description: Cette recherche a été produit dans l’intention de mieux comprendre la dynamique du maintien des relations familiales, entre les pères contrevenants et leurs familles, particulièrement avec leurs enfants. Spécifiquement, la recherche tente à répondre aux questions suivantes : 1) Le système carcéral contribue-t-il au maintien des relations familiales ? 2) Est-ce que les plans d’intervention visant la réussite de la réinsertion sociale des contrevenants et mis en place par le système carcéral favorisent le maintien des relations familiales ? 3) Quel est le rôle du travail social dans le maintien des relations familiales des pères contrevenants ? L’analyse a porté sur 21 documents scientifiques revus par les pairs. Les résultats permettent d’identifier les rôles des différents acteurs importants dans l’environnement d’un père contrevenant dans le maintien de ses relations avec sa famille et ses enfants. De plus, les résultats permettent d’identifier la place du travail social comme profession et discipline scientifique dans le contexte de la réinsertion sociale des pères contrevenants. La recherche permet d’identifier des pistes pour le travail social dans le maintien des relations familiales.

description: We review application of point-contact Andreev-reflection spectroscopy to study elemental superconductors, where theoretical conditions for the smallness of the point-contact size with respect to the characteristic lengths in the superconductor can be satisfied. We discuss existing theoretical models and identify new issues that have to be solved, especially when applying this method to investigate more complex superconductors. We will also demonstrate that some aspects of point-contact Andreev-reflection spectroscopy still need to be addressed even when investigating ordinary metals.

Réfléter la diversité dans la fonction publique : regards croisés en France, au Canada et en Belgique

description: La bureaucratie représentative, comme sous-champ de recherche en administration publique, a fait l’objet de nombreuses études depuis la publication de l’ouvrage canonique de Donald J. Kingsley Representative Bureaucracy en 1944. Celles-ci ont toutefois globalement contribué à maintenir la focale sur un idéal pour le moins univoque de la représentation passive des agents publics qui viserait à garantir leur ressemblance sociologique avec l’ensemble des groupes sociaux et des publics administrés. Pourtant, la représentativité est en soi un concept polymorphe, construit tout autant socialement que politiquement et pouvant faire l’objet d’interprétations autant complémentaires que contradictoires. Notre étude propose donc de saisir le concept de bureaucratie représentative dans une dynamique pluraliste. Nous partons du principe qu’il ne peut exister de définition ou de construction unanime de la représentation bureaucratique et que celle-ci doit s'appréhender en fonction des publics cibles façonnés par les gouvernements. Nous avons pour cela entrepris une comparaison de la construction de la représentation bureaucratique en France, au Canada et en Belgique. Après avoir analysé certains traits de la communauté politique dans les trois pays, nous avons identifié et noté la cohérence des publics cibles avec ceux-ci en pointant une différence d’appréciation quant à la représentation ethnoculturelle.

description: Particle acceleration in space and astrophysical reconnection sites is an important unsolved problem in studies of magnetic reconnection. Earlier kinetic simulations have identified several acceleration mechanisms that are associated with particle drift motions. Here, we show that, for sufficient large systems, the energization processes due to particle drift motions can be described as fluid compression and shear, and that the shear energization is proportional to the pressure anisotropy of energetic particles. By analyzing results from fully kinetic simulations, we show that the compression energization dominates the acceleration of high-energy particles in reconnection with a weak guide field, and the compression and shear effects are comparable when the guide field is 50\% of the reconnecting component. Spatial distributions of those energization effects reveal that reconnection exhausts, contracting islands, and island merging regions are the three most important regions for compression and shear acceleration. This study connects particle energization by particle guiding-center drift motions with that due to background fluid motions, as in the energetic particle transport theory. It provides foundations for building particle transport models for large-scale reconnection acceleration such as those in solar flares.

