From cuprates to manganites: spin and orbital liquids

Kilian, Rolf 05 July 1999 (has links) (PDF)
Both cuprates and manganites belong to the transition metal oxides. The physics of these compounds is characterized by a dualism of local electron interaction and itinerant charge motion. In the present work, several key issues of metallic cuprates and manganites are addressed on a theoretical level, while close connection to recent experimental work is kept. The work is based on the notion of spin and orbital liquids, representing elegant tools to handle the strongly correlated nature of the metallic state in an efficient and transparent manner. A concise introduction to the physics of cuprates and manganites as well as to the methods employed is presented at the beginning of the work. In a subsequent part, we show that the peculiar magnetic response of metallic cuprates upon impurity doping can be successfully explained within a spin-liquid picture. The remainder of the work is devoted to the metallic state of manganites. Elaborating on the notion of an orbital liquid, the interplay of electron correlations, orbital degeneracy, and double exchange is studied. Thereby, the unconventionally large incoherent optical spectrum of metallic manganites and the pronounced softening of the magnon spectrum observed in experiment can be explained. Finally, a theory of the metal-insulator transition of manganites is presented which is based upon the newly introduced notion of orbital polarons. In general, we believe the close agreement of our results with experiment to strongly support the validity of our approach, giving new insight into the spectacular and sometimes as-tonishing physics of transition metal oxides.

Μοντελοποίηση ανοιχτής αρχιτεκτονικής για επικοινωνία ιατρικών απεικονιστικών εξετάσεων με βάση το πρωτόκολλο WADO του DICOM

Κουτελάκης, Γεώργιος 25 January 2010 (has links)
Η διατριβή εισάγει μια νέα ανοιχτή αρχιτεκτονική για επικοινωνία ιατρικών απεικονιστικών εξετάσεων, η οποία παρουσιάζεται μέσω ενός νέου PACS-ιστού που εστιάζει στην τηλεακτινολογία. Η προτεινόμενη αρχιτεκτονική είναι βασισμένη στις αρχές της επέκτασης ιστού του DICOM που είναι η υπηρεσία/πρωτόκολλο WADO (Πρόσβαση μέσω Ιστού σε Επίμονα Στοιχεία Εξέτασης DICOM). Η αρχιτεκτονική ενσωματώνει υπηρεσίες DICOM και κοινές υπηρεσίες Διαδικτύου (βασισμένες στον ιστό, στο FTP, και στο ηλεκτρονικό ταχυδρομείο). Η διατριβή επίσης επεκτείνει την δυνατότητα πρόσβασης της WADO σε ολόκληρη την ιεραρχία DICOM (Ασθενής, Διαγνωστική Εξέταση, Σειρά Εξέτασης και Στοιχείο Εξέτασης). Η επέκταση της WADO καλείται WADA (Πρόσβαση μέσω Ιστού σε Συστήματα Αρχειοθέτησης DICOM). Σε αντιδιαστολή με τη WADO, η WADA περιλαμβάνει ένα πρόσθετο εσωτερικό μηχανισμό αναζήτησης και υποστηρίζει την υποβολή ιατρικής διάγνωσης. Το σύνολο των προτεινόμενων υπηρεσιών υποστηρίζει την εκτεταμένη πρόσβαση και είναι ενσωματωμένο σε μια δομή τριών επιπέδων (πελάτη, εξυπηρετητή και δεδομένων) που εξασφαλίζει ευελιξία πρόσβασης, κινητικότητα χρηστών και ενισχυμένη ασφάλεια δεδομένων. Η πλευρά των εξυπηρετητών της αρχιτεκτονικής παρέχει διεπαφές των υπηρεσιών μέσω ιστού και διασφαλισμένο χώρο προσωρινής αποθήκευσης που καλείται Περιοχές Χρηστών. Η παρούσα διατριβή μελετά επίσης υποδομή υπολογιστικού πλέγματος για την αρχιτεκτονική του PACS-ιστού και ένα συνεργατικό σχήμα μεταξύ PACS και RIS για ολοκληρωμένη διαχείριση απεικονιστικών εξετάσεων μέσω ιστού. Η προτεινόμενη αρχιτεκτονική υλοποιήθηκε πιλοτικά κυρίως με τεχνολογίες βασισμένες σε Java και προϊόντα συμβατά με πρότυπα. Η υλοποιημένη αρχιτεκτονική αξιολογήθηκε από μηχανικούς σε συνεργασία με ιατρούς. / The dissertation introduces a new open architecture for medical imaging communication illustrating a novel web Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS), which focuses on teleradiology. The proposed architecture is based on the concept of the web extension of Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine (DICOM) that is the Web Access to DICOM Persistent Objects (WADO) protocol/service. The architecture integrates DICOM services and common Internet services (based on web, FTP, and e-mail). The dissertation also extends WADO access capability to the whole DICOM hierarchy (Patient, Study, Series and Object). The extended WADO is called Web Access to DICOM Archives (WADA). WADA, as opposed to WADO, includes an extra internal query mechanism and support of medical reports submission. The whole of the proposed services support the extended access and are integrated into a three-tier structure (client, server and data tiers) which ensures flexibility in access, user mobility and enhanced data security. The server site of the architecture provides service interfaces through web and invulnerable space for temporary storage, called as User Domains. This dissertation also studies a computing grid infrastructure for the web PACS architecture and a cooperative scheme between PACS and Radiology Information System (RIS) for integrated administration of imaging examinations through web. The proposed architecture is pilot implemented using mainly Java-based technologies and standard-compliant products. Τhe implemented architecture is evaluated by engineers in collaboration with doctors.

