description: In occasione del novantesimo anniversario dalla nascita di Pio La Torre, e in sintonia con numerose celebrazioni istituzionali, la Rivista propone, all’interno di questa sezione, un documento il cui valore storico, politico e giudiziario è stato riconosciuto solo a distanza di anni. Si tratta della Relazione di minoranza datata 4 febbraio 1976, redatta dall’onorevole Pio La Torre, insieme al giudice Cesare Terranova e sottoscritta dai deputati Benedetti, Malagugini, e dai senatori Adamoli, Chiaromonte, Lugnano e Maffioletti alla fine della VI Legislatura.

La Relazione, qui integralmente ripubblicata - fatta esclusione per gli allegati -, si pone in netto contrasto con l’impianto della Relazione di maggioranza della Commissione parlamentare di inchiesta sul fenomeno della mafia in Sicilia, presieduta dal senatore Luigi Carraro. La valutazione fortemente critica proposta dai firmatari muove dall’accusa di aver omesso nella Relazione generale, il tema centrale per la comprensione del fenomeno mafioso ovvero il rapporto di compenetrazione tra il sistema di potere mafioso e l’apparato statuale-politico.

La Relazione, come può intuire il lettore, contiene già le premesse della proposta di legge di Pio La Torre sul reato di associazione mafiosa, che sarà approvata il 13 settembre 1982 e diventerà come Legge “Rognoni- La Torre” una pietra miliare della normativa antimafia italiana.

For the ninetieth anniversary of the birth of Pio La Torre, the Review proposes in this section the minority report dated 4 February 1976. The report was drawn up by the deputy La Torre, together with the judge Terranova and it was endorsed by deputies Benedetti, Malagugini and by senators Adamoli, Chiaromonte, Lugnano e Maffioletti by the end of the legislature.

The Review publishes the report fully, excluding the annexes. The document highlights limits, inconsistencies and reticence present within the majority report of the parliamentary Antimafia Commission, chaired by senator Carraro. The minority report focused in particular on the topic omitted by the majority: the interchange between mafia and politics.

Furthemore, the report contains the legislative proposals that have become law in 1982 (Law Rognoni-La Torre), just after the murders of Pio La Torre and Carlo Alberto dalla Chiesa.

description: PtII complexes of π-extended dipyrrolyldiketones were synthesized as anion-responsive π-electronic molecules. The dipyrrolyldiketone PtII complexes exhibited red-shifted absorption and photoluminescence properties. In the solid state, [1 + 1]-type anion complexes formed charge-by-charge ion-pairing assemblies when combined with countercations. Detailed theoretical studies of the packing structures revealed favorable interactions between the planar anion complexes and π-electronic cations. PtII complexes of π-extended dipyrrolyldiketones, introducing arylethynyl substituents, in the form of anion complexes exhibited the formation of charge-by-charge assemblies with π-electronic cations via iπ–iπ interactions.

Summary

A man and his wife, members of a senatorial family and without children, decided to make the church of Lyon their heir. The man died first and was buried in the church of Mary in Lyon. The woman prayed, attended mass every day and made offerings on behalf of the memory of her husband. When she did this she always presented a sextarius of wine from Gaza to the church, but the subdeacon kept the wine for himself and offered bitter vinegar instead of this wine during the mass (as he knew that she did not always come forward for the wine). The husband appeared to his wife in a vision and told her about the fraud. Next day she took wine at the eucharist and found it to be the bitterest of vinegar. She rebuked the subdeacon and corrected the fault.

description: It is of great significance to grasp the role of surface topography in de-icing, which however remains unclear yet. Herein, four textured surfaces are developed by regulating surface topography while keeping surface chemistry and material constituents same. Specifically, nano-textures are maintained and micro-textures are gradually enlarged. The resultant ice adhesion strength is proportional to a topography parameter, i.e. areal fraction of the micro-textures, owing to the localized bonding strengthening, which is verified by ice detachment simulation using finite element method. Moreover, the decisive topography parameter is demonstrated to be determined by the interfacial strength distribution between ice and test surface. Such parameters vary from paper to paper due to different interfacial strength distributions corresponding to respective situations. Furthermore, since hydrophobic and de-icing performance may rely on different topography parameters, there is no certain relationship between hydrophobicity and de-icing. The role of surface topography in de-icing is verified to be determined by the interfacial strength distribution between ice and surface experimentally and numerically, unveiling the relationship between hydrophobicity and de-icing.

