description: Spin liquids represent exotic types of quantum matter that evade conventional symmetry-breaking order even at zero temperature. Exhaustive classifications of spin liquids have been carried out in several systems, particularly in the presence of full SU(2) spin-rotation symmetry. Real magnetic compounds, however, generically break SU(2) spin symmetry as a result of spin-orbit coupling - which in many materials provides an `order one' effect. We generalize previous works by using the projective symmetry group method to classify $Z_2$ spin liquids on the square lattice when SU(2) spin symmetry is maximally lifted. We find that, counterintuitively, the lifting of spin symmetry actually results in vastly more spin liquid phases compared to SU(2)-invariant systems. A generic feature of the SU(2)-broken case is that the spinons naturally undergo $p+ip$ pairing; consequently, many of these $Z_2$ spin liquids feature a topologically nontrivial spinon band structure supporting gapless Majorana edge states. We study in detail several spin-liquid phases with varying numbers of gapless edge states and discuss their topological protection. The edge states are often protected by a combination of time reversal and lattice symmetries and hence resemble recently proposed topological crystalline superconductors.

description: European integration is for its essential part reflected in the building of urban networks that are increasing interdependencies between cities. Evidence of this process is brought through the observation of a variety of networks whose nodes are located in cities, especially the development of international functions. Analysis of airlines networks (2000) as well as the economic linkages between multinational firms (1990,1996) provide a good illustration reflecting the dominant features of such a process (Rozenblat, 1993, 1997, Amiel, 2003). But other international networks as those created by cultural or scientific activities introduce may have distinctive patterns compared to the previous ones (Rozenblat, Cicille, 2003). From these analyses, four major modes can be identified in the spatial construction of urban networks in Europe (ESPON, 2003): 1) integration according to the urban hierarchy at the European scale 2) integration according to a national urban hierarchy 3) integration according to border and regional effects 4) integration through functional specialisation We will demonstrate to which extent each integration mode is effective in the set of urban networks that we analyse. Second, we shall try to show how the four modes are interacting by analysing their variations in space and time.

description: [Abridged] We report observations of the recently discovered, nearby late-M dwarf WISE J072003.20-084651.2. Astrometric measurements obtained with TRAPPIST improve the distance measurement to 6.0$\pm$1.0 pc and confirm the low tangential velocity (3.5$\pm$0.6 km/s) reported by Scholz. Low-resolution optical spectroscopy indicates a spectral type of M9.5 and prominent H$α$ emission ( = -4.68$\pm$0.06), but no evidence of subsolar metallicity or Li I absorption. Near-infrared spectroscopy reveals subtle peculiarities indicating the presence of a T5 binary companion, and high-resolution laser guide star adaptive optics imaging reveals a faint ($Δ$H = 4.1) candidate source 0"14 (0.8 AU) from the primary. We measure a stable radial velocity of +83.8$\pm$0.3 km/s, indicative of old disk kinematics and consistent with the angular separation of the possible companion. We measure a projected rotational velocity of v sin i = 8.0$\pm$0.5 km/s, and find evidence of low-level variability (~1.5%) in a 13-day TRAPPIST lightcurve, but cannot robustly constrain the rotational period. We also observe episodic changes in brightness (1-2%) and occasional flare bursts (4-8%) with a 0.8% duty cycle, and order-of-magnitude variations in H$α$ line strength. Combined, these observations reveal WISE J0720-0846 to be an old, very low-mass binary whose components straddle the hydrogen burning minimum mass, and whose primary is a relatively rapid rotator and magnetically active. It is one of only two known binaries among late M dwarfs within 10 pc of the Sun, both harboring a mid T-type brown dwarf companion. While this specific configuration is rare (1.4% probability), roughly 25% of binary companions to late-type M dwarfs in the local population are likely low-temperature T or Y brown dwarfs.

