Scaler mode technique for the ARGO-YBJ detector
2008
The ARGO-YBJ experiment has been designed to study the Extensive Air Showers with an energy threshold lower than that of the existing arrays by exploiting the high altitude location(4300 m a.s.l. in Tibet, P.R. China) and the full ground plane coverage. The lower energy limit of the detector (E $\sim$ 1 GeV) is reached by the scaler mode technique, i.e. recording the counting rate at fixed time intervals. At these energies, transient signals due to local (e.g. Forbush Decreases) and cosmological (e.g. Gamma Ray Bursts) phenomena are expected as a significant variation of the counting rate compared to the background. In this paper the performance of the ARGO-YBJ detector operating in scaler …
Giuseppe Velasco
2012
Lo studio indaga la figura di Giuseppe Velasco, eminente esponente del Neoclassicismo pittorico dell'Italia meridionale. Dopo aver esaminato la formazione dell’artista palermitano, si è posta l’attenzione sui contributi più importanti ed originali relativamente all’Orto botanico, alla Palazzina Cinese, a Palazzo dei Normanni senza, naturalmente, trascurare i suoi interventi richiestigli dalla committenza ecclesiastica e civile. Intorno all’Orto botanico, ci si è soffermati sui monocromati a tempera di chiara ispirazione mitologica con particolare riferimento alla figura di Esculapio e della Dea Flora. Tali pitture, afferenti alla sua attività artistica matura, risultano preziose e raffinate…
La novela gráfica como recurso didáctico en tiempos de pandemia: una propuesta intercultural para dinamizar la asignatura de Conversación del Grado e…
2022
El azote pandémico ha marcado un implacable punto de inflexión en la escena educativa. Concretamente, en la R. P. China, contexto en el que se inserta la presente experiencia, la docencia en línea ha pasado a ser la tónica de una parte significativa del profesorado hispanohablante sin opción de regreso. Dicha coyuntura, además de dificultar la enseñanza de una asignatura eminentemente comunicativa como Conversación, plantea la imperiosa necesidad de redefinir el proceso didáctico al abrazo de propuestas que, por un lado, comulguen con la identidad del alumnado meta y, por otro, estimulen su participación activa en el aula virtual. El presente artículo contextualiza y desgrana la propuesta d…
Gravitational-wave Constraints on the Equatorial Ellipticity of Millisecond Pulsars
2020
We present a search for continuous gravitational waves from five radio pulsars, comprising three recycled pulsars (PSR J0437-4715, PSR J0711-6830, and PSR J0737-3039A) and two young pulsars: the Crab pulsar (J0534+2200) and the Vela pulsar (J0835-4510). We use data from the third observing run of Advanced LIGO and Virgo combined with data from their first and second observing runs. For the first time, we are able to match (for PSR J0437-4715) or surpass (for PSR J0711-6830) the indirect limits on gravitational-wave emission from recycled pulsars inferred from their observed spin-downs, and constrain their equatorial ellipticities to be less than 10-8. For each of the five pulsars, we perfor…
Observability and diagnostics in the X-ray band of shock-cloud interactions in supernova remnants
2010
X-ray emitting features originating from the interaction of supernova shock waves with small interstellar gas clouds are revealed in many X-ray observations of evolved supernova remnants (e.g. Cygnus Loop and Vela), but their interpretation is not straightforward. We develop a self-consistent method for the analysis and interpretation of shock-cloud interactions in middle-aged supernova remnants, which can provide the key parameters of the system and the role of relevant physical effects like the thermal conduction, without the need to run ad-hoc numerical simulations and to bother of morphology details. We explore all the possible values of the shock speed and cloud density contrast releva…
A Closed Book: Opacity of the Human Self in Mullā Ṣadrā
2014
Mullā Ṣadrā Shīrāzī (d. 1636) subscribes at large to the Avicennian view according to which the human subject is always and fully aware of herself. At the same time, his eschatology hinges on the Qur’ānic motive of the soul as a closed book that is first opened on the Final Day, that is, on the idea that each soul’s share in the afterlife should be understood as the full revelation of the soul’s true nature to itself. The two ideas thus have seemingly contradictory entailments: the soul is fully aware of and transparent to itself, but at the same time it has aspects that can remain opaque to it, at least in this life. The task of this paper is to investigate whether Ṣadrā can coherently hol…

La narrativa vanguardista de José López Rubio: tres novelas inéditas.
2008
El alma en un hilo, El desaparecido y Un hombre acostado son novelas inéditas escritas por José López Rubio entre 1928 y 1930. Las tres obras, que ahora se sacan a la luz y se dan a conocer por primera vez, son editadas en este volúmen con especial cuidado. Junto a la edición de los textos, que presenta un doble aparato de notas, textuales a pie de página y explicativas a final del texto, la autora proporciona además un estudio profundizado de estas prosas, dando cuenta de los particulares rasgos que las incluyen dentro de la narrativa española de vanguardia de los años veinte: alejamiento de la realidad y de la mímesis descriptiva, mayor importancia concedida al mundo interior de los perso…
