description: Context. TypeState-Oriented Programming (TSOP) is a paradigm intended to help developers in the implementation and use of mutable objects whose public interface depends on their private state. Under this paradigm, well-typed programs are guaranteed to conform with the protocol of the objects they use. Inquiry. Previous works have investigated TSOP for both sequential and concurrent objects. However, an important difference between the two settings still remains. In a sequential setting, a well-typed program either progresses indefinitely or terminates eventually. In a concurrent setting, protocol conformance is no longer enough to avoid deadlocks, a situation in which the execution of the program halts because two or more objects are involved in mutual dependencies that prevent any further progress. Approach. In this work, we put forward a refinement of TSOP for concurrent objects guaranteeing that well-typed programs not only conform with the protocol of the objects they use, but are also deadlock free. The key ingredients of the type system are behavioral types, used to specify and enforce object protocols, and dependency relations, used to represent abstract descriptions of the dependencies between objects and detect circularities that might cause deadlocks. Knowledge. The proposed approach stands out for two features. First, the approach is fully compositional and therefore scalable: the objects of a large program can be type checked in isolation; deadlock freedom of an object composition solely depends on the types of the objects being composed; any modification/refactoring of an object that does not affect its public interface does not affect other objects either. Second, we provide the first deadlock analysis technique for join patterns, a high-level concurrency abstraction with which programmers can express complex synchronizations in a succinct and declarative form. Grounding. We detail the proposed typing discipline for a core programming language blending concurrent objects, asynchronous message passing and join patterns. We prove that the type system is sound and give non-trivial examples of programs that can be successfully analyzed. A Haskell implementation of the type system that demonstrates the feasibility of the approach is publicly available. Importance. The static analysis technique described in this work can be used to certify programs written in a core language for concurrent TSOP with proven correctness guarantees. This is an essential first step towards the integration and application of the technique in a real-world developer toolchain, making programming of such systems more productive and less frustrating.

description: We formulate criteria for identification of the nuclear tetrahedral and octahedral symmetries and illustrate for the first time their possible realization in a Rare Earth nucleus 152Sm. We use realistic nuclear mean-field theory calculations with the phenomenological macroscopic-microscopic method, the Gogny-Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov approach and the general point-group theory considerations to guide the experimental identification method as illustrated on published experimental data. Following group-theory the examined symmetries imply the existence of exotic rotational bands on whose properties the spectroscopic identification criteria are based. These bands may contain simultaneously states of even and odd spins, of both parities and parity doublets at well defined spins. In the exact-symmetry limit those bands involve no E2-transitions. We show that coexistence of tetrahedral and octahedral deformations is essential when calculating the corresponding energy minima and surrounding barriers and that it has a characteristic impact on the rotational bands. The symmetries in question imply the existence of long-lived shape-isomers and, possibly, new waiting point nuclei -- impacting the nucleosynthesis processes in astrophysics -- and an existence of 16-fold degenerate particle-hole excitations. Specifically designed experiments which aim at strengthening the identification arguments are briefly discussed.

