Tradução de uma disputa : Christophe versus Pétion em La tragédie du roi Christophe, de Aimé Césaire
No full textEsta contribuição propõe a tradução comentada da primeira cena da peça de teatro La Tragédie du roi Christophe (A tragédia do rei Christophe), de Aimé Césaire. O texto foi publicado pelo autor martinicano em 1963 e encenado a partir de 1964. A história aborda o embate histórico entre os dois líderes revolucionários haitianos, Alexandre Pétion (1770-1818) e Henry Christophe (1767-1820), após o estabelecimento da independência do Haiti, em 1804. O ex-escravizado Henry Christophe I, autoproclamado rei do Haiti em 1811, protagoniza, na peça, os impasses políticos decorrentes do processo de descolonização para a constituição de um novo estado haitiano livre e democrático. Optamos por traduzir a cena que anuncia e ilustra, na abertura do primeiro Ato, o caráter trágico que permeia o desenrolar dos eventos.This contribution proposes the commented translation of the first scene of the play La Tragédie du roi Christophe (The tragedy of King Christophe), by Aimé Césaire. The text was published by the Martinican author in 1963 and staged from 1964 onwards. The story addresses the historical clash between the two Haitian revolutionary leaders, Alexandre Pétion (1770-1818) and Henry Christophe (1767-1820), after the establishment of Haitian independence in 1804. The ex-enslaved Henry Christophe I, self-proclaimed King of Haiti in 1811, stars, in the play, political impasses resulting from the decolonization process, for the constitution of a new free and democratic Haitian state. We chose to translate the scene that announces and illustrates, in the opening of the first Act, the tragic character that permeates the unfolding of events

Optimizacija potrage za novim Higgsovim bozonima na visokim masama u kanala raspada na četiri leptona s CMS eksperimentom
No full textResearch of some possible optimisations of the high-mass Higgs boson decaying to 4 leptons analysis is presented. The full Run 2 data (2015-2018) collected by the CMS experiment in the Large Hadron Collider is used. The study is carried out as part of the effort to make the search for new scalars (heavy Higgs bosons) more efficient. There are three parts of the analysis conducted. The first is comparing two data samples, before and after an updated calibration of the detector. Next, a study is performed to try to determine whether it is possible to loosen some restrictions in the analysis with a goal of improving the results, while also controlling the "explosion" of noise events. Finally, categorisation of the production mode of the events (how the Higgs boson is created) is explored, taking into consideration the values of the discriminating variables. For each topic, the methods of work are explained and results shown.U ovom radu prezentiraju se rezultati istraživanja mogućih poboljšanja u analizi raspada Higgsovog bozona visoke mase na 4 leptona. Korišteni su podaci CMS eksperimenta iz Velikog hadronskog sudarača u CERN-u, skupljeni od 2015. do 2018. godine, tzv. Run 2. Izvodi se u studija u sklopu povećanja efikasnosti u potrazi za novim skalarima, tj. Higgsovim bozonima visokih masa. Provedena su tri tipa analize. Za početak, prikazana je usporedba dvaju uzoraka podataka. Jedan od njih nastao je prije, a drugi nakon kalibracije detektora u 2019. godini. Usporedba je ranije provedena za Higgsov bozon iz Standardnog Modela, onaj mase 125 GeV , a ovo je prva provjera u analizi visoke mase. Nadalje, proučava se potencijalno poboljšanje analize popuštanjem nekih zahtjeva u njoj. Uspoređuje se eventualni benefit relaksacije granične vrijednosti sa količinom dodatnih pozadinskih smetnji koje mogu otežati analizu. Konačno, istražuju se produkcijski mehanizmi Higgsovog bozona i kategorizacija samih produkcijskih događaja u analizi visoke mase promatrajući ponašanje vrijednosti određenih diskriminacijskih varijabli. Za svaku je temu objašnjena metoda i pokazani rezultati istraživanja
Christophe Defeuilley, L’Entrepreneur et le Prince. La création du service public de l’eau
No full textBehind Christophe Defeuilley’s poetic title lies a comparative historical analysis of the establishment of public drinking water services in London, New York, and Paris, the three most populous cities at the dawn of the 20th century. The author combines the lens of economics and a long-term perspective (from the 16th to the beginning of the 20th century) focused largely on private and public actors, to trace how water distribution systems evolved and crystalized into the form they still have ..
