description: La viabilità della Sicilia romana non può essere adeguatamente compresa se si prescinde dalle peculiari condizioni storiche ed economiche che l'isola conobbe nel periodo repubblicano e imperiale, e fino all' epoca tardo-antica: assorbita prestissimo nell'orbita di Roma, la Sicilia svolse per l'Urbe una funzione essenzialmente ancillare, collocata com'era al centro di un Mediterraneo precocemente pacificato; di fatto fu il granaio della Repubblica, e, se nei primi secoli dell'Impero tale ruolo venne ad esserle insidiato dalle nuove fertilissime regioni orientali conquistate dai Romani sullo scorcio del I secolo a.C. - l'Egitto in primo luogo - in epoca tardo-antica essa venne a recuperare tutta la sua rilevanza economica, sia in quanto produttrice di cereali, sia come tappa della via annonaria per l'Africa, sia pure come eccezionale riserva di materie prime, della cui esistenza si venne a conoscenza, con ogni probabilità, solo in epoca imperiale

MATERIAL EXAMINED.— SWT: ASIZP 65531 (1, 73.0 mm HL, 222 mm TL), CD 138, 441 m.
Distinguishing feature.— 1D II 9; P i18–i19; GR-I (inner) 2+6, GR-II (outer/inner) 0+6 / 1+7; scales below midbase 1D 4.5, below 2D 6.5, lateral-line scales over distance equal to pre-D length 47. Snout sharply pointed, slender and spear-shaped in dorsal view, length 51% HL; anterolateral margin of snout completely supported by bone; orbit 23% HL, 2.2 in snout length, upper jaw 23% HL; nasal fossa densely scaled anteriorly and ventrally; underside of head almost fully scaled (scales with 1–3 short rows of spinules). Light organ group II of Iwamoto (1990), fossa narrow and short, not extending to pelvic-fin bases. Anus separated from A origin by 2 or 3 scale rows. Spinules on body scales blade-like in 3–6 sharp, divergent, ridgelike rows, closely overlapping, with height increasing abruptly with posteriormost spinule much larger than anterior ones. Ground color brownish (somewhat faded), bluish over abdomen but not on chest; mouth and gill cavity dark; most fins dark dusky to blackish. Attains more than 44 mm TL.
DISTRIBUTION.— Broadly distributed from Philippines to e. and w. coasts of Australia, in 485–1107 m. In Taiwan, the single specimen was collected in 441 m.
REMARKS.— This single juvenile was captured in the same haul as two specimens (ASIZP 65523, 250– 265 mm TL) that we identified as C. smithi. It differed from those specimens in having a more slender and longer snout (orbit 2.2 into snout, cf. 1.3– 2.1 in C. smithi), slightly narrower internasal and interorbital widths (16% HL and 18% HL, respectively, cf. 17–19% and 19–23% in C. smithi) and the nasal fossa was almost fully covered with small scales antero-ventrally (naked to sparsely covered in C. smithi). The differences are so slight that we are uncertain whether they simply represent individual variation; thus, our identification must be considered as tentative. The presence of this species in Taiwan waters should not be surprising, however, as it was originally described from captures in the Philippines in the Verde Island Passage off sw. Luzon. If confirmed, this specimen represents the first record of the species from Taiwan.

Desingularization of G_2 manifolds with isolated conical singularities

description: We present a method to desingularize a compact G_2 manifold with isolated conical singularities by cutting out a neighbourhood of each singular point and glueing in an asymptotically conical G_2 manifold. Controlling the error on the overlap glueing region enables us to use a result of Joyce to conclude that the resulting compact smooth 7-manifold admits a torsion-free G_2 structure, with full G_2 holonomy. There are topological obstructions for this procedure to work, which arise from the degree 3 and degree 4 cohomology of the asymptotically conical G_2 manifolds which are glued in at each conical singularity. When a certain necessary topological condition on the manifold with isolated conical singularities is satisfied, we can introduce correction terms to the glueing procedure to ensure that it still works. In the case of degree 4 obstructions, these correction terms are trivial to construct, but in the case of degree 3 obstructions we need to solve an elliptic equation on a non-compact manifold. For this we use the Lockhart-McOwen theory of weighted Sobolev spaces on manifolds with ends. This theory is also used to obtain a good asymptotic expansion of the G_2 structure on an asymptotically conical G_2 manifold under an appropriate gauge-fixing condition, which is required to make the glueing procedure work.

