“Cittadinanza è parola antica, segno di un sapere strutturato nell’arco di una lunga tradizione che, tuttavia, non cessa di essere soggetta a numerosi quanto recenti ripensamenti. All’interno dell’ordinamento giuridico statale, infatti, il suo carattere fondativo – quale presupposto per il riconoscimento di diritti – è posto in crisi per la presenza di diversi fattori, ora interni al sistema, ora di natura sovranazionale. Il volume, dalla prospettiva dichiaratamente interdisciplinare, si propone di offrire una panoramica dei molti contesti in cui la cittadinanza vede mutare i suoi significati più tradizionali e di contribuire alla discussione scientifica sulle possibilità innovative che si possono comunque raggiungere in tali trasformazioni. Dai nessi tra ordine economico-sociale e ordine giuridico-politico alla dimensione europea della soggettività giuridica; dalla disciplina dell’immigrazione alle politiche pubbliche fondate sulla residenzialità; dai modi della partecipazione attiva del cittadino alla cosa pubblica ai problemi definitori e istituzionali affrontati dagli studi di genere: i saggi qui riuniti testimoniano l’interesse della Facoltà trentina per gli importanti e trasversali orizzonti di ricerca che il dibattito sulla cittadinanza rilancia e rinnova con particolare urgenza”.

Conversational Agent for Health Coaching

Poor diet and physical inactivity are two of the biggest healthcare challenges we are facing, and are related to individuals lifestyle. In fact, a poor lifestyle is strongly correlated to chronic diseases, the leading causes for morbidity and mortality. Adhering to a healthy diet and following an active lifestyle are thus necessary to promote the overall health. However, maintaining a healthy diet and physically active lifestyle is hard. This is due to poor health literacy, lack of awareness, motivation and effective intervention support. Recent years have seen a blast of mHealth apps for health promotion, targeting in particular dietary behavior change. However, reviews showed difficulties in effective adoption and use of these applications in long-term health promotion. Contemporary approaches have focused on tracking user condition and few have analyzed aspects of user interaction with the system. To promote individuals health, users can benefit from some form of tailored guidance or coaching. That said, to ensure adequate users support, personalized care with a human agent in the loop can enhance the care delivery. Due to the increasing demand for continuous care by users and the shortage of caregiver resources, current health services are inefficient relative to user support and decreasing caregivers workload. Digital health devices can act as a key player in providing interactive health activities (via mobile and telemedicine systems), enhancing self-monitoring (through wearable tracker) and tailored coaching (using either automated or manual coaching systems). However, they’re ineffective in providing continuous health services and creating a balance between users support and caregivers workload. In addition, even with the technology existence, there is low motivation to maintain a healthy diet or exercise routines. Individuals use messaging applications as part of their regular daily routines. We harness the power of messaging chatbot systems to provide behavior change interventions for healthy lifestyle promotion. We particularly introduce the role of chatbot in task automation and adhering users to a health plan. Thus, in this thesis we present the concept of "Conversational User Interface in Health Coaching Interventions" that consists of a just-in-time health services to users and caregivers. We discuss ways to integrate the chatbot to assist caregivers with their tasks and support users with their condition. We get users to cue themselves to action by attaching the chatbot with users’ daily messaging routines. The service will eliminate the technology barrier and impairment for the users i.e., elderly. The chatbot accesses reliable user compliance data, sets adherence reminders by condition, and reports daily individuals adherence. The chatbot alerts the coach through a web application in critical cases. The approach facilitates adherence to health interventions by investigating a human-virtual agent mediated coaching approach on user motivation to adhere to the health promotion plan. The approach was validated with different experimentation phases. Using multiple research methods, this dissertation has made several contributions to the understanding of user motivation and the role of a semi-automated system with a human and virtual agent in tracking individuals with poor lifestyle. We will discuss the main contributions and experimentation results throughout the thesis.

The aim of the paper is to study the characteristics of different 3D digital models (point clouds, mesh, CSG, BIM) for the realization of a museum of historical buildings widespread in the territory of South Tyrol through the 3D modeling of several farmhouses between the towns of Collalbo, Longomoso and Siffiano, in the Renon area. Therefore, moving from a defined case study, the paper proposes a workflow for model choice, use, and sharing considering also users profile.The objective is to create a system that allows, the sharing, both on site and remotely, of farmhouses digital models, information, images and documents found during the research. The purpose is to enhance the territory with the promotion of its knowledge taking into account also the importance of the participative aspects. In fact, in this system, are crucial and are a fundamental part of the safeguarding process, effectively increasing the information content and filling any information gaps, allowing the system to grow and become increasingly considerable and effective for the knowledge, documentation and enhancement of the territory.

We are interested in aligning how people think about objects and what machines perceive, meaning by this the fact that object recognition, as performed by a machine, should follow a process which resembles that followed by humans when thinking of an object associated with a certain concept. The ultimate goal is to build systems which can meaningfully interact with their users, describing what they perceive in the users' own terms. As from the field of Lexical Semantics, humans organize the meaning of words in hierarchies where the meaning of, e.g., a noun, is defined in terms of the meaning of a more general noun, its genus, and of one or more differentiating properties, its differentia. The main tenet of this paper is that object recognition should implement a hierarchical process which follows the hierarchical semantic structure used to define the meaning of words. We achieve this goal by implementing an algorithm which, for any object, recursively recognizes its visual genus and its visual differentia. In other words, the recognition of an object is decomposed in a sequence of steps where the locally relevant visual features are recognized. This paper presents the algorithm and a first evaluation.

Some recent results in linear scalar quantum field theory in globally hyperbolic asymptotically flat spacetimes
Moretti, Valter
Moretti, Valter
This work concerns some recent results obtained by the author and collaborators about QFT in asymptotically flat spacetimes at infinity. In particular it is shown that bosonic QFT can be defined on the boundary =+ of any asymptotically flat spacetime M. This theory admits a state which is uniquely determined from invariance under BMS group and a BMS-energy positivity requirement. There is a nice interplay with bosonic (massless, conformally coupled) QFT defined in the bulk spacetime. In particular, under suitable further requirements, the universal state induces in the bulk spacetime M a state, M, which enjoys the following remarkable properties. It reduces to standard Minkowski vacuum whenever M is Minkowski spacetime and in the general case, it is invariant under the group of isometries of the spacetime M, it is a ground state (i.e. it satisfies the positive energy condition) with respect to any timelike Killing time of M without zero-modes, finally M enjoys the global Hadamard property so that it is suitable for locally covariant perturbative renormalization procedures.

Economic Growth and Public Debt: Beyond Debt-Thresholds. Theoretical and Empirical Issues.

The idea that public debt may represent a burden for the economic system as a whole has distant origins and focuses on who and how should pay for debt, and with what consequences on the economy. Nevertheless, particularly influential both for academic research and the implementation of the fiscal corrective policies was the empirical paper proposed by Reinhart and Rogoff in 2010 at the dawn of the crisis. Reinhart and Rogoff (2010), in a large panel of countries, identified a critical threshold of 90% of the debt-to-GDP ratio beyond which debt is harmful to growth. Several countries in the world were fast approaching that threshold or already were well beyond it. Though Reinhart and Rogoff’s work was affected by many flaws, it has spurred buoyant empirical research in search of the general debt thresholds above which growth is jeopardised by public debt. Further works have supported the existence of critical debt-to-GDP ratios under various time and space observational fields, but results of these researches are inconclusive or controversial, as discussed in Chapter 2. Country-specific characteristics and contingencies play in fact a prominent role, thus prompting a branch of literature that attempts to comprehensively understand the debt-growth relationship and its determinants (see for instance Panizza and Presbitero, 2014; Eberhardt and Presbitero, 2015). In contrast with the findings of the broad threshold literature and of many theoretical models, the idea that public debt is always harmful to economic growth has partially been reconsidered in the last few years. Nevertheless, the existence of a linkage between debt and growth has not been rejected: the long-run relationship between such macroeconomic variables is inevitably and broadly affected by heterogeneous factors. However, in retrospect and as emerges in Chapter 1, one may say that the empirical pursuit of the debt-to-GDP threshold harmful to growth lacks deeper foundational work: why should we expect a negative public debt-growth relationship? In addition, if such a relationship exists, why should it take the specific form of a threshold of the debt-to-GDP ratio, and why should we expect this threshold to be equally valid across time and space? These questions are the starting point of this Doctoral Thesis, which is organised as follows. Chapter 1 surveys the theoretical literature concerning public debt and economic growth, aiming at finding a theoretical foundation for the debt-threshold literature. Overall, there is no clear and straightforward answer to the questions of why we should expect a negative public debt-growth relationship in the first place, why it should take the specific form of a threshold of the debt-to-GDP ratio, and why we should expect this threshold to be equally valid across time and space. Or, from another perspective, there are many possible answers and many elements affecting them, thus reflecting the complexity of the argument, as well as the variety of the empirical situations. In particular, the literature that I examine, on the one hand offers a rich variety of explanations and insights to researchers of the debt-growth relationship but, on the other, it does not provide any one-way conclusion: the relationship may be negative, positive, or even no relationship may exist, both from a theoretical and an empirical point of view. Even less is theoretically founded the existence of a general debt-to-GDP threshold above which growth is consistently stifled. Each country’s specific characteristics, circumstances, and events have an overwhelming importance that cannot be encapsulated in a single general law. In Chapter 1, I also present a fiscal model of endogenous growth that may help address the theoretical issues in an orderly and consistent manner along two specific coordinates of debt assessment: sustainability/unsustainability, and efficiency/inefficiency. The thrust of the model is that no meaningful assessment of debt and its effect on growth at any point in time is possible without reference to the whole debt trajectory and the specific state of the economy along the trajectory. Chapter 2 reviews the empirical literature and focuses on the debt-growth relationship from an econometric point of view. As before, it is difficult to derive a univocal conclusion on the nature of such a relationship on the basis of the literature’s findings: the existence of a significant negative relationship between debt and growth is the predominant thinking, though in contrast with the conclusions of several works. For these reasons, the aim of Chapter 2 is to go to the roots of the debt-growth relationship, to investigate whether the outstanding debt and the GDP are linked. To this end, I have adopted a research methodology that differs from the most common employed in the literature on debt-to-GDP thresholds. First, my analysis does not hinge on any specific theory, and it should not be considered as a proof of a specific theoretical statement. Rather, it is based on the approach outlined by Hoover et al. (2008) and aims at understanding "what the data say" without imposing aprioristic theoretical structures. A second methodological choice consistent with this approach is to treat the (growth of the) amount of public debt and (the growth of) GDP as the two genuine primitives, without imposing the debt-to-GDP ratio as a primitive itself. In fact, for this to be possible, the two underlying primitives should display well defend statistical properties, namely cointegration and convergence towards a long-term equilibrium value, which are usually not tested in the literature. Third, I believe that the heterogeneity, or non-generality, of results that I have pointed out before should be taken as an intrinsic feature of the problem at hand, so that a viable strategy is to restrict, rather than expand, the observational field. I have set time and space limits to my dataset by purpose: my analysis is based on a panel dataset including quarterly data for 25 Eastern and Western European countries from 1999Q1 to 2015Q4. The Eurozone represents a unique "field experiment" of a large number of countries where some key conditioning factors of fiscal policy are common and exogenous, namely fiscal targets and rules, monetary policy, and the exchange rate with the rest of the world. The main result is that a long-run equilibrium relationship between GDP and debt exists for some countries ? and debt and GDP tend to adjust towards it ? but it is not generalisable. Where a relationship exists, it does not always imply that the debt-to-GDP ratio may be the appropriate variable for describing it. Moreover, cross-country heterogeneity and the role of the financial crisis and of the austerity periods remain substantial and overwhelming factors. Therefore, a unique equation describing the GDP-debt relationship does not seem to exist, which entails the impossibility to derive a meaningful general debt-to-GDP threshold. Thus far I have focused on the general relationship between debt and growth from both the theoretical and the empirical points of view. Turning to the analysis of the Sovereign Debt Crisis and of the austerity period, Chapter 3 attempts to explain what has driven austerity ? measured as the first difference of the cyclically adjusted structural primary balance ? within a dataset of 28 European countries. In the first part of this chapter I present a correlation analysis that describes the relationship between the variable austerity and each of the considered determinants, that are brought back to four main sets of variables: fiscal discipline, market discipline, fiscal consolidation, and macroeconomic stabilisation. The second part implements a panel econometric analysis based on the principal component factor analysis and on the pooled partial common correlation effect estimator. Results show that the variables and factors of the analysis are not able to fully explain austerity, though an important contribution is provided by the enforcement of the Eurozone fiscal rules (the adoption of excessive deficit procedures) and is partially counterbalanced by the cyclical position of the economy. The last chapter, Chapter 4, aims at gaining insight into the role of debt and government expectations and their impact on growth under uncertainty conditions. In fact, it is possible that the effects of austerity measures in some countries, for instance the so-called PIIGS, were amplified by uncertainty. My ambition is to relate austerity with consumers’ expectations, thus studying whether and when consumers’ beliefs about public debt and government intervention affect their consumption, savings, and tax compliance choices with a direct impact, at the aggregate level, on economic growth. Therefore, Chapter 4 implements a laboratory experiment to study how people react in a generalized framework in which public debt may be unexpectedly reduced. The debt dynamics arises endogenously: within a public good game, taxes are collected from all participants and are used to cover a given level of public expenditure, which is then equally distributed to the same participants at the beginning of each round. If the collected amount of taxes is lower than what the public expenditure would require, a deficit is generated. Moreover, reproducing a forced withdrawal, the outstanding amount of public debt can be reduced upon accessing subjects’ savings. Within this setting, expectations are directly elicited by asking subjects if they believe that public debt is going to be reduced, and if they think that the other subjects believe that public debt is sustainable. Therefore, it is possible to identify whether and how agents’ allocations and expectations are affected by the public debt path. As mentioned above, a peculiarity of my approach is the endogenous dynamics of public debt: not only it avoids introducing predetermined dynamics, but also increases the ecological validity of the experiment. Participants are indeed more psychologically involved in the debt mechanism and they might feel responsible for the raise in debt. On the other hand, an exogenous dynamics could depict public debt and tax compliance as irrelevant. Results show that this experimental framework is characterized by relatively high and often increasing aggregate savings and relatively low and decreasing aggregate consumption. Interestingly, an increase in the debt-reduction expectations and a decrease in the perceived debt sustainability are also found to explain savings and consumption behaviours, as is shown in the econometric part of Chapter 4.

