“There is something very pompous in his style”: an analysis of Mr Collins’ social missteps in Pride and Prejudice
2019
Kandidaatin tutkielmani käsittelee Jane Austenin rakastettua romaania Ylpeyttä ja Ennakkoluuloa (Pride and Prejudice) ja erityisesti siinä esiintyvää sivuhahmoa, Mr Collinsia. Tavoitteeni oli selvittää, miksi sekä lukijat että kirjassa olevat hahmot yleisesti pitävät kyseistä hahmoa samanaikaisesti sietämättömänä sekä huvittavana. Keskityin siis löytämään mahdollisia kohteliaisuusrikkomuksia sekä niiden seurauksia Mr Collinsin ja muiden hahmojen dialogeista. Nämä rikkomukset selittävät hahmon huonon vastaanoton. Analysoin kolmea tärkeää kohtausta, joissa erityisesti korostuivat Mr Collinsin ja muiden hahmojen väliset väärinymmärrykset sekä Mr Collinsin aiheuttamat kiusalliset tilanteet. Näi…
"Table 4" of "First measurement of quarkonium polarization in nuclear collisions at the LHC"
2021
J/$\psi$ polarization parameters, measured for Pb--Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}=5.02$ TeV, in the helicity and Collins-Soper reference frames in the rapidity interval $2.5
Measurement of azimuthal hadron asymmetries in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering off unpolarised nucleons
2014
Spin-averaged asymmetries in the azimuthal distributions of positive and negative hadrons produced in deep inelastic scattering were measured using the CERN SPS muon beam at $160$ GeV/c and a $^6$LiD target. The amplitudes of the three azimuthal modulations $\cos\phi_h$, $\cos2\phi_h$ and $\sin\phi_h$ were obtained binning the data separately in each of the relevant kinematic variables $x$, $z$ or $p_T^{\,h}$ and binning in a three-dimensional grid of these three variables. The amplitudes of the $\cos \phi_h$ and $\cos 2\phi_h$ modulations show strong kinematic dependencies both for positive and negative hadrons.
Measurement of the Collins and Sivers asymmetries on transversely polarised protons
2010
The Collins and Sivers asymmetries for charged hadrons produced in deeply inelastic scattering on transversely polarised protons have been extracted from the data collected in 2007 with the CERN SPS muon beam tuned at 160 GeV/c. At large values of the Bjorken x variable non-zero Collins asymmetries are observed both for positive and negative hadrons while the Sivers asymmetry for positive hadrons is slightly positive over almost all the measured x range. These results nicely support the present theoretical interpretation of these asymmetries, in terms of leading-twist quark distribution and fragmentation functions.
Collins and Sivers asymmetries for pions and kaons in muon-deuteron DIS
2008
The measurements of the Collins and Sivers asymmetries of identified hadrons produced in deep-inelastic scattering of 160 GeV/c muons on a transversely polarised 6LiD target at COMPASS are presented. The results for charged pions and charged and neutral kaons correspond to all data available, which were collected from 2002 to 2004. For all final state particles both the Collins and Sivers asymmetries turn out to be small, compatible with zero within the statistical errors, in line with the previously published results for not identified charged hadrons, and with the expected cancellation between the u- and d-quark contributions.
A new measurement of the Collins and Sivers asymmetries on a transversely polarised deuteron target
2007
New high precision measurements of the Collins and Sivers asymmetries of charged hadrons produced in deep-inelastic scattering of muons on a transversely polarised 6LiD target are presented. The data were taken in 2003 and 2004 with the COMPASS spectrometer using the muon beam of the CERN SPS at 160 GeV/c. Both the Collins and Sivers asymmetries turn out to be compatible with zero, within the present statistical errors, which are more than a factor of 2 smaller than those of the published COMPASS results from the 2002 data. The final results from the 2002, 2003 and 2004 runs are compared with naive expectations and with existing model calculations.
Desmosomes: interconnected calcium-dependent structures of remarkable stability with significant integral membrane protein turnover
2002
Desmosomes are prominent cell adhesion structures that are major stabilizing elements, together with the attached cytoskeletal intermediate filament network, of the cytokeratin type in epithelial tissues. To examine desmosome dynamics in tightly coupled cells and in situations of decreased adhesion, fluorescent desmosomal cadherin desmocollin 2a (Dsc2a) chimeras were stably expressed in human hepatocellular carcinoma-derived PLC cells (clone PDc-13) and in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells (clone MDc-2) for the continuous monitoring of desmosomes in living cells. The hybrid polypeptides integrated specifically and without disturbance into normal-appearing desmosomes that occurred in associati…
El potencial cohesionador de les Falles de la Secció Especial 1981-2020 al voltant dels valors conservadors i tradicionals
2021
En aquest treball es planteja "El potencial cohesionador de les falles de la Secció Especial 1981-2020 al voltant de valors conservadors i tradicionals". Aquest estudi mostra com les falles tenen un potencial cohesionador molt elevat i constitueixen un factor de creació d’identitat molt potent. No obstant, es constata que el tradicionalisme i el conservadorisme no son valors únics dintre de la Secció Especial. L’existència de discursos i ideologies alternatives, associades al progressisme, es mostra en una minoria de falles, així com el conservadorisme i el tradicionalisme faller es mostrarien com hegemònics, però no com únics. En aquest estudi és fonamental, ja que es centra en l’element c…
First measurement of the Sivers asymmetry for gluons using SIDIS data
2017
The Sivers function describes the correlation between the transverse spin of a nucleon and the transverse motion of its partons. It was extracted from measurements of the azimuthal asymmetry of hadrons produced in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering of leptons off transversely polarised nucleon targets, and it turned out to be non-zero for quarks. In this letter the evaluation of the Sivers asymmetry for gluons in the same process is presented. The analysis method is based on a Monte Carlo simulation that includes three hard processes: photon-gluon fusion, QCD Compton scattering and leading-order virtual-photon absorption process. The Sivers asymmetries of the three processes are simul…
