La «Mascalcia» di Giordano Ruffo nei più antichi manoscritti in volgare italiano conservati in Emilia Romagna
No full textÀ la suite de l’article publié dans les Actes du deuxième colloque international sur la médecine vétérinaire antique et médiévale (Catania, 3-5 Octobre 2007), on propose ici un développement de l’étude, afin d’étendre l’enquête aux plus anciens témoins du texte du maréchal-ferrant Jordanus Rufus conservés dans les bibliothèques d’Émilie Romagne. Les lieux de conservation des manuscrits sont : Bologne (Bibliothèque de l’Archiginnasio, 11 ms.; Bibliothèque de l’Université, 1 ms.), Modène (Bibliothèque Estense, 3 ms.), Parme (Bibliothèque Palatina, 1 ms.) et Ravenne (Bibliothèque Classense, 1 ms.). L’étude codicologique et paléographique des 17 témoins manuscrits pris en considération - notamment ceux qui sont datés du milieu du xive siècle - est aussi complétée par des observations philologiques. Le but de la recherche est de vérifier - comme dans le cadre de l’essai précédent - l’attitude des copistes (i.e. examiner les choix de préparation matérielle des manuscrits) et l’accueil du texte de Jordanus Rufus dans la région Émilie Romagne.Following the memoir of the Proceedings of the second international conference on ancient and medieval veterinary medicine (Catania, 3-5 October, 2007), an additional proceed of the research is proposed. The analysis is extended to the most ancient manuscripts of the blacksmith Giordano Ruffo, kept in the libraries of Emilia Romagna. The libraries considered are: Bologna (Archiginnasio Library, 11 mss.; Universitary Library, 1 ms.), Modena (Estense Library, 3 mss.), Parma (Palatina Library, 1 ms.) and Ravenna (Classense Library, 1 ms.). The study of the 17 manuscripts - those in particular dated about the half of the 14th century - is a codicological and palaeographical analysis, which includes also philological observations. The aim is to define what were the practices in use by the copyists (i.e. to examine their choices in the material preparation of the manuscripts), as well as the transmission of the text by Giordano Ruffo in Emilia Romagna

Stock of the University of Amsterdam, whose expedition to the Sultanate of Oman and other parts of the world resulted in the collection of many new taxa of subterranean amphipods from biologically poorly known regions.</p> <p> <i>Remarks</i></p> <p> The peculiar characters that collectively distinguish <i>Stockigidiella</i> from the other bogidiellid genera include the absence of a true mandibular molar, subequality of gnathopods 1–2 and the long, apically bifid setae on the carpus and propodus of pereopods 5 and 6. In all previously described bogidiellids the first pair of gnathopods differs from the second pair, especially in the shape of the propodus, which is typically piriform in the first and subtrapezoidal in the second. Whereas, in contrast the propods of both pairs of gnathopods in S <i>tockigidiella</i> are elongate and suboval. The carpal segment of gnathopod 1 in <i>Stockigidiella</i> is also different. In most other bogidiellids the carpal lobe of gnathopod 1 is typically more prominent, and in many it extends along the posterior margin of the propodus, sometimes nearly reaching the defining angle of the palmar margin. However, in <i>Stockigidiella</i> the posterior lobe of the carpus of gnathopod 1 is a relatively poorly developed prolongation not much extended along the posterior margin of the propodus. In comparison, the posterior lobe of the carpus of gnathopod 2 is rounded, not elongate, and similar to that in most other bogidiellids. We believe that the near equality of the gnathopods is a primitive or plesiomorphic character in bogidiellid amphipods, whereas the presence of the deeply bifid setae on the carpus and propodus of pereopods 5 and 6 appears to be a novel or apomorphic character. The latter character was previously unknown, or at least un­recorded, in other genera of bogidiellids. Among all bogidiellids known to date, only the genus <i>Hebraegidiella</i> Karaman (1988) from the shore of the Dead Sea in Palestine shows a moderately close affinity with <i>Stockigidiella.</i> In this genus, the gnathopods are only weakly differentiated and the mandible lacks a triturative molar. However, several other important characters, including presence of inner rami on the pleopods and normal setation of pereopods 5 and 6, separate <i>Hebraegidiella</i> from <i>Stockigidiella.</i></p>Published as part of <i>Iannilli, Valentina, Holsinger, John R., Ruffo, Sandro & Ronald, 2006, Two new genera and two new species of the subterranean family Bogidiellidae (Crustacea, Amphipoda) from groundwaters in northern Oman, with notes on the geographic distribution of the family, pp. 37-56 in Zootaxa 1208</i> on page 39, DOI: <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/172397">10.5281/zenodo.172397</a>
Driven collective quantum tunneling of ultracold atoms in engineered optical lattices
