description: The Munich Chronotype Questionnaire (MCTQ) was developed to determine an individual’s chronotype, and it provides information about sleep and wake times separately for work and free days. However, the MCTQ has not been effectively verified using a large sample based on multiple questionnaires and actigraphy measures. Three sequential studies were conducted. Study 1 used a large sample (n = 1066) to investigate the chronotype of Chinese college freshmen and assess the validity of the MCTQ compared with the reduced Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire (rMEQ), actigraphy, and other related questionnaires. Study 2 verified the MCTQ compared with a sleep diary. Study 3 examined the test-retest reliability of the MCTQ at the 2-year follow-up. The results showed that MCTQ parameters were significantly associated with rMEQ scores, the actigraphy-based mid-point of sleep, sleep quality, depression, and trait anxiety. In addition, all MCTQ variables were significantly related to the diary-based sleep mid-point. The test-retest reliability of the mid-point of sleep adjusted for sleep debt (MSFsc) and mid-point of sleep on free days (MSF) was acceptable. These results indicate that the MCTQ is a practical and efficient tool with good reliability. Its further development is important for the accurate assessment of chronotypes and clinical diagnoses of sleep.

description: The aim of the thesis was the as much as possible closest approach of a crucial issue for the criminal trial, that is the issue of the vindication of the judgements. For the achievement of the above purpose we initially did the analysis of the individual elements of the particular and in depth vindication which the judgments will have to include, based on constitution and Law. Then we examined some more particular issues as to the vindication of the legal orders and judgements, which practically occupied the criminal justice. As it is reasonable and natural, we couldn’t have left apart the examination –always in light of the subject of the vindication of judgements- and of one particular phenomenon which appears at the criminal proceedings, that is the one about the independent claims, for the fuller understanding of the issue, about which we quoted special cases, the one that came up from the nomology of our country’s courts

description: We propose a minimal $A_4$ flavor symmetric model, assisted by $Z_2 \times Z_3$ symmetry, which can naturally takes care of the appropriate lepton mixing and neutrino masses via Type-I seesaw. It turns out that the framework, originated due to a specific flavor structure, favors the normal hierarchy of light neutrinos and simultaneously narrows down the range of Dirac CP violating phase. It predicts an interesting correlation between the atmospheric mixing angle and the Dirac CP phase too. While the flavor structure indicates an exact degeneracy of the right handed neutrino masses, renormalization group running of the same from a high scale is shown to make it quasi-degenerate and a successful flavor leptogenesis takes place within the allowed parameter space obtained from neutrino phenomenology.

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In view of the enormous difficulties we seem to face in quantizing general relativity, we should perhaps consider the possibility that gravity is a fundamentally classical interaction. Theoretical arguments against such mixed classical-quantum models are strong, but not conclusive, and the question is ultimately one for experiment. I review some work in progress on the possibility of experimental tests, exploiting the nonlinearity of the classical-quantum coupling, that could help settle this question.

description: The aim of the present thesis was the study of the article 22a of the legislation 3604/2007, which concerns the civil liability of the board of directors in a S.A. against the legal person for whichever damage they might cause during the execution of their duties, and on the same hand it analyzes the cases where the civil liability is eliminated or excluded. Actually, it has to do with the inner responsibility of the members of the board and the claims the company preserves against them. On the other hand, it doesn’t settle the external responsibility. The article 22a is mandatory rule, and it aims to the protection of corporate interest. That means that any settings of the statute, or decisions of the general assembly, which eliminate or exclude the responsibility are not permitted

description: Lovelock gravity in $D$-dimensional space-times is considered adopting Cartan's structure equations. In this context, we find out exact solutions in cosmological and spherically symmetric backgrounds. In the latter case, we also derive horizons and the corresponding Bekenstein--Hawking entropies. Moreover, we focus on the topological Chern--Simons theory, providing exact solutions in 5 dimensions. Specifically, it is possible to show that Anti-de Sitter invariant Chern--Simons gravity can be framed within Lovelock--Zumino gravity in 5 dimensions, for particular choices of Lovelock parameters.

description: We analyze dynamical consequences of a conjecture that there exists a fundamental (indivisible) quant of time. In particular we study the problem of discrete energy levels of hydrogen atom. We are able to reconstruct potential which in discrete time formalism leads to energy levels of unperturbed hydrogen atom. We also consider linear energy levels of quantum harmonic oscillator and show how they are produced in the discrete time formalism. More generally, we show that in discrete time formalism finite motion in central potential leads to discrete energy spectrum, the property which is common for quantum mechanical theory. Thus deterministic (but discrete time!) dynamics is compatible with discrete energy levels.

