Usando as Regras de Soma da QCD, testamos se a nova estrutura estreita, X(4350) recentemente observada pela Colaboração Belle, pode ser descrita como um estado molecular D8D80 exótico JPC = 1+. Consideramos as contribuições dos condensados de dimensão oito, trabalhamos com os termos dominantes em 8 mantendo os termos lineares na massa do quark estranho m8. A massa obtida é igual a mD8D80 = (5.05±0.19) GeV. Consideramos também uma corrente molecular 1+, DD0 e obtemos mDD0 = (4.92 ± 0.08) GeV. Concluímos que não é possível descrever a estrutura X(4350) como um estado molecular 1+ D8D80.<br>Using the QCD sum rules we test if the new narrow structure, the X(4350) recently observed by the Belle Collaboration, can be described as a JPC = 1+ exotic D8D80 molecular state. We consider the contributions of condensates up to dimension eight, we work at leading order in s and we keep terms which are linear in the strange quark mass ms. The mass obtained for such state is mD8D80 =(5.05 ± 0.19) GeV. We also consider a molecular 1+, DD0 current and we obtain mDD0 = (4.92 ± 0.08) GeV. We conclude that it is not possible to describe the X(4350) structure as a 1+ D8D80 molecular state.

Full textAbstract:
The ATLAS detector is one of the two largest experiments installed at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research. During the first run, the ATLAS detector recorded data at centre of mass energies of 7 TeV and 8 TeV, enabling many precision measurements and new physics searches. One important task in ATLAS is measuring the primary vertex, the interaction point of the hardest proton-proton collision in an event. In this thesis, a study of the primary vertex reconstruction performance in data and simulated events using $t\bar{t}$ and ${Z}$ events is presented. Within the statistics available, the performance in data and simulated events is found to be compatible. Motivated by the limitations of the Standard Model of particle physics, searches for supersymmetric particles are performed with the ATLAS experiment. No signal has been observed so far, and the results are used to set exclusion limits on the masses of the supersymmetric particles. As the exclusion limits are derived from analyses which each target only a single decay mode of a supersymmetric particle, the analyses might have lower sensitivity to more complex decay scenarios. In this thesis the sensitivity of one of the ATLAS searches for direct top squark pair production to models with more complex decay modes is investigated. The study concludes that the sensitivity to models where the top squark can decay via heavier charginos and neutralinos is lower than the sensitivity to models where only decays to the lightest chargino or neutralino are present.

Supersymmetric extensions to the Standard Model (SM) have many interesting experimental consequences which can provide important hints to the physics beyond the SM. In this thesis, we first study the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon and show that a significant constraint on the parameter space can be obtained from its current experimental value. In the next topic, we study the CP violations in B -> phi K decays and show that the SM and the minimal supergravity model (mSUGRA) cannot account for the current experimental observation. We then show that all the data can be accommodated for a wide range of parameters in models with non-universal soft breaking left-right A terms. In our last topic, which is based on a Horava-Witten inspired model proposed by R. Arnowitt and B. Dutta, we extend their analysis to the full fermion sector of the SM and propose a new mechanism different from the usual see saw mechanism to generate small neutrino masses which are in good agreement with the current neutrino oscillation data.

Full textAbstract:
After a brief introduction to 21st century fundamental physics suitable for the layman with a reasonable level of mathematical competence, I introduce the concept of unnaturalness in Standard Model electroweak symmetry breaking and Supersymmetry (Susy) as a potential solution. The optimally natural situation in Susy in light of the 2012 discovery of a Higgs boson is derived, namely that of almost maximal mixing, with the scalar top partners almost as light as can be. The discovery is also interpreted numerically in terms of the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, with greater emphasis placed on the visibility of the Higgs boson at the observed mass, i.e. on signal strengths. I introduce simple models of gauge-mediated Susy breaking (GMSB), and how their generalisation leads to a richer parameter space. I then investigate the role played by the mediation scale of GMSB: this is found to be as a control of the extent to which Yukawa couplings de-tune flavour-blind relations set by gauge couplings. Finally, issues relating to the discovery or exclusion of Susy at colliders are discussed. Bounds are derived for the masses of new particles from Large Hadron Collider searches for excesses of jets and missing energy without leptons, and compared to constraints arising from Higgs boson searches, for models of GMSB and the Constrained Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. I present a novel search strategy for new physics signatures with two neutral, stable particles, when such particles are produced by boosted decays. (Susy examples include models with light gravitinos, pseudo-goldstinos, singlinos or new photinos.) The method is shown to produce sharp mass peaks that enhance the visibility of the signal.

Questa tesi si propone di esplorare la percezione della mostruosità dal Medioevo alla contemporaneità. La prima parte affronta l'idea di mostruosità come strettamente intrecciata a quella di deformazione corporale ed esplora brevemente come corpi "mostruosi" siano stati interpretati dal XIII secolo ca all'età Vittoriana. In particolare, si discute di come la mostruosità sia passata da una dimensione esclusivamente bestiale a quella umana, attraverso figure come streghe, demoni e, soprattutto dal XVI secolo in poi, coloro che presentavano deformità fisiche. Nella seconda parte, la tesi analizza il passaggio dalla percezione corporale del mostruoso al suo trasferimento alla dimensione psicologica, passando così dal mostro "fuori" al mostro "dentro". Affinché ciò sia realizzabile, il primo passo è prendere in considerazione l'avvento della psicoanalisi per poi analizzare brevemente alcune teorie portate avanti da Freud, Lacan e Foucault. Infine, "The Wasp Factory" di Ian Banks viene analizzato alla luce della nuova concezione di mostruosità, illustrando come i temi considerati nella prima e nella seconda parte di questo lavoro possano essere riassunti all'interno di un romanzo contemporaneo.

Full textAbstract:
We study various aspects of type IIB supergravity backgrounds related to those of Klebanov-Strassler and Chamseddine-Volkov/Maldacena-Nunez, in the context of gauge-gravity duality. We first examine the structure which can be found in the family of supersymmetric solutions, and in particular the effect of adding flavour. We then turn to the problem of finding non-supersymmetric generalisations of the well-understood supersynnnetric solutions. Using a combination of analytic and numerical techniques we find a two-dimensional space of such solutions, corresponding to the baryonic branch of Klebanov-Strassler deformed by a SUSY-breaking irrelevant operator. We explore the parameter space in some detail, and find several interesting special cases and limits, including one in which supersymmetry is completely broken and unusual periodic behavior is present in the warp factors. Finally, we look in detail at some of the methods which can be used to probe the field theory corresponding to these kinds of backgrounds.