Novel Dialogue 5.3 It’s on The Illabus: A Discussion with Jean-Christophe Cloutier and John Jennings (SW)
No full textJohn Jennings—Hugo Award winner, New York Times bestselling author, curator, scholar, and Artist—is keenly aware that in adapting novels for the graphic format, his decisions turn what has only been imagined into facts drawn on the page. In this conversation with critic, translator, and teacher of a creative course on the art of making comics, Jean-Christophe Cloutier, Jennings explores how he makes those decisions that range from the design of endpapers to selecting a character’s skin tone with the ultimate aim of championing Black culture and Black comics. Given that Jennings has just entered the Marvel Universe with the debut of Silver Surfer: Ghost Light, the timing is right to reflect on the pressures and pleasures of adapting beloved stories for a contemporary audience. Jennings is both teacher and student of comics’ powerful lessons, and lucky for listeners, his course comes with an illustrated syllabus, aka illabus. In the podcast’s first ever episode about graphic novels, Jennings and Cloutier talk comic book history, the power of collaboration, and the importance of long showers
Aficionados et opposants à la tauromachie. Les formes plurielles de la civilisation
No full textAficionados and Opponents to the Tauromachy. The Plural Forms of Civilization
Christophe Traïni
The opposition to the Spanish tauromachy constitutes an emblematic case of involvement aiming to build up the animal cause. Starting from Norbert Elias theory concerning the civilisation processes, the author attempts to point out the emotional economies which underlie both aficionados' passion and the denunciations of the opponents to the corrida. The author refers here to the comparative vocation of Elias theory to make intelligible the incomprehension which may resuit from the different ways of investing the civilisation values. This perspective aliows explicating why and how the bull takes on different virtues and statutes.Aficionados et opposants à la tauromachie. Les formes plurielles de la civilisation
Christophe Traïni
L'opposition à la tauromachie espagnole constitue incontestablement un cas emblématique des engagements visant à édifier la cause animale. A partir de la théorie de Norbert Elias relative aux processus de civilisation, l'auteur s'efforce de mettre en exergue les économies émotionnelles qui sous-tendent aussi bien la passion des aficionados que les dénonciations virulentes des opposants à la corrida. La vocation comparative que le sociologue allemand a toujours attribuée à sa théorie est rappelée ici avec force afin de rendre intelligible les incompréhensions qui peuvent résulter de différentes modalités d'investissement des valeurs de la civilisation. Cette perspective permet, plus particulièrement, d'expliciter pourquoi et comment le taureau se voit attribué des vertus et un statut des plus divergents.Traïni Christophe.

Taxation of financial assets in developing countries
No full textIn developing countries, most financial assets in formal markets are deposits at financial institutions. This potentially important tax base could be taxed at a low administrative cost. When revenues of financial taxes are significant, implicit taxes dwarf explicit taxes. The author focuses on the implicit taxation of financial assets through seigniorage, reserve requirements, lending targets, and interest ceilings combined with inflation. The last instrument has often been overlooked, but it has generated more than a third of implicit revenues in some cases by lowering the cost of government borrowing. Tax revenues are difficult to measure because of regulations that prevent the use of market prices for computation and distort the meaning of some definitions. For some countries, the standard method of seigniorage grossly underestimates the revenue from financial taxation. The author discusses various sources of distortion but ignores potential impacts on the level of saving and the growth rate. Although taxes on financial assets have a low administrative cost, the excess burden that stems from the misallocation of resources is probably a much higher fraction of revenues than that of other taxes.Economic Theory&Research,Environmental Economics&Policies,Banks&Banking Reform,Public Sector Economics&Finance,Municipal Financial Management
Recherche de résonances de haute masse avec les canaux multi-leptons et étude des performances temporelles du Calorimètre à Haute Granularité de CMS
No full textCette thèse prend place à un moment charnière où l’ensemble des données collectées par l’expérience CMS lors du Run-2 du LHC sont disponibles et où la nouvelle génération de détecteurs visant à sonder encore plus loin nos connaissances de la physique sont en train d’être élaborés.Dans cet esprit, cette thèse s’articule autour de deux problématiques, dont la première porte sur l’étude des performances d’un prototype du High Granular Calorimeter (HGCAL) de CMS. Celui-ci s’inscrit dans une vaste campagne d’améliorations à l’horizon de la future phase de vie du LHC, aussi appelé High-Luminosity LHC et qui devrait être mis en place en 2029. Son objectif est de générer dix fois plus de données que pendant l’ensemble de la première phase du LHC, et ceci dans le but de mesurer encore plus précisément les prédictions du Modèle Standard (MS) de la physique des particules, ainsi que d’étudier des phénomènes rares qui ne sont pas observables à l’heure actuelle. L’augmentation de la luminosité sera aussi associée à une importante hausse du nombre d’événements simultanés et de la dose de radiation que vont recevoir les détecteurs. Les détecteurs actuellement en place ne sont pas prévus pour fonctionner dans un tel environnement, et c’est pourquoi les calorimètres aux extrémités de CMS seront remplacer par HGCAL. Celui-ci sera le tout premier calorimètre imageur à base de capteurs en silicium à être utilisé. Pour déterminer sa faisabilité, un premier prototype a été