Summary:

Bishop Memmius is the particular patron (proprius patronus) of Châlons-en-Champagne. It is said that when he was still alive in his mortal body, he revived a dead man (qui cum adhuc maneret in corpore mortali, mortuum dicitur suscitasse). Gregory visited his tomb at Châlons and observed the broken chains and fetters of poor people there. He himself experienced the power of Memmius when one of his servants suffered from fever and vomiting. Gregory prayed in the church of Memmius that the one who often shattered the bonds of those labouring in chains should free his servant from fever, and his servant was healed.

description: We synthesized high-heat-resistant adhesives based on metal – organic frameworks owing to their high decomposition temperature and the absence of a glass transition. Heat-resistance tests were performed on adhesive joints consisting of zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF)-67-based adhesives and a copper substrate. The as-synthesized ZIF-67-based adhesive exhibited heat resistances at 600 and 700°C in air and nitrogen atmospheres, respectively, comparable to those of conventional high-heat-resistant polymer-based adhesives. The degradation mechanism of the ZIF-67 adhesives was investigated, and their high heat resistance was attributed to the stable existence of the ZIF-67 qtz phase in the adhesive layer at high temperatures without the formation of voids. Thus, adhesives based on ZIF-67 and other metal – organic frameworks can be applied in high-temperature industrial systems. By focusing on its high thermal stability and absence of glass transition, the ZIF-67 gel was found to have high potential that is comparable to existing heat-resistant adhesives.

description: Financial institutions suffer substantial losses dueto fraudulent online transactions. Traditional fraud detectionmethods often fail to identify evolving fraud patterns due todataset imbalance and high false negative rates. This paperproposes an adaptive fraud detection system integrating a valueat-risk (VaR) metric with machine learning techniques. Thesystem uses historical simulation to estimate potential fraudrelated losses and employs K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) to classifyfraudulent transactions. The proposed approach enhances frauddetection accuracy while minimizing false negatives, providing aneffective fraud prevention framework for financial institutions.

description: The synergistic disruption of intracellular redox homeostasis through the combination of ferroptosis/gas therapy shows promise in enhancing the antitumor efficacy. However, the development of an optimal delivery system encounters significant challenges, including effective storage, precise delivery, and controlled release of therapeutic gas. In this study, we propose the utilization of a redox homeostasis disruptor that is selectively activated by the tumor microenvironment (TME), in conjunction with our newly developed nanoplatforms (MC@HMOS@Au@RGD), for highly efficient ferroptosis therapy of tumors. The TME-triggered degradation of HMOS initiates the release of MC and AuNPs from the MC@HMOS@Au@RGD nanoplatform. The released MC subsequently reacts with endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and H+ to enable the on-demand release of CO gas, leading to mitochondrial damage. Simultaneously, the released AuNPs exhibit GOx-like activity, catalyzing glucose to generate gluconic acid and H2O2. This process not only promotes the decomposition of MnCO to enhance CO production but also enhances the Fenton-like reaction between Mn2+ and H2O2, generating ROS through the modulation of the H+ and H2O2-enriched TME. Moreover, the generation of CO bubbles enables the monitoring of the ferroptosis treatment process through ultrasound (US) imaging. The efficacy of our prepared MC@HMOS@Au@RGD disruptors in ferroptosis therapy is validated through both in vitro and in vivo experiments. A strategy of disrupted redox homeostasis specifically initiated by the tumor microenvironment and our constructed MC@HMOS@Au@RGD nanoplatforms is proposed for ultrasound (US) imaging-guided potent ferroptosis therapy of tumors.

description: Temperature-dependent plastic deformation behaviors of single crystals of quaternary and ternary equiatomic medium-entropy alloys (MEAs) belonging to the Cr-Mn-Fe-Co-Ni system were investigated in compression at temperatures in the range 9 K to 1373 K. Their critical resolved shear stresses (CRSSs) increase with decreasing temperature below room temperature. There is also a dulling of the temperature dependence of CRSS below 77 K due to dislocation inertial effects that we attribute to a decrease in the phonon drag coefficient. These behaviors were compared with those of previously investigated single crystals of the equiatomic Cr-Co-Ni and Cr-Fe-Co-Ni MEAs, and the equiatomic Cr-Mn-Fe-Co-Ni high-entropy alloy (HEA). The temperature dependence of CRSS and the apparent activation volumes below room temperature can be well described by conventional thermal activation theories of face-centered cubic (FCC) alloys. Above 673 K, there is a small increase in CRSS, which we believe is due to elastic interactions between solutes and mobile dislocations, the so-called Portevin-Le Chatelier (PL) effect. The CRSS at 0 K was obtained by extrapolation of fitted CRSS vs. temperature curves and compared with predictions from solid solution strengthening models of HEA and MEAs. The novelty of our work entitled ‘Analysis of the temperature-dependent plastic deformation of single crystals of quinary, quaternary and ternary equiatomic high- and medium-entropy alloys of the Cr-Mn-Fe-Co-Ni system’ can be summarized as follows: The temperature dependences of CRSS were experimentally deduced from bulk single crystals of the six MEAs for the first time, so that fair comparison among the FCC HEA/MEAs is made.