Caracterização dos docentes do curso de qualificação de Agente Comunitário de Saúde de Mato Grosso / Characterization of the teachers of qualification of the Community Health Agent of Mato Grosso

Duarte, Nilene January 2009 (has links)
Made available in DSpace on 2011-05-04T12:36:26Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2009 / Este estudo objetivou analisar o corpo docente do Curso de qualificação de Agentes Comunitários de Saúde do Estado de Mato Grosso, por meio da Escola de Saúde Pública de Mato Grosso esta iniciativa verificando a pertinência e adequação daqueles que foram responsáveis por esta capacitação no estado. No referencial teórico percorremos a trajetória das transformações econômicas e socioculturais vivenciadas no cenário brasileiro nas últimas décadas que estimularam a reorganização do sistema de saúde do país e no estado de Mato Grosso. A opção metodológica adotada foi de estudo descritivo tendo como foco a análise das características gerais e específicas dos docentes que atuaram na Regional de Saúde da Baixada Cuiabana no período entre 2006 e 2008. O estudo com a perspectiva de subsidiar a reformulação da Política de Formação profissional executada pela Escola de Saúde Pública de Mato Grosso. Evidenciou-se que o quadro de docentes, em sua totalidade, é composto por enfermeiros que atuam nas Equipes de Saúde da Família. O maior contingente é constituído de mulheres, estão na faixa etária de 30 e 50 anos; residem em sua maioria em Cuiabá. Observa-se à ausência de envolvimento dos profissionais médicos também responsável pela capacitação / qualificação dos Agentes. O maior contingente de docentes tem mais de 11 anos de formado, com qualificação (pós-graduação) em saúde pública e poucos na área da Saúde da Família, possuem vinculo de trabalho com as Secretarias Municipais de Saúde, através de contratos temporários caracterizando a precarização do trabalho. O vinculo de trabalho com a Escola se deu de forma informal. O duplo vínculo é uma característica muito comum, a atividade docente acaba por ser exercida em condições pouco favoráveis (nas brechas das jornadas de trabalho), estão motivados pela necessidade de complementação salarial. Contudo acredita-se que a maioria dos docentes utiliza os critérios de avaliação compatível com Projeto Político Pedagógico da Escola de Saúde Pública de Mato Grosso. / This study aimed at analyzing the teaching staff of the Training Course for Health Community Agents of the State of Mato Grosso, through the Public Health School of Mato Grosso. This initiative verified the pertinence and adequacy of those who were responsible for this training in the state. In the theoretical referential we followed the path of the economic and socio-cultural changes in the Brazilian scenery in the last decades that fostered the reorganization of the health system of the country and in the State of Mato Grosso. The methodological option adopted was that of a descriptive study focusing on the analysis of the general and specific characteristics of the teachers that worked in the Health District System of Baixada Cuiabana from 2006 to 2008. The study with the perspective of helping in the reformulation of the Professional Upbringing Policy was carried out by the Public Health School of Mato Grosso. It was shown that the teacher`s staff in its whole, is composed by nurses that work in the Family Health Teams. Most of them are women that live in Cuiabá with ages ranging from 30 and 50 years. The absence of the involvement of the doctors that are also responsible for the qualification/training of the Agents is observed. Most of the teachers finished their graduation course more than eleven years ago, and had their postgraduation in Public Health and few in the Family Health area, are linked to the Health Departments, through temporary contracts showing how the job is precarious. The employment relation with the school occurred in an informal way. The double employment linkage is a very common characteristic, in the end, the teaching activity is performed in unfavorable conditions (when they are not working), and they are motivated by the need for adding more money to the salary. Yet, it is believed that most of the teachers use the evaluation criteria compatible with the Pedagogical Political Project of the Public Health School of Mato Grosso.

Same-Sex Parent Families in France: Past, Present, and Future

Griffin, Janna Lee 05 1900 (has links)
This thesis contains four chapters. The first chapter gives an overview of the current situation concerning same-sex parent families in France. This involves discussions of the PACS (Pacte civil de solidarité), adoption, and marriage, as well as the societal influences that caused the massive negative response to the Taubira law. The second chapter goes into more detail concerning portrayals of homosexuality in French media throughout the years. There is a focus, however, on one of the earliest portrayals of lesbianism in French literature: The Nun by Diderot. Lastly, the third chapter involves further explanation of the history of homosexuality and same-sex parent families. This chapter explores these ideas specifically in the context of French history, as well as how conditions for same-sex parent families have changed in recent years. The fourth and final chapter presents conclusions of the research.

