On the measured lifetime of light hypernuclei 3ΛH and 4ΛH
2014
A statistical combination of the experimental lifetime estimations available in the literatures is performed for 3 Λ H and 4 Λ H, including several recent measurements. The combined average values of the lifetime for 3 Λ H and 4 Λ H are respectively 216−16+19 ps and 192−18+20 ps with a reduced χ2 of 0.89 and 0.48. A new insight into the lifetime estimation of the HypHI Phase 0 experiment by a Bayesian approach is also presented. In this approach, several different prior distributions including the combination of previous lifetime data and a Jeffrey prior are used. The principal mode and the smallest credible interval at 68% of the posterior distribution, given by the prior belief of the pre…

Triangle singularity mechanism for the pp→π+d fusion reaction
2021
We develop a model for the $pp\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}d$ reaction based on the $pp\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Delta}}(1232)N$ transition followed by $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Delta}}(1232)\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\pi}{N}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ decay and posterior fusion of $N{N}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ to give the deuteron. We show that the triangle diagram depicting this process develops a triangle singularity leading to a large cross section of this reaction compared to ordinary fusion reactions. The results of the calculation also show that the process is largely dominated by the $pp$ system in $L=2$ and $S=0$, which transfers $J=2$ to the final ${\ensu…
Nonlocally-induced (fractional) bound states: Shape analysis in the infinite Cauchy well
2015
Fractional (L\'{e}vy-type) operators are known to be spatially nonlocal. This becomes an issue if confronted with a priori imposed exterior Dirichlet boundary data. We address spectral properties of the prototype example of the Cauchy operator $(-\Delta )^{1/2}$ in the interval $D=(-1,1) \subset R$, with a focus on functional shapes of lowest eigenfunctions and their fall-off at the boundaries of $D$. New high accuracy formulas are deduced for approximate eigenfunctions. We analyze how their shape reproduction fidelity is correlated with the evaluation finesse of the corresponding eigenvalues.

Localized forms of the LBB condition and a posteriori estimates for incompressible media problems
2018
The inf–sup (or LBB) condition plays a crucial role in analysis of viscous flow problems and other problems related to incompressible media. In this paper, we deduce localized forms of this condition that contain a collection of local constants associated with subdomains instead of one global constant for the whole domain. Localized forms of the LBB inequality imply estimates of the distance to the set of divergence free fields. We use them and deduce fully computable bounds of the distance between approximate and exact solutions of boundary value problems arising in the theory of viscous incompressible fluids. The estimates are valid for approximations, which satisfy the incompressibility …
The Wage Curve, Once More with Feeling: Bayesian Model Averaging of Heckit Models
2018
The sensitivity of the wage curve to sample-selection and model uncertainty was evaluated with Bayesian methods. More than 8000 Heckit wage curves were estimated using data from the 2017 household survey of Bolivia. After averaging the estimates with the posterior probability of each model being true, the wage curve elasticity in Bolivia is close to -0.01. This result suggests that in this country the wage curve is inelastic and does not follow the international statistical regularity of wage curves.
TMS activation of interhemispheric pathways between the posterior parietal cortex and the contralateral motor cortex
2009
Using a twin coil transcranial magnetic stimulation (tc-TMS) approach we have previously demonstrated that facilitation may be detected in the primary motor cortex (M1) following stimulation over the ipsilateral caudal intraparietal sulcus (cIPS). Here we tested the interhemispheric interactions between the IPS and the contralateral motor cortex (M1). We found that conditioning the right cIPS facilitated contralateral M1 when the conditioning stimulus had an intensity of 90% resting motor threshold (RMT) but not at 70% or 110% RMT. Facilitation was maximal when the interstimulus interval (ISI) between cIPS and M1 was 6 or 12 ms. These facilitatory effects were mediated by interactions with …
MR IMAGING AND HORMONAL FINDINGS IN PATIENTS WITH IDIOPATHIC GROWTH HORMONU DEFICIENCY
1993
Until the introduction of MR imaging in neuroradiological diagnostic, diagnosis of the ecotopic posterior pituitary lobe, first described by the pathologist Priesel in 1920, was rare. Recently it has increasingly been diagnosed by MR in patients whose anamnesis showed birth trauma. We performed MR of the hypothalamic-pituitary region in 17 patients with idiopathic growth hormone deficiency. 8 patients had additional deficiencies of the anterior pituitary lobe whereas the function of the posterior lobe of the hypophysis was normal in all patients. Indications of birth trauma were present in only 2 patients. The cause of anterior lobe insufficiency was determined by MR in 8 patients with panh…
Risk perception, knowledge, prevention, information sources and efficacy beliefs related to Covid-19
2020
Abstract Background Sars-Cov-2 is one of the latest examples of an emerging infectious disease challenging the world and it is the third case, in just two decades, of “spillover”. In light of the recent outbreak (Italy is in 2nd position), it is important to evaluate people risk perception and to support the Health Authority with effective communicative actions to avoid the spread of “infodemia”/alarmism. The aim of this study is a) to study levels of perceived threat, risk perception, severity and comparative vulnerability b) to compare risk perception with other communicable/not communicable diseases; c) provide information to increase awareness/ knowledge of the disease. Methods We perfo…