description: Nous situant dans le champ de l’analyse textuelle des discours politiques, nous nous sommes concentrés sur les allocutions des 11 et 16 mai 1968 de Georges Pompidou, deux discours oubliés de la critique scientifique. Valorisant une conception active du fait communicatif, nous considérons que tout discours relève d’une certaine intentionnalité illocutoire, qu’il est sous-tendu par une orientation argumentative et pragmatique. Toute description, tout fait de référence, est, suivant Jean-Blaise Grize, affaire de schématisation, c’est-à-dire de systématisation : l’orateur gère et génère un monde, sa composition, disposant les polarités énonciatives et rhétoriques à la manière d’images sur une scène théâtrale. Notre analyse suit le déroulement chronologique des allocutions : les deux discours se suivent et sont eux-mêmes étudiés dans leur progression rhétorique. Dans un premier temps, ces discours posent l’orateur et introduisent la situation (ethos). Dans un deuxième, ils expliquent ou argumentent sur le monde (logos). Enfin, se tournant vers l’auditoire, ils prennent en charge sa composition et l’interpellent pour une action citoyenne (pathos). Dans les deux discours, les ressources séquentielles, rhétoriques et argumentatives sont mises à profit pour légitimer les catégorisations et les actes que l’orateur produit. La description du monde est centrale dans ce jeu rhétorique : aboutissement d’une prise en charge légitimée par l’orateur lui-même et prémisse autant à l’argumentation qu’à l’usage de ressources épidictiques (création d’une communauté de valeur entre l’orateur et l’auditoire face à un tiers exclu), elle est le lieu d’organisation des polarités énonciatives et rhétoriques.

description: The adenosinergic pathway plays a critical role in cancer development and progression, as well as in drug resistance to chemotherapy and/or targeted-therapy. The goal of this PhD thesis was to investigate and fully characterize the role of CD73/adenosine A2A-A2B receptors axis in cancer, highlighting the therapeutic potential of inhibitors of the adenosinergic pathway. We firstly characterized the mechanism/s by which A2BR promotes immunosuppression and angiogenesis in tumor-bearing hosts, focusing on the role of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs). The results revealed that treatment of melanoma-bearing mice with Bay60-6583, a selective A2BR agonist, is associated with 1. increased tumor VEGF-A expression and vessel density, and 2. increased accumulation of tumor-infiltrating CD11b+Gr1+cells (MDSCs). MDSCs strongly contribute to the immunosuppressive and angiogenic effects of Bay60-6583. Melanoma-bearing mice treated with a selective A2BR antagonist PSB1115 showed reduced tumor growth compared to controls and this effect was associated with reduced tumor angiogenesis, low levels of MDSCs and increased number of tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells. Furthermore, blockade of A2BR increased the anti-tumor effects of VEGF-A inhibitors. Next, we verified that A2BR activation also drives fibroblasts activation within melanoma tissues, by increasing the number of FAP positive cells within tumor lesions. FAP is a common marker of activated fibroblasts also named cancer-associated fibroblasts. These cells produce and secrete various tumor-promoting factors, including fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-2 and CXCL12 or stromal-derived factor 1 α (SDF1α), that were increased both in melanoma tissue and fibroblasts isolated from melanoma tissue or from skin upon Bay60-6583 treatment. Bay60-6583-induced FGF-2 from fibroblasts contributed to melanoma cells proliferation. The CXCL12/CXCR4 pathway, instead, was involved in the pro-angiogenic effects of A2BR agonist, but not in its immunosuppressive effects. These effects were significantly blocked by the A2BR antagonists PSB1115. Taken together, these data elucidate the pivotal role of A2BR in establishing a positive cross-talk between tumor-infiltrating immune cells, fibroblasts and endothelial cells that sustain tumor growth, reinforcing the therapeutic potential of A2BR blockers for cancer therapy. ...

