Search for lepton-flavor-violating decays of the Z boson into a τ lepton and a light lepton with the ATLAS detector

2018

Direct searches for lepton flavor violation in decays of the Z boson with the ATLAS detector at the LHC are presented. Decays of the Z boson into an electron or muon and a hadronically decaying r l ...

Search for a multi-Higgs-boson cascade inW+W−bb¯events with the ATLAS detector inppcollisions ats=8  TeV

2014

A search is presented for new particles in an extension to the Standard Model that includes a heavy Higgs boson (H-0), an intermediate charged Higgs-boson pair (H-+/-), and a light Higgs boson (h(0)). The analysis searches for events involving the production of a single heavy neutral Higgs boson which decays to the charged Higgs boson and a W boson, where the charged Higgs boson subsequently decays into a W boson and the lightest neutral Higgs boson decaying to a bottom-antibottom-quark pair. Such a cascade results in a W-boson pair and a bottom-antibottom-quark pair in the final state. Events with exactly one lepton, missing transverse momentum, and at least four jets are selected from a d…

Entropy characteristics of heart rate wavelet multiscale components in epileptic children before and after seizures

2020

In this work, we analyze the information content of the multiple time scale components of heart rate variability (HRV) in children with focal epilepsy. HRV components are extracted from 30 pediatric patients, monitored 10 min and 10 s before and after focal epileptic seizures, using wavelet multiscale decomposition (with 5, 15, 30, 60, 120, 180 s time scale), and then characterized computing Entropy (E), permutation entropy (PE), conditional entropy (CE) and information storage (IS). Moving from preictal to postictal windows, we find statistically significant differences in the CE and IS values of HRV components at short time scales, which reflect autonomic imbalance and appear as potential…

Refrigerated Fruit Juices: Quality and Safety Issues

2007

Fruit juices are an important source of bioactive compounds, but techniques used for their processing and subsequent storage may cause alterations in their contents so they do not provide the benefits expected by the consumer. In recent years consumers have increasingly sought so-called "fresh" products (like fresh products), stored in refrigeration. This has led the food industry to develop alternative processing technologies to produce foods with a minimum of nutritional, physicochemical, or organoleptic changes induced by the technologies themselves. Attention has also focused on evaluating the microbiological or toxicological risks that may be involved in applying these processes, and t…

Histoincompatibility reactions in the hydrocoral Millepora dichotoma

1983

The xenogeneic- and allogeneic immunological specificity of the hydrocoral Millepora dichotoma has been investigated. Xenogeneic histoicompatibility reactions have been observed between this hydrocoral and a series of species belonging to the Demospongiae and to the Anthozoa (both Hexacorallia and Octocorallia). The xenogeneic histoincompatibility reactions proceed in the following sequence: (a) Species-unspecific sensitization; (b) necrosis formation, which is very likely due to an autolytic process; (c) callus formation, due to an hyperplastic growth of stolons; and (d) formation of a contact barrier in form of a barrier layer or a restored stolonial layer. Allogeneic histoincompatibility…

PCP: An End-to end Measurement Based Call Admission Control for Real-Time Services Over IP Networks

2000

Distributed end-to-end measurement based connection admission control mechanisms have been recently proposed. The goal of these schemes is to provide tight QoScon trol on a per connection basis by means of measurements taken by the edge nodes and priority based forwarding procedure at internal nodes. Since the additional flows handling procedures are implemented at the border routers and the forwarding mechanisms are for flows aggregates only, the approach is fully scalable and compatible with the IETF Differentiated Service proposal. The aim of this paper is to propose specific schemes and to investigate the advantages and limits of the approach by analyzing the basic mechanisms and evalua…

Di madre in figlio: fuoco, punizione e riti nella Pitica III di Pindaro

2021

Argomento dell’articolo sono i miti di Coronide e del figlio Asclepio nella Pitica 3 di Pindaro, in cui l’immagine del fuoco assume particolare rilievo in relazione ad entrambi. Asclepio è sottratto dal padre, Apollo, al corpo della madre che brucia sulla pira funeraria, e colpito dal fulmine di Zeus dopo aver cercato di riportare in vita un morto: il ciclo della sua esistenza – precedente alla divinizzazione – sembra pertanto replicare quello di Coronide, che si unisce ad un mortale mentre porta in grembo il figlio di Apollo, ed infrange la legge umana che prescrive i riti nuziali. Apollo causa quindi la sua morte attraverso l’intervento della sorella Artemide, che è detta θύοισα (‘furente…

The costs of putting Valencia on the map: the hidden side of regional entrepreneurialism, ‘creative city’ and strategic projects

2018

Strategic projects based on culture and sports have been one of the vectors of regional development since the 1990s. Accordingly, local and regional governments have drawn up entrepreneurial strate...

Urban Development and Cultural Policy “White Elephants”: Barcelona and Valencia

2015

AbstractThe importance of culture in defining new models of local development has been increasingly emphasized. However, less attention has been paid to the influence of local development models on local cultural policy. This article will focus on analysing two cities that have used culture as a central element in their economic and urban development. In both cases, they have followed different strategies but the two have finally finished generating two “white elephants”: the Universal Forum of Cultures in the case of Barcelona and the City of Arts and Sciences in the case of Valencia. From a comparison of the two cases, the paper analyses the causes of this urban phenomenon, which combines…
