description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. 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.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

Long-range persistence in global surface temperatures explained by linear multi-box energy balance models

description: The temporal fluctuations in global mean surface temperature is an example of a geophysical quantity which can be described using the notions of long-range persistence and scale invariance/scaling, but this description has suffered from lack of a generally accepted physical explanation. Processes with these statistical signatures can arise from non-linear effects, for instance through cascade-like energy transfer in turbulent fluids, but they can also be produced by linear models with scale-invariant impulse-response functions. This paper demonstrates that on time scales from months to centuries, the scale-invariant impulse-response function of global surface temperature can be explained from simple linear multi-box energy balance models. This explanation describes both the scale invariance of the internal variability and the lack of a characteristic time scale of the response to external forcings. With parameters estimated from observational data, the climate response is approximately scaling in these models, even if the response function is not chosen to be scaling a priori. It is also demonstrated that the differences in scaling exponents for temperatures over land and for sea-surface temperatures can be reproduced by a version of the multi-box energy balance model with two distinct surface boxes.
Scaling characteristics of fractional diffusion processes in the presence of power-law distributed random noise

description: We present results of the numerical simulations and the scaling characteristics of one-dimensional random fluctuations with heavy tailed probability distribution functions. Assuming that the distribution function of the random fluctuations obeys Lévy statistics with a power-law scaling exponent, we investigate the fractional diffusion equation in the presence of $μ$-stable Lévy noise. e study the scaling properties of the global width and two point correlation functions, we then compare the analytical and numerical results for the growth exponent $β$ and the roughness exponent $α$. We also investigate the fractional Fokker-Planck equation for heavy-tailed random fluctuations. We show that the fractional diffusion processes in the presence of $μ$-stable Lévy noise display special scaling properties in the probability distribution function (PDF). Finally, we study numerically the scaling properties of the heavy-tailed random fluctuations by using the diffusion entropy analysis. This method is based on the evaluation of the Shannon entropy of the PDF generated by the random fluctuations, rather than on the measurement of the global width of the process. We apply the diffusion entropy analysis to extract the growth exponent $β$ and to confirm the validity of our numerical analysis. The proposed fractional langevin equation can be used for modeling, analysis and characterization of experimental data, such as solar flare fluctuations, turbulent heat flow and etc.

description: This document focuses on the description of the tools developed starting from the prototypes initially provided
 in deliverable D5.2. Initial requirements, design and prototypes have been updated and extended, and use cases
 have been reported to support users in approaching the developed tools.
 In particular the deliverable starts with highlighting the role of simulation in the GreenCharge framework, and
 the importance of providing instruments to calculate and graphically visualize KPIs, in relation to evaluation
 activities carried out within the GreenCharge project. These tools acquire even more importance if we consider
 the possibility to simulate scenarios involving larger and more diverse energy smart neighbourhoods than
 realized in the pilots, based partly on data collected by the pilots and partly on data collected in other contexts.
 Models used to analytically represent different appliances, including energy consuming, producing and storing
 devices, are provided in this deliverable, explaining how they are used to configure and customize the
 simulation facility.
 The overall architecture of the GreenCharge Simulator is provided, together with a description of its
 components. Particular emphasis is put on optimisers' interfaces and approaches.
 Interaction between the GreenCharge Simulator and the GreenCharge Energy Management Systems (EMS) is
 provided through an interaction protocol, completely described in terms of exchanged messages together with
 usage examples.
 The deliverable presents the Simulation and KPI Calculator and Visualization tools by focusing on both the
 offered functionalities and provided GUIs.
 Graphical Interfaces are indeed a relevant part of the software description, as they provide a facilitated point
 of access for users and are thus described in details to provide a quick reference user guide. However, pointers
 to online guides are also provided, so that users have a complete reference manual at their disposal.
 The document explains how the simulation tool can be deployed, configured, and customized, by following a
 use case scenario already presented in D5.2.
 Since the current Deliverable is focused on the development of the Simulation Tool, of the KPI Calculation
 and Visualization tools, and of the Optimisers, no further details are provided regarding simulated tasks and
 models, unless necessary to describe the design of the aforementioned tools and their components.