description: Despite considerable advances in gender equality in recent decades, gender discrimination remains pervasive in many dimensions of life world-wide. Tue nature and extent of the discrimination vary considerably across countries and regions. But the pattems are striking. In no region of the developing world are women equal to men in legal, social, and economie rights. Gender gaps are widespread in access to and control of resources, in economie opportunities, in power, and politica! voiee. Furthermore in a congrous number of countries, increasing trends have been recently recorded in female discrimination (Social Watch, 2003). Tue evidence presented shows that societies that discriminate by gender pay a high price in terms of their ability to develop and to reduce poverty. The gender gap in education is a case in point because investment in women 's education is an efficient economie choiee. lt has been estimated that a 1 per cent increase in f emale secondary schooling results in a 0.3 per cent increase in economie growth (UN, 2000a).

Efficient Exact Enumeration of Single-Source Geodesics on a Non-Convex Polyhedron

Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: Computational Geometry (cs.CG)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: In this paper, we consider enumeration of geodesics on a polyhedron, where a geodesic means locally-shortest path between two points. Particularly, we consider the following preprocessing problem: given a point $s$ on a polyhedral surface and a positive real number $r$, to build a data structure that enables, for any point $t$ on the surface, to enumerate all geodesics from $s$ to $t$ whose length is less than $r$. First, we present a naive algorithm by removing the trimming process from the MMP algorithm (1987). Next, we present an improved algorithm which is practically more efficient on a non-convex polyhedron, in terms of preprocessing time and memory consumption. Moreover, we introduce a single-pair geodesic graph to succinctly encode a result of geodesic query. Lastly, we compare these naive and improved algorithms by some computer experiments.

description: We present a large scale (1:10,000) geomorphological map of Favignana Island, in which landforms were recognized and genetically categorized based on analysis of stereoscopic aerial photographs and freely available satellite images, complimented by a few validation tests performed in the field. The map was created following the guidelines of the Italian Geomorphological Working Group for landforms symbolic representation. This includes an immediate visual differentiationof the genetic character and the state of activity of landforms. Favignana, belonging to the Egadi Archipelago in the Tyrrhenian Sea (SW Italy), is a mid-sized (ca. 20 km2) mostly carbonatic island. The marine protected area surrounding the island represents the main attraction for tourists. Through this map, it was possible to highlight the richness and diversity, in terms of abundance and peculiarity of landforms, that characterizes the Island. This peculiarity makes of Favignana an excellent candidate for the exploitation of its geoheritage for touristic purposes.

description: Precision radial velocity (RV) measurements of the Sun-like dwarf 14 Herculis published by Naef et. al (2004), Butler et. al (2006) and Wittenmyer et al (2007) reveal a Jovian planet in a 1760 day orbit and a trend indicating the second distant object. On the grounds of dynamical considerations, we test a hypothesis that the trend can be explained by the presence of an additional giant planet. We derive dynamical limits to th orbital parameters of the putative outer Jovian companion in an orbit within ~13 AU. In this case, the mutual interactions between the Jovian planets are important for the long-term stability of the system. The best self-consistent and stable Newtonian fit to an edge-on configuration of Jovian planets has the outer planet in 9 AU orbit with a moderate eccentricity ~0.2 and confined to a zone spanned by the low-order mean motion resonances 5:1 and 6:1. This solution lies in a shallow minimum of \Chi and persists over a wide range of the system inclination. Other stable configurations within 1σconfidence interval of the best fit are possible for the semi-major axis of the outer planet in the range of (6,13) AU and the eccentricity in the range of (0,0.3). The orbital inclination cannot yet be determined but when it decreases, both planetary masses approach ~10 Jupiter masses and for ~30 deg the hierarchy of the masses is reversed.

