A Switchable Molecular Rotator: Neutron Spectroscopy Study on a Polymeric Spin-Crossover Compound
2012
A quasielastic neutron scattering and solid-state 2H NMR spectroscopy study of the polymeric spin-crossover compound {Fe(pyrazine)[Pt(CN) 4]} shows that the switching of the rotation of a molecular fragment-the pyrazine ligand-occurs in association with the change of spin state. The rotation switching was examined on a wide time scale (10 -13-10 -3 s) by both techniques, which clearly demonstrated the combination between molecular rotation and spin-crossover transition under external stimuli (temperature and chemical). The pyrazine rings are seen to perform a 4-fold jump motion about the coordinating nitrogen axis in the high-spin state. In the low-spin state, however, the motion is suppres…
La costruzione dell’identità femminile nel franchismo: «Y» Revista femenina española (1938-1945)
2019
Soprattutto in determinati contesti storico-politici, l’istanza del potere partecipa in modo determinante alla costruzione dell’identità individuale, di gruppo e nazionale. Affinché ciò sia possibile, il potere deve mettere in pratica una serie di misure di controllo, ricorrendo, non solo a una politica violenta e repressiva, ma anche a concreti programmi sociali e, ovviamente, all’adozione di un discorso perlocutorio, che si faccia espressione dei valori di cui si nutre ogni regime. Nell’interazione tra discorso, cognizione e società (Van Dijk, 2009: 351), la stampa svolge un ruolo cruciale, dato che si configura come uno strumento in grado di influire sulle idee e le azioni di tutti gli a…
Macroscopic capillarity without a constitutive capillary pressure function
2006
This paper challenges the foundations of the macroscopic capillary pressure concept. The capillary pressure function, as it is traditionally assumed in the constitutive theory of two-phase immiscible displacement in porous media, relates the pressure difference between nonwetting and wetting fluid to the saturation of the wetting fluid. The traditional capillary pressure function neglects the fundamental difference between percolating and nonpercolating fluid regions as first emphasized in R. Hilfer [Macroscopic equations of motion for two phase flow in porous media, Phys. Rev. E 58 (1998) 2090]. The theoretical approach proposed here starts from residual saturations as the volume fractions…
On Rao Score and Pearson X2 Statistics in Generalized Linear Models
2005
The identity of the Rao score and PearsonX 2 statistics is well known in the areas where the latter was first introduced: goodness-of-fit in contingency tables and binary responses. We show in this paper that the same identity holds when the two statistics are used for testing goodness-of-fit of Generalized Linear Models. We also highlight the connections that exist between the two statistics when they are used for the comparison of nested models. Finally, we discuss some merits of these unifying results.
Cluster Monte Carlo algorithms
1990
Abstract The Swendsen-Wang and Wolff Monte Carlo algorithms are described in some detail, using the Potts model as an example. Various generalizations are then reviewed and some applications are discussed. Two complete Fortran programs for the algorithms are provided.
Quantization of the elastic modes in an isotropic plate
2006
We quantize the elastic modes in a plate. For this, we find a complete, orthogonal set of eigenfunctions of the elastic equations and we normalize them. These are the phonon modes in the plate and their specific forms and dispersion relations are manifested in low temperature experiments in ultra-thin membranes.
A criterion for entanglement in two two-level systems
2007
We prove a necessary and sufficient condition for the occurrence of entanglement in two two-level systems, simple enough to be of experimental interest. Our results are illustrated in the context of a spin star system analyzing the exact entanglement evolution of the central couple of spins.
Hamiltonians defined by biorthogonal sets
2017
In some recent papers, the studies on biorthogonal Riesz bases has found a renewed motivation because of their connection with pseudo-hermitian Quantum Mechanics, which deals with physical systems described by Hamiltonians which are not self-adjoint but still may have real point spectra. Also, their eigenvectors may form Riesz, not necessarily orthonormal, bases for the Hilbert space in which the model is defined. Those Riesz bases allow a decomposition of the Hamiltonian, as already discussed is some previous papers. However, in many physical models, one has to deal not with o.n. bases or with Riesz bases, but just with biorthogonal sets. Here, we consider the more general concept of $\mat…
Hybrid equilibrium element with high-order stress fields for accurate elastic dynamic analysis
2021
In the present article the two-dimensional hybrid equilibrium element formulation is initially developed, with quadratic, cubic, and quartic stress fields, for static analysis of compressible and quasi-incompressible elastic solids in the variational framework of the minimum complementary energy principle. Thereafter, the high-order hybrid equilibrium formulation is developed for dynamic analysis of elastic solids in the variational framework of the Toupin principle, which is the complementary form of the Hamilton principle. The Newmark time integration scheme is introduced for discretization of the stress fields in the time domain and dynamic analysis of both the compressible solid and qua…
Locally convex quasi $C^*$-normed algebras
2012
Abstract If A 0 [ ‖ ⋅ ‖ 0 ] is a C ∗ -normed algebra and τ a locally convex topology on A 0 making its multiplication separately continuous, then A 0 ˜ [ τ ] (completion of A 0 [ τ ] ) is a locally convex quasi ∗-algebra over A 0 , but it is not necessarily a locally convex quasi ∗-algebra over the C ∗ -algebra A 0 ˜ [ ‖ ⋅ ‖ 0 ] (completion of A 0 [ ‖ ⋅ ‖ 0 ] ). In this article, stimulated by physical examples, we introduce the notion of a locally convex quasi C ∗ -normed algebra, aiming at the investigation of A 0 ˜ [ τ ] ; in particular, we study its structure, ∗-representation theory and functional calculus.