Full textAbstract:
Maapallon pohjoisella pallonpuoliskolla sijaitsevat boreaaliset suot ovat sitoneet ja varastoineet ilmakehän hiilidioksidia (CO₂) jo niiden syntyajoista lähtien ja näin viilentäneet ilmastoamme. Hiilenkierto koostuu kasvien fotosynteesistä ja hiilidioksidin palautumisesta ilmakehään kasviainesta hajottavien mikro-organismien toiminnan ja kasvien hengityksen myötä. Hiili sitoutuu turpeeseen, kun kasvijäte maatuu ja hajoaa. Soiden ikääntyessä niiden hiilitasapaino muuttuu ja niistä alkaa vapautua enemmän hiilidioksidia kuin niihin sitoutuu. Nuoret suot kehityksensä alkuvaiheessa sitovat hiiltä tehokkaasti, koska niissä turpeen kerrostumisnopeus on nopeaa. Hiilenkierrossa vaikuttavia ympäristötekijöitä ovat turve, kasvillisuus, hydrologia ja lämpötila. Pohjoisessa soihin muodostuu paksu turvekerros, koska viileät ja kylmät olosuhteet ovat edesauttaneet sen muodostumista.
Kasvillisuus toimii suon hiilensitojana ja biomassan tuottajana. Erityisesti rahkasammaleella (Sphagnum) on tärkeä merkitys boreaalisilla soilla. Vedenpinnan tason on oltava kohtalaisen korkealla ja tasainen, jotta suon hiilenkierto säilyy optimaalisena ja turpeen muodostus mahdollistuu. Sekä ilmaston että maaperän lämpötilalla on vaikutuksensa suossa tapahtuvaan hiilenkiertoon. Lämpenevä ilmasto vaikuttaa soihin kuivattavasti, mikä saa ne muuttumaan hiilivarastoista hiilenlähteiksi.
Pohjoisimmilla alueilla ikirouta tulee sulamaan, mikä lisää kasvihuonekaasupäästöjä ilmakehään entisestään. Ilmastonmuutos tulee muuttamaan suon ympäristötekijöitä eri paikoissa eri tavoin. Suon toiminta hiilivarastona tai -lähteenä määräytyy lähinnä paikallisten ominaisuuksien ja sääolosuhteiden, kuten sadannan ja lämpötilan mukaan.
Ihmisen toiminta on osaltaan häirinnyt soiden luonnollista kehitystä ja edesauttanut soista vapautuvien hiilidioksidipäästöjen vapautumista ilmakehään. Häirittyjä soita pyritään palauttamaan luonnontilaisiksi, jotta turpeen muodostuminen palautuisi ja mahdollistaisi pitkäaikaisten hiilinielujen syntymisen.

Ville d’Iran occidental, située dans l’actuelle plaine du Khuzistan au pied des monts Zagros, Suse tout au long de son histoire a été soumise à la double influence de la Mésopotamie et de la confédération élamite. C’est dans ce contexte d’alternance que s’est développée une civilisation complexe et originale. La compréhension de celle-ci passe par l’examen des actes d’achat qui ont été découverts lors des fouilles dirigées par R. De Mecquenem, effectuées entre 1927 et 1928 dans le secteur dit de la «Ville royale». Le corpus se compose de 99 textes rédigés en akkadien, sur des tablettes d’argiles non cuites, dont une première publication a été réalisée par V. Scheil, assyriologue de la mission dès 1930. Cette étude s’organise autour de deux axes principaux. L’analyse juridique complète du formulaire permet tout d’abord de mettre en évidence son évolution ainsi que sa structuration progressive. La comparaison des schémas ainsi obtenus avec ceux des principaux sites mésopotamiens et de la ville élamite de Kabnak, a contribué à l’établissement de points de ressemblance et de dissemblance attestant de l’originalité du droit susien. A l’intérieur de cette analyse, une attention particulière a été portée aux clauses faisant intervenir des notions élamites, de manière à essayer d’en donner l’interprétation la plus précise possible. Le second volet est consacré à la détermination des caractéristiques de la société susienne à partir des données contenues dans ces contrats. Pour établir un portrait de la ville aussi réaliste que possible, les indications fournies par les achats ont été comparées et complétées par la consultation de la totalité du corpus juridique, ainsi que par l’étude des données archéologiques et ethnologiques. Le croisement de ces diverses sources offre une image satisfaisante des cadres de la société susienne pendant la première moitié du deuxième millénaire<br>Susa is a city of western Iran located in the current plain of Khuzestan close to the Zagros mounts. Throughout its history, Susa was subjected to the double influence of Mesopotamia and Elamite Confederation. In such a dual context has grown a complex and original civilization. This survey is based on the acts of purchase which were discovered during excavations realised by R. De Mecquenem, between 1927 and 1928, in the so-called «Royal City» area. The corpus is made up of 99 texts written in akkadian on uncooked clay shelves, a first publication of which was accomplished by V. Scheil, assyriologist of mission from 1930. This study is organized around two main parts. In a first part, the complete legal analysis of the contracts made it possible to highlight their evolution like their progressive structuring. The results have been compared with those known for the main Mesopotamians sites like for the elamite city of Kabnak. This showed some points of resemblance and dissimilarity attesting of the originality of the Susan right. Within this analysis, a detailed attention was paid to the contracts utilizing elamite concepts, so as to try to give the most precise possible interpretation of it. In a second part, the data contained in these contracts are analysed in order to obtain the characteristics of the Susan society. To establish a realistic portrait of the city, the indications provided by the purchases were compared and supplemented by the consultation of the whole legal corpus, and by the study of the archaeological and ethnological data. The crossing of these various sources offers a complete image of the Susan society during first half of the second millennium