Structures belonging to the same type and built in the same period may share similar geometrical and spatial characteristics. When these features also affect the seismic response of the buildings, they are referred to as typical seismic vulnerabilities. When a building presents one or more of these typical vulnerabilities, some general and qualitative considerations on its seismic behaviour can be made a priori, considering their actual influence on the seismic behaviour of other similar cases. In this work, we propose and apply a specific procedure based on a priori considerations to a specific building type: the post-World War II Italian Schools. To this purpose, we first improved our knowledge about this type of building, pointing out typical and specific seismic vulnerabilities by studying the standard architectural principles suggested by the main manuals and laws of that time. Then, in order to find how these typological features affect the global seismic behaviour of the examined structures, we analysed a real case study representative of the entire building type. Pushover and Nonlinear Dynamic analyses have been carried out, considering four different models, representing three different configurations that may result from different combinations of the most significant typical vulnerabilities.

Cultural evolution

cultural transmission
digital media
social influence
misinformation
cumulative culture
The diffusion of digital technologies triggered a radical departure from previous modalities of cultural transmission but, at the same time, general characteristics of human cultural evolution and cognition influence these developments. In this chapter, I will explore some areas where the contacts between cultural evolution research and digital media seem more promising. As cultural evolution-inspired research on internet phenomena is still limited, these areas represent suggestions and links with works in other disciplines more than reviews of past research in cultural evolution. These include topics such as how to conceptualise social influence online and how information spreads in social media; how digital media could enhance cumulative culture; and the differences between online and offline cultural transmission. I will then briefly consider possible future directions: the influence of different affordances in different media supporting cultural transmission; the role of producers of cultural traits; and, finally, the effects on cultural dynamics of algorithms selecting information.

This thesis treats mathematical models for host-parasitoid interactions. It is composed of three parts. In the first part, a class of such models is analyzed theoretically. It focuses on the phenomena of multiple coexistence equilibria of competing parasitoid species. The second part is about a model for determining how a parasitoid release should be timed to optimally control the invasive fruit fly Drosophila suzukii. The third part analyzes an experiment for releasing parasitoids in a greenhouse which is infested by D.suzukii. The models presented are used to discuss how to improve such biological control strategies.

Governments adopt strategies to follow the objective Europe 2020 and focus on the development of Renewable Energy Technologies, RET, to improve the transition of the production of energy from fossil fuels sources to renewable energy sources, RES. More than decades before, the energy transition towards renewable energies emerges as a relevant objective of the European governments. The fluctuating prices of oil and the uncertainty on the future supply of fossil fuels open new challenges for communities to actuate an energy transition towards RES. The RET can afflict deeply the landscape structure and by this point of view the energy transition is one of the most relevant drivers in the landscape change of the last three decades. In several cases energy transition may face opposition from regions and communities because of the change that RET produce in local landscapes and related economic, cultural and ecological functions. This change has been defined as a conflict between the local narrative of the right to the landscape by local communities and the global narrative that aims at a low carbon future. Exploring the relationship between Ecosystem Services (ES) and Renewable Energy (RE), the conflict among a global perspective and a local perspective has been resumed by several authors as a trade-off among provisioning and regulating ES from one side and cultural ES from the other. The overcoming of this conflict can be based on bottom-up processes that enhance the energy transition starting by local organizations of communities that want to reach a self-sufficieny in renewable energy supply. Transition management is possible if we produce innovation at local scale. An ES approach supports the transition management and the envisioning future energy landscapes by offering transparent trade-offs, exposing risks and benefits. If societies produce clean energy it may happen that RET afflict other ES. The main paradigm for the sustainability of a energy landscape is that the introduction of RET should not cause crucial trade-offs among the other ES, this is why this research wants to study this relationship, as several authors have already stressed. By the literature review it is possible to state a general gap of knowledge in integrated approaches in the evaluation of RET, considering diverse RES and ES provided by the landscape and evaluating a trade-off through a participatory process. To fulfill such gap and produce an enhancement of knowledge, this research follows the main objective of introducing a trade-off analysis into a design approach to formulate long-term visions for sustainable energy landscapes. The results we got indicate that it is possible to plan and design with the ES sustainable energy landscape.This process facilitates a sustainable energy transition of communities through a participatory landscape design that reduce the trade-off between the Renewable Energy and the ES supplies.

The study of the hydrologic cycle is physically focused on the analysis of the interactions between the soil surface (and specifically the soil water content, linked with precipitation) and the low atmosphere, which occur mainly through the mediation of the soil itself, the vegetation and the turbulent and radiative energy transfers which take place on the Earth's surface. In recent years, the hydrologic research has evolved towards a comprehensive theory describing the mass, energy and motion-quantity exchanges between surface and atmosphere at several scales. The practical aims of this efforts are: (1) to improve the mid- and long-term hydrologic forecasts; (2) to increase our capability of describing the impacts deriving from changes in the soil use and in the climate on the hydrologic cycle and on the Earth's ecosystems. The paper illustrate the implementation of GEOTOP, a distributed model of the hydrologic cycle which is meant to give a scientific contribution in this direction. GEOTOP is a terrain-based model, i.e. it is based on the employment of DEMs (digital elevation models); it is a distributed model, since all the simulated variables are returned for each pixel in the basin; it is a model of the hydrological cycle, in the sense that it simulates all the elements of the hydrological cycle, and not only the mass balance but also the energy balance: in fact the two balance equations are coupled by the evapotranspiration terms and by the soil temperature, which controls the soil hydraulic conductivity and the snow cover accumulation. As to the soil-atmosphere interaction, GEOTOP follows the treatment initially developed by Deardorf, and then implemented, with numerous changes, in land surface models either at global scale like BATS, NCAR-LSM, NOAH-LSM - or at larger scales like the VIC or at basin sclae like the DHSVM. The model adopts original solutions for the discharge calculation. In particular, it differs from the TOPMODEL, because it does not assume any stationeries conditions in the subsurface flows.

This paper presents the application of a new and promising learning algorithm based on kernel methods, i.e., support vector machines (SVMs), for the control of injection moulding processes and plasticating extrusion. In particular, the main purpose of this work is to assess the effectiveness of the method when applied to such kinds of industrial processes, characterised by a large number of variables and strictly correlated by nonlinear relationships. First, we analyse the injection process by developing a simplified model, then we identify it by using a support vector machine. The reference of the control system is tracked through the design of a control block based on the structure of the SVM.

Increased circulating sclerostin and accumulation of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) are two potential mechanisms underlying low bone turnover and increased fracture risk in type 2 diabetes (T2D). Whether the expression of the sclerostin-encoding SOST gene is altered in T2D, and whether it is associated with AGEs accumulation or regulation of other bone formation-related genes is unknown. We hypothesized that AGEs accumulate and SOST gene expression is upregulated in bones from subjects with T2D, leading to downregulation of bone forming genes (RUNX2 and osteocalcin) and impaired bone microarchitecture and strength. We obtained bone tissue from femoral heads of 19 T2D postmenopausal women (mean glycated hemoglobin [HbA1c] 6.5%) and 73 age- and BMI-comparable nondiabetic women undergoing hip replacement surgery. Despite similar bone mineral density (BMD) and biomechanical properties, we found a significantly higher SOST (p =.006) and a parallel lower RUNX2 (p =.025) expression in T2D compared with non-diabetic subjects. Osteocalcin gene expression did not differ between T2D and non-diabetic subjects, as well as circulating osteocalcin and sclerostin levels. We found a 1.5-fold increase in total bone AGEs content in T2D compared with non-diabetic women (364.8 ± 78.2 versus 209.9 ± 34.4 μg quinine/g collagen, respectively; p <.001). AGEs bone content correlated with worse bone microarchitecture, including lower volumetric BMD (r = −0.633; p =.02), BV/TV (r = −0.59; p =.033) and increased trabecular separation/spacing (r = 0.624; p =.023). In conclusion, our data show that even in patients with good glycemic control, T2D affects the expression of genes controlling bone formation (SOST and RUNX2). We also found that accumulation of AGEs is associated with impaired bone microarchitecture. We provide novel insights that may help understand the mechanisms underlying bone fragility in T2D.

Mechanics and numerical simulations of Dry Granular Flows driven by gravity

Settore ICAR/01 - Idraulica
The gravitational granular flows (e.g. debris flows or snow avalanches) are catastrophic and destructive phenomena affecting many areas in the world, and especially the mountain areas of Europe. Proper design criteria are required in order to improve protection structures and prevention strategies. Due to their complex nature, these phenomena present many aspects still unsolved in the research field. This research addresses some aspects of the mechanics of dry granular flows: a 1D depth integrated model has been developed, based on a two phase approach. The system of equations consists of three partial differential equations, derived from the mass balances for the solid and fluid phase and from the momentum balance for the solid phase, and two rheological relations determined through experimental tests and particle numerical simulations. The experimental investigation hes been conducted in a laboratory channel, by recording through high speed cameras the motion of polystyrene spherical particles. Within this research, it has been developed an ad hoc optical method to analyze and process the images recorded, with the aim of defining the main flow characteristics. From a numerical point of view, a path conservative finite volume scheme has been adopted to solve the system of equations previously described: the numerical solution is compared to the experimental results for different configurations, in order to verify the effectiveness of the mode

Service Integration through Structurepreserving Semantic Matching

Besana, Paolo

The problem of integrating services is becoming increasingly pressing. In large, open environments such as the Semantic Web, huge numbers of services are developed by vast numbers of different users. Imposing strict semantics standards in such an environment is useless; fully predicting in advance which services one will interact with is not always possible as services may be temporarily or permanently unreachable, may be updated or may be superseded by better services. In some situations, characterised by unpredictability, such as the emergency response scenario described in this case, the best solution is to enable decisions about which services to interact with to be made on-the-fly. We propose a method of doing this using matching techniques to map the anticipated call to the input that the service is actually expecting. To be practical, this must be done during run-time. In this case, we present our structurepreserving semantic matching algorithm (SPSM), which performs this matching task both for perfect and approximate matches between calls. In addition, we introduce the OpenKnowledge system for service interaction which, using the SPSM algorithm, along with many other features, facilitates on-the-fly interaction between services in an arbitrarily large network without any global agreements or pre-run-time knowledge of who to interact with or how interactions will proceed. We provide a preliminary evaluation of the SPSM algorithm within the OpenKnowledge framework.

Brane-world extra dimensions in light of GW170817

Visinelli, Luca
Bolis, Nadia
Vagnozzi, Sunny
The search for extra dimensions is a challenging endeavor to probe physics beyond the Standard Model. The joint detection of gravitational waves (GW) and electromagnetic (EM) signals from the merging of a binary system of compact objects like neutron stars can help constrain the geometry of extra dimensions beyond our 3 + 1 spacetime ones. A theoretically well-motivated possibility is that our observable Universe is a 3 + 1-dimensional hypersurface, or brane, embedded in a higher 4 + 1-dimensional antide Sitter (AdS(5)) spacetime, in which gravity is the only force which propagates through the infinite bulk space, while other forces are confined to the brane. In these types of brane-world models, GW and EM signals between two points on the brane would, in general, travel different paths. This would result in a time lag between the detection of GW and EM signals emitted simultaneously from the same source. We consider the recent near-simultaneous detection of the GW event GW170817 from the LIGO/Virgo collaboration, and its EM counterpart, the short gamma-ray burst GRB170817A detected by the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor and the International Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory Anti-Coincidence Shield spectrometer. Assuming the standard.-cold dark matter scenario and performing a likelihood analysis which takes into account astrophysical uncertainties associated to the measured time lag, we set an upper limit of l less than or similar to 0.535 Mpc at 68% confidence level on the AdS(5) radius of curvature l. Although the bound is not competitive with current Solar System constraints, it is the first time that data from a multimessenger GW-EM measurement is used to constrain extra-dimensional models. Thus, our work provides a proof of principle for the possibility of using multimessenger astronomy for probing the geometry of our space-time.

