description: Η παρούσα διπλωματική εργασία έχει ως στόχο την αποτύπωση και ανάλυση των βιωμάτων Ελλήνων ομοφυλόφιλων αντρών ώστε να διερευνήσει την αντίληψή τους για τους λόγους που τους οδήγησαν στην χρήση και την εξάρτηση. Διενεργήθηκε ποιοτική έρευνα μέσω ημι-δομημένων συνεντεύξεων. Το δείγμα αποτελείται από τρεις ομοφυλόφιλους άνδρες (από 35 έως 45 ετών) σε διαδικασία απεξάρτησης από ουσίες. Τα δεδομένα αναλύθηκαν ακολουθώντας την μέθοδο της ερμηνευτικής φαινομενολογικής ανάλυσης. Από τις συνεντεύξεις αναδύθηκαν πέντε κεντρικά θέματα (και 31 υποθέματα) τα οποία είναι: η δυσκολία αποδοχής από το οικογενειακό περιβάλλον, ο κρυφός εαυτός, μια διαρκής εσωτερική δυσφορία, ο ρόλος των ουσιών και η θεραπευτική εμπειρία. Μέσα από την ανάλυση των βιωμάτων τους, φαίνεται πως οι συμμετέχοντες βιώνουν την Ελλάδα ως ένα πιεστικό περιβάλλον. Η μη αποδοχή της διαφορετικότητας τους από την οικογένεια και τον ευρύτερο κοινωνικό τους περίγυρο σε συνδυασμό με το δομικό στίγμα προς τους ομοφυλόφιλους αποτελούν τους περιβαλλοντικούς παράγοντες που συνέβαλαν στην εμπλοκή τους με την χρήση ψυχοτρόπων ουσιών. Η χρήση γίνεται τρόπος αντιμετώπισης των στρεσογόνων παραγόντων που συνδέονται με τον σεξουαλικό προσανατολισμό και το μειονοτικό στρες. Επιπλέον, η σύνδεση του σεξ με ψυχοτρόπες ουσίες (chemsex) προκαλεί το πέρασμα από την χρήση στην εξάρτηση. Η παρούσα έρευνα μπορεί να βοηθήσει τους επαγγελματίες υγείας στην καλύτερη κατανόηση και αντιμετώπιση ομοφυλόφιλων αντρών που προσεγγίζουν θεραπευτικά προγράμματα απεξάρτησης
description: The aim of the present master thesis is to explore the perspectives of Greek gay men regarding the factors that led them to substance use and abuse. A qualitative design was used, and semi-structured interviews were conducted. Three homosexual men (from 35 to 45 years old) participated in this study. The Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis method was applied to analyze the interviews. Five central themes (and 31 sub-themes) emerged from the interviews, namely: 1) barriers to family acceptance; 2) the hidden self; 3) continuous internal distress; 4) the role of substances and 5) the therapeutic experience. Participants perceived Greece as a stressful environment. Risk factors for substance use and abuse were the non-acceptance of their sexual orientation by their family and close social networks and structural stigma. Substance use was considered a mechanism to cope with stressful factors and minority stress. Substance abuse led to addiction through the relationship between sexual activity and legal/illegal substances, a phenomenon known as ‘chemsex’. The results of the current study can be useful to clinicians (and researchers) for the better understanding and treatment of homosexual men with substance abuse disorder

Chiral potential renormalized in harmonic-oscillator space

description: We renormalize the chiral effective field theory (EFT) potential in harmonic-oscillator (HO) model space. The low energy constants (LECs) are utilized to absorb not just the ultra-violet part of the physics due to the cutoff, but also the infrared part due to the truncation of model space. We use the inverse J-matrix method to reproduce the nucleon-nucleon (NN) scattering phase shifts in the given model space. We demonstrate that by including the NLO correction, the nucleon-nucleon scattering in the continuum could be well reproduced in the truncated HO trap space up to laboratory energy $T_{lab}=100$ MeV with number of HO basis $n_{max}$ as small as 10. A perturbative power counting starts at subleading order is adopted in this work, and how to extract the perturbative contribution is demonstrated. Our work serves as the input to perform ab-initio calculations.

