Sulle petizioni dell’Egitto romano contro la violenza dei funzionari
La condotta deviante dei funzionari, rappresentata in petizioni dell’Egitto romano fra I e III secolo trasmessi da papiri, esaminata mediante la terminologia utilizzata pertinente alla sfera personale, alla sfera dei codici etici di comportamento, alla sfera sociale, indica la ricerca della sympaheia dei destinatari. Le modalità di rappresentazione degli abusi da una parte dovevano suscitare la riprovazione sul piano etico, dall’altra gettavano un’ombra sulle conseguenze dannose sul piano sociale tanto per l’individuo, quanto per gli interessi dell’impero

Country asymmetries, endogenous product choice and the timing of trade liberalization
We analyze the e!ects of trade liberalization on "rms' decisions and pro"ts in a vertical product di!erentiation model with countries which have di!erent characteristics. Firms decide product speci"cations at the beginning of the game, in which autarky is followed by trade liberalization (whose date is anticipated). Our analysis suggests that a "rm located in a large (or rich) country is the likely market leader at the trade equilibrium.
This outcome might be reversed if small country "rms have a strong cost advantage,
transport costs are negligible, or if the large country opens its market before the small one.Publicad
Role of patterning in islands nucleation on semiconductor surfaces
Quantum dots (QDs) grown on semiconductors surfaces are actually the main researchers' interest for applications in the forthcoming nanotechnology era. New frontiers in nanodevice technology rely on the precise positioning of the nucleation site and on controlling the shape and size of the dots. In this article we will review some recent studies regarding the control of the nucleation process on semiconductor surfaces. A few approaches to form ordered patterns on surfaces are described: natural patterning induced by surface instabilities (as step bunching or step meandering), in situ substrate patterning by Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM), high resolution patterning by Focused Ion Beam (FIB). Growth of epitaxial layers of semiconductors (Ge/Si(100) and InAs/GaAs(100)) on patterned surfaces has been studied by STM or Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) unveiling the way in which the first atoms start to aggregate and identifying their exact nucleation site. Control of the dot size to match the patterning typical wavelength has been achieved by using surfactants on misoriented substrates. STM images acquired in real time allows one to identify the mechanism of Ge cluster formation on patterned Si(100), and to follow the island transition from pre-pyramid to pyramid. Nucleation of ordered Ge dots on SiO2 substrates has been obtained thanks to FIB tight patterning, achieving island densities of 3.5 × 1010 / cm2. To cite this article: N. Motta et al., C. R.

The transition from 3C SiC(111) to graphene captured by ultra high vacuum scanning tunneling microscopy
In this paper we clarify the transformation mechanism of 3C-SiC into graphene upon thermal decomposition, by a combination of high resolution Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) images and first principle calculations. We studied the transition from 3C-SiC to graphene by high temperature annealing of C-terminated 3C SiC (1 1 1)/Si (1 1 1) samples in Ultra High Vacuum. By using STM we were able to observe very clear atomic resolution images of the transition from SiC (v33)R30࠴o a new intermediate stage SiC View the MathML source (very close to the graphene (2 נ2) reconstruction) after annealing at 1250 î We also obtained images of the transformation of the intermediate structure into a (1 נ1) monolayer graphene, caused by further sublimation of atoms in the subsurface layer. We have interpreted the results by using Density Functional Theory - Local Density Approximation calculations, which give full account of the SiC (v33)R30࠲econstruction, but fail to describe the SiC View the MathML source structure due to its incommensurability with the 3C-SiC (1 1 1) lattice.Full Tex
Ocrepeira planalto Ferreira-Sousa & Motta 2022, new species
Ocrepeira planalto new species Figs. 23 –31 Material examined. Female holotype (DZUB 9280) and male and female paratypes (DZUB 9279) from Brazil, Bahia, Jaborandi, Fazenda Trijunção [-14.643925, -45.802133] collected by P. C. Motta XI.2018; female from Brazil, Goiás, Alto Paraíso (São Jorge), Parque Nacional Chapada dos Veadeiros [-14.038814, -47.622971]. Collected by P. C. Motta, X.2009 (DZUB 5357); male from Brazil, Goiás, Cavalcante, Fazenda Miraflores [-13.811866, -47.432565]. Collected by P. C. Motta, XI.2013 (DZUB 7494); female from Brazil, Goiás, Cristalina, Serra dos Topázios [-16.716671, -47.633332]. Collected by P. C. Motta, XI.2016 (DZUB 8701). Etymology. The species is named after the geographical region of the type locality, named Planalto Central (noun in apposition). Generic placement. It belongs in Ocrepeira by having wide and low carapace. The abdomen has one pair of anterior tubercles and is attached to the pedicel by its anterior half. The epigynum have a broad scape and is heavily sclerotized, with distinct median and lateral plates. In the males, one macroseta is present on the palpal patella. The large conductor is attached to the thin paramedian apophysis and the median apophysis is long and wide, as stated by Levi (1993). Diagnosis. The females differ from most Ocrepeira species by the wide lateral plates of the epigynum touching each other in the posterior view and partially hiding the posterior median plate (Fig. 25). Ocrepeira pinhal Levi has both the lateral plates touching and triangular scape originating from the base of the epigynum (Levi, 1993, fig. 213) as in O. planalto n. sp. The latter is different by having the scape slightly smaller than the base (Fig. 23), and the epigynum is about square-shaped in posterior view due to its very wide lateral plates (Fig. 24). Furthermore, two dark spots are present in the ventral view of the epigynum in all females of O. planalto n. sp. (Fig. 22). The male resembles O. gima Levi by the sickle-shaped terminal apophysis and the size of the median apophysis. It differs by the elliptical shape of the conductor. Both terminal and median apophysis are longer and the latter has a smooth tip (Fig. 27). Description. Female holotype from Fazenda Trijunção, Jaborandi. Total length 6.40.