description: We present a simple bottom-up approach via an incoherent unpolarized illumination and the choice of a solvent-droplet-induced-dewetting method to photoinducenano doughnuts on the surface of azopolymer thin films. We demonstrate that doughnut-shaped nanostructures can be formed and tailored with a wide range of typical sizes, thus providing a rich field of applications using surface photo-patterning. Furthermore, due to the presence of highly photoactive azobenzene derivative in the material, illumination of these nanostructures by a polarized laser light shows the possibility of a further growth and reshaping opening the way for fundamental studies of size-dependent scaling laws of optical properties and possible fabrication of nano-reactor or nano-trap patterns

description: Ultrasound Atomic Force Microscopy (US-AFM) has been used for subsurface imaging of nanostructures. The contact stiffness variations have been suggested as the origin of the image contrast. Therefore, to analyze the image contrast, the local changes in the contact stiffness due to the presence of subsurface features should be calculated. So far, only static simulations have been conducted to analyze the local changes in the contact stiffness and, consequently, the contrast in US-AFM. Such a static approach does not fully represent the real US-AFM experiment, where an ultrasound wave is launched either into the sample or at the tip, which modulates the contact stiffness. This is a time-dependent nonlinear dynamic problem rather than a static and stationary one. This letter presents dynamic 3D ultrasound analysis of contact stiffness in US-AFM (in contrast to static analysis) to realistically predict the changes in contact stiffness and thus the changes in the subsurface image contrast. The modulation frequency also influences the contact stiffness variations and, thus, the image contrast. The three-dimensional time-dependent ultrasound analysis will greatly aid in the contrast optimization of subsurface nanoimaging with US-AFM.

 Females (n = 6). L = 1.48-1.85 mm; a = 28-34; b = 5.2-6.0; c = 32-36; c’ = 1.7-1.8; V = 49-52%.
Body moderately slender, mostly C-shaped upon fixation. Cuticle thin and apparently smooth. Lip region separated by a depression, 11-13 µm wide; lips amalgamated. Body at posterior end of oesophagus 3.3-4.0 times as wide as head. Odontostyle small and thin, 12-13 µm, about as long as labial width; odontophore simple. Oesophagus 285-310 µm long, expanded at 62-64%. Dorsal nucleus located at 70-74% of oesophagus length or at 12- 14% of entire length of body. AS1 = 21-25%, AS2 = 28- 33%. Posterior pair of nuclei unusually large and located far from posterior margin of cylindrus: PS1 = 48-54%, PS2 = 48-56%. Glandularium 84-94 µm long.
Pre-rectum as long as 2.3-3.3 anal body diameters, rectum as long as or slightly longer than the latter diameter. Vulva transverse with heavily sclerotized inner lips, vagina 32-34 µm long, occupying more than half body diameter. Female genital tract well developed and long, Gonads 4.8-6.4 times as long as mid-body width, or occupying 15-18% of total length of body. Tail conoid, ventrally curved, 45-52 µm long, only 3% of total length of body.
 On the basis of the original specimens of Thorne (1939) and the freshly collected Spanish and Romanian specimens, good re-descriptions are due to Guerrero and Peña-Santiago (2007), Guerrero et al. (2007), and Ciobanu et al. (2009). According to them, H. brevidentatus is closely related to H. morgensis (Loof, 1989) Andrássy, 2009, but differs from the latter by the more anteriorly located dorsal oesophageal nucleus (67-72 vs. 80-82%), and the strongly sclerotized vulval lips. The Albanian specimens fit the descriptions of the Spanish/Romanian authors, except for the smooth cuticle (vs. faintly striated), the shape of the vulval sclerotization and the very long gonads. In the length of the body they are closer to the American specimens (1.45-1.70 mm), but in the length of the odontostyle to the European ones (1.15-1.30 µm, while 1.45-1.70 µm in American specimens).
 Distribution. Heterodorus brevidentatus, a rather rare representative of the genus, has hitherto been recorded from Europe (Hungary, Romania, Italy, Spain) and North America (United States). The present specimens were found in mosses at locality No. 16b.