description: Bile acids are often present in the lower airways of people with cystic fibrosis and other respiratory distress diseases, probably resulting from the aspiration of gastroesophageal refluxate. The effects of bile acids on airway epithelium ion transport function have not yet been investigated. The effects of the unconjugated secondary bile acids, DCA and UDCA, plus the taurine conjugate of DCA, TDCA, on basal ion transport and carbachol (CCh)- or forskolin (Fsk)- induced Cl' secretion was investigated in Calu-3 airway epithelial cells grown in an air-liquid interface and mounted in Ussing chambers. Electrogenic transepithelial ion transport was measured as short-circuit current (lsc)- These results show that acute (5 min) apical treatment with DCA had no effect on basal lsc but decreased CCh- stimulated lsc by 43%. UDCA had no acute effect on lsc in Calu-3 cells. In contrast, 24 hr apical treatment with DCA or UDCA increased CCh- stimulated lsc by 36% and 65% respectively and 24 hr UDCA treatment also attenuated subsequent Fsk responses by 17%. Furthermore, basolateral TDCA treatment of Calu-3 cells stimulated basal lsc by 39% but had no effect on the lsc responses induced by CCh or Fsk treatment. The lsc responses to TDCA were abolished in Cl'-free Krebs solution indicating that TDCA modulates Cl'secretion. TDCA had no chronic effect on lsc in Calu-3 cells. Acute treatment with TDCA produced a 32% increase in CFTR lsc that was abolished by pre-treatment with CFTRjnhi72- It was also found that TDCA increases Cl' secretion through calcium-activated chloride (CaCC) channels by 18%. In addition, when Na+/K+ ATPase generated currents were measured in Ussing chambers, acute treatment with TDCA increased Na+/K+ pump activity by 13%, while pre-treatment with ouabain eliminated this effect. Acute treatment with TDCA resulted in a rapid 88% increase in intracellular calcium mobilization, which was abolished in Ca2+ -free buffer indicating that TDCA induced Ca2+ influx into the cell. In addition, TDCA increased basal cAMP levels and PKA activation. Preliminary data from TGR5 knockdown studies suggest that TGR5 is the membrane receptor involved in TDCA induced Cl' secretion. In summary, this thesis shows for the first time that low concentrations of bile acids can modulate Cl' secretion in airway epithelial cells and this effect is dependent upon both the duration and sidedness of exposure to the bile acid.

description: The character of the first galaxies at redshifts z > 10 strongly depends on their level of pre-enrichment, which is in turn determined by the rate of primordial star formation prior to their assembly. In order for the first galaxies to remain metal-free, star formation in minihaloes must be highly suppressed, most likely by H2-dissociating Lyman-Werner (LW) radiation. We show that the build-up of such a strong LW background is hindered by two effects. Firstly, the level of the LW background is self-regulated, being produced by the Population III (Pop III) star formation which it, in turn, suppresses. Secondly, the high opacity to LW photons which is built up in the relic H II regions left by the first stars acts to diminish the global LW background. Accounting for a self-regulated LW background, we estimate a lower limit for the rate of Pop III star formation in minihaloes at z > 15. Further, we simulate the formation of a 'first galaxy' with virial temperature T > 10^4 K and total mass > 10^8 M_Sun at z > 10, and find that complete suppression of previous Pop III star formation is unlikely, with stars of > 100 M_Sun (Pop III.1) and > 10 M_Sun (Pop III.2) likely forming. Finally, we discuss the implications of these results for the nature of the first galaxies, which may be observed by future missions such as the James Webb Space Telescope.

description: Optical spectropolarimetry of the luminous IRAS source FSC10214$+$4724 (z$=2.286$) reveals that the strong (\twid17\%) linear polarization detected by Lawrence \etal\/ is shared by both the narrow UV emission lines and the underlying continuum. This observation and the brightness of the source rule out synchrotron emission and dichroic extinction by dust as the polarizing mechanism, leaving scattering as the only plausible cause of the polarized emission. The narrowness of the lines requires that the scatterers be dust grains or cool ($<1.6\times$10$^4$~K) electrons. We can recover the spectrum that is incident on the scattering medium provided we make some reasonable assumptions regarding the source geometry. The scattered UV spectrum has a power law index $α$~ of $-1.2 \pm 0.6$ ($F_ν\proptoν^α$), steeper than what would be expected from a young burst of star formation, but similar to many AGN.