As a result, we find the critical metallization pressure $p_C = 102\ GPa$. The latter part is a discussion of the influence of zero-point motion on the stabilizing pressure. We show that in our model the estimate magnitude of zero-point motion carries a little effect on the critical metallization pressure at zero temperature.

description: Abstract
This research is prompted by concerns over the fact that religious extremism targets students. Such ideologies often penetrate through extracurricular activities of Islamic spiritual groups (Rohani Islam, Rohis). The aim of this study is to explain the process of internalizing the values of Wasathiyyah Islam through Rohis extracurricular activities, with a focus on SMAN 24 Bandung and SMAN 16 Kota Bandung. Internalizing the values of Wasathiyyah Islam refers to the process of incorporating knowledge and skills regarding moderate Islamic understanding through mentoring and guidance, thus shaping attitudes, feelings, and beliefs that become part of one's personality and form the basis of perspectives, thoughts, and actions. The indicators of Wasathiyyah Islam character in this research include commitment to the nation, tolerance, anti-violence, and accommodation of local culture. This study adopts a qualitative approach with an analytical descriptive method. Data collection is conducted through observation, interviews, and documentary studies. The findings reveal that the program of internalizing the values of Wasathiyyah Islam through Rohis extracurricular activities in SMAN 24 Bandung includes Islamic studies, spirituality, and mentoring, while in SMAN 16 Kota Bandung it includes Islamic studies, discussions, and mentoring. Supportive factors in both schools consist of the support from the school principal and teachers, the initiatives and enthusiasm of the Rohis mentors, financial support, availability of facilities, and collaboration with NGOs and alumni. On the other hand, inhibiting factors include misconceptions about religious moderation, the influence of less moderate alumni, and media content that lacks moderation.

description: We present the first observation of a galaxy (z=0.2) that exhibits metal-line absorption back-illuminated by the galaxy ("down-the-barrel") and transversely by a background quasar at a projected distance of 58 kpc. Both absorption systems, traced by MgII, are blueshifted relative to the galaxy systemic velocity. The quasar sight-line, which resides almost directly along the projected minor axis of the galaxy, probes MgI and MgII absorption obtained from Keck/LRIS and Lya, SiII and SiIII absorption obtained from HST/COS. For the first time, we combine two independent models used to quantify the outflow properties for down-the-barrel and transverse absorption. We find that the modeled down-the-barrel deprojected outflow velocities range between $V_{dtb}=45-255$ km/s. The transverse bi-conical outflow model, assuming constant-velocity flows perpendicular to the disk, requires wind velocities $V_{outflow}=40-80$ km/s to reproduce the transverse MgII absorption kinematics, which is consistent with the range of $V_{dtb}$. The galaxy has a metallicity, derived from H$α$ and NII, of $[{\rm O/H}]=-0.21\pm0.08$, whereas the transverse absorption has $[{\rm X/H}]=-1.12\pm0.02$. The galaxy star-formation rate is constrained between $4.6-15$ M$_{\odot}$/yr while the estimated outflow rate ranges between $1.6-4.2$ M$_{\odot}$/yr and yields a wind loading factor ranging between $0.1-0.9$. The galaxy and gas metallicities, the galaxy-quasar sight-line geometry, and the down-the-barrel and transverse modeled outflow velocities collectively suggest that the transverse gas originates from ongoing outflowing material from the galaxy. The $\sim$1 dex decrease in metallicity from the base of the outflow to the outer halo suggests metal dilution of the gas by the time it reached 58 kpc.

description: Le modèle bourdieusien de la sociologie de l'art insiste sur les conditions objectives qui pèsent sur le parcours des écrivains. Privilégiant une vision globale d'un «champ» littéraire structuré par une « lutte des places » entre les acteurs culturels, peu de place est laissée dans ce modèle théorique à la description minutieuse d'une carrière individuelle, à sa logique singulière, à sa diversité, à ses déviations, voire à ses contradictions. L'histoire des intellectuels permet une telle approche, car elle s'attache à décrire en finesse des trajectoires et à étudier les micro-contextes dans lesquels se développent des réseaux interpersonnels, où se jouent les prises de position esthétiques et idéologiques. Le présent article cherche à confronter ces deux approches, non dans une optique d’exclusion, mais au contraire dans une logique de complémentarité, à travers la figure de l’intellectuel romand Edmond Gilliard. Par l'étude de ses pratiques et de ses discours, il s'agira d’articuler au mieux l'approche micro- historique et celle plus holiste de Bourdieu.

