Ballistic protons in incoherent exclusive vector meson production as a measure of rare parton fluctuations at an Electron-Ion Collider
2014
We argue that the proton multiplicities measured in Roman pot detectors at an electron ion collider can be used to determine centrality classes in incoherent diffractive scattering. Incoherent diffraction probes the fluctuations in the interaction strengths of multi-parton Fock states in the nuclear wavefunctions. In particular, the saturation scale that characterizes this multi-parton dynamics is significantly larger in central events relative to minimum bias events. As an application, we study the centrality dependence of incoherent diffractive vector meson production. We identify an observable which is simultaneously very sensitive to centrality triggered parton fluctuations and insensit…
Roman Pottery from Lilybaeum. Some remarks on imported products and transmarine contacts
2020
This paper shall focus on the pottery of the excavations at Marsala, in the s.c. 'Zona Mura'. Imported fine tableware was mostly produced in North Africa, although its types were widespread in the western Mediterranean from the middle Imperial period to at least the 5th century. Furthermore, there is a considerable amount of fragments of cooking pots among the catalogued material. The considerable presence of Pantellerian Ware is likely due to the trade routes between northern Tunisia and western Sicily.
Thermae Himeraeae (Sicilia) e il suo hinterland: dalla documentazione ceramica alle dinamiche del popolamento in età imperiale
2014
This paper presents the archaeological and archaeometric results about roman amphorae, coarse/cooking wares and TSA from Termini Imerese (NW Sicily), and the relationships with distribution of same pottery in the hinterland of ancient city, where in the last thirty years the Dept. of Cultural Heritage of University of Palermo have carried out extensive surveys (San Leonardo, Torto and Northern Imera valleys). The research starts up typological and archaeometric studies published in the nineties of last century, now part of a new interdisciplinary program with CNR-IBAM (Catania) and CNRS (Aix-en-Provence). A good documentation of African amphorae, coarse/cooking wares, produced both in Byzac…