description: The aim of this study is to critically analyse the reasons why NHS staff go to a workplace library to carry out activities which are not specifically related to the library. Qualitative one-to-one interviews were conducted with a convenience sample of library users to discover themes around usage at Croydon Health Services NHS Trust. Context
 Research into public libraries suggests that library use supports well-being and social capital. There is little literature relating to NHS library use and well-being or social capital. Generally, research into NHS libraries focuses on the services provided e.g. a clinical librarian service or access to online resources. Many measures of usage are quantitative rather than qualitative metrics. However, public bodies have recently published qualitative value measures of public library use. A similar qualitative measure could be used to critically evaluate usage of the NHS workplace library.
 Results
 It emerged from the study results that participants found the workplace library positively impacted on their wellbeing and was used as a third space in the workplace, in addition to providing a full library service. Respondents valued the quiet, non-hierarchical and non-judgmental environment.

description: We calculate the radiative heat transfer between two identical metallic one-dimensional lamellar gratings. To this aim we present and exploit a modification to the widely-used Fourier modal method, known as adaptive spatial resolution, based on a stretch of the coordinate associated to the periodicity of the grating. We first show that this technique dramatically improves the rate of convergence when calculating the heat flux, allowing to explore smaller separations. We then present a study of heat flux as a function of the grating height, highlighting a remarkable amplification of the exchanged energy, ascribed to the appearance of spoof-plasmon modes, whose behavior is also spectrally investigated. Differently from previous works, our method allows us to explore a range of grating heights extending over several orders of magnitude. By comparing our results to recent studies we find a consistent quantitative disagreement with some previously obtained results going up to 50\%. In some cases, this disagreement is explained in terms of an incorrect connection between the reflection operators of the two gratings.

description: Bronchospasm compresses the bronchial epithelium, and this compressive stress has been implicated in asthma pathogenesis. However, the molecular mechanisms by which this compressive stress alters pathways relevant to disease are not well understood. Using air-liquid interface cultures of primary human bronchial epithelial cells derived from non-asthmatic donors and asthmatic donors, we applied a compressive stress and then used a network approach to map resulting changes in the molecular interactome. In cells from non-asthmatic donors, compression by itself was sufficient to induce inflammatory, late repair, and fibrotic pathways. Remarkably, this molecular profile of non-asthmatic cells after compression recapitulated the profile of asthmatic cells before compression. Together, these results show that even in the absence of any inflammatory stimulus, mechanical compression alone is sufficient to induce an asthma-like molecular signature.

description: We report the preparation of the interface between graphene and the strong Rashba-split BiAg$_2$ surface alloy and investigatigation of its structure as well as the electronic properties by means of scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations. Upon evaluation of the quasiparticle interference patterns the unpertrubated linear dispersion for the $π$ band of $n$-doped graphene is observed. Our results also reveal the intact nature of the giant Rashba-split surface states of the BiAg$_2$ alloy, which demonstrate only a moderate downward energy shift upon the presence of graphene. This effect is explained in the framework of density functional theory by an inward relaxation of the Bi atoms at the interface and subsequent delocalisation of the wave function of the surface states. Our findings demonstrate a realistic pathway to prepare a graphene protected giant Rashba-split BiAg$_2$ for possible spintronic applications.