description: Kawahara and collaborators analyzed the transits of the candidate disintegrating Mercury-mass planet KIC 12557548b and suggested that the transit depths were correlated with the phase of the stellar rotation. We analyze the transit depths of KIC 12557548b and confirm that there is indeed a robust, statistically significant signal in the transit depths at the rotation period of the spotted host star. This signal is more prominent in the first-half of the Kepler data, and is not due to leakage of the rotating spot signal into our measurement of the transit depths, or due to unocculted starspots. We investigate the suggestion that this signal could be due to an active region on the star, emitting enhanced ultraviolet or X-ray radiation leading to an increased mass loss rate of the planet; we confirm that such a scenario could cause both modulation of the transit depths of KIC 12557548b, and small enough transit-timing variations that they might not be detected in the Kepler data. Our preferred explanation for the fact that the transit depths of KIC 12557548b are modulated with the stellar rotation phase is that the candidate transiting planet is occulting starspots on this highly spotted star; such a scenario could cause transit depth variations as large as have been observed, and cause transit-timing variations small enough that they are arguably consistent with the Kepler data.

description: Nanomaterials have emerged as future environmentally sustainable lubricant additives to improve conventional lubricants such as car oils, industrial oils, grease and metalworking fluids. In particular, as far as this thesis is concerned, nanoparticle additives' applications in transmissions oils are based on the concepts of solid lubrication and are often used as anti-wear, anti-friction, and high-pressure additives. Their multiple advantages include small enough scale, thermal stability, unique particle chemistries, mechanical properties, and a high surface reaction rate. These benefits translate into the prolonged running of the equipment, improved fuel efficiency and extended maintenance cycles. The main drawback of solid lubricant additives is the inherent low stability of liquid base lubricant systems, which has greatly limited them from industrial applications. Thus, the current PhD thesis is aimed to design novel techniques to improve the dispersibility of nanoadditives in base oils, while encompassing both the theoretical and the industrial point of view. The concluded results from this industrial research have shown promising results in simultaneous stability and tribological improvement. Also, future use of nanoadditives in electric vehicle applications is critically discussed, and key findings are achieved. [edited by Author]

description: This article reviews a central strand of the literature on legislative decision-making in the European Union (EU): procedural spatial models. These models have gained increasing prominence during the last decade of scholarship on the EU and have considerably enhanced our understanding of the EU legislative decision- making process. However, the literature has not been without criticism and has reached a stage of theoretical stagnation. The intention of this article is therefore twofold: First, it reviews the existing procedural spatial literature and critically discusses the lacking specification and justification of some of its assumptions. The manifold assumptions used in different models are based on actors’ preferences and the characteristics of the decision-making process, which are often at odds if not diametrically opposed to each other. In a second step, it will therefore be argued that it is necessary to re-evaluate some of the central assumptions of procedural models. In particular, future research needs to study mechanisms of preference formation and decision-making, i.e. aggregation of preferences, within EU legislative bodies.

description: A novel method has been developed to estimate coke reactivity index (CRI) from coal properties through a kinetic approach. The model was derived from mass balance with a kinetic model of batch reactor CRI test. The parameters of kinetic model were optimized using non-linear least squared method. Three main properties of coals, i.e., Fe2O3 content, volatile matter, and coal rank were selected to predict the CRI. The predicted CRI value was in a good agreement with the CRI data. The standard error was less than 5. Coke strength after reaction (CSR) was predicted using linear regression of the CSR and CRI data. The estimated CSR was in good agreement with the CSR data. The sensitivity analysis of coal properties to CRI was also performed using the developed kinetic model. The model was successfully applied for coal blending to predict CRI of the produced coke with standard error 3.7. This model can explain well the catalytic effect of coal and coal blend properties to coke reactivity during the CRI test.