description: K-essence is a minimally-coupled scalar field whose Lagrangian density $\mathcal{L}$ is a function of the field value $ϕ$ and the kinetic energy $X=\frac{1}{2}\partial_μϕ\partial^μϕ$. In the thawing scenario, the scalar field is frozen by the large Hubble friction in the early universe, and therefore initial conditions are specified. We construct thawing k-essence models by generating Taylor expansion coefficients of $\mathcal{L}(ϕ, X)$ from random matrices. From the ensemble of randomly generated thawing k-essence models, we select dark energy candidates by assuming negative pressure and non-growth of sub-horizon inhomogeneities. For each candidate model the dark energy equation of state function is fit to the Chevallier-Polarski-Linder parameterization $w(a) \approx w_0+w_a(1-a)$, where $a$ is the scale factor. The thawing k-essence dark models distribute very non-uniformly in the $(w_0, w_a)$ space. About 90\% models cluster in a narrow band in the proximity of a slow-roll line $w_a\approx -1.42 \left(\frac{Ω_m}{0.3}\right)^{0.64}(1+w_0)$, where $Ω_m$ is the present matter density fraction. This work is a proof of concept that for a certain class of models very non-uniform theoretical prior on $(w_0, w_a)$ can be obtained to improve the statistics of model selection.

description: The origin and growth of magnetic fields in galaxies is still something of an enigma. It is generally assumed that seed fields are amplified over time through the dynamo effect, but there are few constraints on the timescale. It has recently been demonstrated that field strengths as traced by rotation measures of distant quasars are comparable to those seen today, but it was unclear whether the high fields were in the exotic environments of the quasars themselves or distributed along the line of sight. Here we demonstrate that the quasars with strong MgII absorption lines are unambiguously associated with larger rotation measures. Since MgII absorption occurs in the haloes of normal galaxies along the sightline to the quasars, this association requires that organized fields of surprisingly high strength are associated with normal galaxies when the Universe was only about one-third of its present age.

Storia della scuola italiana

description: Nella penisola italiana del XVIII secolo, l'insegnamento elementare e medio appare una diretta conseguenza della precettistica privata, più che una reale istituzione pubblica. Dalla seconda metà del '700 si manifesta, al contrario, un'attenzione maggiore all'organizzazione della scuola pubblica, anche a livello popolare, specie con i progetti di riforma illuministici. Oltre ai tentativi di riforma dell'istruzione superiore, viene impostata una politica scolastica aperta al popolo, nella quale si distingue per-prima la Lombardia di Maria Teresa, seguita dagli altri Stati italiani. I principi diventano i portatori di un nuovo concetto di Stato laico ed autonomo, sganciato dal controllo ecclesiastico (sotto questo aspetto l'abolizione della Compagnia di Gesù nel 1773 diede un contributo decisivo). Tuttavia, i problemi a cui si doveva far fronte erano enormi: le condizioni miserevoli del popolo, la mancanza dei maestri, gli scarsi investimenti statali e l'assenza quasi totale della didattica, unite ad una coscienza ancora poco chiara della funzione civica dell'istruzione, resero vani i numerosi tentativi dei sovrani illuminati.

description: The 3D local atomic structures and crystal defects at the interfaces of heterostructures control their electronic, magnetic, optical, catalytic and topological quantum properties, but have thus far eluded any direct experimental determination. Here we determine the 3D local atomic positions at the interface of a MoS2-WSe2 heterojunction with picometer precision and correlate 3D atomic defects with localized vibrational properties at the epitaxial interface. We observe point defects, bond distortion, atomic-scale ripples and measure the full 3D strain tensor at the heterointerface. By using the experimental 3D atomic coordinates as direct input to first principles calculations, we reveal new phonon modes localized at the interface, which are corroborated by spatially resolved electron energy-loss spectroscopy. We expect that this work will open the door to correlate structure-property relationships of a wide range of heterostructure interfaces at the single-atom level.