description: La scrittura scritta o metascrittura traccia una sottile linea rossa nell’opera di Italo Svevo: una linea serpeggiante e frammentata, ma sempre agevolmente identificabile. Fragile e allo stesso tempo iperbolico compromesso tra la scena pubblica e la scena privata, la scrittura rivendica la propria appartenenza ora all’una ora all’altra scena, con modalità che di volta in volta spaziano tra la semplice asserzione, l’infrazione clamorosa, la bugia inconsapevole, il compromesso ironico. Questo saggio indaga le fasi successive dell’evoluzione della metascrittura di Svevo, mostrando come egli riesca a mettere in scena estensivamente e nel modo più clamoroso la scrittura solo quando essa, grazie all’ultima controfigura dell’autore (Zeno Cosini), è stata messa in salvo da ogni possibile relazione con la letteratura.
description: The written writing or “metawriting” marks a subtle red line in Italo Svevo’s literature: a twisted and fragmented line but always easily visible. As a fragile and hyperbolic compromise between the public scene and the prinate one, writing is part of the two in different ways, sometimes as simple assertation, clamorous violation, unconscious lie, or ironical compromise. The presnet study investigates Svevo’s metawriting, by showing how he managedto enact writing, extensively and the most clamorous way, only when it has been savwed from every possible relationship with literature thanks to the last configuration of the author (Zeno Cosini).

description: In this talk I review the `puzzles' associated with the fermion mass matrices and describe some recent attempts to resolve them, at least partially. Models which attempt to explain the observed mass hierarchy as arising from radiative corrections are discussed. I then scrutinize possible inter--relations among quark and lepton masses and the mixing angles in the context of grand unified theories. It is argued that the absence of CP violation in the strong interaction sector (the strong CP problem) may also have its origin in the structure of the quark mass matrices; such a resolution does not invoke approximate global $U(1)$ symmetries resulting in the axion. Arguments in favor of tiny neutrino masses are summarized (the solar neutrino puzzle, atmospheric neutrino problem) and ways to accommodate them naturally are described.

Generalized Analysis of Elastic Wave Dispersion Asymmetries in Moving Periodic Media

description: This work presents a generalized physical interpretation of unconventional dispersion asymmetries associated moving elastic solids. By shifting the notion from systems with time-variant material fields to physically traveling materials, the newly adopted paradigm provides an eloquent take on the dispersion problem and, in the process, highlights discrepancies between both schemes. Equations governing the motion of an elastic rod with a prescribed moving velocity observed from a stationary reference frame are used to predict propagation patterns and asymmetries in wave velocities induced as a result of the induced linear momentum bias. Three distinct scenarios corresponding to a moving rod with a constant modulus, a spatially varying one, and one that varies in space and time are presented. These cases are utilized to extract and interpret correlations pertaining to directional velocities, dispersion patterns, as well as nature of band gaps between moving periodic media and their stationary counterparts with time-traveling material properties. A linear vertical shear transformation is derived and utilized to thoroughly neutralize the effect of the moving velocity on the resultant dispersion characteristics. Finally, dispersion contours associated with the transient response of a finite moving medium are used to validate the entirety of the presented framework.

description: We consider the Klein-Gordon equation in generalized higher-dimensional Kerr-NUT-(A)dS spacetime without imposing any restrictions on the functional parameters characterizing the metric. We establish commutativity of the second-order operators constructed from the Killing tensors found in arXiv:hep-th/0612029 and show that these operators, along with the first-order operators originating from the Killing vectors, form a complete set of commuting symmetry operators (i.e., integrals of motion) for the Klein-Gordon equation. Moreover, we demonstrate that the separated solutions of the Klein-Gordon equation obtained in arXiv:hep-th/0611245 are joint eigenfunctions for all of these operators. We also present explicit form of the zero mode for the Klein-Gordon equation with zero mass. In the semiclassical approximation we find that the separated solutions of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation for geodesic motion are also solutions for a set of Hamilton-Jacobi-type equations which correspond to the quadratic conserved quantities arising from the above Killing tensors.

description: We study the Borel subsets of the plane that can be made closed by refining the Polish topology on the real line. These sets are called potentially closed. We first compare Borel subsets of the plane using products of continuous functions. We show the existence of a perfect antichain made of minimal sets among non-potentially closed sets. We apply this result to graphs, quasi-orders and partial orders. We also give a non-potentially closed set minimum for another notion of comparison. Finally, we show that we cannot have injectivity in the Kechris-Solecki-Todorcevic dichotomy about analytic graphs.

