Visualisation of quantum evolution in the Stern–Gerlach and Rabi experiments
No full textThe Stern–Gerlach experiment is a seminal experiment in quantum physics, involving the interaction between a particle with spin and an applied magnetic field gradient. A recent article [Wennerström et al., Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2012, 14, 1677–1684] claimed that a full understanding of the Stern–Gerlach experiment can only be attained if transverse spin relaxation is taken into account, generated by fluctuating magnetic fields originating in the magnetic materials which generate the field gradient. This interpretation is contrary to the standard quantum description of the Stern–Gerlach experiment, which requires no dissipative effects. We present simulations of conventional quantum dynamics in the Stern–Gerlach experiment, using extended Wigner functions to describe the propagation of the quantum state in space and time. No relaxation effects are required to reproduce the qualitative experimental behaviour. We also present simulations of quantum dynamics in the Rabi experiment, in which an applied radiofrequency field induces spin transitions in the particle wave
Cost-Benefit Analysis of Climate Change: Stern Revisited
No full textThis paper explores the challenges facing orthodox economic approaches to assessing climate control as if it were appraisal of an investment project. Serious flaws are noted in the work of economists with especial attention to the UK Government report by Stern and colleagues. The opinions expressed in this paper are those of the authors and may not be taken to reflect the views CSIRO or the Australian Government.enhanced greenhouse effect, global CBA, Stern Report

Reading Mario Rigoni Stern at primary school. Historical analysis and new perspectives
No full textopenI libri di lettura possono essere un utile strumento per valutare l’ampiezza e la consistenza dell’offerta formativa erogata nella scuola primaria. Al loro interno, talvolta, risulta carente l’attenzione che viene dedicata a scrittori di assoluto rilievo nel panorama letterario nazionale. È il caso, questo, di Mario Rigoni Stern. Nonostante il notevole successo di critica e pubblico riscosso in vita, l’opera dell’autore veneto non ha mai trovato piena affermazione nell’ambito delle proposte dedicate agli alunni del primo ciclo di istruzione. Se fino alla metà degli anni Novanta, infatti, soltanto il suo romanzo più noto, “Il sergente nella neve”, trovava collocazione nei testi scolastici, oggi il nome dello scrittore è scomparso quasi del tutto da questo scenario editoriale.
Partendo dalla ricostruzione del quadro storico dell’ultimo mezzo secolo, che ha visto un progressivo abbandono dell’opera rigoniana nella scuola primaria, il presente lavoro si prefigge di conseguire un duplice scopo: da una parte, comprendere quale sia il grado di familiarità degli insegnanti di oggi con l’opera di Rigoni Stern; dall’altra, porre enfasi sulle specifiche peculiarità narrative che rendono questo autore adatto all’esperienza letteraria dei bambini. Nello specifico, la ricostruzione del quadro storico avverrà attraverso l’analisi dei più diffusi libri di lettura che, nel corso dei decenni, sono stati adottati nella scuola primaria italiana. La notorietà dello scrittore presso la vasta popolazione degli insegnanti di oggi, invece, sarà valutata ricorrendo alla somministrazione di opportuni questionari. Le caratteristiche che rendono le opere in questione fruibili da parte dei bambini, infine, verranno messe in luce con appropriati rimandi alla variegata produzione di Rigoni Stern.
In conclusione, saranno presentate e discusse ipotetiche strategie di intervento che potrebbero, da un lato, favorire il potenziamento del patrimonio di conoscenze degli insegnanti in un’ottica di formazione continua e, dall’altro, stimolare negli alunni della scuola primaria la curiosità verso testimoni preziosi della nostra cultura.The reading books can be a useful tool for assessing the breadth and consistence of the educational offer provided at primary school. Sometimes, within them, very little attention is paid to authors of absolute prominence in the national literary landscape. That’s exactly what happened to Mario Rigoni Stern. Although he obtains critical and public success when he was alive, his work has never found full affirmation in the context of proposals aimed at primary school pupils. If until the mid-1990s only his best-known novel, “The Sergeant in the Snow”, found a place in the primary school textbooks, currently his name has almost completely disappeared from this specific publishing scenario.
Starting from the reconstruction of the last half century historical framework concerning the gradual abandonment of the Rigoni Stern’s work, this dissertation is aimed to achieve a dual purpose. On one hand, the goal is to gain insight into how much primary school teachers are familiar with Mario Rigoni Stern’s work. On the other hand, the aim is to emphasize those narrative features that make this author suitable for being read by children. More precisely, the reconstruction of historical framework will take place through the analysis of the most popular reading books which, over the decades, have been adopted at Italian primary school. The degree of teachers’ familiarity with our author, instead, will be assessed through the administration of appropriate questionnaires. Lastly, in order to highlight the appropriateness of Rigoni Stern novels for reading at the primary school, a brief compendium of some significant excerpts from his work will be presented.
Finally, the very last part of this thesis will be focused on some hypothetical strategies for improving the strength of teachers continuing education processes. These strategies, if properly designed, can stimulate pupils’ curiosity about valuable personalities of our culture

Likelihood inference for small variance components
No full textIn this paper, we develop likelihood-based methods for making inferences about the components of variance in a general normal mixed linear model. In particular, we use local asymptotic approximations to construct confidence intervals for the components of variance when the components are close to the boundary of the parameter space. In the process, we explore the question of how to profile the restricted likelihood (REML), show that general REML estimates have a lower probability of being on the boundary than maximum likelihood estimates, and show that the likelihood-ratio test based on the local asymptotic approximation has higher power against local alternatives than the likelihood-ratio test based on the usual chi-squared approximation. We explore the finite sample properties of the proposed intervals by means of a small simulation study
