description: Υποστηρίζω ότι οι τρεις διάλογοι του Πλάτωνα, Θεαίτητος, Σοφιστής, και Πολιτικός, συνιστούν ενότητα, όχι μόνον από δραματική, αλλά και από φιλοσοφική σκοπιά. Το ενοποιητικό τους στοιχείο είναι η πλατωνική αντίληψη της φιλοσοφίας ως δραστηριότητας που εξελίσσεται στον χρόνο. Η τριλογία αποτελεί μία παραδειγματική αναπαράσταση της εξέλιξης της φιλοσοφίας, η οποία εκδηλώνεται με δύο μορφές. Η πρώτη είναι υπαρξιακή: Η ανάπτυξη των χαρακτήρων αναπαριστά την ιδανική εξέλιξη ενός πλατωνικού φιλοσόφου κατά τη διάρκεια της ζωής του, και ακολουθεί πιστά, τηρουμένων των αναλογιών, την περιγραφή της αγωγής των φυλάκων στο βιβλίο Ζ΄ της Πολιτείας. Η δεύτερη είναι ιστορική: Οι συνομιλητές ανασυνθέτουν και εξετάζουν θεωρίες προγενέστερων και συγχρόνων του Πλάτωνα στοχαστών, αποκαλύπτοντας τις απορίες που οδηγούν στην ανάπτυξη της πλατωνικής διαλεκτικής, ως της μοναδικής μεθόδου που μπορεί να επιτρέψει την περαιτέρω πρόοδο της φιλοσοφικής έρευνας. Οι δύο μορφές εξέλιξης της φιλοσοφίας βαίνουν παράλληλα και αλληλένδετα, και γίνονται εμφανείς μόνον εφόσον η τριλογία αναγνωσθεί ως όλον, δηλαδή ως φιλοσοφικό και, ταυτοχρόνως, λογοτεχνικό έργο.
description: I argue that Plato's three dialogues, Theaetetus, Sophist, and Statesman, constitute a unity, not only from a dramatic but also from a philosophical point of view. Τheir unifying element is the platonic conception of philosophy as an activity that evolves in time. The trilogy is a paradigmatic representation of the development of philosophy, which manifests itself in two forms. The first is existential: The character development represents the ideal development of a platonic philosopher throughout their lifetime, and follows closely, mutatis mutandis, the description of the guardians’ education in the Republic VII. The second is historical: The interlocutors reconstruct and examine theories of Plato's earlier and contemporary thinkers, revealing the puzzles that lead to the development of platonic dialectic as the only method that can make further progress in philosophical inquiry possible. The two forms of philosophical development run parallel and intertwined, and become apparent only when the trilogy is read as a whole, i.e., as a philosophical and, at the same time, a literary work.

description: A new protocol for measuring the branching fraction of hydrogenic atoms with only statistically limited uncertainty is proposed and demonstrated for the decay of the P$_{3/2}$ level of the barium ion, with precision below $0.5\%$. Heavy hydrogenic atoms like the barium ion are test beds for fundamental physics such as atomic parity violation and they also hold the key to understanding nucleo-synthesis in stars. To draw definitive conclusion about possible physics beyond the standard model by measuring atomic parity violation in the barium ion it is necessary to measure the dipole transition probabilities of low-lying excited states with precision better than $1\%$. Furthermore, enhancing our understanding of the $\it{barium-puzzle}$ in barium stars requires branching fraction data for proper modelling of nucleo-synthesis. Our measurements are the first to provide a direct test of quantum many-body calculations on the barium ion with precision below one percent and more importantly with no known systematic uncertainties. The unique measurement protocol proposed here can be easily extended to any decay with more than two channels and hence paves the way for measuring the branching fractions of other hydrogenic atoms with no significant systematic uncertainties.

description: Fine questions our interpretation of unidirectional-stripes over bidirectional-checkerboard, and illustrates his criticism by simulating a momentum space structure consistent with our data and corresponding to a checkerboard-looking real space density. Here we use a local rotational-symmetry analysis to demonstrate that the simulated image is in actuality composed of locally unidirectional modulations of the charge density, consistent with our original conclusions.