Habet et Ebredunensis urbs patronum proprium Marcellinum antestitem, per quem, dum adhuc in corpore moraretur, multa Christus miracula operatus est. Hic enim fecisse dicitur lavacrum ad baptizandum, in quo natale Domini dominicae caenae aqua dicitur divinitus exoriri. De quo etiam ad aliud lavacrum, in quo consuetudo prisca baptizaris instituit, aqua defertur; non tamen cumulatur, ut de illis fontibus Hispaniae supra retulimus. Ad huius ergo sancti sepulchrum lychnus assidue lumen praebet; sed accensus semel multis noctibus sine ullo additamento perdurat. Et plerumque contingit, ut extinctus a vento, divinitus iterum accendatur. Ex quo oleo plerumque infirmi medicamenta suscipiunt.

'Embrun has bishop Marcellinus as its special patron. Christ worked many miracles through Marcellinus while he was still in his body. He is said to have made a pool for baptism, in which water is said to rise by divine power on the anniversary of the Lord’s Supper. The water is brought from this pool to another that an ancient tradition instituted for baptism; but it does not overflow, [just] as I mentioned above in the case of the springs in Spain. A lamp constantly offers light at the tomb of this saint; once it is lit, it burns for many nights without any additional [oil]. Often it happens that if the lamp is blown out by the wind, it is lit again by divine power. Often ill people take the oil from this lamp as medicine.'

Um die Ergebnisse, die unter anderem paläoklimatische Aspekte bereithalten chronologisch einzuordnen und einen Kontext mit der Paläoumwelt herzustellen werden die heutigen Klimabedingungen und mögliche Ausprägungen der Paläoumwelt des Untersuchungsgebietes vorgestellt (Kapitel 4)  und mit verschiedenen Paläoumweltarchiven des südosteuropäischen Raumes verglichen. Dies bezieht sich besonders auf den Zeitraum um 18 ka BP, was der Datierung der Fundschicht 3A entspricht (vgl. Kapitel 3.2) und das LGM. Die Ergebnisse der mikromorphologischen Analyse sollen die generellen Charakteristika des Westprofiles des Grabungsschnittes V (vgl. Kapitel 3.2) in der Blazi Cave herausstellen. Dies beinhaltet die Sedimentzusammensetzung, Dichte, Lagerung sowie die Verteilung der Komponenten und des enthaltenen archäologischen Materials, in den aus den Proben präparierten Dünnschliffen (vgl. Kapitel 7). Dies impliziert auch die Darstellung der Verhältnisse und Grenzen der Schichten, insbesondere der Schichten 2 und 3. Zudem soll die Trennung mehrerer potenzieller Besiedlungsphasen der Schichten 3A und 3B erfolgen. Ein besonderes Augenmerk gilt im Zuge der regionalen Forschungsgeschichte (vgl. Kapitel 1.1) der Detektion von Diskordanzen, Erosionsereignisse, die sich unter anderem in anthropogen oder biogen verlagerten Schichten zeigen können, für die allerdings auch fluviale oder kryoturbate Prozesse (vgl. Kapitel 5.3.4) in Betracht gezogen werden.

Il traffico illecito di armi: appunti per un’analisi

Year: 2017

description: L’articolo offre un’analisi preliminare del funzionamento del mercato illecito delle armi a livello internazionale, soffermandosi sul ruolo svolto dalle organizzazioni criminali e, in particolare, dalle mafie italiane. Sulla base delle informazioni contenute in una serie di studi e ricerche prodotti negli ultimi anni da organismi internazionali e istituti di ricerca specializzati, l’A. fornisce una lettura di più ampio respiro dei dati disponibili, della conformazione e delle caratteristiche del mercato e dei fattori in grado di alimentarlo, attraverso un’analisi comparata volta a evidenziare analogie e differenze esistenti con altri mercati illeciti, come quello delle droghe e degli esseri umani . Dall’analisi emerge come le modalità di acquisizione delle armi nel mercato illegale da parte della criminalità organizzata prevedano l’esistenza di forme di collaborazione e scambio sia con attori criminali attivi in Paesi considerati fonte primaria di approvvigionamento – come l’area balcanica – sia con esponenti del mondo legale, quali ad esempio produttori e funzionari corrotti in grado di agevolare le transazioni.