Full textAbstract:
Les musiques des sociétés anciennes constituent un terrain de recherche passionnant et peu exploré dans le domaine de l’archéologie. Cet art éphémère et immatériel par excellence laisse en effet peu de traces susceptibles d’être étudiées par l’archéologue. Pourtant, les découvertes exceptionnelles d’instruments anciens, survenues dès les années 1920 dans le cimetière royal d’Ur ont suscité l’intérêt des chercheurs pour la musique du Proche-Orient ancien, participant à l’émergence d’une approche novatrice : l’archéomusicologie. Cette étude est consacrée à l’Élam, dans le Sud-Ouest iranien, région demeurée en retrait des études archéomusicologiques proche-orientales. L’objectif principal de cette étude est de proposer une restitution de l’instrumentarium élamite et d’en cerner à la fois l’évolution et les spécificités, tout en considérant les traits qui la rattachent à la sphère proche-orientale.En premier lieu, afin de dresser le cadre chronoculturel de ce travail, nous présentons une synthèse historiographique et un état des connaissances sur l’Élam, à partir de l’exploitation des données des fouilles anciennes et plus récentes, et des sources épigraphiques. Le cadre théorique de l’étude est ensuite défini à travers un exposé de l’histoire de la recherche sur les musiques anciennes, et plus particulièrement du Proche-Orient, soulignant les axes suivis pour traiter du phénomène musical. Ce bilan et le constat de la nature des données musicales disponibles pour la région – hétérogènes et disparates – permettent de définir notre approche archéomusicologique. Ainsi, le corpus rassemblé, principalement constitué de représentations musicales, nous a conduite à adopter une approche croisée et comparative, associant l’analyse de ces sources iconographiques, mais également des quelques vestiges d’instruments documentés, et des sources textuelles issues de cette région, entre le Chalcolithique et l’âge du Fer (fin du Ve - milieu du Ier millénaire avant J.-C.). La majorité de la documentation est issue de Suse, mais d’autres sites ont fourni des données musicales, pris en compte dans notre analyse (Choga Mish, Haft Tépé, Tchoga Zanbil, Tall-i Malyan, Kul-e Farah, Arjān et Ninive).Une part importante de notre analyse organologique réside dans la classification, la définition et l’identification des types d’instruments documentés par la culture matérielle de ces sites. L’inventaire détaillé et l’analyse des artefacts suso-élamites reliés à la sphère musicale ont ainsi abouti à la création d’un catalogue raisonné, richement illustré, qui constitue une base solide pour l’étude du phénomène musical de cette aire culturelle. Enfin, la synthèse issue du croisement des données iconographiques et historiques, et la comparaison avec les sources proche-orientales permet de proposer une restitution de l’instrumentarium suso-élamite, en soulignant ses spécificités et ses emprunts potentiels. Ces résultats offrent des pistes de réflexion sur l’évolution de ces instruments dans une perspective plus large, discutées à la fin de cette étude. Outre ces résultats, pour contribuer de façon concrète à une meilleure appréhension du phénomène musical dans l’Élam ancien, nous proposons également la reconstruction expérimentale d’un luth, dont l’objectif est non seulement de tester des hypothèses quant aux matériaux et techniques employées, mais également de fournir des pistes sérieuses pour aborder la dimension sonore des instruments du passé<br>The music from earliest societies is a fascinating but poorly explored archaeological field of research. This ephemeral and intangible art par excellence leaves meager remains for archaeologists’ scrutiny. However, the remarkable discoveries of extant instruments dated from the third millennium onward, excavated in the 1920s at the Royal Cemetery of Ur, have ignited a significant interest for ancient Near-Eastern music researchers, further contributing to the emergence of an innovative perspective that came to be known as archaeomusicology.This study is devoted to the land of Elam in South-Western Iran, a region that has been neglected in Near-Eastern archaeomusicology. The main objective of this work is to propose a restitution of the Elamite instrumentarium and to identify both its evolution and its specificities while considering features with which it relates to the Near-Eastern context.Firstly, in order to set the chrono-cultural framework of this research, we have proposed a historiographic synthesis running concurrently with the current status of our knowledge about Elam. This rests on the exploration of data from early and more recent excavations, as well as from epigraphic sources. Then, the theoretical framework of the study will be defined through a presentation of the research history of ancient music, and more particularly in the Near-East, highlighting themes addressing to the musical phenomenon. This review and the assessment of the nature of the musical data available for the region – heterogeneous and disparate – permits a definition of our archaeomusicological approach. Thus, the collected corpus, mainly consisting of musical representations, led us to adopt a cross and comparative approach, combining the analysis of these iconographic sources, but also of the few remains of documented instruments, and textual sources from this region, between the Chalcolithic and the Iron Age (late 5th - mid 1st millennium BC). Most of the documentation originates from Susa, but other sites have provided musical data, which were included in our analysis (Chogha Mish, Haft Tappeh, Chogha Zanbil, Tall-i Malyan, Kul-e Farah, Arjān and Nineveh).An important part of our organological analysis lies in the classification, definition and identification of the types of instruments documented in the material culture of these sites. The detailed inventory and analysis of Susan-Elamite artifacts related to the musical sphere have therefore led to the production of a richly illustrated catalogue, which constitutes a strong basis for the study of the musical phenomenon in this cultural area. Finally, the synthesis resulting from the crossing of iconographic and historical data, and the comparison with Near-Eastern sources has lead to a restitution of the Susan-Elamite instrumentarium, highlighting its specificities and potential borrowings. These results have provided food for thought about the evolution of these instruments from a broader perspective, discussed at the end of this research. In addition to these results, and in order to contribute in a concrete way to a better understanding of the musical phenomenon in ancient Elam, we have also proposed the experimental reconstruction of a lute, the objective of which being not only the testing of hypotheses about the materials and techniques used, but also providing a reliable way to address the matter of instrumental sound dimensions in the past

Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse a été effectuée dans le cadre de la recherche de la supersymmetrie (SUSY) avec 20.3 fb^{-1} de collisions proton-proton délivrées par le LHC et collectées par le détecteur ATLAS à sqrt{s} = 8 TeV. Si SUSY est réalisée dans la nature, des squarks (partenaires des quarks) et des gluinos (partenaires des gluons) devraient être produits à cette énergie, et on attend à ce qu'ils se désintègrent en états finaux sans electron ni muon, plusieurs jets et de l'énergie transverse manquante (due à la production de la particule SUSY la plus légère (LSP) qui traverse le détecteur sans être observée). La première partie de cette thèse consiste à définir deux régions de validation utilisées dans la procédure finale de fit visant à évaluer le bruit de fond provenant des bosons W et des top quarks qui se désintègrent en leptons tau. A partir de ce fait, et comme on n'a observé aucun excès, on dérive des limites sur les masses des particules dans des modèles simplifiés ou dans des modèles SUSY avec peu de paramètres. Une limite d'exclusion à 95% de niveau de confiance sur la masse des gluinos a été déterminée à 1330 GeV pour le modèle simplifié avec un gluino et un neutralino sans masse. Dans le cadre de mSUGRA/CMSSM avec tan beta = 30, A_0 = -2m_0 et mu > 0, les squarks et gluinos sont exclus pour des masses inférieures à 1700 GeV. L'ajout d'un véto sur les évènements avec les leptons tau est aussi explorée et l'impact sur l'exclusion a été évaluée.Le deuxième partie de cette thèse a été effectuée dans le cadre du modèle phénoménologique minimal supersymmétrique (pMSSM) où l'interprétation des résultats de l'analyse 0-lepton mentionnée ci-dessus, ainsi que les résultats d'autres analyses d'ATLAS, a été menée à bien. Le choix des paramètres et de leur domaine d'exploration a été faite sur la base de résultats non-SUSY comme les désintégrations rares des mésons B, la masse de boson de Higgs, les limites de recherche directe de la matière noire et la limite sur la densité de matière noire de l'Univers. La contribution de cette thèse commence par la validation de la sélection des évènements au niveau truth et reconstruit. Comme cette analyse est la plus contraignante dans le pMSSM, cette validation est faite avec une attention particulière. Les contraintes obtenues avec toutes les analyses sur les masses des différentes particules SUSY sont décrites, en particulier pour les squarks, gluinos et neutralinos. Les résultats sont discutés pour les types des LSP différents: bino, wino et Higgsino. Enfin, les résultats de l'analyse 0-lepton seule sont décrits et expliqués, à la fois pour les masses des sparticules et pour les valeurs des paramètres du pMSSM, puisque l'analyse 0-lepton est la seule qui permet de mettre des limites en se basant sur une procédure statistique bien définie<br>This thesis has been performed in the context of the search for supersymmetry (SUSY) with the 20.3 fb^{-1} of LHC proton-proton collision data collected with the ATLAS detector at $sqrt{s}$ = 8 TeV. If SUSY is present in nature, squarks (partners of quarks) and gluinos (partners of gluons) are expected to be produced copiously at this energy, leading to events which main signature is no electron nor muon, a large number of jets and missing transverse energy (from the production of the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) leaving the detector unseen) denoted the 0-lepton analysis. The first part of the work presented in this thesis concentrates on the definition of Validation Regions used in the final fitting procedure to better assess the background coming from W-boson and top quark decays to tau leptons. From this fit, and since no excess has been observed, upper limits on various supersymmetric particles production have been derived within simplified models or SUSY models with low number of parameters. The exclusion limits at the 95% confidence level on the mass of the gluino has been set to 1330 GeV for a simplified model incorporating only a gluino and the (massless) lightest neutralino. In the mSUGRA/CMSSM models with $tanbeta=30$, $A_0=-2m_0$ and $mu>0$, squarks and gluinos of equal mass have been excluded for masses below 1700 GeV. A possible addition of a veto on the events containing tau leptons was also explored by assessing its impact on the exclusion reach of the analysis.The second part of this thesis has been done under the 19 parameters phenomenological Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (pMSSM) interpretation which not only uses the results of the above mentioned 0-lepton analysis but also other ATLAS searches results. The choice of the parameters and their range of exploration has been done on the basis of non-SUSY experimental results such as the rare B-decays, the mass of the SM Higgs boson, the limits from direct DM searches and the upper limit on the cold dark matter energy density of the Universe. The contribution of this thesis starts with the validation of the event selection at the truth and reconstructed levels. Knowing that this is the most constraining ATLAS analysis in the pMSSM parameter space, those checks have been performed with particular care. The constraints obtained with all the analyses on the various sparticle masses are described afterwards, concentrating on squarks, gluinos and neutralinos. The results are discussed for the different natures of the LSP: bino, wino and higgsino. Finally the 0-lepton-only results are described and further explained, first on sparticle mass planes and later on the pMSSM parameters, since only the 0-lepton analysis leads to a well defined statistical procedure that allows to derive properly all those results

Full textAbstract:
Background By the beginning of the 20th century, the men’s suit entered the menswear market as one the most important fashion garments everdevised. At the same time, fashion became mainly a female engagement, resulting in an under representation of men’s fashion through out the past decade. Relating to the textile and apparel industry, fashion forecasting has become an increasingly important business activity. But the nature of fashion forecasting and the historical neglecting of the men’s suit has created complications when performing this activity. Purpose The purpose of this thesis is to examine the men’s suit and its development from the given starting point in the 20th century until today, in order to derive a fashion forecasting model suggesting its development by 2029. Design/methodology/approach This thesis uses an abductive research approach and qualitative multi-methods to answer the research questions. The usage of an intermediate research project answers the first research question. The second research question is answered through the synthesis ofa literature study and semi-structured interviews. The third research question is answered through the derived forecasting model, accomplished through theory matching. Findings By carrying out a historical investigation of the men’s suit, and then applying this to the derived forecasting model, the men’s suit is expected to be found in both single- and double-breast styles. The suit will have classical features represented through the length, canvas structure, and shoulder construction. Originality/value This paper carries out a historical investigation of the men’s suit never been done before. It introduces an evaluation framework to categorise and classify the men’s suit, as well as a forecasting model followed by an actual fashion forecast.

Full textAbstract:
La cause efficiente du contrat est une notion sur laquelle la doctrine ne s'attarde pas. Cette notion represente pourtant un outil indispensable a la comprehension des debats relatifs a la force obligatoire du contrat et a la portee du principle du consensualisme ; de maniere generale, elle constitue l'une des pieces maitresses de toute theorie du contrat et de l'acte juridique. Est cause efficiente du contrat tout evenement a la survenance duquel l'effet contractuel considere est imperativement et specialement suybordonne. Cette definition, tres generale, ne suffit pas a caracteriser la notion, car il existe deux conceptions tres differentes de la cause efficiente du contrat. La conception mecaniste de la cause efficiente contractuelle suppose que les effets contratuels sont unis a leur cause efficiente par un lien de causalite sembable a celui qui relie un phenomene physique a sa cause. La cause efficiente mecanique est une cause generatrice. La conception mecaniste de la cause efficiente contractuelle explique la formation du contrat par un principe de causalite. Toutefois, le droit positif francais ne se plie pas au determinisme que la conception mecaniste implique quant a la formation du contrat. La conception normativiste de la cause efficiente contractuelle considere que les effets contratuels sont rattaches, de maniere artificielle, par le droit objectif a la rencontre des volontes des parties contractantes. Cette conception substitue au lien de causaulite postule par la conception mecaniste une relation d'imputation qui fait de la

Esta investigación, de carácter interdisciplinario, gira en torno a las memorias
y los cantos rituales de la fiesta de toma de chicha de maíz (rewinki) de los iskonawa
del río Callería, pueblo indígena pano ubicado en el departamento de Ucayali (Perú).
El objetivo de esta tesis es comprender los recuerdos y las significaciones que
persisten en las memorias de los iskonawa respecto a los cantos asociados al
rewinki. Este ritual dejó de realizarse años atrás, por lo que tanto los conceptos
teóricos como la metodología empleada comprenden que se trata de un trabajo de
memoria que requiere de elementos que permitan registrar y observar el recuerdo.
Es por ello que, a partir de una mirada etnográfica, utilizando los aportes de la
Antropología, la Etnomusicología y la Lingüística, la investigación se realizó junto
con los ancianos iskonawa y sus familias. Es así que, en la introducción, se
desarrollan los objetivos, la justificación, se explica la metodología y se presenta a
los participantes y el lugar donde se realizó el trabajo de campo. Posteriormente, en
el primer capítulo se desarrollan los antecedentes sobre el tratamiento de temas de
memoria y música entre los pueblos indígenas de la Amazonía, siendo los rituales
y la experiencia sobre la corporalidad transversales a ello, para luego explicar los
conceptos de etnomusicología, traducción, memoria, performance ritual y cuerpo;
los cuales contienen, a su vez, información metodológica utilizada en la
investigación. En el capítulo II se explica qué, cómo y dónde se recuerda el ritual
estableciendo una relación entre la memoria y los diferentes espacios en los que
esta transita. Asimismo, se describe el ritual como una forma de comprender el
espacio y las significaciones que, a través de los cantos, prevalecen en las
memorias de los iskonawa. Finalmente, en el capítulo III, se presentan las

