Causality, non-locality and three-body Casimir–Polder energy between three ground-state atoms
2006
The problem of relativistic causality in the time-dependent three-body Casimir–Polder interaction energy between three atoms, initially in their bare ground-state, is discussed. It is shown that the non-locality of the spatial correlations of the electromagnetic field emitted by the atoms during their dynamical self-dressing may become manifest in the dynamical three-body Casimir–Polder interaction energy between the three atoms.
Effects of a uniform acceleration on atom–field interactions
2014
We review some quantum electrodynamical effects related to the uniform acceleration of atoms in vacuum. After discussing the energy level shifts of a uniformly accelerated atom in vacuum, we investigate the atom-wall Casimir-Polder force for accelerated atoms, and the van der Waals/Casimir-Polder interaction between two accelerated atoms. The possibility of detecting the Unruh effect through these phenomena is also discussed in detail.
van der Waals interactions between excited atoms in generic environments
2015
We consider the the van der Waals force involving excited atoms in general environments, constituted by magnetodielectric bodies. We develop a dynamical approach studying the dynamics of the atoms and the field, mutually coupled. When only one atom is excited, our dynamical theory suggests that for large distances the van der Waals force acting on the ground-state atom is monotonic, while the force acting in the excited atom is spatially oscillating. We show how this latter force can be related to the known oscillating Casimir--Polder force on an excited atom near a (ground-state) body. Our force also reveals a population-induced dynamics: for times much larger that the atomic lifetime the …
The Europe of “decentralised courts”. The construction of the political image of the Bourbons of Italy and Spain
2022
Nel Regno di Sicilia negli anni Settanta del Settecento Ferdinando di Borbone, in seguito all'espulsione dei Gesuiti e grazie al deciso intervento dell'élite locale, procedette a ricondurre i reperti archeologici nella categoria degli interessi statali. Il re proibì l'esportazione non autorizzata dei reperti e procedette, sull'esempio napoletano, all'organizzazione della Regia Custodia, un piano di custodia monumentale e archeologica. Nel dicembre 1798 Ferdinando e Maria Carolina trasferirono poi la corte a Palermo, avviando la costruzione di riserve di caccia sul modello napoletano, come Ficuzza, e promuovendo nuove aree a fini produttivi. In questo piano edilizio spicca la Casina cinese n…
Optomechanical Rydberg-atom excitation via dynamic Casimir-Polder coupling
2014
We study the optomechanical coupling of a oscillating effective mirror with a Rydberg atomic gas, mediated by the dynamical atom-mirror Casimir-Polder force. This coupling may produce a near-field resonant atomic excitation whose probability scales as $\propto (d^2\;a\;n^4\;t)^2/z_0^8$, where $z_0$ is the average atom-surface distance, $d$ the atomic dipole moment, $a$ the mirror's effective oscillation amplitude, $n$ the initial principal quantum number, and $t$ the time. We propose an experimental configuration to realize this system with a cold atom gas trapped at a distance $\sim 2\cdot10 \, \mu$m from a semiconductor substrate, whose dielectric constant is periodically driven by an ext…

Case studies - Research and technological solutions to prevent sand production in the gas wells from the Getic Depression
2021
A frequent challenge encountered in the exploitation of mature gas fields located in the Getic Depression is sand production. Causes of sand production are mainly related to degree of rock consolidation, lithology, increasing water production and production rates. The effects of sand production are multiple such us low productivity of the gas wells, accumulation into the surface equipment, erosion of downhole and surface equipment, plugging the perforation zone and casing damage. The current paper will address the sand production- challenges and new perspectives in remedial work of wells which are producing from gas reservoirs located in Getic Depression. The article presents through some c…

JH-Operators and Occasionally Weakly g-Biased Pairs in Fuzzy Symmetric Spaces
2013
We introduce the notions of $\mathcal{JH}$-operators and occasionally weakly $g$-biased mappings in fuzzy symmetric spaces to prove common fixed point theorems for self-mappings satisfying a generalized mixed contractive condition. We also prove analogous results for two pairs of $\mathcal{JH}$-operators by assuming symmetry only on the set of points of coincidence. These results unify, extend and complement many results existing in the recent literature. We give also an application of our results to product spaces.
Common fixed point theorems for families of occasionally weakly compatible mappings
2011
We prove some common fixed point theorems in probabilistic semi-metric spaces for families of occasionally weakly compatible mappings. We also give a common fixed point theorem for mappings satisfying an integral-type implicit relation.