description: Background: Genetic variants in the chromosomal region 17q21 are consistently associated with asthma. However, mechanistic studies have not yet linked any of the associated variants to a function that could influence asthma, and as a result, the identity of the asthma gene(s) remains elusive. Objectives: We sought to identify and characterize functional variants in the 17q21 locus. Methods: We used the Exome Aggregation Consortium browser to identify coding (amino acid–changing) variants in the 17q21 locus. We obtained asthma association measures for these variants in both the Genetic Epidemiology Research in Adult Health and Aging (GERA) cohort (16,274 cases and 38,269 matched controls) and the EVE Consortium study (5,303 asthma cases and 12,560 individuals). Gene expression and protein localization were determined by quantitative RT-PCR and fluorescence immunostaining, respectively. Molecular and cellular studies were performed to determine the functional effects of coding variants. Results: Two coding variants (rs2305480 and rs11078928) of the gasdermin B (GSDMB) gene in the 17q21 locus were associated with lower asthma risk in both GERA (odds ratio, 0.92; P = 1.01 × 10−6) and EVE (odds ratio, 0.85; joint PEVE = 1.31 × 10−13). In GERA, rs11078928 had a minor allele frequency (MAF) of 0.45 in unaffected (nonasthmatic) controls and 0.43 in asthma cases. For European Americans in EVE, the MAF of rs2305480 was 0.45 for controls and 0.39 for cases; for all EVE subjects, the MAF was 0.32 for controls and 0.27 for cases. GSDMB is highly expressed in differentiated airway epithelial cells, including the ciliated cells. We found that, when the GSDMB protein is cleaved by inflammatory caspase-1 to release its N-terminal fragment, potent pyroptotic cell death is induced. The splice variant rs11078928 deletes the entire exon 6, which encodes 13 amino acids in the critical N-terminus, and abolishes the pyroptotic activity of the GSDMB protein. Conclusions: Our study identified a functional asthma variant in the GSDMB gene of the 17q21 locus and implicates GSDMB-mediated epithelial cell pyroptosis in pathogenesis.

description: Clogging raises as the principal phenomenon during many evacuation processes of pedestrians in a panic situation. As people push to escape from danger, compression forces may increase to harming levels. Many individuals might fall down, while others will try to dodge the fallen people, or, simply pass through them. We studied the dynamics of the crowd for these situations, in the context of the "social force model". We modeled the unconscious (fallen) pedestrians as inanimate bodies that can be dodged (or not) by the surrounding individuals. We found that new morphological structures appear along the evacuating crowd. Under specific conditions, these structures may enhance the evacuation performance. The pedestrian's willings for either dodging or passing through the unconscious individuals play a relevant role in the overall evacuation performance.

description: There are three ways to conceptualize entropy: entropy as an extensive thermodynamic quantity of physical systems (Clausius, Boltzmann, Gibbs), entropy as a measure for information production of ergodic sources (Shannon), and entropy as a means for statistical inference on multinomial Bernoulli processes (Jaynes maximum entropy principle). Even though these notions are fundamentally different concepts, the functional form of the entropy for thermodynamic systems in equilibrium, for ergodic sources in information theory, and for independent sampling processes in statistical systems, is degenerate, $H(p)=-\sum_i p_i\log p_i$. For many complex systems, which are typically history-dependent, non-ergodic and non-multinomial, this is no longer the case. Here we show that for such processes the three entropy concepts lead to different functional forms of entropy. We explicitly compute these entropy functionals for three concrete examples. For Polya urn processes, which are simple self-reinforcing processes, the source information rate is $S_{\rm IT}=\frac{1}{1-c}\frac1N \log N$, the thermodynamical (extensive) entropy is $(c,d)$-entropy, $S_{\rm EXT}=S_{(c,0)}$, and the entropy in the maxent principle (MEP) is $S_{\rm MEP}(p)=-\sum_i \log p_i$. For sample space reducing (SSR) processes, which are simple path-dependent processes that are associated with power law statistics, the information rate is $S_{\rm IT}=1+ \frac12 \log W$, the extensive entropy is $S_{\rm EXT}=H(p)$, and the maxent result is $S_{\rm MEP}(p)=H(p/p_1)+H(1-p/p_1)$. Finally, for multinomial mixture processes, the information rate is given by the conditional entropy $\langle H\rangle_f$, with respect to the mixing kernel $f$, the extensive entropy is given by $H$, and the MEP functional corresponds one-to-one to the logarithm of the mixing kernel.

