description: The possible existence of a continuum encompassing the diversity of explosive stellar deaths,ranging from ordinary SNe to relativistic hypernovae associated with long duration GRBs, is under intense debate. In this context, SN2008D associated with XT080109 could represent a paradigmatic case, since it might exemplify a potential borderline event. The main aim is to infer geometric information of SN2008D through the evolution of its linear optical polarization. We also report the polarization evolution of SN2007uy, and discuss the properties of the host ISM towards the XT. The final goal is to compare the polarization properties, and hence the geometries of both SNe, which shone contemporaneously in NGC2770. This fortunate coincidence brought us the opportunity to observe both SNe simultaneously, and most importantly, with identical instrumental setups. The observations span 74.9 days, starting 3.6 days after the XT and are distributed in 11 visits. In addition we performed observations in the mm range in order to identify the dominant polarization. We report positive linear polarization detections at several epochs for SN2008D at a level of ~1% and at ~1.5% for SN2007uy. SN2007uy shows constant polarization, which could be described by the host interstellar polarization plus a constant eccentricity expansion on the sky plane. A statistical analysis of the distribution of the SN2008D Stokes parametres suggests that it could show an intrinsic variable polarization component. Assuming the SN2007uy polarization is constant, we find that the evolution of the intrinsic SN2008D polarization could be explained by an aspherical axisymmetric expansion with variable eccentricity. We come to the same result even if we make no assumption on SN2007uy, although at a lower significance level. We suggest that at least the projected, if not the intrinsic, geometries of both SNe could differ.

description: In a previous paper [arXiv:0712.2391], we presented the selection criteria needed to search for symbiotic stars in IPHAS, the INT Halpha survey of the Northern Galactic plane. IPHAS gives us the opportunity to make a systematic, complete search for symbiotic stars in a magnitude-limited volume. Follow-up spectroscopy at different telescopes worldwide of a sample of sixty two symbiotic star candidates is presented. Seven out of nineteen S-type candidates observed spectroscopically are confirmed to be genuine symbiotic stars. The spectral type of their red giant components, as well as reddening and distance, were computed by modelling the spectra. Only one new D-type symbiotic system, out of forty-three candidates observed, was found. This was as expected (see discussion in our paper on the selection criteria). The object shows evidence for a high density outflow expanding at a speed larger than 65 km/s. Most of the other candidates are lightly reddened classical T Tauri stars and more highly reddened young stellar objects that may be either more massive young stars of HAeBe type or classical Be stars. In addition, a few notable objects have been found, such as three new Wolf-Rayet stars and two relatively high-luminosity evolved massive stars. We also found a helium-rich source, possibly a dense ejecta hiding a WR star, which is surrounded by a large ionized nebula.

description: The strong coupling between lattice modes and charges which leads to the formation of charge density waves in materials such as the transition-metal dichalcogenides may also give rise to superconductivity in the same materials, mediated by the same exciton or phonon modes that dominate the charge ordered state. Such a superconducting phase has recently been observed for example in TiSe2, both upon intercalation with Copper and in the pristine material under pressure. Here we investigate the interplay of exciton formation and electron-phonon coupling within a simplified model description. We find that the combined exciton-phonon modes previously suggested to drive the charge density wave instability in TiSe2 are also responsible for the pairing of electrons in its superconducting regions. Based on these results, it is suggested that both of the observed domes form part of a single superconducting phase. We also study the effect of the quantum critical fluctuations emerging from the suppressed charge order on the transport properties directly above the superconducting region, and compare our finding with reported experimental results.