construit et utilisé lors de tests sous faisceaux utilisant des positons et des pions ayant une énergie allant de 20 à 300 GeV. Dans cette thèse, l’accent sera mis sur l’étude des performances temporelles du prototype, en passant par les différentes étapes de la calibration et jusqu’au calcul de la résolution temporelle pour une unique cellule de HGCAL et pour l’ensemble d’une gerbe électromagnétique ou hadronique. Les résultats obtenus lors de cette thèse sont comparés à ceux issus de simulations Monte Carlo et le très bon accord entre les deux confirme la viabilité du concept de HGCAL.La seconde problématique sur laquelle se penche cette thèse est la recherche de résonances à haute masse en utilisant le canal de désintégration, les canaux multi-leptoniques. Une telle recherche s’explique par le fait que le MS ne permet pas de décrire certains phénomènes, mais d’autres théories leur proposent une explication avec notamment l’ajout de nouveaux bosons. L’objectif d’une telle analyse est de regarder s’il existe une résonance ayant une masse comprise entre 200 GeV et 3 TeV pouvant correspondre à un nouveau type de boson scalaire. Pour cela, les 138 fbdollar^{-1}dollar de données collectées par l’expérience CMS lors du Run-2 sont utilisées dans le canal de désintégration dollarHightarrow ZZightarrow 4ldollar. L’intérêt d’utiliser ce canal en particulier est qu’il correspond à l’un des modes de production dominant à haute masse et qu’il possède un état final pleinement reconstruit avec une excellente résolution et un bon rapport signal sur bruit. Cette thèse va tout d’abord présenter comment les différents objets constituants les événements d’intérêts sont reconstruits et sélectionnés. Ensuite, la construction d’un modèle de signal est faite de telle sorte que n’importe laquelle des combinaisons de paramètres de la résonance puissent être comparé aux données. Pour cela, cette modélisation comprend une partie décrivant le signal théorique et une autre qui prend en considération tous les effets du détecteur. Afin de savoir si les données expérimentales peuvent être décrites par le signal construit dans cette thèse, un test statistique est réalisé en maximisant une fonction de vraisemblance prenant en compte le signal, ainsi que les bruits de fond et les interférences entre les deux. En guise de résultats, les limites sur la section efficace du signal attendu, ont été calculées et permettent d’exclure ou non une région de masse dans laquelle peut se trouver une résonance de haute masse.This thesis takes place at a critical moment when all the data collected by the CMS experiment during the LHC Run-2 are available and when the new generation of detectors aiming to probe even further our knowledge of physics are being developed.In this context, this thesis is structured around two problematics, the first one concerns the study of the performance of a prototype of the CMS High Granular Calorimeter (HGCAL). It is part of a vast campaign of upgrades for the future life phase of the LHC, also known as the High-Luminosity LHC, which should be in service by 2029. It aims to generate ten times more data than during the entire first phase of the LHC, in order to measure even more accurately the predictions of the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics, as well as to study rare phenomena that are not observable currently. The higher luminosity will also be associated with a significant increase in the number of simultaneous events and the radiation dose that the detectors will receive. The current detectors are not designed to operate in such an environment, so the endcap calorimeters of CMS will be replaced by HGCAL. It will be the first imaging calorimeter based on silicon sensors to be used. To determine its feasibility, a first prototype has been built and used in beam tests using positrons and pions with energies ranging from 20 to 300 GeV. In this thesis, the focus will be on the study of the temporal performance of the prototype, through the various stages of calibration and up to the calculation of the temporal resolution for a single HGCAL cell and for the whole electromagnetic or hadronic showers. The results obtained in this thesis are compared with those obtained from Monte Carlo simulations and the very good agreement between both confirms the viability of the HGCAL concept.The second problematic addressed in this thesis is about the search for high mass resonances using the multi-leptonic decay channel. Such a search is explained by the fact that the SM does not describe some phenomena, but other theories propose an explanation with the addition of new bosons. The aim of such an analysis is to see if there is a resonance with a mass between 200 GeV and 3 TeV that could correspond to a new type of scalar boson. For this purpose, the 138 fbdollar^{-1}dollar of data collected by the CMS experiment during Run-2 are used in the dollarHightarrow ZZightarrow 4ldollar decay channel. The interest in using this particular channel is that it corresponds to one of the dominant high-mass production modes and has a fully reconstructed final state with excellent resolution and good signal-to-noise ratio. Firstly, this thesis presents how the different objects constituting the events of interest are reconstructed and selected. Secondly, the construction of a signal model is done in such a way that any combination of the resonance parameters can be compared to the data. For this purpose, this modelling consists of a part describing the theoretical signal and another part that takes into account all the effects of the detector. In order to find out whether the experimental data can be described by the signal constructed in this thesis, a statistical test is performed by maximizing a likelihood function taking into account the signal, as well as the background and interference between both. As a result, limits on the expected signal cross-section are calculated and allow excluding or not a region of mass in which a high mass resonance can be found