description: The purpose of the workshop was to identify still obscure or novel cellular components of the lung, to determine cell function in lung development and in health that impacts on disease, and to decide promising avenues for future research to extract and phenotype these cells. Since robust technologies are now available to identify, sort, purify, culture, and phenotype cells, progress is now within sight to unravel the origins and functional capabilities of lung cells in developmental stages and in disease. The Workshop's agenda was to first discuss the lung's embryologic development, including progenitor and stem cells, and then assess the functional and structural cells in three main compartments of the lung: (1) airway cells in bronchial and bronchiolar epithelium and bronchial glands (basal, secretory, ciliated, Clara, and neuroendocrine cells); (2) alveolar unit cells (Type 1 cells, Type 2 cells, and fibroblasts in the interstitium); and (3) pulmonary vascular cells (endothelial cells from different vascular structures, smooth muscle cells, and adventitial fibroblasts). The main recommendations were to: (1) characterize with better cell markers, both surface and nonsurface, the various cells within the lung, including progenitor cells and stem cells; (2) obtain more knowledge about gene expression in specific cell types in health and disease, which will provide insights into biological and pathologic processes; (3) develop more methodologies for cell culture, isolation, sorting, co-culture, and immortalization; and (4) promote tissue banks to facilitate the procurement of tissue from normal and from diseased lung for analysis at all levels.

description: We have recently studied theoretical constraints on the parameters of a 2HDM augmented with a color-octet scalar. In this paper we consider the consequences of requiring the model to remain valid up to very high energy scales, such as the GUT scale. The acceptable region of parameter space is reduced when one insists on vacuum stability, perturbative unitarity and the absence of Landau poles below a given scale. As the scale to which we require the model to be valid is increased, the acceptable region of parameter space for the 2HDM sector is reduced in such a way that it approaches the alignment limit, $\cos(β-α)\to 0$, and the masses of $H^0$, $A$ and $H^\pm$ are pushed closer to each other. The parameters of the color octet sector are also restricted to an increasingly smaller region.

description: Die gegenwärtigen digitalen Transformationen der Wissenschafts- und Publikationslandschaft stellen Bibliotheken vor die Herausforderung, sich in einem hochdynamischen, unkalkulierbaren Umfeld zu orientieren und sich als Organisationen entsprechend zu entwickeln. Wie das möglich ist, wird in der Arbeit mit Rückgriff auf die soziologische Systemtheorie diskutiert. Entsprechend wird ein doppeltes Erkenntnisinteresse verfolgt: Zum einen geht es darum, die Systemtheorie als bibliothekswissenschaftliche Heuristik zu konturieren und den Gegenstand Bibliothek im Kontext der Systemtheorie zu bestimmen. Zum anderen werden systemtheoretische Beobachtungen auf die bibliothekarische Organisationsentwicklung angewendet und konkrete Maßnahmen skizziert, die dazu beitragen können, Bibliotheken dynamischer und anpassungsfähiger an unkalkulierbare Umwelten zu machen.