description: This thesis deals with the current methods available for X-ray structure determination and with the crystal and molecular structure determination of five compounds using these methods. The five compounds are 1) [ 2,3-Bis (dimethylarsino)- 1, 1, 1,4, 4, 4-hexaf luorobut-2-ene-As,As]tricarbonyldiiodotungsten(II),Me₂AsC (CF₃):C (CF₃) AsMe₂WI₂(CO)₃ 2) Dimethylammonium trichlorotris(dimethylsulphoxide}-ruthenate(II) , [ ( (CE₃)₂ SQ)₃ RuCl₃ ]⁻ [ (CH₃)₂ NH ₂]+ 3) Dichlorotetrakis{dimethylsulphoxide)ruthenium(II), (Me₂SO)₄fRuCl₂ 4) 1,3,7-Triraethyl-2,6-dioxypuriae hydrochloride dihydrate (caffeine hydrochloride dihydrate), CH₁₁C1N₄0₂-2H₂0 .5) 1-Acetyl-3-benzamido-2-keto-4- (2,3, 4, 6-tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-glucopyranosyloxy)-Δ³-pyrroline, C ₂₇H₃₀N₂O₁₃ The structures of compounds 1), 2), and 3) were determined by Patterson syntheses, compound 4) by centrosymmetric direct methods and compound 5) by non-centrosymmetric direct methods. All structures were then refined using full-matrix least-sguares procedures. The relevant crystal data for all five compounds can be found in Table A In the tungsten compound [1) the tungsten atom is seven-coordinate with a distorted capped octahedral environment, the capping group being a carbonyl. The capped face consists of the two remaining carbonyl groups and one of the arsenic atoms from the bidentate ligand. The uncapped face contains the two iodine atoms and the remaining arsenic. Crystal data for the five compounds examined atom. The structure of the ruthenium compound [ 2) ] consists of two crystallcgraphically non-equivalent anions in the asymmetric unit linked by hydrogen bonding via dimethylammonium cations. The coordination geometry about the structurally similar anions is essentially that of an octahedron with the DHSO ligands being bonded to Ru via the sulphur atoms. The co-ordination geometry about the ruthenium atom for compound 3) is essentially octahedral with cis chlorine atoms; Of the four DMSO ligands three are S-bonded and one is O-bonded, the O-bonded ligand being trans to a S-bonded ligand. For caffeine hydrochloride [ 4) ] the fused ring system is essentially planar and protonated at the 9-positioh. The crystal contains two types of hydrogen bonding involving 0-H...C1 and N-H...0 interactions. The structure of compound 5) consists of a pyranose ring in the chair conformation with the four 0-acetyl substituents in equatorial positions; the pyranose ring is connected to a planar pyrroline ring via a β-oxygen bridge.

description: Cross Reacting Material 197(CRM197) is a Diphteria toxin non toxic mutant that had shown anti-tumor activity in mice and humans. CRM197 is utilized as a specific inhibitor of heparin-binding epidermal growth factor (HB-EGF), that competes for the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), overexpressed in colorectal cancer and implicated in its progression.
We evaluated the effects of CRM197 on HT-29 human colon cancer cell line behaviour and, for CRM197 recognized ability to inhibit HB-EGF, its possible effects on EGFR activation.
In particular, while HT-29 does not show any reduction of viability after CRM197 treatment, or changes in cell cycle distribution, in EGFR localization or activation, they show a change in gene expression profile analyzed by microarray. This is the first study where the CRM197 treatment on HT-29 show the alteration of a specific and selected number of genes.

description: We assess the vulnerabilities of deep face recognition systems for images that falsify/spoof multiple identities simultaneously. We demonstrate that, by manipulating the deep feature representation extracted from a face image via imperceptibly small perturbations added at the pixel level using our proposed Universal Adversarial Spoofing Examples (UAXs), one can fool a face verification system into recognizing that the face image belongs to multiple different identities with a high success rate. One characteristic of the UAXs crafted with our method is that they are universal (identity-agnostic); they are successful even against identities not known in advance. For a certain deep neural network, we show that we are able to spoof almost all tested identities (99\%), including those not known beforehand (not included in training). Our results indicate that a multiple-identity attack is a real threat and should be taken into account when deploying face recognition systems.

description: We trap atoms in versatile two-dimensional (2D) arrays of optical potentials, prepare flexible 2D spin configurations, perform site-selective coherent manipulation, and demonstrate the implementation of simultaneous measurements of different system properties, such as dephasing and decoherence. This novel approach for the flexible manipulation of atomic quantum systems is based on the combination of 2D arrays of microlenses and 2D arrays of liquid crystal light modulators. It offers novel types of control for the investigation of quantum degenerate gases, quantum information processing, and quantum simulations.

