung, für die Verteilung des Mehrertrags sowie für die Preisbildung. Zudem stellt sich das Problem der Messung der Produktivität und der fehlenden statistischen Daten, die zuverlässige Aussagen über die Auswirkungen der Produktivitätserhöhung ermöglichen würden. Einige Vergleiche mit anderen Ländern sind begrenzt brauchbar, da es in jedem Land spezifische Rahmenbedingungen gibt. Für Österreich könnte eine stabile Produktivitätsentwicklung im Zusammenspiel mit dem Außenhandel (mit Ost- und Westeuropa) entstehen. Zusammenfassend sieht Steindl die Steigerung der Produktivität nicht als Voraussetzung für eine erfolgreiche Wirtschaftspolitik, sondern im Gegenteil als ihr Ergebnis.

description: The structure of optical dispersive shock waves in nematic liquid crystals is investigated as the power of the optical beam is varied, with six regimes identified, which complements previous work pertinent to low power beams only. It is found that the dispersive shock wave structure depends critically on the input beam power. In addition, it is known that nematic dispersive shock waves are resonant and the structure of this resonant is also critically dependent on the beam power. Whitham modulation theory is used to find solutions for the six regimes with the existence intervals for each identified. These dispersive shock wave solutions are compared with full numerical solutions of the nematic equations and excellent agreement is found.

From satire to apocalypse in William Blake’s the four Zoas
Creators: name: Gibb, Peter Lloyd
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: In this thesis, the will characterizes the power of the imaginative man to break out of closed systems of thought, and the power of the unimaginative man to become controlled by them. Blake's Songs of Innocence and Experience dramatize the will in opposing forms, each form giving rise to the other. In a state of innocence will radiates primal energy, organizing and sanctifying. In the state of experience, having clouded his imagination, man turns this radiating power inward to conserve it and to protect himself. The contrary states of innocence and experience thus dramatize active and passive states of the will, which in turn project visions of apocalypse and satire. "The Chimney Sweeper" of Songs of Innocence, for instance, can be read apocalyptically or satirically, depending upon the reader's will. The contrasting visions of satire and apocalypse become formal principles of Blake's methodology, the means by which Blake "rouzes the faculties to act." In order to understand Blake's remarks on Paradise Lost in The Marriage of Heaven and Hell, for instance, the reader must, through an act of will, re-enact Milton's myth of 'the fall. Furthermore, in his illustrations to Paradise Lost, Blake demonstrates that the hero of that work is the reader/poet who purges himself of that aspect of his will that is modelled after Satan, and adopts the image of the will epitomized by the Messiah. If one can believe that Blake had as much control of the structure of The Four Zoos as he did over these other works, one can assume that its structure is intentionally designed so that the satiric will can see the poem only in its parts, but the apocalyptic will can create a unified vision of the poem's structure, in which all its members display the organic unity of the whole. One means of achieving this unity is to assume that the poem's structure is not derived from its narration of some external reality such as creation, history, or faculty psychology, but by imagining its members as depicting images of the poem's creation. The Four Zoas, thus conceived, is a commentary on the process of discovering and creating a new poetic form in opposition to the debilitating conventions that had controlled eighteenth century poetic thought and expression.

Our results cover the finite horizon case, with minimax (worst-case) objective, and convex state costs plus linear control costs. We develop a new proof methodology, which explores the relationship between the geometrical properties of the feasible set of solutions and the structure of the objective function. Apart from providing an elegant and conceptually simple proof technique, the approach also entails very fast algorithms for the case of piecewise affine state costs, which we explore in connection with a classical inventory management application.

title: Exploring the legacies of steel slag at Glengarnock, North Ayrshire: A situated interdisciplinary account of an anthropogenic geomaterial
Creators: name: Kirk, Jenna Katy Gray
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2025

description: The steelmaking furnace is a place where raw earth materials and human industrial activities meet. Steel slag is an entity that is encouraged to form through the intersection of these influences, as it is employed to withdraw and entrain natural chemical impurities, and hold these contaminants separate from the furnace’s nascent end products. Once it has completed this task, slag is dumped at the outer limits of a works landscape. Here— generally out of sight and out of mind— it enters into new relations with its surroundings. Steel slag does not occur naturally in our environment – its existence depends upon human agency. Yet its material origins and post-depositional afterlives are also shaped by environmental processes. Steel slag can thus be conceived of as an anthropogenic geomaterial, holding multi-temporal stories which can be traced by attending to the entangled worlds it encompasses. The potential of these narratives has however received almost no scholarly attention.

