Property and cross-border couples from the perspective of European regulation
2021
The family property regimes constitute a relevant sector of the EU regulatory framework strongly connected with fundamental rights policies. Family property offers specific issues which need to balance individual rights with general interests, especially in matter of real estate property. The fragmentation of the discipline in EU Family law, the diversity of the domestic rules regarding rights in rem requires a large use of flexibility from EU legislator and EU legal professionals. The discipline provides by EU Regulations 1103 and 1104/2016 could be an interesting example to manage cross-border couple?s interests: the principles of universality and unity have to be used appropriately and, …
Caracalla e i Parti in Erodiano: fra disegno ecumenico e inganno
2020
La storia degli studi ha molto dibattuto sul progetto di matrimonio fra Caracalla e la figlia di Artabano, tramandata da Cassio Dione ed Erodiano, interrogandosi sulla sua veridicità con particolare riguardo alla versione di Erodiano, sulle motivazioni e sul contesto della successiva campagna partica allestita dall’imperatore. Una rilettura delle fonti mette in luce come la ricostruzione storica di Erodiano, di là dall’innegabile componente inventiva, doveva riflettere motivi utilizzati da Caracalla nella comunicazione ufficiale e ispirati al tema dell’ecumenismo, e al tempo stesso plasmare in termini fortemente ostili un’immagine dell’operato imperiale caratterizzato da slealtà e inganno, …
Physics beyond colliders at CERN: beyond the Standard Model working group report
2019
The Physics Beyond Colliders initiative is an exploratory study aimed at exploiting the full scientific potential of the CERN's accelerator complex and scientific infrastructures through projects complementary to the LHC and other possible future colliders. These projects will target fundamental physics questions in modern particle physics. This document presents the status of the proposals presented in the framework of the Beyond Standard Model physics working group, and explore their physics reach and the impact that CERN could have in the next 10–20 years on the international landscape.
Museums as disseminators of niche knowledge: Universality in accessibility for all
2019
Accessibility has faced several challenges within audiovisual translation Studies and gained great opportunities for its establishment as a methodologically and theoretically well-founded discipline. Initially conceived as a set of services and practices that provides access to audiovisual media content for persons with sensory impairment, today accessibility can be viewed as a concept involving more and more universality thanks to its contribution to the dissemination of audiovisual products on the topic of marginalisation. Against this theoretical backdrop, accessibility is scrutinised from the perspective of aesthetics of migration and minorities within the field of the visual arts in mu…
Precision measurement of the ratio of the charged kaon leptonic decay rates
2013
A precision measurement of the ratio RK of the rates of kaon leptonic decays K+- --> e nu and K+- --> mu nu with the full data sample collected by the NA62 experiment at CERN in 2007-2008 is reported. The result, obtained by analysing ~150000 reconstructed K+- --> e nu candidates with 11% background contamination, is RK = (2.488+-0.010)*10^{-5}, in agreement with the Standard Model expectation.
Hadronic τ Decays as New Physics Probes in the LHC Era
2019
We analyze the sensitivity of hadronic tau decays to non-standard interactions within the model-independent framework of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT). Both exclusive and inclusive decays are studied, using the latest lattice data and QCD dispersion relations. We show that there are enough theoretically clean channels to disentangle all the effective couplings contributing to these decays, with the $\tau \to \pi\pi\nu_\tau$ channel representing an unexpected powerful New Physics probe. We find that the ratios of non-standard couplings to the Fermi constant are bound at the sub-percent level. These bounds are complementary to the ones from electroweak precision observable…
Protein crystallization: universal thermodynamic vs. specific effects of PEG
2008
The interest of nucleation of protein crystals and aggregates (including oligomerization) spans from basic physics theory all the way to biophysics, nanophysics, clinical sciences, biotechnologies, food technologies and polymer–solvent interactions. Understanding nucleation within a theoretical framework capable of providing quantitative predictions and control of nucleation rates, or even the very occurrence of crystallization, is a long-sought goal of remarkable relevance to each of the above fields. A large amount of work has been aimed at such goal, but success has been so far rather limited. Work at our laboratory has more recently highlighted a direct link between nucleation rates and…
Update on the b→s anomalies
2019
We present a brief update of our model-independent analyses of the b->s data presented in the articles published in Phys. Rev. D96 (2017) 095034 and Phys. Rev. D98 (2018) 095027 based on new data on R_K by LHCb, on R_{K^*} by Belle, and on B_{s,d}-> mu^+ mu^- by ATLAS.
Search for heavy neutrinos in \(\pi ^{ + } \to \mu ^{ + }\nu \) decay and status of lepton universality test in the PIENU experiment
2019
International audience; In the present work of the PIENU experiment, heavy neutrinos were sought in pion decays \(\pi ^{ + } \to \mu ^{ + }\nu \). No evidence for extra peak was found in the muon kinetic energy spectrum and 90% confidence level upper limits were set on the neutrino mixing matrix \(|U_{\mu i}|^{2}\) in the mass range of 15.7 to 33.8 MeV/c^2, improving an order of magnitude over previous experiments. Current status of lepton universality test is also reported.
Importancia del Trabajo Social como forma de intervención municipal
2011
Trascurridos 30 años de la puesta en marcha del Sistema Público de Servicios Sociales, procede destacar el protagonismo desarrollado por los ayuntamientos que han sido el referente más significativo de la implantación del Sistema por su compromiso institucional en el desarrollo de los Servicios Sociales Generales Básicos, potenciando las Unidades de Trabajo Social en todos los municipios, lo que ha hecho visible para la ciudadanía, tanto las potencialidades de los Servicios Sociales, como sus déficits. Hoy se puede afirmar que las/los ciudadanas/os reclaman de los Servicios Sociales el mismo enfoque que perciben la Sanidad o la Educación, como pilares del Estado de Bienestar y se exige que …