description: En Colombia la salud es reconocida como un derecho fundamental. Desde este punto de partida, tenemos que la donación y los trasplantes de órganos, se constituyen en un factor preponderante para mitigar de alguna manera la necesidad funcional de quienes padecen alguna precariedad en su salud permitiéndonos entonces, cumplir ese cometido constitucional y legal de satisfacer el acatamiento de dicho derecho fundamental. Así las cosas, debemos contar con la robustez suficiente tanto en la concientización del donante como en la infraestructura de nuestro sistema de salud para el recaudo de los órganos, el mantenimiento y conservación, al igual que en la asistencia médica que garantice de buena manera que estas prácticas médicas sean exitosas. Ahora bien, no se puede dejar de lado un aspecto muy importante como lo es la existencia de una normatividad acorde con estas necesidades; y es precisamente por ello que en este trabajo hemos concatenado estos aspectos que nos permita alcanzar así, un desarrollo legítimo en las políticas públicas del tema aquí tratado. Tenemos un reto muy grande y es el relacionado con el control al comercio inescrupuloso de órganos el cual debemos controlar y para ello tenemos que aprovechar experiencias ajenas como la de España.
description: Health in Colombia is known as a fundamental right. Taking this into account , we can mention that organ donation and transplants constitute a preponderant factor to mitigate the functional need of those who suffer from some precarious illness; in this way, fulfilling the constitutional and legal duty of satisfying the compliance of said fundamental right. Though, it is not only necessary but pertinent to reinforce awareness, both in the donor and in our health system, in relation to organ collection, maintenance and preservation, as well as an optimal medical assistance that guarantees the success of these medical practices. It must be noted, however, that of all, an important aspect that cannot be left aside is the existence of regulations in support of the mentioned needs. For this reason, in the present work these aspects have been consolidated in the pursuit of achieving a legitimate development in the public policies that enclose the topic in question. It is not to be ignored the big challenge this implies, most precisely the one related to the control of illegal yet unscrupulous organs trading, which must be controlled; for this we must take advantage of foreign experiences such as the Spain one.

description: Given a coin with unknown bias $p\in [0,1]$, can we exactly simulate another coin with bias $f(p)$? The exact set of simulable functions has been well characterized 20 years ago. In this paper, we ask the quantum counterpart of this question: Given the quantum coin $|p\rangle=\sqrt{p}|0\rangle+\sqrt{1-p}|1\rangle$, can we exactly simulate another quantum coin $|f(p)\rangle=\sqrt{f(p)}|0\rangle+\sqrt{1-f(p)}|1\rangle$? We give the full characterization of simulable quantum state $k_0(p)|0\rangle+k_1(p)|1\rangle$ from quantum coin $|p\rangle=\sqrt{p}|0\rangle+\sqrt{1-p}|1\rangle$, and present an algorithm to transform it. Surprisingly, we show that simulable sets in the quantum-to-quantum case and classical-to-classical case have no inclusion relationship with each other.

description: The recently published no-hair theorems of Hod, Bhattacharjee, and Sarkar have revealed the intriguing fact that horizonless compact reflecting stars {\it cannot} support spatially regular configurations made of scalar, vector and tensor fields. In the present paper we explicitly prove that the interesting no-hair behavior observed in these studies is not a generic feature of compact reflecting stars. In particular, we shall prove that charged reflecting stars {\it can} support {\it charged} massive scalar field configurations in their exterior spacetime regions. To this end, we solve analytically the characteristic Klein-Gordon wave equation for a linearized charged scalar field of mass $μ$, charge coupling constant $q$, and spherical harmonic index $l$ in the background of a spherically symmetric compact reflecting star of mass $M$, electric charge $Q$, and radius $R_{\text{s}}\gg M,Q$. Interestingly, it is proved that the discrete set $\{R_{\text{s}}(M,Q,μ,q,l;n)\}^{n=\infty}_{n=1}$ of star radii that can support the charged massive scalar field configurations is determined by the characteristic zeroes of the confluent hypergeometric function. Following this simple observation, we derive a remarkably compact analytical formula for the discrete spectrum of star radii in the intermediate regime $M\ll R_{\text{s}}\ll 1/μ$. The analytically derived resonance spectrum is confirmed by direct numerical computations.