This thesis presents an account of the steel slag that forms one of the last remaining physical vestiges of the former Glengarnock Steelworks in North Ayrshire, Scotland. The deposition of this slag into a loch closely neighbouring the works gradually claimed an entirely new anthropogenic landscape from this waterbody, which has in recent years been shaped by a local authority led regeneration project. I develop an interdisciplinary approach— that emerges from the particular juxtaposition of my research context and the three disciplines of geography, archaeology and geology— to explore the past, present and possible futures of this place, positioning its slag as a once largely forgotten, but now newly re-encountered material legacy that simultaneously manifests as a waste product, a post-industrial remnant, and as a novel anthropogenic rock. In so doing, I demonstrate how a personal engagement with this slag’s stories can be used to reanimate taken-for-granted histories, rewrite emerging heritage narratives, and re-imagine carbon futures. In this thesis, I am continuously challenged and surprised by Glengarnock’s steel slag, yet I also come to care about this neglected industrial waste deposit. I find ultimately that electing to pay attention to a local outcropping of an anthropogenic geomaterial reveals choices, and that exploring what can be done with our material legacies, as well as what might be conferred as a result, can contribute to the task of working though the world shaping implications of humanity’s assumption of geological force.

Within the framework of zCOSMOS-bright survey, and making use of its large database of objects ($\sim 10\,000$ galaxies in the redshift range $0 < z \lesssim 1.2$) and its great reliability in redshift and spectral properties determinations, first we adopt and extend the \emph{classification cube method}, as developed by Mignoli et al. (2009), to exploit the bimodal properties of galaxies (spectral, photometric and morphologic) separately, and then combining together these three subclassifications. We use this classification method as a test for a newly devised statistical classification, based on Principal Component Analysis and Unsupervised Fuzzy Partition clustering method (PCA+UFP), which is able to define the galaxy population exploiting their natural global bimodality, considering simultaneously up to 8 different properties. 

The PCA+UFP analysis is a very powerful and robust tool to probe the nature and the evolution of galaxies in a survey. It allows to define with less uncertainties the classification of galaxies, adding the flexibility to be adapted to different parameters: being a fuzzy classification it avoids the problems due to a hard classification, such as the classification cube presented in the first part of the article. The PCA+UFP method can be easily applied to different datasets: it does not rely on the nature of the data and for this reason it can be successfully employed with others observables (magnitudes, colours) or derived properties (masses, luminosities, SFRs, etc.). The agreement between the two classification cluster definitions is very high. ``Early'' and ``late'' type galaxies are well defined by the spectral, photometric and morphological properties, both considering them in a separate way and then combining the classifications (classification cube) and treating them as a whole (PCA+UFP cluster analysis). Differences arise in the definition of outliers: the classification cube is much more sensitive to single measurement errors or misclassifications in one property than the PCA+UFP cluster analysis, in which errors are ``averaged out'' during the process. This method allowed us to behold the \emph{downsizing} effect taking place in the PC spaces: the migration between the blue cloud towards the red clump happens at higher redshifts for galaxies of larger mass. The determination of $M_{\mathrm{cross}}$ the transition mass is in significant agreement with others values in literature.

description: In the original BB84 protocol by Bennett and Brassard, an eavesdropper is detected because his attempts to intercept information result in a quantum bit error rate (QBER) of at least 25%. Here we design an alternative quantum key distribution protocol, where Alice and Bob use two mutually unbiased bases with one of them encoding a "0" and the other one encoding a "1." The security of the scheme is due to a minimum index transmission error rate (ITER) introduced by an eavesdropper which increases significantly for higher-dimensional photon states. This allows for more noise in the transmission line, thereby increasing the possible distance between Alice and Bob without the need for intermediate nodes.

Studies on Acetabularia chloroplast DNA
Creators: name: Muir, Bernice L.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The physical properties and renaturation kinetics of DNA extracted from isolated chloroplasts of Acetabulavia meditewanea has been studied. 3 It has a buoyant density of 1.702 g/cm³ , which corresponds to a base composition of 42.8% G+C. When melted in SSC, Acetabulavia chloroplast DNA has a Tm of 86.7°, corresponding to a base composition of 43% G+C. The close agreement of the base compositions calculated from the buoyant density and the melting temperature indicates the absence of unusual bases in Acetdbularia meditewanea chloroplast DNA. In 0.1 x SSC, Acetabulavia chloroplast DNA melts with a Tm of 70.7°, and the melting transition is very broad. The breadth of the melting transition suggests that this DNA has a high degree of intramolecular heterogeneity. A differential plot of the thermal transition of A. meditewanea chloroplast DNA supports this conclusion. The buoyant densities of DNA from bacterial contaminants found in Acetabulavia cultures differed from the buoyant density of the chloroplast DNA. In any case, the amount of bacterial contamination was too low to account for any of the results obtained. Renaturation experiments indicate a kinetic complexity of 1.1 x 10⁹ daltons from Acetabulavia meditewanea chloroplast DNA. As a result of uncertainties in the values of alkaline sedimentation coefficients, this calculated kinetic complexity may be too low. The possible genetic information contained in the chloroplast DNA of Acetabulavia meditewanea is discussed.