No full textCollective quantum tunneling of a Bose-Einstein condensate between two parts of an optical lattice separated by an energy barrier is theoretically investigated. We show that by a pulsewise change of the barrier height, it is possible to switch between a tunneling regime and a self-trapped one. This property of the system is explained by effectively reducing the nonlinear dynamics of the system to that of a particle moving in a double square well potential. The analysis is performed for both attractive and repulsive interatomic forces, and emphasizes the experimental relevance of our findings

Omangidiella Iannilli, Holsinger, Ruffo & Ronald, 2006, new genus
No full textOmangidiella new genus Diagnosis A highly aberrant stygomorphic bogidiellid distinguished from almost all other members of the family by the following combination of characters: mandibles with triturative molars; maxilliped with coxal endite partially fused with inner (basal) plate; accessory flagellum of antenna 1 uniarticulate; carpus of gnathopod 2 elongate and subequal in length to propodus; propodus of gnathopod 2 subrectangular and reduced in length, with very short dactylus and palm; large lenticular organs marginally present on bases of gnathopod 2 and pereopods 3–6; pleopods without inner rami; uropod 1 with 3 basofacial spines; telson with both lateral and distal spines; very long, narrow, linguiform oostegites on pereopods 2–5; and coxal gills on pereopods 4–6. Type species Omangidiella parvidactyla new species, by monotypy. Gender is feminine. Remarks The genus Omangidiella is clearly distinguished from all other genera of bogidiellids by the remarkably different structure of gnathopod 2 and development of prominent oostegites, which suggest existence of a strong marsupium to hold and protect developing eggs. It should be noted that female bogidiellids have never been observed to brood eggs, although a number of them possess very small oostegites, which probably allow eggs to be given out freely in the environment. The exceptional development of oostegites in Omangidiella parvidactyla described below suggests that it has a different behavior than most other bogidiellids. However, this must be confirmed by future studies. The oostegites development could also be linked to tegumental respiration, because the gills are very small. The lenticular organs, which are very wide in Omangidiella, are in a marginal position on gnathopod 2 and pereopods 3–6, which is an unusual position for these organs in the bogidiellids. There is no existing hypothesis about the exact function of these “organs,” except that they could play a role in tegumental respiration. The fact that they are not always present in the bogidiellids, argues against a phylogenetic significance, and instead suggests only a functional importance. In support of this suggestion is the presence of analogous structures in several other subterranean amphipod families, such as the ingolfiellids and paracrangonyctids. Perhaps of greater phylogenetic importance is the highly unusual presence of a third coxal lobe on the maxilliped, which is in addition to the basal and ischial endites and appears to be similar to that observed in Nubigidiella and discussed in a recent paper by Iannilli et al. (2005). This unusual structure is present in addition to these two endites, which are typically present in amphipods and often called, respectively, inner and outer plates or lobes. In Omangidiella the coxal lobe is partially fused with the basal lobe. A third coxal lobe or endite is also present in other African bogidiellids besides Nubigidiella, including Maghrebidiella and Afridiella. In Maghrebidiella the coxal endite is totally fused with the basal endite, whereas in Afridiella, a recent reexamination revealed a slender structure, largely fused with the basal endite. This unique structure appears to characterize a group of genera from Africa and Arabia. The presence of the coxal endite is clear in Nubigidiella, partially fused with the basal endite in Omangidiella, largely fused in Afridiella and completely fused in Maghrebidiella. The degree of fusion of the coxal endite appears to follow a graduated trend or pattern, leading us to regard the presence of this structure in the AfroArabian group as a plesiomorphic character state, with the more fused condition representing increasing reduction phases that tend toward an apomorphic state. Whether or not this actually represents a trend from primitive to advanced for this character is questionable for the moment and will remain unclear until the maxillipeds of specimens in the other bogidiellid genera are carefully reexamined.Published as part of Iannilli, Valentina, Holsinger, John R., Ruffo, Sandro & Ronald, 2006, Two new genera and two new species of the subterranean family Bogidiellidae (Crustacea, Amphipoda) from groundwaters in northern Oman, with notes on the geographic distribution of the family, pp. 37-56 in Zootaxa 1208 on pages 43-45, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.17239