description: Il lavoro cerca di valutare il possibile ruolo della Comunità Energetica del Sud Est Europa quale fattore di stabilita’ nell’area Balcanica. Il Trattato fondativo della Comunita’ assegna a questa l’obiettivo di condurre una cooperazione in campo energetico al fine diffondere istituzioni  e normative condivise, quali elementi di superamento del conflitto: tuttavia, sono molti gli ostacoli posti su questo cammino sia di natura interna alla regione che esterna, per l’influenza di fattori e poteri internazionali interessati all’area.
Il processo di transizione in molti dei paesi del quadrante non e’ ancora concluso e molti sono i nodi politici successivi ai processi di disgregazione della Federazione Jugoslava ancora presenti e non risolti.
I progetti di corridoi energetici portati avanti dall’Unione Europea, Stati Uniti e Russia, concentrano sui Balcani un interesse sempre alto e tali attenzioni potrebbero influire sui processi d’area e sulle scelte politiche da compiersi.
Sullo sfondo di tutto cio’ un altro importante fattore contribuisce alle dinamiche in corso: la crisi economica ha fatto sentire la sua presenza anche nella regione balcanica e questo crea importanti squilibri che devono essere valutati alla luce di processi di cooperazione quale quello della Comunita’ Energetica.
description: The aim of my thesis is to evaluate the possible role of the Energy Community South East Europe as a factor of stability in the Balkans. The founding Treaty gives to the Community  the goal to create and improve the cooperation in energy field to promote shared norms and institutions, as elements to overcome the conflict period: however, there are many obstacles on this path since domestic and external factors, due to the influence of international powers interested in the area.
Many Countries in the region have not concluded the transition process yet and there are many political problems following the processes of disintegration of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.
On the other hand, the European Union, United States and Russia, energy corridor projects planned in the region are focusing on the Balkans important interests on geo political point of  view.
These dynamics could affect the processes and policy choices in the area.
The background of the whole scenario is another important factor that is contributing to the dynamics in progress: the economic crisis has shown its presence even in the Balkan region and this creates significant imbalances that need to be evaluated on the light of processes of cooperation such as the Energy Community .

Minimizing the environmental impact of urea de-icer from airport runways
Creators: name: Ferguson, Keith Donald
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Urea finds common use at most airports in Canada where it is used as an anti-icer or de-icer. Urea contains up to 46% nitrogen which finds its way to the environment around the airport. Of the potential environmental problems, eutro-phication of lakes is of the most concern in British Columbia. Several methods for minimizing the impact of urea de-icer were considered. Urea can be hydrolyzed to ammonia by the common soil enzyme urease on an airport runway and this ammonia can volatilize to the atmosphere. The natural enzymatic activity on runway test sections was found to cause less than 0.5% of the applied urea to hydrolyze with no volatilization after 90 minutes, at room temperature. Supplemental urease was added to pyrex models to test the effect of various conditions on hydrolysis and volatilization. Thirty-two tests were performed at various temperatures (-4, 0, 4, 120C), urease additions (100, 200, 500, 750 mg/model), ice thicknesses (3, 5, 8 mm), urea applications (0.45, 0.9, 1.8 kg/70m2), urea types (Cominco Industrial and Forestry Grade, Sherritt Gordon Mines Industrial Grade) and solar radiations (50 and 100 BTU/h-ft2). An addition of 500 mg urease to the model cuased hydrolysis of 65% of the applied urea and volatilization of 1% at 12°C. Lower temperatures produced poorer results. Relative to the high costs and low efficiency, control of urea through hydrolysis and volatilization on an airport runway is impractical. Biological nitrification-dentrification, breakpoint chiorination, selective ion exchange, and air stripping have high nitrogen removal efficiencies under normal conditions, but are not suitable for winter airport operation. Passage of urea through soil can be an effective method for removal of this de-icing agent if the quantity of nitrate and urea leached to surface waters is low. Published data indicates that soil could be 75-90% efficient in controlling nitrogen loss to surface and ground waters. A reduction in the quantity of urea used on a runway would decrease the environmental impact. The yellow aura produced by the urea-Ehrlich reagent reaction, was used to monitor the movement of urea in 5 mm thick ice at -4°C. After 90 minutes from placement on the ice, the Cominco Forestry Grade aura covered the largest area. On a weight basis, however, the Sherritt Gordon Mines covered the largest area. This greater aura coverage is due to the smaller particle size of the Sherritt Gordon Mines pellets. If the size of the aura can be correlated with the ease of removal of ice from an airport runway, then the Sherritt Gordon Mines-Industrial Grade urea is more effective as a de-icer than either of the two Cominco grades under the conditions tested. Further research is recommended in optimizing the use of urea and soil treatment.

