HUME E LA BELLEZZA DEL SISTEMA COPERNICANO
Creators: name: GIORDANETTI, PIERO
Publisher: name: Dipartimento di Scienze Umane, Università di Ferrara
Year: 2021
Subjects: Hume, Copernicus, Feeling, Beauty, Aesthetics.

description: In critical studies, Hume's relationship with Copernicus has rarely been examined and little space has been given to an analysis of the function that Hume assigns to the problem of moral feeling, moral beauty, and taste and to Milton's poetry. The purpose of the following pages will be precisely to investigate this relationship. The thesis that will emerge will be that the judgment on Copernicus is not pronounced only from a purely logical point of view but is also based on elements of Hume's moral and aesthetic theory of sentiment, taste and beauty.

description: SOXS is a new spectrograph for the New Technology Telescope (NTT), optimized for transient and variable objects, covering a wide wavelength range from 350 to 2000 nm. SOXS is equipped with a calibration unit that will be used to remove the instrument signatures and to provide wavelength calibration to the data. The calibration unit will employ seven calibration lamps: a quartz-tungsten-halogen and a deuterium lamp for the flat-field correction, a ThAr lamp and four pencil-style rare-gas lamps for the wavelength calibration. The light from the calibration lamps is injected into the spectrograph mimicking the f/11 input beam of the NTT, by using an integrating sphere and a custom doublet. The oversized illumination patch covers the length of the spectrograph slit homogeneously, with $< 1\%$ variation. The optics also supports the second mode of the unit, the star-simulator mode that emulates a point source by utilizing a pinhole mask. Switching between the direct illumination and pinhole modes is performed by a linear stage. A safety interlock switches off the main power when the lamp box cover is removed, preventing accidental UV exposure to the service personnel. All power supplies and control modules are located in an electronic rack at a distance from the telescope platform. In this presentation we describe the optical, mechanical, and electrical designs of the SOXS calibration unit, and report the status of development in which the unit is currently in the test and verification stage.

RICOMBINATORIA DELLA CREATIVITÀ: UNA PROPOSTA JUNGHIANA
Creators: name: BELLAFQIH, ADIL
Publisher: name: Dipartimento di Scienze Umane, Università di Ferrara
Year: 2021
Subjects: Creativity, Umberto Eco, Art, Jung, Unconscious

description: In Combinatory of the creativity, Umberto Eco proposes a model of creativity based on the combinatory relation between mind and world. A trial and error process in the making of an artistic or a scientific craft is grounded upon the idea that the core of the craft already lies in nature. Such process leaves unsolved questions, like why isn’t anyone a creator due to the simple trial and error? A junghian approach to the matter may find answers in the archetypes. Due to their independence from the Ego, unconscious images like the archetypes should be treated as part of the combinatory game.

The Discovery of Soft X-ray Loud Broad Absorption Line Quasars

description: It is been known for more than a decade that BALQSOs (broad absorption line quasars) are highly attenuated in the X-ray regime compared to other quasars, especially in the soft band ($< $ 1 keV). Using X-ray selection techniques we have found "soft X-ray loud" BALQSOs that, by definition, have soft X-ray (0.3 keV) to UV ($3000 Å$) flux density ratios that are higher than typical nonBAL radio quiet quasars. Our sample of 3 sources includes one LoBALQSO (low ionization BALQSO) which are generally considered to be the most highly attenuated in the X-rays. The three QSOs are the only known BALQSOs that have X-ray observations that are consistent with no intrinsic soft X-ray absorption. The existence of a large X-ray luminosity and the hard ionizing continuum that it presents to potential UV absorption gas is in conflict with the ionization states that are conducive to line driving forces within BAL winds (especially for the LoBALs).