description: Après avoir constaté l’embarras suscité par l’utilisation de la biographie en histoire ancienne, nous avons choisi de discuter, non pas du manque de documents – qui est pourtant l’une des difficultés de la biographie en histoire ancienne –, mais du caractère des informations que contiennent les documents littéraires. Si cette question est récurrente pour l’histoire de l’antiquité, elle est particulièrement évidente lorsque l’on tente de rédiger la biographie d’une femme.

description: We grew single-crystal thin films of a topological crystalline insulator (TCI) SnTe with a smooth surface at the atomic scale by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). In the magnetoresistance (MR) measurement, we observed both positive and negative components near zero magnetic field at lowest temperatures of 2 - 3 K, while we observed only a negative MR at elevated temperatures of 6 - 10 K. The positive MR is attributed to the weak antilocalization (WAL) in the transport through the topological surface state (SS), demonstrating $π$ berry phase which is essential to the topological SS, while the negative MR to the weak localization (WL) in the transport through the bulk state (two-dimensional bulk subbbands). The absolute value of the prefactor $ α$ deduced from the fitting of the observed positive MR to the Hikami-Larkin-Nagaoka equation was much smaller than expected from the number of transport channel of the SS, suggesting the coupling of the SS to the bulk state.

description: In a context of product innovation, we study two-part tariff licensing between a patentee and a potential rival which compete in a differentiated product market characterized by network externalities. The latter are shown to crucially affect the relative profitability of Cournot vs. Bertrand when a per unit royalty is applied. By contrast, we find that Cournot yields higher profits than Bertrand under ad valorem royalties, regardless of the strength of network effects.

description: SU($N_c$) gauge theories containing matter fields may be invariant under transformations of some subgroup of the $\mathbb{Z}_{N_c}$ center; the maximum such subgroup is $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$, with $p$ depending on $N_c$ and the representations of the various matter fields in the theory. Confining SU($N_c$) gauge theories in either 3+1 or 2+1 space-time dimensions and with matter fields in any representation have string tensions for representation $R$ given by $σ_R =σ_f \, \, \frac{p_R (p-p_R) \, \, g\left (p_R (p-p_R) \right )}{(p-1) \, \, g(p -1 )} $ with $p_R={n_R \, \rm mod}(p)$, where $σ_f $ is the string tension for the fundamental representation, $g$ is a positive finite function and $n_R$ is the n-ality of $R$. This implies that a necessary condition for a theory in this class to have an area law is invariance of the theory under a nontrivial subgroup of the center. Significantly, these results depend on $p$ regardless of the value of $N_c$.

description: Moisture content in coal powder is a critical index because it controls the difficulty of coal handling and ultimately its combustion efficiency in coal-fired power plants. A unilateral proton nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) scanner was applied in a laboratory to nondestructively quantify moisture content in powdered samples of brown and subbituminous coals. Due to the open geometry of the sensor unit, the scanner allows the nondestructive moisture quantification of a portion several millimeters below the surface of a large sample. Proton transverse relaxation was measured by the unilateral NMR scanner, and obtained moisture content values were compared with those by a conventional bilateral NMR apparatus. The comparison showed reasonable agreement with a root mean square residual of 4.1 wt.%H2O for a moisture content range of > 12 wt.%H2O (wet basis). This moisture-quantification performance by unilateral NMR is sufficient for the quality control of wet coal having a critical value of approximately 30 wt.%H2O in terms of the handling property (flow-ability). Because unilateral NMR requires no specific sample preparation, such as sample insertion into tubes, the system is potentially applicable to in-situ nondestructive monitoring of the coal moisture in power plants to contribute to improved efficiency of handling and combustion.