description: Quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) insulator is the key material to study emergent topological quantum effects, but its ultralow working temperature limits experiments. Here, by first-principles calculations, we find a family of stable two-dimensional (2D) structures generated by lithium decoration of layered iron-based superconductor materials FeX (X = S, Se, Te), and predict room-temperature ferromagnetic semiconductors together with large-gap high-Chern-number QAH insulators in the 2D materials. The extremely robust ferromagnetic order is induced by the electron injection from Li to Fe and stabilized by strong ferromagnetic kinetic exchange in the 2D Fe layer. While in the absence of spin-orbit coupling (SOC), the ferromagnetism polarizes the system into a half Dirac semimetal state protected by mirror symmetry, the SOC effect results in a spontaneous breaking of mirror symmetry and introduces a Dirac mass term, which creates QAH states with sizable gaps (several tens of meV) and multiple chiral edge modes. We also find a 3D QAH insulator phase featured by macroscopic number of chiral conduction channels in bulk LiOH-LiFeX. The findings open new opportunities to realize novel QAH physics and applications at high temperatures.

description: Experiments in recent years have vividly demonstrated that gene expression can be highly stochastic. How protein concentration fluctuations affect the growth rate of a population of cells, is, however, a wide open question. We present a mathematical model that makes it possible to quantify the effect of protein concentration fluctuations on the growth rate of a population of genetically identical cells. The model predicts that the population's growth rate depends on how the growth rate of a single cell varies with protein concentration, the variance of the protein concentration fluctuations, and the correlation time of these fluctuations. The model also predicts that when the average concentration of a protein is close to the value that maximizes the growth rate, fluctuations in its concentration always reduce the growth rate. However, when the average protein concentration deviates sufficiently from the optimal level, fluctuations can enhance the growth rate of the population, even when the growth rate of a cell depends linearly on the protein concentration. The model also shows that the ensemble or population average of a quantity, such as the average protein expression level or its variance, is in general not equal to its time average as obtained from tracing a single cell and its descendants. We apply our model to perform a cost-benefit analysis of gene regulatory control. Our analysis predicts that the optimal expression level of a gene regulatory protein is determined by the trade-off between the cost of synthesizing the regulatory protein and the benefit of minimizing the fluctuations in the expression of its target gene. We discuss possible experiments that could test our predictions.

Gauge invariant canonical cosmological perturbation theory with geometrical clocks in extended phase space - a review and applications

Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: The theory of cosmological perturbations is a well elaborated field. To deal with the diffeomorphism invariance of general relativity one generally introduces combinations of the metric and matter perturbations which are gauge invariant up to the considered order in the perturbations. For linear cosmological perturbations one works with the so-called Bardeen potentials widely used in this context. However, there exists no common procedure to construct gauge invariant quantities also for higher order perturbations. Usually, one has to find new gauge invariant quantities independently for each order in perturbation theory. With the relational formalism introduced by Rovelli and further developed by Dittrich and Thiemann, it is in principle possible to calculate manifestly gauge invariant quantities, that is quantities that are gauge invariant up to arbitrary order once one has chosen a set of so-called reference fields, often also called clock fields. This article contains a review of the relational formalism and its application to canonical general relativity following the work of Garcia, Pons, Sundermeyer and Salisbury. As the starting point for our application of this formalism to cosmological perturbation theory, we also review the Hamiltonian formulation of the linearized theory for perturbations around FLRW spacetimes. The main aim of our work will be to identify clock fields in the context of the relational formalism that can be used to reconstruct quantities like the Bardeen potential as well as the Mukhanov-Sasaki variable. This requires a careful analysis of the canonical formulation in the extended ADM-phase space where lapse and shift are treated as dynamical variables. The actual construction of such observables and further investigations thereof will be carried out in our companion paper.