The force brakes detailed balance, maintained otherwise, thus producing entropy. The large deviation function of the entropy production in the system is calculated explicitly. The general result is illustrated using an example of a polymer immersed in a gradient flow and subject to thermal fluctuations.

description: Τα έργα ζωγραφικής αποτελούν σημαντικό κομμάτι του σύγχρονου πολιτισμού. Η ανάλυση τους με μη καταστρεπτικές μεθόδους είναι αναγκαία για τον σωστό χαρακτηρισμό τους, ο οποίος μπορεί να μας δώσει στοιχεία για την γνησιότητα του έργου τέχνης, καθώς και για την τεχνική του καλλιτέχνη. Με τη βοήθεια της φασματοσκοπίας υπεριώδους-ορατού γίνεται δυνατή η ενεργειακή και η χρωματική μελέτη του υλικού. Η χρωματομετρία αποτελεί σημαντικό κομμάτι χαρακτηρισμού του υλικού, μιας και η αντίληψη χρώματος είναι κομμάτι μιας εκ των αισθήσεών μας, την όραση. Σκοπός της παρούσας διατριβής ήταν ο έλεγχος και η βαθμονόμηση του φασματοσκοπίου UV-Visible Lambda 18 της Perkin-Elmer με τη χρήση πρότυπων χρωστικών που χρησιμοποιούνται σε έργα ζωγραφικής. Στην παρούσα μελέτη μελετήθηκαν δεκατέσσερα δείγματα χρωστικών, για τον ποιοτικό και ποσοτικό προσδιορισμό του χρώματος. Οι χρωστικές μελετήθηκαν πριν και μετά από θέρμανση (μέχρι τους 500 οC), με σκοπό να εξετασθεί η επίδραση της θερμοκρασίας στο χρώμα τους. Για την εξαγωγή των χρωματομετρικών παραμέτρων δημιουργήθηκε λογισμικό για τις συντεταγμένες XYZ, Lab και LCh κατά τα πρότυπα CIE. Επίσης χρειάστηκε η κατασκευή λογισμικού για την εύρεση διαφοράς χρώματος (απόσταση χρώματος) ΔΕab και ΔΕ00.
description: Paintings are an important part of modern culture. Their analysis by non-destructive methods is necessary for their decent characterization, which can give us information about the authenticity of the work of art, as well as about the technique of the artist. UV and visible spectroscopy enables the energy and color study of the material. The colorimetry is an important part of material characterization, since color perception is part of one of our senses, vision. The aim of the present thesis was to checking and calibrate the Perkin-Elmer UV-Visible Lambda 18 spectrometer using standard pigments used in paintings. Fourteen samples of pigments for qualitative and quantitative specification of color were studied in this research. The pigments were studied before and after heating (up to 500 °C), in order to examine the effect of temperature on their color. For the extraction of colorimetric parameters, software for CIE, XYZ, Lab and LCh coordinates, per CIE (International Commission on Illumination) standards was created. It also required the construction of software to find the color difference (color distance) ΔEab and ΔΕ00.