AbstractThe development of effective drugs to treat coronavirus infections remains a significant challenge for the scientific community. Recent evidence reports on the sigma-1 receptor (S1R) as a key druggable host protein in the SARS-CoV-1 and SARS-CoV-2 interactomes and shows a potent antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2 for the S1R antagonist PB28. To improve PB28 activity, we designed and tested a series of its analogues and identified a compound that is fourfold more potent against SARS-CoV-2 than PB28 itself. Interestingly, we found no direct correlation between S1R affinity and SARS-CoV-2 antiviral activity. Building on this, we employed comparative induced fit docking and molecular dynamics simulations to gain insights into the possible mechanism that occurs when specific ligand–protein interactions take place and that may be responsible for the observed antiviral activity. Our findings offer a possible explanation for the experimental observations, provide insights into the S1R conformational changes upon ligand binding and lay the foundation for the rational design of new S1R ligands with potent antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2 and likely other viruses.

This work addresses the issue of controlling a Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface (RIS) in real-time to maximize the network capacity. A RIS control strategy is proposed exploiting a Genetic Algorithm (GA) augmented with learning capabilities to achieve high computation efficiency and guarantee consistent network performance in highly-dynamic scenarios. The proposed strategy does not require knowledge of the channel between the RIS and the users, enabling the design of RIS without channel-sensing hardware. The proposed strategy is demonstrated in a small-scale numerical example.

Functional characterization of the RNA binding protein RALY
Moro, Albertomaria
Moro, Albertomaria
Macchi, Paolo
Settore BIO/11 - Biologia Molecolare
Of 25000 genes encoded from genome, more than 90% are subject to alternative splicing or other post-transcriptional modifications. All these events produce a high number of different proteins that form the basis for the high variety of cells. The RNAbinding proteins (RBPs) play crucial roles in this variability by regulating many steps of biological processes regarding RNA metabolism. The heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNPs) belong to big family of RBPs involved in many aspects of RNA metabolism including RNA stability, intracellular transport and translation. More recently, RALY, a RNA-binding protein associated with the lethal yellow mutation in mouse, has been identified as new member of the hnRNP family even if, its biological function remains still elusive.
My PhD project aimed to characterize human RALY and to assess its function in mammalian cells. Initially I dentified the expression pattern of this protein into the cell and I characterized the functional nuclear localization sequence that localizes RALY protein into the nuclear compartment. In order to better understand the role of RALY in the cells, I identified the proteins component of RALY-containing complexes using a new assay named iBioPQ (in vivo-Biotinylation-Pulldown-Quant assay). I also performed polyribosome profiling assay to check the resence of RALY in translating mRNAs. Moreover, a microarray assay was performed in order to identify potential mRNAs whose metabolism appears dependent on RALY expression. Taken together, the results that I obtained suggest that RALY is involved in mRNA metabolism. Unfortunately more studies remain to do before shedding some light on the biological
role of RALY in mammals

La danza nelle arti figurative tra Ottocento e Avanguardia = Dance in Figurative Arts between Eighteenth Century and Avant-Garde

From the illustrations of traditional classical dance to the definition of the gestural fascination that subjugated at the beginning of the twentieth century a large number of artists of the figurative avantgarde, poets, writers and sculptors, the article deals with a graphic analysis of the dance representation, its subjects and stage clothes that characterized the way of observing and perceiving the plastic dynamics of the dancers protagonists of numerous drawings,
sketches and sculptures. The graphic corpus of dances and costumes echoes the transformations of the
ballet, so in the images that portray Marie Taglioni and Fanny Elssler the sure handwriting on the sheet gives way to the elusive sign of the body that moves now unpredictable in the theatrical space, as in the set-design subversion made by Gordon Craig, whose images gave body to the essential and backstage backgrounds of the reborn Greek spirituality. In the images portrayed by Plinio Nomellini or Romano Romanelli, Isadora Duncan takes part in the dynamics of nature sculpted by time; the code of the danse d’école extends to a different materiality generated by the possible revelations of the body, going beyond the comforting habit of daily experience in favor of a new structure of dependence between dance and music. Duncan implements this transcription on several areas of reality, proposing
the two arts as sisters, abandoning the idea of the superiority of music over dance, the latter, in the early twentieth century, still conceived as mere popular entertainment. In response to the changed historical and social
conditions, the perception of physical space, like the fragmentary nature of the inner one, restores the need for a return to the model of ancient Greece for an expression of the new. The exploration of the fullbodied archive of images from the past concerns the work of the pioneers of modern dance who merged their gestural imagery with the spiritual act that the body performs in animating statuesque postures inherited from the Hellenic tradition. Thus, together with Duncan, Alexandre and Clotilde Sakharoff, Ruth St. Moritz, Saharet, to name a few, in the early
decades of the twentieth century will participate in a subversion of the dancer image no longer captured by
the precision of the body contour, but characterized by a more anxious and dramatic theatrical attitude
aimed at reaching a Dionysian elsewhere that Isadora formalizes in Der Tanz der Zukunft (the dance of the
future) in which the human being, now inseparable from his/her nature, frees himself/herself from the
corset constraint to wear the silk that allows a glimpse of the flowing forms under the fabric. The dynamic
elements that have defined the transformation of the concept of the body over time, through the figures
increasingly stylized in the sign, become the graphic expedient to observe, recognize and reconstruct the parallel mutations faced by visual language on the basis of the ancient iconographic documentation that inspired the statuesque attitude of the female figure whose free movement becomes manifest in the unstoppable resolve of social emancipation. Draftsmen, directors, set designers and artists will work in close contact with the protagonists of the
dance, who through photographs, sketches and videoframes tell the latest experiments in modern dance, evoking its lights and colors, undergoing the charm and stroke.
Dalle illustrazioni della danza classica di tradizione alla definizione del fascino gestuale che soggiogò all’inizio del XX secolo un gran numero di artisti dell’avanguardia figurativa, di poeti, di scrittori e di scultori, l’articolo affronta un’analisi grafica sulla rappresentazione della danza, dei suoi soggetti e degli abiti di scena che caratterizzarono il modo di osservare e di percepire la dinamica plastica dei danzatori protagonisti di numerosi disegni, bozzetti
e sculture. Il corpus grafico di danze e costumi riecheggia le trasformazioni del balletto, così nelle immagini che ritraggono Marie Taglioni e Fanny Elssler la grafia sicura sul foglio lascia il posto al segno elusivo del corpo che si muove ormai imprevedibile nello spazio teatrale, come nel sovvertimento scenografico operato da Gordon Craig, le cui immagini daranno corpo agli sfondi essenziali e senza quinte della rinata spiritualità greca. Nelle immagini ritratte da Plinio Nomellini o di Romano Romanelli, Isadora Duncan prende parte alla dinamica della natura scolpita dal tempo; il codice della danse d’école si estende a una materialità altra generata dalle rivelazioni possibili del corpo, ltrepassando la confortante abitudine dell’esperienza quotidiana in favore di una nuova struttura di dipendenza tra la danza e la musica. La Duncan attua questa trascrizione su più ambiti del reale, proponendo le due arti come sorelle, abbandonando l’idea della superiorità della musica rispetto alla danza, quest’ultima, ai primi del Novecento, ancora
concepita come mero intrattenimento popolare. In risposta alle mutate condizioni storiche e sociali, la percezione dello spazio fisico, come la frammentarietà di quello interiore, restituisce la necessità di un ritorno al modello della Grecia antica per un’espressione del nuovo. L’esplorazione del corposo archivio di immagini del passato riguarda il lavoro dei pionieri della danza moderna che fonderanno il proprio immaginario gestuale sull’atto spirituale che il corpo compie nell’animare posture statuarie ereditate dalla tradizione ellenica. Così, insieme alla Duncan, Alexandre e Clotilde Sakharoff, Ruth St. Denis, Saharet, per citarne alcuni, nei primi decenni del Novecento parteciperanno a un sovvertimento dell’immagine del danzatore non più catturata dalla precisione del contorno corporeo, ma caratterizzata da un atteggiamento teatrale più ansioso e drammatico teso a raggiungere un altrove dionisiaco che Isadora formalizza nel Der Tanz der Zukunft (la danza del futuro) in cui l’essere umano, ormai inseparabile dalla sua natura, si libera dalla costrizione del corsetto per indossare la seta che lascia intravedere le fluenti forme sotto il tessuto. Gli elementi dinamici che hanno definito la trasformazione del concetto di corpo nel tempo, per mezzo delle figure sempre più stilizzate nel segno, diventano l’espediente grafico per osservare, riconoscere e ricostruire le mutazioni parallelamente affrontate dal linguaggio visuale sulla base della documentazione iconografica antica che ispirò l’atteggiamento statuario della figura femminile il cui movimento libero si fa manifesto dell’inarrestabile risolutezza
di emancipazione sociale. Disegnatori, registi, scenografi e artisti lavoreranno a stretto contatto con i protagonisti della danza che attraverso fotografie, schizzi di scena e fotogrammi raccontano le ultime sperimentazioni della danza moderna, rievocandone luci e colori, subendone il fascino e il tratto.

In this paper, a microwave imaging method for reconstructing two-dimensional dielectric scatterers is presented. Starting from an integral formulation of the electromagnetic scattering phenomena, the method is aimed at determining the dielectric profile of the scatterer under test by means of an innovative particle swarm algorithm. In order to preliminary assess the effectiveness of the proposed method, some numerical experiments are carried out in noiseless as well as in noisy conditions. The obtained results confirm the capabilities of the proposed method in term of reconstruction accuracy and robustness.

L'istruzione in Africa
Cobalti, Antonio
Cobalti, Antonio
Questo lavoro si propone di far conoscere le caratteristiche dell’istruzione nell’Africa subsahariana, una parte del continente con una popolazione di oltre 700 milioni di abitanti divisi in 45 stati. Partendo dall’esame dell’influenza coloniale e delle grandi religioni (Islam e Cristianità) sulla scuola africana, vengono riportati i dati più recenti sulla situazione ai vari livelli di istruzione. Le cause dei bassi livelli di iscrizione trovati vengono discusse, prendendo in esame la crescita demografica, l’infezione HIV/AIDS, la spesa pubblica per l’istruzione, la quantità e la qualità degli insegnanti e il rendimento dell’istruzione. Nell’ultimo paragrafo sono esaminate alcune riforme attuate dai governi africani e caratteristiche generali dello stato in Africa.

apple, postharvest, superficial scald, transcriptomic, metabolomic, fruit quality
To preserve quality features and ensuring availability of fresh fruit on the market, apples need to be stored after
harvest. The low temperature applied during storage, beside avoiding important fruit loss, can also promote the
development of serious chilling injury disorders, such as superficial scald. One of the strategies largely employed
to prevent the development of this phenomenon is the control of the storage atmosphere by lowering down the
oxygen concentration. In this work, a multifaceted survey was carried out to investigate transcriptome variation
together with three categories of metabolites (phenolics, lipids and volatile organic compounds ) in fruit of
‘Granny Smith’ apple cultivar stored in both static and dynamic controlled hypoxia atmosphere for five and seven
months, respectively. The global transcriptome survey identified a core set of differentially expressed genes in
three main functional groups, revealing as the duration of storage had an important effect in the coordination of
gene expression. The effect of the length of storage was furthermore highlighted by the DEG-network analysis
that identified a distinct number and type of transcriptomic hubs. Samples characterized by the development of
superficial scald were distinguished by a higher concentration of chlorogenic acid and a higher expression of
phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) and polyphenol oxidase (PPO) in a time-dependent fashion. The prevention of
this disorder was instead related to distinctive re-programming events, involving the accumulation of specific
antioxidant types of metabolites, very long chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) and the expression of genes coordinating a
hypoxia acclimation process, such as RAP2-like and plant cysteine oxidase (PCO).

The empirical evidence of family business phenomenon in terms of employment outcomes is contradictory highlighting the micro–macro gap in the existing research. To address this contradiction, our study disentangles the role of context in family firms’ employment outcomes. To do so, we conduct a systematic literature review of 67 articles focusing on three employment-related outcomes—namely, growth, downsizing, and quality of labour—published in peer-reviewed journals from 1980 to 2020. Based on a two-by-two framework to classify this extant research, we unpack what we know about family firms and employment outcomes and where we can go from here. We highlight three main findings. First, current research is context-less since has mainly focused on the firm level in one context (i.e., region or country) and there is a lack of studies comparing family firms’ employment outcomes in different contexts and explicitly measuring the effects of contextual dimensions on family firms’ employment outcomes. This context-less approach could explain the conflicting results and lack of theoretical predictability about the family effect on employment across contexts. Second, the lack of understanding of the context in which family firms dwell highlights the need for future research to focus on context by theorizing about employment outcomes—that is, measuring context and its interactions with family- and job-related variables. Third, there is a need to further explore, analyse, and theorize on the aggregate effect of family firms on employment outcomes at different level of analysis (e.g., local, regional, and national).

