Light Dark Matter in the NO{}A Near Detector: First Look at the New Data
No full textThe neutrino oscillations experiment NO{}A is the flagship of Fermi National Laboratory. The neutrino source NuMI is delivering record numbers of protons-on-target surpassing the most stringent dark matter production upper limits of current models in the under-10 GeV mass range. We take advantage of the sophisticated particle identification algorithms of the experiment to interrogate the data from the 300-ton, off-axis, low-Z, Near Detector of NOvA during the first physics runs. We search for signatures of sub-GeV or Light Dark Matter (LDM), Axion-like-particles, and Heavy or Sterile Neutrinos that may scatter or decay in the volume of the detector
Peak power reduction algorithms in asymmetric digital subscriber line modems
No full textThesis (M.Eng.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2000.Includes bibliographical references (leaves 94-96).This electronic version was submitted by the student author. The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.This thesis investigates peak-to-average ratio (PAR) reduction techniques for multicarrier modulation systems, such as discrete multitone (DMT) modems and orthogonal frequency-division multiplexed (OFDM) terrestrial broadcast transmitters. Through simulation and test implementation on a state-of-the-art programmable ADSL development platform, this thesis pursues a suitable solution for minimizing PAR given the resources of a programmable platform. This solution is integrated as a prototype implementation into a fully-functional ADSL modem and optimized for maximum PAR reduction performance within modem complexity constraints.by Athanasios Dimitri Dousis.M.Eng
Homophobic Statements, a Bishop, and the Limits of Freedom of Expression. An In-Depth Commentary on ECtHR 31.08.2023, Amvrosios-Athanasios Lenis v. Greece, no. 47833/20

ABSTRACT: The decision of the ECtHR of 31.08.2023, Amvrosios-Athanasios Lenis v. Greece (no. 47833/20), is a further step toward an increasingly dense jurisprudence on “hate speech” and the limits of freedom of expression. The public proclamation of religious doctrines that are in conflict with the values of the contracting States enshrined in the ECHR is protected to a certain extent by the fundamental right of freedom of religion and belief. However, the qualification of a statement as religious does not justify “hate speech.” The AUTHOR shows the tension between freedom of religion, freedom of expression, and protection against discrimination, and analyzes the decision against the backdrop of Article 17 of the ECHR (prohibition of abuse of rights).

Reflections on the Physics and Astronomy Student Reading Society (PhASRS) at San Jose State University
No full textThe COVID-19 pandemic imposed profound changes on the way we think about
undergraduate physics education. Online courses became mainstream. Exam formats
were reimagined. Digital whiteboards replaced face-to-face discussions.
Laboratory classes were outfitted with home-delivered supply kits. And all of
us developed a more intimate knowledge of Greek letters and symbols (delta,
omicron, etc.) than we might have comfortably liked to admit. Having weathered
these transformations from the point of view of both an undergraduate student
(S.L.J.) and classroom instructors (A.H. and C.L.S.), we have found that among
the most challenging aspects of the in-person learning experience to replicate
in an online environment have been the relational ones. To highlight some of
the ways in which these issues can be mitigated, we report here on the
activities of the San Jose State University (SJSU) Physics and Astronomy
Student Reading Society (PhASRS), which was an online reading group at SJSU
founded by ourselves and others running from the summer of 2020 until the end
of the fall 2020 semester. Elements of the reading group's structure and
guiding principles are described, as well as student and faculty reflections on
what worked well and what did not. The manuscript underlines the power of
astronomy- and physics-themed journal clubs as vehicles for learning and more
generally emphasizes the importance of community-building initiatives in the
discipline. Our hope is that this summary of activities will inspire faculty
members and students at colleges and perhaps high schools to imagine new
possibilities for developing communities of people in science that might not
otherwise be able to exist.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figure
La tomba III di Haghios Athanasios e il valore semantico dell'incarnato
No full textThe tomb III at Haghios Athanasios stands out among the Macedonian tombs for the exceptional painted decoration of the temple-like façade. Excavated in the '90s by M. Tsimbidou-Avloniti it has been published by the scholar in full detail and the iconographic program of the monument has been the object of many publications. This article re-examines the different ways of reproducing the skin color (το ανδρείκελον) in the figures of the miniature frieze and in the megalographic figures beside the door. The realistic rendering of the megalographic figures of armed men in Macedonian attire, showing their sorrow for the lost of an etairos, is contrasting with the pale color of the participants to the symposion in the frieze above the door, a scene whose illusionistic overtone has been yet perceived by the critics. This symposion is articulated in three scenes and it can be interpeted as a necrodeipnon, but in the same time as a celebration of the Macedonian banquet style, centered on the royal court. The author suggests that the first figure on the right of the frieze, related to the group of armed men looking towards the banqueters feasting in the center of the frieze, can be read as the dead himself, for the particular rendering of his ανδρείκελον, showing the typical ochròtes or necròdes face color, according to the contemporary medical lexicon. The pathetic stance assumed by the same figure, the sole in the group which is not bearing arms, seems to confirm his role in the context of the scene
