description: The Covid-19 pandemic has hampered the airline industry for a longer period of time than anticipated. After the sector began to recover in 2021, new waves of the virus and new travel restrictions prevented expansion. Despite new scars, this year global air transportation experienced delayed but sustained recovery. In the first months of 2022, global passenger traffic (RPK) recovered to 50% of pre-pandemic levels, but intercontinental traffic has a long way to go. Even beyond the massive disruptions caused by Covid-19, the air industry is poised for significant change. Threats for new pandemics, supply chain issues, staff shortages, decline in business travel, worries about global economy and geopolitical instability, are only a few points of concern. In addition, climate change policies regulatory updates, and technology advancements will likely lead to changes in the manner in which the industry conducts its business.

description: We study the spherically symmetric gravitational collapse of massless scalar matter field in asymptotic flat spacetime in $f(R)$ gravity. In the Einstein frame of $f(R)$ gravity, an additional scalar field arises due to the conformal transformation. We find that besides the usual competition between gravitational energy and kinetic energy in the process of gravitational collapse, the new scalar field brought by the conformal transformation adds one more competing force in the dynamical system. The dynamical competition can be controlled by tuning the amplitudes of the initial perturbations of the new scalar field and the matter field. To understand the physical reasons behind these phenomena, we analyze the gravitational potential behavior and calculate the Ricci scalar at center with the change of initial amplitudes of perturbations. We find rich physics on the formation of black holes through gravitational collapse in $f(R)$ gravity.

description: We determine the thermal conductance of thin niobium (Nb) wires on a silica substrate in the temperature range of 0.1 - 0.6 K using electron thermometry based on normal metal-insulator-superconductor tunnel junctions. We find that at 0.6 K, the thermal conductance of Nb is two orders of magnitude lower than that of Al in the superconducting state, and two orders of magnitude below the Wiedemann-Franz conductance calculated with the normal state resistance of the wire. The measured thermal conductance exceeds the prediction of the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer theory, and demonstrates a power law dependence on temperature as $T^{4.5}$, instead of an exponential one. At the same time, we monitor the temperature profile of the substrate along the Nb wire to observe possible overheating of the phonon bath. We show that Nb can be successfully used for thermal insulation in a nanoscale circuit while simultaneously providing an electrical connection.

description: CHI papers researching healthcare human-computer interaction (HCI) are increasingly reporting the use of “thematic analysis” (TA).TA refers to a range of fexible and evolving approaches for qualitative data analysis. Its increased use demonstrates a change in research practices, and with that the emergence of new local standards. We need to understand and refect upon these emerging local practices, including departures from what is advocated as quality TA practice more generally. Toward this, we conducted a scoping review of a decade of CHI publications (2012 – 2021) that researched healthcare and termed their analysis approach “thematic analysis”; 78 papers reporting a total of 100 TAs were included. We contribute a description of 1) the contexts in which TA is being used, 2) the TA approaches being conducted, and 3) how TA is being reported. Drawing on this, we discuss opportunities to improve research practice when using TA in healthcare HCI.

description: We consider the problem of inferring a grammar describing the output of a functional program given a grammar describing its input. Solutions to this problem are helpful for detecting bugs or proving safety properties of functional programs, and several rewriting tools exist for solving this problem. However, known grammar inference techniques are not able to take evaluation strategies of the program into account. This yields very imprecise results when the evaluation strategy matters. In this work, we adapt the Tree Automata Completion algorithm to approximate accurately the set of terms reachable by rewriting under the innermost strategy. We formally prove that the proposed technique is sound and precise w.r.t. innermost rewriting. We show that those results can be extended to the leftmost and rightmost innermost case. The algorithms for the general innermost case have been implemented in the Timbuk reachability tool. Experiments show that it noticeably improves the accuracy of static analysis for functional programs using the call-by-value evaluation strategy.

description: The deep-sea habitat is a source of very potent marine-derived agents that may inhibit the growth of human cancer cells “in vitro” and “in vivo”. Salinosporamide-A, Marizomib, by Salinispora species is a proteasome inhibitor with promising anticancer activity (Phase I/II trials). Different deep-sea-derived drugs are under preclinical evaluation. Cancer is a complex disease that may be represented by network medicine. A simple consequence is the change of the concept of target entity from a single protein to a whole molecular pathway and or cellular network. Deep-sea-derived drugs fit well to this new concept.