description: Volunteers, who can lose their ability and willingness to perform due to poor organization, are a crucial success factor and unique resource for events. Due to increasing complexity of events and changing social trends, this study is to identify human resource and project management requirements for planning and holding major events with volunteers successfully. The research questions were evaluated through a systematic literature review and qualitative expert interviews based on the grounded theory methodology. The current state of research could be mapped extensively, but not fully due to time limitations of the analysis. Ten German experts were interviewed, and their results could not be analysed to the point of content saturation. Volunteer management entails nine core requirements, which include 146 tasks covering 30 topics, summarized in a volunteer management model. Its relevance is to be tested quantitatively and it is to be used for further theory development. The job characteristics model could be expanded to include a psychological stage in the context of voluntary work. Volunteer management teams should be interdisciplinary. For each manageable volunteer-number, a manager with a high degree of social competence should be appointed, who focuses particularly on appreciation, perception, assessment, and communication.

description: Several studies have reported a correlation between the chemical abundances of stars and condensation temperature (known as Tc trend). Very recently, a strong Tc trend was reported for the $ζ$ Reticuli binary system, which consists of two solar analogs. The observed trend in $ζ^2$ Ret relative to its companion was explained by the presence of a debris disk around $ζ^2$ Ret. Our goal is to re-evaluate the presence and variability of the Tc trend in the $ζ$ Reticuli system and to understand the impact of the presence of the debris disk on a star. We used very high-quality spectra of the two stars retrieved from the HARPS archive to derive very precise stellar parameters and chemical abundances. We derived the stellar parameters with the classical (nondifferential) method, while we applied a differential line-by-line analysis to achieve the highest possible precision in abundances, which are fundamental to explore for very tiny differences in the abundances between the stars. We confirm that the abundance difference between $ζ^2$ Ret and $ζ^1$ Ret shows a significant ($\sim$ 2 $σ$) correlation with Tc. However, we also find that the Tc trends depend on the individual spectrum used (even if always of very high quality). In particular, we find significant but varying differences in the abundances of the same star from different individual high-quality spectra. Our results for the $ζ$ Reticuli system show, for example, that nonphysical factors, such as the quality of spectra employed and errors that are not accounted for, can be at the root of the Tc trends for the case of individual spectra.

description: We have used the {\it Spitzer Space Telescope} to observe two transiting planetary systems orbiting low mass stars discovered in the \Kepler \Ktwo mission. The system K2-3 (EPIC 201367065) hosts three planets while EPIC 202083828 (K2-26) hosts a single planet. Observations of all four objects in these two systems confirm and refine the orbital and physical parameters of the planets. The refined orbital information and more precise planet radii possible with \Spitzer will be critical for future observations of these and other \Ktwo targets. For K2-3b we find marginally significant evidence for a Transit Timing Variation between the \Ktwo and \Spitzer\ epochs.

description: BIPV (building-integrated photovoltaics) technologies may play a key role in the transition towards low-carbon energy communities. A relevant aspect to consider to correctly assessing the techno-economic and environmental performance of BIPV applications is the dynamic variation of the climate boundaries conditions during the entire systems’ lifespan. This study provides an innovative approach to optimize BIPV applications in the early design phase. By using a real case study, that consists of four residential buildings, located in Milan, Italy, including about 142 residential units, simulations have been run with two different weather datasets, one representative of the current weather conditions and one representative of their projection in 2050, to investigate the possible impacts of climate change on some relevant key performance indicators (KPIs), with a particular focus on the minimization of the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE). This approach is meant to foster a more accurate design of BIPV systems in urban contexts. Results show that the LCOE decreases by almost 50% from 2020 to 2050 optimizations, and the self-sufficiency target is guaranteed with a smaller installed PV capacity.