description: Camillo Boito partecipò in pieno alla stagione della Scapigliatura e celebrò l’unità delle arti non meno del fratello Arrigo, di Carlo Dossi, di Emilio Praga e di altri noti autori coevi. Se Boito non dimentica di attribuire il titolo di «poeta» ai pittori Telemaco Signorini e Tranquillo Cremona, il suo tentativo di trovare una convergenza unitaria fra le arti si innerva nella sua professione di architetto e di protagonista del neomedievalismo lombardo. Una non comune raffinatezza contraddistingueva la prosa di Boito sia in veste critica e didattica sia in veste letteraria, come si può ben vedere sia nei suoi scritti tecnici sia, naturalmente, nelle Storielle vane e soprattutto in Senso. Quarant’anni dopo la morte di Camillo Boito sarebbe stato Luchino Visconti a misurarsi con l’adattamento cinematografico della novella e proprio come lo scrittore, anche il regista avrebbe scelto un linguaggio ricchissimo di citazioni e di richiami ad una rinnovata sintesi tra le arti.
description: Camillo Boito was actively involved in the vague of the Scapigliatura and he celebrated the communion of hamanistic art sas his brother Arrigo, Carlo Dossi, Emilio Praga and other coeval writers also did. Boito conferred the role of «poet» to painters Telemaco Signorini and Tranquillo Cremona, but his goal to find a convergence between arts is especially well-established in his own professional work sas architect and protagonist of the Lombard Neo-Medievalism, Boito’s prose is refined and graceful both in critical anddidactic form as well as in literature. It can be easily seen in his scientific papers and, of course, in ‘Storielle vane’ and in ‘Senso’ above all. Forty years after Boito’s death, Luchino Visconti shoot the screen adaption of ‘Senso’, and as well as the writer, he selected a cinematographic language rich in quotations and references to a renewed synthesis of the arts.

description: The rotational spectrum of silyl isocyanide (SiH$_3$NC), an isomer of the well studied silyl cyanide (SiH$_3$CN), has been detected in the laboratory in a supersonic molecular beam, and the identification was confirmed by observations of the corresponding rotational transitions in the rare isotopic species SiH$_3$$^{15}$NC and SiH$_3$N$^{13}$C. Spectroscopic constants derived from 19 transitions between $11 - 35$~GHz in the three lowest harmonically related rotational transitions in the $K = 0 ~{\rm{and}}~1$ ladders of the normal isotopic species including the nitrogen nuclear quadrupole hyperfine constant, allow the principal astronomical transitions of SiH$_3$NC to be calculated to an uncertainty of about 4~km~s$^{-1}$ in equivalent radial velocity, or within the FWHM of narrow spectral features in the inner region of IRC+10216 near 200~GHz. The concentration of SiH$_3$NC in our molecular beam is three times less than SiH$_3$CN, or about the same as the corresponding ratio of the isomeric pair SiNC and SiCN produced under similar conditions. Silyl isocyanide is an excellent candidate for astronomical detection, because the spectroscopic and chemical properties are very similar to SiH$_3$CN which was recently identified in the circumstellar envelope of IRC+10216 by \citet{cernicharo_discovery_2017} and of SiNC and SiCN in the same source.

description: The Liquid Argon Time Projection Chambers (LArTPCs) are a choice for the next generation of large neutrino detectors due to their optimal performance in particle tracking and calorimetry. The detection of Argon scintillation light plays a crucial role in the event reconstruction as well as the time reference for non-beam physics such as supernovae neutrino detection and baryon number violation studies. In this contribution, we present the current R&D work on the ARAPUCA (Argon R&D Advanced Program at UNICAMP), a light trap device to enhance Ar scintillation light collection and thus the overall performance of LArTPCs. The ARAPUCA working principle is based on a suitable combination of dichroic filters and wavelength shifters to achieve a high efficiency in light collection. We discuss the operational principles, the last results of laboratory tests and the application of the ARAPUCA as the alternative photon detection system in the protoDUNE detector.