Proposta e sviluppo di nuovi strumenti informali per la didattica e la comunicazione delle Scienze Fisiche

Catalysts are of great importance in many different fields, including the energy and the environmental sectors. It is important to produce them with simple preparation technique and to enhance the catalysts surface-to-volume ratio. The work undertaken in this thesis concerns the synthesis of nanostructures by Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD) and R.F. sputtering deposition and the tailoring of their structures by varying deposition parameters.
We synthesized Cobalt oxide nanoparticles (NPs) by PLD and
studied the influence of the deposition parameters (i.e. substrate temperature, target-to-substrate distance and partial pressure of Oxygen in the chamber) on the final structure and crystalline phase of the NPs. The deposited NPs can be divided in two main categories: small NPs having a diameter of about 5 nm, and big NPs of size ranging from 50 to 400 nm. Depending on the value chosen for the deposition parameters, small NPs have CoO- or Co3O4 crystalline phase, and NPs can have a core/shell structure. The phase composition of the core and of the shell also vary according to the deposition conditions.
We synthesized thin film of Co-B NPs by PLD. Depending on the energy density, the laser process is able to produce well-dispersed spherical Co NPs partially embedded within B-based film matrix in a single-step deposition. The small size, the polycrystalline nature of Co NPs, and the presence of Boron matrix is important for catalytic performance of the Co-B film. The catalytic activity of the Co-B has been tested in hydrolysis of chemical hydrides (ammonia borane and sodium borohydride). PLD deposition of C-film, to serve as support for Co-B NPs, was performed at different Ar pressures (from 10 to 50 Pa) to tailor film roughness in order to investigate the role of porous and irregular C- surface on supporting Co-B NPs acting as catalysts. The measured hydrogen generation rate attained with C-supported Co-B catalyst film is higher than both unsupported-Co-B film and conventional Co-B powder.
Multilayer ITO/Cr-doped-TiO2 thin films have been synthesized by radiofrequency magnetron sputtering in order to sensitize TiO2 in visible light and to lower the charge recombination rate in the Cr-doped-TiO2. When the multilayer films were exposed to visible light, we observed that the photocurrent increases as function of the number of bilayers by reaching the maximum with 6-bilayers of ITO/Cr-doped- TiO2. The superior photocatalytic efficiency of the 6-bilayers film implies higher hydrogen production rate through water-splitting.
Spontaneous growth of Lead nanowires (NWs) have been observed in composite Al-Pb film deposited by R.F. sputtering deposition. The parameters of deposition and the storage of the Al-Pb films after deposition has been changed in order to understand the growth process of NWs. Evolution of NWs growth was also observed inside a SEM chamber. We propose that a stress-driven mechanism and the corrosion occurring on the films surface in environment atmosphere are the cause of NWs growth.

We propose to extend results on the interpolation theory for scalar functions to the case of differential k-forms. More precisely, we consider the interpolation of fields in Pr-Λk(T), the finite element spaces of trimmed polynomial k-forms of arbitrary degree r≥ 1 , from their weights, namely their integrals on k-chains. These integrals have a clear physical interpretation, such as circulations along curves, fluxes across surfaces, densities in volumes, depending on the value of k. In this work, for k= 1 , we rely on the flexibility of the weights with respect to their geometrical support, to study different sets of 1-chains in T for a high order interpolation of differential 1-forms, constructed starting from “good” sets of nodes for a high order multi-variate polynomial representation of scalar fields, namely 0-forms. We analyse the growth of the generalized Lebesgue constant with the degree r and preliminary numerical results for edge elements support the nonuniform choice, in agreement with the well-known nodal case.

Reasoning about Risk in Agent's Deliberation Process: a Jadex Implementation

Autonomous agents and multi-agent systems have been proved to be useful in several safety-critical applications. However, in current agent architectures (particularly BDI architectures) the deliberation process does not include any form of risk analysis. In this paper, we propose guidelines to implement Tropos Goal-Risk reasoning. Our proposal aims at introducing risk reasoning in the deliberation process of a BDI agent so that the overall set of possible plans is evaluated with respect to risk. When the level of risk results too high, agents can consider and introduce additional plans, called treatments, that produce an overall reduction of the risk. Side effects of treatments are also considered as part of the model. To make the discussion more concrete, we illustrate the proposal with a case study on the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle agent.

We present the precision measurements of 11 years of daily cosmic electron fluxes in the rigidity interval from 1.00 to 41.9 GV based on 2.0×10^{8} electrons collected with the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) aboard the International Space Station. The electron fluxes exhibit variations on multiple timescales. Recurrent electron flux variations with periods of 27 days, 13.5 days, and 9 days are observed. We find that the electron fluxes show distinctly different time variations from the proton fluxes. Remarkably, a hysteresis between the electron flux and the proton flux is observed with a significance of greater than 6σ at rigidities below 8.5 GV. Furthermore, significant structures in the electron-proton hysteresis are observed corresponding to sharp structures in both fluxes. This continuous daily electron data provide unique input to the understanding of the charge sign dependence of cosmic rays over an 11-year solar cycle.

prebiotic chemistry, origins of life, aerosols, vesicles, protocells
Aerosols are abundant on the Earth and likely played a role in prebiotic chemistry. Aerosol particles coagulate, divide, and sample a wide variety of conditions conducive to synthesis. While much work has centered on the generation of aerosols and their chemistry, little effort has been expended on their fate after settling. Here, using a laboratory model, we show that aqueous aerosols transform into cell-sized protocellular structures upon entry into aqueous solution containing lipid. Such processes provide for a heretofore unexplored pathway for the assembly of the building blocks of life from disparate geochemical regions within cell-like vesicles with a lipid bilayer in a manner that does not lead to dilution. The efficiency of aerosol to vesicle transformation is high with prebiotically plausible lipids, such as decanoic acid and decanol, that were previously shown to be capable of forming growing and dividing vesicles. The high transformation efficiency with 10-carbon lipids in landing solutions is consistent with the surface properties and dynamics of short-chain lipids. Similar processes may be operative today as fatty acids are common constituents of both contemporary aerosols and the sea. Our work highlights a new pathway that may have facilitated the emergence of the Earth’s first cells.

Sensory difficulties represent a crucial issue in the life of autistic individuals. The diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders describes both hyper- and hypo-responsiveness to sensory stimulation as a criterion for the diagnosis autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Among the sensory domain affected in ASD, altered responses to tactile stimulation represent the most commonly reported sensory deficits. Although tactile abnormalities have been reported in monogenic cohorts of patients and genetic mouse models of ASD, the underlying mechanisms are still unknown. Traditionally, autism research has focused on the central nervous system as the target to infer the neurobiological bases of such tactile abnormalities. Nonetheless, the peripheral nervous system represents the initial site of processing of sensory information and a potential site of dysfunction in the sensory cascade. Here we investigated the gene expression deregulation in the trigeminal ganglion (which directly receives tactile information from whiskers) in two genetic models of syndromic autism (Shank3b and Cntnap2 mutant mice) at both adult and juvenile ages. We found several neuronal and non-neuronal markers involved in inhibitory, excitatory, neuroinflammatory and sensory neurotransmission to be differentially regulated within the trigeminal ganglia of both adult and juvenile Shank3b and Cntnap2 mutant mice. These results may help in disentangling the multifaced complexity of sensory abnormalities in autism and open avenues for the development of peripherally targeted treatments for tactile sensory deficits exhibited in ASD.

Arbitrating the S8 discrepancy with growth rate measurements from redshift-space distortions
Nunes, Rafael C
Vagnozzi, Sunny
Nunes, Rafael C
Vagnozzi, Sunny
Within the Lambda cold dark matter (ΛCDM) model, measurements from recent cosmic microwave background (CMB) and weak lensing (WL) surveys have uncovered a -3σ disagreement in the inferred value of the parameter S8 ≡ σ8√Ωm/0.3, quantifying the amplitude of late-time matter fluctuations. Before questioning whether the S8 discrepancy calls for new physics, it is important to assess the view of measurements other than CMB and WL ones on the discrepancy. Here, we examine the role of measurements of the growth rate f(z) in arbitrating the S8 discrepancy, considering measurements of fσ8(z) from redshift-space distortions (RSDs). Our baseline analysis combines RSD measurements with geometrical measurements from baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) and Type Ia Supernovae (SNeIa), given the key role of the latter in constraining Ωm. From this combination and within the ΛCDM model, we find S8 = 0.762-0.025+0030, and quantify the agreement between RSD + BAO + SNeIa and Planck to be at the 2.2σ level: the mild disagreement is therefore compatible with a statistical fluctuation. We discuss combinations of RSD measurements with other data sets, including the EG statistic. This combination increases the discrepancy with Planck, but we deem it significantly less robust. Our earlier results are stable against an extension where we allow the dark energy equation of state w to vary. We conclude that, from the point of view of combined growth rate and geometrical measurements, there are hints, but no strong evidence yet, for the Planck ΛCDM cosmology overpredicting the amplitude of matter fluctuations at redshifts z ≲ 1. From this perspective, it might therefore still be premature to claim the need for new physics from the S8 discrepancy.

Active learning (AL) is one of the popular approaches that can mitigate some of the drawbacks of supervised classification. Although sparse representation classifier (SRC) has already proven to be a robust classifier and successfully used in many applications, it is seldom used jointly with AL. In this letter, we propose a novel AL technique for SRCs. In the proposed model, the query function is designed by combining uncertainty and diversity criteria, both of which are defined by using the SRC in kernel space. The proposed technique outperforms other state-of-the-art methods in terms of classification performance.

Mode division multiplexing
The high interest for on-chip communications is driven by the possibility to exchange massive amounts of data between different resources (CPUs, GPUs, memories) directly on a system-on-chip. Optical on-chip transmission techniques promise to enhance bandwidth density and transmission reach compared to current electronic solutions.
In this context, mode division multiplexing in integrated optical waveguides has been investigated, but it still suffers from crosstalk and scalability issues. To overcome these problems, super-modes in arrays of closely-spaced waveguides can be exploited, supporting many parallel channels with low crosstalk.
In this paper we consider non-uniform arrays of closely-spaced waveguides in silicon photonics, and experimentally assess the spectral and BER performance of several array designs. Results demonstrate parallel data transmissions at 10 Gb/s over different waveguides with crosstalk <-16 dB and a power penalty <1 dB at BER =1e-9, paving the way for ultra-dense and low-crosstalk on-chip communications.

The brain is the organ most studied using Magnetic Resonance (MR). The emergence of 7T scanners has increased MR imaging resolution to a sub-millimeter level. However, there is a lack of automatic segmentation techniques for 7T MR volumes. This research aims to develop a novel deep learning-based algorithm for on-cloud brain extraction and multi-structure segmentation from unenhanced 7T MR volumes. To this aim, a double-stage 3D U-Net was implemented in a cloud service, directing its first stage to the automatic extraction of the brain and its second stage to the automatic segmentation of the grey matter, basal ganglia, white matter, ventricles, cerebellum, and brain stem. The training was performed on the 90% (the 10% of which served for validation) and the test on the 10% of the Glasgow database. A mean test Dice Similarity Coefficient (DSC) of 96.33% was achieved for the brain class. Mean test DSCs of 90.24%, 87.55%, 93.82%, 85.77%, 91.53%, and 89.95% were achieved for the brain structure classes, respectively. Therefore, the proposed double-stage 3D U-Net is effective in brain extraction and multi-structure segmentation from 7T MR volumes without any preprocessing and training data augmentation strategy while ensuring its machine-independent reproducibility.

Models of decision making focusing on two-alternative choices have classically described motor-response execution as a nondecisional stage that serially follows the termination of decision processes. Recent evidence, however, points toward a more continuous transition between decision and motor processes. We investigated this transition in two lexical decisions and one object decision task. By recording the electromyographic (EMG) signal associated with the muscle responsible for the manual responses (i.e., button press), we partitioned single-trial reaction times into premotor (the time elapsing from stimulus onset until the onset of the EMG burst) and motor times (the time elapsing from the onset of the EMG burst and the button press), with the latter measuring response execution. Responses were slower for pseudowords and pseudo-objects compared to words and real objects. Importantly, these effects were reliable even at the level of motor time measures. Differently, despite the reliable effect at the level of reaction times and premotor times, there was no difference in motor times between high- and low-frequency words. Although these results, in line with recent evidence, challenge a purely noncognitive characterization of motor-response execution, they further suggest that motor times may selectively capture specific decisional components, which we identify with late-occurring verification and/or control mechanisms.

The quantity and the quality of the training labels are central problems in high-resolution land-cover mapping
with machine-learning-based solutions. In this context, weak labels can be gathered in large quantities by
leveraging on existing low-resolution or obsolete products. In this paper, we address the problem of training
land-cover classifiers using high-resolution imagery (e.g., Sentinel-2) and weak low-resolution reference data (e.g.,
MODIS-derived land-cover maps). Inspired by recent works in Deep Multiple Instance Learning (DMIL), we
propose a method that trains pixel-level multi-class classifiers and predicts low-resolution labels (i.e., patch-level
classification), where the actual high-resolution labels are learned implicitly without direct supervision. This
is achieved with flexible pooling layers that are able to link the semantics of the pixels in the high-resolution
imagery to the low-resolution reference labels. Then, the Multiple Instance Learning (MIL) problem is re-framed
in a multi-class and in a multi-label setting. In the former, the low-resolution annotation represents the majority
of the pixels in the patch. In the latter, the annotation only provides us information on the presence of one of
the land-cover classes in the patch and thus multiple labels can be considered valid for a patch at a time, whereas
the low-resolution labels provide us only one label. Therefore, the classifier is trained with a Positive-Unlabeled
Learning (PUL) strategy. Experimental results on the 2020 IEEE GRSS Data Fusion Contest dataset show the
effectiveness of the proposed framework compared to standard training strategies.