Full textAbstract:
Cinq cent vingt-neuf figurines de terre cuite provenant du site iranien de Suse et datées des époques hellénistique et parthe sont étudiées dans le but de définir quel fut l'impact de la culture grecque dans une grande ville du proche orient hellénise et de déterminer les modes de contact entre populations grecque et orientale. Les caractéristiques techniques, iconographiques et stylistiques des terres cuites sont décrites et commentées dans un catalogue, conçu en fonction des derniers développements de la recherche en matière de coroplathie et qui prend en compte les procédés de reproduction de type industriel que permet le moulage des figurines. La thèse comprend aussi un volume de synthèse organise en trois parties. Les figurines sont d'abord replacées dans leur contexte archéologique de manière à en préciser la date et la fonction. Les travaux effectués par les missions archéologiques qui fouillèrent les niveaux récents de Suse n'ont pas toujours été publiés et c'est donc l'occasion d'en présenter une étude synthétique. La deuxième partie concerne les procédés de fabrication des figurines qui sont d'abord décrits. Une comparaison avec les méthodes de fabrication plus anciennes montre que les figurines ont été produites par des coroplathes orientaux. L'étude met aussi en évidence la circulation de moules ou de figurines entre plusieurs sites de la région. La troisième partie traite de l'iconographie et du style des figurines susiennes. Elle confirme d'abord l'origine orientale des coroplathes qui adoptèrent souvent une iconographie grecque mais qui la transposèrent dans un style oriental, montre l'originalité du répertoire susien par rapport à celui des autres sites de la région et met en évidence l'importance de la culture grecque à Suse<br>529 figurines of terracotta dated of the hellenistic and parthian periods, which are from the Iranian site of Susa, are studied. The aim is to determine the action of the greek civilization in a great city of the near east and to examine cultural contacts between greek and oriental populations. Technical, iconographical and stylistical characters of the terracottas are discribed and commented in a catalogue which takes the evolution of the research in consideration : the use of molds allows a mechanical and industrial production of terracottas. With the catalogue, another volume is divided in three parts. First, the figurines are replaced in their archaeological context for specifying their chronology and their function. The works of the archaeological expeditions which have explored the late levels of susa had even not been published. It was interesting to present their results. The second part is about the fabrication of the figurines. If we compare the technic with the ancient ones, we can determine that the coroplasts were oriental workers. It's also possible to prove the circulation of figurines or molds from on site of the near east to another. The iconography and style of the Susian figurines are examined in the third part. The oriental origin of the coroplasts is corroborate by the fact that the workers frequently adopted a greek iconography but worked in an oriental style. The originality of the Susa's repertory and the importance of the greek culture in Susa are also showed

Les théories supersymétriques, telles que le Modèle Standard Supersymétrique Minimal, constituent des extensions très populaires du Modèle Standard de physique des particules, et sont activement recherchées au Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Dans cette thèse, nous nous concentrons sur deux aspects de la phénoménologie des théories supersymétriques aux collisionneurs hadroniques de haute-énergie, à savoir les collisions polarisées, et les calculs de précision. Dans un premier temps, nous réalisons une étude au Leading Order (LO), dans laquelle nous montrons comment la présence de faisceaux polarisés (longitudinalement) pourrait nous aider à différencier des modèles de Nouvelle Physique présentant la même signature à l'état final. A titre d'exemple, nous considérons le cas d'une classe particulière de scénarios, menant à la production de monotops, qui correspondent à la production d'un quark top en association avec de l'énergie transverse manquante. Nous présentons nos résultats pour un LHC polarisé à 14 TeV, et pour le récemment proposé Futur Collisionneur Circulaire (FCC), supposé opérer à 100 TeV. Par la suite, nous nous concentrons sur la réalisation de prédictions de précisions pour la production de paires de particules supersymétriques colorées au next-to-leading order (NLO) en QCD supersymétrique, avec ou sans violation non-minimale de saveur, et avec ou sans Parton Shower (PS). Plus particulièrement, nous fournissons les premiers résultats (préliminaires) pour la production de squark-antisquark au NLO en SUSY-QCD avec violation non-minimale de saveur, dans le cas d'un calcul à ordre perturbatif fixe, et considérons dans le contexte de modèles simplifiés la production par paires de particules colorées de type scalaire et Majorana au NLO avec PS<br>Supersymmetric theories, such as the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM), constitute very popular extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics that are extensively searched for at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). In this thesis, we focus on two specific aspects of the phenomenology of supersymmetric theories at high-energy hadron colliders, namely polarized collisions and precision calculations. First, we perform a Leading Order (LO) study, in which we show how the availability of (longitudinally) polarized proton beams could us help us to disentangle various Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) scenarios exhibiting the same final-state signature. For the sake of illustration, we focus on the case of one particular class of scenarios leading to monotop production, which corresponds to the production of a top quark in association with missing transverse energy. We present our results for a polarized LHC at 14 TeV, and for the recently proposed Future Circular Collider (FCC), supposed to operate at 100 TeV. Then, we concentrate on precise predictions for the pair production of coloured supersymmetric particles at next-to-leading order (NLO) in supersymmetric QCD, with or without Non-Minimal Flavour Violations (NMFV), and with or without matching those predictions with Parton Showers (PS). More specifically, we provide the first preliminary results for squark-antisquark pair production at NLO in SUSY-QCD with NMFV, in the case of a fixed order calculation, and consider in the context of simplified models the pair production of coloured scalar and coloured Majorana particles at NLO matched with PS

Full textAbstract:
The aim of this project was to investigate the use of textile structures as muscles to assist people with muscular deficiency or paralysis. Due to the average life expectancy continuing to increase, support for those needing assistance to move unaided is also increasing. The purpose of this project was to try to help a patient who would normally need assistance, to move their arm unaided. It could also help with rehabilitation of muscular injuries and increasing strength and reducing muscular fatigue of manual workers. The approach considered was to develop an extra corporal device for the upper limbs, providing the main required motions. Most devices currently available use motors and gearboxes to assist in limb movement. This study investigated a way of mimicking the contraction of biological skeletal muscles to create a motion that is as human as possible with a soft, flexible and lightweight construction. Electroactive polymers (EAPs) and pneumatic artificial muscles (PAMs) were investigated. It became clear that at present, the EAPs were unable to create the forces and speed of contraction required for this application. The use of pneumatics to create artificial muscles was developed upon. PAMs, like the McKibben muscle and the pleated pneumatic muscle mimic the natural contraction of skeletal muscle. These current PAMs were used as a basis to develop a new type of pneumatic artificial muscle in this project. A 90 mm ball-like structure was developed, produced from an air impermeable rubber coated cotton fabric. Joining three oval panels together created a 3-D spherical shape. Three of these structures were linked together, and when inflated, created an acceptable level of contraction and force. This method of producing artificial muscles created a soft, lightweight and flexible actuator with scope for different arrangements, sizes and positions of the muscle structure. The contraction process was mathematically modelled. This calculated the predicted rate and level of contraction of a 2-D muscle structure. These mathematical findings were able to be compared to the practical results, and produced similar contraction characteristics. The muscle structures were incorporated into a garment to form a type of muscle suit which could be worn to assist movement. This garment has an aluminium frame to protect the wearer's bones from stresses from the contracting muscles. This study has shown that the muscle suit developed can create movement for wearers that would normally need assistance, and also reduce muscle fatigue, which would be useful for manual workers. This is incorporated into a functional and wearable garment, which is easy to dress and more lightweight and aesthetically pleasing than current muscle suits.