description: Il contributo focalizza l’attenzione su una struttura difensiva di età altomedievale, un tempo localizzata nei pressi dell’attuale città di Sant’Antioco (Sardegna, Italia) e oggi scomparsa. Attraverso una disamina delle fonti archeologiche, storiche e delle affinità architettoniche rintracciabili attraverso il confronto tra le riproduzioni superstiti del complesso e le vestigia degli omologhi edifici in Africa, lo studio mira a ricostruire quali possano essere state le cause della sua realizzazione, proponendo di identificarle come il conflitto tra Bizantini e Mauri all’indomani della riconquista dell’Africa da parte di Bisanzio (prima metà del VI secolo). The paper aims to enlight the origin of a defence structure dated to the high Middle Age, originally located near the actual population of the city of Sant’Antioco (Sardinia, Italy) and actually gone. By a study of the archaeological, historical witnesses and the comparison between the architectural peculiarities of the castrum and the survived traces of its homologous structures in Africa, the paper tries to reconstruct what would have been the causes for its construction, proposing to identify them in the conflict between Byzantines and Moors after the Byzantine conquest of Africa during the first half of the VI century A.D.

description: The critical properties of the phase transition from a normal gas to a BEC (superfluid) of a harmonically confined Bose gas are addressed with the knowledge of an equation of state of the underlying homogeneous Bose fluid. It is shown that while the presence of the confinement trap arrests the usual divergences of the isothermal compressibility and heat capacities, the critical behavior manifests itself now in the divergence of derivatives of the mentioned susceptibilities. This result is illustrated with a mean-field like model of an equation of state for the homogeneous particle density as a function of the chemical potential and temperature of the gas. The model assumes the form of an ideal Bose gas in the normal fluid while in the superfluid state a function is proposed such that, both, asymptotically reaches the Thomas-Fermi solution of a weakly interacting Bose gas at large densities and low temperatures and, at the transition, matches the critical properties of the ideal Bose gas. With this model we obtain the {\it global} thermodynamics of the harmonically confined gas, from which we analyze its critical properties. We discuss how these properties can be experimentally tested.

description: Il contributo intende chiarire le vicende legate alla realizzazione dell’opera Madonna di Loreto con i santi Tommaso d’Aquino e Carlo Borromeo del 1618, custodita nella chiesa di San Tommaso Apostolo di Offagna. La ricerca ha permesso di proporre il reverendo Antioco Bentivogli, già noto agli studiosi per avere intrattenuto uno scambio epistolare con Galileo Galilei su temi scientifici, come committente della tela, esposta nella cappella dedicata alla Vergine lauretana, patronata dalla famiglia Bentivogli dal 1617 fino al XVIII secolo. L’iconografia della tela, in linea con le riforme promosse dal Concilio di Trento e applicate dal Cardinale Antonio Maria Gallo durante il suo mandato vescovile nella diocesi di Osimo, rivela delle correlazioni con le nuove notizie biografiche del reverendo. Sulla base del confronto stilistico si suggerisce l’attribuzione della tela al pittore fiammingo Ernst Van Schayck (Utrecht 1575 – Macerata 1632), che un documento d’archivio inedito afferma essere presente a Osimo in quegli anni. This paper seeks to clarify the events related to the painting of the Madonna di Loreto with Saints Thomas Aquinas and Carlo Borromeo (1618), located in the church of Saint Thomas the Apostle in Offagna. The research allowed to suggest that Reverend Antioco Bentivogli, already known to scholars for his exchange of letters with Galileo Galilei about scientific issues, commissioned this artwork. Such painting was located in the chapel dedicated to the “Vergine lauretana”, under the patronage of the Bentivogli family from 1617 until XVIII century. The iconography of the painting, in line with the reforms promoted by the Council of Trento and applied by Cardinal Antonio Maria Gallo during his episcopal mandate in the diocese of Osimo, reveals relations with the latest biographical findings regarding the Reverend. Based on the style comparison, it is suggested that the painting is ascribed to the Flemish painter Ernst Van Schayck (Utrecht 1575 – Macerata 1632), who is claimed, according to an unedited archive paper, to have lived in Osimo in those years.

