Intrinsic backgrounds from Rn and Kr in the XENON100 experiment

2018

In this paper, we describe the XENON100 data analyses used to assess the target-intrinsic background sources radon ([InlineMediaObject not available: see fulltext.]), thoron ([InlineMediaObject not available: see fulltext.]) and krypton ([InlineMediaObject not available: see fulltext.]). We detail the event selections of high-energy alpha particles and decay-specific delayed coincidences. We derive distributions of the individual radionuclides inside the detector and quantify their abundances during the main three science runs of the experiment over a period of ∼4years, from January 2010 to January 2014. We compare our results to external measurements of radon emanation and krypton concentr…

Testing the Sobolev property with a single test plan

2020

We prove that in a vast class of metric measure spaces (namely, those whose associated Sobolev space is separable) the following property holds: a single test plan can be used to recover the minimal weak upper gradient of any Sobolev function. This means that, in order to identify which are the exceptional curves in the weak upper gradient inequality, it suffices to consider the negligible sets of a suitable Borel measure on curves, rather than the ones of the $p$-modulus. Moreover, on $\sf RCD$ spaces we can improve our result, showing that the test plan can be also chosen to be concentrated on an equi-Lipschitz family of curves.

Generalized heat equation and transitions between different heat-transport regimes in narrow stripes

2019

Abstract In the framework of weakly nonlocal thermodynamic theory, in this paper we derive a nonlocal and nonlinear heat-transport equation beyond the Fourier law by means of thermodynamic considerations in agreement with the second law. The obtained equation describes the transitions among different heat-transport regimes. The stability of the solution of that equation is also analyzed in a special case.

Tra AGCM e ABF il Collegio Coordinamento sceglie il non liquet

2023

L’autore analizza la figura dell’arbitro bancario finanziario, il quale pur non essendo né un giudice né un arbitro, è chiamato in una certa misura a comportarsi “come se fosse tale”, ossia a decidere, secondo diritto, sulla domanda proposta dal cliente. Si sofferma, pertanto, sul principio espresso dal Collegio di Coordinamento dell’ABF con la pronuncia n.2460/2023 in materia di rapporti tra provvedimento sanzionatorio dell’AGCM, in materie diverse dagli illeciti “anti-trust”, disciplinati dal d.lgs. 3/2017. Conclude che, qualora l’accertamento dell’AGCM non sia ancora definitivo, l’arbitro bancario finanziario, come a fortiori il giudice, resta libero di accertare autonomamente la condott…

Predictors for Therapy Response to Intrathecal Corticosteroid Therapy in Multiple Sclerosis

2019

\(\bf Objective:\) The autoimmune disease Multiple Sclerosis (MS) represents a heterogeneous disease pattern with an individual course that may lead to permanent disability. In addition to immuno-modulating therapies patients benefit from symptomatic approaches like intrathecal corticosteroid therapy (ICT), which is frequently applied in a growing number of centers in Germany. ICT reduces spasticity, which elongates patient's walking distance and speed, thus improves quality of life. \(\bf Methods:\) In our study we set out to investigate cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) parameters and clinical predictors for response to ICT. Therefore, we analyzed 811 CSF samples collected from 354 patients over …

Cognitive reserve and cognitive performance of patients with focal frontal lesions

2017

The Cognitive reserve (CR) hypothesis was put forward to account for the variability in cognitive performance of patients with similar degrees of brain pathology. Compensatory neural activity within the frontal lobes has often been associated with CR. For the first time we investigated the independent effects of two CR proxies, education and NART IQ, on measures of executive function, fluid intelligence, speed of information processing, verbal short term memory (vSTM), naming, and perception in a sample of 86 patients with focal, unilateral frontal lesions and 142 healthy controls. We fitted multiple linear regression models for each of the cognitive measures and found that only NART IQ pre…
