Performance Enhancement of a Small Animal Positron Emission Tomograph based on Continuous Crystals and Silicon Photomultipliers
2017
La tomografía por emisión de positrones (PET, por sus siglas en inglés) es una técnica de Medicina Nuclear que permite obtener de manera no invasiva imágenes funcionales “in vivo” marcando un compuesto orgánico con un emisor de positrones. Los tomógrafos PET requieren un alta resolución espacial y sensibilidad para estimar con precisión la distribución del radiotrazador en el animal. Frente a los bloques pixelados comúnmente utilizados en PET, los detectores que consisten en la combinación de cristales continuos acoplados a fotodetectores segmentados pueden ofrecer una mayor eficiencia y una alta resolución espacial. Esta última depende de la precisión de los algoritmos de determinación de …
Intertekstuaalisuus ja sen funktiot Carlos Ruiz Zafónin teoksessa El juego del ángel - Enkelipeli
2015
Tutkielman aiheena on intertekstuaalisuus Carlos Ruiz Zafónin teoksessa El juego del ángel (2008, suom. Enkelipeli, 2009). Teos rakentuu useiden intertekstien, kuten klassikkokirjallisuuden (Dracula, Faust, Frankenstein, Saatana saapuu Moskovaan, Tohtori Faustus sekä Tohtori Jekyll ja herra Hyde), myyttien (Faust- ja kristinuskon paholaismyytti), kirjallisten henkilöhahmojen ja kirjallisuuden lajien kuten gotiikan, fantasian ja salapoliisiromaanin varaan. Tutkimuskysymyksenä on, mitkä ovat teoksessa esiintyvien intertekstien funktiot. Tutkielma pohjautuu erilaisiin intertekstuaalisuuden teorioihin, joista tärkeimmäksi nousevat Christian Morarun sekä Wolfgang G. Müllerin teoriat. Christian M…
Highly-parallelized simulation of a pixelated LArTPC on a GPU
2023
The rapid development of general-purpose computing on graphics processing units (GPGPU) is allowing the implementation of highly-parallelized Monte Carlo simulation chains for particle physics experiments. This technique is particularly suitable for the simulation of a pixelated charge readout for time projection chambers, given the large number of channels that this technology employs. Here we present the first implementation of a full microphysical simulator of a liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC) equipped with light readout and pixelated charge readout, developed for the DUNE Near Detector. The software is implemented with an end-to-end set of GPU-optimized algorithms. The alg…
El sepulcro del Venerable Domingo Anadón en el convento de Santo Domingo de Valencia (1609), obra genovesa encargo del Conde de Benavente = The Tomb …
2020
El presente texto confirma que el monumento funerario encargado en 1609 por Juan Alfonso Pimentel, conde-duque de Benavente a los genoveses Giuseppe Carlone y Oberto Casella fue para la sepultura del fraile Domingo Anadón en el convento de Santo Domingo de Valencia. Se analizan las vicisitudes de este sepulcro junto al de fray Juan Micó en la capilla de San Luis Beltrán del convento, en el marco de la llegada de piezas genovesas a España en época Moderna.AbstractThis text confirms that the funerary monument commissioned in 1609 by Juan Alfonso Pimentel, count-duke of Benavente to the genoese sculptors Giuseppe Carlone and Oberto Casella was for friar Domingo Anadon in the dominican convent …
Probabilità di fuga di "particelle" nucleari da corpi a simmetria sferica

Shape staggering of midshell mercury isotopes from in-source laser spectroscopy compared with density-functional-theory and Monte Carlo shell-model c…
2019
Neutron-deficient Hg177-185 isotopes were studied using in-source laser resonance-ionization spectroscopy at the CERN-ISOLDE radioactive ion-beam facility in an experiment combining different detection methods tailored to the studied isotopes. These include either α-decay tagging or multireflection time-of-flight gating for isotope identification. The endpoint of the odd-even nuclear shape staggering in mercury was observed directly by measuring for the first time the isotope shifts and hyperfine structures of Hg177-180. Changes in the mean-square charge radii for all mentioned isotopes, magnetic dipole, and electric quadrupole moments of the odd-A isotopes and arguments in favor of I=7/2 s…

Characterization of a cylindrical plastic β-detector with Monte Carlo simulations of optical photons
2017
In this work we report on the Monte Carlo study performed to understand and reproduce experimental measurements of a new plastic β-detector with cylindrical geometry. Since energy deposition simulations differ from the experimental measurements for such a geometry, we show how the simulation of production and transport of optical photons does allow one to obtain the shapes of the experimental spectra. Moreover, taking into account the computational effort associated with this kind of simulation, we develop a method to convert the simulations of energy deposited into light collected, depending only on the interaction point in the detector. This method represents a useful solution when extens…
Measurement of the average shape of longitudinal profiles of cosmic-ray air showers at the Pierre Auger Observatory
2019
The profile of the longitudinal development of showers produced by ultra-high energy cosmic rays carries information related to the interaction properties of the primary particles with atmospheric nuclei. In this work, we present the first measurement of the average shower profile in traversed atmospheric depth at the Pierre Auger Observatory. The shapes of profiles are well reproduced by the Gaisser-Hillas parametrization within the range studied, for E>10 17.8 eV .A detailed analysis of the systematic uncertainties is performed using ten years of data and a full detector simulation. The average shape is quantified using two variables related to the width and asymmetry of the profile, and …
L’istinto della bellezza. Carlo Scarpa a Palermo. Studi sullo Steri. 1972-1978
2022
Il volume indaga l’istinto di Carlo Scarpa (1906-1978) verso la bellezza. Da progettista, Santo Giunta si pone l’obiettivo di comprendere come il maestro veneziano, ritornando a Palermo agli inizi degli anni ‘70, sia riuscito a catturare, nella fisicità dello spazio costruito di palazzo Chiaromonte, detto Steri (Hosterium, palazzo fortificato), le relazioni essenziali tra questa architettura, opera trecentesca, e la città contemporanea. La chiave che l’autore ci offre per decifrare quest’opera di Scarpa è il cammino, l’immergersi passo dopo passo nell’architettura, in un percorso-discorso peripatetico. Il maestro veneziano, per lo Steri, ha innescato un processo di rivitalizzazione basato s…