description: Project: "In vitro modelling of the structure and metabolism of the porcine caecal microbiota in response to β-mannan exposure" (FigShare link).Item description: GitHub repository containing processed data, result files, and the analysis pipeline in the form of an R Markdown report.Abstract: The intestinal microbiota plays a pivotal role in host health. Prebiotics and microbiota-directed fibres that target health-promoting microbes can potentially enhance the beneficial effects of the microbiota. β-mannans are fibres that may be utilised by a selection of beneficial bacteria, such as Roseburia, Faecalibacterium, and Prevotella species. Here, we conducted an in vitro fermentation experiment using porcine caecal material from an in vivo feeding trial with the inclusion of acetylated galactoglucomannan (AcGGM) from Norway spruce. We validated the effect of AcGGM on population abundance changes in the in vitro microbial community by comparison to an in vivo community. Functional data were obtained using metatranscriptomics to investigate gene expression of mannan-degrading enzymes during growth on AcGGM, and measurements of produced short-chain fatty acids. The in vitro fermentation identified several AcGGM-utilising taxa that significantly increased in abundance when grown on the substrate, while the same taxa were not observed to be more abundant in AcGGM-fed pigs. These taxa included several species with upregulated genes for mannan degradation that were previously unknown to utilise β-mannan.

description: In the wide range of data that the nutrition subject offers to the historical observation, this investigation focuses on one of the functions that food serves in the social context: that is, to signify cultural identity. In this context, we will analyse the ways in which industrially produced pasta has come to its status as one of the symbolic forms of twentieth-century Italian food, contributing to a sense of social identity that forms part of the process of nation-building developed during the XX century. The nature of the relationship between pasta and Italian food is analysed for a period of almost a century (1886-1984) through a variety of different sources: government enquiries, cookery books, gastronomic guides and menus of official dinners. The assemblage of  such documents in one study allows investigation of certain themes throughout a wide range of gastronomical cultures active within the national borders. In this way, links are made between the production, adoption, reception and dissemination of the ingredients and Italian Unification.This method has made it possible to restore one possible form of historical knowledge of twentieth-century gastronomy and of the experiences by which it was influenced.

description: This PhD thesis is related to the evolution of phenolic composition of olive fruit to demonstrate the relationship between the raw material sources and the compounds responsible for the healthy and sensory properties of virgin olive oil, and to investigate the mechanisms involved in the synthesis and/or in the degradation of the phenolic fraction. On the basis of phenolic compositions of twelve Italian olive cultivars (Bianchella, Canino, Coratina, Dolce di Andria, Dritta, Frantoio, Leccino, Moraiolo, Nocellara del Belice, Nocellara Etnea, Rosciola and Tendellone) analysed, some significative qualitative and quantitative differences were observed.
The main results were utilized, during the following analysis of the genetic expressions of olive cultivars, to determine the genes directly involved in the synthesis and the degradation of the phenolic fraction during the different fruit ripening stages. On the basis of the results about the evolution of phenolic compounds of olive drupes a research program aimed to identify the genes involved in the biosynthesis pathways of fruit secoiridoids, was developed by the CNR-Institute of Plant Genetics, Perugia.

description: Nowadays the development of sustainable polymers, with convenient properties to substitute the traditional petroleum-based materials, is one of the major issues for material science. The utilization of renewable resources as feedstock for biopolyesters is a challenging target.The research work described in the present thesis is strictly connected to these urgent necessities and is focused mainly in finding new biopolymers, in particular biopolyesters, which are obtainable from biomass and characterized by a wide range of properties, in order to potentially substitute polyolefins and aromatic polyesters (for example, poly(ethylene terephthalate))

description: We consider the complex eigenvalues of the induced spherical Ginibre ensemble with symplectic symmetry and establish the local universality of these point processes along the real axis. We derive scaling limits of all correlation functions at regular points both in the strong and weak non-unitary regimes as well as at the origin having spectral singularity. A key ingredient of our proof is a derivation of a differential equation satisfied by the correlation kernels of the associated Pfaffian point processes, thereby allowing us to perform asymptotic analysis.

description: Cleaning potato tubers from soil and plant residues after their digging from the soil is a topical problem in the industrial production of potatoes. Taking into account the fact that the cleaning spirals are positioned with overlapping and rotate in the same sense, the potato tuber that has landed on the surface of the spiral separator in the trough between two adjacent spirals will perform translational motion towards the output ends of the spirals. As a result of solving the said system of equations, the graphical relations between the values of the normal reactions and friction forces generated during the translation of the potato tuber along the mentioned spirals, on the one hand, and the design and kinematic parameters, on the other hand, based on the requirement of not damaging tubers when performing the said work process of transportation and cleaning, have been obtained. The limitations for the normal reactions and friction forces at the points of contact between the tuber and the surface of the cleaning spiral are set in accordance with the requirement that they do not exceed the force of scraping (damaging) the tuber’s external surface permissible for potato tubers. That has provided an opportunity to obtain the rational values of the design and kinematic parameters of the separator’s operating spirals, in particular, the value of the angular velocity of the rotating cleaning spirals as well as their radius and helix lead.