On Neighbors, Groups and Application Invariants in Mobile Wireless Sensor Networks
Guna, Stefan-Valentin
Guna, Stefan-Valentin
Picco, Gian Pietro
Settore INF/01 - Informatica
The miniaturization and energy-efficient operation of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) provides unprecedented opportunities for monitoring mobile entities. The motivation for this thesis is drawn from real-world applications including monitoring wildlife, assisted living, and logistics. Nevertheless, mobility unveils a series of problems that do not arise in fixed scenarios. Through applications, we distill three of those, as follows. Neighbor discovery, or knowing the identity of surrounding nodes, is the precondition for any communication between nodes. As compared to other existing solutions, we provide a framework that approaches the problem from the perspectives of latency (the time required to detect an amount of contacts), lifetime (the time nodes are expected to last) and probability (the fraction of contacts guaranteed to be detected within a given latency). By formalizing neighbor discovery as an optimization problem, we obtain a significant improvement w.r.t. the state-of-art. We offer a solver providing the optimal configuration and an implementation for popular WSN devices. Group membership, or knowing the identity of the transitively connected nodes, can be either the direct answer to a requirement (e.g., caring for people that are not self-sufficient), or a building-block for higher-level abstractions. Earlier works on the same problem target either less constrained devices such as PDAs or laptops or, when targeting WSN devices, provide only post-deployment information on the group. Instead, we provide three protocols that cover the solution space. All our protocols empower each node with a run-time global view of the group composition. Finally, we focus on the behavior of the processes monitored by WSNs. We present a system that validates whether global invariants describing the safe behavior of a monitored system are satisfied. Although similar problems have been tackled before, the invariants we target are more complex and our system evaluates them in the network, at run-time. We focus on invariants that are expressed as first-order logic formulas over the state of multiple nodes. The requirement for monitoring invariants arises in both fixed and mobile environments; we design and implement an efficient solution for each. Noteworthy is that the solution targeting mobility bestows each node with an eventually consistent view on the satisfaction of the monitored invariants; in this context, the group membership algorithms play the role of global failure detectors.

Functional formalism for algebraic classical and quantum field theories
Moro, Andrea
Moro, Andrea
Brunetti, Romeo
[Mathematical Physics], [Algebraic Quantum field thoery], [Manifolds of mappings], [Wick powers], [Time ordered products]
In the first part of this thesis we study the generalization of the recent algebraic approach to classical field theory by proposing a more general setting based on the manifold of smooth sections of a non-trivial fiber bundle. Central is the notion of observables/functionals over such sections, i.e. appropriate smooth functions on them. The kinematic will be further specified by means of Peierls brackets, which in turn are defined via the causal propagators of linearized field equations. In the second part we implement deformation quantization of the algebras obtained previously in the simpler setting of scalar field theory. Wick powers and time ordered products for quantum field theories in curved spacetimes are defined by giving a set of axioms which, when implemented, defines uniquely, up to some classifiable ambiguities, the aforementioned quantities. Those ambiguities are known to be tightly restrained by locality, covariance and other regularity conditions. One of the additional constraints used was to require continuous and analytic dependence on the metric and coupling parameters. It was recently shown that this rather strong requirement could be weakened, in the case of Wick powers, to the so-called parametrized microlocal spectrum condition. We therefore show the existence of Wick powers satisfying the above condition and extend this axiom to time ordered products, while reestablishing the usual uniqueness and existence results in light of the new constraint.

Thinking Security:
A Reflectivist Approach to France's Security Policy-Making in sub-Saharan Africa
Erforth, Benedikt
Erforth, Benedikt
Della Sala, Vincenzo
Settore SPS/04 - Scienza Politica
RRecent years have witnessed increased French military activism in Africa. Despite efforts to normalise its post-colonial relationship and considerable downsizing of its permanent military presence, France remains a sought-after actor in solving African security problems. Notwithstanding French decision-makers repeated promises that the gendarme of Africa belongs to the past, French troops have participated in nine military operations since the turn of the millennium. Against all expectations, the Hollande administration has stood out for being particularly interventionist, concerting a military intervention in Mali and deploying a peacekeeping force to the Central African Republic within two years of assuming office. The ambiguity between an interventionist policy and a disengaged discourse suggests that French military interventionism in sub-Saharan Africa no longer follows the same automaticity as in the past. The two interventions in Mali and the CAR testify to the intense ideational struggles between different belief systems that had shaped French actorsâ minds and thus influenced decision-making processes and policy outcomes. Economic interests and neo-colonial continuity have been traditionally identified as the root causes of French interventionism in francophone Africa. For the past two decades the literature on French-African relations has been dominated by the so-called continuity vs. change debate, which scrutinises the presence of colonial / neo-colonial practices in the post-1990 French foreign policy. While ideational approaches to Franceâ s African policy are not rare, few studies have engaged with the decision-making processes that produce French military interventions. Most studies focus on policy outcomes, which are rooted in static conceptualisations of ideas that are aggregated at the level of the state. Starting from these observations, the present study argues that the mere analysis of policy outcomes tells us little about the actual motivations that drive French foreign and security policy in Africa. Instead of analysing French interventionism by relying on a predefined set of explanatory variables that are juxtaposed with a series of observable outcomes in order to falsify predefined hypotheses, this thesis explains French interventionism by drawing on actorsâ subjective perceptions and motivations. The study uses the actorsâ own utterances to explain why French decision-makers are ready to accept the considerable risks and costs involved in guaranteeing or re-establishing the security of African countries. Adopting an actor-centred constructivist ontology, this study not only identifies ideas as core explanatory variables but also traces their emergence and subsequent development throughout decision-making processes. This approach goes beyond the dichotomous view that reduces French motivations to material interests or post-colonial ambitions. Relying on discursive material such as official statements, verbatim reports of press conferences and parliamentary hearings, policy reports, and thirty-two high-level interviews with French decision-makers, the present study narrates military intervention in Mali and the CAR from the perspective of French foreign policy elites under the Hollande Presidency. This recent and largely unexplored empirical material provides new insights into Franceâ s foreign and defence policy. The study also demonstrates why and how the â Africa factorâ still matters in Franceâ s foreign policy considerations. The importance of Africa in Franceâ s security policy has less to do with neo-colonial ambitions per se, than with the understanding French policy-makers have of themselves and their country. More generally, the findings show how comprehensive explanations of foreign policy can be produced by considering actorsâ subjective perceptions. In so doing, the study not only explains Franceâ s current policies in sub-Saharan Africa, but also offers insights into foreign policy decision-making processes in general, and thereby provides further evidence about how ideational factors influence the making of world politics. Keywords: France, Africa, Mali, CAR, foreign policy analysis, international security, decision-making, political psychology, constructivism

Adaptive Expected Reactive algorithm for Heterogeneous Patrolling Systems based on Target Uncertainty

De Bona, Niccolò
Santoro, Luca
Brunelli, Davide
Fontanelli, Daniele
Multi-robot patrolling for dynamic coverage in flat environments is proposed, through a systematic simulative analysis between the Greedy Bayesian Strategy and the Expected Reactive algorithm based on the expected idleness. The two approaches are compared against unreliable communications, communication and sensing range, and number of conflicts. In addition, we introduce a new weighting-term for the regions close to a quantity of interest detected by robots, decreasing the passing-time for those regions. Combining the proposed control strategy and a traditional distributed and recursive Weighted Least Square estimation algorithm, the swarm is capable to compute the quantity of interest position with a desired target uncertainty. Extensive simulations and comparisons are reported.

We deal with suitable nonlinear versions of Jauregui’s isocapacitary mass in
3-manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature and compact outermost minimal boundary.
These masses, which depend on a parameter 1 < p ≤ 2, interpolate between Jauregui’s mass p = 2 and Huisken’s isoperimetric mass, as p → 1
+. We derive positive mass theorems for these masses under mild conditions at infinity, and we show that these masses do coincide
with the ADM mass when the latter is defined. We finally work out a nonlinear potential theoretic proof of the Penrose inequality in the optimal asymptotic regime.

Essays on Farm Household Decision-Making: Evidence from Vietnam
Vu, Minh Hien
Vu, Minh Hien
Settore SECS-P/06 - Economia Applicata
This thesis contains three studies which provide theoretical analysis and empirical evidence on the decision-making of farm households under shocks and imperfect markets in Vietnam. The first study attempts to investigate the effects of the 2007-08 global food crisis on the investment, saving and consumption decisions of household producers by using the panel data of the Vietnam Household Living Standard Survey (VHLSS), covering 2006 and 2008. The results show that the high food prices had a positive effect on only fixed asset investments in the period of the crisis. When the price shocks are incorporated in the financial conditions, the findings reveal that the effects of household incomes, loans obtained and land sizes matter. The second study uses the Vietnam Access to Resources Household Survey (VARHS) of 2010 to assess the determinants of chemical fertiliser adoption for rice cultivation, and effects on productivity and household welfare. The analysis implements both nonparametric (propensity score matching) and parametric (instrumental variables) approaches. The findings show determinants affecting decision of adoption differ from those affecting decision of adoption intensity. The results show unsurprisingly positive impact on outcomes, but focus on advantage of using parametric approach to estimate these impacts. The third study employs a sub-sample from the 2008 VHLSS that is restricted to rural areas and to children from 10 to 14 years old to explore the relationship between farmland and the employment of children on their family’s farm. The hypothesis is tested in three models (the Tobit, Heckit and double-hurdle models), in which the dependent variables are examined for two stages of decision-making, including the probability of participation and the extent of participation. Empirical evidence supports the hypothesis that child labour increases in land-rich households and decreases in land-poor households.

ITALIAN ACADEMICS’ PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT: AN OPPORTUNITY TO STRENGTHEN THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN UNIVERSITIES AND THEIR TERRITORIES. The term Public Engagement refers to a variety of activities aimed at engaging universities within the public sphere and, correspondingly, at involving the public in the teaching, research and service activities of universities. These activities - which are largely carried out by faculty either on a mere individual basis or as an institutional duty - provide an opportunity to strengthen the relationships between universities and their territories. Relying on the results of a survey on more than 5,000 academics working at Italian public universities, the article aims at showing how frequent academics' Public engagement is, who are the academics mostly engaged in these activities, and whether there are territorial differences in this kind of engagement. The article also provides an assessment of the social and economic impact of Public engagement activities, especially at the local and regional levels. Distinguishing between two dimensions of academics' Public engagement, namely .Local Community Engagement. and .General Political Engagement., the article shows that Italian academics' participation in the former is considerable while their participation in the latter is limited. These findings suggest that academics' Public engagement indeed provides an opportunity to link universities to their territories. Local community engagement varies according to some individual characteristics such as academics' discipline and their involvement on other .Third mission. activities, but not to others. In particular, faculty working in Southern Italy and the Islands, the less developed regions of the country, and those working in North-West Italy, the most developed part of the country, are equally involved in Local community engagement. Finally, according to academics' perceptions their Local community engagement has a more social than economic impact.

Characterization of Small Molecules Inhibiting the RNA Binding Protein HuR
Lal, Preet
Lal, Preet
Provenzani, Alessandro
Settore BIO/11 - Biologia Molecolare
HuR, the ubiquitously expressed member of the ELAV (embryonic lethal abnormal vision) family of RNA binding proteins, selectively binds to AREs (AU-rich elements) and mainly stabilizes ARE-containing mRNAs, e.g. TNFα, VEGF, c-FOS, favoring specific protein translation. TNFα mRNA is one of the most important target mRNA of HuR since the protein encoded by this gene mediates the inflammatory response and its overexpression is correlated with autoimmune diseases and cancer-related inflammation. Specific drugs are already available that can inhibit TNFα protein but cause important side-effects, as insurgence of tumoral pathologies, due to high immunodepression. Therefore, inhibition of TNFα mRNA translation by specific inhibitors targeting HuR, only in those cells undergoing pathological anomalies, is an alternative, intriguing novel therapeutic approach that deserves investigation. By REMSA and AlphaScreen assays we identified a family of low molecular weight inhibitors, called Tanshinones, among which DHTS-I (Dihydrotanshinone – I) was the most potent. Tanshinones are well known in the traditional Chinese Medicine Practice, and these anti-inflammatory agents possess the ability to prevent HuR-RNA complex formation in vitro. We further identified structural determinants of HuR and DHTS interaction using RRM1&RRM2 tandem domains. EMSA and AlphaScreen experiments, with truncated ΔRRM1 and mutants revealed that DHTS is a competitive binder of HuR with respect of target RNA. To ameliorate the solubility of DHTS, we synthesized a number of DHTS analogs, of which the most potent and soluble compound was named MFM49. We evaluated the anti-inflammatory potential of DHTS and DHTS analogs and the HuR-dependent mechanism of action, revealing that, at least in part, DHTS and DHTS analogs rely on HuR to exert their mechanism of action. Influence on NF-kB activation by DHTS and MFM49 upon LPS co-stimulation was not seen in immunofluorescence studies. So here, we disclose a previously unrecognized molecular mechanism of action exerted by DHTS, and anti-inflammatory potential of DHTS analogs opening new perspectives to therapeutically target the HuR mediated, post-transcriptional control in inflammation and cancer like anomalies.

Describing Human Behaviour Through Computational Social Science

Veltri, Giuseppe A.
The possibilities offered by digital and Computational Social Science can improve our understanding of human behaviour as never before. The availability of behavioural data in a society where the digital has been widely adopted is because of two reasons: first, the vast amount of digital traces produced by people in their daily lives and related behaviours and, second, the possibility of running online experiments that can cover a large segment of a target population (we have seen online experiments with hundreds of thousands of participants). This chapter will discuss the opportunity offered by online large behavioural experiments. The implications for policymakers of this shift are the possibility of having behavioural insights both across different societies and better understanding and capturing within a country heterogeneity. In other words, large-scale online experiments combined with computational methods allow for unprecedented cognitive and behavioural based segmentation.