Parole chiave: armi, traffico illecito, criminalità organizzata, mafie, violenza

The article provides a preliminary analysis of the illicit arms market at international level, paying special attention to the role played by criminal organizations and, in particular, Italian mafias. On the basis of information provided by a number of studies and research carried out during the past few year by international organizations and specialized research institutions, the Author provides a wider analysis of the data available, the organization and characteristics of the market and the factors which facilitate it, through a comparative analysis aimed at stressing differences and similarities existing with other illegal markets, such as drugs and trafficking in human beings. It emerges from the analysis that arms’ acquisition modalities within the illegal market by organized crime groups foresee the presence of close partnerships and exchange practices with both criminal actors operating in source countries – such as the Balkan area – and with members of the legal world, such as, for example, arms producers and corrupted public officials who can facilitate the transactions.

description: We demonstrate a facile and safe anisotropic gas etching technique for β-Ga2O3 under atmospheric pressure using forming gas, a H2/N2 gas mixture containing 3.96 vol% H2. This etching gas, being neither explosive nor toxic, can be safely exhausted into the atmosphere, simplifying the etching system setup. Thermodynamic calculations confirm the viability of gas-phase etching above 676°C without the formation of Ga droplets. Experimental verification was achieved by etching (1ˉ02) β-Ga2O3 substrates within a temperature range of 700–950°C. Moreover, selective-area etching using this method yielded trenches and fins with vertical and flat sidewalls, defined by (100) facets with the lowest surface energy density, demonstrating significant anisotropic etching capability. This paper introduces a safe, plasma-free anisotropic etching technique for β-Ga2O3 using non-toxic forming gas, achieving high precision and efficiency in semiconductor processing.

description: Electrochemical grafting of organic molecules to metal surfaces has been well-known as an efficient tool enabling tailored modification of surface at the nanoscale. Among many compounds with the ability to undergo the process of electrografting, iodonium salts belong to less frequently used, especially when compared with the most popular diazonium salts. Meanwhile, due to their increased stability, iodonium salts may be used in situations where the use of diazonium salts is constrained. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of the electrochemical reduction of iodonium salts on the physicochemical properties of Pt electrodes, and the possibility to form pro-adhesive layers facilitating further functionalization purposes. Consequently, we have selected four commercially available iodonium salts (diphenyliodonium chloride, bis(4-tertbutylphenyl)iodonium hexafluorophosphate, (4-nitrophenyl)(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)iodonium triflate, bis(4-methylphenyl)iodonium hexafluorophosphate), and attached them to the surface of Pt electrodes by means of an electrochemical reduction process. As-formed layers were then extensively characterized in terms of wettability, roughness and charge transfer properties, and used as pro-adhesive coatings prior to the deposition of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate), PEDOT:PSS. Due to the increase in hydrophilicity and roughness, modified electrodes increased the stability of PEDOT:PSS coating while maintaining its high capacitance. Adhesion and charge transfer between PEDOT:PSS and the surface of the electrode are significantly improved by a simple electrode modification strategy using the electrochemical grafting of commercially available iodonium salts.

description: Temperature-dependent plastic deformation behaviors of single crystals of quaternary and ternary equiatomic medium-entropy alloys (MEAs) belonging to the Cr-Mn-Fe-Co-Ni system were investigated in compression at temperatures in the range 9 K to 1373 K. Their critical resolved shear stresses (CRSSs) increase with decreasing temperature below room temperature. There is also a dulling of the temperature dependence of CRSS below 77 K due to dislocation inertial effects that we attribute to a decrease in the phonon drag coefficient. These behaviors were compared with those of previously investigated single crystals of the equiatomic Cr-Co-Ni and Cr-Fe-Co-Ni MEAs, and the equiatomic Cr-Mn-Fe-Co-Ni high-entropy alloy (HEA). The temperature dependence of CRSS and the apparent activation volumes below room temperature can be well described by conventional thermal activation theories of face-centered cubic (FCC) alloys. Above 673 K, there is a small increase in CRSS, which we believe is due to elastic interactions between solutes and mobile dislocations, the so-called Portevin-Le Chatelier (PL) effect. The CRSS at 0 K was obtained by extrapolation of fitted CRSS vs. temperature curves and compared with predictions from solid solution strengthening models of HEA and MEAs. The novelty of our work entitled ‘Analysis of the temperature-dependent plastic deformation of single crystals of quinary, quaternary and ternary equiatomic high- and medium-entropy alloys of the Cr-Mn-Fe-Co-Ni system’ can be summarized as follows, The temperature dependences of CRSS were experimentally deduced from bulk single crystals of the six MEAs for the first time, so that fair comparison among the FCC HEA/MEAs is made.

