Frammenti di escatologia sciita: Dhū l-Qarnayn nell’opera di Ibn Bābawayh
Creators: name: Bottini, Laura
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Torino
Year: 2018
Subjects: Dhū l-Qarnayn; Alexander the Great; Muḥammad Ibn Bābawayh; Twelver Shi’ism

description: Sūrat al-Kahf, the eighteenth chapter of the Muslim Holy Book, transmits a story about a character, nicknamed Dhū l-Qarnayn which literally means ‘the two-horned one’. The ambiguity in the Quran in naming this figure led to a protracted debate about his identity: According to some sources it was Alexander the Great and according to others it was Cyrus or ʿAyyāsh. Scholars have already pointed to the importance of investigating the earliest stages of the accounts concerning this character with a view to understanding the entire tradition surrounding him. For this reason they have focused attention on the religious literature and, in particular, on the Sunni production of the Middle Ages. In this contribution, I will deal with the Twelver religious literature, in particular with four works written by Muḥammad Ibn Bābawayh, eminent traditionist and jurist who lived during the tenth century. Ibn Bābawayh narrates several accounts about Dhū l-Qarnayn in these works and in particular in the Kamāl al-dīn wa tamām al-niʿma fī ithbāt al-ghayba wa kashf al-ḥayra, one of the first works on the occultation of the twelfth imam. My analysis has a two-fold aim: To extrapolate the various motifs connected with Dhū l-Qarnayn in these texts and to verify how this character is utilized within the Imami circles in Ibn Bābawayh’s time.

Dal combattente a Omar Gatlato: Modelli di mascolinità nell’Algeria indipendente
Creators: name: Guardi, Jolanda
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Torino
Year: 2018
Subjects: Algeria; war of independence; Algerian cinema; Omar Gatlato

description: Shortly after independence (1962), Algeria put in place different political discourses in order to strengthen the new citizens’ identity. Among these the discourse about manhood was crucial and focused especially on the muǧāhid, the fighter, whose fighting allowed Algerian to conquer freedom and independence. Therefore, manhood became a political ideal engaging social and political dynamics devoted to define the man-woman relationships. Moreover, it helped constructing a collective and normative imaginary in line with the hegemonic masculinity (Robert Connell 1996), i.e., men’s identity was construed as a universal model influencing society as well as politics. In this paper I present different forms of this discourse and outline the characteristic of the “true” muǧāhid, underscoring how this was built in order to define an imaged manhood.

Translating Xi Jinping’s speeches: China’s search for discursive power between ‘political correctness’ and ‘external propaganda’
Creators: name: Zappone, Tanina
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Torino
Year: 2018
Subjects: Xi Jinping; political discourse; propaganda; translation

description: Assuming that politics is inseparably concerned with language, the paper provides some insights on the translation strategies adopted in western languages editions of the collection Xi Jinping: The Governance of China (Xi Jinping tan zhiguo lizheng 习近平谈治国理政), and on their potential impact in the perspective of China's external propaganda.
The article collocates the editorial project in the perspective of China' discursive power strategy, as one of many current initiatives aimed to spread "China's voice" in the world.
Since the volume apparently focuses on the construction of a heroic narrative around Xi Jinping's figure, the paper questions China's ability to adapt the Chinese leader's message for foreign rhetorical tastes and to build up a discourse able to attract and influence international public opinion. In particular, through an analysis of the translation process of the Italian edition of the book - where the author was involved as a translator - the paper tries to assess to what extent target-oriented strategies have influenced the choice of contents and translation in the book, as well as their effectiveness in terms of external propaganda.

description: Objectives: Dropout rates for effective therapies for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can be high, especially in practice settings. Although clinicians have intuitions regarding what treatment patients may complete, there are few systematic data to drive those judgments.
Methods: A multivariable model of dropout risk was constructed with randomized clinical trial data (n=160) comparing prolonged exposure (PE) and cognitive processing therapy (CPT) for rape-induced PTSD. A two-step bootstrapped variable selection algorithm was applied to identify moderators of dropout as a function of treatment condition. Employing identified moderators in a model, five-fold cross-validation yielded estimates of dropout probability for each patient in each condition. Dropout rates between patients who did and did not receive their model-indicated treatment were compared.
Results: Despite equivalent dropout rates across treatments, patients assigned to their model-indicated treatment were significantly less likely to drop out relative to patients who did not (relative risk = 0.49 [95% CI: 0.29 to 0.82]). Moderators included in the model were: childhood physical abuse, current relationship conflict, anger, and being a racial minority, all of which were associated with higher likelihood of dropout in PE than CPT.
Conclusions: Individual differences among patients affect the likelihood they will complete a particular treatment, and clinicians can consider these moderators in treatment planning. In the future, treatment selection models could be used to increase the percentage of patients who will receive a full course of treatment, but replication and extension of such models, and consideration of how best to integrate them into routine practice, are needed.