Full textAbstract:
As companies fight for market share whoever is able to bring products to market faster has an advantage over their competitors. Therefore it is absolutely essential to constantly evaluate and optimize processes to achieve shorter time-to-market for products. These optimizations have to be carried out in all parts of a company. This thesis describes one such attempt made by a Swedish telecommunication vendor focused on enabling a resource management system to gain a greater understanding of the resources available during testing. This system manages all of the hardware utilized by the users, software testers, within one particular part of the organization and aids users by automatically converting the information stored in its database into a configuration file that will later be used in the testing framework’s execution environment. Unfortunately, the current version of this resource management system lacks semantic understanding of the information necessary to automatically generate the configuration file, leaving a rather large part of the configuration file to be manually entered by the testers, a rather time-consuming task. The inability to completely automate the process means that the testing process is slower, more error prone, and increases the work needed for a new engineer to become a productive software tester. In order for the resource management system to automatically generate the configuration file it needs to know not only which resources it is managing, but must also how these resources are interconnected, i.e. the topology of the resources. For this reason this thesis describes how to make the resource management system topologically aware, thus making verification of the System under Test (SUT) more efficient and mitigating the problems mentioned above. This thesis does not deal with the intricate details of how to automatically extract the topology, as this is inherently domain specific and thus difficult to generalize. Rather, this thesis focused on how to allow users to custom-build their desired topology by defining a set of rules that restrict how resources can be interconnected. The goal of providing functionality for storing and retrieving topological information from database has been successfully achieved, and the resulting code has been integrated into the existing resource management system. However, the functionality has not yet been delivered because of a limitation in our front controller that stops us from providing an efficient web interface to our tool. After delivery the implemented solution is expected to remove most manual work related to test configuration and therefore also reduce the learning curve for new engineers.<br>När företag slåss om marknadsandelar har de som kan leverera produkter till marknaden snabbare en fördel över sina konkurrenter. Det är därför av högsta vikt att kontinuerligt utvärdera och optimera processer för att produkten snabbare skall nå marknaden. Dessa optimeringar måste utföras inom samtliga områden inom ett företag. Denna uppsats beskriver ett sådant försök av ett svenskt telekombolag att stärka ett resurshanteringssystem för att uppnå en högre förståelse för de resurser den hanterar. Detta system hanterar samtlig hårdvara för användare (mjukvarutestare) inom en del av organisationen. Det hjälper användarna att automatiskt konvertera informationen i sin databas till en konfigurationsfil som används i testramverkets exekveringsmiljö. Tyvärr saknar den nuvarande versionen den semantiska förståelsen av dess data för att kunna automatiskt generera konfigurationsfilen, vilket tvingar användaren att manuellt ägna sig åt denna tidskrävande uppgift. Oförmågan att inte kunna automatisera fullt ut innebär att den övergripande testprocessen är långsammare, mer felbenägen och ökar tiden det tar för en ny ingenjör att komma igång och bli en produktiv mjukvarutestare. För att resurshanteringssystemet ska kunna generera konfigurationsfilen automatiskt krävs inte bara kunskap om vilka resurser den hanterar utan också hur dessa är sammankopplade. Det vill säga hur de topologiskt relaterar till varandra. Den här uppsatsen beskriver därför hur ett resurshanteringssystem kan bli topologiskt medvetet och därigenom åstadkomma en mer effektiv testning av produkten och därmed överkomma de tidigare nämnda problemen. Denna uppsats inte gå in på detaljer om hur man extraherar den topologiska strukturen av resurser eftersom detta i sin natur är domänspecifikt och därigenom svårt att generalisera. Fokus istället ligga på hur man kan tillåta användare att bygga önskad topologi genom att definiera regler för hur olika resurser kan sammankopplas. Målet vi satte upp med att kunna lagra och inhämta topologisk information från en databas har med framgång integrerats i det existerande resurshanteringssystemet. Ändringen är dock ännu inte fullt ut levererad på grund av en begränsning i vår nuvarande front controller som hindrar oss från att på ett effektivt sätt koppla samman vårt nya verktyg med ett webbgränsnitt. Efter leverans förväntas den implementerade lösningen eliminera större delen av det manuella arbete som tidigare krävts i samband med konfiguration av testmiljön, och därigenom även minska inlärningskurvan för nya ingenjörer.

