Exploring gravity

Berry, Christopher P. L. January 2014 (has links)
Gravitation is the dominant influence in most astrophysical interactions. Weak-field interactions have been extensively studied, but the strong-field regime remains largely unexplored. Gravitational waves (GWs) are an excellent means of accessing strong-field regions. We investigate what we can learn about both astrophysics and gravitation from strong-field tests and, in particular, GWs; we focus upon extreme-mass-ratio (EMR) systems where a small body orbits a much more massive one. EMR bursts, a particular class of GW signals, could be used to determine the properties of massive black holes (MBHs). They could be detectable with a space-borne interferometer from many nearby galaxies, as well as the Galactic centre. Bursts could provide insightful constraints on the MBHs' parameters. These could elucidate the formation history of the MBHs and, by association, their host galaxies. The Galactic centre is the most promising source. Its event rate is determined by the stellar distribution surrounding the MBH; the rate is not high, but we still expect to gain useful astronomical information from bursts. Strong-field tests may reveal deviations from general relativity (GR). We calculate modifications that could be observed assuming metric f(R)-gravity as an effective alternative theory. Gravitational radiation is modified, as are planetary precession rates. Both give a means of testing GR. However, existing laboratory measurements already place tighter constraints on f(R)-gravity, unless there exists a screening effect, such as the chameleon mechanism, which suppresses modifications on small scales. To make precision measurements of astrophysical systems or place exacting bounds on deviations from GR, we must have accurate GW templates. Transient resonances are currently not included in the prescription for generating EMR inspiral waveforms. Their effects can be estimated from asymptotic expansions of the evolving orbital parameters. The quantitative impact on parameter estimation has yet to be calculated, but it appears that it shall be necessary to incorporate resonances when creating inspiral waveforms.

Statuskod 451 ur ett IT-organisationsperspektiv : En explorative kvalitativ studie / Error code 451 from an IT-organizational perspective : An explorative qualitative study

Al Amin, Jasin January 2019 (has links)
I takt med att internetinfrastrukturen växer har internet fått en allt större betydelse för människors liv och vardag. Vilket har orsakat ett problem för brottsförebyggande myndigheter och IT-organisationer att justera vad som är lagligt och olagligt på Internet då det inte existera rätt verktyg för justeringar. Tidigare forskning är framtagna ur ett allmänt perspektiv. Detta har medfört att blockera webbsidor i dagsläget är en utmaning då det inte finns något tekniskt stöd i form av http kod i Sverige, utan bara lagar och regler som ger anvisningar för ITorganisationerna. Med detta i åtanke blev det intressant att undersöka hur det allmänna perspektivet kan stödja Sveriges kamp mot illegala webbsidor. Frågeställningarna för denna studie är: Hur kan Sverige motverka och förebygga illegala webbsidor med och utan statuskod 451 och vilken arbetsgång/besultsprocess kan rekommenderas för svenska förhållanden för att motverka illegala webbsidor? Framtagningen av empiri har gjorts med hjälp av att intervjua berörda aktörer som rör området internet, det vill säga en internetleverantör, en expert om statuskoden 451 samt en person som har nyckel till .Se och .Nu. Det studien har kommit fram till är att det kommer vara en utmaning för Sveriges kamp mot illegala webbsidor, tills man har åtgärdat de juridiska grunderna för statuskod 451. Då de juridiska grunderna ligger i grunden till hur beslutsprocessen ska gå till när man ska geoblockera webbsidor, därefter kan man fördela rollerna i processen för ISP och webbhotellen samt brottsförebyggande myndigheterna. Skulle Sverige inte använda sig av statuskoden 451, kan man använda sig av tre olika metoder. Den första metoden är att varje land i världen samarbetar så att man förhindrar att webbsidorna dyker på Internet igen. Den andra metoden är att det bör finnas starkare samband och förklaring mellan brottsförebyggande myndigheterna om ISP och webbhotellens om deras roller. Sista metoden är att enbart webbhotellen och ISP är noga med att se till att varje kund verkligen följer upp villkoren. När d