Elachista curonensis Traugott-Olsen, 1990: 63
Material studied. Type material. Holotype ♂: Holo-type [rounded with red margin], Italia Piemonte V. Curone/ Poggia di Casane (AL) 6.VI.1987 leg. Baldizzone; Elachista curonensis det. Traugott-Olsen, B.M. Genitalia Slide No.26342 (BMNH).
Diagnosis. Elachista curonensis is a relatively small species with a unicolorous creamy white forewing and grey hindwing. It most resembles E. nitidulella from which it is distinguished by the shape of the uncus lobe shape which is narrow and pointed in E. nitidulella, broad and distally nearly rounded in E. curonensis. The male genitalia of E. curonensis differ from those of E. dispilella by the large and somewhat ovoid gnathos and the shorter phallus of E. curonensis as compared to E. dispilella. The cornutus group is also shorter in E. curonensis than in E. dispilella. The female genitalia of E. curonensis, not studied here, are similar to those of E. distigmatella, E. bruuni, E. festucicolella, and E. bigorrensis on the basis of its characterization by Traugott-Olsen (1990). In the original description the position of ductus seminalis is not mentioned, so this character cannot be evaluated in the present context. Therefore this species is not included in the key. On the basis of the unicolorous forewing, it most resembles E. festucicolella and E. bigorrensis, but the small size of E. curonensis may distinguish it from these species.
Molecular characterization. No material was available for genetic study.
Redescription of male genitalia. Uncus lobes twice as long as wide, distally tapered towards nearly rounded and outward bent apex, mesial margin convex, lateral margin straight. Spinose knob of gnathos large, somewhat longer than its width. Valva 1.3 times as long as tegumen + uncus, narrow, 5.5 times as long as its width, nearly parallel-sided; cucullus elongate. Digitate process tongue-shaped with rounded apex, 0.25 times as long as valva, medially and distally with stout setae. Juxta lobes devoid of setae, mesial margin slightly convex, joining weakly concave distal margin without an angle. Phallus as long as valva, bent, broadest basally; cornutus cluster combshaped, comprised of a few basally joined long, bent spines, apical one longest, 1.5 times as long as diameter of phallus.
Female. Not studied (characterized by Traugott-Olsen 1990, see the note after the key to females, and the diagnosis above).

description: Vegetation is ubiquitous in almost all environments, ranging from vast outdoor landscapes to indoor spaces. Consequently, models of trees serve as essential assets in applications such as games and movies, mixed reality, architecture and urban planning, agriculture, and forestry, or even the training of autonomous agents. Our research focused on high-quality tree model generation with computer graphics techniques and empowering the modeling process with artificial intelligence. We built a new generative model with deep neural network for tree-situated latent representation which makes predictions for branch growth based on where a branch node is located in the growth space of a tree model. Besides, tree model reconstruction from Lidar and drone scanning point clouds is also an open research topic, and forest reconstruction is more challenging. We developed an info-rich lookup dataset gallery generated from synthetic data and trained a neural network to encode the latent space. We segmented the forest into tree parts and replaced them with tree parts in the lookup dataset by selecting the closest neighbor in the latent domain. Our models can significantly decrease the complexity and time consumption of model generation compared with SOTA procedural modeling and generate high-quality tree models in a variety of species, and the reconstruction pipeline outperforms the SOTA in single tree reconstruction and show robustness in forest reconstruction.
SU(3) Gauge Symmetry: An Experimental Review of Diffractive Physics in e+p, p+p, p+A, and A+A Collision Systems

description: This review focuses on diffractive physics, which involves the long-range interactions of the strong nuclear force at high energies described by SU(3) gauge symmetry. It is expected that diffractive processes account for nearly 40% of the total cross-section at LHC energies. These processes consist of soft-scale physics where perturbation theory cannot be applied. Although highly successful and often described as a perfect theory, quantum chromodynamics relies heavily on perturbation theory, a model best suited for hard-scale physics. The study of pomerons could help bridge the soft and hard processes and provide a complete description of the theory of the strong interaction across the full momentum spectrum. Here, we will discuss some of the features of diffractive physics, experimental results from SPS, HERA, and the LHC, and where the field could potentially lead. With the recent publication of the odderon discovery in 2021 by the D0 and TOTEM collaborations and the new horizon of physics that lies ahead with the upcoming Electron-Ion Collider at Brookhaven National Laboratory, interest is seemingly piquing in high energy diffractive physics.