description: The ~800 optically unseen (R>25.5) 24mum-selected sources in the complete Spitzer First Look Survey sample (Fadda et al. 2006) with F[24mum]>0.35 mJy are found to be very strongly clustered. If, as indicated by several lines of circumstantial evidence, they are ultraluminous far-IR galaxies at z ~ [1.6-2.7], the amplitude of their spatial correlation function is very high. The associated comoving clustering length is estimated to be r_0=14.0_{-2.4}^{+2.1} Mpc, value which puts these sources amongst the most strongly clustered populations of our known universe. Their 8mum-24mum colours suggest that the AGN contribution dominates above F[24mum] ~ 0.8 mJy, consistent with earlier analyses. The properties of these objects (number counts, redshift distribution, clustering amplitude) are fully consistent with those of proto-spheroidal galaxies in the process of forming most of their stars and of growing their active nucleus, as described by the Granato et al. (2004) model. In particular, the inferred space density of such galaxies at z ~ 2 is much higher than what expected from most semi-analytic models. Matches of the observed projected correlation function w(θ) with models derived within the so-called Halo Occupation Scenario show that these sources have to be hosted by haloes more massive than ~10^{13.4} M_\odot. This value is significantly higher than that for the typical galactic haloes hosting massive elliptical galaxies, suggesting a duration of the starburst phase of massive high-redshift dusty galaxies of T_B ~ 0.5 Gyr.

description: We present a study of the CMS trigger system in heavy-ion collisions. Concentrating on two physics channels, dimuons from decays of quarkonia and single jets, we evaluate a possible trigger strategy for Pb+Pb running that relies on event selection solely in the High-Level Trigger (HLT). The study is based on measurements of the timing performance of the offline algorithms and event-size distributions using full simulations. Using a trigger simulation chain, we compare the physics reach for the jet and dimuon channels using online selection in the HLT to minimum bias running. The results demonstrate the crucial role the HLT will play for CMS heavy-ion physics.

description: Chirp spread spectrum (CSS) is the modulation technique currently employed by Long-Range (LoRa), which is one of the most prominent Internet of things wireless communications standards. The LoRa physical layer (PHY) employs CSS on top of a variant of frequency shift keying, and non-coherent detection is employed at the receiver. While it offers a good trade-off among coverage, data rate and device simplicity, its maximum achievable data rate is still a limiting factor for some applications. Moreover, the current LoRa standard does not fully exploit the CSS generic case, i.e., when data to be transmitted is encoded in different waveform parameters. Therefore, the goal of this paper is to investigate the performance of CSS while exploring different parameter settings aiming to increase the maximum achievable throughput, and hence increase spectral efficiency. Moreover, coherent and non-coherent reception algorithm design is presented under the framework of maximum likelihood estimation. For the practical receiver design, the formulation of a channel estimation technique is also presented. The performance evaluation of the different variants of CSS is carried out by inspection of the symbol error ratio as a function of the signal-to-noise ratio together with the maximum achievable throughput each scheme can achieve.

description: We discuss new ideas for consideration of loop diagrams and angular integrals in $D$-dimensions in QCD. In case of loop diagrams, we propose the covariant formalism of expansion of tensorial loop integrals into the orthogonal basis of linear combinations of external momenta. It gives a very simple presentation for the final results and is more convenient for calculations on computer algebra systems. In case of angular integrals we demonstrate how to simplify the integration of differential cross sections over polar angles. Also we derive the recursion relations, which allow to reduce all occurring angular integrals to a short set of basic scalar integrals. All order $ε$-expansion is given for all angular integrals with up to two denominators based on the expansion of the basic integrals and using recursion relations. A geometric picture for partial fractioning is developed which provides a new rotational invariant algorithm to reduce the number of denominators.

description: Fairness for machine learning predictions is widely required in practice for legal, ethical, and societal reasons. Existing work typically focuses on settings without unobserved confounding, even though unobserved confounding can lead to severe violations of causal fairness and, thus, unfair predictions. In this work, we analyze the sensitivity of causal fairness to unobserved confounding. Our contributions are three-fold. First, we derive bounds for causal fairness metrics under different sources of unobserved confounding. This enables practitioners to examine the sensitivity of their machine learning models to unobserved confounding in fairness-critical applications. Second, we propose a novel neural framework for learning fair predictions, which allows us to offer worst-case guarantees of the extent to which causal fairness can be violated due to unobserved confounding. Third, we demonstrate the effectiveness of our framework in a series of experiments, including a real-world case study about predicting prison sentences. To the best of our knowledge, ours is the first work to study causal fairness under unobserved confounding. To this end, our work is of direct practical value as a refutation strategy to ensure the fairness of predictions in high-stakes applications.

