Astronomiskās un dabas parādības aizvēsturē Ziemeļeiropā: atspoguļojums vēstures avotos un arheoloģiskajā materiālā
2021
Cilvēka dzīve aizvēsturē bija ļoti cieši saista ar dabu. Līdz ar pāreju uz ražotājsaimniecību vēlā akmens laikmeta beigās, bet īpaši sākot ar bronzas laikmetu, izveidojās ideoloģija, kurā centrālo vietu ieņēma Saule un ar to saistīto gadskārtu cikli. Solārā un lunārā simbolika plaši pārstāvēta Ziemeļeiropas, arī Latvijas arheoloģiskajā materiālā. Dabas un astronomiskās parādības minētas arī pirmajos rakstītajos avotos, bet to sekas – īpaši dabas katastrofu sekas, fiksējamas arī arheoloģiskajā materiālā.
Profit change and its drivers in the English and Welsh water industry: is output quality important?
2014
Abstract The assessment of profit change over time and its drivers is essential to analyse firms' financial performance. This paper investigates profit change and its components for the 10 English and Welsh water and sewerage water companies over the period 1991–2008 and for three regulatory sub-periods. Profit changes and their drivers are computed following two approaches, namely: without controlling for water and sewerage quality issues, and after decomposing the output effect into high quality and low quality output effect. In both cases, profit change is decomposed into various factors such as quantity and price effect, technical change, efficiency change, resource mix, product mix, an…
Viaggi nell’immaginario: il turismo virtuale nel sito UNESCO di Tarragona
2023
Le nuove tecnologie hanno trasformato in modo radicale non solo la geografia come disciplina, ma anche le geografie del mondo. Il digitale ha assunto, infatti, un ruolo di mediazione sempre più pervasivo nella produzione dello spazio, come delle conoscenze e degli immaginari geografici. Le possibilità offerte dal virtuale, in particolare, offrono oggi un contributo decisivo nella comunicazione dei significati attribuiti ai luoghi e rispondono in modo sempre più efficace ai bisogni emergenti del settore turistico. Le esperienze di visita mediate dal digitale mirano a coinvolgere i sensi e risultano efficaci quando promuovono immersioni rigorosamente realistiche. Nel quadro di queste riflessi…

A numerical study of the small dispersion limit of the Korteweg-de Vries equation and asymptotic solutions
2012
Abstract We study numerically the small dispersion limit for the Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation u t + 6 u u x + ϵ 2 u x x x = 0 for ϵ ≪ 1 and give a quantitative comparison of the numerical solution with various asymptotic formulae for small ϵ in the whole ( x , t ) -plane. The matching of the asymptotic solutions is studied numerically.
Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems
2014
The Conference on Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems (SDEWES) in 2015 returned to its hometown, Dubrovnik, and once again served as a significant venue for scientists and specialists in different areas of sustainable development from all over the world to initiate, discuss, share, and disseminate new ideas.At the 10th SDEWES Conference, about 500 participants from 64 countries delivered total 541 contributions - 5 invited lectures, 3 panels, 49 regular sessions, 17 special sessions and 5 poster sessions, aimed at deepening the knowledge body and scientific understanding, improvement of long-term scientific assessments, strengthening of scientific capacities aro…
Observation of individual spin quantum transitions of a single antiproton
2017
We report on the detection of individual spin quantum transitions of a single trapped antiproton in a Penning trap. The spin-state determination, which is based on the unambiguous detection of axial frequency shifts in presence of a strong magnetic bottle, reaches a fidelity of 92.1% . Spin-state initialization with >99.9% fidelity and an average initialization time of 24 min are demonstrated. This is a major step towards an antiproton magnetic moment measurement with a relative uncertainty on the part-per-billion level. We report on the detection of individual spin quantum transitions of a single trapped antiproton in a Penning trap. The spin-state determination, which is based on the unam…
Eivinas’ Visigothic Bezel
2019
Presentamos aquí el chatón de un anillo visigótico de procedencia desconocida y fechado probablemente en el siglo vii. El chatón contiene un único nombre: eivinas, posiblemente el primer testimonio epigráfico de un nombre báltico y más concretamente prusiano. This paper presents the bezel of a Visigothic ring of unknown origin and probably dated in the 7th century. The bezel contains a single name: eivinas, possibly the first epigraphic testimony of a Baltic, or more specifically Prussian name. Humanidades
Storm sewer pressurization transient – an experimental investigation
2014
Pipe pressurization is examined experimentally by 144 laboratory experiments in a circular tilting pipe between two tanks, in which the transient was triggered by sudden closing of the downstream tank outlet. The experiments cover ranges of values of slope, velocity and filling ratio of the open-channel flow not explored in previous studies. Situations involving considerable air quantity and consequent intense pressure oscillations were also reproduced. Two different pressurization patterns, defined as “smooth” and “abrupt”, were observed, but only the abrupt pattern produced intense pressure oscillations. The comparison among all the abrupt pressurization surges showed how the oscillations…
Search for High-energy Neutrinos from Gravitational Wave Event GW151226 and Candidate LVT151012 with ANTARES and IceCube
2017
[EN] The Advanced LIGO observatories detected gravitational waves from two binary black hole mergers during their first observation run (O1). We present a high-energy neutrino follow-up search for the second gravitational wave event, GW151226, as well as for gravitational wave candidate LVT151012. We find two and four neutrino candidates detected by IceCube, and one and zero detected by ANTARES, within +/- 500 s around the respective gravitational wave signals, consistent with the expected background rate. None of these neutrino candidates are found to be directionally coincident with GW151226 or LVT151012. We use nondetection to constrain isotropic-equivalent high-energy neutrino emission …