description: Many studies have examined the connection between the intention to start a business and environmental values. However, there still needs to be more knowledge in the extant literature about how climate change campaigns influence sustainable entrepreneurial intention. This study uses the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) to develop a theoretical framework to explain how climate change campaigns affect the intention to start a sustainable business. This interdisciplinary conceptual research model bridges the gap between climate awareness, sustainable values, and entrepreneurial intentions, offering a robust framework for understanding and fostering sustainable entrepreneurial behaviors. Our study lays the groundwork for future empirical studies and real-world interventions to advance sustainability through entrepreneurship.

Creators: name: Al-Dulayme, Sonia
Year: 2011

description: Al-MaqqarÍ und die Frauen im arabisch-islamischen Andalusien Untersuchungsgegenstand dieser Arbeit ist das Bild der Frau im Werk Nafh at-tib min Gusn al Andalus ar-ratib von dem arabisch-islamischen Historiker al- MaqqarÍ. Meine Schwerpunktsetzung auf al-MaqqarÍ und sein oben genanntes Werk ist damit zu begründen, dass dieser nicht nur ein Historiker und Literat war, sondern zugleich eine geistliche Autorität darstellte. Außerdem ist dem Werk wegen den gesammelten Gedichten, Prosatexten und der zahlreichen andalusischen Quellenangaben ein hoher literarischer Wert beizumessen. Es wird darüber hinaus als eines der wichtigsten Geschichtsbücher über Andalusien betrachtet. In der arabisch-islamischen Geschichtsschreibung gilt Andalusien als Symbol einer vergangenen goldenen Ära. Was für Europa das „dunkle“ Mittelalter war, galt den Arabern als eine der entwicklungsreichsten Epoche – sei es in Wissenschaft oder Kunst. Die Relevanz dieser Forschungsarbeit liegt zum einen an die von mir getätigten Übersetzungen von Teilen dieses Werkes, insbesondere mit einem Fokus auf die Darstellungsweise von Frauen. Dadurch soll der Untersuchungsgegenstand, nämlich die Frau in Andalusien, auch einem deutschsprachigen Publikum vermittelt werden. Zum anderen soll damit indirekt auch ein differenzierteres Bild der Geschlechterverhältnisse im islamisch-arabischen Kontext konstruiert werden. Der erste Schritt besteht in einer Auflistung weiblicher Persönlichkeiten samt ihrer Biografien aus Kapitel 7/ Band 4 von Nafh at-tib min Gusn al Andalus ar-ratib. Das erfolgt im Rahmen von wortwörtlichen Übersetzungen der jeweiligen Textstellen mit Bezug auf weibliche Protagonistinnen. Dies wird anschließend durch weitere weibliche Personen aus anderen Kapiteln des Werkes ergänzt. In weiterer Folge hat eine Klassifizierung der Frauen in Bezug auf ihre soziale Zugehörigkeit und ihren gesellschaftlichen Status (arm-reich, frei- versklavt, etc.) zu erfolgen. Ein Augenmerk wird hierbei auch auf die Problematik der Sklaverei gesetzt und im Kontext von Geschlecht und Sexualität beleuchtet. Darauf anknüpfend folgt eine allgemeine Analyse der verschiedenen 125 Lebensbereiche von Frauen. Das Verhältnis von öffentlicher und privater Sphäre wird hierbei untersucht. Weiteres gilt es die Untersuchungsfelder in die Bereiche der Arbeitswelt, Kunst, Wissenschaft und der Politik zu spezifizieren.