description: Spectroscopic studies of Planetary Nebulae (PNe) and H {\sc ii} regions have driven much development in atomic physics. In the last few years the combination of a generation of powerful observatories, the development of ever more sophisticated spectral modeling codes, and large efforts on mass production of high quality atomic data have led to important progress in our understanding of the atomic spectra of such astronomical objects. In this paper I review such progress, including evaluations of atomic data by comparisons with nebular spectra, detection of spectral lines from most iron-peak elements and n-capture elements, observations of hyperfine emission lines and analysis of isotopic abundances, fluorescent processes, and new techniques for diagnosing physical conditions based on recombination spectra. The review is directed toward atomic physicists and spectroscopists trying to establish the current status of the atomic data and models and to know the main standing issues.

description: Σκοπός της διατριβής αυτής ήταν παρουσίαση του φιλοσοφικού οικοδομήματος του Wilhelm von Humboldt γύρω από τη γλώσσα. Αρχικά, γίνεται λόγος για την προέλευση και τη δημιουργία της γλώσσας με ιδιαίτερη έμφαση στους εσωτερικούς και εξωτερικούς παράγοντες που οδηγούν στην εκδήλωση αυτής. Στη συνέχεια παρουσιάζεται η ιδιαίτερη λειτουργία της γλώσσα ως διαμορφωτικού οργάνου του διανοήματος, τόσο σε ατομικό όσο και σε εθνικό επίπεδο, καθώς και στα μέσα με τα οποία αυτό καθίσταται δυνατό.

Τέλος, η διατριβή θα κλείσει με τη διαφορετικότητα των γλωσσών, σε τι βαθμό αυτή υφίσταται και ποιος ακριβώς είναι ο ρόλος της γλώσσας στη διαμόρφωση της έννοιας του έθνους
description: Aim of the present master thesis was the presentation of Wilhelm von Humboldt’s philosophical structure concerning language. At first, it comes to the origin and creation of language with main accent to the inner and outer factors who lead to language’s manifestation. Afterwards, the distinctive function of language as formative tool of thought is presented, so in an individual as in a national level, as the means with which this is possible. Within this context passes of at first a presentation of language’s structure in both grammatical and syntactic level and then how these contribute to the accomplishment of self-conscience and individualization. Finally, the thesis ended with the dissimilarity of languages, in what extent does this exist and what exactly is the role of language concerning the conformation of nation’s concept

We provide a complete description of a certain flag of finite-dimensional spaces of spin functions preserved by the Hamiltonian of each model. By explicitly diagonalizing the Hamiltonian in the latter spaces, we compute several infinite families of eigenfunctions of the above models in closed form in terms of generalized Laguerre and Jacobi polynomials.

description: We study the deformation of a long cosmic string by a nearby rotating black hole. We examine whether the deformation of a cosmic string, induced by the gravitational field of a Kerr black hole, may lead to the formation of a loop of cosmic string. The segment of the string which enters the ergosphere of a rotating black hole gets deformed and, if it is sufficiently twisted, it can self-intersect chopping off a loop of cosmic string. We find that the formation of a loop, via this mechanism, is a rare event. It will only arise in a small region of the collision phase space, which depends on the string velocity, the impact parameter and the black hole angular momentum. We conclude that generically, the cosmic string is simply scattered or captured by the rotating black hole.

description: We analyze the frequency-rank relationship in sub-vocabularies corresponding to three different grammatical classes (nouns, verbs, and others) in a collection of literary works in English, whose words have been automatically tagged according to their grammatical role. Comparing with a null hypothesis which assumes that words belonging to each class are uniformly distributed across the frequency-ranked vocabulary of the whole work, we disclose statistically significant differences between the three classes. This results point to the fact that frequency-rank relationships may reflect linguistic features associated with grammatical function.