description: We present a thorough stability analysis of modified gravity theories in the presence of matter fields. We use the Effective Field Theory framework for Dark Energy and Modified Gravity to retain a general approach for the gravity sector and a Sorkin-Schutz action for the matter one. Then, we work out the proper viability conditions to guarantee in the scalar sector the absence of ghosts, gradient and tachyonic instabilities. The absence of ghosts can be achieved by demanding a positive kinetic matrix, while the lack of a gradient instability is ensured by imposing a positive speed of propagation for all the scalar modes. In case of tachyonic instability, the mass eigenvalues have been studied and we work out the appropriate expressions. For the latter, an instability occurs only when the negative mass eigenvalue is much larger, in absolute value, than the Hubble parameter. We discuss the results for the minimally coupled quintessence model showing for a particular set of parameters two typical behaviours which in turn lead to a stable and an unstable configuration. Moreover, we find that the speeds of propagation of the scalar modes strongly depend on matter densities, for the beyond Horndeski theories. Our findings can be directly employed when testing modified gravity theories as they allow to identify the correct viability space.

description: All certified Aerodromes require to implement Safety Management System (SMS) from November 2005 according to the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) requirements. Nowadays safety risk assessment in aerodromes with main operational scopes has been a critical issue in the aviation industry. The current SMS model is no more sufficient to comply with this complexity and cover all aspects of aerodrome factors quantitatively. A new model for aerodrome safety risk assessment to evaluate Aerodrome’s safety riskbased on the Entropy method is developed in this research. In this new method, critical criteria and their sub-criteria are developed and then assess the safety risk. One Aerodromes (as a case study) is considered and the weight of criteria and sub-criteria are measured based on Entropy technique and aerodrome safety performance is assessed. The first phase was the weight measurement of criteria by the Entropy method, and then evaluate related safety performance. Based on the safety risk assessment result, the aviation experts were interviewed to verify the result, which supported our research outcomes. The result of this research should guide aviation SMS experts to take proper safety mitigations to prevent any safety events in aerodromes.

description: Coordination is essential for dynamic distributed systems whose components exhibit interactive and autonomous behaviors. Spatially distributed, locally interacting, propagating computational fields are particularly appealing for allowing components to join and leave with little or no overhead. Computational fields are a key ingredient of aggregate programming, a promising software engineering methodology particularly relevant for the Internet of Things. In our approach, space topology is represented by a fixed graph-shaped field, namely a network with attributes on both nodes and arcs, where arcs represent interaction capabilities between nodes. We propose a SMuC calculus where mu-calculus- like modal formulas represent how the values stored in neighbor nodes should be combined to update the present node. Fixpoint operations can be understood globally as recursive definitions, or locally as asynchronous converging propagation processes. We present a distributed implementation of our calculus. The translation is first done mapping SMuC programs into normal form, purely iterative programs and then into distributed programs. Some key results are presented that show convergence of fixpoint computations under fair asynchrony and under reinitialization of nodes. The first result allows nodes to proceed at different speeds, while the second one provides robustness against certain kinds of failure. We illustrate our approach with a case study based on a disaster recovery scenario, implemented in a prototype simulator that we use to evaluate the performance of a recovery strategy.

Cisterne e pozzi, tipici di molte civiltà rupestri del Mediterraneo, sono stati studiati attraverso fonti bibliografiche e d’archivio. Le strutture idrauliche sono risultate strettamente correlate alle caratteristiche idro-geomorfologiche dei luoghi e rappresentano l’esempio di una profonda conoscenza del territorio e della sua gestione virtuosa. La relazione tra l'approvvigionamento idrico e il paesaggio (studiato da un punto di vista geografico, idrogeologico e litologico) ha permesso una lettura integrata delle forme naturali e antropiche delle antiche reti idriche. / The aim of the present research is the knowledge of the ancient hydraulic systems for water supply at the Materan Sassi in the Basilicata region (Southern Italy), before the advent of modern aqueduct. An up-to-date knowledge on Materan ancient hydraulic technology is not available, despite underground cisterns, wells and canals contributed to the city's inscription on the World Heritage List in 1993). Cisterns and wells, typical of many Mediterranean rock civilizations, are an example of a deep knowledge of the territory and its potential and virtuous management. In fact, the hydraulic structures differ according to the hydro-geomorphological characteristics of the places For this reason, the relationship between water supply and landscape (studied from a geographic, hydrogeological and lithological point of view) will be analyzed, to promote an integrated reading of the natural and anthropogenic forms of water networks.

