Spark spectra of zinc
Creators: name: Dick, Kenneth Anderson
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The spark spectra of zinc have been photographed in the region λ350 Å to λ8000 Å using a three metre normal incidence vacuum grating spectrograph, a twenty-one foot Eagle-Paschen " in-plane" grating spectrograph, and a Hilger E478 large automatic prism spectrograph with interchangeable glass or quartz optical trains. The spectra were excited using a condensed spark in helium source, a hollow cathode discharge, and a condensed electrodeless discharge source. In all, 5982 spectral lines were measured. Sixty-four line classifications were made in Zn I from previously established energy levels. Three hundred and seventy-one line classifications were made in Zn II, and 33 new levels were established. In Zn III, major revisions and extensions have led to a total of 1259 line classifications and 264 energy levels were established, 44 of which had been determined previously. Revisions to a previous report on the spectrum of Zn IV have resulted in an increase of the number of classified lines to 329.

description: The retardation spectrometer aSPECT was built to measure the shape of the proton spectrum in free neutron decay with high precision. This allows us to determine the antineutrino electron angular correlation coefficient a. We aim for a precision more than one order of magnitude better than the present best value, which is Delta_a /a = 5%. In a recent beam time performed at the Institut Laue-Langevin during April / May 2008 we reached a statistical accuracy of about 2% per 24 hours measurement time. Several systematic effects were investigated experimentally. We expect the total relative uncertainty to be well below 5%.

description: The question how the outer solar atmosphere is heated from solar photospheric temperatures of about 5800K up to solar chromospheric and coronal temperatures of about 20 000K and millions of degrees respectively, remained without any satisfying answer for centuries. On 4 May 2005, I recorded several time series of Hα line scans with the GREGOR Fabry-Perot Interferometer, still deployed at the German Vacuum Tower Telescope (VTT), for different solar limb and on-disc positions as well for quiet sun at solar disk center. The spatially and temporally highly resolved time series of Hα line parameters reveal the entire and detailed complexity as well as the overwhelming dynamics of spicules covering the entire solar disk, thus apparently confirming spicules as the potential driver for chromospheric heating of both the Sun and sun-like stars.

description: We present results of GGA+U calculations for the "d^0 magnet" RbO_2, where magnetic properties are due to partially filled oxygen p orbitals. We show that on-site interactions on the oxygen sites lead to a strong tendency towards the formation of an orbitally polarized insulating state, in contrast to the half-metallic behavior predicted for this class of compounds within pure LDA/GGA. The obtained energy differences between different orbitally ordered configurations are sizeable, indicating an orbital ordering temperature higher than the antiferromagnetic Neel temperature of ~15 K. Our results demonstrate the importance of correlation effects in p electron magnets such as RbO_2.

description: Enforcement of seat belt laws has been conducted largely during daylight hours. Daytime enforcement programs have worked well to improve observed belt use rates during the day, but have been shown less often to affect nighttime use. Fatality data show that unbelted occupants at night are a large portion of the motor vehicle fatality problem, with belt use at its lowest around 1 a.m. A substantial reduction in fatalities could be achieved by getting late-night occupants to buckle up. This study had two objectives. The first objective was to collect information regarding methods of nighttime enforcement. The second objective was to implement and evaluate programs that enforced the seat belt use law at night.
BEYOND GDP: DEFINITION AND MAKING OF NEW WELFARE INDICATORS