description: We used Griffonia (bandeiraea) simplicifolia I (GS I) lectin and flow cytometry to isolate subsets of rat tracheal epithelial cells based on the presence or absence of cell surface alpha-galactosyl end groups. These fractions were designated GS I-positive and -negative, respectively. Ninety-eight percent of the cells in the GS I-positive fraction expressed cell surface alpha-galactosyl end groups; 95% had immunocytochemically detectable keratin 14-related protein (a basal cell marker) and 98% lacked alcian blue-periodic acid-Schiff (AB-PAS)-stained cytoplasmic granules. More than 90% of the GS I-positive cells had a high nuclear-to-cytoplasm ratio, had tonofilaments, and lacked organelles characteristic of other differentiated cell types; they were thus classified as basal cells. In bioassays, the GS I-positive fraction had a colony-forming efficiency greater than or equal to that of native tracheal cell suspensions, and the cells were able to repopulate denuded tracheal grafts with ciliated, secretory, and basal cells. More than 99% of the cells in the GS I-negative fraction lacked cell surface alpha-galactosyl end groups, 98% did not stain for keratin 14-related protein, 54% had significant numbers of AB-PAS-stained cytoplasmic granules, and 16% were identified as ciliated cells. The GS I-negative fraction had a lower colony-forming efficiency than the GS I-positive fraction but, it too, was able to repopulate denuded tracheal grafts with a complete mucociliary epithelium. These results show that both GS I-positive and -negative cells had the potential to proliferate and differentiate into the major tracheal cell types.

description: Rationale: Cystic fibrosis (CF) airways disease produces a mucoobstructive lung phenotype characterized by airways mucus plugging, epithelial mucous cell metaplasia/hyperplasia, chronic infection, and inflammation. Simultaneous biochemical and functional in vivo studies of mucin synthesis and secretion from CF airways are not available. In vitro translational models may quantitate differential CF versus normal mucin and fluid secretory responses to infectious/inflammatory stimuli. Objectives: We tested the hypothesis that CF airways exhibit defective epithelial fluid, but not mucin, secretory responses to bacterial/inflammatory host products. Methods: Well-differentiated primary human bronchial epithelial cultures were exposed to supernatant from mucopurulent material (SMM) from human CF airways as a test of bacterial/inflammatory host product stimulus. Human bronchial epithelia (HBE) with normal CF transmembrane conductance regulator function were compared with DF508/DF508 CF HBE. Measurements and Main Results: Acute (up to 60 min) SMM exposure promoted mucin secretion, but mucins were degraded by the proteolytic enzymes present in SMM. Chronic SMM exposure induced upregulation of mucin synthesis and storage and generated absolute increases in basal and stimulated mucin release in normal and CF cultures. These responses were similar in normal and CF cultures. In contrast, SMM produced a coordinated CF transmembrane conductance regulator-mediated Cl secretory response in normal HBE, but not in CF HBE. The absence of the fluid secretory response in CF produced quantitatively more dehydrated mucus. Conclusions: Our study reveals the interplay between regulation of mucin and fluid secretion rates in inflamed versus noninflamed conditions and why a hyperconcentrated mucus is produced in CF airways.
Deflection and Rotation of CMEs from Active Region 11158

description: Between the 13 and 16 of February 2011 a series of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) erupted from multiple polarity inversion lines within active region 11158. For seven of these CMEs we use the Graduated Cylindrical Shell (GCS) flux rope model to determine the CME trajectory using both Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO) extreme ultraviolet (EUV) and coronagraph images. We then use the Forecasting a CME's Altered Trajectory (ForeCAT) model for nonradial CME dynamics driven by magnetic forces, to simulate the deflection and rotation of the seven CMEs. We find good agreement between the ForeCAT results and the reconstructed CME positions and orientations. The CME deflections range in magnitude between 10 degrees and 30 degrees. All CMEs deflect to the north but we find variations in the direction of the longitudinal deflection. The rotations range between 5\mydeg and 50\mydeg with both clockwise and counterclockwise rotations occurring. Three of the CMEs begin with initial positions within 2 degrees of one another. These three CMEs all deflect primarily northward, with some minor eastward deflection, and rotate counterclockwise. Their final positions and orientations, however, respectively differ by 20 degrees and 30 degrees. This variation in deflection and rotation results from differences in the CME expansion and radial propagation close to the Sun, as well as the CME mass. Ultimately, only one of these seven CMEs yielded discernible in situ signatures near Earth, despite the active region facing near Earth throughout the eruptions. We suggest that the differences in the deflection and rotation of the CMEs can explain whether each CME impacted or missed the Earth.
