Sull’alternanza vocalica o ~ u nelle epigrafi latine di epoca arcaica
No full textThis paper focuses on the graphemic alternation o ~ u (e.g. Cornelio pro Cornelius) occurring in anthroponyms in Latin inscriptions of the Archaic and Early periods. The analysis presented in the paper is based on the data collected in CLaSSES, an epigraphic database specifically designed to elicit information for a systematic analysis of spelling variation in Latin inscriptions. In order to verify whether the distribution of graphemic alternations in the anthroponyms could be associated with sociolinguistic factors, the occurrences of o (alternating with u) have been analyzed with reference to three variables: the status of the person named in the inscription, the provenance place of the epigraph and the dating of the inscription. The results of the analysis show that the reconstruction of the complex sociocultural context in which the inscription has been created, as well as the analysis of specific sociolinguistic factors such as those considered here, may help us explain the distribution of these graphemic alternations
Proprietà e green economy: diritto dominicale, ambiente e risorse naturali
No full textL’autore muove dalla recente legge nazionale 28 dicembre 2015 n. 221 che promuove misure di green economy in materia ambientale nonché misure di contenimento dell’uso eccessivo di risorse naturali per sottolineare che di economia verde e di economia sostenibile o ecosostenibile si è parlato molto in questi anni, soprattutto dopo la Conferenza di Rio de Janeiro del 2012 celebrata a vent’anni da quella su ambiente e sviluppo ivi svoltasi nel 1992. L’attenzione si sofferma sui numerosi recenti provvedimenti legislativi nazionali che hanno recepito le istanze emerse in quelle occasioni, nonché su alcune vicende giurisprudenziali che consentono di cogliere luci ed ombre della legislazione e della sua concreta applicazione da parte delle pubbliche amministrazioni.The author introduces the national law n. 221 (december 2015) that promotes both economic environmental sustainability as well as measures aimed at reducing the excessive exploitation of natural resources, underlining the debate of the recent years around the “green economy”. The topic of sustainable development has been discussed in-depth during the Conference which took place in Rio de Janeiro in 2012, twenty years after the Rio Conference on Environment and Development held in 1992. The article focuses on numerous national legislative provisions inspired by the issues raised during these conferences. It also reflects on a few case laws that reveal the different facets and the limits of the national legislation and of its implementation by the public administrative bodies
Omission of final -s in Latin inscriptions: Time and space
No full textThe paper focuses on the omission of final -s in Latin inscriptions found in the corpus CLaSSES (Corpus for Latin Sociolinguistic Studies on Epigraphic textS, http://classes-latin-linguistics.fileli.unipi.it) from 350 bc till 50 ad. The distribution of final -s has been examined in the endings of the second declension with respect to several variables, such as the dating and the place of provenance of the inscription. The results show that the restoration of the grapheme spread from Rome starting from the mid-third century bc, when the city was the political and economic centre of the conquered territories. Therefore, the Latin of Rome was perceived as prestigious by Roman citizens. The process of -s restoration was completed by the mid-first century bc and appears to be strictly related with the raising o > u in final syllable. Therefore, the omissions of final -s found in inscriptions outside Rome in the second and first century bc can be considered to be residuals of the ancient pronunciation in areas not yet completely reached by the innovation, whereas in Rome they can be considered as forms of a low sociolinguistic level. © The authors 2018.

The laser calibration system of the TOP detector
No full textThe TOP detector at the Belle II Experiment is a particle identification detector, devoted mainly to the separation of charged pions and kaons. The charged particles emit Cherenkov photons when traversing a quartz radiator and these photons are converted inside micro-channel plates photomultipliers. The time of arrival and position of the photoelectrons, detected with excellent spatial and time resolution, are used to reconstruct the angle of the Cherenkov light emitted by the charged particle. The monitoring of the time stability and the measurement of the quantum efficiency of the photomultipliers are performed with a laser calibration system, with a target time resolution better than 50 ps. The system is a combination of a picosecond laser source, long single mode fibers, fiber bundles, and microlenses, which are needed to illuminate all the channels of the photomultipliers. A detailed description of the laser calibration system and its properties is given
Cystic echinococcosis in sheep and goats of Lebanon
No full textCystic echinococcosis (CE), a zoonotic disease caused by the species complex of Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato (s.l.), is endemic in Middle East and the Mediterranean basin, where pastoral activity is widespread. Despite the chronic endemicity of the disease in Lebanon and neighbouring countries, recent data are scant. The objectives of this survey were to evaluate the current epidemiology of CE in Lebanon, investigate the prevalence and determine the infecting genotypes in locally raised sheep and goats. A multidimensional approach combining post-mortem inspection of slaughtered animals and molecular diagnosis of the parasite was conducted to this end. From 2018 to 2020, 62.9% of the sheep and 20.9% of the goats were found positive for CE. The presence of hydatids varied between organs, showing higher prevalence in the liver of sheep vs the lungs of goats, however, a higher fertility rate of hydatid cyst was observed in lungs for both animals. Molecular diagnosis based on partial mitochondrial cox1 gene (795 bp) showed that the majority of isolates were identified as E. granulosus sensu stricto (98.7%) and only one isolate from goat was identified as Echinococcus canadensis (genotype G7; 1.3%). Echinococcus granulosus s.s. population among the sheep and goats was represented by 22 haplotypes having very little genetic differentiation and relatively moderate haplotype diversity. Population demographics explored through neutrality indices suggested expanding population within the intermediate hosts. These results document the high prevalence of CE in the livestock of Lebanon and reveal for the first time the presence of three different genotypes G1, G3 and G7