Year: 2014

description: Ultimamente il dibattito sulle nuove misure di benessere ha raggiunto un vasto pubblico soprattutto grazie al forte battage fatto dai media. Tale dibattito, spesso accompagnato dal ricordo delle parole di Robert Kennedy (discorso tenuto il 18 marzo 1968 presso la Kansas University), è stato sollecitato anche grazie a prestigiose iniziative, come quella della commissione istituita nel 2008 dal Presidente francese Sarkozy e ormai nota attraverso i nomi di coloro che l’hanno presieduta, Stiglitz, Sen e Fitoussi (http://www.stiglitz-sen-fitoussi.fr/en/index.htm). In Italia, il progetto BES (Benessere Equo e Sostenibile –http://www.misuredelbenessere.it) condotto dall’ISTAT di concerto con il CNEL rappresenta uno delle iniziative più avanzate e importanti nel panorama internazionale, avendo messo a frutto non solo la vasta produzione scientifica sul tema ma anche l’ampia gamma di esperienze che sono state realizzate. La definizione di benessere, e conseguentemente la sua osservazione e il suo monitoraggio, deve fare i conti con la complessità della realtà, da una parte, e, dall’altra, con il limite imposto dalla sua finitezza. In questo senso la definizione e l'adozione di nuovi indicatori per misurare il benessere dei Paesi da una parte impone un cambiamento di paradigma e di mentalità in tutti gli attori sociali, mentre dall'altra pone diversi problemi metodologici legati proprio alla complessità della realtà e della sua osservazione. Il panel ha l’obiettivo di mostrare il ruolo dei nuovi indicatori in questa prospettiva evidenziando come implicazioni strettamente metodologiche e tecniche presentano anche conseguenze concettuali.

description: We report on analysis of timing and spectroscopy of the Vela pulsar using eleven months of observations with the Large Area Telescope on the Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope. The intrinsic brightness of Vela at GeV energies combined with the angular resolution and sensitivity of the LAT allow us to make the most detailed study to date of the energy-dependent light curves and phase-resolved spectra, using a LAT-derived timing model. The light curve consists of two peaks (P1 and P2) connected by bridge emission containing a third peak (P3). We have confirmed the strong decrease of the P1/P2 ratio with increasing energy seen with EGRET and previous Fermi LAT data, and observe that P1 disappears above 20 GeV. The increase with energy of the mean phase of the P3 component can be followed with much greater detail, showing that P3 and P2 are present up to the highest energies of pulsation. We find significant pulsed emission at phases outside the main profile, indicating that magnetospheric emission exists over 80% of the pulsar period. With increased high-energy counts the phase-averaged spectrum is seen to depart from a power- law with simple exponential cutoff, and is better fit with a more gradual cutoff. The spectra in fixed-count phase bins are well fit with power-laws with exponential cutoffs, revealing a strong and complex phase dependence of the cutoff energy, especially in the peaks. By combining these results with predictions of the outer magnetosphere models that map emission characteristics to phase, it will be possible to probe the particle acceleration and the structure of the pulsar magnetosphere with unprecedented detail.

THE GLOBAL ECONOMY AND INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT COOPERATION IN EMERGING COUNTRIES AND NEW MARKETS
Creators: name: Fantini, Emanuele
Publisher: name: JUNCO | Journal of UNiversities and international development COoperation
Year: 2014

description: Several countries that in the past have been traditional beneficiaries of foreign aid and development cooperation are witnessing unprecedented processes of economic growth. The so called “African lions” or the countries of the “Emerging Africa”, India, Vietnam or Brazil are increasingly seen as attractive markets for foreign direct investments and the business community in general. Investors are competing to gain relevant positions within these markets, also as a way to compensate the crisis currently affecting traditional markets like Europe. Consequently, within these countries, new economic actors – companies, foundations, philanthro-capitalism,migrant entrepreneurs… - increasingly side or overlap with the traditional actors of international development cooperation. These processes poses relevant questions and challenges in terms of: i) the relationship between economic growth and social development, with particular focus on the issue of inclusiveness of the process of economic growth and accumulation; ii) the coherence between the initiatives of economic and development cooperation undertaken by national or local systems of cooperation; iii) innovation in the financing and implementing of development cooperation projects; iv) the relationship and the overlap between for profit and not for profit, between economic interests and international solidarity.