description: During embryonic development, mutually antagonistic signaling cascades determine gonadal fate toward a testicular or ovarian identity. Errors in this process result in disorders of sex development (DSDs), characterized by discordance between chromosomal, gonadal, and anatomical sex. The absence of an appropriate, accessible in vitro system is a major obstacle in understanding mechanisms of sex-determination/DSDs. Here, we describe protocols for differentiation of mouse and human pluripotent cells toward gonadal progenitors. Transcriptomic analysis reveals that the in vitro-derived murine gonadal cells are equivalent to embryonic day 11.5 in vivo progenitors. Using similar conditions, Sertoli-like cells derived from 46,XY human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) exhibit sustained expression of testis-specific genes, secrete anti-Müllerian hormone, migrate, and form tubular structures. Cells derived from 46,XY DSD female hiPSCs, carrying an NR5A1 variant, show aberrant gene expression and absence of tubule formation. CRISPR-Cas9-mediated variant correction rescued the phenotype. This is a robust tool to understand mechanisms of sex determination and model DSDs.

description: This paper is part of the PV IMPACT project funded by the EU H2020 program. The main objective is to shed light on the research and development funding for photovoltaics (PV) by analysing funding from public (European Commission and national budgets) and private sources so to get detailed understanding of past R&I expenditures for the PV sector and related research topics, current level and potential future trends. The countries under scope are the EU27+UK, Norway and Turkey. Climate and energy related targets should be met by 2030, so keeping track of investments in a field that enables technology innovation is an important effort as PV will play a major role in the coming decade. The CORDIS database provides ample data on H2020 projects, allowing the compilation of relevant information. As of December 2020, a total of ~360 M EUR have been distributed for PV R&D since 2014. A large amount of these funds (~194 M EUR, equivalent to 54% of the whole funds) are destined for the sole purpose of improving PV module efficiency. At Member States level, leveraging on the availability of national databases, it is possible to define on which areas of the SET-PLAN each Member State is investing most.
Regarding the `Hole Argument' and the `Problem of Time'

description: The canonical formalism of general relativity affords a particularly interesting characterisation of the infamous hole argument. It also provides a natural formalism in which to relate the hole argument to the problem of time in classical and quantum gravity. In this paper, we examine the connection between these two much discussed problems in the foundations of spacetime theory along two interrelated lines. First, from a formal perspective, we consider the extent to which the two problems can and cannot be precisely and distinctly characterised. Second, from a philosophical perspective, we consider the implications of various responses to the problems, with a particular focus upon the viability of a `deflationary' attitude to the relationalist/substantivalist debate regarding the ontology of spacetime. Conceptual and formal inadequacies within the representative language of canonical gravity will be shown to be at the heart of both the canonical hole argument and the problem of time. Interesting and fruitful work at the interface of physics and philosophy relates to the challenge of resolving such inadequacies.

description: Large interstellar organic molecules are potential precursors of prebiotic molecules. Their formation pathways and chemical relationships with one another and simpler molecules are therefore of great interest. In this paper, we address the relationship between two classes of large organic molecules, carbon chains and saturated complex organic molecules (COMs), at the early stages of star formation through observations of C4H and CH3OH. We surveyed these molecules with the IRAM 30m telescope toward 16 deeply embedded low-mass protostars selected from the Spitzer c2d ice survey. We find that CH3OH and C4H are positively correlated indicating that these two classes of molecules can coexist during the embedded protostellar stage. The C4H/CH3OH gas abundance ratio tentatively correlates with the CH4/CH3OH ice abundance ratio in the same lines of sight. This relationship supports a scenario where carbon chain formation in protostellar envelopes begins with CH4 ice desorption.

description: The number of user reviews of tourist attractions, restaurants, mobile apps, etc. is increasing for all languages; yet, research is lacking on how reviews in multiple languages should be aggregated and displayed. Speakers of different languages may have consistently different experiences, e.g., different information available in different languages at tourist attractions or different user experiences with software due to internationalization/localization choices. This paper assesses the similarity in the ratings given by speakers of different languages to London tourist attractions on TripAdvisor. The correlations between different languages are generally high, but some language pairs are more correlated than others. The results question the common practice of computing average ratings from reviews in many languages.