description: Antonia Pozzi (1912-1938), nella sua breve parabola esistenziale, incarna aspetti originali del connubio tra poesia ed arti visive di oraziana memoria. Disegnatrice dilettante, fotografa di talento, la poetessa milanese è alla costante ricerca di una forma espressiva del sé che possa rappresentare il suo mondo etico. Una poesia pittorica ed una fotografia poetica, rintracciabili nell’universo semantico delle sue Parole, quanto nelle fotografie da lei chiosate e donate, sono le caratteristiche di una poetica isolata, nonostante le riconoscibili ascendenze leopardiane, dannunziane, crepuscolari e poi ungarettiane, ed unicamente risolta in se stessa.

A pictorial poem and a poetic photo - traceable in the semantic universe of her word sas well as in her glossed and offered photos – are the caracteristics of an isolated poetry which, in spite of the possible references to Leopardi, D’Annunzio. The Crepuscolari, and Ungaretti, remains essentially closed in itself.

description: We evaluate the large scale polarization of the cosmic microwave background induced, via Thomson scattering prior to decoupling, by nearly scale-invariant spectra of scalar and tensor metric perturbations, such as those predicted by most inflationary models of the early Universe. We solve the radiative transfer equation for the polarized photon distribution function analytically, for wavelengths of order or larger than the horizon size at decoupling, assuming no reionization. The induced polarization is proportional to the redshift induced by the perturbations at decoupling and to the duration of the decoupling transition. Normalizing the spectra to the quadrupole anisotropy measured by the COBE satellite, the expected degree of linear polarization is $P\lsim 10^{-7}$, more than two orders of magnitude smaller than current bounds. The dependence of $P$ with the tilt in the spectrum away from scale invariance is too weak to be of observational relevance or to provide a sensitive discrimination between scalar and tensor fluctuations. The variation of $P$ with the angular scale is significant.

description: Che fosse difficile la trasposizione cinematografica del suo romanzo “Con gli occhi chiusi” lo aveva certamente compreso lo stesso Tozzi, anche alla luce delle diverse e contrastanti recensioni lette al suo apparire nel lontano 1913. Non meraviglia dunque che soltanto dopo circa settantacinque anni la regista Francesca Archibugi abbia realizzato il film «tratto dall’omonimo romanzo», suscitando reazioni diverse – del tutto prevedibili – sulla sua filmabilità. In questo dibattito si inserisce il presente saggio della Chirico, previa una indagine sui tempi della genesi della storia d’amore del suo protagonista, del suo racconto già nella corrispondenza raccolta in “Novale” e della stesura e pubblicazione del romanzo. Su questi tempi lunghi si sviluppa non una storiella d’amore per sartine, ma la storia mai chiusa della vita interiore dello scrittore, alla ricerca tormentosa delle ragioni del vivere.
description: The various and contrasting reviews of ‘Con gli occhi chiusi’ in 1913 anticipated to Tozzi himself to what its cimenatographic transposition would have been difficult. It is therefore not surprising that only after seventy-five years the director Francesca Archibugi decided to make the homonymous movie stirrig up different reactions – generally predictable – on the possibility of translating the novel into a film. The present study investigates this debate by analysing the genesis of protagonist’ s love affair (as already told in the correspondence collected in ‘Novale’), the wirting and publishing of the novel. A long time which tells the never-ending story of the writer’s interior life, always searching for the reasons of life.