description: The Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) phenomenon provides a unique opportunity to establish a standard ruler at any epoch in the history of the evolving universe. The key lies in identifying a suitable cosmological tracer to conduct the measurement. In this study, we focus on quantifying the sound horizon scale of BAO in the Local Universe. Our chosen cosmological tracer is a sample of blue galaxies from the SDSS survey, positioned at the effective redshift $z_{\eff} = 0.166$. Utilizing Planck-CMB input values for redshift-to-distance conversion, we derive the BAO scale $s_{\scalebox{0.65}{\rm BAO}} = 100.28 ^{+10.79} _{-22.96}$ Mpc$/h$ at the 1$σ$ confidence level. Subsequently, we extrapolate the BAO signal scale in redshift space: $Δz_{\scalebox{0.6}{\rm BAO}}(z_{\rm eff}=0.166)=0.0361^{+0.00262}_ {-0.0055}$. This measurement holds the potential to discriminate among dark energy models within the Local Universe. To validate the robustness of our methodology for BAO scale measurement, we conduct three additional BAO analyses using different cosmographic approaches for distance calculation from redshifts. These tests aim to identify possible biases or systematics in our measurements of $s_{\scalebox{0.65}{\rm BAO}}$. Encouragingly, our diverse cosmographic approaches yield results in statistical agreement with the primary measurement, indicating no significant deviations. Conclusively, our study contributes with a novel determination of the BAO scale in the Local Universe, at $z_{\eff} = 0.166$, achieved through the analysis of the SDSS blue galaxies cosmic tracer.

Elachista bigorrensis Traugott-Olsen, 1990: 56
Material studied. Type material. Holotype ♀: Holo-type [rounded with red margin], Pyrenees Cent.: Pic du Midi de Bigorre 2400 m 3.VIII.1981, S. France: Sattler, Tuck & Robinson B.M.1981–313; Elachista bigorrensis n. sp. det. Traugott-Olsen. B.M. Genitalia slide 24887 (BMNH).
Diagnosis. According to Traugott-Olsen (1990), E. bigorrensis is a medium-sized, silky white species. The female holotype is not shiny (silky), but rather chalky white, reminiscent of pale specimens of E. festucicolella. The male genitalia (not studied) are as in E. festucicolella, but the cornutus group is as follows according to Traugott-Olsen (1990) “one large separate cornutus and a conglomeration of 7–8 smaller cornuti on a common base and a multitude of spines along the conglomeration. This account also agrees with the variation observed in E. festucicolella apart from the multitude of spines. However, figures 57 and 75 of Traugott-Olsen (1990), drawn from the same genitalia slide, do not match each other regarding the cornutus group, and the row of spines is indecipherable in these images. R. Puplesis, having checked the same slide, states as a personal communication in Sruoga (2000) the following: “the first four cornuti are very large, remaining 4–5 ones are in the conglomeration and are evidently smaller, with no mention of spines. Since the shape and size of the cornutus group and its possible accessory spines are apparently unclear to decipher with certainty from the only slide available, the examination of this character is pending further material. The female genitalia are identical to E. festucicolella. A potentially diagnostic character between these taxa is the size of the phallus, which is always shorter than the valva in E. festucicolella, but as long as the valva in the illustration of male E. bigorrensis by Traugott-Olsen (1990).
Molecular characterization. No material was available for genetic study.
Biology. Unknown.
Distribution. France.
Remarks. Parenti (1981) included in the type series of E. klimeschi specimens from French Pyrenees, close to the type locality of E. bigorrensis. The identity of these specimens should be re-assessed.

Proof of concept for small scale flash flood early warning system

description: Intense short‑duration rainfall can generate flash floods that overwhelm small catchments long before conventional forecasts or hydraulic infrastructure can react. This study investigates the technical, organisational and social feasibility of a municipal early‑warning system for such events. Results show that recent advances in machine‑to‑machine communication, the Internet of Things (IoT) and cloud processing satisfy the stringent latency, reliability and cost constraints of local authorities.

Low‑power sensors equipped with the MQTT publish‑subscribe protocol stream hydrometeorological data to scalable brokers, enabling dense, fault‑tolerant measurement networks without central bottlenecks. These data feeds can drive automated threshold detection, now‑casting products and web map services in near real time, supporting both professional responders and public information portals.

Equally important is the distribution of alerts. Broadcasting technologies such as the federal Modular Warning System (MoWaS) and GSM cell broadcasting transmit a single message simultaneously to every device in a target area, remaining robust under network congestion and removing the need for one‑to‑one SMS connections. Integration of local IoT triggers with MoWaS through the Common Alert Protocol allows municipalities to issue geo‑referenced, multi‑channel warnings that can be relayed by sirens, radio stations and smartphone apps within seconds.