description: Considering two molecular state assumptions, i.e. S-wave $\barΛ-K^-$ and S-wave $\barΣ^0-K^-$ molecular states, we study the possible decays of $\bar N_X(1625)$ that include $\bar N_X(1625)\to K^{-}\barΛ, π^{0}\bar{p}, η\bar{p}, π^{-}\bar{n}$. Our results indicate: (1) if $\bar N_{X}(1625)$ is $\barΛ-K^-$ molecular state, $K^{-}\barΛ$ is the main decay modes of $\bar N_{X}(1625)$, and the branching ratios of the rest decay modes are tiny; (2) if $\bar N_{X}(1625)$ is $\barΣ^0-K^-$ molecular state, the branching ratio of $\bar N_{X}(1625)\to K^{-}\barΛ$ is one or two order smaller than that of $\bar N_{X}(1625)\to π^{0}\bar{p}, η\bar{p}, π^{-}\bar{n}$. Thus the search for $\bar N_X(1625)\to π^{0}\bar{p}, η\bar{p}, π^{-}\bar{n}$ will be helpful to shed light on the nature of $\bar N_X(1625)$.

A Note on the Uniform Kan Condition in Nominal Cubical Sets

description: Bezem, Coquand, and Huber have recently given a constructively valid model of higher type theory in a category of nominal cubical sets satisfying a novel condition, called the uniform Kan condition (UKC), which generalizes the standard cubical Kan condition (as considered by, for example, Williamson in his survey of combinatorial homotopy theory) to admit phantom “additional” dimensions in open boxes. This note, which represents the authors’ attempts to fill in the details of the UKC, is intended for newcomers to the field who may appreciate a more explicit formulation and development of the main ideas. The crux of the exposition is an analogue of the Yoneda Lemma for co-sieves that relates geometric open boxes bijectively to their algebraic counterparts, much as its progenitor for representables relates geometric cubes to their algebraic counterparts in a cubical set. This characterization is used to give a formulation of uniform Kan fibrations in which uniformity emerges as naturality in the additional dimensions.

description: Notre thèse porte sur les représentations des minorités visibles francophones dans les médias et à la télévision spécifiquement. C'est une étude comparative entre les bulletins de nouvelles régionaux de 18h de TVA et de Radio-Canada. La théorie de la responsabilité sociale confère entre autres aux médias de refléter la diversité dans les contenus. Quel est l'état des lieux de la représentation des minorités visibles francophones dans les bulletins de nouvelles de 18h de Radio-Canada et TVA à Ottawa-Gatineau ? Notre recherche tente d'y répondre à travers une méthodologie mixte. Les journalistes des minorités visibles chez le diffuseur public sont surreprésentés pendant que à TVA ils sont sous-représentés. Les minorités à titre d'intervenant dans les deux bulletins de nouvelles sont également sous-représentées. Tous les résultats sont déterminés en fonction du poids démographique des minorités dans la région. Notre recherche suggère que la représentation des minorités visibles a été positive dans les deux émissions, contrairement à plusieurs travaux précédents. Par ailleurs, nous avons précisé le contexte dans lequel survient notre étude dans l'introduction. Celle-ci comprend aussi nos trois questions de recherches. La revue de littérature compte, entre autres, des travaux sur les minorités aux États-Unis, en France et au Canada ainsi que des recherches portant sur les critiques de la théorie de la responsabilité sociale. Nous avons inclus plusieurs sondages et travaux récents sur les nouveaux médias et les journalistes notamment. La méthodologie comporte une partie qualitative qui se résume en une analyse de contenu des reportages qui ont donné la parole aux minorités visibles. En outre, le volet quantitatif a été renforcé par des tests t pour les catégories des gens des minorités. Nous avons simplifié la présentation des tableaux pour une meilleure compréhension et discriminé les catégories (journalistes et intervenants). En outre, les résultats ont été analysés à la lumière de la théorie de la responsabilité sociale, notre cadre théorique.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

A Narrative Inquiry into International Students' Lived Journeys of Counselling in Canada