description: The Haldane model on a honeycomb lattice is a paradigmatic example of a system featuring quantized Hall conductivity in the absence of an external magnetic field, that is, a quantum anomalous Hall effect. Recent theoretical work predicted that the anomalous Hall conductivity of massive Dirac fermions can display Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscillations, which could be observed in topological insulators and honeycomb layers with strong spin--orbit coupling. Here, we investigate the electronic transport properties of Chern insulators subject to high magnetic fields by means of accurate spectral expansions of lattice Green's functions. We find that the anomalous component of the Hall conductivity displays visible SdH oscillations at low temperature. \textcolor{black}{The effect is shown to result from the modulation of the next-nearest neighbour flux accumulation due to the Haldane term,} which removes the electron--hole symmetry from the Landau spectrum. To support our numerical findings, we derive a long-wavelength description beyond the linear ('Dirac cone') approximation. Finally, we discuss the dependence of the energy spectra shift for reversed magnetic fields with the topological gap and the lattice bandwidth.

description: It is shown, contrary to common belief, that the Fritzsch ansatz for the quark mass matrices admits a heavy top quark. With the ansatz prescribed at the supersymmetric grand unified (GUT) scale, one finds that the top quark may be as heavy as 145 GeV, provided that tan$β$ (the ratio of the vacuum expectation values of the two higgs doublets) $\gg 1$. Within a non-supersymmetric GUT framework with two (one) light higgs doublets, the corresponding approximate upper bound on the top mass is $120~ (90)$ GeV. Our results are based on a general one--loop renormalization group analysis of the quark masses and mixing angles and are readily applied to alternative mass matrix ansätze.

description: We show that the minimally gauged BPS baby Skyrme model remains a BPS theory after coupling with gravity that is the topologically nontrivial configurations called baby Skyrmions carrying magnetic flux are solutions to a zero pressure equation. Following that the proper mass, magnetic flux and the proper geometric volume are linear function of the topological charge, while the total ADM mass and geometric radius get a contribution due to the gravitational interaction which is quadratic in the topological charge. All these quantities are found exactly as target space integrals (averages) of the so-called superpotential. A complete classification of possible mass-radius curves is provided.As an example we consider the model with the pion like mass potential, for which, an approximated but analytical form of the superpotential is provided.

description: We study the sets of the infinite sentences constructible with a dictionary over a finite alphabet, from the viewpoint of descriptive set theory. Among other things, this gives some true co-analytic sets. The case where the dictionary is finite is studied and gives a natural example of a set at the level omega of the Wadge hierarchy.
Analysis of the Effects of HSF1 Inhibition in Colon Cancer

description: The deleterious effects o f physiological and environmental stresses which provoke cell damage is defended by a fundamental cellular mechanism, the heat shock response (HSR), mediated by heat shock factor 1 (HSF1). Evidence suggests th a t genetic depletion of HSF1 dramatically protects mice from tumor formation mediated by RAS over-activation or p53 inactivation both commonly mutated in colorectal cancer. Here we studied the effects of silencing HSF1 in HCT116 wt, HCT p53 - /- and HKE3 colon cancer cell lines with varying p53 and KRAS statuses. Targeting HSF1 expression using shRNA increased cell death and decreased clonogenic survival o f HCT116 cells independent o f th e ir genetic background. Constitutively active HSF1 significantly protected HCT116 w t cells from treatment with 5-FU/Oxal and increased cell viability in a normal colon epithelial cell line when treated with chemotherapeutic agents. Using both a monolayer and spheroid culture systems we could demonstrate th a t the pharmacological inhibitor of HSF1, triptolide, significantly reduced the cell viability in all the colon cancer cell lines examined in a predominately HSF1 dependent manner. In the clinical setting, a patient cohort examined exhibited a trend of increased levels of HSF1 being associated with a favourable outcome. Current literature has highlighted th a t HSF1 is involved in regulating genes outside of its classical role as a mediator of the HSR. To identify genes regulated by HSF1 in the different genetic backgrounds, RNA sequencing was performed after a viral knockdown of HSF1 for 48 h. In total 169 genes were upregulated and 233 downregulated irrespective of genetic background including 6 upregulated and 20 downregulated across all 3 cell lines, most of whom were novel genes not previously known to be dependent on HSF1 signalling. Genes upregulated were predominantly linked to histone modification, whilst those downregulated included genes involved in metabolism and pH regulation. Collectively our data supports a hypothesis th a t HSF1 is involved in the malignant transformation o f colon cancer. In light of the differential gene expression identified, HSF1 gene signatures could be targeted fo r the treatment of colon cancer and fo r the prediction of patient outcome.

