Design, construction and cooling system performance of a prototype cryogenic stopping cell for the Super-FRS at FAIR

2015

A cryogenic stopping cell for stopping energetic radioactive ions and extracting them as a low energy beam was developed. This first ever cryogenically operated stopping cell serves as prototype device for the Low-Energy Branch of the Super-FRS at FAIR. The cell has a stopping volume that is 1 m long and 25 cm in diameter. Ions are guided by a DC field along the length of the stopping cell and by a combined RF and DC fields provided by an RE carpet at the exit-hole side. The ultra-high purity of the stopping gas required for optimum ion survival is reached by cryogenic operation. The design considerations and construction of the cryogenic stopping cell, as well as some performance character…

Measurement of nanoparticle mass distributions by laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry.

2011

In this paper, access to the mass distribution analysis of nanoparticles is described based on laser desorption/ionization and time of flight mass spectrometry. Two examples are given, demonstrating the accurate mass distribution analysis of nanoparticles fabricated both ex situ and in situ during the laser-assisted desorption process. The potentials and the limitations of the method are discussed, with special emphasis on carbonaceous clusters and molecules.

Environmental and food applications of LC-tandem mass spectrometry in pesticide-residue analysis: An overview

2003

An overview is given on pesticide-residue determination in environmental and food samples by liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS). Pesticides comprise a large number of substances that belong to many completely different chemical groups, the only common characteristic is that they are effective against pests. They still constitute a challenge in MS because there is no collective pathway for fragmentation. A brief introduction to the theory of tandem MS permits a discussion of which parameters influence the ionization efficiency when the ions are subjected to different actions. Emphasis is placed on the different tandem MS instruments: triple and ion-trap quad…

Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry to identify contaminants in water: an insight on environment…

2013

Ultra-high pressure liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC-QqTOF-MS) acquiring full scan MS data for quantification, and automatic data dependent information product ion spectra (IDA-MS/MS) without any predefinition of the ions by the user was checked for identifying organic contaminants in water samples. The use of a database with more than 2000 compounds achieved high confidence results for a wide number of contaminants based upon retention time, accurate mass, isotopic pattern and MS/MS library searching. More than 20 contaminants, mostly pharmaceuticals, but also mycotoxins and polyphenols were unambiguously identified. Furthermore, the combination of s…

An empirically grounded agent based model for modeling directs, conflict detection and resolution operations in air traffic management

2017

We present an agent based model of the Air Traffic Management socio-technical complex system that aims at modeling the interactions between aircrafts and air traffic controllers at a tactical level. The core of the model is given by the conflict detection and resolution module and by the directs module. Directs are flight shortcuts that are given by air controllers to speed up the passage of an aircraft within a certain airspace and therefore to facilitate airline operations. Conflicts resolution between flight trajectories can arise during the en-route phase of each flight due to both not detailed flight trajectory planning or unforeseen events that perturb the planned flight plan. Our mod…

The red tooth hypothesis: A computational model of predator-prey relations, protean escape behavior and sexual reproduction

2009

This paper presents an extension of the Red Queen Hypothesis (hereafter, RQH) that we call the Red Tooth Hypothesis (RTH). This hypothesis suggests that predator-prey relations may play a role in the maintenance of sexual reproduction in many higher animals. RTH is based on an interaction between learning on the part of predators and evolution on the part of prey. We present a simple predator-prey computer simulation that illustrates the effects of this interaction. This simulation suggests that the optimal escape strategy from the prey's standpoint would be to have a small number of highly reflexive, largely innate (and, therefore, very fast) escape patterns, but that would also be unlearn…

effects of early combined pheromone and food exposure on the behavioral development of adult drosophila melanogaster

2023

In Drosophila melanogaster, pheromonal communication is mainly mediated through sex-specific cuticular hydrocarbons (and derived compounds) and the male lipidic pheromone 11 - cis - Vaccényl Acétate (cVA). When deposited together on the feeding substrate they attract conspecifics males and females, promoting mating and collective behaviors. Initially described as stereotyped, recent findings showed that adult response to pheromones could be plastic and depend on the juvenile experience of an individual (i.e. imprinting). In this context, we studied cVA imprinting through its aggregative effect in individuals whose imprinting has been manipulated.The first goal, behavioral, was to study long…

High resolution 80Se(n,γ) cross section measurement at CERN n_TOF and development of the novel i-TED detection system

2022

El proceso (-s) de captura lenta de neutrones es responsable de la formación de la mitad de los elementos más pesados ​​que el hierro en el universo. A pesar de la larga escala de tiempo de este proceso, la larga vida media de algunos isótopos inestables a lo largo del flujo de reacción del proceso-s crea puntos de ramificación que conducen a una división de la ruta de la nucleosíntesis. 79Se (t1/2 = 3.27 x 10^5 y) representa uno de los núcleos ramificados-s más relevantes y debatidos por dos razones principales. Por un lado, la existencia de estados excitados de baja energía en el 79Se, cuya población puede variar con la temperatura del medio estelar, hace que el patrón de abundancia local…

SCELTA E APPLICAZIONE DI NUOVI STANDARD DI MANOVRA NELLE FASI DI DECOLLO ED ATTERRAGGIO DELL’ELICOTTERO - MODELLO E SPERIMENTAZIONE -

Una zona o un ambiente ha tipicamente un livello sonoro che lo caratterizza e ci si aspetta che le variazioni di quell’ambiente in equilibrio dovute ad un evento acustico insolito alterino le sensazioni delle persone in quel contesto. Non ci si può riferire al buon senso per valutare se disturbiamo o danneggiamo il prossimo, è necessario individuare le fonti di rumore e valutare l’impatto ambientale tramite indagini di tipo qualitativo e fasi sperimentali di misura. Lo studio condotto ha correlato il dato qualitativo a quello quantitativo sia in ambito predittivo che tramite rilievi sul campo. Gli scopi e gli obiettivi sono incentrati a: ricercare una simulazione coerente di propagazione de…