description: Understanding the gender differences in agricultural productivity is crucial for formu-lating informed and effective policies to sustainably improve low productivity whichcharacterises agriculture in Sub-Sahara Africa. Using a panel dataset from the ICRISATled Tropical Legumes project III (2008–2013), we analyse the gender gap in theproduction of legumes in Malawi. Employing the Oaxaca–Blinder decompositionmethod allows decomposition of gender gap into the following: (i) the portion causedby observable differences in the factors of production (endowment effect) and (ii) theunexplained portion caused by differences in return to the same observed factors ofproduction (structural effect). We conducted the empirical analysis separately forpigeonpea and groundnut. Our findings reveal that for groundnut cultivated plots,women are 28% less productive than men after controlling for observed factors ofproduction; however, the gender gap estimated in the pigeonpea cultivated plots are notstatistically significant. The decomposition estimates reveal that the endowment effectis more relevant than the structural effect, suggesting that access to productive inputscontributes largest to the gender gap in groundnut productivity, and if women involvedhad access to equal level of inputs, the gap will be reduced significantly. The variationin the findings for groundnut and pigeon plot suggests that policy orientation towardsreducing gender productivity gap should be crop specific.
The measurement of transition probabilities of atomic neon
Creators: name: Robinson, Alexander Maguire
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The transmission of neon line radiation through the positive column of a neon dc glow discharge has been measured. Six lengths of the column were used and a graphical comparison of the theoretical and experimental transmissions were made. This permitted a determination of the absorption coefficient of the gas, for the case of Doppler-broadened spectral lines. The relative transition probabilities for transitions with the same lower level were obtained from the values of the absorption coefficients. Radial variation of the density of absorbing atoms and the presence of isotopes in the column were taken into account. The relative intensities of several pairs of spectral lines emitted by neon gas excited by a pulsed electron beam have been measured. The neon was at a low pressure (.1 mm Hg) and excited for a short time (200 nsec) to suppress self-absorption of the emitted radiation. The relative transition probabilities for lines with the same upper level were determined from the intensity measurements. A weighted averaging technique was used to connect the relative transition probabilities of the absorption and emission measurements and a complete set of relative transition probabilities was obtained. The probabilities were placed on an absolute scale using the results of a lifetime measurement recently made by van Andel /17/.
MICROFINANCE: FROM THEORY TO PRACTICE
Creators: name: Conzo, Pierluigi
Publisher: name: JUNCO | Journal of UNiversities and international development COoperation
Year: 2014

description: Access to financial services is one of the fundamental engines of development. According to recent estimates by the World Bank 2.5 billion of adults (i.e. 50% of worldwide adults) do not have a formal bank account and the low-income individuals are the ones more exposed to financial exclusion because of poverty, travel distances and monetary and non-monetary burdens associated to opening a bank account. Financial exclusion is also correlated to unequal distribution of income. It has been estimated by the World Bank that the richest adults in developing country are more then twice as likely to have a formal account. Moreover in many developing countries access to financial services either for loans or savings is generally informal; this implies the “unbanked” pay higher fees on such services than they would if they could access formal services. Spread nowadays in many developing countries, microfinance services have contributed to bridge the gap between the unbankable’s investment ideas and financial opportunities, helping low-income households in asset-building, risk management and consumption smoothing as well as investment in education and health through the additional income generated by credit access. As a side-effect, microfinance has also contributed to bridge the gap between practitioners and researchers and within the latter. The growing attention to microfinance practices has lead to new fruitful research ideas in the field of developing studies, attracting also large synergies between practitioners (i.e. NGOs, non-profit foundations, associations, institutions for development, etc.) and academic researchers with heterogeneous background (psychology, economics, sociology, anthropology, etc.). This panel has collected academic research on financial services in developing countries often carried out jointly with national or international practitioners. In particular, the following studies focus respectively on micro-insurance schemes in southern Ethiopia, on current and new potential approaches to microfinance as a tool for social inclusion and on the microfinance as recovery tool after a natural disaster in the specific context of Sri Lanka. All of these researches directly or indirectly highlight the importance of a mutual cooperation between the academic and the practitioners’ world for a more comprehensive and policy-oriented analysis of microfinance in the international cooperation arena.