No. of bitstreams: 1 Tatiana Machado Boulhosa.pdf: 6122608 bytes, checksum: cbfa6abf071d40e1644a01f624034058 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2009-11-04 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / The aim of this dissertation is to discuss comparatively the construction of the concept of sainthood based on two distinct works: The Life of St Columba, written by Adomnán, abbot of Iona, in the last decades of the 7th century and The Life of St Columban, written by Jonas of Bobbio, in the mid-7th century. In both cases it is the pursuit of the image of sainthood that gives the narrative its primary sense; therefore they can and in fact are referred to as hagiographies. However, their history cannot be fully understood if the wider context is not first comprehended. Therefore, this dissertation opens up with a sketch of the surrounding events that made them possible, that is to say, Celtic Christianity. We also aim to point out the various interpretations surrounding the phenomenon and its implications in the final shaping of a theoretical model of Medieval monastic Saints: illuminated men, withdrawn from society, capable of articulating under their wings a great number of followers, whose power flowed from their example and illustration. Such people represent part of the Medieval Imaginary, articulators of its mentality, translators in deeds as well as in words of the ways in which Medieval Society saw the world: an eternal struggle to be worthy of God´s love. Entwined both with History and Sociology, such model becomes part of the Religious Studies and ends up guiding the reading of the mentioned hagiographies, helping us understand the role these monks played during the first centuries of Christianity, not only as spiritual but also as political leaders / O objetivo dessa dissertação é discutir, de forma comparada, a construção do conceito de santidade baseado em duas obras distintas: The Life of St Columba, escrita por Adomnán, abade de Iona, nas últimas décadas do século VII e The Life of St Columban, escrita por Jonas de Bobbio, em meados do século VII. Em ambos os casos, é a busca da imagem de santidade que dá às narrativas seu sentido primário; portanto, elas podem e, de fato, devem ser chamadas de hagiografias. Entretanto, sua história não pode ser completamente entendida se o contexto mais amplo não for também compreendido. Desta forma, essa dissertação se inicia com um apanhado dos eventos ao redor desses santos que tornaram as narrativas possíveis; a saber, o Cristianismo Celta. Também objetivamos apontar as várias interpretações ao redor do fenômeno e suas implicações na forma final de um modelo teórico de santos monásticos medievais: homens iluminados, retirados da sociedade, capazes de articular sob seu domínio um grande número de seguidores, cujo poder advém de seu exemplo e sua ilustração. Tais pessoas representam parte do imaginário medieval, articuladores de sua mentalidade, tradutores em feito e em palavras das formas pelas quais a sociedade medieval vê o mundo: uma eterna luta pelo direito ao amor Divino. Imbricado entre a História e a Sociologia, tal modelo se torna parte das Ciências da Religião e termina por guiar a leitura das ditas hagiografias, ajudando a entender o papel que esses monges desempenharam durante os primeiros séculos do Cristianismo, não apenas como líderes espirituais, mas também políticos

Optimisation de la gestion des avions dans un aéroport : affectation aux points de stationnement, routage au sol et ordonnancement à la piste. / Optimization of airport operations : stand allocation, ground routing and runway sequencing

Guepet, Julien 03 December 2015 (has links)
Le cadre de cette thèse est l'optimisation des opérations aéroportuaires. Nous nous intéressons à trois problèmes de gestion des avions dans un aéroport : l'affectation aux points de stationnement, le routage au sol entre les pistes et les points de stationnement, et l'ordonnancement des décollages et des atterrissages.Ce travail a été réalisée en collaboration étroite avec la société Amadeus. Nos approches ont été testées et validées avec des données réelles provenant d'aéroports européens.Nous proposons une formulation en Programme Linéaire en Nombres Entiers (PLNE) du problème d'affectation aux points de stationnement. Nous montrons que trouver une affectation réalisable est un problème NP-Complet et nous proposons diverses améliorations visant à réduire le temps de résolution de notre modèle. Nous obtenons ainsi des solutions de meilleure qualité que celles de la littérature, tout en conservant un temps de calcul raisonnable.Le problème de routage au sol est modélisé en adaptant un PLNE de la littérature. Nous montrons que les indicateurs de l'industrie sont en contradiction avec l'objectif de réduction du temps de roulage, et donc des émissions de pollutions. Nous proposons de nouveaux indicateurs basés sur l'heure de décollage, et non sur l'heure de départ du point de stationnement.Enfin, nous nous intéressons à l'intégration de l'ordonnancement à la piste avec le routage au sol. Nous montrons qu'une meilleure intégration permet de réduire le temps de roulage et d'améliorer la gestion de la piste. Nous proposons une heuristique séquentielle basée sur une modélisation en PLNE innovante du problème d'ordonnancement à la piste. Nous montrons que cette heuristique fournit des solutions de bonne qualité en temps raisonnable, contrairement à l'approche exacte de la littérature. / In this thesis, we address the optimization of aircraft ground operations at airports, focusing on three main optimization problems: the stand allocation, the ground routing between stands and runways, and the sequencing of take-offs and landings.These works result from a close collaboration with Amadeus. Our approaches have been tested and validated with real data from European airports.The stand allocation problem is formulated as a Mixed Integer Program (MIP). We show that finding an allocation plan respecting operational requirements is NP-Complete and we strengthen our model in several directions. We obtain better solutions than the literature withing reasonable computation times for an industrial application.The ground routing problem is modeled by a MIP formulation adapted from the literature. We show that the main indicators of the industry are in contradiction with the objective of reducing taxi times and therefore air pollution. We propose new indicators based on take-off times instead of push back times.Lastly, we focus on the integration of the runway sequencing with the ground routing. We highlight that a better integration allows to reduce taxi times while improving the management of the runway. We propose a sequential heuristic based on an innovative MIP formulation of the runway sequencing problem. This heuristic is shown to provide high quality solutions in reasonable computation times, unlike the exact approach from the literature.