description: Most Canadian universities have recruitment policies and strategies for internationalizing their student population. International students represented more than 17% of the total student population in the 2020/2021 academic year. Despite their representation, not much is known about their experience with counselling/psychotherapy in the Canadian context. Previous research tends to problematize the population and rarely considers international students' voice. This qualitative study forefronts the lived experience of three international students' counselling journey while pursuing studies within higher education systems in Canada. The questions guiding the research were: What are the narratives of international students who have experienced a counselling journey in Canada? What are sojourners' constructed narratives of counselling in Canada? How do these narratives inform and/or resist larger societal discourses about international students and their mental health seeking? What can we learn from these narratives when creating support systems for international students? The method of narrative inquiry, as inspired by Polkinghorne (1995), was used to gather the sojourners' experiences in an interview of approximately 60 minutes. The transcribed interviews were transformed into a unique final storied narrative for each sojourner relating to their pre-, during-, and post-counselling experience in Canada. The researcher - who himself was an international student in Canada - hopes that this study unveils more hopeful narratives than the current "problem-laden" narrative with regards to providing counselling services to sojourners. The final narratives, and recommendations generated from them, may aid a variety of stakeholders within Canadian higher education institutions to better understand and respond to the unique mental health seeking journeys of international students.

description: Deep CNN-based object detection systems have achieved remarkable success on several large-scale object detection benchmarks. However, training such detectors requires a large number of labeled bounding boxes, which are more difficult to obtain than image-level annotations. Previous work addresses this issue by transforming image-level classifiers into object detectors. This is done by modeling the differences between the two on categories with both image-level and bounding box annotations, and transferring this information to convert classifiers to detectors for categories without bounding box annotations. We improve this previous work by incorporating knowledge about object similarities from visual and semantic domains during the transfer process. The intuition behind our proposed method is that visually and semantically similar categories should exhibit more common transferable properties than dissimilar categories, e.g. a better detector would result by transforming the differences between a dog classifier and a dog detector onto the cat class, than would by transforming from the violin class. Experimental results on the challenging ILSVRC2013 detection dataset demonstrate that each of our proposed object similarity based knowledge transfer methods outperforms the baseline methods. We found strong evidence that visual similarity and semantic relatedness are complementary for the task, and when combined notably improve detection, achieving state-of-the-art detection performance in a semi-supervised setting.

description: Abstract: "Many set functions F in combinatorial optimization satisfy the diminishing returns property F(A [union of] X) - F(A) [> or =] F(A' [union of] X) - F(A') for A [element of] A'. Such functions are called submodular. A result from Nemhauser et.al. states that the problem of selecting k-element subsets maximizing a nondecreasing submodular function can be approximated with a constant factor (1 - 1/e) performance guarantee. Khuller et.al. showed that for the special submodular function involved in the MAX-COVER problem, this approximation result generalizes to a budgeted setting under linear nonnegative cost-functions. In this note, we extend this result to general submodular functions. Motivated by the problem of maximizing entropy in discrete graphical models, where the submodular objective cannot be evaluated exactly, we generalize our result to account for absolute errors."

description: Many composite Higgs models predict the existence of vector-like quarks with masses outside the reach of the LHC, e.g. $m_Q \gtrsim 2$ TeV, in particular if these models contain a dark matter candidate. In such models the mass of the new resonances is bounded from above to satisfy the constraint from the observed relic density. We therefore develop new strategies to search for vector-like quarks at a future $100$ TeV collider and evaluate what masses and interactions can be probed. We find that masses as large as $\sim 6.4$ ($\sim 9$) TeV can be tested if the fermionic resonances decay into Standard Model (dark matter) particles. We also discuss the complementarity of dark matter searches, showing that most of the parameter space can be closed. On balance, this study motivates further the consideration of a higher-energy hadron collider for a next generation of facilities.

Ceramides as Therapeutic Targets in Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia

description: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a chronic lung disorder associated with extremely premature birth, resulting from arrested development of the microvasculature and consequently disrupted alveologenesis. Premature infants are dependent on respiratory support, including oxygen supplementation and mechanical ventilation (MV), that are considered the main modifiable contributors to BPD. The mechanistic link between the injurious stimulus (e.g., hyperoxia) and disrupted lung development has been less clear. Recent works suggest the up regulation of ceramides in the injured lung as a potentially key factor. Ceramides regulate tissue growth pathways, by increasing autophagy and apoptosis. Ceramides are increased in tracheal aspirates of preterm infants receiving MV. Moreover, attenuation of ceramide synthesis by Sphingomyelin Phosphodiesterase 1 (SMPD1) inhibition prevented MV induced cell death in experimental animals. Whether ceramides may play a role in hyperoxia-induced lung injury remains less studied. To examine this issue, I employed an experimental rat model of BPD caused by exposure to hyperoxia for 14 days (85% O₂ postnatal days [PND] 1-7 and 60% O₂ PND 7-14) followed by intermittent hypoxia from PND 14-21 (termed the HIH BPD-like lung injury model). Lung injury in this model was characterized by hypoplastic pulmonary vasculature, pulmonary hypertension, and "emphysematous" lung structure due to inhibited alveologenesis. My findings demonstrated that exposure to severe hyperoxia (PND 1-7) lead to a rapid increase in the lung of pro-apoptotic ceramides, commencing on PND 1 and persisting to PND 7. Lung autophagy markers were up-regulated concurrent with increased ceramides, which was followed by increased apoptosis on PND 7, predominantly in distal lung epithelial cells. Treatment of HIH-exposed rat pups with daily S.C Desipramine 10 mg/kg/d (an SMPD1 inhibitor) prevented up-regulated lung ceramide content, autophagy, and apoptosis. Desipramine also prevented HIH-induced lung inflammation, vascular hypoplasia and pulmonary hypertension and partially improved markers of distal alveolar development. I also examined contents of four key ceramide pathway proteins in human autopsy-derived lung sections from infants with and without BPD, which revealed a significant increase in ceramide pathway proteins in BPD lungs when compared to controls. Coupled with earlier work, my findings support a key role for up-regulated ceramides in both human and experimental chronic neonatal lung injury. Inhibition of injurious ceramide production with Desipramine represents a promising strategy for the prevention of BPD.

description: This dissertation contributes to the cross-disciplinary international entrepreneurship/international marketing literature by unpacking how entrepreneurial marketing activities can enable owner-managers to overcome internationalisation challenges alongside stimulating further investigations of entrepreneurial marketing topics. The three papers contained in this dissertation collectively contribute to answering an overarching research question: How can owner-managers of under-resourced, smaller-sized, marginal exporters utilise facets of entrepreneurial marketing activities to expand sales abroad in a post-COVID environment? The first paper of this dissertation (presented in Chapter 2) focused on the performance outcomes of entrepreneurial marketing activities of smaller firms actively moving to export markets in a post-COVID environment. With the competitive intensity of export markets presenting a challenging environmental contingency, this paper considered the effects of the degree of competitive intensity on entrepreneurial marketing activities, not least coopetition behaviour. To further unpack the studied effects of the competitive environment on entrepreneurial marketing activities, the second paper (presented in Chapter 3) unpacked the relationship between entrepreneurial marketing activities and coopetition activities in the previously mentioned post-crisis environment. Specifically, this second paper expanded on the first paper by unpacking the specific role of coopetition in internationalising firms manoeuvring varying competitive intensities across domestic and export markets in a post-COVID environment. The third paper (presented in Chapter 4) explored the outcomes of the first and second papers by investigating the relationship between competitive intensity and coopetition behaviour. Chapter 4 unpacked the complex relationship between competitive intensity and coopetition behaviours, along with effects on a coopetition-oriented mindset preceding coopetition behaviour.

description: Aim. To study the dynamics of auto-oscillations arising at the level of enzyme-substrate interaction in a cell and to find the conditions for the self-organization and the formation of chaos in the metabolic process. Methods. A mathematical model of the metabolic process of steroids transformation in Arthrobacter globiformis. The mathematical apparatus of nonlinear dynamics. Results. The bifurcations resulting in the appearance of strange attractors in the metabolic process are determined. The projections of the phase portraits of attractors are constructed for some chosen modes. The total spectra of Lyapunov's indices are calculated. The structural stability of the attractors obtained is studied. By the general scenario of formation of regular and strange attractors, the structural-functional connections in the metabolic process in the cell are found. Their physical nature is investigated. Conclusions. The presented model explains the mechanism of formation of auto-oscillations observed in the A. globiformis cells and demonstrates a possibility of the mathematical modeling of metabolic processes for the physical explanation of the self-organization of a cell and its vital activity.
