Las contiendas musicales de Apolo
2014
ABSTRACT: This article studies the contemporizing of the ethical and social connotations ascribed to string and wind instruments by the Grecolatin tradition that Hispanic Emblematics carried out in the 16th and 17th centuries. This is most evident in the depiction of the legend of Apollo in his respective musical competitions against Marsyas and Pan. This contemporizing of the legends allows us to perceive the political, social and religious dimensions that these musical contests acquire in the Hispanic World. KEYWORDS: Apollo, Marsyas, Pan, Midas, Cithern, Lyre, Aulos, Vihuela , Guitar. RESUMEN: Se examina la actualizacion llevada a cabo por la emblematica hispana de los siglos XVI y XVII …
Lo studio della scultura romana come strumento di conoscenza dell’antico in Luigi Ferdinando Marsili: la Dissertazione sopra la Tavola Annonaria
2016
La Dissertazione sopra la Tavola Annonaria è un saggio nel quale lo scienziato Luigi Ferdinando Marsili (1658-1730) descrisse un rilievo di età romana di sua proprietà, raffigurante scene relative alla produzione del pane. Si tratta di un testo che non era ancora stato esaminato a fondo nella sua interezza. Attraverso un’analisi serrata, ricca di rimandi alle testimonianze letterarie e di confronti con altre opere di scultura romane, Marsili dimostra il suo interesse per il mondo antico e il metodo rigoroso che applicava nei suoi studi.
Ecology and technological capability of lactic acid bacteria isolated during Grillo grape vinification in the Marsala production area
2011
Grapes of the “Grillo” variety, used to produce Marsala wine, were harvested from five vineyards with different climatic and agronomic parameters, in order to obtain a first mapping of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) inhabiting the production area. Marsala base wine production was followed at a large-scale, and also two experimental vinifications, with different lysozyme and SO2 concentrations and in combination, were carried out at pilot-plant scale. LAB communities and conventional chemical parameters were periodically analysed. LAB were found on grapes at an average concentration of about 102 CFU g−1 which decreased during the transformation process. A total of 146 colonies were collected, bu…

Evolucion paleoambiental desde el Holoceno temprano hasta la actualidad del marjal de Almenara (Mediterráneo occidental)
2018
The main aim of this study is to characterize the different stages in the palaeoenvironmental evolution of the Almenara marsh, Spain, from the early Holocene to the present day. This marsh is one of the most important in Castellón province. Five cores extracted from the marsh underwent sedimentological analysis, micropalaeontological study (foraminifera, ostracods and gastropods) and 14C dating. The results show that before the maximum transgression of the Mediterranean during the Marine Isotope Stage 1 (5500 cal yr. BP dating in the Almenara marsh), the area was occupied by a brackish marsh (prior to the 8.2 ka event). During the middle Holocene, the regional sea level rise and later stabi…
Pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry of soil organic matter extracted from a Brazilian mangrove and Spanish salt marshes
2009
The soil organic matter (SOM) extracted under different vegetation types from a Brazilian mangrove (Pai Matos Island, São Paulo State) and from three Spanish salt marshes (Betanzos Ría and Corrubedo Natural Parks, Galícia, and the Albufera Natural Park, Valencia) was investigated by pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS). The chemical variation was larger in SOM from the Spanish marshes than in the SOM of the Brazilian mangroves, possibly because the marshes included sites with both tidal and nontidal variation, whereas the mangrove forest underwent just tidal variation. Thus, plant-derived organic matter was better preserved under permanently anoxic environments. Moreove…
CHARACTERIZATION OF RUBBERIZED ASPHALT FOR RAILWAY SUB-BALLASTS
Tesi di dottorato sotto la supervisione del professore Gaetano di Mino del Dipartimento di Ingegneria Civile di Palermo), come borsista Marie-Curie all'interno del progetto SUPRITN 2013/2017. Il mio lavoro e la linea della ricerca riguarda i conglomerati bituminosi con granulato di gomma per lo strato di sub-ballast nelle linee ferroviarie. L’attività di ricerca comprende il mix-design dell’asfalto con aggiunta di gomma, la caratterizzazione e le prestazioni per la ferrovia in termini di comportamento meccanico e lo smorzamento delle vibrazioni. In particolare con l’avvento dell’alta velocità, diversi studi hanno evidenziato ottime caratteristiche fisico-meccaniche per ciò che riguarda il c…
Extracting science from Mössbauer spectroscopy on Mars
2003
[1] Deployment by the Mars Exploration Rovers of backscatter Mossbauer spectrometers offers an incredible opportunity to (1) elucidate the iron mineralogies of rocks, soils, and atmospheric dust and (2) gain insight into the physical event by which the mineralogy came into existence and consequently acquire information having potential for yielding ancient planetary history relevant to broad issues including the question of life. Determining the mineralogy is done by subjecting raw data to reduction algorithms and generating products known as Mossbauer parameters, which are highly characteristic. Mixed mineralogies are treated through deconvolution. Through being able to exploit Mossbauer m…
Nickel on Mars: Constraints on meteoritic material at the surface
2006
[1] Impact craters and the discovery of meteorites on Mars indicate clearly that there is meteoritic material at the Martian surface. The Alpha Particle X-ray Spectrometers (APXS) on board the Mars Exploration Rovers measure the elemental chemistry of Martian samples, enabling an assessment of the magnitude of the meteoritic contribution. Nickel, an element that is greatly enhanced in meteoritic material relative to samples of the Martian crust, is directly detected by the APXS and is observed to be geochemically mobile at the Martian surface. Correlations between nickel and other measured elements are used to constrain the quantity of meteoritic material present in Martian soil and sedimen…