description: Cosmological consequences of a strictly valid total energy conservation for the whole universe are investigated in this paper. Interestingly enough as one consequence of ergodically behaving universes very specific scaling laws with the diameter R of the universe can be derived for relevant cosmic quantities. Especially the 1/R^2- scaling of mass - and vacuum energy - density then automatically leads to a vanishing cosmic curvature parameter k=0 and also reveals, that for such universes no horizon problem occurs. In addition the longstanding problem of observationally indicated very low cosmic vacuum energies in contrast to the very large quantumfield estimates is easily solved when the vacuum energy density decay with 1/R^2 is taken into account reconciling presently observed vacuum energy density values with those from theoretical expectations. We also suggest why the mass of the universe can permanently increase and can in fact grow up from a Planck mass as a pure vacuum fluctuation.

description: We investigate the mass spectra of exotic hadrons known as hexaquarks in the form of dibaryons. We use a phenomenological model based on an extended version of the Gürsey-Radicati mass formula for hadrons to include non-charmed baryons, charmed baryons, and non-strange dibaryons to be able to predict masses of potential dibaryon states. We perform six numerical fits of this model to input data for three different sets of masses of baryons and dibaryons. We find that the model can fit some of the data sets well, especially the sets including charmed baryons and non-strange dibaryons, and observe that the predicted mass of one of the dibaryons is close to the measured mass of the observed hexaquark candidate $d^*(2380)$ reported by the WASA-at-COSY experiment. The predicted mass of the deuteron is slightly larger than its measured mass. Finally, for the data sets including charmed baryon and non-strange dibaryon masses, we find that the predicted masses of potential dibaryon states are all in the range from 1900 MeV to 3700 MeV.

description: A lattice is called well-rounded if its minimal vectors span the corresponding Euclidean space. In this paper we completely describe well-rounded full-rank sublattices of ${\mathbb Z}^2$, as well as their determinant and minima sets. We show that the determinant set has positive density, deriving an explicit lower bound for it, while the minima set has density 0. We also produce formulas for the number of such lattices with a fixed determinant and with a fixed minimum. These formulas are related to the number of divisors of an integer in short intervals and to the number of its representations as a sum of two squares. We investigate the growth of the number of such lattices with a fixed determinant as the determinant grows, exhibiting some determinant sequences on which it is particularly large. To this end, we also study the behavior of the associated zeta function, comparing it to the Dedekind zeta function of Gaussian integers and to the Solomon zeta function of ${\mathbb Z}^2$. Our results extend automatically to well-rounded sublattices of any lattice $A {\mathbb Z}^2$, where A is an element of the real orthogonal group $O_2({\mathbb R})$.

description: Exact solutions for vibrational levels of diatomic molecules via the Morse potential are obtained by means of the asymptotic iteration method. It is shown that, the numerical results for the energy eigenvalues of $^{7}Li_{2}$ are all in excellent agreement with the ones obtained before. Without any loss of generality, other states and molecules could be treated in a similar way.

description: Nonadiabatic geometric quantum computation is dedicated to the realization of high-fidelity and robust quantum gates, which are necessary for fault-tolerant quantum computation. However, it is limited by cyclic and mutative evolution path, which usually requires longer gate-time and abrupt pulse control, weakening the gate performance. Here, we propose a scheme to realize geometric quantum gates with noncyclic and nonadiabatic evolution via invariant-based shortcuts, where universal quantum gates can be induced in one step without path mutation and the gate time is also effectively shortened. Our numerical simulations show that, comparing with the conventional dynamical gates, the constructed geometric gates have stronger resistance not only to systematic errors, induced by both qubit-frequency drift and the deviation of the amplitude of the driving fields, but also to environment-induced decoherence effect. In addition, our scheme can also be implemented on a superconducting circuit platform, with the fidelities of single-qubit and two-qubit gates are higher than 99.97$\%$ and 99.84$\%$, respectively. Therefore, our scheme provides a promising way to realize high-fidelity fault-tolerant quantum gates for scalable quantum computation.

