Tempo narrativo e nostalgia nel c. 64 di Catullo

L’assetto diegetico del c. 64 di Catullo è caratterizzato da una profonda incidenza del fenomeno dell’anisocronia, che mira a una cristallizzazione amplificante di alcuni frammenti temporali in grado di stimolare la vocazione retrospettiva e nostalgica più volte palesata dal poeta veronese nel suo canzoniere.The diegetic structure of Catullus’ c. 64 is characterized by a pervasive incidence of the phenomenon of anisochrony, which produces an amplifying crystallization of some temporal fragments able to stimulate the retrospective and nostalgic vocation often revealed by the Veronese poet in his liber

The Gigabit Optical Transmitters for the LHCb Calorimeters

This report presents the boards developed for the optical data transmission of the calorimeter system of the LHCb experiment and test results. We developed two types of transmission boards: the single-channel and the multi-channel ones. Multi-channel boards can be equipped with a variable number of transmitters, depending on the need, with a maximum allowed of 12 channels. Each optical channel allows transmitting 32 bit data at 40.08 MHz. The boards have been designed and built using radiation hard devices produced at CERN. The optical links have been qualified using the eye diagram and the BERT at 1.6Gbps

L’incontro di Paolino e Martiniano. Il riuso del testo biblico in Paul. Nol. carm. 24, 13-20

Nell’epistola in versi a Citerio (carm. 24), la scena in cui Paolino e il monaco-portalettere Martiniano, recentemente scampato ad un naufragio, elevano a Dio una preghiera di ringraziamento (vv. 13-20) esibisce una fisionomia lessicale caratterizzata dalla presenza di tre echi scritturistici (la formula paolina salutate invicem in osculo sancto; Psalm 49, 14; Sir 38, 16) che sviluppano specifiche risonanze connotative, espressive e semantiche capaci di riflettersi sull’intero tracciato narrativo-argomentativo del carme.In the verse epistle to Cytherius (carm. 24), the scene in which Paulinus and the monk-letter carrier Martinianus, recently escaped unharmed from a shipwreck, raise a prayer to God (vv. 13-20) exhibits a lexical facies characterized by three scriptural echoes (the Pauline formula salutate invicem in osculo sancto; Psalm 49, 14; Sir 38, 16) whose connotative, expressive and semantic resonances reflect themselves on the entire narrative-argumentative outline of the poem

Measurements on wireless transmission of ECG signals

The scope of this research is to design an electronic prototype, an operative system as a proof of concept, to transmit and receive biological parameters, in particular electrocardiogram signals, through dedicated wireless circuits. The apparatus features microelectronics chips that were developed for more general biomedical applications, here adapted to deal with cardiac signals. The paper mainly focuses on the electronic aspects, as in this study we do not face medical or clinical aspects of the system. The transmitter circuit uses a commercial instrumentation amplifier and the receiver has been equipped with wide-band amplifiers along with made-in-the-lab band-pass filters centered at the carrier. We have been able to mount the entire system prototype into a preliminary data acquisition chain that reads out the electrocardiogram signal. The prototype allows acquiring the waveform, converting it to a digital pattern and open the transmission through a series of high-frequency packets exploiting the Ultra Wide Band protocol. The sensor value is embedded in the transmission through the rate of the digital packets. In fact, these are sent wireless at a specific packet-frequency that depends on the sensor amplitude and are detected into a receiver circuit that recovers the information
