Employment trajectories until midlife associate with early social role investments and current work-related well-being
2021
Applying social investment theory (SIT), we examined whether employment trajectories until midlife, with differential investments in education and employment, are associated with social investments during early life and with work-related well-being in midlife, with a special reference to potential differences between self-employment and paid work. In the Northern Finland Birth Cohort 1966 (n = 6496; 2963 men, 3533 women), life-history calendars from age 16 to 45 were used to determine the respondents’ yearly employment statuses (student, full-time employee, part-time employee, self-employed, unemployed, on parental leave, on sabbatical leave or otherwise not working). Latent class analysis …
Multiwavelength study of accretion-powered pulsars
2010
My PhD thesis consists in a multi-frequency approach to High Mass X-ray Binaries (HMXBs), using infrared and X-ray data. On one side, my research project aimed at the identification and characterization of IR counterparts to obscured HMXBs in the Scutum and Norma inner galactic arms. The identification of optical/IR counterparts to HMXBs is a necessary step to undertake detailed studies of these systems. With data limited to the high-energy range, the understanding of their complex structure and dynamics cannot be complete. In the last years, INTEGRAL has revealed the presence of an important population of heavily absorbed HMXBs in the Scutum and Norma regions, virtually unobservable below …
New Insights into Galaxy Clusters: from Simulations to Observations
2011
The work carried out during this Thesis is framed within the field of Numerical Cosmology and focused on several broad lines intimately related which deal with the theoretical and numerical study of galaxy clusters: (i) the halo-finding problem, (ii) new improvements in cosmological simulations, and (iii) the formation and evolution of galaxy clusters. In spite of the achievements reached by Computational Cosmology in the last years, present-day hydrodynamics/N-body simulations still present important discrepancies with the observations, especially in the inner regions of massive galaxy clusters. Among these discrepancies we can cite, for instance, the breaking up of the self-similar scalin…
Asteroseismology and mass loss in Be stars. Study with CoRoT
2010
The interiors of the stars are among the most difficult parts of the Universe to observe. Essentially, asteroseismology tries to make use of the oscillations to prove the stellar interiors, which are not directly observable. The basic principles of asteroseismology are, to a certain extent, similar to those developed and employed by Earth seismologists. Asteroseismology relies on advanced mathematical descriptions of oscillations in a three-dimensional body and numerical modeling. It is therefore a prominent example of interdisciplinary science. The general aim of this work is the study of Be stars with the CoRoT space mission. Classical Be stars are B-type stars that exhibit line emission …

La Muestra Continua de Vidas Laborales (MCVL) como fuente generadora de datos para el estudio del sistema de pensiones
2015
Esta tesis tiene como elemento fundamental de análisis la denominada Muestra Continua de Vidas Laborales (MCVL), como fuente generadora de datos para el estudio del sistema de público de pensiones de España. La MCVL es un conjunto de microdatos individuales anonimizados extraídos de los registros de la Seguridad Social de España. La MCVL se obtiene a partir de un Muestreo Aleatorio Simple (MAS) sobre la población de referencia (conjunto de personas relacionadas durante todo el año con la Seguridad Social, bien como afiliadas o bien como perceptoras de prestaciones, pero con ciertos matices en dicha relación). Los objetivos principales de esta tesis son: - Contribuir a aumentar el conocimien…
Reflexiones a propósito de la protección de datos en el escenario global digital: El derecho de daños en la litigiosidad internacional
2021
La circulación internacional de datos personales constituye un sector pujante en la esfera socio-económica. En tales condiciones, ante la existencia de un tratamiento ilícito de aquellos, el agraviado está legitimado para exigir una indemnización por los daños y perjuicios que se hubieran podido originar en el marco transfronterizo. Tal situación plantea dos cuestiones fundamentales: por un lado, determinar el órgano jurisdiccional competente para conocer de un eventual litigio, y, por otro, precisar la Ley aplicable para resolver la controversia suscitada. En la presente investigación cabe destacar las significativas novedades que introduce el Reglamento (UE) 2016/679, de 27 de abril de 20…
Financial assets and patrimonial issues in international families
2021
: The paper deals with patrimonial issues in International families and with the European Regulations 1103 and 1104/ 2016 together with regulation 650/2012. The paper particularly focuses on financial assets: Bank Account; Share of Investments Funds; Life Insurance; Virtual assets like criptovalutes; real estate wealth. This perspective implies the need to find the rule governing the succession or the families? patrimonial issues, also taking into account the different rules in the different states concerned of the contracts that govern the circulation of such goods.
Evolución de la normativa de la investigación Biomédica en España
2018
The ratification by the Spanish State of the ?Oviedo Convention? in 1999 implies a commitment to adapt to the legislation on biomedicine, since the normative instruments that respect it: guarantee the rights and fundamental freedoms of all and ensure dignity and identity of human beings. The object of this paper is the analysis of the Spanish normative norm in the field of research in human beings.