description: Weinberg's asymptotic safety scenario provides an elegant mechanism to construct a quantum theory of gravity within the framework of quantum field theory based on a non-Gaußian fixed point of the renormalization group flow. In this work we report novel evidence for the validity of this scenario, using functional renormalization group techniques to determine the renormalization group flow of the Einstein-Hilbert action supplemented by the two-loop counterterm found by Goroff and Sagnotti. The resulting system of beta functions comprises three scale-dependent coupling constants and exhibits a non-Gaußian fixed point which constitutes the natural extension of the one found at the level of the Einstein-Hilbert action. The fixed point exhibits two ultraviolet attractive and one repulsive direction supporting a low-dimensional UV-critical hypersurface. Our result vanquishes the longstanding criticism that asymptotic safety will not survive once a "proper perturbative counterterm" is included in the projection space.

description: Quasigeostrophic turbulence on a beta-plane with a finite deformation radius is studied nu- merically, with particular emphasis on frequency and combined wavenumber-frequency do- main analyses. Under suitable conditions, simulations with small-scale random forcing and large-scale drag exhibit a spontaneous formation of multiple zonal jets. The first hint of wave-like features is seen in the distribution of kinetic energy as a function of frequency; specifically, for progressively larger deformation scales there are systematic departures in the form of isolated peaks (at progressively higher frequencies) from a power-law scaling. Con- comitantly, there is an inverse flux of kinetic energy in frequency space which extends to lower frequencies for smaller deformation scales. The identification of these peaks as Rossby waves is made possible by examining the energy spectrum in frequency-zonal wavenumber and frequency-meridional wavenumber diagrams. In fact, the modified Rhines scale turns out to be a useful measure of the dominant meridional wavenumber of the modulating Rossby waves; once this is fixed, apart from a spectral peak at the origin (the steady jet), almost all the energy is contained in westward propagating disturbances that follow the theoretical Rossby dispersion relation. Quite consistently, noting that the zonal scale of the modulating waves is restricted to the first few wavenumbers, the energy spectrum is almost entirely contained within the corresponding Rossby dispersion curves on a frequency-meridional wavenumber diagram. Cases when jets do not form are also considered; once again, there is a hint of Rossby wave activity, though the spectral peaks are quite muted. Further, the kinetic energy scaling in frequency domain follows a -5/3 power-law and is distributed much more broadly in frequency-wavenumber diagrams

description: Tandem perovskite-silicon (TPS) photovoltaic (PV) technology is a promising pathway for achieving higher efficiencies than those of single-junction crystal-silicon (c-Si) technologies. In this work, a techno-economic assessment of a TPS module is performed considering a viable large-scale manufacturing process for two future scenarios in 2025 and 2030 which allowed us to identify the main cost drivers of the tandem module cost. Furthermore, to analyse the performance of tandem module-based utility-scale PV systems and understand their competitiveness in Europe, the levelized cost of electricity was compared to passivated emitter and rear cell as well as silicon heterojunction based PV systems. The aim of this work is to provide a cost and performance guidance for TPS modules which could contribute to future PV energy systems.

description: Logistics performance is significant to apply in relief organization program due to emergency, uncertainty and unpredictability of situation. Transportation is a logistics function which enables to achieve fast delivery of material, person and other requirement to the needed place and time. Therefore logistics performance is critical in saving life and compliance of donor /standard stock holder requirement in humanitarian organization. Although extensive research has been conducted in the area of transportation and logistics performance evaluation. The same can't be said by directly relating to rental transportation service and its influence on logistics performance, especially in developing countries like Ethiopia. The purpose of this study is addressing the effect of the third party transportation service on logistics performance. In order to understand the study objective three goal developed and these only focused on identifying the significant variable associated with logistics performance in relation to rental vehicle, examine the relationship between use of rental vehicle and logistics performance and determine the effects of use of rental vehicle on logistics performance .The study was based on one of international humanitarian organization(GOAL Ethiopia).The research design employed in this study isdescriptive using quantitative research methods for data collection.