Three-Dimensional Distribution of the ISM in the Milky Way Galaxy: II. The Molecular Gas Disk

description: We created a three-dimensional distribution map of molecular gas throughout the Milky Way Galaxy using the latest $^{12}$CO($J=$1--0) survey data cube and rotation curve based on the kinematic distance. The radial distribution of the molecular gas shows a central peak and a second peak around 0.5 $R_0$. The thickness of the molecular disk slightly increases from 48 pc to 160 pc with the galactocentric distance within a radius range of 0--11 kpc. We were able to trace the Outer, the Perseus, the Sagittarius-Carina, the Scutum-Crux, and the Norma arms as logarithmic spiral arms with pitch angles of $11\arcdeg - 15\arcdeg$. Considering that the pitch angles of the spiral arms are within this range, the Norma and the Outer arms {seem to} be identified as the same spiral arm. We could also trace a midplane displacement, whose amplitude is nearly constant inside a 10 kpc radius and increases beyond this radius. The ridges of midplane displacement form leading spiral arms.

description: Among the early thirteenth-century texts preserved in the famous manuscript Douai, Bibliothèque Municipale 434, there is a well-structured enquiry on the issue of free will. This anonymous work, which apparently belongs to the genre of the disputed questions, is in fact a theological treatise articulated in five parts. This paper offers a study of the literary and doctrinal features of this anonymous text, replacing it in the historical framework of the theological and philosophical debate of the 1230s. More in detail, this enquiry explains how this tractatus de libero arbitriotestifies a turning point in the discussion about this issue, especially within the Parisian cultural milieu. A critical edition of the text is offered at the end of the article.

Single bit optimal detection of a BPSK signal in the presence of co-channel interferers
Creators: name: Kwan, Raymond Yuk Chor
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The matched filter receiver is optimal for detection of a signal in additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN), but no longer optimal in the presence of interference. In this thesis, optimal BPSK receivers in the presence of one and two interferers with AWGN are derived. The first type of receiver (type I) assumes knowledge of the amplitudes, frequencies and carrier phases of both the desired and interferer signals, as well as the power spectral density of the noise. The second type of receiver (type II) is similar to the type I receiver, except that knowledge of the interferer signal's carrier phase is not available. For both types of receivers, the bit error rate (BER) performance as well as sensitivity analyses are presented in environments in which the desired and interferer signals are bit aligned and randomly aligned. It is found that the BER performances of the optimal receivers are significantly better than those of the matched filter receiver at low SIR. When the carrier frequency separation between the desired and interferer signals increases from zero, significant error performance improvement can be observed for the optimal receiver at low SIR compared to the performance when the carrier frequencies are the same.
Investigation of Van-der-Waals Clusters of Liquid and Gaseous Hydrogen Isotopologues via Infrared Absorption Spectroscopy
Creators: name: Mirz, Sebastian Karlheinz
Publisher: name: Karlsruhe
Year: 2019

description: Van-der-Waals cluster formation of the hydrogen isotopologues in the windowless gaseous tritium source (WGTS) of the Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino Experiment (KATRIN) influences the measured electron energy spectrum. Therefore it represents a systematic uncertainty for the neutrino mass measurement with KATRIN. In the cryogenic distillation column of the fusion fuel cycle, this cluster formation also limits the accuracy of the measurement of the concentration of liquid hydrogen isotopologues based on infrared (IR) absorption spectroscopy. This thesis presents the investigation of this cluster formation via IR absorption spectroscopy. In this thesis, a description of the band structure of the IR absorption spectra of the Van-der-Waals clusters of inactive hydrogen isotopologues is developed and the major contributions to the line shapes are determined. Based on this, the temperature dependency of the absorbance of the Van-der-Waals clusters is experimentally determined in the liquid and gaseous phase and conclusions towards the cluster formation are drawn.
Charge transfer and coherence dynamics of tunnelling system coupled to a harmonic oscillator

description: We study the transition probability and coherence of a two-site system, interacting with an oscillator. Both properties depend on the initial preparation. The oscillator is prepared in a thermal state and, even though it cannot be considered as an extended bath, it produces decoherence because of the large number of states involved in the dynamics. In the case in which the oscillator is intially displaced a coherent dynamics of change entangled with oscillator modes takes place. Coherency is however degraded as far as the oscillator mass increases producing a increasingly large recoherence time. Calculations are carried on by exact diagonalization and compared with two semiclassical approximations. The role of the quantum effects are highlighted in the long-time dynamics, where semiclassical approaches give rise to a dissipative behaviour. Moreover, we find that the oscillator dynamics has to be taken into account, even in a semiclassical approximation, in order to reproduce a thermally activated enhancement of the transition probability.