description: Organic carbon (OC) association with soil minerals stabilizes OC on timescales reflecting the strength of mineral–C interactions. We applied ramped thermal oxidation to subsoil B horizons with different mineral–C associations to separate OC according to increasing temperature of oxidation, i.e. thermal activation energy. Generally, OC released at lower temperatures was richer in bioavailable forms like polysaccharides, while OC released at higher temperatures was more aromatic. Organic carbon associated with pedogenic oxides was released at lower temperatures and had a narrow range of 14C content. By contrast, N-rich compounds were released at higher temperatures from samples with 2 : 1 clays and short-range ordered (SRO) amorphous minerals. Temperatures of release overlapped for SRO minerals and crystalline oxides, although the mean age of OC released was older for the SRO. In soils with more mixed mineralogy, the added presence of older OC released at temperatures greater than 450°C from clays resulted in a broader distribution of OC ages within the sample, especially for soils rich in 2 : 1 layer expandable clays such as smectite. While pedogenic setting affects mineral stability and absolute OC age, mineralogy controls the structure of OC age distribution within a sample, which may provide insight into model structures and OC dynamics under changing conditions.This article is part of the theme issue ‘Radiocarbon in the Anthropocene’.

description: Η κλιμάκωση της τεχνολογίας CMOS επέτρεψε μια εκπληκτική ανάπτυξη στην υπολογιστική ικανότητα τις τελευταίες 4 δεκαετίες. Με τον αριθμό των τρανζίστορ σε ένα chip να πλησιάζει γρήγορα το 1 δισεκατομμύριο και την ενσωματωμένη μνήμη cache να κυριαρχεί στην επιφάνεια του chip, η διαχείριση ισχύος έχει καταστεί απαραίτητη σε μικροεπεξεργαστές υψηλής τεχνολογίας για οικονομικά αποδοτικές λύσεις συσκευασίας και ψύξης.

description: The scaling of CMOS technology has enabled a phenomenal growth in computing power over the last 4 decades. With the number of transistors on a chip fast approaching 1 billion and on-chip cache dominating the chip area, power management has become essential in high-end microprocessors for cost-effective packaging and cooling solutions. Power management is also a concern in mobile devices and devices using Internet of Thing (IoT) applications, where low standby power operation is crucial. This work investigates design techniques aimed at low energy consumption, at all levels of a digital circuit design. In the main body of the paper, the techniques are analyzed at four levels, at system level, at architectural level, at register transfer level and logic/cell level and finally at transistor level. Then an application chapter for power consumption in embedded systems is presented and finally the conclusions of the research are listed and future work is suggested

description: Studies of \textit{BATSE} bursts \citep{kouveliotou:93} have resulted in the widespread adoption of a two-group categorization: long bursts (those with durations $\geq 2$ seconds) and short bursts (those with durations $\leq 2$ seconds). This categorization, one must recall, used the observed $T_{90}$ time durations for bursts (during which 90\% of a burst's fluence is measured). In this work, we have explored two ideas: 1) a statistical search for a possible third, intermediate category of bursts (between the "short" and the "long" ones) among 2041 \textit{BATSE} GRBs and 757 \textit{Swift/BAT} ones, 2) a study of bursts' intrinsic durations, where durations in the bursts' reference frames (instead of the observed durations) are considered, for this, 248 \textit{Swift/BAT} bursts that have redshift measurements were statistically analyzed for the same categorization goal. We first use a Monte Carlo method to determine the proper binning of each GRB, considering that bursts come with different uncertainties on their durations. Then, using the method of minimization of chi-square $χ^2$, we search for the best fit of the normalized frequency distributions $\frac{1}{N_0}\frac{dN}{d\ln{T}}$ of durations, this allows us to compare fits with two groups ("short" and "long") with fits with three groups ("short", "long", and "intermediate"). Our results indicate that the distributions of observed durations are better fitted by three groups than two groups for \textit{Swift/BAT} data, interestingly, the "intermediate" group appears rather clearly for both observed and intrinsic durations. For BATSE data, the statistical test does not prefer three groups over two. We discuss the results, their possible underlying causes, and reasonable interpretations.