A Parameterization Invariant Approach to the Statistical Estimation of the CKM Phase $α$

description: In contrast to previous analyses, we demonstrate a Bayesian approach to the estimation of the CKM phase $α$ that is invariant to parameterization. We also show that in addition to {\em computing} the marginal posterior in a Bayesian manner, the distribution must also be {\em interpreted} from a subjective Bayesian viewpoint. Doing so gives a very natural interpretation to the distribution. We also comment on the effect of removing information about $\mathcal{B}^{00}$.

description: Aspects of transmission electron goniometry are discussed. Combined with high resolution phase contrast transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and atomic resolution scanning TEM (STEM) in the atomic number contrast (Z-STEM) or the phase contrast bright field mode, transmission electron goniometry offers the opportunity to develop dedicated methods for the crystallographic characterization of nanocrystals in three dimensions. The relationship between transmission electron goniometry and electron tomography for materials science applications is briefly discussed. Internet based java applets that facilitate the application of transmission electron goniometry for cubic crystals with calibrated tilt-rotation and double-tilt specimen holders/goniometers are mentioned. The so called cubic-minimalistic tilt procedure for the determination of the lattice parameters of sub-stoichiometric WC1-x nanocrystals with halite structure is demonstrated. The freely (openly) accessible, Internet based, Crystallography Open Database (COD) is briefly discusses because the ability to determine the lattice parameters of nanocrystals opens up the possibility of identifying unknown phases by comparing these lattice constants to the entries of comprehensive databases. Correspondingly, a search of the determined lattice parameters in the COD is shown as part of a screen shot. The enhanced viability of transmission electron goniometry in TEMs (and STEMs) with aberration corrected electron optics is illustrated on the WC1-x model system.

description: Στην παρούσα εργασία διερευνάται ο αφηγηματικός λόγος ελληνόγλωσσων και δίγλωσσων μαθητών που βρίσκονται σε επικινδυνότητα για ειδικές διαταραχές λόγου και νοητική ανεπάρκεια. Πιο αναλυτικά στην επιλογή του δείγματος της έρευνας συμμετείχαν οι νηπιαγωγοί των παιδιών, με συμπλήρωση ερωτηματολογίου που εξέφραζαν την προσωπική τους εκτίμηση, για παιδιά που δυσκολεύονται στον λόγο. Το σύνολο των παιδιών που υπέδειξαν οι εκπαιδευτικοί, διακρίθηκε σε δυο μεγάλες κατηγορίες, στα παιδιά που βρίσκονται σε επικινδυνότητα για ειδικές διαταραχές λόγου και στα παιδιά που βρίσκονται σε επικινδυνότητα για νοητική ανεπάρκεια. Αφού συγκρίθηκαν, οι δυο ομάδες παιδιών εξετάστηκαν στην αφηγηματική τους ικανότητα μέσα από την αναδιήγηση ιστορίας και στη συνέχεια οι αφηγήσεις τους αξιολογήθηκαν με βάση το μοντέλο του Applebee, με σκοπό να διαπιστωθούν διαφορές μεταξύ των δυο ομάδων. Τέλος έγινε προσπάθεια να εντοπιστούν διαφοροποιήσεις ή όχι μεταξύ των απόψεων των νηπιαγωγών και των ομάδων (παιδιά με ειδικές διαταραχές λόγου και νοητική ανεπάρκεια) και μεταξύ των απόψεων των νηπιαγωγών και των αφηγηματικών σταδίων του Applebee
description: In this study, the narrative speech skills of Greek speaking as well as bilingual children, in danger of developing special language impairment and mental retardation are being investigated. In detail, the pre-school teachers participated in the selection of the sample, by filling out a questionnaire where they expressed their personal assessment in regard to children which face speech difficulties. The total of the children indicated by the educators, has been distinguished into two categories, namely those in danger of developing special language impairment and those in danger of mental retardation. After having been compared, the narrative speech skills of the two groups have been examined through story renarration and subsequently their narrations were assessed using the Applebee’s model, in order to discover differences between them. Finally an effort has been made to detect possible differentiations or the lack of them, between the pre-school teachers’ assessments and the groups (children with special language impairment and mental retardation) as well as between the pre-school teachers’ assessments and the Applebee’s narrative stages
