LA SENTINELLA GLOBALE. I campi elettromagnetici del MUOS di Niscemi e i loro effetti.
2017
Il MUOS (Mobile User Objective System), un radar installato in Sicilia proprio all’interno della riserva “sughereta di Niscemi”, è una delle quattro sentinelle del sistema globale che la Us Navy ha realizzato nei vari angoli del mondo per tenere sott’occhio tutto il pianeta. La storia di questo impianto è fatta di promesse non mantenute, di interventi politici pro MUOS poi sconfessati dalla magistratura, di proteste organizzate nel tentativo di interloquire con quei poteri, che pure erano sembrati disponibili. Al fondo delle azioni del movimento NO MUOS, che qui vengono ricordate insieme all’analogo caso di Radio Vaticana che all’inizio degli anni Duemila scosse il mondo politico italiano, …

Enhancing Optomechanical Coupling via the Josephson Effect
2013
Cavity optomechanics is showing promise for studying quantum mechanics in large systems. However, smallness of the radiation-pressure coupling is a serious hindrance. Here we show how the charge tuning of the Josephson inductance in a single-Cooper-pair transistor (SCPT) can be exploited to arrange a strong radiation pressure -type coupling $g_0$ between mechanical and microwave resonators. In a certain limit of parameters, such a coupling can also be seen as a qubit-mediated coupling of two resonators. We show that this scheme allows reaching extremely high $g_0$. Contrary to the recent proposals for exploiting the non-linearity of a large radiation pressure coupling, the main non-linearit…
Multipactor radiation analysis within a waveguide region based on a frequency-domain representation of the dynamics of charged particles
2009
[EN] A technique for the accurate computation of the electromagnetic fields radiated by a charged particle moving within a parallel-plate waveguide is presented. Based on a transformation of the time-varying current density of the particle into a time-harmonic current density, this technique allows the evaluation of the radiated electromagnetic fields both in the frequency and time domains, as well as in the near- and far-field regions. For this purpose, several accelerated versions of the parallel-plate Green's function in the frequency domain have been considered. The theory has been successfully applied to the multipactor discharge occurring within a two metal-plates region. The proposed…
Extremely low-frequency magnetic fields and survival from childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia: an international follow-up study
2012
A previous US study reported poorer survival in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) exposed to extremely low-frequency magnetic fields (ELF–MF) above 0.3 μT, but based on small numbers. Data from 3073 cases of childhood ALL were pooled from prospective studies conducted in Canada, Denmark, Germany, Japan, UK and US to determine death or relapse up to 10 years from diagnosis. Adjusting for known prognostic factors, we calculated hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for overall survival and event-free survival for ELF–MF exposure categories and by 0.1 μT increases. The HRs by 0.1 μT increases were 1.00 (CI, 0.93–1.07) for event-free survival analysis and 1.04 (CI…
Low-lying electromagnetic transition strengths in 180 Pt
2018
Lifetime measurements have been performed using the 98 Mo ( 86 Kr , 4 n ) 180 Pt reaction at a beam energy of 380 MeV, and the recoil distance Doppler-shift method. In a second experiment the 168 Yb ( 16 O , 4 n ) 180 Pt reaction at a beam energy of 88 MeV using the Ge-gated γ − γ fast timing technique was used to determine lifetimes. Lifetimes of the four lowest yrast states of 180 Pt have been determined. The experimental data are compared to calculations within the framework of the interacting boson model and the general collective model. Both models predict a deformed ground state and are consistent with all the remaining experimental results. peerReviewed
β-decay rates of 115,117Rh into 115,117Pd isotopes in the microscopic interacting boson-fermion model
2020
The structure of odd-A 115,117Rh and 115,117Pd isotopes is studied by means of the neutron-proton interacting boson-fermion model (IBFM-2). JP=12+ quantum number assignment for the 115,117Pd ground states is critically discussed and the predicted energy levels are compared to the existing experimental data. The resulting nuclear wave functions are used to compute the β-decay ft values of the transitions from 115,117Rh to 115,117Pd in the microscopic IBFM-2 and the results compared with the data. peerReviewed
Chirality of 135 Nd reexamined : Evidence for multiple chiral doublet bands
2019
One new pair of positive-parity chiral doublet bands have been identified in the odd-A nucleus 135Nd which together with the previously reported negative-parity chiral doublet bands constitute a third case of multiple chiral doublet (MχD) bands in the A ≈ 130 mass region. The properties of the MχD bands are well reproduced by constrained covariant density functional theory and particle rotor model calculations. The newly observed MχD bands in 135Nd represents an important milestone in supporting the existence of MχD in nuclei. peerReviewed
Restoring the valence-shell stabilization in 140Nd
2020
A projectile Coulomb-excitation experiment was performed at the radioactive-ion beam facility HIE-ISOLDE at CERN to obtain $E2$ and $M1$ transition matrix elements of $^{140}$Nd using the multistep Coulomb-excitation code GOSIA. The absolute $M1$ strengths, $\textrm{B}(M1;2^+_2→2^+_1)=0.033(8)μ^2_N,\textrm{B}(M1;2^+_3→2^+_1)=0.26^{+0.11}_{−0.10}μ^2_N$, and $\textrm{B}(M1;2^+_4→2^+_1)<0.04μ^2_{\textrm{N}}$, identify the $2^+_3$ state as the main fragment of the one-quadrupole-phonon proton-neutron mixed-symmetry state of $^{140}$Nd. The degree of F-spin mixing in $^{140}$Nd was quantified with the determination of the mixing matrix element $V_{\textrm{F−mix}}<7^{+13}_{−7}$keV.
