Quale nucleare per l’energia? Energia nucleare e problema morale
2021
Questo XIV Rapporto della Società Geografica Italiana affronta il tema dell’energia, che più di altri, non può essere traguardato dal punto di vista di un solo Paese, dato che basterà riandare alla quantità di implicazioni politiche e militari che, nel corso degli ultimi cent’anni almeno, attorno al controllo delle fonti di energia si sono manifestate in tutte le regioni del globo. Il paragrafo, nello specifico, riguarda l'energia nucleare in Italia. This 14th Report of the Italian Geographic Society addresses the issue of energy, which more than others cannot be addressed from the point of view of a single country, given that it will suffice to go back to the quantity of political and mil…

Incorporazione non riduttiva ed autoreferenzialità causale. Note per una concezione realista del sé nella teoria della coscienza di Antonio Damasio e…
2008
La critica al sostanzialismo ed al solipsismo cartesiani e l'elaborazione di una concezione naturalista ed antisostanzialista della mente hanno storicamente comportato, da David hume al funzionalismo ed alle scienze cognitive contemporanee, l'affermarsi di un atteggiamento eliminativista nei confronti del sè quale si dà ad esempio nella "narrative view" di Daniel Dennett e nella teoria della mente estesa di David Chalmers ed Andy Clark. Scopo di questo saggio è argomentare che la connessione essenziale tra mente e individualità può sopravvivere alla crisi del paradigma cartesiano mediante una rilettura del sè come processo causalmente reale e biologicamente incorporato quale si evince dalla…
Precision electroweak measurements on the Z resonance
2005
We report on the final electroweak measurements performed with data taken at the Z resonance by the experiments operating at the electron-positron colliders SLC and LEP. The data consist of 17 million Z decays accumulated by the ALEPH, DELPHI, L3 and OPAL experiments at LEP, and 600 thousand Z decays by the SLD experiment using a polarised beam at SLC. The measurements include cross-sections, forward-backward asymmetries and polarised asymmetries. The mass and width of the Z boson, $\MZ$ and $\GZ$, and its couplings to fermions, for example the $\rho$ parameter and the effective electroweak mixing angle, are precisely measured. The number of light neutrino species is determined to be 2.9840…
Search for same-sign top-quark production and fourth-generation down-type quarks in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV with the ATLAS detector
2012
A search is presented for same-sign top-quark production and down-type heavy quarks of charge −1/3 in events with two isolated leptons (e or μ) that have the same electric charge, at least two jets and large missing transverse momentum. The data are selected from pp collisions at √s=7TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 1.04 fb−1. The observed data are consistent with expectations from Standard Model processes. Upper limits are set at 95 % confidence level on the cross section of new sources of same-sign top-quark pair production of 1.4-2.0 pb depending on the assumed mediator mass. Upper limits are also set on the pair-production cross-section fo…
First Observation of Top Quark Production in the Forward Region
2015
Top quark production in the forward region in proton-proton collisions is observed for the first time. The W + b final state with W → μν is reconstructed using muons with a transverse momentum, p[subscript T], larger than 25 GeV in the pseudorapidity range 2.0 20 GeV. The results are based on data corresponding to integrated luminosities of 1.0 and 2.0 fb[superscript -1] collected at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV by LHCb. The inclusive top quark production cross sections in the fiducial region are σ(top)[7 TeV] = 239 ± 53(stat) ± 33(syst) ± 24(theory) fb, σ(top)[8 TeV] = 289 ± 43(stat) ± 40(syst) ± 29(theory) fb.These results, along with the observed differential yields and c…
Evidence for the associated production of a W boson and a top quark in ATLAS at √s = 7 TeV
2012
This Letter presents evidence for the associated production of a W boson and a top quark using 2.05 fb[superscript −1] of pp collision data at √s = 7 TeV accumulated with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The analysis is based on the selection of the dileptonic final states with events featuring two isolated leptons, electron or muon, with significant transverse missing momentum and at least one jet. An approach based on boosted decision trees has been developed to improve the discrimination of single top-quark Wt events from background. A template fit to the final classifier distributions is performed to determine the cross-section. The result is incompatible with the background-only hypothes…
Nuevas medidas de emisión de neutrones en la desintegración beta de 85Ge, 85-86As, 91Br, 135Sb, 137-138Te y 138-139-140I
2023
En esta Tesis he determinado de forma experimental la probabilidad de emisión de neutrones en la desintegración β de los núcleos 85Ge,85,86As,91Br,135Sb, 137,138Te y 138,139,140I para los que las medidas previas mostraban errores relativamente altos y/o una gran dispersión. Estos núcleos son de interés 1) en tecnología nuclear, para cálculos de dinámica y control de reactores, 2) en astrofísica nuclear, para cálculos de la abundancia de elementos químicos pesados en el proceso de captura rápida de neutrones, y 3) en el estudio de la estructura de núcleos ricos en neutrones. Así, en este trabajo el énfasis se ha puesto en la mejora de las medidas y el análisis de los datos. Por ello se selec…
Muons in air showers at the Pierre Auger Observatory
2015
We present the first hybrid measurement of the average muon number in air showers at ultrahigh energies, initiated by cosmic rays with zenith angles between 62° and 80°. The measurement is based on 174 hybrid events recorded simultaneously with the surface detector array and the fluorescence detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory. The muon number for each shower is derived by scaling a simulated reference profile of the lateral muon density distribution at the ground until it fits the data. A 1019eV shower with a zenith angle of 67°, which arrives at the surface detector array at an altitude of 1450 m above sea level, contains on average (2.68±0.04±0.48(sys))×107 muons with energies large…