description: La réflexion sur la biographie a connu un renouvellement important ces vingt dernières années dans plusieurs disciplines. Florissant sur le marché ditorial, ce genre ancien trouve aujourd’hui des formes nouvelles, nourries de la galaxie des sciences humaines contemporaines, comme en témoigne l’ouvrage de François Dosse, Le Pari biographique (La Découverte, 2005). Genre fondateur en histoire de l’art, la biographie est pratiquée peu ou prou dans la plupart des disciplines des lettres. Bonne raison pour se pencher de manière interdisciplinaire sur le genre et sa pratique. La vogue des éloges académiques au XVIIIe siècle, et la profusion du discours biographique sur les artistes à l’orée du Romantisme ont ouvert la voie à la fameuse «méthode biographique» de Sainte-Beuve, et à sa reconversion dans les programmes d’enseignement, par le biais de Gustave Lanson et de ses émules. Inculqué à des générations d’élèves, devenu une structure invisible de l’entendement universitaire dans les disciplines littéraires, le couple « la vie et l’œuvre » a été sévèrement reconsidéré, au XXe siècle, par les approches formalistes, structuralistes ou sociologiques. Qu’en est-il de ce genre actuellement? Comment les travaux de littéraires, d’historiens, d’historiens de l’art, de philosophes envisagent-ils les données biographiques?

description: High-purity germanium detectors are well suited to analysis the radioactivity of samples. In order to reduce the environmental background, low-activity lead and oxygen free copper are installed outside of the probe to shield gammas, outmost is a plastic scintillator to veto the cosmic rays, and an anti-Compton detector can improve the Peak-to-Compton ratio. Using the GEANT4 tools and taking into account a detailed description of the detector, we optimize the sizes of the detectors to reach the design indexes. A group of experimental data from a HPGe spectrometer in using were used to compare with the simulation. As to new HPGe Detector simulation, considering the different thickness of BGO crystals and anti-coincidence efficiency, the simulation results show that the optimal thickness is 5.5cm, and the Peak-to-Compton ratio of 40K is raised to 1000 when the anti-coincidence efficiency is 0.85. As the background simulation, 15 cm oxygen-free copper plus 10 cm lead can reduce the environmental gamma rays to 0.0024 cps/100 cm3 Ge (50keV~2.8MeV), which is about 10-5 of environmental background.

description: Dans le contexte d’un climat de plus en plus chaud, l’étude de la répartition du permafrost dans tous les contextes morphoclimatiques des Alpes s’avère primordiale. S’insérant dans cette problématique, ce travail de mémoire a pour but l’étude des environnements périglaciaires du Sud des Alpes Suisses selon deux axes de recherche différents. D’un point de vue géographique, cette recherche propose une étude régionale et locale de la répartition du permafrost dans les Alpes Tessinoises orientales. Un modèle régional de la répartition potentielle du permafrost discontinu a été utilisé pour visualiser la répartition du permafrost dans la zone étudiée. Ce modèle a aussi permis, en combinaison avec la datation relative des glaciers rocheux fossiles, de déterminer la répartition du permafrost au Tardiglaciaire. Au niveau local, la prospection géophysique de détail de la Valle di Sceru, effectuée à l’aide de méthodes thermiques, de résistivité et électromagnétiques, a permis de dresser une carte de la répartition du permafrost. D’un point de vue méthodologique, deux méthodes électromagnétiques (EM 31 et VLF-R) et la polarisation spontanée (PS) ont été testées dans l’étude des environnements périglaciaires alpins. La combinaison des données à deux profondeurs d’investigation différentes obtenues avec l’EM 31 a permis de créer un indice rho-h permettant de déterminer les variations relatives de conductivité avec la profondeur. En ce qui concerne le VLF-R, cette méthode a montré une bonne complémentarité avec les sondages géoélectriques, tantôt du point de vue des résultats que de l’interprétation des mesures. A l’aide de la méthode PS, enfin, il a été possible de mettre en évidence certains mouvements d’eau à l’intérieur des terrains sédimentaires meubles de la zone périglaciaire alpine. Des comportements hydrologiques différents ont pu être mis en évidence selon la probabilité d’occurrence de permafrost dans les formes étudiées.