description: In diesem frühen Aufsatz wird das Rationalitätsprinzip sowie das Marktgleichgewicht als Grundelemente der einzel- und gesamtwirtschaftlichen Analyse kritisch unter die Lupe genommen. Dazu wird unter anderem auch auf einige Thesen von Strigl, Kaufmann, Morgenstern, Hayek, Myrdal, Lundberg und Keynes eingegangen. Die Beschränkung der Gültigkeit des "rationalen Schemas" soll in der neueren Entwicklung der Nationalökonomie durch die Einbeziehung "irrationaler" Elemente (Erwartungen, Unsicherheit etc.) gelöst werden. Das birgt in sich die Gefahr der immer weniger genauen Prognosen. Bei der Lösung der Frage des menschlichen Verhaltens stößt die Nationalökonomie bald an eigene Grenzen. Diese können nur mit Hilfe anderer "Grenzgebiete" (Disziplinen) überwunden werden.

Binary Bose-Einstein condensates in a disordered time-dependent potential

description: We study the non-equilibrium evolution of binary Bose-Einstein condensates in the presence of weak random potential with a Gaussian correlation function using the time-dependent perturbation theory. We apply this theory to construct a closed set of equations that highlight the role of the spectacular interplay between the disorder and the interspecies interactions in the time evolution of the density induced by disorder in each component. It is found that this latter increases with time favoring localization of both species. The time scale at which the theory remains valid depends on the respective system parameters. We show analytically and numerically that such a system supports a steady state that periodically changing during its time propagation. The obtained dynamical corrections indicate that disorder may transform the system into a stationary out-of-equilibrium states. Understanding this time evolution is pivotal for the realization of Floquet condensates.

description: We present the results of a next-to-leading order calculation of QCD corrections to the production of an on-shell top-anti-top quark pair in association with two flavored b-jets. Besides studying the total cross section and its scale dependence, we give several differential distributions. Where comparable, our results agree with a previous analysis. While the process under scrutiny is of major relevance for Higgs boson searches at the LHC, we use it to demonstrate the ability of our system built around Helac-Phegas to tackle complete calculations at the frontier of current studies for the LHC. On the technical side, we show how the virtual corrections are efficiently computed with Helac-1Loop, based on the OPP method and the reduction code CutTools, using reweighting and Monte Carlo over color configurations and polarizations. As far as the real corrections are concerned, we use the recently published Helac-Dipoles package. In connection with improvements of the latter, we give the last missing integrated dipole formulae necessary for a complete implementation of phase space restriction dependence in the massive dipole subtraction formalism.

description: The widespread presence of peripheral devices in households, connecting to desktops and laptops, creates a substantial security vulnerability. These devices can be manipulated at the hardware level, granting unauthorized access to host systems. While modern operating systems like Windows, Linux, and Mac have implemented software security measures to combat malicious keyloggers, these defenses can be circumvented through a combination of encryption, decryption, and hardware methods. This evasion makes them effectively undetectable at the OS level, as demonstrated in prior research. The existing literature underscores the substantial threat such devices pose to future users.

In our study, we have developed a cost-effective, custom malicious keyboard to provide a practical demonstration of potential attacks. We followed a systematic approach in creating this malicious custom keyboard. Our initial step involved analyzing the communication protocols of standard keyboards to identify vulnerabilities. Utilizing readily available components, we integrated a microcontroller with EEPROM for data storage to ensure discreet functionality. We obtained keypress data and sent it without raising any suspicions because of this approach. We also employed code obfuscation techniques to conceal the device's functions further and make detection more challenging.

description: The Discrete Periodic Radon Transform (DPRT) has been extensively used in applications that involve image reconstructions from projections. This manuscript introduces a fast and scalable approach for computing the forward and inverse DPRT that is based on the use of: (i) a parallel array of fixed-point adder trees, (ii) circular shift registers to remove the need for accessing external memory components when selecting the input data for the adder trees, (iii) an image block-based approach to DPRT computation that can fit the proposed architecture to available resources, and (iv) fast transpositions that are computed in one or a few clock cycles that do not depend on the size of the input image. As a result, for an $N\times N$ image ($N$ prime), the proposed approach can compute up to $N^{2}$ additions per clock cycle. Compared to previous approaches, the scalable approach provides the fastest known implementations for different amounts of computational resources. For example, for a $251\times 251$ image, for approximately $25\%$ fewer flip-flops than required for a systolic implementation, we have that the scalable DPRT is computed 36 times faster. For the fastest case, we introduce optimized architectures that can compute the DPRT and its inverse in just $2N+\left\lceil \log_{2}N\right\rceil+1$ and $2N+3\left\lceil \log_{2}N\right\rceil+B+2$ cycles respectively, where $B$ is the number of bits used to represent each input pixel. On the other hand, the scalable DPRT approach requires more 1-bit additions than for the systolic implementation and provides a trade-off between speed and additional 1-bit additions. All of the proposed DPRT architectures were implemented in VHDL and validated using an FPGA implementation.