Chaos dynamique dans le problème à trois corps restreint / Dynamical chaos in the restricted three body problem

Rollin, Guillaume 02 November 2015 (has links)
Capture-évolution-éjection de particules par des systèmes binaires (étoile-planète, étoile binaire, étoile-trou noir supermassif, trou noir binaire, ...). Dans une première partie, en utilisant une généralisation de l'application de Kepler, nous décrivons, au travers du cas de 1P/Halley, la dynamique chaotique des comètes dans le système solaire. Le système binaire, alors considéré, est composé du Soleil et de Jupiter. L'application symplectique utilisée permet de rendre compte des différentes caractéristiques de la dynamique : trajectoires chaotiques, îlots invariants de KAM associés aux résonances avec le mouvement orbital de Jupiter,... Nous avons déterminé de façon exacte et semi-analytique l'énergie échangée (fonction kick) entre le système solaire et la comète de Halley à chaque passage au périhélie. Cette fonction kick est la somme des contributions des problèmes à trois corps Soleil-planète-comète associés aux 8 planètes du système solaire. Nous avons montré que chacune de ces contributions peut être décomposée en un terme keplerien associé au potentiel gravitationnel de la planète et un terme dipolaire dû au mouvement du soleil autour du centre de masse du système solaire. Dans une deuxième partie, nous avons utilisé la généralisation de l'application de Kepler pour étudier la capture de particules de matière noire au sein des systèmes binaires. La section efficace de capture a été calculée et montre que la capture à longue portée est bien plus efficace que la capture due aux rencontres proches. Nous montrons également l'importance de la vitesse de rotation du système binaire dans le processus de capture. Notamment, un système binaire en rotation ultrarapide accumulera en son sein une densité de matière jusqu'à 10^4 fois celle du flot de matière le traversant. Dans la dernière partie, en intégrant les équations du mouvement du problème à trois corps restreint plan, nous avons étudié l'éjection des particules capturées par un système binaire. Dans le cas d'un système binaire dont les deux corps sont de masses comparables, alors que la majorité des particules sont éjectées immédiatement, nous montrons, sur les sections de Poincaré, que la trace des particules restant indéfiniment aux abords du système binaire forme une structure fractale caractéristique d'un répulseur étrange associé à un système chaotique ouvert. Cette structure fractale, également présente dans l'espace réel, a une forme de spirale à deux bras partageant des similitudes avec les structures spiralées des galaxies comme la nôtre. / This work is devoted to the study of the restricted 3-body problem and particularly to the capture-evolution-ejection process of particles by binary systems (star-planet, binary star, star-supermassive black hole, binary black hole, ...). First, using a generalized Kepler map, we describe, through the case of 1P/Halley, the chaotic dynamics of comets in the Solar System. The here considered binary system is the couple Sun-Jupiter. The symplectic application we use allows us to depict the main characteristics of the dynamics: chaotic trajectories, KAM islands associated to resonances with Jupiter orbital motion, ... We determine exactly and semi-analytically the exchange of energy (kick function) between the Solar System and 1P/Halley at its passage at perihelion. This kick function is the sum of the contributions of 3-body problems Sun-planet-comet associated to the eight planets. We show that each one of these contributions can be split in a keplerian term associated to the planet gravitational potential and a dipolar term due to the Sun movement around Solar System center of mass. We also use the generalized Kepler map to study the capture of dark matter particles by binary systems. We derive the capture cross section showing that long range capture is far more efficient than close encounter induced capture. We show the importance of the rotation velocity of the binary in the capture process. Particularly, a binary system with an ultrafast rotation velocity accumulates a density of captured matter up to 10^4 times the density of the incoming flow of matter. Finally, by direct integration of the planar restricted 3-body problem equations of motion, we study the ejection of particles initially captured by a binary system. In the case of a binary with two components of comparable masses, although almost all the particles are immediately ejected, we show, on Poincaré sections, that the trace of remaining particles in the vicinity of the binary form a fractal structure associated to a strange repeller associated to chaotic open systems. This fractal structure, also present in real space, has a shape of two arm spiral sharing similarities with spiral structures observed in galaxies such as the Milky Way.
