Shape coexistence in the neutron-deficient even-even Hg182-188 isotopes studied via Coulomb excitation

2014

Coulomb-excitation experiments to study electromagnetic properties of radioactive even-even Hg isotopes were performed with 2.85  MeV/nucleon mercury beams from REX-ISOLDE. Magnitudes and relative signs of the reduced E2 matrix elements that couple the ground state and low-lying excited states in Hg182-188 were extracted. Information on the deformation of the ground and the first excited 0+ states was deduced using the quadrupole sum rules approach. Results show that the ground state is slightly deformed and of oblate nature, while a larger deformation for the excited 0+ state was noted in Hg182,184. The results are compared to beyond mean field and interacting-boson based models and interp…

Detailed spectroscopy of the neutron-deficient bismuth isotopes ¹⁹³,¹⁹⁵Bi

2015

Two experiments aiming to study the shape coexistence and competing structures in 193Bi and 195Bi isotopes have been performed at the Accelerator laboratory of the University of Jyv askyl a, Finland (JYFL). Many new states have been found, hugely extending the previously known level schemes for both isotopes. The i13=2 bands were extended up to I = 45/2+ in both the 193;195Bi isotopes. In case of 193Bi, the I = 31/2+ member of the i13=2 band was found to de-excite also to a long-lived isomeric state. This link determines the energy of the isomeric state to be 2350(1) keV and suggests a spin and parity of 29/2+. The half-life of the isomeric state was measured to be 85(3) s. A level structur…

Development of Emotional Skills in Adolescents to Prevent Cyberbullying and Improve Subjective Well-Being

2018

Bullying behavior alters the way in which students coexist together in the classroom and negatively affects adolescents’ well-being. Research highlights the importance of emotional skills in promoting positive youth development and optimal social functioning. Therefore, education in these skills is a potential target for interventions aimed at reducing cyberbullying and promoting satisfaction with life during adolescence. This study analyzes the impact of an emotion education program in adolescents to promote classroom coexistence and well-being. The sample comprised 148 students from 7th and 8th grade of secondary school aged between 12 and 15 years (Mage = 12.63, SDage = 0.74; 57% girls).…

Palermo habitat multi-specie. Per un'integrazione fra uomo, natura e animali nella città neocosmopolita

2021

Le città sono per molti versi habitat cosmopoliti perché ospitano una grande varietà umana, animale e vegetale. Così come in natura la biodiversità è più ricca laddove maggiore è l’eterogeneità ambientale, anche nei contesti antropizzati si verifica lo stesso fenomeno (Mainardi, 2016). Parchi, edifici, campanili, insenature offrono una pluralità di habitat e spazi per altre specie che coesistono con l’uomo da sempre e si sovrappongono agli spazi di vita degli esseri umani, dando vita a dinamiche di convivenza (non sempre pacifica) multi-specifiche. L’attuale situazione pandemica ha generato le condizioni per cui la nostra specie ha potuto osservare nuovamente le altre che la circondano, ani…

Pojednana różnorodność – koncepcja pokojowej koegzystencji na przykładzie Górnego Śląska w myśli abp. Alfonsa Nossola

2019

Pluralizm współczesnych społeczeństw w zglobalizowanym świecie nieodłącznie wiąże się z napięciami, konfliktem interesów i rozbieżnymi poglądami dotyczącymi postrzegania świata i praktycznych zachowań ludzi. W kontekście złożoności relacji międzyludzkich oraz różnorodności wyrażającej się na płaszczyźnie politycznej, kulturowej, religijnej, społecznej i światopoglądowej rodzi się pytanie o możliwość pokojowej koegzystencji ludzi i grup społecznych. Odpowiedzią na to pytanie jest idea pojednanej różnorodności, która zrodziła się w konkretnym kontekście historycznym na Górnym Śląsku, a jej wypracowania, rozwinięcia i zastosowania do złożonych problemów społeczno-kulturowo-religijnych dokonał …

Do humans dream of prophetic robots?

2020

Social robotics is a technology that, as its definition varies, encompasses conceptually diverse fields materializing in innovations from simple chatbots to sophisticated androids talking about the peaceful coexistence of humans and robots. The advances in social robotics have led to promising applications in education, work, entertainment, and even religion. Yet a measure of fear and confusion about the capabilities of contemporary and future robots exists, with one of the reasons being the presentation of some contemporary robots as being more advanced than they really are.

Interspecific information on predation risk affects nest site choice in a passerine bird

2018

Abstract Background Breeding site choice constitutes an important part of the species niche. Nest predation affects breeding site choice, and has been suggested to drive niche segregation and local coexistence of species. Interspecific social information use may, in turn, result in copying or rejection of heterospecific niche characteristics and thus affect realized niche overlap between species. We tested experimentally whether a migratory bird, the pied flycatcher Ficedula hypoleuca, collects information about nest predation risk from indirect cues of predators visiting nests of heterospecific birds. Furthermore, we investigated whether the migratory birds can associate such information w…

Growth and Physiological Performance of a Coastal Species Trifolium fragiferum as Affected by a Coexistence with Trifolium repens, NaCl Treatment and…

2021

The aim of the present study was to analyze the growth and physiological performance of two coexisting species, Trifolium fragiferum, and Trifolium repens, under the effect of NaCl and rhizobial symbiosis. Seeds of T. fragiferum and T. repens were collected from populations in the wild, and plants were cultivated in an automated greenhouse, two plants per container. Three basic types of planting were performed: (1) both plants were T. fragiferum (single species), (2) one T. fragiferum and one T. repens (species coexistence), (3) both plants were T. repens (single species). For every basic type, three subtypes were made: (1) non-inoculated, (2) inoculated with rhizobia taken from T. fargifer…

First identification of rotational band structures in Re-166(75)91

2015

Excited states in the odd-odd, highly neutron-deficient nucleus 166Re have been investigated via the 92Mo(78Kr, 3p1n) 166Re reaction. Prompt γ rays were detected by the JUROGAM II γ -ray spectrometer, and the recoiling fusion-evaporation products were separated by the recoil ion transport unit (RITU) gas-filled recoil separator and implanted into the Gamma Recoil Electron Alpha Tagging spectrometer located at the RITU focal plane. The tagging and coincidence techniques were applied to identify the γ -ray transitions in 166Re, revealing two collective, strongly coupled rotational structures, for the first time. The more strongly populated band structure is assigned to the πh11/2[514]9/2− ⊗ ν…
