No full textA Florentine family in crisis: the Strozzi in the fifteenth century.
No full textPhDIn 1434 the Strozzi lineage had held a leading position in
Florentine society and government for at least one hundred and fifty
years, and was one of the largest and wealthiest of the city's
patrician lineages. The records of the catasto of 1427 and of the
scrutiny of 1433 are used to give a profile of the dominant social,
economic and political position of the Strozzi before the advent of
Medicean dominance. Their record of electoral success, and the
political and cultural leadership of influential and respected men
such as Palla di Nofri and Matteo di Simone, with other factors, put
the Strozzi amongst the greatest enemies of the victorious Medicean
regime of late 1434. The effects of political opposition and exile
on the lineage are examined both directly, through records of office-holding,
and indirectly through such indicators as marriage alliances
and household wealth. The two most prominent lines of the Strozzi
were exiled after 1434. Palla di Nofri's life and preoccupations in
his Paduan exile are examined, together with the lives of his sons;
none of these Strozzi ever returned to Florence, pursued as they were
by the enmity of the Medicean regime. The very different careers of
Filippo di Matteo and his brother Lorenzo are also examined: how they
succeeded in founding a lucrative bank in Naples, and in returning to
Florence to 'rebuild' (rifare) the position of the Strozzi lineage
there. The final decades of the century saw the Strozzi in an
economically more secure position, due substantially to the efforts
of Filippo. Except for a very small number of its members admitted
into the regime, most of the lineage is here shown to have remained
excluded from significant political office until after the fall of
the Medici regime in 1494
Fascismi locali: considerazioni preliminari
No full textIntroduzione al fasciscolo sui fascismi locali (numero monografico della rivista ricerche di storia politica 3/2010) nella quale viene ricostruito l'evoluzione della ricerca sul fascismo locale e i nodi storiografici su cui la ricerca si è concentrata negli ultimi anni. Il fascismo locale in questo contesto ha costituito uno dei terreni di indagini più fecondi contribuendo anche al superamento di dibattiti come quello sul consenso/dissenso in favore di un'analisi più articolata della realtà della dittatura. Nell'introduzione viene infine illustrata la struttura del fascicolo

10 Gb/s Line Driver in 65 nm CMOS Technology for Radiation Environments
No full textHigh-energy physics experiments require links able to sustain high-speed data transfer while exposed to radiation phenomena. This paper outlines the design of a radiation-hard line driver for communication up to 10 Gb/s allowing designers to satisfy this need. The driver design relies on radiation hard by design techniques adopted to increase its radiation hardness. In addition, broad banding solutions are employed to sustain high-speed communications. Simulations show the driver's ability to operate up to 10 Gb/s when exposed to 1 Grad total ionization dose. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that the proposed driver is robust to single-event effects
Diurnal patterns of energy intake derived via principal component analysis and their relationship with adiposity measures in adolescents. Results from the National Diet and Nutrition Survey RP (2008–2012)
No full textMounting evidence points towards the existence of an association between energy intake
in the evening and an increased prevalence and risk of being overweight and of obesity. The present
study aimed to describe diurnal eating patterns (DEP) in a nationally representative sample of
UK adolescents and to relate the derived DEP to anthropometrical measures. Data from four-day
food records of adolescents aged 11–18 years participating in the 2008–2012 UK National Diet and
Nutrition Survey Rolling Programme (NDNS RP) was utilised. The DEP were derived using a
principal component analysis on the correlation matrix. Three orthogonal diurnal patterns were
interpretable as (i) a linear contrast (8% of total system variation) between breakfast and an earlier
lunch vs. a later lunch, late dinner, and evening/night snack, renamed “phase shift” DEP; (ii) a linear
contrast (6.0% of system variation) between midmorning snacks, late lunch, and early dinner vs.
breakfast, early and late morning snacks, early lunch, midafternoon snacks, and late dinner, renamed
“early eating and grazing” DEP; (iii) a linear contrast (6.0% of system variation) between late main
meals vs. early main meals and night snacks which was renamed “early main meals and night snacks
vs. late main meals” DEP. After the adjustment for confounders, every 1 unit increase in the “early
main meals and night snacks vs. late main meals”’ DEP score was significantly associated with a
0.29 kg/m2 and 11.6 mm increase in Body Mass Index (BMI) and waist circumference, respectively.
There were no significant associations with the other two main DEPs. In conclusion, adolescents who
tended to eat large early main meals and night snacks rather than slightly later main meals without
night snacks had higher BMI and waist circumference. Further research is required to explore the
determinants of DEP and to explore the impact of the context of eating and socioecological factors in
the development of specific DEP
Design and Characterization of 10 Gb/s and 1 Grad TID-Tolerant Optical Modulator Driver
No full textThis paper presents the design and the experimental characterization of a 10 Gb/s electronic driver for silicon Mach-Zehnder modulators (MZMs). This driver is able to operate in harsh environments characterized by radiation levels up to 1 Grad(SiO2) total ionizing dose (TID). To compensate for the detrimental effects that radiation produces on the target 65 nm bulk silicon technology both device- and circuit-level radiation hardened by design (RHBD) techniques are developed and implemented. Extreme TID levels are faced using long-channel transistors with enclosed layout, avoiding the use of p-MOSFETs, and implementing a differential self-biased cascode architecture with common-mode feedback. Band-widening techniques, e.g., inductive peaking, cross-coupled capacitors, and buffer chaining, have been used to improve the driver's frequency response and reach the targeted data rate. Electrical measurements show 10 Gb/s waveforms with an eye diagram amplitude suitable for MZM driving. Electro-optical measurements performed connecting the electronic driver to a silicon photonic MZM confirm the achievement of a 10 Gb/s system-level operability. The radiation hardness of the driver is verified by exposing the integrated circuit to X-rays. The measurements confirm the ability of the driver to work up to 1 Grad with an eye amplitude reduction of only 10% and a 7% increment in the rise and fall times, validating the effectiveness of the implemented RHBD techniques