LOCAL DEVELOPMENT IN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION
Creators: name: Dansero, Egidio
Publisher: name: JUNCO | Journal of UNiversities and international development COoperation
Year: 2014

description: The session aimed at investigating the relationship between cooperation and local development practices in the Global South. Theoretically as well as at the level of development cooperation policies and strategies, a reconfiguration of the reference scales at which the very idea of development is conceptualized has been taking place since the Seventies. The context is that of the process of reorganization of the international politico-economic system that began in those years, which also encouraged the social sciences to adopt new perspectives in analyzing and interpreting social phenomena and economic processes. Alongside the essentially aspatial and macroeconomic approaches which remain dominant to this day, an attention to the local dimensions of development has gradually gained ground, moving from somewhat subterranean beginnings to its current prominence. This reconfiguration is very much part of the considerations that have matured since the early Eighties regarding the crisis that swept through the field of development studies and the post-impasse debate that has enlivened the subsequent decades. In this context, local development has steadily become more and more central to development policies, starting with a number of Northern countries in the Eighties, and explicitly emerging in the developing countries since the second half of the Nineties.

description: We propose and analyze a scheme to interface individual neutral atoms with nanoscale solid-state systems. The interface is enabled by optically trapping the atom via the strong near-field generated by a sharp metallic nanotip. We show that under realistic conditions, a neutral atom can be trapped with position uncertainties of just a few nanometers, and within tens of nanometers of other surfaces. Simultaneously, the guided surface plasmon modes of the nanotip allow the atom to be optically manipulated, or for fluorescence photons to be collected, with very high efficiency. Finally, we analyze the surface forces and heating and decoherence rates acting on the trapped atom.

description: The majority of coronal magnetic field extrapolation methods use photospheric observations as boundary conditions together with the assumption of a force-free or even potential corona. However, observations suggest that the photosphere and chromosphere are not force-free and that, therefore, currents perpendicular to the magnetic field should be present in the lower layers of the solar atmosphere. As a result, to properly model these non-force-free regions, extrapolation methods based on magnetohydrostatic (MHS) equilibria are needed. Compared to force-free equilibria, MHS equilibria include the pressure gradient force and the gravitational force in addition to the Lorentz force. This thesis primarily investigates the potential of linear MHS extrapolation to become a practical, efficient and convenient tool for local coronal field modelling. A detailed investigation is carried out into asymptotic solutions of a specific family of MHS equilibrium equations. This is important because these asymptotic solutions can help to increase the numerical efficiency of MHS models. In addition, theoretical and practical techniques are explored to enable the application of the analytical model presented in this thesis to observational data and to further reduce its computation time. Using specialised codes which were written during the course of the work for this thesis, we demonstrate the capabilities of this new magnetic field extrapolation method. Furthermore, we test the results based on our method by comparing them to "ground-truth" data from other extrapolation methods and from MHD simulations. Furthermore, we present the very first applications of the newly developed tool to observational data. For these applications we use data by the Helioseismic Magnetic Imager onboard the Solar Dynamics Observatory, and by the Polarimetric and Helioseismic Imager onboard Solar Orbiter. Advantages and disadvantages of the model are discussed together with opportunities to further increase its efficiency. Although the code developed is not yet ready for public release, it has the potential to be developed into a publicly available tool for 3D MHS extrapolation for use by the broader scientific community.
OPEN DATA AND OPEN ACCESS: WHICH KNOWLEDGE SHARING FOR DEVELOPMENT COOPERATION?