Full textAbstract:
Le Modèle Standard de la physique des particules est un modèle décrivant très bien les particules élémentaires et leurs interactions mais plusieurs raisons motivent les physiciens à rechercher de la physique au-delà de ce modèle. La supersymétrie correspond à une des extensions les plus prometteuses. La thèse est axée sur deux sujets, et repose sur les données acquises en 2015 et 2016 avec le détecteur ATLAS du LHC (CERN):La première partie est un travail de performance permettant d'améliorer la mesure de l'énergie des jets de particules. Ces objets sont générés par l'hadronisation des quarks et des gluons par interaction nucléaire forte et sont difficiles à reconstruire. Ma contribution correspond à la dernière étape et repose entièrement sur les données. La méthode se base sur les mesures effectuées sur les photons qui servent d'objets de référence. Mon travail a consisté à mettre en place la méthode, estimer les corrections en énergie et évaluer les incertitudes. Les corrections obtenues sont de l'ordre de 2-3% en fonction de l'énergie des jets. L'incertitude sur l'échelle en énergie des jets est estimée à environ 1% pour les trois types de jets étudiés. Les résultats sont actuellement utilisés par la collaboration ATLAS. Cette méthode permet également de mesurer la résolution en énergie des jets du détecteur. Une résolution de l'ordre de 17%-22% est obtenue à 40 GeV en fonction du type de jet étudié, et 4% à 1 TeV, avec une incertitude de l'ordre de 10%.La deuxième partie de la thèse porte sur la recherche d'un signal de supersymétrie. Le signal recherché correspond à la production d'une paire de squarks ou de gluinos et comprend des jets et de l'énergie transverse manquante dans l'état final. Mon travail porte principalement sur l'optimisation des critères de sélections en se basant sur plusieurs modèles simplifiés de supersymétrie. Neuf nouvelles régions de signal ont été introduites dans l'analyse. Les limites tracées au cours du Run 1 sur la masse des squarks et gluinos ont ainsi été augmentées pour atteindre une valeur maximale respective de l'ordre de 1.6 TeV et 2 TeV sur les modèles étudiés<br>The Standard Model of particle physics is a very precise model describing the elementary particles and their interactions. However, some issues lead physicists to search for physics beyond the Standard Model. Supersymmetry is an extension of the Standard Model providing solutions to the current issues. In this thesis, results are obtained using the data collected in 2015 and 2016 with the ATLAS detector at the LHC (CERN). The thesis is based in two parts:The first part is a performance analysis improving the energy measurement of high energy objects called "jets". They are generated by the hadronization of quarks and gluons in the detector via the strong nuclear interaction. My contribution is the last step of the the reconstruction and calibration chain and is fully based on data. The method uses the very precise measurement of the photon energy, and provides corrections to the jet energy scale. My contribution consists in set-up the method, estimate the corrections, measure the jet energy scale and evaluate the uncertainties. Corrections are at the order of 2-3% as a function of the jet energy scale. The uncertainty of the jet energy scale is estimated to be at the order of 1% for the three jet types. Results are now used by the ATLAS Collaboration. This method is also used to estimate the jet energy resolution. A resolution at the order of 17%-22% at 40 GeV depending on the jet type, and 4% at 1 TeV is obtained with an uncertainty at the order of 10%.The second part of the thesis corresponds to the search for supersymmetry. The signal corresponds to a pair of supersymmetric particles called squarks and gluinos and corresponds to jets and missing transverse energy in the final state. My contribution mainly corresponds to the optimisation of the selections using several simplified models of supersymmetry. Nine signal regions have been introduced in the analysis. Limits on the mass of squarks and gluinos computed during the Run 1 have been greatly improved to reach a maximal value respectively at the order of 1.6 TeV and 2 TeV

Os resultados apontaram que os estudantes possuem visões diversas sobre o SUS; os princípios e diretrizes do SUS são parcialmente conhecidos pelos estudantes; as ações de promoção, proteção e recuperação da saúde são relatadas como serviços oferecidos pelo SUS. Entre as estratégias utilizadas pelas escolas/cursos para a construção do conhecimento sobre o SUS estão a diversificação dos cenários de aprendizagem e as atividades de pesquisa e extensão. As Diretrizes Curriculares dos Cursos de Graduação em Enfermagem têm provocado mudanças nos currículos e projetos pedagógicos das escolas/cursos. Essas mudanças, no entanto, não tem sido capazes de provocar transformações significativas na formação das enfermeiras, a qual ainda está voltada para as atividades de recuperação da saúde, desenvolvidas de forma fragmentada e desarticulada com as necessidades de saúde da população. Os cenários de aprendizagem mudaram, a pesquisa e extensão foram incorporadas à formação, mas as práticas desenvolvidas continuam fragmentando o saber e atendendo a lógica do atendimento individual e curativo.<br>Salvador

Full textAbstract:
This study attempts to answer the question of whether the propaganda of the Swedish political parties ”Socialdemokraterna”, and/or ”Sverigedemokraterna”, used for the election to the European parliament 2009, are to be viewed as populistic. Furthermore, is the propaganda to viewed as included in the ”Classical populism”, the ”New populism”, both, or none of the above genres? With a theoretical approach deriving from earlier works on the subject Classical/New populism from a number of writers, the study uses empirical and qualitative text analysis to study the parties propaganda. For each of the two genres of populism an ideal type is set up, which is used to define their core elements. The empirical material is then put in relation to these two ideal types as a reference point, so that it can be examined systematically. The main result of the study concludes that none of the two ideal types matches the information that can be read out from the party ”Socialdemokraterna”´s election propaganda, and that it therefore is to be regarded as neither ”Classical” nor ”New” populism. ”Sverigedemokraterna”´s propaganda on the other hand, displays all of the characteristics that are defined by the theory used in the study as ”New populism”.

Thesis (S.B.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, 2008.<br>A preliminary prototype of a new athletic apparel product uses resistive straps, integrated within a suit, to provide muscular resistance. This developing fitness product allows users to exercise both their upper and lower bodies through either a regimented workout or just with daily movements. An athletic workout suit that can provide a full body workout by using elastic straps that resist bodily movements was developed, redesigned, and tested. This project had three components: A resistive band was selected after various material tests, the interaction between strap placements and muscle movement was clarified, and finally a solution to anchoring the bands to the suit in a user-friendly method while allowing the resistance to be adjusted was designed. This product now has the potential to increase the efficiency at which people exercise, provide alternatives to existing workouts, and encourage healthy lifestyle.<br>by Christopher Desrochers.<br>S.B.

Thesis: S.M., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Mechanical Engineering, 2013.<br>Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.<br>Includes bibliographical references (pages 51-52).<br>The focus of this thesis is on the design, development, and evaluation of a lightweight, exotendon suit for load carriage. The suit is intended to be worn underneath the wearer's own clothes for use in a military setting, while reducing the energy expenditure of the wearer. A simple exotendon suit architecture was designed and implemented, consisting of two knee braces, a length of polypropylene tendon, a belt, two electro-magnet clutches, and a control box. The electro-magnet clutches are mounted at the waist and tendons are used to apply the actuator's force to the wearer's ankles. This is advantageous, as many current exoskeletons mount actuators at the ankles, requiring a greater amount of additional energy expenditure. Testing was performed at the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering Motion Capture Laboratory. Metabolic power was tested using a COSMED K4b2 system and surface electromyogram (sEMG) data was collected using a Delsys Trigno system. Five male subjects participated in six trials, walking on a treadmill at 1.25 m/s, carrying a 20 kg load in a standard military rucksack. The six trials consisted of three conditions: street clothes, exosuit worn but unpowered (passive), and exosuit word and powered (active). Results of the tests were inconclusive. There was no significant evidence that powering the exosuit has a positive or negative effect on the wearer's energy usage.<br>by Carmen Marten-Ellis Graves.<br>S.M.