A Sound Up-to- n, δ Bisimilarity for PCTL

Murgia, M.
Zunino, R.
We tackle the problem of establishing the soundness of approximate
bisimilarity with respect to PCTL and its relaxed semantics.
To this purpose, we consider a notion of bisimilarity similar to the one
introduced by Desharnais, Laviolette, and Tracol, which is parametric
with respect to an approximation error δ, and to the depth n of the
observation along traces. Essentially, our soundness theorem establishes
that, when a state q satisfies a given formula up-to error δ and steps n,
and q is bisimilar to q' up-to error δ' and enough steps, we prove that
q' also satisfies the formula up-to a suitable error δ'' and steps n. The
new error δ'' is computed from δ, δ' and the formula, and only depends
linearly on n. We provide a detailed overview of our soundness proof.

This study assesses the accuracy and technical predictability of a computer-guided procedure for harvesting bone from the external oblique ridge using a patient-specific cutting guide. Twenty-two patients needing bone augmentation for implant placement were subjected to mandibular osteotomy employing a case-specific stereolithographic surgical guide generated through computer aided design. Differences between planned and real cut planes were measured comparing pre- and post-operative Cone Beam Computed Tomography images of the donor site according to six validated angular and displacement indexes. Accuracy and technical predictability were assessed for 119 osteotomy planes over the study population. Three different guide fitting approaches were compared. An average root-mean-square discrepancy of 0.52 (0.30–0.97) mm was detected. The accuracy of apical and medial planes was higher than the mesial and distal planes due to occasional antero-posterior guide shift. Fitting the guide with an extra reference point on the closest tooth performed better than using only the bone surface, with two indexes significantly lower and less disperse. The study showed that the surgical plan was actualized with a 1 mm safety margin, allowing effective nerve preservation and reducing technical variability. When possible, surgical guide design should allow fitting on the closest tooth based on both radiological and/or intra-oral scan data.

Data driven modeling
scientific interpretation
spider silk
protein to macroscopic behavior
In multiscale phenomena, complex structure-function relationships emerge across different scales, making predictive modeling challenging. The recent scientific literature is exploring the possibility of leveraging machine learning, with a predominant focus on neural networks, excelling in data fitting, but often lacking insight into essential physical information. We propose the adoption of a symbolic data modeling technique, the ‘‘Evolutionary Polynomial
Regression,’’ which integrates regression capabilities with the genetic programming paradigm, enabling the derivation of explicit analytical formulas, finally delivering a deeper comprehension of the analyzed physical phenomenon. To demonstrate the key advantages of our multiscale numerical approach, we consider the spider silk case. Based on a recent multiscale experimental dataset, we deduce the dependence of the macroscopic behavior from lowerscale arameters, also offering insights for improving a recent theoretical model by some of the authors. Our approach may represent a proof of concept for modeling in fields governed by multiscale, hierarchical differential equations.

The Dependency Research Programme: Its Latin American Origins and Global Contemporary Applications

The dependency research program (DRP) provides an understanding of global capitalism from the perspective of postcolonial societies. Central concepts in international studies, such as the core/periphery, unequal exchange, and dependent development, were developed by scholars working from the DRP perspective. Its core assumptions were shaped by the intellectual and political debates among critical Latin American scholars working in the 1960s and 1970s—a period marked by deep processes of sociopolitical change. Although the origins of the DRP are rooted in Latin America, its development and influence is global in scope. Its ideas and concepts inspired other approaches and fields of research such as the World System Theory and the studies on the developmental state, and its core assumptions informed the works of researchers in Africa, Asia, and Europe. Since the early 2000s and especially after the global financial crisis of 2008, new works have been published drawing on the insights of the DRP. Most of this scholarship has focused on topics such as dependency and global production networks, dependent financialization, dependency and European integration, and the new situations of dependency brought about by the rise of China. Although the DRP has been criticized for lacking clear microfoundations, this article makes the case that by bringing sociopolitical coalitions to the fore and by identifying specific mechanisms of dependency, the DRP will continue being a viable and vibrant approach to explain global inequalities in the contemporary global political economy.

Refugees and Centralized State-building in Uganda
de Simone, Sara
de Simone, Sara
refugees, state-building, extraversion, international aid, uganda
Uganda is the third country in the world for absolute numbers of refugees hosted. Why is this the case? Is it just a geographical accident, or does it gain benefits from its open policy? This article contributes to the literature addressing these questions by shedding light on how a refugee emergency can be used for state-building purposes. Thanks to its history as a donor darling, Uganda was able to position itself as a model for refugee-hosting, receiving significant amounts of international aid to sustain the country’s extraversion strategies. Even though the state-building project nurtured by these resources is not a liberal one, being marred by corruption and scandal, it cannot be dismissed as individual rent-seeking. The paper shows that this project aims to recentralization and the strengthening of the incumbent regime through the strengthening of the central state structure in the refugee-hosting peripheries to the detriment of local governments.

Mortality estimate
Physiologically-based demographic model
Population abundance time-serie
Stage-structured population
Simulating the population dynamics of a stage-structured population requires the knowledge of development, mortality and fecundity rate functions characterizing the species. In general, development and fecundity can satisfactorily be estimated starting from literature data. Unfortunately, this is often not the case for the mortality function due to the lack of experimental data. To overcome this problem, we estimate the mortality rate function from field data on the abundance of the species. The mortality is expressed as a linear combination of cubic splines and the estimation method allows to determine its coefficients taking into account the observations measurement error. Moreover, the variability in the estimate is quantified using the confidence bands for both mortality and dynamics. The presented method allows obtaining a more flexible shape for the mortality rate functions compared with previous methods applied to the same pest. The method has been applied to the case of Lobesia botrana, the main pest in the European vineyards, with abundance data collected for five consecutive years in an experimental field in the North of Italy. Data collected over three years are used to estimate the mortality and to analyse the variability in the estimate and its effects on the population dynamics, while the other two datasets are used to validate the model simulating the dynamics using the estimated mortality.

Cryomilling and Spark Plasma Sintering of 2024 Aluminium Alloy
Bendo Demetrio, Ketner
Bendo Demetrio, Ketner
Molinari, Alberto
Settore ING-IND/22 - Scienza e Tecnologia dei Materiali
Aluminium alloys are characterized by a low specific weight, which make them highly interesting for structural applications. Mechanical properties are lower than those of steels, so the possibility to obtain an increase by means of the structural refining (either nano- or ultra-fine grained structure) would extend their applications in several fields.
Bulk nanocrystalline metals and alloys can be produced by high energy milling of powders and their consolidation by sintering techniques characterized by a low thermal load in order to minimize grain growth. This is an alternative approach to other methods based on severe plastic deformation, with the advantage of obtaining near-net shape parts, within the limits of the Powder Metallurgy (PM) route. Even in the case of the part cannot be obtained directly a preform can be produced by Powder Metallurgy and finished by hot working. In this case, Powder Metallurgy is used to produce preforms with geometry closer to the final one than that attainable by other technologies, reducing production costs and raw material consumption.
It is well known that nanostructure (D < 100 nm) of Al alloys can be obtained by high energy milling technique. During milling, the grain size is determined by equilibrium between recovery and formation of defects due to heavy plastic deformation. Face centered cubic (FCC) materials, as Al and alloys, are difficult to reduce by mechanical milling. The opposite occurs with body centred cubic (BCC) and hexagonal close packet (HCP) metals due to relatively defects accumulation and difficult of fast recovery kinetics.
A valid alternative is the cryogenic milling, where the powders are milled in slurry formed with liquid nitrogen. Cryomilling takes advantage due to low temperature of the liquid nitrogen that either suppresses or limits recovery and recrystallization and leads to finer grain structure faster. In addition cryogenic milling does not require use of process control agent (PCA) that can contaminate the powder with carbon and oxygen.
A very important factor to preserve the nanostructure of a material is its thermal stability that depends on the balance between driving and resisting forces. It is well known that the smaller the grain size, the bigger the tendency to grain growth. In most cases, the thermal stability of a nanostructure depends on the lattice defects stored between and within grains, and on the particles such as nitrides and oxides precipitated at the grain boundaries. It is really important achieve an equilibrium between grain size and thermal stability of the material to avoid grain growth on sintering. Moreover, if the powder particles are very fine, sintering becomes hard because of the oxide layer that surrounds the particles.
Bulk nanomaterials can be produced through several PM techniques. Hot isostatic press (HIP), dynamic consolidation, hot extrusion and spark plasma sintering (SPS) are effective to achieve a full dense material. In the frame of the near-net shape technologies, SPS is a novel technology that has large potentiality, because of the lower temperature and shorter time required. In this process a pulse electric current flows directly on the powders and a high heating efficiency is offered.
It is known that Al powders are hardly sinterable due to oxide layer on their surface. This layer has to be broken in order to form a solid neck between the particles. SPS has been used to produce nanostructured Al and iron alloys starting from nanostructured powders.
A bimodal microstructure can be formed during SPS sintering due to the localized overheating generated by the sparks and low thermal stability of the material. It is well known that a bimodal microstructure reveals an improvement of ductility which is the most critical characteristics of nanostructured metals. In a simplistic view, ultra-fine/nano crystallites are responsible for high strength and micrometric grains provide increased ductility. Additional strategies of ductility improvement provides deformation at low temperatures/high strain rates, which furnishes accumulation of dislocations within nanocrystalline/UFG, resulting in increased strain hardening and enhancement of strain rate sensitivity of the flow stress.
Hot workability of metals depends on several parameters. Temperature and strain rate affect the flow stress and the strain rate sensitivity. The former increases on decreasing grain size, until the deformation process is determined by dislocation motion. In FCC materials, particularly in Al and its alloys, refining grains to UFG level promotes an increase in strain rate sensitivity. The hot workability is usually defined as the quantity of deformation that a material can undergo without cracking and reaching desirable deformed microstructures at a given temperature and strain rate. Improving workability means increasing the processing ability and the properties of the materials. Hot workability can be studied by the approach of the power dissipation maps.
In this PhD work, the production of nanometric Al 2024 alloy powder by cryomilling, ultra-fine grained/micrometric material consolidated by SPS, and its further deformability at high temperature was studied. The results are presented in three chapters.
Chapter 1 reports the methodology to obtain the nanostructured 2024 alloy powder. Many aspects such as the evolution of the microstructure, the role of liquid nitrogen during milling and the thermal stability are studied in order to have an insight on the kinetics (1). The study of the thermal stability of the nanostructured powder is presented, as well.
Chapter 2 describes the SPS experiments of the as-atomized and as-milled powders and the characterization of the consolidated material.
Chapter 3 reports the hot compression experiments on the atomized and milled samples, and discusses the differences in the deformation behaviour on the basis of the starting microstructure and of its evolution during deformation.

Il GEIE “italiano” tra impresa e società
Bartolacelli, Alessio
Bartolacelli, Alessio
A quasi trent’anni dall’emanazione del Regolamento comunitario 2137/1985 che ne segna la data di nascita, e a venticinque dalla effettiva possibilità di costituzione, il gruppo europeo di interesse economico (GEIE) è ancora percepito, nella migliore delle ipotesi, come una specie di “oggetto misterioso” nel panorama giuridico italiano ed europeo. Lo scopo di questo studio, che ha beneficiato del sostegno economico della Commissione Europea e della Provincia autonoma di Trento nell’ambito del Settimo Programma Quadro, Azione Marie Curie COFUND, progetto “TRENTINO”, è di tentare una riconduzione ragionata del GEIE a categorie che siano di maggiore familiarità per il giurista italiano, indagandone le problematiche principali (su tutte l’assenza del beneficio della responsabilità limitata dei membri per le obbligazioni assunte dal gruppo) ed offrendo ipotesi di soluzione.

Novel constraints on fifth forces and ultralight dark sector with asteroidal data

We study for the first time the possibility of probing long-range fifth forces utilizing asteroid astrometric data, via the fifth force-induced orbital precession. We examine nine Near-Earth Object (NEO) asteroids whose orbital trajectories are accurately determined via optical and radar astrometry. Focusing on a Yukawa-type potential mediated by a new gauge field (dark photon) or a baryon-coupled scalar, we estimate the sensitivity reach for the fifth force coupling strength and mediator mass in the mass range m ≃ (10-21-10-15) eV, near the "fuzzy" dark matter region. Our estimated sensitivity is comparable to leading limits from equivalence principle tests, potentially exceeding these in a specific mass range. The fifth force-induced precession increases with the orbital semi-major axis in the small m limit, motivating the study of objects further away from the Sun. We also demonstrate that precession tests are particularly strong in probing long-range forces which approximately conserve the equivalence principle. We discuss future prospects for extending our study to more than a million asteroids, including NEOs, main-belt asteroids, Hildas, and Jupiter Trojans, as well as trans-Neptunian objects and exoplanets.