The case study demonstrates that coupling IoT‑based sensing with broadcast‑grade alerting forms a modular, standards‑compliant architecture that can be extended across neighbouring communities at marginal cost. The proposed framework provides a practical pathway for German municipalities to enhance flash‑flood preparedness while leveraging existing federal infrastructure and emerging smart‑city technologies.

description: The article analyses three recurring concepts in the Bhagavadgītā As It Is written by Bhaktivedānta Svāmī Prabhupāda (the founder of the Hare Kṛṣṇa movement): the demoniac nature, the sexuality, and the woman. The research investigates the use and meaning of these three concepts and how they are linked to each other by a basic doctrine of aversion of materiality. The doctrine of Svāmī Prabhupāda will be defined a “Traditional Worldly Asceticism” as a result of a comparison between the Hare Kṛṣṇa movement and the works and ideas of western scholars such as Wilhelm Halbfass and Max Weber.

description: This study investigates the impact of Hofstede's cultural dimensions on abnormal core earnings management in multiple national cultural contexts. We employ an Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression model with abnormal core earnings as the dependent variable. The independent variables analyzed include Hofstede's dimensions: Power Distance Index (PDI), Individualism (IDV), Masculinity (MAS), and Uncertainty Avoidance Index (UAI). Our findings reveal that individualism is positively associated with abnormal core earnings, suggesting that cultures characterized by high individualism may encourage practices that inflate earnings due to the prominence of personal achievement and rewards. In contrast, masculinity negatively correlates with abnormal core earnings, indicating that the risk-taking attributes associated with masculine cultures may deter earnings management. Interestingly, uncertainty avoidance is positively linked to abnormal core earnings, supporting the notion that managers tend to engage more in earnings management to minimize fluctuations in financial reports in cultures with high uncertainty avoidance. The relationship between power distance and abnormal core earnings is found to be non-significant, indicating no substantial effect in this context. These findings contribute to the literature on cultural influences in financial reporting, providing valuable insights for policymakers and multinational firms concerning the cultural contexts within which financial decisions and reporting occur.

description: The PREPSOIL Preparing for the "Soil Deal for Europe Mission project facilitates the deployment of the Mission across European regions. This will be achieved through the co-creation and roll out of tools and spaces for interaction, knowledge-sharing and co-learning, as well as stocktaking and dialogue to understand how regional assessment of soil needs, supported by harmonized monitoring mechanisms, can then lead to action in living labs and lighthouses for soil health.

One of the major Soil Mission components is development of a robust, harmonized soil monitoring framework, enabling assessment of policy effects and building information on soil health status trends. In order to develop such a monitoring framework, it is necessary to integrate current knowledge on existing monitoring programs and look for harmonization and improvement of the approaches applied across Europe. One of current gaps in soil monitoring is insufficient coverage of soils located in urban, forest or industrial areas.The overall objective of PREPSOIL task 5.1 is to contribute to consolidation of the Mission’s soil monitoring framework by assessing how to extend the current and upcoming results from other projects dedicated to agricultural soils and existing soil monitoring initiatives to natural, forest, urban and industrial soils.The task methodology leading to collection of information on agricultural and non-agricultural soil monitoring involved two main phases: phase 1 - a review of selected (completed, ongoing, newly started) projects, supported by the European Commission, dedicated or linked to soil monitoring issues; phase 2 - an inventory of national experiences (national systems, initiatives) on soil monitoring with a special focus on non-agricultural areas. The results of these two phases constitute the basis for a broader discussion on future monitoring of non-agricultural soils. Such a discussion will be carried out in the third phase of the Task 5.1 activity.
Challenges facing teachers in Tanzania: the implementation of the paradigm shift towards a competence-based curriculum in ordinary level secondary schools in Iringa municipality

