- Understanding the Problems of the Support of an Endangered Language in Typography: Proposal of a Typeface That Supports the Laz LanguagePublication . Asillazanci, Zeynep; Silva, JoanaThis project addresses the diacritic-based literary problems of the endangered Laz language and has aimed to design a typeface that supports non-Unicode letters in Lazoglu alphabet. In the first part of this project, language erosion has been examined by taking into account the ‘The Atlas of the World’s Language in Danger’ document published by Unesco. On the following part, reference is made to the relation between language and writing, and the evolution of writing and typography. In the third step, history of the Latin-based Laz alphabets is examined from the Soviet era to the formation process of the present Lazoglu Alphabet. The misuse of non-Unicode letters in the Lazoglu alphabet by literate Lazes has been analyzed with utilizing handwriting samples, existed typefaces and printed matters. The design process of the Helimisi typeface is detailed from the early sketches until the digitization of the glyphs with the Glyphs software. Firstly the diacritic alternatives have been designed by taking into account that the form and position of diacritics affect legibility as much as the main form components of the typeface. The project was terminated by making kerning and spacing adjustments after the uppercases, lowercases, punctuation marks and numbers were designed.
- Arquitetos da (co)existência: Uma história da divisão entre a natureza e culturaPublication . Peixoto, Ana; Raposo, AnaArquitetos da (Co)Existência é um projeto que surgiu a partir das questões que permanecem sem resposta unânime, como a questão da origem da vida e se esta é ou não desprovida de sentido e significado. Este projeto toma a natureza como referência, fazendo comparações de carácter anatómico e de significação entre si. É a partir do método de observação do meio que nos envolve, tanto da natureza como da sociedade, que é possível verificar a contínua repetição de padrões. Este projeto procura quebrar a divisão entre a natureza e a cultura, apropriando-se dos elementos e estruturas que a natureza oferece para fazer analogias com as acções diárias do ser humano.
- Search for B-L R -parity-violating top squarks in $\sqrt s$ =13 TeV pp collisions with the ATLAS experimentPublication . ATLAS collaboration (2894 authors); Aguilar-Saavedra, Juan Antonio; Amor Dos Santos, Susana Patricia; Anjos, Nuno; Araque, Juan Pedro; Castro, Nuno Filipe; Conde Muiño, Patricia; Da Cunha Sargedas De Sousa, Mario Jose; Fiolhais, Miguel; Galhardo, Bruno; Gomes, Agostinho; Gonçalo, Ricardo; Jorge, Pedro; Machado Miguens, Joana; Maio, Amélia; Maneira, José; Oleiro Seabra, Luis Filipe; Onofre, António; Pedro, Rute; Santos, Helena; Saraiva, João; Silva, José; Tavares Delgado, Ademar; Veloso, Filipe; Wolters, HelmutA search is presented for the direct pair production of the stop, the supersymmetric partner of the top quark, that decays through an R-parity-violating coupling to a final state with two leptons and two jets, at least one of which is identified as a b-jet. The data set corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb-1 of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of s=13 TeV, collected in 2015 and 2016 by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. No significant excess is observed over the Standard Model background, and exclusion limits are set on stop pair production at a 95% confidence level. Lower limits on the stop mass are set between 600 GeV and 1.5 TeV for branching ratios above 10% for decays to an electron or muon and a b-quark.
