Orveliskie motīvi Haruki Murakami darbā „1Q84”
2017
Šī darba izstrādes gaitā autors ir veicis pētījumu par angļu literatūras klasiķa Džordža Orvela romāna „1984” ietekmi uz populārā mūsdienu japāņu autora Haruki Murakami sarakstīto romānu „1Q84”. Darbā tiek izmantotas salīdzināšanas un analīzes metodes, ar kuru palīdzību tiek tuvāk pētīti galvenie motīvi, kas parādās abos literārajos darbos. Mūsdienās sabiedrība pievērš arvien lielāku uzmanību tādām tēmām kā propaganda un dažādas valsts vadīšanas sistēmas, tāpēc šie abu autoru romāni ir kļuvuši ļoti aktuāli un tajos ir negaidītas analoģijas ar mūsdienu pasaulē notiekošo. Darbā tiek tuvāk izklāstīta arī abu autoru biogrāfija un literārā darbība. Pēc tam tiek veikta tekstu analīze un salīdzinā…
Strong stabilization of amorphous calcium carbonate emulsion by ovalbumin: gaining insight into the mechanism of 'polymer-induced liquid precursor' p…
2011
8 pages; International audience; The impact of the ovo proteins ovalbumin and lysozyme-present in the first stage of egg shell formation-on the homogeneous formation of the liquid amorphous calcium carbonate (LACC) precursor, was studied by a combination of complementing methods: in situ WAXS, SANS, XANES, TEM, and immunogold labeling. Lysozyme (pI = 9.3) destabilizes the LACC emulsion whereas the glycoprotein ovalbumin (pI = 4.7) extends the lifespan of the emulsified state remarkably. In the light of the presented data: (a) Ovalbumin is shown to behave commensurable to the 'polymer-induced liquid precursor' (PILP) process proposed by Gower et al. Ovalbumin can be assumed to take a key rol…
An siRNA-based functional genomics screen for the identification of regulators of ciliogenesis and ciliopathy genes
2015
Item does not contain fulltext Defects in primary cilium biogenesis underlie the ciliopathies, a growing group of genetic disorders. We describe a whole-genome siRNA-based reverse genetics screen for defects in biogenesis and/or maintenance of the primary cilium, obtaining a global resource. We identify 112 candidate ciliogenesis and ciliopathy genes, including 44 components of the ubiquitin-proteasome system, 12 G-protein-coupled receptors, and 3 pre-mRNA processing factors (PRPF6, PRPF8 and PRPF31) mutated in autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa. The PRPFs localize to the connecting cilium, and PRPF8- and PRPF31-mutated cells have ciliary defects. Combining the screen with exome sequen…
The landscape of strongholds
2016
La difesa dei territori ha offerto risultati straordinari alla formazione e alla trasformazione del territorio e del paesaggio, a volte con tratti spettacolari e dimensioni incredibili. La celebrazione del centenario dell’inizio della Prima guerra mondiale ha offerto lo spunto per una riflessione sulle ricadute indotte sul paesaggio dagli eventi bellici, e più in generale dalla realizzazione di strutture difensive e del loro rapporto con il paesaggio circostante. Territorial defence led to extraordinary results in terms of forming and transforming the territory and landscape, at times with spectacular sights and incredible sizes. The one hundred year anniversary since the beginning of the F…
The Contribution of Microchemical Analyses and Diagnostic Imaging to the Conservation and Identification of the Degraded Surfaces of Hellenistic-Roma…
2020
The Archaeological Museum of Palermo (Sicily) has recently presented the results of the restoration of three wall paintings from the House of the Masks of Solunto archaeological site. These significant paintings, dating back to the first century BCE, are the most significant examples of Pompeian style discovered in Sicily to date. The cycle of frescoes unearthed is the best preserved and most complete example of wall painting dating to the Republican Roman period in Sicily. This house was a luxurious private residence built on two floors and centred around a peristyle. This fresco cycle embellished the walls of a banquet room (oecus) discovered during an archaeological excavation carried ou…
Photodegradation of selected phthalates on mural painting surfaces under UV light irradiation
2014
Abstract The esters of phthalic acid are considered as hazardous pollutants due to their mutagenicity, carcinogenicity and are also classified as endocrine disruptor chemicals. Several compounds of this class of substances for decades, and probably even now, were used as softeners in water-based synthetic paintings. Surfaces and structures, such as house walls painted with phthalates based paintings, can be a concern to construction workers engaged in demolition, restore and paint removal activities if they are not protected from hazardous dust inhalation. In this paper we report the results of an investigation about phthalate ester degradation by direct UV irradiation at 254 nm. The result…
Los <i>Padres de la Iglesia</i> de Joaquín Oliet y la obra de Francisco de Goya
2008
The painter from Castellón, Joaquin Oliet Cruellas, carried out prolific mural decorations for various churches in Valencia, Alicante and Castellón in which his intense visual culture is evident. Especially interesting are the series of Fathers of the Latin Church painted for several of these churches, which display, with variants, compositions identical to those attributed to Francisco de Goya in Calatayud, Muel and Remolinos.<br><br>El pintor castellonense Joaquín Oliet Cruella realizó para diversas parroquias valencianas, castellonenses y alicantinas una prolífica decoración mural, en la que es palpable una intensa cultura visual.

Le superfici murarie a vista: restauri a Palermo e a Rodi (fine se. XIX- prima metà sec. XX)
2018
Il saggio indaga la particolare tecnica di restauro delle superfici murarie lasciate a vista dell’architettura medievale considerando alcuni casi nella città di Palermo e di Rodi in Grecia (fine del sec. XIX - prima metà del sec. XX). In particolare, dopo avere eliminato gli strati di intonaco, anche quelli coevi alla costruzione, l’architettura medievale era sottoposta ad interventi di rifacimento delle superfici sia interne che esterne, mediante la tecnica dell’”impiallicciatura”, cioè ricostruendo i filari dei conci delle murature con materiale simile per natura, dimensioni e colore, o estraendo il concio degradato, resecando la parte ammalorata e ricollocandolo nella muratura. Questa op…
Search for coherent charged pion production in neutrino-carbon interactions
2005
We report the result from a search for charged-current coherent pion production induced by muon neutrinos with a mean energy of 1.3 GeV. The data are collected with a fully active scintillator detector in the K2K long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment. No evidence for coherent pion production is observed and an upper limit of $0.60 \times 10^{-2}$ is set on the cross section ratio of coherent pion production to the total charged-current interaction at 90% confidence level. This is the first experimental limit for coherent charged pion production in the energy region of a few GeV.
Evidence for Muon Neutrino Oscillation in an Accelerator-Based Experiment
2005
We present results for muon neutrino oscillation in the KEK to Kamioka (K2K) long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment. K2K uses an accelerator-produced muon neutrino beam with a mean energy of 1.3 GeV directed at the Super-Kamiokande detector. We observed the energy dependent disappearance of muon neutrino, which we presume have oscillated to tau neutrino. The probability that we would observe these results if there is no neutrino oscillation is 0.0050% (4.0 sigma).
