Extensible Wind Towers
2014
The diffusion of wind energy generators is restricted by their strong landscape impact. The PERIMA project is about the development of an extensible wind tower able to support a wind machine for several hundred kW at its optimal working height, up to more than 50 m. The wind tower has a telescopic structure, made by several tubes located inside each other with their axis in vertical direction. The lifting force is given by a jack-up system confined inside a shaft, drilled below the ground level. In the retracted tower configuration, at rest, tower tubes are hidden in the foundation of the telescopic structure, located below the ground surface, and the wind machine is the only emerging part …
A new automated plunger for cryopreparation of proteins in defined - even oxygen free - atmospheres
2009
We study the structure and function of hemocyanins. They are giant extracellular oxygen carriers in the hemolymph of many molluscs and arthropods. Since some of these blue, copper-containing proteins show the highest cooperativity in nature (h = 10), one of our goals is to understand the chemomechanical interaction between the different substructures during allosteric oxygen binding.
A NEW PLUNGER DEVICE FOR INVESTIGATING THE EFFECTS OF DEFORMATION ON PROTON EMISSION RATES VIA LIFETIME MEASUREMENTS
2013
A new plunger device has been designed and built to measure the lifetimes of unbound states in exotic nuclei beyond the proton drip-line. The device is designed to work in both vacuum and dilute-gas environments made possible through the introduction of a lowvoltage piezoelectric motors. The differential plunger for unbound nuclear states, DPUNS, will be used in conjunction with the gas-filled separator RITU and the vacuum separator MARA at the accelerator laboratory of the University of Jyvaskyla, Finland, to measure the lifetimes of excited states with low population cross-sections. This is achieved by eliminating the need for a carbon foil to isolate the helium gas of RITU from the beam …
A charge plunger device to measure the lifetimes of excited nuclear states where transitions are dominated by internal conversion
2020
A charge plunger device has been commissioned based on the DPUNS plunger (Taylor et al., 2013) using the in-flight mass separator MARA at the University of Jyväskylä. The 152Sm(32S,4n)180Pt reaction was used to populate excited states in 180Pt. A lifetime measurement of the 21+ state was performed by applying the charge plunger technique, which relies on the detection of the charge state-distribution of recoils rather than the detection of the emitted γ rays. This state was a good candidate to test the charge plunger technique as it has a known lifetime and depopulates through a converted transition that competes strongly with γ-ray emission. The lifetime of the 21+ state was measured to be…
Hitler A Bayreuth. Storia di un'amicizia (1923-1940)
2013
Il saggio si sofferma sulle vite parallele di Winifred Majorie Williams (moglie di Sigfried Wagner e dopo la sua morte "Signora di Bayreuth") e Adolf Hitler, grande ammiratore dell'opera wagneriana e "amico" di famiglia della famiglia Wagner a partire dalla fine degli anni Venti. Il testo ripercorre le tappe del rapporto personale fra Winifred Wagner e Adolf Hitler, rievocando al tempo stesso alcuni episodi della biografia hitleriana legati al Festival di Bayreuth.

Yliopistojen strategisen kansainvälistymisen myötä englannin asema lingua francana kaikilla akateemisen työn osa-alueilla (tutkimus, opettaminen, palvelut ja hallinto) ja tieteenaloilla on voimistunut. Toisaalta myös monikielisyys on perinteisesti ollut hallitseva ideologia akateemisissa piireissä, sillä useiden kielten osaamista pidetään mm. yhtenä sivistyksen mittarina. Monikielisyyttä ja kielellistä monimuotoisuutta pyritään tukemaan myös esimerkiksi EU:n virallisissa dokumenteissa, ja vieraiden kielten taito on korostuneessa asemassa myös työelämän kielitaitotarpeita arvioivissa tutkimuksissa. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena on selvittää, onko Suomen yliopistojen henkilökunnan mielestä …

"Tutto quel che è, finisce". Guida a "L'Anello del Nibelungo" di Richard Wagner
2017
Il volume costituisce una guida completa e aggiornata al sistema drammaturgico-musicale wagneriano, alla sua ricchezza concettuale e ai presupposti estetici, filosofici e politici che ne furono alla base. È costituito da un’ampia introduzione dedicata alle suddette premesse (con numerose citazioni dagli scritti di Wagner), seguita da un ‘racconto’ dettagliato delle vicende – innanzi tutto "musicali" – dei quattro drammi, in altrettanti capitoli. La trattazione si avvale degli apporti ermeneutici più significativi, da quelli storici di Nietzsche, George Bernard Shaw, Thomas Mann, T. W. Adorno a quelli più recenti. Corredata degli esempi musicali relativi a tutti i Leitmotive e di tavole che …