Subjects: education system; content-based curriculum; competence-based curriculum; Iringa

description: This study assesses the challenges facing teachers in the implementation of the paradigm shift towards a competence-based curriculum in public secondary schools in Iringa municipality. The study was guided by three research objectives, namely: to investigate the teachers’ understanding about the paradigm shift towards a competence-based curriculum in secondary schools; to find out the importance of the competence-based curriculum in the students’ academic performance; and to examine the challenges facing teachers in the implementation of a competence-based curriculum in public secondary schools. The study adopted case study design, whereby three public secondary schools were selected.  The study involved 39 respondents, namely 24 students, 3 school heads, and 12 teachers. The study employed mainly qualitative research approach. Data was collected through interviews and focus group discussions and was analyzed through content analysis in the light of the research objectives. The findings have revealed that teachers were aware of the paradigm shift towards a competence-based curriculum; however, most of them seem not to implement it due to various factors, including: lack of teaching and learning materials, and poor or low level of language proficiency on the part of some teachers and most students. It was also found out that most teachers were not provided with in-service training as a strategy to improve their teaching-learning situation; as a result, old approaches or traditional-learning-methods were still used by most teachers. The study recommends that regular in-service training for teachers be conducted and adequate teaching and learning materials be provided, so as to enable the implementation of the competence-based curriculum.

description: The coronavirus pandemic instituted a new normal into that world. This shock to the system changed the way people interact with museums and galleries. This thesis will focus how the pandemic changed the relationship between museums, galleries, and technology. This topic holds weight because museums and galleries have historically been slow to accept any kind of technological advancement. After the author reviewed the available literature, they conducted a set of interviews and current research on how museums handled the virtual transition due to the coronavirus. The study resulted in the findings that some museums struggled with the transition while others did not. Furthermore, it showed that most museums and galleries embraced some sort of digital content or virtual presence. The author concludes that due to coronavirus museums and galleries have become more accepting and understanding of how technology can be a great asset to their organization. The author then gives recommendations for further research related to this important topic.

Subjects: Naǧīb Maḥfūẓ; Ḥikāyāt ḥāratinā; traduzione

description: The article analyzes the Italian translation of Ḥikāyāt ḥāratinā (published in Italian as “Il nostro quartiere” by Feltrinelli, in Milan in 1989) by Naguib Mahfouz (: Naǧīb Maḥfūẓ), and focuses on the strategies used by the translator, Dr.Valentina Colombo, to overcome the problems posed by this challenging text, full as it is of references to the Egyptian culture. Thanks to his extraordinary ability, Mahfouz manages to make the reader really enter within his novels. In fact, his poetic choice of narration does not follow a well-defined plot but swings, mostly in the dialogues, between the classic Arabic and the peculiar idiomatic expressions and syntactic methods of Cairo vernacular, translated in classic Arabic, which allows the reader to transport the narration in his own dialect. The articles details the translator’s strategies in coping with linguistic and extra-linguistic features of the text, various metaphors, proverbs, idiomatic expressions, and points out some imperfections in the translation, as well as some meanings that have been lost due to an imperfect knowledge of a culture alien to the translator. The Italian translation is then compared to English and French translations, previously published of the same work; in many passages the Italian version seems closer to the French text than to the English one.

Role of magnetic arcades in explaining the puzzle of the gamma-ray emission from the solar disk

description: The interpretation of gamma-ray emission originating from the solar disk ($0.5^\circ$ in angular size) as due to the interaction of Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCRs) with the solar atmosphere has remained a central challenge in solar physics. After the seminal work by Seckel, Stanev, and Gaisser (SSG91) based on GCRs magnetic mirroring, discrepancies between models and observations persist, indicating the need for a novel approach. The present work focuses on exploring the impact of a closed magnetic field geometry in the low photosphere on the observed gamma-ray flux. We track numerically with the PLUTO code the trajectories of test-particle protons within a static $\sim 20$ Mm scale height magnetic arcade adjacent to jets. By making use of numerical vertical density profiles we inject particles at distinct chromospheric/photospheric altitudes, mimicking the migration of GCRs from neighboring flux tubes into closed arcades. Remarkably, our model reproduces a flat gamma-ray spectrum below $\sim 33$ GeV, a nearly-isotropic emission at $\sim 10$ GeV, both consistent with Fermi-LAT observations, and a near-limb emission at $\sim 1$ TeV. Our model can also reproduce the flux-drop detected by HAWC ($\sim 1$ TeV). Finally, we argue that the spectral dip observed at $\sim$ 40 GeV may result from the flux suppression at low energy due to the cross-field diffusion, which would produce a cutoff. These findings underscore the pivotal role of closed magnetic field structures in shaping the solar disk gamma-ray emission.