Les dates de naissance des créances / Dates of origination of claims

Noirot, Renaud 28 November 2013 (has links)
C’est le droit des entreprises en difficulté qui a permis de mettre en évidence la complexité que pouvait revêtir la détermination de la date de naissance des créances. Or, celle-ci apparaît fondamentale en droit privé. Constituant le critère d’application de certains mécanismes juridiques, elle incarne l’existence de la créance et représente dès lors un enjeu pour toute règle de droit ayant celle-ci pour objet ou pour condition. Deux courants doctrinaux s’opposent, la thèse classique fixe la date de naissance au stade de la formation du contrat, tandis que des thèses modernes la fixent au stade de l’exécution du contrat. La thèse matérialiste, fondée sur le droit des entreprises en difficultés, fait naître la créance de prix au fur et à mesure de l’exécution de la contre-prestation. La thèse périodique, reposant sur une réflexion doctrinale quant aux contrats à exécution successive, fait renaître toutes les créances du contrat à chaque période contractuelle. L’examen des thèses moderne à l’aune des mécanismes juridique qui ne peuvent qu’incarner la véritable date de naissance de l’authentique créance aboutit à leur invalidité. La thèse classique se trouve donc à nouveau consacrée. Mais la résistance que lui oppose le droit des entreprises en difficulté ne peut reposer sur la technique d’une fiction juridique, car d’autres manifestations du même phénomène peuvent être mises en évidence en dehors de ce domaine. Un changement de paradigme s’impose donc pour résoudre le hiatus. Derrière ce phénomène persistant se cache en réalité une autre vision, une autre conception de la créance, la créance économique qui vient s’articuler avec la créance juridique dans le système de droit privé pour le compléter. La dualité des dates de naissance recèle donc en son sein une dualité du concept de créance lui-même, la créance juridique classique et la créance économique. La créance économique n’est pas un droit subjectif personnel. Elle n’est pas la créance juridique. Elle n’est pas autonome de la créance juridique et ne doit pas être confondue avec une créance née d’un cas d’enrichissement sans cause. La créance économique représente la valeur produite par le contrat au fur et à mesure de l’exécution de sa prestation caractéristique. Elle permet de corriger l’application ordinaire du concept de créance juridique par en assurant la fonction de corrélation des produits et des charges d’un bien ou d’une activité. Ses domaines d’application sont divers. Outre son utilisation dans les droits comptable et fiscal, la créance économique permet la détermination de la quotité cédée dans le cadre d’une cession de contrat, la détermination du gage constitué par un patrimoine d’affectation dans le cadre de la communauté légale, de l’EIRL ou encore de la fiducie, ainsi que la détermination du passif exempté de la discipline d’une procédure collective. Dans ces domaines, ce n’est donc pas la date de naissance de la créance juridique qui s’applique, mais la date de naissance de la créance économique. La cohérence du système de droit privé se trouve donc ainsi restaurée quant à la date de naissance de la créance. / It is the laws governing companies experiencing difficulties which have revealed the complexity of determining the dates of the origination of the claims. And yet this appears to be fundamental in private law. As it constitutes the criterion for implementing certain legal mechanisms, it epitomizes the existence of the claim and hence represents a challenge for any rule of law in which the existence of this claim is a goal or condition. There are two conflicting doctrinal currents: the traditional approach sets the date of origination at the stage of the formation of the contract, while modern approaches situate it at the stage of the execution of the contract. The materialistic approach, based on the law governing companies experiencing difficulties, staggers the origination of the price debt over the period of the execution of the service. The periodical approach, which relies on a doctrinal reflection on successive execution contracts, is that of the re-origination of all the claims under the contract at each contractual period. An examination of the modern approaches, under the auspices of the legal mechanisms which can only epitomize the true date of origination of the authentic claim leads to the invalidity thereof. The traditional approach is therefore once again consecrated. But the resistance constituted by the laws governing companies in difficulty cannot rely on the technique of legal fiction, because other manifestations of the same phenomenon can be identified outside this domain. Therefore, a change of paradigm is in order if the hiatus is to be resolved. Behind this persistent phenomenon lies in fact another vision, another concept of the claim: the economic claim which, interwoven with the legal claim in the private law system, supplements it. The duality of the dates of origination therefore conceals in its bosom the duality of the very concept of a claim, the traditional legal claim and the economic claim. The economic claim is not a subjective personal right. It is not a legal claim. It is not autonomous of the legal claim and must not be confused with a claim originating in a case of unwarranted enrichment. The economic claim represents the value produced by the contract as the service which characterizes it is provided. It permits the rectification of the ordinary application of the concept of legal claim by ensuring the function of correlating the proceeds with the costs of a commodity or an activity. Its domains of application are varied. In addition to its use in accounting and fiscal law, the economic claim permits the determination of the portion transferred in the context of the transfer of a contract, the determination of the collateral consisting in a special-purpose fund in the context of a legal joint estate, a limited liability individual contractor or a trust, as well as the determination of the liabilities which escape the discipline of collective proceedings. In these domains, it is therefore not the date of origination of the legal claim which applies, but the date of origination of the economic claim. The coherence of the private law system is therefore restored as concerns the date of the origination of the claim.