description: Climate change abatement requires the achievement of net zero carbon emissions by 2050. To achieve this there has to be a shift to global energy to electricity supplied by renewable energy technologies, the majority coming from photovoltaics with 8.5TWp total global installations by 2050. This is implementable if global installation grow at 5% p.a. from a base of 773.2 GWp total installations in 2020. Learning curve studies have shown that costs as low as $0.09/Wp for silicon modules is possible but with module efficiency only at 26.4%. There is a reasonable expectation that this level can be exceed in the next 30 years. Two technologies offer efficiencies beyond 30% namely tandem cells of III-V alloys on silicon and perovskite cells on silicon. Applying learning curve theory to present best production costs for these materials shows that cost of epitaxy is a limiting factor for III-V/silicon tandems while a module efficiency of 36% is required for perovskite/silicon tandems to be cost effective against the projected cost for silicon modules.

description: Hoewel er weinig bekend is over de prevalentie van middelengebruik bij verzoekers om internationale bescherming (VIB) in Europa (Horyniak et al., 2016; Humphris & Bradby, 2017; Priebe et al., 2016), doet onderzoek vermoeden dat middelengebruik bij aankomst in een Europees land vrij laag is in vergelijking gebruik in de algemene bevolking, maar stijgt na aankomst (Harris et al., 2019; Kieseppä et al., 2019). Onder invloed van pre- en post-migratiefactoren en plaatselijke gebruikerspatronen in combinatie met slechtere leefomstandigheden tijdens de covid-19-pandemie nam het middelengebruik onder deze bevolkingsgroepen in Europa toe (De Jong et al., 2020; ApartTogether, 2020). Bovendien waarschuwt een recent rapport van het EU-asielagentschap (EUAA, 2020) dat druggerelateerde incidenten in het Europees opvangnetwerk een groeiend probleem zijn. Ook toonde eerder onderzoek aan dat de residentiële drughulpverlening weinig toegankelijk is voor personen die geen van de landstalen machtig zijn (De Kock, 2022) en vooral voor VIB. Dit alles betekent dat er een treatment gap ontstaat voor deze doelgroep en dat het recht op gelijkwaardige (drug)hulpverlening voor deze doelgroep in het gedrang komt. Een vooralsnog ongepubliceerde studie van het EEAO en EMCDDA wijst bovendien uit dat hulpverleners in de OI tools nodig hebben om hiermee om te gaan en dat er ook op politiek niveau structurele veranderingen noodzakelijk zijn. Dit project zal een duidelijk beeld schetsen van de voornaamste trends op vlak van middelengebruik in de OI (aard kritische incidenten, types middelengebruik – inclusief medicatie, kenmerken gebruikers), de drughulpverlening en de voornaamste obstakels die door hulpverleners worden ervaren. Dit project zal ook concrete aanbevelingen formuleren op het niveau van de organisatie van de OI én de drughulpverlening, en aan het adres van de politieke overheden. De resultaten van dit project zullen in een toegankelijk rapport van maximaal 40 pagina’s geformuleerd worden. Dit rapport zal een korte state of the art bevatten van recente Belgische en Europese onderzoeksresultaten en aanbevelingen (10 jaar) rond drughulpverlening voor deze doelgroep. Bovendien zullen de resultaten en aanbevelingen in een kennisclip (zie onder: innovatieve karakter) en een infographic worden omgezet die gemakkelijk toegankelijk zijn en eenvoudig gedissemineerd kunnen worden. De infographic op posterformaat zal aan alle Fedasil OI bezorgd worden. De kennisclips en infographic zullen eveneens digitaal verspreid worden binnen het CESSMIR en ETHEALTH netwerk, OI’s die niet door Fedasil worden uitgebaat en in de drughulpverlening.