Higher derivative corrections to WZ action: One RR, one NSNS and one NS couplings

name: Garousi, Mohammad R.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: In the first part of this paper, we calculate the disk-level S-matrix elements of one RR, one NSNS and one NS vertex operators, and show that they are consistent with the amplitudes that have been recently found by applying various Ward identities. We show that the massless poles of the amplitude at low energy are fully consistent with the known D-brane couplings at order $α'^2$ which involve one RR or NSNS and two NS fields. Subtracting the massless poles, we then find the contact terms of one RR, one NSNS and one NS fields at order $α'^2$. Some of these terms are reproduced by the Taylor expansion and the pull-back of two closed string couplings, some other couplings are reproduced by linear graviton in the second fundamental form and by the B-field in the gauge field extension $F\rightarrow F+B$, in one closed and two open string couplings. In the second part, we write all independent covariant contractions of one RR, one NSNS and one NS fields with unknown coefficients. We then constrain the couplings to be consistent with the linear T-duality and with the above contact terms. Interestingly, we have found that up to total derivative terms and Bianchi identities, these constraints uniquely fix all the unknown coefficients.

description: Beyond the regime of distinguishable particles, many-body quantum interferences influence quantum transport in an intricate manner. However, symmetries of the single-particle transformation matrix alleviate this complexity and even allow the analytic formulation of suppression laws, which predict final states to occur with a vanishing probability due to total destructive interference. Here we investigate the symmetries of hypercube graphs and their generalizations with arbitrary identical subgraphs on all vertices. We find that initial many-particle states, which are invariant under self-inverse symmetries of the hypercube, lead to a large number of suppressed final states. The condition for suppression is determined solely by the initial symmetry, while the fraction of suppressed states is given by the number of independent symmetries of the initial state. Our findings reveal new insights into particle statistics for ensembles of indistinguishable bosons and fermions and may represent a first step towards many-particle quantum protocols in higher-dimensional structures.

description: Hyperentanglement is a promising resource in quantum information processing with its high capacity character, defined as the entanglement in multiple degrees of freedom (DOFs) of a quantum system, such as polarization, spatial-mode, orbit-angular-momentum, time-bin and frequency DOFs of photons. Recently, hyperentanglement attracts much attention as all the multiple DOFs can be used to carry information in quantum information processing fully. In this review, we present an overview of the progress achieved so far in the field of hyperentanglement in photon systems and some of its important applications in quantum information processing, including hyperentanglement generation, complete hyperentangled-Bell-state analysis, hyperentanglement concentration, and hyperentanglement purification for high-capacity long-distance quantum communication. Also, a scheme for hyper-controlled-not gate is introduced for hyperparallel photonic quantum computation, which can perform two controlled-not gate operations on both the polarization and spatial-mode DOFs and depress the resources consumed and the photonic dissipation.

description: We discuss the Renyi entanglement entropies of descendant states in critical one-dimensional systems with boundaries, that map to boundary conformal field theories in the scaling limit. We unify the previous conformal-field-theory approaches to describe primary and descendant states in systems with both open and closed boundaries. We provide universal expressions for the first two descendants in the identity family. We apply our technique to critical systems belonging to different universality classes with non-trivial boundary conditions that preserve conformal invariance, and find excellent agreement with numerical results obtained for finite spin chains. We also demonstrate that entanglement entropies are a powerful tool to resolve degeneracy of higher excited states in critical lattice models.

Multiscale modelling and simulation of physical systems as semiosis

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: It is explored how physicalist mereotopology and Peircean semiotics can be applied to represent models, simulations, and workflows in multiscale modelling and simulation of physical systems within a top-level ontology. It is argued that to conceptualize modelling and simulation in such a framework, two major types of semiosis need to be formalized and combined with each other: Interpretation, where a sign and a represented object yield an interpretant (another representamen for the same object), and metonymization, where the represented object and a sign are in a three-way relationship with another object to which the signification is transferred. It is outlined how the main elements of the pre-existing simulation workflow descriptions MODA and OSMO, i.e., use cases, models, solvers, and processors, can be aligned with a top-level ontology that implements this ontological paradigm, which is here referred to as mereosemiotic physicalism.

