Tur e Iraj, Caín y Abel: Semejanzas iconográficas en la interminable lucha del mal y el bien.

2015

ABSTRACT: The duality between good and evil is a common topic in all civilizations regardless of chronology or geographical location. It is a conflict reflected in art history, and on the present occasion, through the iconographic types of Cain killing Abel as well as Tur murdering Iraj. The roots of these myths are deeply embedded in two highly relevant written sources, the Bible and the Shahnameh or The Book of Kings . The latter was written by the great Iranian poet Ferdowsi.  The legends, despite having different origins, nevertheless have many similarities and they share a particular iconographic type. I analyze each of the myths along with their pictorial representations, which connec…

Pseudo-Jahn–Teller Origin of the Metastable States in Sodium Nitroprusside

2003

Abstract A new model for the photochromic effect in sodium nitroprusside Na 2 [Fe(CN) 5 (NO)]·2H 2 O based on the concept of the pseudo-Jahn–Teller effect is proposed. The model takes into account the electron transfer from the Fe 2+ ion to the π ∗ orbitals of the NO-ligand as well as the vibronic mixing of three electronic states of the Fe–NO fragment through the non-symmetric and full symmetric modes. The problem is solved within the adiabatic approximation. Under certain conditions, the lower sheet of the adiabatic potential is shown to possess three minima with the increasing energies that correspond to the N-bound, sideways bound, and O-bound NO group. The barriers between the minima a…

On john maynard keynes's anti-semitism once again: A documentary note

2015

This note presents new archival evidence about John Maynard Keynes' attitudes toward Jews. The relevant material is composed of two letters sent by Robert G. Wertheimer to Bertrand Russell and Richard F. Kahn along with their replies. Between 1963 and 1964, Wertheimer - An Austrian-born Jewish immigrant then professor of economics at Babson College - wrote to Russell and Kahn asking for their personal reminiscences concerning Keynes' anti-Semitic utterances. In their brief but still significant responses, both Russell and Kahn firmly denied any hint of anti-Semitism in Keynes, thereby providing significant first-hand testimonies from two of his closest acquaintances.

Anomalous High-Pressure Jahn-Teller Behavior inCuWO4

2012

High-pressure optical-absorption measurements performed in CuWO4 up to 20 GPa provide experimental evidence of the persistence of the Jahn-Teller (JT) distortion in the whole pressure range both in the low-pressure triclinic and in the highpressure monoclinic phase. The electron-lattice coupling associated with the eg(Exe) and t2g(Txe) orbitals of Cu2+ in CuWO4 are obtained from correlations between the JT distortion of the CuO6 octahedron and the associated structure of Cu2+ d-electronic levels. This distortion and its associated JT energy (EJT) decrease upon compression in both phases. However, both the distortion and associated EJT increase sharply at the phase transition pressure (PT = …

Mn3+ in garnets III. Absence of Jahn-Teller distorition in synthetic Mn3+-bearing garnet

1985

The crystal structure of a ternary Mn3+-bearing garnet, close to the composition Gross34 Spess26 CaMnGt40 has been refined to a weighted R-value of 0.051 for 440 unique reflections. The lattice constant is 11.867(1) A, fractional atomic parameters for oxygen are x=0.0374 (2), y=0.0470 (2), and z=0.6532 (2). Refinement of site occupancies gave 0.81 (3) Ca+0.19 (3) Mn2+ in the eight coordinated site 24c and 0.64 (2) Al+0.36 (2) Mn3+ in the octahedral site 16a. No deviation from the cubic space group Ia3d has been observed, the Mn3+-bearing YO6 octahedron is nearly regular. Thus, the presence of the 3d 4-configurated ion Mn3+ does not cause Jahn-Teller distortion in this garnet structure.

Polynomials generated by linear operators

2004

We study the class of Banach algebra-valued n n -homogeneous polynomials generated by the n t h n^{th} powers of linear operators. We compare it with the finite type polynomials. We introduce a topology w E F w_{EF} on E , E, similar to the weak topology, to clarify the features of these polynomials.

Intenzionalità collettiva, ontologia sociale e mindreading

2014

In his Collective Intentions and Actions John Searle argued that having a preintentional sense of others as at least potentially cooperative agents “like me” is a necessary condition of collective intentionality. He also argued, in Rationality in Action, that understanding others qua intentional agents necessarily presupposes rationality because rational constraints are built into the logical structure of intentional phenomena. In this paper we will try to specify further these claims in the light of current debate on mindreading, where other-understanding is spelled out either in terms of automatic, subpersonal simulative mechanisms, or in terms of normative, rational principles. We will a…

Evidence for Photoinduced Hole Coupling in BaTiO3:Co

1995

A possible photoinduced correlation mechanism in BaTiO 3 : Co is described. The underlying microscopic process is a local hole photoinjection at a Co 3+ site close to a preexisting metastable hole, The Jahn-Teller field at the Co 2+ site transfers this pair of holes in the next cell along the rhombic direction [111] before normal polaronic or band conduction. The spatial extension of this correlation depends on a characteristic «delocalization» length. This unstable conductive state appears to be possibly frozen in a permanent way below T c

Crystal structure of SrMn2(Si2O7)(OH)2 H2O, a new mineral of the lawsonite type

1992

Crystal with the composition SrMn 2 [Si 2 O 7 ](OH) 2 .H 2 O were found in a sugilite, serandite-pectolite rich sample from the Wessels Mine, Kalahari, South Africa. The crystal structure of the nex compound with space group Cmcm, a = 6.255(1), b = 9.034(2), c = 13.397(2) A, Z = 4 was determined from X-ray single-crystal data (R = 0.048). The structure is of the lawsonite type where Al is completely replaced by Mn 3+ and Ca by Sr. [Mn 3+ O 6 ] octahedra forming edge-sharing chains parallel to a exhibit a Jahn-Teller distortion with four short and two long Mn 3+ -O distances. Sr is in eight-fold coordination and H 2 O is disordered on a split position. Together with orientite, macfallite, ru…