description: Cluster dynamics and single-particle correlation are simultaneously treated for the description of the ground state of ${}^{12} \mathrm{C} $. The recent development of the antisymmetrized quasi cluster model (AQCM) makes it possible to generate $jj$-coupling shell-model wave functions from $α$ clusters models. The cluster dynamics and the competition with the $jj$-coupling shell-model structure can be estimated rather easily. In the present study, we further include the effect of single-particle excitation; the mixing of the two-particle-two-hole excited states is considered. The single-particle excitation is not always taken into account in the standard cluster model analyses, and the two-particle-two-hole states are found to strongly contribute to the lowering of the ground state owing to the pairing-like correlations. By extending AQCM, all of the basis states are prepared on the same footing, and they are superposed based on the framework of the generator coordinate method (GCM).

description: We use focused-ion-beam milling of a single-crystal Au surface to fabricate a 590-nm-long linear ridge that acts as a surface plasmon nanoresonator. Cathodoluminescence imaging spectroscopy is then used to excite and image surface plasmons on the ridge. Principal component analysis reveals distinct plasmonic modes, which proves confinement of surface-plasmon oscillations to the ridge. Boundary-element-method calculations confirm that a linear ridge is able to support highly-localized surface-plasmon modes (mode diameter < 100 nm). The results demonstrate that focused-ion-beam milling can be used in rapid prototyping of nanoscale single-crystal plasmonic components.

description: To capture the high-field magnetization process of herbertsmithite (ZnCu3(OH)6Cl2), Faraday rotation (FR) measurements were carried out on a single crystal in magnetic fields of up to 190 T. The magnetization data evaluated from the FR angle exhibited a saturation behavior above 150 T at low temperatures, which was attributed to the 1/3 magnetization plateau. The overall behavior of the magnetization process was reproduced by theoretical models based on the nearest-neighbor Heisenberg model. This suggests that herbertsmithite is a proximate kagome antiferromagnet hosting an ideal quantum spin liquid in the ground state. A distinguishing feature is the superlinear magnetization increase, which is in contrast to the Brillouin function-type increase observed by conventional magnetization measurements and indicates a reduced contribution from free spins located at the Zn sites to the FR signal.

description: We describe and demonstrate an optimization-based x-ray image reconstruction framework called Adorym. Our framework provides a generic forward model, allowing one code framework to be used for a wide range of imaging methods ranging from near-field holography to and fly-scan ptychographic tomography. By using automatic differentiation for optimization, Adorym has the flexibility to refine experimental parameters including probe positions, multiple hologram alignment, and object tilts. It is written with strong support for parallel processing, allowing large datasets to be processed on high-performance computing systems. We demonstrate its use on several experimental datasets to show improved image quality through parameter refinement.

description: We present numerical results for the spin and thermal conductivity of one-dimensional (1D) quantum spin systems. We contrast the properties of integrable models such as the spin-1/2 XXZ chain against nonintegrable ones such as frustrated and dimerized chains. The thermal conductivity of the XXZ chain is ballistic at finite temperatures, while in the nonintegrable models, this quantity is argued to vanish. For the case of frustrated and dimerized chains, we discuss the frequency dependence of the transport coefficients. Finally, we give an overview over related theoretical work on intrinsic and extrinsic scattering mechanisms of quasi-1D spin systems.

description: We propose an encoder-decoder framework for the segmentation of blood vessels in retinal images that relies on the extraction of large-scale patches at multiple image-scales during training. Experiments on three fundus image datasets demonstrate that this approach achieves state-of-the-art results and can be implemented using a simple and efficient fully-convolutional network with a parameter count of less than 0.8M. Furthermore, we show that this framework - called VLight - avoids overfitting to specific training images and generalizes well across different datasets, which makes it highly suitable for real-world applications where robustness, accuracy as well as low inference time on high-resolution fundus images is required.

description: This paper describes a way to subdivide a 3-manifold into angled blocks, namely polyhedral pieces that need not be simply connected. When the individual blocks carry dihedral angles that fit together in a consistent fashion, we prove that a manifold constructed from these blocks must be hyperbolic. The main application is a new proof of a classical, unpublished theorem of Bonahon and Siebenmann: that all arborescent links, except for three simple families of exceptions, have hyperbolic complements.