description: We report on precision mass measurements of $^{113,115,117}$Ru performed with the JYFLTRAP double Penning trap mass spectrometer at the Accelerator Laboratory of University of Jyväskylä. The phase-imaging ion-cyclotron-resonance technique was used to resolve the ground and isomeric states in $^{113,115}$Ru and enabled for the first time a measurement of the isomer excitation energies, $E_x(^{113}$Ru$^{m})=100.5(8)$ keV and $E_x(^{115}$Ru$^{m})=129(5)$ keV. The ground state of $^{117}$Ru was measured using the time-of-flight ion-cyclotron-resonance technique. The new mass-excess value for $^{117}$Ru is around 36 keV lower and 7 times more precise than the previous literature value. With the more precise ground-state mass values, the evolution of the two-neutron separation energies is further constrained and a similar trend as predicted by the BSkG1 model is obtained up to the neutron number $N=71$.

When the scale is set by the string tension, the action density, topological susceptibility and low-lying glueball spectrum are similar to those arising in lattice QCD. The physical mechanism producing confinement is explained, and a number of analytical insights into the effective theory are presented.

description: Contemporary metropolises are not defined in the international urban context by their territorial dimensions, population's density or high skyline, but by studying a group of phenomena related to processes and quality of production, cultural patterns and, above all, human relations throughout space. Geographers, sociologists, planners analyse the metropolitan "texture" and they try to describe processes which involve rnillions of people, expressing transformations of society and underlining in each case the cultural topics. So it was possible to speak of an ecologica! city (WHO, 1992; Alberti et al., 1994) directed toward a sustainable development', a technological city, where innovation leads the organisation of social life (Castells, 1989; Salomon et al., 1994), a multiethnic city, where social exclusion and spatial segregation take piace (Wieviorka, 1994), a global city, with an economie system that push_es low-income people (with a lot of women) to take informai jobs, increasing social problems (Sassen, 1991 ), a retail city, with diffusi on of shopping malls and "no-places" without specific identity (Augé, 1992), and a city with 4 populations (Martinotti, 1993; 1996), where studies highlight social characters who live together in metropolitan places, but according to different spaces.

description: Magnetic dissipation through decay of Alfven waves in the magnetar magnetosphere is discussed. Transport of magnetic fields in the star leads to dissipation of the magnetic energy through either direct internal heating or transferring of the energy in waves that decay in the magnetar magnetosphere. In the latter case, the Alfven waves are excited by crust dislocations or elastic waves underneath the star's surface. It is suggested that these Alfven waves can decay into ion sound waves which can be effectively damped leading to strong plasma heating. Hot plasmas expand producing transient X-rays.

description: Roma, polo d'attrazione per gli inestimabili tesori d'arte che generosamente offre ai turisti e grazie alla sua cultura millenaria, ha da sempre inevitabilmente offuscato la provincia. Tuttavia, leggendo i diari di personaggi illustri come Byron, Goethe, Gogol e di altri viaggiatori provenienti da ogni parte d'Europa che seguivano la moda del Grand Tour del XVIII e XIX secolo, ci accorgiamo che molti di loro si spinsero fuori dei confini della città eterna ed affrontarono la scoperta della campagna romana e delle zone collinari o montuose attraversate dal Tevere e dall'Aniene.

description: We theoretically calculate the dynamic structure factor of two-dimensional Rashba-type spinorbit coupled (SOC) Fermi superfluid with random phase approximation, and analyse the main characters of dynamical excitation sh own by both density and spin dynamic structure factor during a continuous phase transition between Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer superfluid and topological superfluid. Generally we find three different excitations, including collective phonon excitation, two-atom molecular and atomic excitations, and pair-breaking excitations due to two-branch structure of quasi-particle spectrum. It should be emphasized that collective phonon excitation is overlapped with a gapless DD type pair-breaking excitation at the critical Zeeman field hc, and is imparted a finite width to phonon peak when transferred momentum q is around Fermi vector kF. At a much larger transferred momentum (q = 4kF ), the pair-breaking excitation happens earlier than two-atom molecular excitation, which is different from the conventional Fermi superfluid without SOC effect.