Publisher: name: JUNCO | Journal of UNiversities and international development COoperation
Year: 2014

description: The significant value of Open Data and Open Access, both as transparency tools toward public opinion, and as valorization of the results achieved by the institutions, is growing on a daily basis, at global level. Even the world of university cooperation can now take the opportunity to confront with the latter. Regarding this topic, many are the questions upon which we would like to reflect together, especially looking at what we learned in the last few years. Which could be the advantages and disadvantages for university cooperation, originating from a more and more intense data and information sharing? Which are the tools and the most suitable channels? Which indicators or objective systems will have to be monitored as priority in the next years? Which will be, in the short run, the system of indicators that our institutions will need in order to address their policies and to make visible, within international contexts, the mainfold initiatives promoted in the local contexts? In May 2013 in Geneva, UNESCO launched at the world summit on the Information Society Forum its new initiative for Open Access. UNESCO is the first organization of the United Nations to make available to everyone, free of charge, its publications, with the possibility to readopt and redistribute them. Does it represent an interesting stimulus, even for universities involved in the field of cooperation? If we really were able to share methodologies, tools, approaches how much more and better could we do? In times of abundant resources, finding synergies among work groups and projects could be considered an interesting added value; now, in a phase of more and more scarce resources, the knowledge sharing commitment could turn out to be an essential operative modality to continue guaranteeing an effective presence of universities within the cooperation field. Starting from here, the panel proposes to delineate possible answers, confronting the point of view of the universities, national and international institutions and stimulating a cooperative reflection.

description: Rääkides patsiendi privaatsusest tänapäeva meditsiini kontekstis, avaneb meie ees hulk erinevaid, aga põhimõttelise tähendusega küsimusi: Mida tähendab patsiendi privaatsuse mõiste tänapäeval patsiendile? Millise sisu annab sellele ühiskond? Milline on arsti vastutusala patsiendi privaatsuse hindamisel? Kas patsient on valmis jagama vastutust ja teadvustama, mida toovad kaasa tema valikud? Milline on arsti vastutus patsiendile tema privaatsuse selgitamisel?

description: We consider the inverse problem of determining an optical mask that produces a desired circuit pattern in photolithography. We set the problem as a shape design problem in which the unknown is a two-dimensional domain. The relationship between the target shape and the unknown is modeled through diffractive optics. We develop a variational formulation that is well-posed and propose an approximation that can be shown to have convergence properties. The approximate problem can serve as a foundation to numerical methods.

description: Reciprocal arcs represent the lowest order cycle possible to find in directed graphs without self-loops. Representing also a measure of feed-back between vertices, it is interesting to understand how reciprocal arcs influence other properties of complex networks. In this paper we focus on influence of reciprocal arcs on vertex degree distribution and degree correlations. We show that there is a fundamental difference between properties observed on the static network compared to the properties of networks which are obtained by simple evolution mechanism driven by reciprocity. We also present a way to statistically infer the portion of reciprocal arcs which can be explained as a consequence of feed-back process on the static network. In the rest of the paper the influence of reciprocal arcs on a model of growing network is also presented. It is shown that our model of growing network nicely interpolates between BA model for undirected and the BA model for directed networks.

description: We study the action of a real-reductive group $G=K\exp(\lie{p})$ on real-analytic submanifold $X$ of a Kähler manifold $Z$. We suppose that the action of $G$ extends holomorphically to an action of the complexified group $G^\mbb{C}$ such that the action of a maximal Hamiltonian subgroup is Hamiltonian. The moment map $μ$ induces a gradient map $μ_\lie{p}\colon X\to\lie{p}$. We show that $μ_\lie{p}$ almost separates the $K$--orbits if and only if a minimal parabolic subgroup of $G$ has an open orbit. This generalizes Brion's characterization of spherical Kähler manifolds with moment maps.