Previous issue date: 2013-03-01<br>Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES<br>In the original RandallSundrum model, the 5D gravity is coupled to a negative cosmological
constant and a 3brane sourced by a delta function. The solution in such setup is a symmetric
solution given in terms of two copies of AdS5 spaces patched together along the 3brane.
Although in this setup the fifth dimension is infinite the volume of the 5D bulk space is
infinite because the geometry is warped. As a consequence this allows having graviton zero
mode responsible for 4D gravity on the brane. This is not necessarily true for spaces whose
volume diverges, because no zero mode emerges anymore. We investigate the localization of
metastable 4D gravity around a assymetric flat brane and a bent dilatonic brane, embedded
into a 5D space, that exists only up to distances suficiently small compared to a crossover
scale. Far from such scale, 5D effects causing deviations in Newtonian potential. In this thesis,
we present a study on this effect considering the location of massive gravity on a asymmetric
flat brane and non-BPS and BPS bent dilatonic 3brane solutions of a supergravity 5D. The
parameters control the thickness of the membrane also control the crossover scale of the first
case. In the other hand, the cosmological constant on the bent brane controls the size of
the crossover scale in second case. For suficiently small positive cosmological constant, that
is in accord with the present observations, the crossover scale becomes very large. Thus,
as emphasized in Gregory-Rubakov-Sibiryakov (GRS) and Dvali-Gabadadze-Porrati (DGP)
scenarios, we shall focus on the main beautiful characteristic of the 4D metastable gravity, that
is the fact that where as gravity becomes four-dimensional for distances very much smaller
than the crossover scale, it emerges as a 5D gravity for distances very much larger than such
scale. In doing so, we will find the Newtonian potential induced by the gravity massive modes
of a Schroedinger-like equation for the gravity fluctuations around the brane solutions.<br>No modelo de RandallSundrum, a gravidade 5D está acoplada à uma constantecosmológica negativa e uma 3brana é originado por uma função delta. A solução nestaconfiguração é simétrica, e dada em termos de duas cópias de espaços AdS5 unidos ao longoda 3brana. Embora a quinta dimensão seja infinita, o volume formado pelo espaço maior5D é finito, pois a geometria é deformada e esta, permite termos um modo de zero grávitonresponsável pela gravidade 4D na brana. Isso não é necessário verdade para espaços cujovolume diverge, porque nenhum modo de zero emerge mais. Nós investigamos a localizaçãode gravidade 4D, metaestável, em torno de branas mergulhadas em um espaço 5D, que sóexiste até distâncias suficientemente pequenas em comparação com uma escala de crossover.Longe de tal escala, efeitos 5D desviam fortemente o potencial Newtoniano potencial. Nestatese, estudamos esse efeito, considerando a localização de gravidade em soluções tipo 3branaplana assimétrica, e 3branas curvas dilatônicas, nãoBPS e BPS, que se originam deuma supergravidade 5D. No primeiro caso, os parâmetros que controlam a largura da branaassimétrica também controlam o tamanho da escala de crossover. Por outro lado, a constantecosmológica (positiva) na brana curva dilatônica controla o tamanho da escala de crossoverno segundo caso. Para uma constante cosmológica suficiente pequena, que está de acordo comas observações atuais, a escala de crossover se torna muito grande. Tal como nos cenáriosde Gregory-Rubakov-Sibiryakov (GRS) e Dvali-Gabadadze-Porrati (DGP), nosso foco é ainteressante característica da gravidade é metaestável 4D, para distâncias muito menoresdo que a escala de crossover, que surge como uma gravidade 5D para distâncias muito muitomaior do que tal escala. Ao fazer isso, vamos encontrar o potencial Newtoniano induzido pelosmodos massivos de gravidade oriundos de uma equação tipo Schroedinger para as flutuaçõesda gravidade em torno das soluções tipo branas.

Lee, Michael P. "EXPLORING ILLUSIONS OF HEIGHT IN SUIT DESIGN." UKnowledge, 2018. https://uknowledge.uky.edu/psychology_etds/134.
Full textAbstract:
Objective: The goal of this research was to explore how the design of clothing, specifically the design of the suit, can create height illusions.
Background: Taller people enjoy many advantages, such as increased income and perceived attractiveness. These advantages motivate people to try to appear taller than they actually are, and clothing experts provide advice on how to accomplish this. However, there is little empirical evidence to validate the illusory effects clothing might have on overall height perception. The few studies that have explored illusions of body size created by clothing design have been limited in two important ways – the test stimuli have included unnatural body shapes and have failed to include naturalistic context (i.e., surrounding depth and size cues available in real scenes).
Method: In the first phase, participants (nonexperts in clothing design) provided suggestions for how to appear taller by changing clothes. In the second phase, participants 1) viewed photographs of a variety of targets wearing suit designs that are commonly believed to manipulate viewers’ perceptions of height, 2) rated the targets on traits associated with height such as income and attractiveness, and 3) estimated the heights of these individuals. This study focused on the potential effects of suit color, specifically overall lightness (light vs. dark) and monochromaticity (monochromatic vs. lightness blocking). The effects of these designs were tested with and without contextual information by presenting targets within a natural streetscape or on a white background.
Results: In the first phase, we found that nonexperts provided similar suggestions as experts in clothing design, including those pertaining to monochromaticity and lightness. In the second phase, we found that estimates were more accurate with more contextual information, and that clothing can impact height estimations, where monochromatic outfits yielded taller height estimates, although other outfit comparisons did not have effects. Outfits overall did not impact ratings such as income and attractiveness, although estimated height did correlate with these same social attributes. In an exploration of the impact of contextual and target-specific cues other than clothing on height estimations, we found that height perception was potentially dependent on a variety of factors such as the target's race, location (indoors vs. outdoors), stance, and the presence of nearby people.
Scientific merit: This study increased our understanding of the conditions under which illusions of size in simple geometric stimuli generalize to the manipulation of size perception in real-world scenes.
Broader impact: A better understanding of biases in height perception is relevant to domains in which such estimates are used to identify individuals (e.g., criminal justice) as well as domains in which visual characteristics of individuals are associated with errors in judgments of performance-based merit. (e.g., personnel selection and promotion).

Full textAbstract:
In this thesis, we present two current topics in theoretical high energy physics: We construct the Lagrangian of a deformed supergravity theory on a manifold with a non-trivial spacetime boundary by using the geometric (or rheonomic) approach and we discuss and analyze the supersymmetry invariance of the theory. Separately, we compute some scattering amplitudes in a supersymmetric conformal field theory with the Superspace formalism and Feynman superdiagrams. These two different topics conceptually achieve a contact point through the so-called AdS/CFT duality, which is actually one of the most flourishing fields in theoretical physics today. In the supergravity limit of string theory, this duality outlines a one-to-one correspondence between operators in the CFT on the boundary and the fields of the supergravity theory in the bulk. It could constitute a possible theoretical path towards the building of a theory of quantum gravity, which is the last piece needed to complete the puzzle of unified fundamental interactions. Precisely, we first give an overview of some aspects about supersymmetry, supergravity and AdS/CFT duality, in order to introduce the main two parts of the thesis: On one hand, the study of a particular supergravity theory, which will be referred to as D = 4 generalized AdS-Lorentz deformed supergravity theory, in the presence of a non-trivial boundary (that is when the boundary of spacetime is not thought as set at infinity); on the other hand, the computation of a 1-loop MHV reduced amplitude in N = 2 SCQCD (in D = 4). In the first topic discussed in this thesis, supersymmetry is understood as a local symmetry; indeed, we are dealing with a supergravity theory. On the converse, in the second part of this dissertation, supersymmetry is a global symmetry.