description: Bubble Chambers provided the dominant particle detection technology in accelerator experiments for several decades, eventually falling into disuse with the advent of other techniques. We report here on the first period of operation of an ultra-clean, room-temperature bubble chamber containing 1.5 kg of superheated CF$_{3}$I, a target maximally sensitive to spin-dependent and -independent Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP) couplings. An exposure in excess of 250 kg-days is obtained, with a live-time fraction reaching 80%. This illustrates the ability to employ bubble chambers in a new realm, the search for dark matter particles. Improved limits on the spin-dependent WIMP-proton scattering cross section are extracted from this first period. An extreme intrinsic insensitivity to the backgrounds commonly limiting these experiments (a rejection factor for photon-induced electrons of $\sim10^{-10}$) has been measured in operating conditions leading to the detection of low-energy nuclear recoils such as those expected from WIMPs.

description: Forse più che in ogni altra città, a Torino la ricorrenza dei 150 anni
dell’Unità d’Italia è stata particolarmente sentita. Cinque anni dopo
l’evento delle Olimpiadi invernali, che avevano cambiato radicalmente
il volto e l’immagine della città svincolandola dall’etichetta di one company
town, i festeggiamenti del 2011 hanno costituito un’ulteriore occasione di rilancio sotto il profilo culturale. Il grande coinvolgimento di pubblico al denso
programma di eventi e manifestazioni celebrative (come la Notte Bianca
del 17 Marzo o l’adunata annuale degli Alpini) così come nell’esposizione
delle bandiere tricolori alle finestre in tutti i quartieri della città, ha confermato
il carattere diffuso e partecipato di questo particolare momento della
città che riflette su se stessa: da un lato, rielaborando e ripensando la propria
storia, le proprie risorse artistiche e culturali; dall’altro lato, cercando
nuove identità e nuovi percorsi di sviluppo.
Tra le varie mostre (di taglio più o meno celebrativo) che si collocano in
questa prospettiva di auto-riflessione, “Torino: storia di una città” merita una
certa attenzione per le modalità, particolarmente innovative, con cui i curatori
hanno scelto di presentare la città e la sua storia.

description: The occurrence of a planet transiting in front of its host star offers the opportunity to observe the planet's atmosphere filtering starlight. The fraction of occulted stellar flux is roughly proportional to the optically thick area of the planet, the extent of which depends on the opacity of the planet's gaseous envelope at the observed wavelengths. Chemical species, haze, and clouds are now routinely detected in exoplanet atmospheres through rather small features in transmission spectra, i.e., collections of planet-to-star area ratios across multiple spectral bins and/or photometric bands. Technological advances have led to a shrinking of the error bars down to a few tens of parts per million (ppm) per spectral point for the brightest targets. The upcoming James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is anticipated to deliver transmission spectra with precision down to 10 ppm. The increasing precision of measurements requires a reassessment of the approximations hitherto adopted in astrophysical models, including transit light curve models. Recently, it has been shown that neglecting the planet's thermal emission can introduce significant biases in the transit depth measured with the JWST/Mid-InfraRed Instrument, integrated between 5 and 12 $μ$m. In this paper, we take a step forward by analyzing the effects of the approximation on transmission spectra over the 0.6-12 $μ$m wavelength range covered by various JWST instruments. We present open source software to predict the spectral bias, showing that, if not corrected, it may affect the inferred molecular abundances and thermal structure of some exoplanet atmospheres.

description: The upcoming high energy experiments at the LHC are one of the most outstanding efforts for a better understanding of nature. It is associated with great hopes in the physics community. But there is also some fear in the public, that the conjectured production of mini black holes might lead to a dangerous chain reaction. In this paper we summarize the most straight forward arguments that are necessary to rule out such doomsday scenarios.