title: Ribbon-wearing : a sociocultural investigation
Creators: name: Moore, Sarah
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2023

description: Ribbon-Wearing: A Sociocultural Investigation explores the sociological significance of 'awareness' ribbons, such as those worn for AIDS or breast cancer, in contemporary British society. The thesis discusses the ribbon's place in the culture, examines the meanings that ribbon-wearers attach to the symbol, considers the social and cultural context out of which awareness campaigns emerged, and integrates these analyses into a critique of the project of 'showing awareness'. The work is based upon primary data collected from in-depth interviews, participant observation and questionnaires, as well as a wide range of secondary data, including political speeches, newspaper and magazine articles, films, and novels. Using the work of sociologists such as Giddens, Goffman, Sennett, and Beck and Beck-Gernsheim, Ribbon-Wearing provides a wide-ranging analysis and includes discussions on, among other topics, the lived-experience of risk, the nature of contemporary mourning practices, the sociology of compassion, the marketing discourse of charities, and the relationship between 'awareness' and consumerism. These various points of discussion also work toward a more general assessment of contemporary British society and culture. In particular, my work points to a two-way social trend in which a heightened interest in personal authenticity is coupled with a widespread distrust and repudiation of social institutions. This social current is traced back to the counter-cultural period of the 1960s and 1970s, a time during which a desire for self-fulfilment and cynicism about social authorities became particularly marked.

The calculation of single-nucleon energies of nuclei by considering two-body effective interaction, n(k,rho), and a Hartree-Fock inspired scheme

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)

description: The nucleon single-particle energies (SPEs) of the selected nuclei, that is, 16O, 40Ca, and 56Ni, are obtained by using the diagonal matrix elements of two-body effective interaction, which generated through the lowest order constrained variational (LOCV) calculations for the symmetric nuclear matter with the AV18 phenomenological nucleon-nucleon potential. The SPEs at the major levels of nuclei are calculated by employing a Hartree-Fock inspired scheme in the spherical harmonic oscillator basis. In the scheme, the correlation influences are taken into account by imposing the nucleon effective mass factor on the radial wave functions of the major levels. Replacing the density-dependent one-body momentum distribution functions of nucleons, n(k,rho), with the Heaviside functions, the role of n(k,rho) on the nucleon SPEs at the major levels of the selected closed shell nuclei, is investigated. The best fit of spin-orbit splitting is taken into account when correcting the major levels of the nuclei by using the parameterized Wood-Saxon potential and the AV18 density-dependent mean field potential which is constructed by the LOCV method. Considering the point-like protons in the spherical Coulomb potential well, the single-proton energies are corrected. The results show the importance of including n(k,rho), instead of the Heaviside functions, in the calculation of nucleon SPEs at the different levels, particularly the valence levels, of the closed shell nuclei.

description: Since the EU introduced Regulation (EC) No 1107/2006 to support access and reduce barriers for People with Disabilities (PwD). Member States of the EU, and their respective Departments of Transport, have had the responsibility to ensure the Regulation is adopted, complied with, and evidenced at airports. This paper assesses to what extent the aviation sector in the EU, particularly the UK, is carrying out its legal obligations and whether a new ethos towards disabled travellers has been created because of regulations both at EU and national level since 2006. The conclusion drawn from legislation, the courts, and changes to airport infrastructure, show that whilst improvements have been made to enable access and reduce barriers for PwD, it will take a number of years and a greater desire from the sector to ensure equality for disabled passengers.

description: The time evolution governed by the Boltzmann kinetic equation is compatible with mechanics and thermodynamics. The former compatibility is mathematically expressed in the Hamiltonian and Godunov structures, the latter in the structure of gradient dynamics guaranteeing the growth of entropy and consequently the approach to equilibrium. We carry all three structures to the Grad reformulation of the Boltzmann equation (to the Grad hierarchy). First, we recognize the structures in the infinite Grad hierarchy and then in several examples of finite hierarchies representing extended hydrodynamic equations. In the context of Grad's hierarchies we also investigate relations between Hamiltonian and Godunov structures.