Il ruolo della deontologia medica nel sistema delle fonti del diritto: un'analisi comparata. Le rôle de la déontologie médicale dans les sources du droit :analyse comparée.
Pulice, Elisabetta
Pulice, Elisabetta
Casonato, Carlo
Settore IUS/21 - Diritto Pubblico Comparato
L’obiettivo della presente tesi è un’analisi comparata del ruolo della deontologia medica nel sistema delle fonti del diritto in Italia, Francia e Germania. Nella prima Parte alcune considerazioni preliminari e l’analisi linguistica hanno permesso di definire l’ambito di indagine e i profili di maggiore complessità del rapporto tra dimensione deontologica e dimensione giuridica sui quali nelle Parti successive si è concentrata l’indagine. La seconda Parte, dedicata alla codificazione dell’etica medica, ha messo in luce la varietà di soluzioni e di modalità di ingresso della norma deontologica nell’ordinamento giuridico. Dal punto di vista comparato, possono distinguersi almeno due modelli principali. In alcuni ordinamenti, infatti, il codice deontologico assume la forma di una fonte del diritto e viene collocato così in maniera “non mediata” nel sistema delle fonti dell’ordinamento statale. Nel modello di ingresso “mediato”, invece, la norma deontologica acquisisce rilevanza sul piano giuridico attraverso il rinvio che ad essa fanno altri principi, norme e clausole generali dell’ordinamento. Il codice di deontologia medica italiano rientra in questo secondo modello, poiché, nonostante assuma significativa rilevanza sul piano giuridico, dal punto di vista strettamente formale rimane ancora un regolamento interno alla categoria professionale. Del modello “non mediato” fanno invece parte il codice deontologico francese (e, più in generale, la categoria di déontologies étatiques, a cui esso appartiene) e le Berufsordnungen del Länder tedeschi. Ciò nonostante, le due esperienze presentano diversità sostanziali nella struttura dei rapporti tra diritto e deontologia. Nell’ordinamento francese il codice di deontologia medica diventa infatti una fonte dello Stato poiché viene pubblicato sul Journal Officiel come decreto del Primo Ministro, nello specifico come décret en Conseil d’Etat, ossia un decreto per il quale è obbligatorio il parere del Consiglio di Stato francese ed è stato infine integrato in un codice statale, il Code de la santé publique. In Germania, invece, i codici deontologici vengono emanati dagli ordini professionali con la forma di Satzungen, fonti sublegislative (untergesetzlich) che rimangono però espressione dell’autonomia amministrativa riconosciuta agli ordini professionali in qualità di Körperschaft des öffentlichen Rechts. Rispetto a questi due modelli, in Italia la collocazione del codice deontologico tra le fonti del diritto risulta quindi più complesso e la definizione della sua natura giuridica rimane ancora controversa. Nella terza Parte è stato analizzato il ruolo della deontologia medica nell’ambito del biodiritto, sottolineando innanzitutto l’esistenza di un nucleo di principi comuni ai codici deontologici, i quali si sono progressivamente aperti ad una sostanziale tutela dei diritti fondamentali della persona assistita, in sintonia con i principi elaborati a livello costituzionale, nazionale e internazionale. L’analisi comparata dei rapporti tra deontologia e diritto in alcuni ambiti specifici ha però evidenziato come, al di là di tale nucleo comune, l’evoluzione di contenuti concreti dei codici e l’ampiezza di determinate discipline dipenda da quattro fattori principali: le caratteristiche dell’oggetto da disciplinare; le scelte di intervento dell’ordinamento giuridico nell’ambito del biodiritto; il modello dei rapporti tra diritto e deontologia medica e la capacità della categoria professionale di farsi carico delle nuove esigenze di tutela dei diritti fondamentali. La combinazione tra questi fattori può variare in maniera significativa nei singoli ordinamenti, dando vita ad esiti anche molto diversi sul piano normativo. Lo studio di alcuni specifici ambiti del biodiritto ha messo inoltre in luce le peculiarità del ruolo della deontologia medica, la quale svolge una funzione essenziale nella definizione del caso concreto, ma può anche costituire fonte di disciplina specifica del biodiritto, in ragione di un’inerzia o di una specifica delega del legislatore. La quarta Parte è dedicata alla violazione della deontologia e ai procedimenti disciplinari, che sono stati valutati in relazione alla loro idoneità ad emancipare l’accertamento della responsabilità deontologica dalla dimensione meramente corporativistica. Infine nella Parte conclusiva sono stati analizzati alcuni profili legati alla dimensione europea della deontologia e, alla luce di quanto emerso dall’analisi comparata, sono state proposte alcune ipotesi di riforma per un modello italiano più coerente, flessibile ed efficace dei rapporti tra diritto e deontologia.

Recovering a MOND-like acceleration law in mimetic gravity
Sunny Vagnozzi
Vagnozzi, Sunny
We reconsider the recently proposed mimetic gravity, focusing in particular on whether the theory is able to reproduce the inferred flat rotation curves of galaxies. We extend the theory by adding a non-minimal coupling between matter and mimetic field. Such coupling leads to the appearance of an extra force which renders the motion of test particles non-geodesic. By studying the weak field limit of the resulting equations of motion, we demonstrate that in the Newtonian limit the acceleration law induced by the non-minimal coupling reduces to a modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND)-like one. In this way, it is possible to reproduce the successes of MOND, namely the explanation for the flat galactic rotation curves and the Tully–Fisher relation, within the framework of mimetic gravity, without the need for particle dark matter. The scale-dependence of the recovered acceleration scale opens up the possibility of addressing the missing mass problem not only on galactic but also on cluster scales: we defer a full study of this issue, together with a complete analysis of fits to spiral galaxy rotation curves, to an upcoming companion paper.

Production of steel matrix composites by mechanical milling and spark plasma sintering
Fedrizzi, Anna
Fedrizzi, Anna

Settore ING-IND/21 - Metallurgia
Hot work tool steels (HWTSs) are ferrous alloys for tooling application, particularly developed to meet high toughness and good hot hardness. Increasing hardness generally leads to a decrease in toughness, therefore metal matrix composite (MMC) coatings and functionally graded materials have been proposed as a good solution for improving wear resistance.
In this PhD thesis powder metallurgy has been applied for the production of particle reinforced HWTSs. Mechanical milling (MM) and mechanical alloying (MA) have been considered as suited techniques for the production of powders showing higher sinterability and finer microstructure. Spark plasma sintering (SPS) has been used for the consolidation. As reinforcement a harder high speed steel (HSS) and different ceramic powders (TiB2, TiC and TiN) have been selected.
The production of HWTS/HSS blends has highlighted the negative interaction on densification of the two components due to their different sintering kinetics. This interference can be minimised by selecting powders with smaller particles size. With this respect MM was proved to be a very useful method, which enhances sintering. Fully dense blends with good dispersion of the reinforcing particles can be sintered using small sized powders and setting the particle size ratio (PSR) smaller than 1.
For the production of MMCs the formation of aggregates has been overcome by MA which promotes a uniform dispersion of hard particles into the parent steel. Among the reinforcement considered in this work, TiB2 is not suitable because it reacts with steel depleting carbon and producing TiC and brittle Fe2B. HWTS composites with 20%vol of TiC can be fully densified by SPS at 1100 °C for 30 minutes and 60 MPa uniaxial pressure. On the other hand TiN-reinforced MMC shows high resistance to densification and fully dense materials could not be produced.

Social media.
Volunteers represent a valuable asset during emergencies caused by natural phenomena. A
recent flurry of contributions has underscored the capabilities of so-called digital volunteers to
provide effective contributions by providing useful information, helping mitigate the damage
and supporting the recovery in the aftermath of disasters. Social media have been identified as
specific enablers of volunteer work, as they provide a bottom-up coordination tool. We contend
that albeit useful for broadcasting information and corroborating other sources of information,
the use of social media by a vast network of volunteers cannot substitute for the highly
contextual knowledge developed locally on the scene. We explore the issue by analyzing
volunteer work – both digital and physical – occurring during the Genoa flood of 2014.

Movements by Drawing: Avant-Garde Set-Design and Sound Landscapes

Vattano, Starlight
Drawing, dance, perception, set-design, Avant-garde theatre, futurist dance
The article deals with the study of visual images produced by the movement through the drawing’s set-design realized between 1920 and 1930, moment of theatre revolution, which saw the cooperation of different sectors of art, including photography, painting, architecture, cinema, dance, sculpture, and music. The visual values that triggered the theorization of the artistic avant-garde and, subsequently, the production of the scenographic drawing, in form and space, constitute a corollary of dynamic systems, a metaphor of the deconstructed movement through the figuration of the idea and at the same time signification of the interpretative distortion. The aim is to deepen the issue of movement expressed through the possible variations of the drawing. The study of the avant-garde set-designs that formed part of the structure characterizing the mobile theaters, allows to shed light on the role the graphic expression played in functional, compositional and aesthetic terms by self-propelled components, machines and images within the formalization process of the new theater. These elements constituted a new visual grammar no longer directed to the search for representative or symbolic values, but to the pure signification of itself, latent of a conceptualization process that traced a sign correspondence between object and subject in the drawing.

Activity Routine
Non-Negative Matrix Factorization
COVID-19
One population group that had to significantly adapt and change their
behaviour during the COVID-19 pandemic is students. While previous studies have
extensively investigated the impact of the pandemic on their psychological
well-being and academic performance, limited attention has been given to their
activity routines. In this work, we analyze students' behavioural changes by
examining qualitative and quantitative differences in their daily routines
between two distinct periods (2018 and 2020). Using an Experience Sampling
Method (ESM) that captures multimodal self-reported data on students' activity,
locations and sociality, we apply Non-Negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) to
extract meaningful behavioural components, and quantified the variations in
behaviour between students in 2018 and 2020. Surprisingly, despite the presence
of COVID-19 restrictions, we find minimal changes in the activities performed
by students, and the diversity of activities also remains largely unaffected.
Leveraging the richness of the data at our disposal, we discovered that
activities adaptation to the pandemic primarily occurred in the location and
sociality dimensions.

La città di carta: stampa effimera e cultura urbana nella Venezia del Rinascimento
Salzberg, Rosa
Salzberg, Rosa
La città di carta esplora la rapida ascesa della stampa economica e il modo in cui essa ha permeato la cultura urbana veneziana nel Rinascimento. In contrasto con l’immagine familiare di Venezia come “la Serenissima”, tranquilla e ordinata, evoca la vita rumorosa, mutevole e transitoria della città a livello della strada e offre la prima visione dal basso di una delle sue industrie più produttive e creative. L’esito è una prospettiva nuova e inaspettata sulla cultura rinascimentale, caratterizzata da una mobilità fluida e da un intreccio dinamico di testi, idee, merci e persone. Il libro segue il flusso di stampe effimere (opuscoli, operette e fogli volanti) che si riversò dai torchi veneziani a partire dalla fine del XV secolo – i prodotti più visibili e accessibili della tipografia, spesso venduti per le strade e declamati da intrattenitori di piazza. Strettamente intrecciati con la cultura orale, questi testi contribuirono alla creazione di pubblici nuovi, fornendo informazioni e svago a un pubblico eterogeneo e trasformando la città in un epicentro della letteratura e della performance vernacolare. Esaminando i modi in cui la produzione e la diffusione della stampa a basso costo si infiltrarono nel tessuto urbano veneziano e cambiarono il corso della vita culturale della città, il libro analizza anche il modo in cui le autorità locali cercarono di disciplinare questi flussi intensificando la censura e il controllo nel corso del XVI secolo.

The development of efficient automotive accident management systems requires the design of complex multifunction antennas enabling different wireless services (e.g., localization, voice and data communications, emergency calls, etc.). Starting from different specifications (electrical, mechanical, and aerodynamic), the design of a multifunction antenna must consider, in addition to the usual antenna design requirements, also interference phenomena arising from the integration of different classes of antennas in a compact device. In this framework, the paper describes a methodology based on a stochastic multiphases optimization approach for the design of an integrated multifunction/multiband antenna system. Moreover, for an exhaustive assessment, the results of an experimental validation performed on a prototype of the multifunction antenna system are shown and discussed. (c) 2006 IEEE.

Cybersecurity
Professional skills
Assessment framework
Education
To address the issue of educating and training new experts in cybersecurity, it is crucial to identify the specific educational needs of the various professions that exist in the field. We measure these needs by analysing six cybersecurity-related job profiles—each with its own specific skill requirements—that have been assessed by academic and industrial organisations from the cybersecurity community in 14 European countries. We find that it is possible to identify a series of “transversal” skills relevant to all job profiles, and thus of utmost importance in the cybersecurity curricula. However, we also observe that academic and industrial priorities differ substantially, and that skills related to the area of Human security do not rank particularly high, possibly exposing the difficulty of integrating such concepts in traditional education.

This doctorate thesis focuses on the analysis, design and characterization of Radio-Frequency (RF) Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) switches for space applications. The work was inspired and supported by the European Space Agency (ESA) Contract No. ITT AO/1-5288/06/NL/GLC ?High Reliability Redundancy Switch?. The main purpose of the project is the design and realization of high-reliability RF MEMS switches for satellite payload redundancy networks. Up to now, the common satellite architecture implements redundancy networks by means of bulky devices. RF MEMS switches allow for extremely miniaturized networks along with outstanding performances in terms of losses, power consumption and linearity, not really achievable with solid state devices. As requirements for such an application, RF MEMS switches have to survive under extremely harsh environmental and operating conditions. In particular the device should handle continuous bias voltage (at least for 10 years), 5 W of RF input power and around 1000 actuation cycles without meaningful electrical and mechanical failure. The thesis proposes novel mechanical solutions to accomplish this task, exploiting active restoring mechanisms able to restore the previous status of switch in case of reversible failure. This work also provides a deep insight on the main reliability aspects of a RF MEMS device such as dielectric charging, contact degradation and power handling.

