Pherekydes von Athen: Struktur der Historiai (oder: Der längere Weg von Athen bis Alexandria)

The original structure of Pherekydes’ mythographical collection remains a controversial issue. Its rearrangement in the Hellenistic period did not merely consist of a new division of the books by taking the length of the rolls into account. The article attempts to show that the overall structure of the Historiai underwent a major revision in the library of Alexandria. The author advances the theory that Pherekydes’ work wasreorganized into an encyclopaedia of historiai arranged alphabetically.The original structure of Pherekydes’ mythographical collection remains a controversial issue.

El manuscrito Edimburgensis Adv. 18.7.15 y los Catasterismos de Eratóstenes

La utilización por vez primera del manuscrito Edimburgensis Adv. 18.7.15, arquetipo de toda la tradición planudeana, cuestiona las ediciones de los Catasterismos de Eratóstenes publicadas hasta el momento. Este ejemplar, autógrafo de Planudes, fue corregido por una segunda mano -muy probablemente por Demetrio Triclinio. Por otra parte, el manuscrito Parisinus Graecus 1310 contiene un breve extracto de la edición tricliniana de los Catasterismos.Collated for the first time, the manuscript Edimburgensis Adv. 18.7.15 challenges the editions of Eratosthenes' Catasterisms published so far. This codex, an autograph by Maximus Planudes, was corrected by a second hand (most probably by Demetrius Triclinius). On the other side, the manuscript Parisinus Graecus 1310 contains a brief extract from the Triclinian edition of the Catasterisms

Simulation of quantum tunnelling on the IBM quantum computers

Treballs Finals de Grau de Física, Facultat de Física, Universitat de Barcelona. Any: 2021. Tutor: Bruno Juliá DíazWe study the time evolution of a particle in a double-well potential using IBM quan- tum computers and a classical computer. Firstly, we go over the methods for the numerical sim- ulation and the quantum computer implementation. As an example, we simulate the system in a 4-point space using 2-qubit circuits. Finally, we compare the results obtained with the di erent methods and discuss their dissimilarities and sources of error

Sobre el fragment dels Catasterismes d'Eratòstenes del manuscrit Parisinus Graecus 1310 : el nom dels planetes Saturn i Júpiter

El ms. Parisinus Graecus 1310 inclou un breu fragment de l'Epítom dels Catasterismes, obra atribuïda a Eratòstenes. A banda d'alguna variant respecte del textus receptus, presenta un capítol (43) del tot reelaborat, en què l'excepcional irregularitat de l'Epítom dels Catasterismes, pel que fa a les correspondències divines dels dos primers planetes de la nòmina de cinc, ha estat corregida per tal d'adequar els noms dels planetes Faiuou i Faethou a Saturn i a Júpiter respectivament.The manuscript Parisinus Graecus 1310 contains a brief fragment of the Epitome of the Katasterismoi, attributed to Eratosthenes. Except some variants from the textus receptus, it presents a completely reelaborated chapter (43); in this chapter, the exceptional irregularity of the Epitome, relative to the divine correspondences of the first two planets included in the list of five, has been corrected to adapt the epithets of the planets Faiuou and Faethou to Saturn and Jupiter

Les genealogies de Ferecides d’Atenes : entre raó i mite

Un factor rellevant en el desenvolupament de la raó historiogràfica és la configuració genealògica de les obres dels primers logògrafs. Amb les full genealogies que connecten l’spatium mythicum amb el passat més immediat, Ferecides d’Atenes sembla dur a terme un pas endavant respecte dels Catàlegs hesiòdics o d’Acusilau d’Argos. Però amb l’emergència de la nova historiografia, i l’interès per l’spatium historicum, les genealogies de Ferecides queden relegades a la tradició mitogràfica.The genealogical form used by early Greek logographoi plays a major role in the development of historiographic reason. By tracing ‘full genealogies’ that link the spatium mythicum to the immediate past, Pherecydes of Athens seems to take a step forward, compared to the Hesiodic Katalogoi or Acusilaus. However, subsequent historiography, with its interest in the spatium historicum, relegates Pherecidean genealogies to the mythographic tradition