description: L’articolo prende in esame un dipinto poco noto di Giacinto Boccanera (Leonessa 1666 – Perugia 1746), raffigurante San Bevignate, a seguito della recente scoperta dell’opera in una sala del palazzo vescovile. Il dipinto è firmato e datato 1707, colmando una lacuna in questa fase della carriera del pittore di cui, stando all’attuale stato degli studi, pochissime opere risultano note. Il dipinto viene contestualizzato nel percorso artistico del pittore attraverso confronti stilistici con altre sue opere realizzate a Perugia e ne viene ricostruita la storia attraverso la scoperta di una serie di documenti inediti, conservati presso l’Archivio di Stato di Perugia e l’Archivio Capitolare di San Lorenzo. Le ricerche d’archivio sono state condotte con l’obiettivo di ricostruire delle ipotesi per la committenza e i passaggi di proprietà del dipinto stesso, un ex-voto commissionato in seguito ad una guarigione miracolosa. The article examines a little known painting by Giacinto Boccanera (Leonessa 1666 – Perugia 1746) representing San Bevignate, following the recent discovery of the work in a room of the bishop’s palace. Signed and dated 1707, the painting fills a gap in this phase of the painter’s career, from which very few works are known. The painting is contextualized in the painter’s artistic production through stylistic comparisons with other works he painted in Perugia and its history is reconstructed through the discovery of a series of unpublished documents, preserved in the State Archives of Perugia and the Chapter. Archives of San Lorenzo. Research was carried out in the archives with the aim of reconstructing hypotheses regarding the commissioning and passages of ownership of the painting, a work commissioned after a miraculous recovery.

description: This work aims to: 1) explore the experiential dimensions of visiting a cultural city, through the Pine and Gilmore model (1999) and 2) understand whether the experiential components vary depending on the socio-demographic and behavioral characteristics of the respondents, the perception of the quality of the basic services and the hospitality of the residents. To this end, a preliminary study was undertaken, based on data collected for a previous research on tourism in Urbino. The main research findings suggest that the positive experience of visiting Urbino is mainly linked to the experiential components of the aesthetic type, while the negative aspects of the tourist experience derive from the lack of basic services. Concerning the perception of the experiencescape components, three findings emerge: 1) the sociodemographic and behavioral profile of tourists does not affect the perception of the experiential dimensions; 2) the perception of the quality of tourist services affects the intensity of the experiential components; 3) the lack of hospitality affects the perception of the experiential dimensions connected to aesthetics. Il lavoro ha lo scopo di: 1) esplorare le dimensioni esperienziali della visita di una città d’arte utilizzando il modello proposto da Pine e Gilmore nel 1999; 2) capire se le componenti esperienziali che caratterizzano l’esperienza turistica di visita di una città culturale variano in base alle caratteristiche socio-demografiche e comportamentali degli intervistati, alla percezione della qualità dei servizi di base e all’ospitalità dei residenti. A tale scopo, è stato condotto uno studio preliminare basato sui dati raccolti per una precedente ricerca sul turismo di Urbino. I principali risultati di questa ricerca suggeriscono che l’esperienza di visita culturale di Urbino è legata in particolare alle componenti esperienziali di tipo estetico, mentre gli aspetti negativi dell’esperienza del visitatore nascono in relazione alla carenza dei servizi di base. Con riferimento alle relazioni con le componenti dell’experiencescape emerge che: 1) il profilo sociodemografico e comportamentale dei turisti non incide sulla percezione delle dimensioni esperienziali; 2) la percezione della qualità dei servizi turistici incide sull’intensità delle componenti esperienziali; 3) la mancanza di ospitalità incide sulla percezione delle dimensioni esperienziali connesse all’estetica.

description: Il Museo di Antropologia ed Etnografia del Sistema Museale di Ateneo dell’Università degli Studi di Torino è chiuso al pubblico da più di trenta anni e questa inacessibilità ha contribuito sia a una mancata valorizzazione delle collezioni sia alla dispersione di molte informazioni che le riguardano. In occasione del suo recente trasferimento e del suo prossimo riallestimento, il Museo ha avviato uno studio sull’intero patrimonio (molto eterogeneo per provenienza e tipologia) favorito anche dalla partecipazione a eventi espositivi o a specifici progetti di ricerca. In particolare, il presente contributo vuole restituire le ricerche realizzate di recente sulle raccolte arrivate a Torino a inizio Novecento grazie alla Missione Archeologica Italiana in Egitto, attraverso un approccio multidisciplinare che coinvolge antropologi fisici e culturali, storici ed egittologi, con l’obiettivo di ricostruire un’importante pagina dimenticata del MAET. The Museum of Anthropology and Ethnography of the University Museum System of the Torino University has been kept closed for more than thirty years: this fact has not contributed to the promotion of the collections while has contributed to the loss of much information. When the museum was transferred and reorganized, a study on the entire heritage (very heterogeneous both in terms of origin and in terms of type) has been launched; it has also been fostered by the participation of the Museum in exhibition events or specific research projects. In particular, the present contribution aims to restore recent researches on the collections that the Italian Archaeological Mission in Egypt brought in Turin in the early twentieth century. The mission had a multidisciplinary approach that involved both physical and cultural anthropologists, historians and Egyptologists whose main goal was to restore an important chapter of the MAET.