Fig. 2 A2, B2–B 5; Fig. 7 and Fig. 8 C, D
Pleione × maoershanensis is a hybrid intermediate between P. pleionoides and P. hookeriana. It differs from the former by the lacerate lamellae (not denticulate) on the lip. It also differs from P. hookeriana by the brighter colour of flower and the deeply lacerate lamellae (not papillae or hair) on the lip.
Type: — CHINA. Guangxi: Xing’an County, Maoer Shan, Huilong Temple, 1600m, April 11, 2016, W. Zhang & Y. Yang ZW003 (holotype: KUN!).
Herbs, lithophytic. Pseudobulb ovoid to conic, 1.5–2.5 × 1–2 cm in diam, 1-leaved. Leaf immature at flowering, mature leaf elliptic-lanceolate, 10–20 × 3–4 cm, papery, apex acute. Inflorescence erect or suberect; peduncle 2.5–5 cm; floral bract 18–28 mm, exceeding ovary. Flowers solitary, bright rose. Dorsal sepal narrowly elliptic, 40–55 mm long, apex acute; lateral sepals slightly oblique, 35–50 mm long, slightly wider than dorsal sepal, apex acute. Petals oblanceolate, 35–60 mm long, narrower than dorsal sepal, apex acute; lip subrhombic, obovate or suborbicular when flattened, 35–50 × 30–49 mm, apical margin denticulate; disk with 4–6 deeply lacerate lamellae. Column 30–40 mm.
Phenology: —Flowering from late March to May.
Etymology:—Named after the highest mountain in South China (Maoer Shan), where this natural hybrid was discovered.
Distribution and habitat: Known only from the type locality. This hybrid grows on humus-covered rocks in forests or cliffs at forest margins, mixed with P. hookeriana at an elevation of 1300–1600 m. The hybrid was found only on rocks while P. hookeriana grows both on rocks and moss-covered trunks or branches of Lithocarpus hancei (Bentham) Rehder in a Tsuga / Rhododelldron forest from 1300 to 2000 m. The other parent, P. pleionoides, was not seen during our brief exploration of Maoer Shan. However, we collected samples of that species from Yinzhulaoshan Nature Reserve in Ziyuan County, a place less than 50 km away from Maoer Shan. The variation of lip morphology of P. × maoershanensis implies backcross between the hybrid and the parents (see Fig 2). This hybrid has also been raised artificially by Paul Cumbleton and registered as “ Pleione Potto ” (P. chunii × P. pleionoides) in 2009 at Royal Horticulture Society.

description: Already in 2012, Blom et al. reported (Nature Materials 2012, 11, 882) in semiconducting polymers on a general electron-trap density of ≈3 × 1017 cm−3, centered at an energy of ≈3.6 eV below vacuum. It was suggested that traps have an extrinsic origin, with the water-oxygen complex [2(H2O)-O2] as a possible candidate, based on its electron affinity. However, further evidence is lacking and the origin of universal electron traps remained elusive. Here, in polymer diodes, the temperature-dependence of reversible electron traps is investigated that develop under bias stress slowly over minutes to a density of 2 × 1017 cm−3, centered at an energy of 3.6 eV below vacuum. The trap build-up dynamics follows a 3rd-order kinetics, in line with that traps form via an encounter between three diffusing precursor particles. The accordance between universal and slowly evolving traps suggests that general electron traps in semiconducting polymers form via a triple-encounter process between oxygen and water molecules that form the suggested [2(H2O)-O2] complex as the trap origin. Formation of universal electron traps in polymer light-emitting diodes is a dynamic process that occurs via a slow triple-encounter between trap precursor species, with the water-oxygen [2(H2O)-O2] complex as a likely candidate.