description: The film industry is undergoing a revolution with the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies. AI is being used in various stages of filmmaking, from scriptwriting to post-production and audience engagement. In scriptwriting and content generation, AI’s Natural Language Processing algorithms analyze data to generate storylines, characters, and dialogue, assisting writers in their creative process. During pre-production, AI aids in casting decisions by analyzing actors’ past performances and physical features. AI-driven virtual production techniques using virtual reality and augmented reality enable filmmakers to visualize and plan their films effectively. In visual effects and post-production, AI generates realistic CGI and automates tasks like color grading and video editing. AI also plays a significant role in audience engagement and marketing through sentiment analysis and personalized content recommendations. Furthermore, AI is employed in film restoration and preservation, digitally restoring damaged footage and ensuring the longevity of classic films. The integration of AI in the film industry has streamlined workflows, expanded creative possibilities, and enhanced cinematic experiences. As AI continues to advance, it will shape the future of filmmaking and push the boundaries of storytelling.

description: It has been suggested that non-relativistic outflows from quasars can naturally account for the missing component of the extragalactic $γ$-ray background and explain the cumulative neutrino background through pion decay in collisions between protons accelerated by the outflow shock and interstellar protons. Here we show that the same quasar outflows are capable of accelerating protons to energies of $\sim 10^{20}$ eV during the early phase of their propagation. The overall quasar population is expected to produce a cumulative ultra high energy cosmic ray flux of $\sim10^{-7}\,\rm GeV\,cm^{-2}s^{-1}sr^{-1}$ at $E_{\rm CR}\gtrsim10^{18}$ eV. The spectral shape and amplitude is consistent with recent observations for outflow parameters constrained to fit secondary $γ$-rays and neutrinos without any additional parameter tuning. This indicates that quasar outflows simultaneously account for all three messengers at their observed levels.

description: We consider localized soliton-like solutions in the presence of a stable scalar condensate background. By the analogy with classical mechanics, it can be shown that there may exist solutions of the nonlinear equations of motion that describe dips or rises in the spatially-uniform charge distribution. We also present explicit analytical solutions for some of such objects and examine their properties.

description: Σκοπός της συγκεκριμένης μελέτης είναι να εξετάσει τον ρόλο και τα καθήκοντα της μαίας κατά την αρχαιότητα τόσο στην Ελλάδα, όσο και σε διάφορους άλλους πολιτισμούς. Από την εξής μελέτη διακρίνεται ότι οι μαίες κατείχαν εξέχουσα θέση στην κοινωνία όπου απασχολούνταν. Ήταν πρόσωπα που λάμβαναν σεβασμό και εκτίμηση, διέθεταν υψηλό κύρος και λάμβαναν αξιόλογη κοινωνική αποδοχή. Συγκεκριμένα, η προσφορά τους, ειδικότερα σε περιοχές της επαρχίας, ήταν καθοριστική, καθώς συνέβαλλαν στην φροντίδα της μητρότητας και του νεογνού και στην διεκπεραίωση τοκετών με αίσιο τέλος παρότι διέθεταν πενιχρά μέσα. Σημαντικότερα, η ανάπτυξη Μαιευτικών σχολών (20ο αιώνα) είχε ως αποτέλεσμα την αντικατάσταση των πρακτικών μαιών και την διαμόρφωση νέων μαιών με επιστημονικές γνώσεις. Σταδιακά παρατηρείται ότι στο τέλος του αιώνα το επάγγελμα της Μαιευτικής αρχίζει να ιατρικοποιείται καθώς τα ηνία αναλαμβάνουν πλέον οι ιατροί, με αποτέλεσμα την εμπορευματοποίηση του τοκετού
description: The aim of this study is to examine the role and duties of the midwife in antiquity, both in Greece and in various other cultures. From the following study, it can be seen that midwives held a prominent position in the society where they were employed. They were persons who received respect and esteem, possessed high prestige and received remarkable social acceptance. In particular, their contribution, especially in rural areas, was decisive, as they contributed to the care of the mother and the newborn and to the carrying out of deliveries with a happy ending despite their meagre resources. More significantly, the development of midwifery schools in the early 20th century resulted in the replacement of practical midwives and the formation of new midwives with scientific knowledge. Gradually, it is observed that at the end of the century, the profession of midwifery begins to be medicalised as the reins are now taken over by medical doctors, resulting in the commercialisation of childbirth.