description: The number of motorcyclist crash-related fatalities has more than doubled during the past 10 years. In the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU), Congress directed the Secretary of Transportation to conduct a comprehensive study of the causes of motorcycle crashes. In anticipation of this mandate, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration awarded a contract to Westat, Inc., and Dynamic Science, Inc., to conduct a Pilot Study to develop and test a methodology for in-depth motorcycle crash investigation. Using a protocol developed by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development for a multination European study as a guide, the project had four main goals: (1) Develop comprehensive data collection forms, a coding manual, and field protocol for crash investigations; (2) Develop data collection forms, a coding manual, and field protocol for the collection of control group data; (3) Develop training material for use in a future larger scale study; and,  (4) Assess the levels of effort and resources required for each stage of an investigation.
Effect of deuteration on the neel temperature of CoCl2.6H20

description: The nuclear magnetic resonance technique has been used to study the effect of deuteration on the Neel temperature of CoCl₂•6H₂0 single crystals. The Neel temperature varies with a period of 180° as the external magnetic field is rotated about the b-axis⊥ the a-c plane. On deuteration, the Neel temperature rises for all orientations, the more deuterium being introduced the higher the transition point. The maximum increase of approximately 6% in Neel temperature is obtained with a 92% concentration of deuterium. In addition, the anisotropy in TN decreases from approximately 0.08°K for 0% deuteration to slightly less than 0.05°K for 92% deuteration. Further, the orientation-averaged Neel temperature seems to vary linearly with the cube root of relative concentration of deuterium. In the vicinity of H₀ = 4,000 gauss, the Neel temperature increases with an increase in the external magnetic field [formula omitted] being ⊥ c-axis. This unusual behaviour is common to deuterated as well as non-deuterated samples and has not yet been explained. Following Haseda's conjecture, a semi-empirical attempt is made to establish a connection among the change in Neel temperature upon deuteration, the super-exchange parameter and the potential of a proton in a hydrogen bond. The picture presented is that the Neel temperature rises on deuteration because of a change in the average of the super-exchange parameter over the ground vibrational state of the hydrogen atom. An x-ray analysis shows that at room temperature the CoCl₂•6H₂0 and CoC1₂•6D₂0 crystals have the same symmetry and their cell dimensions do not differ by more than 0.2%. The infra-red spectrum of CoC1₂•6D₂0 has been used to determine the value of electrostatic field gradient at the deuteron sites. This value is consistent with the observed quadrupole splitting of the n.m.r. spectrum of the deuterons. The n.m.r. lines belonging to deuterons in the water molecules not forming a square configuration around cobalt ions have been identified.
PLANS AND PROJECTS “BEYOND THE BOUNDARIES”: SUBJECTS, KNOWLEDGE AND TOOLS

description: This panel proposed a disciplinary look at theoretical reflections and case studies useful to think about the role of the universities according to the specific perspectives of urban planning courses and curricula within the decentralized cooperation initiatives around the world. The focus is based on changes in knowledge and skills “required to” and “produced by” the universities, within a large numbers of international experiences, where researchers are more “service providers” or a kind of “problem solver” (on demand) rather than subjects able to develop a supportive expert knowledge to do better in the cities and territories beyond the national boundaries. In fact, in a context of fewer resources available, a lot of Italian universities have been involved within international cooperation projects, but with a very low ability to reflect on practices and translate these experiences in common knowledge to better carry out our work as planners (reading, interpreting and regulation of urban and territorial transformations) in fragile contexts (or in developing or emerging regions as well). Thus, the panel has been configured as a space to present and discuss researches and studies in order to enhance and connect projects and theoretical reflections on: - interventions in the international arena, in which specific experts skills were able to support processes and projects helpful to regain a more appropriate role in society and in the public debate; - strengthening the framework of the knowledge and skills of the Italian schools of planning resulting from the comparison and/or contamination with international experience also to reshape the national formative offers. Therefore, the aim is to verify the ability to deal with the internationalization of the practices and training that pass through the decentralized cooperation projects, by coming to terms with the continuous redefinition – within the practices – of the “disciplinary boundaries” and the professionalisms.