Analisi Fabbisogni Formativi
Teaching and Learning Center
intervista
Delegati alla didattica.
Il contributo presenta una ricerca attuata dal Teaching and Learning Center dell’Ateneo trentino, FormID,
volta ad individuare i fabbisogni formativi dei docenti. L’azione che si descrive fa parte di un intervento più
ampio che, connettendo un approccio top down e bottom up, intende raccogliere dati di contesto per
orientare un’offerta formativa situata e rispondente alle esigenze reali del contesto. La ricerca si compone
di varie azioni: interviste ai componenti del Comitato Scientifico del FormID (Serbati et al., 2023a; Serbati et
al., 2023b), interviste ai Delegati alla didattica dei Dipartimenti e somministrazione di questionari ai docenti,
al fine di raccogliere la percezione non solo dei singoli docenti, ma anche di chi, per il ruolo ricoperto, può
avere una visione complessiva della didattica e delle esigenze del proprio centro. Oggetto di questo contributo sarà la descrizione dei risultati delle interviste semi-strutturate realizzate con i 15 Delegati. L’obiettivo
è indagare i seguenti temi: idea di ‘qualità della didattica’, strategie didattiche più utilizzate, uso delle ICT,
criticità riscontrate nella didattica e fabbisogni formativi dei docenti.
Ne risulta una idea di qualità della didattica eterogenea, che tocca varie dimensioni; le scelta di strategie didattiche attive vede una forte differenziazione tra CdL triennali e magistrali, a favore di questi ultimi; vi è un
uso quasi assente della valutazione formativa, mentre si è diffuso l’uso delle videolezioni. I principali fabbisogni formativi dei docenti riguardano la formazione sulle strategie didattiche e sulla valutazione. La criticità più sentita è il fatto che l’impegno dei docenti nella didattica non venga valutato per la progressione
di carriera.

Subdomain enumeration is a fundamental step of many security processes (i.e., vulnerability discovery, OSINT, host enumeration, etc.).
Up to now, this has been achieved with deterministic procedures that have shown some limitations. For instance, the process typically requires the generation of a candidate, which is subsequently
checked for validity. While the validation is a straightforward procedure, the definition of an optimal candidate generation strategy is still an open problem. This paper presents a novel subdomain
enumeration tool that allows the generation of high-quality subdomain candidates. We employ a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) to sample unseen candidates from the distribution of valid
subdomain names. The model learns this distribution from publicly available datasets. Moreover, by sampling from the trained model, we address the limitations of traditional algorithms. Our
experiments were carried out against 15 domains and a ground truth of 1164 other targets. The 15 domains were carefully selected from bug bounty platforms to avoid terms of use violations. Several factors influenced the choices, including the popularity, the expected number of subdomains, and the available services. Our experiments aim to validate our approach by testing the performance increase in subdomain enumeration processes against the state-of-the-art. We benchmark our proposal in terms of candidates’ validity and sample uniqueness. The results showed that, with our GAN, the performance of a traditional subdomain enumeration workflow increased by up to 61%. In addition, according to our
ground truth experiments, the GAN was able to guess, on average, 32% of subdomains.

Rehabilitation, suburbs, historic city, Agrigento (Rehabilitación, suburbs, ciudad histórica, Agrigento)
Research on the rehabilitation of a district of the suburbs of the historic Italian city of Agrigento, from reinterpreting historical frame in a new key to space utilization invites reflection on the concept of urban regeneration in historic areas medium cities of Euro-Mediterranean context, at a time when the growth of cities seems to enter a phase of stagnation in which the tourism component of these areas reveals a possibility of urban transformation. The article proposes a methodology for analysis and intervention Rabato district in which energy efficiency, implementation of smart technologies and citizen participation are complemented by the incorporation of economic, cultural and social values, to build an expanded concept of smart city. In addition, we propose the creation of a mapping system and visualization of urban data, which may constitute a network of historic smart cities, which serve to transfer and share knowledge and intervention methodologies.
La investigación sobre la rehabilitación de un barrio de los arrabales de la ciudad histórica italiana de Agrigento a partir de la reinterpretación de su trama histórica en una nueva clave de aprovechamiento del espacio, invita a reflexionar sobre el concepto de regeneración urbana en áreas históricas de ciudades medias del contexto euro mediterráneo, en un momento en el que el crecimiento de las ciudades parece entrar en una fase de estancamiento y en el que la componente turística de estos ámbitos se revela como una posibilidad de transformación urbana. El artículo propone una metodología sobre el análisis y la intervención en el barrio del Rabato en el que la eficiencia energética, la implementación de tecnologías smart y la participación ciudadana, se complementan con la incorporación de los valores patrimoniales, culturales y sociales para construir un concepto expandido de ciudad inteligente. Además, se propone la creación de un sistema de mapeo y visibilización de datos urbanos, que pudieran constituir una red de ciudades históricas smart, que sirviese para transferir y compartir conocimiento y metodologías de intervención.

Parlare di Giuseppe Benedetto Portale è, ad un tempo, semplicissimo compito e ardua fatica. Semplicissimo, perché l’intera comunità scientifica e accademica ne conosce l’alta figura di studioso, ne ha letto gli impareggiabili scritti, sa ripercorrere il cammino tematico e riconoscerne l’autorevolezza e le suggestioni: non a caso, tra i pochi a potersi fregiare del ruolo eponimo di argomenti e metodo, appunto, “portaliani”. Arduo, di conseguenza, trovare parole che non siano già state spese, elogi che non suonino stucchevolmente ripetitivi, notazioni che possano aspirare ad una parvenza di originalità. Valgano dunque le parole del volume che qui Gli dedichiamo, parole di allievi, colleghi, amici che si sono dapprima raccolti attorno a un tavolo in una giornata celebrativa del Suo ottantesimo compleanno alla Facoltà di Giurisprudenza dell’Università degli Studi di Trento, quindi hanno voluto seguitare il colloquio ideale a più voci con il Suo magistero, filo rosso ininterrotto della speculazione e della ricerca nel campo del diritto commerciale. Il dialogo con un Maestro è sempre un privilegio, ma di fronte all’incedere erratico e discorde di una legislazione sempre più dimentica di un orizzonte di sistema, diviene momento irrinunciabile per nobilitare la funzione stessa dell’interpretare, del ricomporre grazie alla conoscenza profonda di istituti, ordinamenti e principî un disegno razionale e coerente. Questo libro vuole essere un piccolo segno di riconoscimento, e di omaggio.

Non-Symmetrized Hyperspherical Harmonics Method Applied to Light Hypernuclei
Ferrari Ruffino, Fabrizio
Ferrari Ruffino, Fabrizio
Orlandini, Giuseppina
Settore FIS/04 - Fisica Nucleare e Subnucleare
The present work is conducted in the field of few-body methods and it concerns the extension of the Non-Symmetrized Hyperspherical Harmonics method in order to treat quantum systems with different species of particles and additional degrees of freedom, like particle mixing. The aim is to introduce it as a new tool in the ab-initio study of light hypernuclei, and, more in general, of few-body quantum systems composed by a variety of different objects. To this end precise benchmark results for light hypernuclei with A=3-5 are provided and the perspectives of applications to systems with A>5 and the employment of the most recent hypernuclear interactions are discussed.

COVID-19
Critical care
Pneumonia
SARS-CoV-2
Surge capacity
Purpose: To accommodate the unprecedented number of critically ill patients with pneumonia caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) expansion of the capacity of intensive care unit (ICU) to clinical areas not previously used for critical care was necessary. We describe the global burden of COVID-19 admissions and the clinical and organizational characteristics associated with outcomes in critically ill COVID-19 patients. Methods: Multicenter, international, point prevalence study, including adult patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and a diagnosis of COVID-19 admitted to ICU between February 15th and May 15th, 2020. Results: 4994 patients from 280 ICUs in 46 countries were included. Included ICUs increased their total capacity from 4931 to 7630 beds, deploying personnel from other areas. Overall, 1986 (39.8%) patients were admitted to surge capacity beds. Invasive ventilation at admission was present in 2325 (46.5%) patients and was required during ICU stay in 85.8% of patients. 60-day mortality was 33.9% (IQR across units: 20%-50%) and ICU mortality 32.7%. Older age, invasive mechanical ventilation, and acute kidney injury (AKI) were associated with increased mortality. These associations were also confirmed specifically in mechanically ventilated patients. Admission to surge capacity beds was not associated with mortality, even after controlling for other factors. Conclusions: ICUs responded to the increase in COVID-19 patients by increasing bed availability and staff, admitting up to 40% of patients in surge capacity beds. Although mortality in this population was high, admission to a surge capacity bed was not associated with increased mortality. Older age, invasive mechanical ventilation, and AKI were identified as the strongest predictors of mortality.

The aim of this study was the optimization and validation of a green, robust, and comprehensive method for the determination of volatile carbonyl compounds (VCCs) in wines that could be added as a new quality control tool for the evaluation of a complete fermentation, correct winemaking style, and proper bottling and storage. A HS-SPME-GC-MS/MS method was optimized and automated using the autosampler to improve overall performance. A solvent-less technique and a strong minimization of all volumes were implemented to comply with the green analytical chemistry principles. There were as many as 44 VCC (mainly linear aldehydes, Strecker aldehydes, unsaturated aldehydes, ketones, and many other) analytes under investigation. All compounds showed a good linearity, and the LOQs were abundantly under the relevant perception thresholds. Intraday, 5-day interday repeatability, and recovery performances in a spiked real sample were evaluated showing satisfactory results. The method was applied to determine the evolution of VCCs in white and red wines after accelerated aging for 5 weeks at 50 degrees C. Furans and linear and Strecker aldehydes were the compounds that showed the most important variation; many VCCs increased in both classes of samples, whereas some showed different behaviors between white and red cultivars. The obtained results are in strong accordance with the latest models on carbonyl evolution related to wine aging.

Touching Autism Spectrum Disorder: Somatosensory Abnormalities in Shank3b and Cntnap2 Mouse Models

Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) represent a heterogeneous group of neurodevelopmental disorders characterised by deficits in social interaction and communication, and by restricted and stereotyped behaviour. The diagnosis of autism is based on behavioural observation of the subject as research has not yet identified specific markers. Today, several studies show that disturbances in sensory processing are a crucial feature of autism. Indeed, around 90% of individuals diagnosed with autism show atypical responses to various sensory stimuli. These sensory abnormalities (described as hyper- or hypo-reactivity to sensory stimulation) are currently recognised as diagnostic criteria for autism. Among the sensory defects, tactile abnormalities represent a very common finding impacting the life of autistic individuals. It has been shown how abnormal responses to tactile stimuli not only correlate with the diagnosis of autism but also predict its severity. Indeed hypo-responsiveness to tactile stimuli is associated with greater severity of the main symptoms of autism. To date, the neural substrates of these behaviours are still poorly understood. Over the years, the use of genetically modified animal models has enabled a major step forward in the study of the aetiology of autism spectrum disorders. Interestingly, several animal models that carry autism-related mutations also show deficits of a sensory nature. This is the case with the Shank3b-/- and Cntnap2-/- mouse models, strains in which the expression of the gene in question is suppressed. The SHANK3 gene encodes for a crucial protein in the structure of the postsynaptic density of glutamatergic synapses. In humans, haploinsufficiency of SHANK3 causes the Phelan-McDermid syndrome, a neurodevelopmental disorder characterised by ASD-like behaviour, developmental delay, intellectual disability and absent or severely delayed speech. Individuals with Phelan-McDermid syndrome often show dysfunctions in somatosensory processing, including disturbances in tactile sensitivity. CNTNAP2 codes for CASPR2, a transmembrane protein of the neurexin superfamily involved in neuron-glia interactions and clustering of potassium channels in myelinated axons. Missense mutation in CNTNAP2 is causative of cortical dysplasia-focal epilepsy syndrome (CDFE), a rare disorder characterized by epileptic seizures, language regression, intellectual disability, and autism. Following these findings, mice lacking the Shank3b isoform (Shank3b-/-) and Cntnap2 gene (Cntnap2-/-) show autistic-like behaviours.
In this study, we used an interdisciplinary approach (behavioural, molecular, and imaging techniques) to study the neuronal substrates of whisker-mediated behaviours in genetic mouse models of ASD. We performed two behavioural tests, namely the textured novel object recognition test (tNORT) and the whisker nuisance test (WN) to have in-depth insight in whisker dependent behaviours. Following behavioural assessment, through a molecular approach, we investigated the neural underpinnings of this aberrant behaviour. We evaluated neuronal activation in key brain areas involved in the processing of sensory stimuli via c-fos mRNA in situ hybridization. Finally, using a seed-based approach in resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rsfMRI) we probed the functional connectivity phenotype of these mutant mice. The contribution of the peripheral nervous system to sensory processing was also assessed via RT-qPCR at the level of the trigeminal ganglion. Sensory abnormalities that characterize ASDs represent a symptom of primary relevance in the life of autistic individuals. Scientific research has only recently addressed this important aspect and animal models represent a useful preclinical tool to investigate the causal role of genetic mutations in the aetiology of ASDs. In such context, the complementary approach used in this work represents a crucial step to the understanding of sensory-related deficits which characterize ASD.