description: Chapter 1: A brief overview of the cinnamate esters equivalents and their behaviour under organocatalysis and metal catalysis. Chapter 2. The addition of bisulfite to olefins, discovered over a century ago, remains the most straightforward approach to aliphatic sulfonic acids. A catalytic enantioselective procedure has now been realized that employs a bifunctional aminothiourea catalyst. Sulfonic acids were obtained from chalcones in high yields and high enantioselectivity and in both configurations. Chapter 3. The use of 3-phenyl-5-vinyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole as activated alkene for the Morita-Baylis-Hillman reaction in presence of one equivalent of 1,8-Diazabicycloundec-7-ene gave good yields with several aldehydes bearing both aromatic and aliphatic substituent. Chapter 4. The asymmetric Michael addition of nitromethane to a series of 5-Vinyl-1,2,4-Oxadiazole promoted by cinchona alkaloids ammonium salts gave corresponding nitroadducts in medium-good yield but poor ee. Hydrolysis of nitroadduct, to unveil corresponding cinnamic acid, was performed successfully. This study can be extended to the addition of others nucleophiles to 5-Vinyl-1,2,4-Oxadiazole. Chapter 5. Diels-Alder reaction of dienophile 3-phenyl-5-vinyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole with several diene in presence of catalytic amount of Cu(OTf)2 gave good yield and excellent endo:exo ratio.

description: The discovery of an Earth-mass exoplanet around the nearby star Proxima Centauri provides a prime target for the search for life on planets outside our solar system. Atmospheric characterization of these planets has been proposed by blocking the starlight with a stellar coronagraph and using a high-resolution spectrograph to search for reflected starlight off the planet. Due to the large flux ratio and small angular separation between Proxima b and its host star ($\lesssim10^{-7}$ and $\lesssim2.2λ/D$ respectively; at 750nm for an 8m-class telescope) the coronagraph needs to have a high starlight suppression at low inner-working angles. We aim to find the global optimum of an integrated coronagraphic integral-field spectrograph. We present the Single-mode Complex Amplitude Refinement (SCAR) coronagraph that uses a microlens-fed single-mode fiber array in the focal plane downstream from a pupil-plane phase plate. The mode-filtering property of the single-mode fibers allows for the nulling of starlight on the fibers. The phase pattern in the pupil plane is specifically designed to take advantage of this mode-filtering capability. Second-order nulling on the fibers expands the spectral bandwidth and decreases the tip-tilt sensitivity of the coronagraph. The SCAR coronagraph has a low inner-working angle ($\sim1λ/D$) at a contrast of $<3\times10^{-5}$ for the 6 fibers surrounding the star using a sufficiently-good adaptive optics system. It can operate over broad spectral bandwidths ($\sim20\%$) and delivers high throughput ($>50\%$ including fiber injection losses). Additionally, it is robust against tip-tilt errors ($\sim0.1λ/D$ rms). We present SCAR designs for both an unobstructed and a VLT-like pupil. The SCAR coronagraph is a promising candidate for exoplanet detection and characterization around nearby stars using current high-resolution imaging instruments.

description: We evaluate the cross section for electron-positron pair production by a single high energy photon in the space-time of a static, straight cosmic string. Energy and momentum conservation precludes this process in empty Minkowski space. It happens around a cosmic string, in spite of the local flatness of the metric, as a consequence of the conical structure of space. Previous results based on a simplified model with scalar fields are here extended to the realistic QED case. Analytic expressions are found in three different regimes: near the threshold, at energies much larger than the electron rest mass M, and at ultrahigh energies, much larger than $M/δ$, with $δ$ the string mass per unit length in Planck units.