description: A major goal of axion searches is to reach inside the parameter space region of realistic axion models. Currently, the boundaries of this region depend on somewhat arbitrary criteria, and it would be desirable to specify them in terms of precise phenomenological requirements. We consider hadronic axion models and classify the representations $R_Q$ of the new heavy quarks $Q$. By requiring that $i)$ the $Q$ are sufficiently short lived to avoid issues with long lived strongly interacting relics, $ii)$ no Landau poles are induced below the Planck scale, fifteen cases are selected, which define a phenomenologically preferred axion window bounded by a maximum (minimum) value of the axion-photon coupling about twice (four times) larger than commonly assumed. Allowing for more than one $R_Q$, larger couplings, as well as complete axion-photon decoupling, become possible.

Quantum engines and the range of the second law of thermodynamics in the noncommutative phase-space

description: Two testable schemes for quantum heat engines are investigated under the quantization framework of noncommutative (NC) quantum mechanics (QM). By identifying the phenomenological connection between the phase-space NC driving parameters and an effective external magnetic field, the NC effects on the efficiency coefficient, \mathcal{N} , of quantum engines can be quantified for two different cycles: an isomagnetic one and an isoenergetic one. In addition, paying a special attention to the quantum Carnot cycle, one notices that the inclusion of NC effects does not affect the maximal (Carnot) efficiency, \mathcal{N}^C, ratifying the robustness of the second law of thermodynamics.

description: Σκοπός της παρούσας μελέτης είναι να αξιολογήσει τη συλλογή ενέργειας από εναλλακτική πηγή ενέργειας και συγκεκριμένα από μια διάταξη που ονομάζεται τριβοηλεκτρική νανογεννήτρια και παράγει ενέργεια μέσω του φαινομένου της τριβής. Σχεδιάστηκε ένα ολοκληρωμένο κύκλωμα διαχείρισης της ενέργειας που παράγεται από τριβογεννήτρια με χρήση του Cadence στη διαθέσιμη τεχνολογία XFAB XH018 180nm. Αρχικά, παρουσιάζεται ο τρόπος λειτουργίας αυτών των γεννητριών. Επίσης αναφέρονται μερικοί σχεδιασμοί κυκλωμάτων που επεξεργάζονται την έξοδο της γεννήτριας, ώστε να μπορεί η ενέργεια αυτή να αποθηκευτεί ή να χρησιμοποιηθεί για την τροφοδοσία σύγχρονων ηλεκτρονικών διατάξεων. Στη συνέχεια, παρουσιάζεται το σύστημα που σχεδιάστηκε και αναλύεται η λειτουργία του, τόσο θεωρητικά όσο και πρακτικά μέσω προσομοιώσεων. Επιπλέον, πραγματοποιείται ο φυσικός σχεδιασμός των κυκλωμάτων που αποτελούν το σύστημα διαχείρισης ενέργειας και διεξάγονται προσομοιώσεις και μετά τον σχεδιασμό αυτό. Τέλος, αναφέρονται τα συμπεράσματα που εξήχθησαν από αυτήν την έρευνα και προτείνονται τρόποι βελτιστοποίησης του συστήματος
description: The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the energy harvesting from an alternative energy source, specifically from a device called a triboelectric nanogenerator, that produces energy through the effect of friction. A power management integrated circuit for a triboelectric nanogenerator is designed by using the Cadence design suite on the available XFAB XH018 180nm technology. Firstly, the mode of operation of these generators is presented. Also, some circuit designs are reported, that process the output of the generator, so that this energy can be stored or used to power modern electronic devices. Then, the designed system is presented, and its operation is analyzed, theoretically but also practically through simulations. In addition, the physical design (layout) of the circuits that consist of the power management system is implemented and post-layout simulations are performed. Finally, the conclusions derived from this research are reported and ways to optimize the system are suggested as well