Behaviour of headed stud connections for precast concrete panels under monotonic and cycled shear loading
Creators: name: Neille, Donald Stewart
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The research on headed stud connections described in this dissertation forms a part of an overall objective of predicting the behaviour of precast concrete panel buildings under earthquake loads. Existing laboratory test data and current design procedures of headed stud connections are briefly reviewed. It is postulated that shear loads are transmitted via a connection to the surrounding concrete by three distinct mechanisms: 1. friction between faceplate and concrete 2. bearing of end of faceplate on concrete 3. interaction between studs and concrete Tests on laboratory models designed to isolate individual aspects of these mechanisms confirm that all three exist. Friction forces between faceplate and concrete are small in comparison with the remaining forces acting in a connection, particularly under cycled loading. Bearing of the end of the faceplate on concrete and interaction between studs and surrounding concrete are shown to be the main contributions to the total load carried by a connection. A simple analytical model is presented for the prediction of the ultimate shear load capacity of a connection and a computer algorithm is proposed for the prediction of the load versus deflection behaviour of a connection under both monotonic and cyclic conditions. Existence of the three mechanisms whereby a connection transfers applied shear forces to the surrounding concrete contradicts the shear friction equation which is currently used in the design of connections. The analytical equations developed in the investigation indicate that the strength of a connection is directly dependent upon the strength of the surrounding concrete, as opposed to the expression for shear friction, which does not contain concrete strength as a variable.

Classical limit of the Nelson model

description: Since the development of quantum mechanics it has been natural to analyze the connection between classical and quantum mechanical descriptions of physical systems. In particular one should expect that in some sense when quantum mechanical effects becomes negligible the system will behave like it is dictated by classical mechanics. One famous relation between classical and quantum theory is due to Ehrenfest. This result was later developed and put on firm mathematical foundations by Hepp. He proved that matrix elements of bounded functions of quantum observables between suitable coherents states (that depend on Planck's constant h) converge to classical values evolving according to the expected classical equations when h goes to zero. His results were later generalized by Ginibre and Velo to bosonic systems with infinite degrees of freedom and scattering theory.

In this thesis we study the classical limit of Nelson model, that describes non relativistic particles, whose evolution is dictated by Schrödinger equation, interacting with a scalar relativistic field, whose evolution is dictated by Klein-Gordon equation, by means of a Yukawa-type potential. The classical limit is a mean field and weak coupling limit. We proved that the transition amplitude of a creation or annihilation operator, between suitable coherent states, converges in the classical limit to the solution of the system of differential equations that describes the classical evolution of the theory. The quantum evolution operator converges to the evolution operator of fluctuations around the classical solution. Transition amplitudes of normal ordered products of creation and annihilation operators between coherent states converge to suitable products of the classical solutions. Transition amplitudes of normal ordered products of creation and annihilation operators between fixed particle states converge to an average of products of classical solutions, corresponding to different initial conditions.

description: We propose a method for synthesizing cardiac magnetic resonance (MR) images with plausible heart pathologies and realistic appearances for the purpose of generating labeled data for the application of supervised deep-learning (DL) training. The image synthesis consists of label deformation and label-to-image translation tasks. The former is achieved via latent space interpolation in a VAE model, while the latter is accomplished via a label-conditional GAN model. We devise three approaches for label manipulation in the latent space of the trained VAE model; i) \textbf{intra-subject synthesis} aiming to interpolate the intermediate slices of a subject to increase the through-plane resolution, ii) \textbf{inter-subject synthesis} aiming to interpolate the geometry and appearance of intermediate images between two dissimilar subjects acquired with different scanner vendors, and iii) \textbf{pathology synthesis} aiming to synthesize a series of pseudo-pathological synthetic subjects with characteristics of a desired heart disease. Furthermore, we propose to model the relationship between 2D slices in the latent space of the VAE prior to reconstruction for generating 3D-consistent subjects from stacking up 2D slice-by-slice generations. We demonstrate that such an approach could provide a solution to diversify and enrich an available database of cardiac MR images and to pave the way for the development of generalizable DL-based image analysis algorithms. We quantitatively evaluate the quality of the synthesized data in an augmentation scenario to achieve generalization and robustness to multi-vendor and multi-disease data for image segmentation.