description: A pochi mesi dalla Primavera araba e dall’inizio degli sbarchi massicci
degli immigrati sulle coste calcaree di Lampedusa, le notizie del ritrovamento
di nuovi cadaveri nelle acque del Mediterraneo rischiano di
cadere nel silenzio a causa dell’assuefazione. Tra le migliaia d’immigrati sbarcati in primavera a Lampedusa e poi trasferiti verso Nord, un gruppo di 25 tunisini è stato ospitato in una struttura alberghiera di Gualdo Tadino. Gestita dai Padri Salesiani, la struttura può accogliere circa 300 persone e per alcune settimane ha ospitato (dietro rimborso a seguito dei finanziamenti dell’Unione Europea) i 25 tunisini. Alcuni dei 25 tunisini il 16 aprile 2011 hanno rilasciato delle interviste alla scrivente narrando e spiegando le motivazioni della scelta migratoria e pregando di diffondere il loro punto di vista affinché gli italiani potessero comprendere meglio loro stessi e i loro comportamenti.

description: The stationary background flow in the spherically symmetric infall of a compressible fluid, coupled to the space-time defined by the static Schwarzschild metric, has been subjected to linearized perturbations. The perturbative procedure is based on the continuity condition and it shows that the coupling of the flow with the geometry of space-time brings about greater stability for the flow, to the extent that the amplitude of the perturbation, treated as a standing wave, decays in time, as opposed to the amplitude remaining constant in the Newtonian limit. In qualitative terms this situation simulates the effect of a dissipative mechanism in the classical Bondi accretion flow, defined in the Newtonian construct of space and time. As a result of this approach it becomes impossible to define an acoustic metric for a conserved spherically symmetric flow, described within the framework of Schwarzschild geometry. In keeping with this view, the perturbation, considered separately as a high-frequency travelling wave, also has its amplitude reduced.

description: Genus Bathygadus Günther, 1878
DISTINGUISHING FEATURES.— Chin barbel usually absent; when present barbel tiny and difficult to see without magnification. In some species, 1D, P, and V with a relatively elongated ray, but never extremely long and thickened to degree found in Gadomus species.
REMARKS.— Identifying some members of this genus has been difficult and uncertain, partly owing to the often poor condition of the specimens. Their delicate bones and integument are easily damaged in trawls, and crucial identification features are often distorted, damaged, or destroyed. The many species described from the broad area encompassing Japan, Taiwan, the South China Sea, Philippines, and Indonesia and our limited knowledge of distributional limits of the species leave the possibility of encountering one or another species wide open. Our study material included a number of specimens for which we could not arrive at a satisfactory identification; such specimens are listed under Bathygadus sp. indet. and accompanied by brief remarks.
The genus was reviewed by Howes and Crimmen (1990), but many of their taxonomic conclusions are questionable (see Sazonov 1994:101; Iwamoto and Merrett 1997:479).

description: Understanding the condensed-phase behavior of chiral molecules is important in biology, as well as in a range of technological applications, such as the manufacture of pharmaceuticals. Here, we use molecular dynamics simulations to study a chiral four-site molecular model that exhibits a second-order symmetry-breaking phase transition from a supercritical racemic liquid, into subcritical D-rich and L-rich liquids. We determine the infinite-size critical temperature using the fourth-order Binder cumulant, and we show that the finite-size scaling behavior of the order parameter is compatible with the 3D Ising universality class. We also study the spontaneous D-rich to L-rich transition at a slightly subcritical temperature $T\approx0.985 T_c$ and our findings indicate that the free energy barrier for this transformation increases with system size as $N^{2/3}$ where $N$ is the number of molecules, consistent with a surface-dominated phenomenon. The critical behavior observed herein suggests a mechanism for chirality selection in which a liquid of chiral molecules spontaneously forms a phase enriched in one of the two enantiomers as the temperature is lowered below the critical point. Furthermore, the increasing free energy barrier with system size indicates that fluctuations between the L-rich and D-rich phases are suppressed as the size of the system increases, trapping it in one of the two enantiomerically-enriched phases. Such a process could provide the basis for an alternative explanation for the origin of biological homochirality. We also conjecture the possibility of observing nucleation at subcritical temperatures under the action of a suitable chiral external field.