While few methods are available to monitor fetal movements, they consist of several adverse qualities such as unreliability as well as the inability to be conducted in a non-clinical setting. Therefore, this research was conducted to design a complete system that will enable pregnant mothers to monitor fetal movement at home. This system consists of a non-invasive, non-transmitting sensor unit that can be fabricated at a low cost. An accelerometer was utilized as the primary sensor and a micro-controller based circuit was implemented. Clinical testing was conducted utilizing this sensor unit. Two phases of clinical testing procedures were done and readings from more than 120 pregnant mothers were taking. Validation was done by conducting an abdominal ultrasound scan which was utilized as the ground truth during the second phase of the clinical testing procedure. A clinical survey was also conducted in parallel with clinical testings in order to improve the sensor unit as well as to improve the final system. Four different signal processing algorithms were implemented on the data set and the performance of each was compared with each other. Consequently, the most feasible as well as the best performing algorithm was determined and it was utilized in the final system. Furthermore, a mobile application was also developed to be used with the sensor unit by pregnant mothers. Finally, a complete end to end method to monitor fetal movement in a non-clinical setting was presented by the proposed system.

description: Αντικείμενο της παρούσας εργασίας είναι τα ταφικά μνημεία της Μακεδονίας στα οποία θνητοί εικονίζονται με τη μορφή ή με τα σύμβολα θεών, στη διάρκεια της αυτοκρατορικής περιόδου. Οι θεόμορφες απεικονίσεις έχουν μεταφορικό χαρακτήρα. Οι θνητοί παραλληλίζονται με τις θεότητες και οικειοποιούνται διάφορα χαρακτηριστικά και αρετές τους. Πρόκειται για εικονογραφική εξομοίωση των θνητών με τους Θεούς και όχι για πραγματική θεοποίηση. Το φαινόμενο αυτό στη Μακεδονία φαίνεται ότι ακολουθεί τη δική του κατέυθυνση.
description: The present dissertation concerns the burial monuments of Macedonia during the imperial period, specifically the subset that includes depictions of mortals disguised as gods or bearing divine symbols. These depictions are figurative, serving to compare the entombed to the gods and to appropriate some of their characteristics and virtues. They do not imply the actual deification of the delicted individuals. It seems that in Macedonia this phenomenon ran its own particular course.

description: In large extra dimensional Kaluza-Klein (KK) scenario, where the usual Standard Model (SM) matter is confined to a 3+1-dimensional hypersurface called the 3-brane and gravity can propagate to the bulk (D=4+d, d being the number of extra spatial dimensions), the light graviton KK modes can be produced inside the supernova core due to the usual nucleon-nucleon bremstrahlung, electron-positron and photon-photon annihilations. This photon inside the supernova becomes plasmon due to the plasma effect. In this paper, we study the energy-loss rate of SN 1987A due to the KK gravitons produced from the plasmon-plasmon annihilation. We find that the SN 1987A cooling rate leads to the conservative bound $M\_D$ > 22.9 TeV and 1.38 TeV for the case of two and three space-like extra dimensions.

description: In this paper, we address the problem of target detection in the presence of coherent (or fully correlated) signals, which can be due to multipath propagation effects or electronic attacks by smart jammers. To this end, we formulate the problem at hand as a multiple-hypothesis test that, besides the conventional radar alternative hypothesis, contains additional hypotheses accounting for the presence of an unknown number of interfering signals. In this context and leveraging the classification capabilities of the Model Order Selection rules, we devise penalized likelihood-ratio-based detection architectures that can establish, as a byproduct, which hypothesis is in force. Moreover, we propose a suboptimum procedure to estimate the angles of arrival of multiple coherent signals ensuring (at least for the considered parameters) almost the same performance as the exhaustive search. Finally, the performance assessment, conducted over simulated data and in comparison with conventional radar detectors, highlights that the proposed architectures can provide satisfactory performance in terms of probability of detection and correct classification.

