Faithful representations of left C*-modules

2010

The existence of a faithful modular representation of a left module $$ \mathfrak{X} $$ over a C*-algebra $$ \mathfrak{A}_\# $$ possessing sufficiently many traces is proved.

Modular quintics inℙ4

2003

We will examine the arithmetic of some of the members of a pencil of symmetric quintics in projective 4-space. We will give evidence for the modularity of some of the exceptional members (even the non-rigid ones) and give a proof in one rigid case. (© 2003 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

Waveguiding properties of a photonic crystal fiber with a solid core surrounded by four large air holes

2009

The polarization-dependent guiding properties of a hexagonal-lattice photonic crystal fiber with a solid-core surrounded by four large air holes are investigated. The appearance of a polarization dependent cutoff frequency, together with several parameters as the birefringence, the modal effective area, the group velocity dispersion and the polarization dependent loss are analyzed. A collection of fibers with different structural parameters were fabricated and characterized. An effective anti-guide structure from at least 450 nm to 1750 nm, a polarizing fiber with a polarization dependent loss of 16 dB/m at 1550 nm, and an endlessly singlemode polarization-maintaining fiber with group biref…

A Refractive Index Sensor Based on the Resonant Coupling to Cladding Modes in a Fiber Loop

2013

We report an easy-to-build, compact, and low-cost optical fiber refractive index sensor. It consists of a single fiber loop whose transmission spectra exhibit a series of notches produced by the resonant coupling between the fundamental mode and the cladding modes in a uniformly bent fiber. The wavelength of the notches, distributed in a wavelength span from 1,400 to 1,700 nm, can be tuned by adjusting the diameter of the fiber loop and are sensitive to refractive index changes of the external medium. Sensitivities of 170 and 800 nm per refractive index unit for water solutions and for the refractive index interval 1.40-1.442, respectively, are demonstrated. We estimate a long range resolut…

Multioctave midinfrared supercontinuum generation in suspended-core chalcogenide fibers

2014

An As2S3 fiber-based supercontinuum source that covers 3500 nm, extending from near visible to the midinfrared, is successfully reported by using a 200-fs-pulsed pump with nJ-level energy at 2.5 μm. The main features of our fiber-based source are two-fold. On the one hand, a low-loss As2S3 microstructured optical fiber has been fabricated, with typical attenuation below 2 dB/m in the 1-4 μm wavelength range. On the other hand, a 20-mm-long microstructured fiber sample is sufficient to enable a spectral broadening, spreading from 0.6 to 4.1 μm in a 40 dB dynamic range.

Tesi portanti di un'antropologia di segno sponsale

2015

Il saggio presenta e argomenta alcune affermazioni che consentano di intendere l'amore sponsale come ambito di crescita educativa delle persone: itinerario nel quale sia possibile pervenire ad una conoscenza sempre più adeguata del nome proprio e del desiderio d'essere e di senso costitutivo di ogni soggetto. Assumono rilievo le categorie di relazionalità riconoscente e quella del dono incondizionato di sé all'altro.

Synthesis and biological activities of a new class of heat shock protein 90 inhibitors, designed by energy-based pharmacophore virtual screening

2013

The design through energy-based pharmacophore virtual screening has led to aminocyanopyridine derivatives as efficacious new inhibitors of Hsp90. The synthesized compounds showed a good affinity for the Hsp90 ATP binding site in the competitive binding assay. Moreover, they showed an excellent antiproliferative activity against a large number of human tumor cell lines. Further biological studies on the derivative with the higher EC50 confirmed its specific influence on the cellular pathways involving Hsp90.

A procedure to calculate the I–V characteristics of thin-film photovoltaic modules using an explicit rational form

2015

Abstract Accurate models of the electrical behaviour of photovoltaic modules are effective tools for system design. One or two diode equivalent circuits have been widely used even though some mathematical difficulties were found dealing with implicit equations. In this paper, a new model based on a simple rational function, which does not contain any implicit exponential form, is presented. The model was conceived in order to be used with thin-film photovoltaic modules, whose current–voltage curves are characterised by very smooth shapes. The parameters of the model are evaluated by means of the derivatives of the issued characteristics in the short circuit and open circuit points at standa…