description: INTRODUCTION: Detecting functional decline from normal ageing to dementia is relevant for diagnostic and prognostic purposes. Therefore, the Amsterdam IADL Questionnaire (A-IADL-Q) was developed: a 70-item proxy-based tool with good psychometric properties. We aimed to design a short version whilst preserving its psychometric quality. METHODS: Study partners of subjects (n=1355), ranging from cognitively normal to dementia subjects, completed the original A-IADL-Q. We selected the short version items using a stepwise procedure combining missing data, Item Response Theory and input from respondents and experts. We investigated internal consistency of the short version as well as concordance with the original version. To assess its construct validity, we additionally investigated concordance between the short version and the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and Disability Assessment for Dementia (DAD). Lastly, we investigated differences in IADL scores between diagnostic groups across the dementia spectrum. RESULTS: We selected 30 items covering the entire spectrum of IADL functioning. Internal consistency (.98) and concordance with the original version (.97) were very high. Concordance with the MMSE (.72) and DAD (.87) scores was high. IADL impairment scores increased across the spectrum from normal cognition to dementia. DISCUSSION: The A-IADL-Q Short Version (A-IADL-Q-SV) consists of 30 items. The A-IADL-Q-SV has maintained the psychometric quality of the original A-IADL-Q. As such, it is a concise measure of functional decline.

Astrophysical Inference in the Data Driven Era

description: In the past, astronomers like Ptolemy and Galileo were able to observe a few planets and stars with their naked eyes and a couple of primitive instruments. Nowadays, astronomy is experiencing an explosion of data and observations. Modern observatories produce petabytes of data, and the simulations to model these observations push computers to their limits. Processing and synthesizing this data is a major challenge in astrophysics. Thanks to statistical approaches, we can make astrophysical inferences from our data. This dissertation shows how a particular statistical technique, Bayesian Inference, can be utilised to reveal previously unknown insights about the cosmos.
«Recubo praesepis ad antrum»: The Cult of Saint Jerome in the Church of Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome at the End of the 13th Century

description: This paper analyzes the setting up of the cult of Saint Jerome in Rome at the end of the 13th century in the papal basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore. It observes the development of the cult as part of the renovations of the church during the pontificate of Nicholas IV and the patronage of the Colonna family. It argues that it happened during the process of Franciscanization of the church and making the ideological axis between the Roman basilica and new papal basilica in Assisi, stressed also in their pictorial decorations – the mosaics in the apse in Rome, and the Life of Saint Francis in Assisi. It also studies the construction of Jerome’s Roman identity in correlation with the confirmation of Santa Maria Maggiore church as a “second Bethlehem” after the fall of the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem, reflecting upon the leading proponents of the idea, architectural setting, artistic production and hagiographical texts produced to uphold this idea. Il presente saggio analizza la formazione del culto di San Gerolamo a Roma presso la basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore al termine del XIII secolo e indaga lo sviluppo di questo culto in seno ai restauri della chiesa avvenuti durante il pontificato di Nicola IV e il patrocinio della famiglia Colonna. Si mette inoltre in evidenza come tale fenomeno sia avvenuto durante il processo di francescanizzazione della chiesa e la costruzione di un asse ideologico tra la basilica romana e la nuova basilica papale di Assisi, che è evidente anche nelle loro decorazioni pittoriche: i mosaici nell’abside di Roma e la vita di San Francesco ad Assisi. Inoltre, si studia la costruzione dell’identità romana di Girolamo in relazione alla conferma della chiesa di Santa Maria Maggiore come “seconda Betlemme”, dopo la caduta del Regno latino di Gerusalemme, riflettendo sui principali sostenitori di questa tesi, dell’architettura, della produzione artistica e di testi agiografici elaborati per sostenere questa idea.

description: The finding of Gravitational Waves by the aLIGO scientific and VIRGO collaborations opens opportunities to better test and understand strong interactions, both nuclear-hadronic and gravitational. Assuming General Relativity holds, one can constrain hadron physics at a neutron star. But precise knowledge of the Equation of State and transport properties in hadron matter can also be used to constrain the theory of gravity itself. I review a couple of these opportunities in the context of modified f(R) gravity, the maximum mass of neutron stars, and progress in the Equation of State of neutron matter from the chiral effective field theory of QCD.