title: Towards the development of a Quality Management System of a small pet grooming production company
Creators: name: Νυκταρη Ναυσικα
Publisher: name: Technical University of Crete
Year: 2022

description: The scope of this thesis is to evaluate and identify whether a young and small company has the ability to meet and work under the quality standards as described in ISO 9001:2015. We will analyze and report the presence of various Quality Management tools with particular reference to the Company named “TOP DOG” and clarify the readiness of this Company to acquire the ISO 9001:2015 certification based on the requirements of the standards.
Additionally to the registration of the procedures that are already being followed by the Company and the analysis of the Company’s current situation against requirements, we will also mention all other requirements that TOP DOG should include in its procedures in order to acquire the ISO 9001:2015 certification.
TOP DOG is a local start-up company that was founded in Chania, Crete, in 2012, and its business activity is the production and distribution of pet grooming products. The Company had been developing its formulas for the first 3 (three) years; thus, the only department operating until 2015 was the R&D department. TOP DOG entered the Greek market in 2015 and by now has managed to become one of the leading companies in Greece in the area of pet grooming products with a presence in more than 600 selected stores all over the country.
The Company is interested in selling internationally, therefore, is trying to conduct its business under the requirements of ISO 9001:2015 standard. However, it is a very small and young company operating in an unfavorable economic and political environment that faces multiple barriers in setting standard quality practices. This thesis will identify the complexity or the simplicity for a young production company to comply with ISO 9001:2015 standards and answer the question of whether TOP DOG has the capability to conform to this qualitative tool regardless of local economic, environmental, and political restrictions, or if is it too complicated and extensive, requiring multiple working hours to implement, thus
making the Standard even more challenging to follow.

description: A detailed analysis of the most relevant sources of phase noise in an atomic interferometer is carried out, both theoretically and experimentally. Even a short interrogation time of 100 ms allows our cold atom gravimeter to reach an excellent short term sensitivity to acceleration of $1.4\times 10^{-8}$g at 1s. This result relies on the combination of a low phase noise laser system, efficient detection scheme and good shielding from vibrations. In particular, we describe a simple and robust technique of vibration compensation, which is based on correcting the interferometer signal by using the AC acceleration signal measured by a low noise seismometer.

description: Σκοπός της παρούσας εργασίας είναι η καταγραφή και η ανάλυση των προβαλλόμενων μορφών βίας (άμεση και δομική βία) στο περιεχόμενο του κειμένου και του περικειμένου των τριών σχολικών βιβλίων Ιστορίας, τα οποία χρησιμοποιούνται από το 2006 και εξής στο Γυμνάσιο. Από τις αναλύσεις διαφαίνεται πως η Ιστορία περιγράφει το παρελθόν σαν μια περίοδο που στιγματίστηκε από βίαια συμβάντα τα οποία χρήζουν ιδιαίτερης μνείας, εφόσον «καλύπτουν» σχεδόν το σύνολο των περιεχομένων μάθησης των υπό εξέταση εγχειριδίων. Η «θετική αναθεώρησή» του περιεχομένου τους κρίνεται επιβεβλημένη, προκειμένου η μη βία να αποτελέσει αντικείμενο προς μάθηση, αλλά και να συνεισφέρουν στην ανάπτυξη ενός «πολιτισμού ειρήνης».
description: The aim of this paper is to record and analyze the emerging forms of violence (direct and structural violence) in the content of the text and the paratext of the three school history textbooks, which are used since 2006 and forward at secondary schools. The analyses reveal that history describes past as a period which was stigmatized by violent incidents which deserve a special reference, since they “cover” almost the entire contents of learning of the textbooks under investigation. The “positive textbook revision” of their content is compelling so as non-violence to become a learning object, but also to contribute to the development of a “culture of peace”.
Loschmidt Echo and Berry phase of the quantum system coupled to the XY spin chain: Proximity to quantum phase transition

description: We study the Loschmidt echo (LE) of a coupled system consisting of a central spin and its surrounding environment described by a general XY spin-chain model. The quantum dynamics of the LE is shown to be remarkably influenced by the quantum criticality of the spin chain. In particular, the decaying behavior of the LE is found to be controlled by the anisotropy parameter of the spin chain. Furthermore, we show that due to the coupling to the spin chain, the ground-state Berry phase for the central spin becomes nonanalytical and its derivative with respect to the magnetic parameter $λ$ in spin chain diverges along the critical line $λ=1$, which suggests an alternative measurement of the quantum criticality of the spin chain.

description: We study dropout in two-layer neural networks with rectified linear unit (ReLU) activations. Under mild overparametrization and assuming that the limiting kernel can separate the data distribution with a positive margin, we show that dropout training with logistic loss achieves $ε$-suboptimality in test error in $O(1/ε)$ iterations.