description: Perspectives for BIPV market development have always been a topic of interest within the PV sector as it has often been considered as a potential growth path for PV, but this never materialized to significative deployment. The innovative methodology presented here aims at estimating a realistic market potential for BIPV by 2030, by using a two-sided and a back-casting approach for eight key European solar markets, taking into account the characteristics of their building stock. In particular, renovation rates are key inputs as they are used to define the two considered scenarios (a high scenario falling within the Renovation Wave Strategy and a Business-as-Usual scenario). Eventually, the cumulative BIPV capacity projected to be installed in the eight key European countries over the next decade could amount to 7,4 GWp to 9,5 GWp with most of the capacity being installed on residential buildings’ roofs. Then, not only will a doubling of current renovation rates have clear benefits in terms of primary energy consumption reduction for the building sector, it can also be an important driver of the BIPV market representing an additional 2 GWp opportunity compared to the Business as Usual scenario.

description: We derive the formal Ward identities relating pseudoscalar susceptibilities and quark condensates in three-flavor QCD, including consistently the $η$-$η'$ sector and the $U_A(1)$ anomaly. These identities are verified in the low-energy realization provided by ChPT, both in the standard $SU(3)$ framework for the octet case and combining the use of the $U(3)$ framework and the large-$N_c$ expansion of QCD to account properly for the nonet sector and anomalous contributions. The analysis is performed including finite temperature corrections as well as the calculation of $U(3)$ quark condensates and all pseudoscalar susceptibilities, which together with the full set of Ward identities, are new results of this work. Finally, the Ward identities are used to derive scaling relations for pseudoscalar masses, which explain the behavior with temperature of lattice screening masses near chiral symmetry restoration.

description: We propose that a pulsed quantum optomechanical system can be applied for the problem of quantum parameter estimation, which targets to yield higher precision of parameter estimation utilizing quantum resource than that using classical methods. Mainly concentrating on the quantum Fisher information with respect to the mechanical frequency, we find that the corresponding precision of parameter estimation on the mechanical frequency can be enhanced by applying applicable optical resonant pulsed driving on the cavity of the optome- chanical system. Further investigation shows that the mechanical squeezing resulting from the optical pulsed driving is the quantum resource used in optimal quantum estimation on the frequency.

description: Cell-type deconvolution methods aim to infer cell-type heterogeneity and the cell abundances from bulk RNA-sequencing data. Since a plethora of methods have been developed, there is an urgent need for guidance on method selection. Although previously suggested benchmarks have paved the way to better understand the performance of deconvolution methods, the proposed tests remain theoretical and have only been applied to a handful of datasets. At the same time there is pressing interest to achieve decomposition of database-level transcriptomic data of different tissues, conditions and species, scenarios in which deconvolution methods have not been tested thoroughly. Here, we propose a large-scale, multi-level assessment of 28 available deconvolution methods, leveraging 44 single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq), from 8 organs and tissues. We extend previous benchmarks, suggesting a comprehensive simulation framework to evaluate deconvolution across a wide range of scenarios and we provide guidelines on the normalisation and transformation strategies. We also show that regression-based deconvolution methods such as FARDEEP and DWLS are performing well but their performance is highly dependent on the reference selection and the tissue type. Lastly, we provide a modularised benchmarking pipeline that will speed up the evaluation of newly published methods and we showcase its applicability and significance in the large-scale decomposition of available tissue data.

description: Tantalum is studied by the method of point-contact (PC) spectroscopy: the parameter ${{λ}_{pc}}$ and the absolute intensity of the PC EPI function are determined, and the form of the EPI function is determined more accurately. Both homocontacts $Ta-Ta$ and heterocontacts $Ta-Cu$ and $Ta-Au$ were studied. It was found that the contributions of copper and gold to the spectrum of the heterocontact are not noticeable, though the forms of the PC spectra of $Ta$ in homo- and heterocontacts are different. The intensities of the spectra of $Ta-Ta$ homocontacts and $Ta-Cu$ heterocontacts turned out to be close to one another. Simple expressions, enabling numerical calculations of the PC characteristics for geometrically symmetric heterocontacts in the approximation of a spherical Fermi surface, are derived, based on the theory. It is shown that the use of the free-electron approximation in the numerical estimates leads to an error. It is proposed that the effective mass approximation be used for such estimates.
