    A large use of silicon microstrip detectors is foreseen for the intermediate part of the CMS tracker. A specific research and development program has been carried out with the aim of finding design layouts and technological solutions for allowing silicon microstrip detectors to be reliably used on a high radiation level environment. As a result of this work single sided, AC-coupled, polysilicon biased, 300 mu m thick, p(+) on n substrate detectors were chosen. Irradiation tests have been performed on prototypes up to fluence 2 x 10(14) n/cm(2). The detector performances do not significantly change if the detectors are biased well above the depletion voltage. S/N is reduced by less than 20%, still enough to insure a good efficiency and space resolution. Multiguard structures has been developed in order to reach high voltage operation (above 500 V)

    LAUREA MAGISTRALEA partire dai primi anni 80 si sviluppa il concetto di AD (Albergo Diffuso) come un concept, un modello di albergo orizzontale sostenibile, attraverso la semplice idea di utlizzare a fini turistici delle case vuote, appena ristrutturate in seguito al terremoto del Friuli, avvenuto nel ‘76. Come scrive giancarlo Dall’Ara nel suo libro “Manuale dell’Albergo Diffuso”, l’idea iniziale teneva conto dello sviluppo del territorio e delle aspettative dei proprietari delle case, ma trascurava completamente quella degli ospiti. Solo poco alla volta si riuscì a delineare un modello di albergo originale che non offriva solo posti letto, ma la possibilità di vivere lo stile di vita di un borgo, alloggiando in case che si trovavano in mezzo a quelle dei residenti, dando vita ad una gestione alberghiera in un contesto del tutto originale, autentico, quello di un “albergo che non si costruisce”. L’Albergo Diffuso oggi è stato normato da tredici regioni del nostro paese e, a 10 anni dalla prima disposizione, vanta una notorietà straordinaria anche all’estero. Questo grazie al suo imprinting che spiana il terreno per semplicità ed efficacia, riuscendo a lavorare per 12 mesi l’anno, proponendo l’offerta di un luogo abitato non legato alla stagionalità. La nostra tesi dunque si basa sul seguente quesito : Corte sant’Andrea può tornare in vita grazie al modello di Albergo Diffuso? Il borgo storico di Corte sant’Andrea si presta all’applicazione del concept dell’AD in maniera quasi spontanea, naturale. Le condizioni primarie poste alla base si possono ricercare all’interno della sua storia, grazie alla posizione strategica lungo la via Francigena, e per la presenza del “Transitum Padi”, l’attraversamento del fiume Po, che già durante il IX secolo garantivano la presenza di una forma costante di mobilità lenta. Oggi questo cammino è in grado di portare circa 200 pellegrini al mese durante la stagione estiva e, anche se il borgo si è ormai spopolato, la presenza di una comunità viva e presente per quanto in numero limitato, è ciò che fa presagire un futuro nuovo per Corte sant’Andrea, attraverso la possibilità di vivere il territorio, la vita nel borgo e la cultura del luogo, offrendo agli ospiti un legame non solo immaginario, con il territorio e con i residenti. Il modello di Albergo Diffuso è dunque un motore di rilancio per Corte sant’Andrea, ponedo una proposta ospitale alberghiera direttamente integrata nel territorio, nel suo patrimonio e nella sua comunità, sfruttandone le potenzialità e creando uno scambio tra la funzione ospitale e la comunità circostante.Starting in the early 80’s, the idea of the AD (Albergo Diffuso) was developed in Italy as a concept, a model of sustainable horizontal hotel, through the simple idea of using empty houses, newly renovated after the earthquake in Friuli in 1976, for tourism purposes. As Giancarlo Dall’Ara writes in his book “Manuale dell’Albergo Diffuso”, the initial idea took into account the development of the territory and the expectations of the owners of the houses, but completely neglected those of the guests. Only little by little was it possible to outline a model of an original hotel which offered not only beds, but the possibility of living the lifestyle of a village, lodging in houses which were located in the midst of those of the residents, giving life to a hotel management in a completely original, authentic context, that of a “hotel which is not built”. Today, the Albergo Diffuso has been regulated by 13 regions of our country and, more than 10 years after the first provision, boasts an extraordinary notoriety even abroad. This is thanks to its imprinting which paves the way for simplicity and effectiveness, being able to work for 12 months of the year, proposing the offer of an inhabited place not tied to seasonality. Our thesis, therefore, is based on the following question: Can Corte Sant’Andrea come back to life thanks to the model of the Albergo Diffuso? The historic village of Corte Sant’Andrea lends itself to the application of the AD concept in an almost spontaneous, natural way. The primary conditions underlying it can be found within its history, thanks to its strategic position along the Via Francigena, and to the presence of the “Transitum Padi”, the crossing of the river Po, which already guaranteed the presence of a constant form of slow mobility during the 9th century. Today this path is able to bring about 200 pilgrims per month during the summer season and, even if the village is now depopulated, the presence of a community alive and present although in limited numbers, is what bodes well for a new future for Corte Sant’Andrea, through the possibility of experiencing the territory, life in the village and the culture of the place, offering guests a link not only imaginary, with the territory and with the residents. The model of the Albergo Diffuso is an engine for the relaunch of Corte Sant’Andrea, offering a hotel proposal directly integrated into the territory, its heritage and its community, exploiting its potential

    The CMS silicon tracker

    No full text
    This paper describes the Silicon microstrip Tracker of the CMS experiment at LHC. It consists of a barrel part with 5 layers and two endcaps with 10 disks each. About 10000 single-sided equivalent modules have to be built, each one carrying two daisy-chained silicon detectors and their front-end electronics. Back-to-back modules are used to read-out the radial coordinate. The tracker will be operated in an environment kept at a temperature of T = -10 degreesC to minimize the Si sensors radiation damage. Heavily irradiated detectors will be safely operated due to the high-voltage capability of the sensors. Full-size mechanical prototypes have been built to check the system aspects before starting the construction

    Diffusive author(s), cohesive author: Analysis of S/N (1994)

    This study indicates the ways in which various aspects of the author(s) are brought forth in Dumb type’s performance art, the S/N production. Previous research has suggested a non-hierarchical organization of Dumb type and the absence of a “privileged author” in Dumb type’s collaborative work, S/N. However, the results that I have investigated from member’s interviews on the creative process of S/N along with my analysis of the recorded images of S/N, indicate a different aspect of the author(s). First, S/N was created through, so to speak, the collective ideas of the members of Dumb type. Further, S/N has at least nine quotations from previous performances, installations, and printed writings, besides the work-in-progress technique. Explicating one of the “author functions” as given by Michel Foucault, each text has plural subjects of the author. However, it has been revealed from members’ interviews that Teiji Furuhashi had a decision-making role in selecting the members’ ideas within the performance. Since then, S/N has had plural subjects of creation; however, Furuhashi is one of the subjects of creation along with the “privileged author.” S/N has plural authors (diffusive authors) yet at the same time, it has a “privileged author,” Teiji Furuhashi (cohesive author)

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
